“Freckles?” Tombs repeats his question as I stare at him in the hall.

I wanted to get the the bathroom and clean up before I saw him this morning but here I am, still in his shirt with messy bed hair. “Yes, I have some freckles. They even have names,” I joke about Marianne's insistence she name them all when I was young.

He shakes his head and frowns. “I have a few, from before, but you shouldn't have any.”

I shrug and head toward the bathroom. When I join him again, I enjoy an amazing breakfast with Tombs. “I have taken off the whole morning to help get you settled.” He says it is the first time he wasn't in his office at six a.m. His smile is infectious and we spend the whole meal talking about the one thing we have in common, books.

The rain pours down as I register for the Health Assurance program making everyone crowd inside. This is a time to change direction, so I want nothing to do with the security field. Tombs is helpful but keeps disappearing to talk to people, he knows everyone. There are so many options but I check the only job I understand. Bleeder, it's called. I will be taking monthly blood donations from humans and doing lab work. There seems to be more to it than that, I will be in classes for years just to get my license. “You'll work your way up the clearance levels by that time.” Tombs explains, “You'll be starting a residency on Monday, at the lowest level, of course.”

He hands me another paper for my pile while checking his watch. “I have another schedule for you, you'll need to come to my lab every Tuesday.”

“Right, you get to study me. Haven't you studied bleeders before?”

“It doesn't matter, you agreed. Remember?” A blond appears at Tomb's elbow. She is perfect, perfect hair, teeth, skin, posture. “Noir, this is Savy, she'll be your roommate and take over for me from here.” He leans in a little, “if that's alright?”

“Sure.” I smile and there is a awkward pause.

He looks at his feet smiling.“I will be sure to check on you later.” He walks away.

“Wow, what's up with you and Tombs?” Savy looks me up and down, I am still in yesterday's clothes.

I feel a blush coming on, remembering his unexpected kiss. “Nothing, we just met,” I smile big at her.

She laughs a little, “He says you know nothing about this city, but I didn't believe him.” I look at her full of confusion. “Let's just say, don't show so much of your teeth when you smile.” She whispers, “It means you want to have sex.”

I am appalled, to say the least. Embarrassed, mad! Tombs knew I had no clue but was returning my big grin. I stay closed lipped all the way to my new room. Savy, born Savannah Walters, talks non stop the whole way. She gives plenty of advice but also tells me all her personal problems along the way.
