"That's Centaurus".

"It is one of the largest constellations in the sky, the biggest star in it is Alpha Centauri". Elli said while looking at the books on his lap.

Andrew was sitting beside him with an arm around his neck. It still made Elli uncomfortable, but he'd gotten a bit used to the affections of the man beside him and he actually felt a bit relaxed, which was something he didn't know was desperately in need of.

"You can also see Aries here, it is normally associated with the story of the Golden Fleece Greek mythology..."

Andrew hummed as if he was actually listening, he didn't really care about constellations or anything about space or science.

He was going to ask Elli's what was the point in reading those things if it wasn't going to help him in any way to know about space things if he wanted to survive.

But the happiness Elli's eyes reflected was so pure Andrew just couldn't convince himself to make the shorter man to stop. And before he knew it, they'd spent two whole hours sitting on Andrew's bed while Elli read the big book on his lap which he'd found on Andrew's forgotten bookshelf.

"Right?", Andrew stared at the fluffy golden locks that were messily lying on his shoulder.

"Andrew?".

"Yes?", Andrew stared at the big green eyes that stared back at him while Elli's head rested on his shoulder

"Are you listening to what I'm saying?, Elli frowned.

"Yes", Andrew blinked rapidly.

"Liar".

Andrew smiled, "Ask anything".

"Who is Chiron?".

"Uh... he's a piscis. By the way, Im a Leo, just so you remember that my birthday is on the 20th of August".

Elli glared at him, he stood up and was about to open the door when a hand held him and pulled him back to bed, he fell over two strong legs and arms quickly surrounded his waist.

"Sorry... he mentored Hercules and Achilles".

Elli smiled.

"You already knew that didn't you?".

Andrew pressed his nose against Elli's neck and hummed, sending chills through Ellis's spine.

"How did you know that?"

"Apparently you didn't look through the books very well, there are tons of books of greek mythology."

"Really? Which ones do you have?", Elli didn't take Andrew for the type of guy to be interested in mythology.

"Mmm... many, but you can see the basics. There's the Iliad, the Odyssey, the Eneid..., why don't you look at them yourself?"

Elli nodded sleepily, the warmth around him was comforting and made him feel very relaxed.

Andrew blew at his neck and he suddenly stood up glaring at Andrew with a flustered face.

"That's it"

He attempted to go for the exit when Andrew took hold of his wrist.

Andrew sighed and rubbed between his eyes with his free hand.

"Where are you going? I'll go with you".

"I don't know"

Andrew looked at him disapprovingly.

Something inside Elli's mind clicked. The telescope.

"To Xander's room", he as a smile took place on his face.

Andrew's expression darkened. He glared at Elli.

"Uh... my best friend"

Andrew scoffed, his eyes were now glowing, small specks of red in them.

Something in the air changed, it was suffocating, he brought his arms to his neck, he couldn't breathe.  

He dug his nails on his neck and a small drop of blood trickled down hid throat.

Andrew stared at the small droplet of blood slide slowly down his neck in slow motion.

Elli swore he saw something bright poking out of Andrew's mouth.

Andrew drew closer  and lowered his head, his nose touching the point where Elli's neck met his jaw line, Andrew took a deep breath taking in the pulsing scent.

Elli gasped when something dug on his neck. It flared though hid body and he collapsed, his eyes rolling to the back of his head until he saw no more.
