Rayne wasn't expecting that to happen…not at all. As he heard Alex apologize, the older vampire was frantic, his mind slightly going in all directions as he went to leave the room. His body stood stiff in shock, and as he was about to speak he found no words. Something inside Rayne felt…like it was aching, and for some reason it was really bothering him.

After a few moments, he then walked out the doors, heading out to see if he could find his boyfriend. How stupid to be so rude..he could have at least explained it a little better. Although the moment Rayne stepped outside and saw Alex, someone had beat him to it.

Just as they had thought, Abigail was listening in, and the moment she heard Aleksander heading out, she followed until the young vampire stopped in his tracks. She slowed down, being very unhurried, careful, unknowing of Alex's emotions as she stopped the moment she stood behind him. Taking a soft breath in, Abigail closed her red eyes, speaking softly as the wind blew gently, her brown hair moving as she spoke.
"You have lots of potential. Rayne has been speaking highly of you for months, since he saw you in the alley, and recently when you had helped the people in the labs to escape." Opening her eyes, Abigail looked at Alex and smiled, although the expression seemed almost..foreign on her, as if she didn't know how to smile without forcing it onto her face. "Rayne and I don't want you to leave. The only thing I ask of you if you wish to live here, is that you help me gain your trust. And over these months, as I've been hearing the man behind me ramble on about you each moment he gets, I have a strong feeling that Rayne doesn't want you to leave either. Ultimately it's your decision, although you should know you are welcomed. We don't turn our backs on anyone, unless they turn their backs on us first."

Rayne glared at the woman's back, saying such things like that so openly. The conversations with her were just as a mother would have with her son, although once in a while Abigail brought up Alex, and they spoke of him. It wasn't like Rayne was literally rambling on like a school girl that had a crush. For the time being, he stood at the doors, his eyes on both figures, anxiously waiting to see what would happen without interrupting, no matter how badly he wanted to.
