There were many things Samuel Silva had done in the past to please Jaime Solaire, one of his earlier pet projects, so it was no surprise that the ancient vampire had decided on a whim to buy a house and remain in Colorado simply to be close again. As his sire, he had a soft spot for the younger, but elder-looking man, he had been many firsts for Jaime, so it was hard to not feel the tiniest bit responsible for him, even after all these years.
Perhaps it was the years spent apart that made the younger-looking vampire so easily fall into the housing market, purchasing whatever house hit his current needs, just a small display for Jaime that he'd be around.
It wasn't a grand vampire mansion, not that Samuel ever had the taste for such a gross display of wealth. No, no, it was a simple 2-bedroom cottage, with a small garden and shed. Perfectly sized for his work, his notes, his books, and even a room to crash in. It was perfectly inconspicuous for Samuel, another plus, as he tended to run on the more paranoid/cautious spectrum since his escape. Dare not mention their name, Samuel might admit the damage done to his blunt, flaring ego during his centuries in captivity.
Pushing past that, always pushing away, Samuel sent a general invitation to both Jaime and his little human plaything, to stop by on their own accord. For the time being, Samuel was in the area, usually tucked away in his study, recounting and gathering knowledge he hadn't been able to readily devour during his time away.
In the end, it was always for Jaime, the things Samuel did--the things he was doing now. Although he'd hardly openly admit his softness, Jaime knew--it was their own secret language, their sire-bond. Jaime always knew.
