That sort of indifference was starting to piss the human off. He stayed naked as he was, his clothes weren't even in this room anyway, and sat up to watch while Elijah got himself clothed while moving about the room.
"Then why the fuck did you come back?" He demanded. The vampire left without a word for a year, and while Cain did not think that it was for him that the vampire returned, he also noted that he hadn't been beheaded, or gotten his heart ripped out, or any hundred other ways this could have turned out if Elijah wasn't interested in something. He hadn't been kicked out either, so there was that too. "And I don't know how you feel on the matter. You've been running for a year, and it looks like you're still running." He pointedly noticed that Elijah had practically jumped out of bed the moment he was free to do so.
"Look. I messed up, okay. I don't know what I want, but I know you're in the center of it, and I need you. Maybe it really is your love. Maybe it's the incredible sex, I don't know." His shoulders slumped though, that vague spark that he had been holding onto from a year ago sputtering when he finally realized there was no point in preserving it. "...and you're making it pretty clear right now that you don't care."
