Erik let out a hard sharp laugh. "Smarter then me? Uh huh, sure they are." He watched her, raising his eyebrows at her as she formed a cross with her fingers. He felt the familiar sharp pain in his chest at the sight of if, but his face didn't change. He said," if that actually worked, then I wouldn't be here by now." He chuckled, shaking his head. He hoped that if he could deceive her this one time, she wouldn't try anything else. Real wood crosses had more of an effect on him, but fingers only do so much.
