"...sorry..." J-S said, realizing he'd been babbling when Chad told him to shut up. He knew he deserved that, he wasn't going to argue or try to tell him anything else about why he should be given another chance after a shock like that one. He wanted to though, he felt lie he was never going to be okay again until Chad told him he could get past this vampire thing.
Reaching into his pocket, Nico pulled out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter, handing them to Chad without a word as he kept the ice against him. He would be the perfectly silent helper if that's what Chad wanted from him. He wouldn't talk unless he was asked to, he would do anything Chad said at this moment, he didn't want to lose him for anything, and if that meant sucking up, then he would do just that.
