Faith's breath caught slightly as she looked at the vampire.
"Jared I..." She started before realizing she wasn't sure what to say. She gave a short, embarrassed laugh. "You barely know me," she blushed slightly before looking at him.
Truth was the last man to say that to her had been the Mayor. She could still hear the way he'd spoken to her in her head. I'll always love you Firecracker.
She made herself focus back on the present, looking at her friend.
"Jared," she began carefully. "I care about you, I do, but you know I'm not exactly in the right place to be with anyone right? I need to get my head together first."
