[ Ryuji had been doing so effin' well. People believed that he couldn't hide his secret so well, that he'd blow his cover and would need to hide and run away (again), but Ryuji was determined to prove them all wrong. There was going to be no ifs, ands, or buts here. Ryuji wasn't going to start a vampire panic in Tokyo.
Night school was a good idea. It started off with getting him out of his place and looking normal, with an added bonus of giving him a steady supply of possible food sources. He was always careful: wait for someone by themselves, compel them to pause for just a moment too long in a dark alley, and drink just enough to fill his tank. No need to drink anymore than that. Sure, he had to feed a little more often, but most vampires had evolved to the point that draining a person dry was just old-fashioned and barbaric.
But then everything changed when he met Ren.
He never expected to make a friend, let alone make a friend like Ren. He never seemed to notice how Ryuji was a little too pale, or how he could never hang out before sunset. Or if he did, he never said anything about it. It felt good, hanging out with him. Ryuji was starting to feel like he was really starting to belong. He spent more and more time with him and kind of forgot to feed.
For a while.
He was close to losing it, he could feel the urge rise up inside him. Every passing human looked so good, a body so full of blood. His fangs were starting to poke past his lips and he all but just bit into them to keep control over himself.
No, he can't do that.
But, he looks out of the corner of his eye at Ren. They were just hanging out after class, before Ren had to get back to his home. Maybe he could... If it's Ren, he probably won't drain him dry.
He clears his throat and gets Ren's attention, making sure to look him in the eye as he gets his compel power up and running ]

Say, Ren, why don't we go for a bit of a walk?
