Two days. A solid two days had passed and Marc only had two more days of his vacation left. They'd told him to go overseas for a week or so, get away from the hectic city. But his part of the city was warm and relaxing and calming, he didn't want to go anywhere. Maybe that was a good thing. He sat with Luca for about fifteen minutes three times for both days, taking his vitals---however many 'vitals' a vampire had---and making sure he was okay. He had been told once before that vampires often shut down to heal after an injury. He just wasn't sure how long that 'shut down' period was. Would it be weeks?

It was nearing noon when he checked back again, pushing open the door and finding Luca awake. It was so startling to him that he dropped his dampened rag, which he'd been using to gently wipe away the sweat that seemed to come with Luca's twitching nightmares. "Oh!" Marc doubled over, catching his breath and grasping the necklace around his neck. "You... I didn't expect you to be awake..." He laughed, then colored slightly when he remembered that he'd taken the liberty of changing Luca into some of his old clothes while he was still out. Did he mind that? There was no way Marc was going to leave him in soaked, bloody clothes. Especially not at the expense of an entire bed.
