    Summary

    Sam doesn’t extract himself from his nest of blankets and pillows on the walk-in closet floor when he hears Rashid’s key in the front door. Even when he hears Rashid call out to him, asking if he’s had enough blood bags to tide him over until they can go out to hunt, all he does is roll onto his back and stare at the fairy lights he’s wound around the sheet-draped clothing racks overhead. Sam reaches toward the nearest wall; his nails graze one of the sofa cushions. Using a closet to structure your fort surely counts as cheating, but he’s too depressed to care.

    That’s likely why Sam doesn’t feel insulted when Rashid heads to the kitchen first. Judging by the sounds he makes while pottering around in there, the sequence of events goes like this: open the fridge, pull out blood bags, open the cupboard, get down a pair of mugs and…something made of cardboard that sounds like it contains sand. Rashid hasn’t been a vampire for that long, around a month, so there are still a handful of dry goods from his human existence. Puzzlingly, Rashid goes back to the fridge, pulls out the milk carton, and fetches yet another mug.
