They Talk To Me {Eri/open}

Laid to the river
Midsummer, I waved
A "V" of black swans
On with hope to the grave
And though Red September
With skies fire-paved
I begged you appear
Like a thorn for the holy ones

But ma cherie, I don't heed warnings since they very rarely actually mean anything to me. He chuckled, and a small smile graced over my features. Well then, I guess you got what you deserved, didnt you? I laughed softly. That would teach him a lesson, if nothing else. Actually, I could think of a few lessons to teach him, but right now he was much to tired, and I simply stored the thoughts away. At my glare, he had sent me back a light smile, making a pathetic attempt at being innocent. My brow raised as a small sarcastic "you've got to be kidding me, you, innocent? Right" smile drifted over my features. I shook my head and settled against him again. Silly boy. He was clearly anything but innocence, as I was. But I mean, at least I could pull it off. Most people couldnt stand to harm these sweet blue eyes, him you just wanted to laugh and have a go at him anyways. Although, other peoples and mine version of 'have a go' were probably so distant and so different. Inside I beamed. Yes, I had single handly snagged him, by myself, him, and me, at least for tonight. My heart always seemed to tense and drop a bit whenever I had reminded myself it was just for the night. Why would he want to bother to stick around me? He was, what, thousands of years old, I hadnt even made it past three hundred. That thought probably should have alarmed me, but it felt more natural than anything. I supposed due to Cethin's advancing age when I had just been turned, it seemed a little more normal to me than most others. That, and why should it bother me? So, he had seen times before I had even been born, but so didnt your average every day married couple. The male always had to be older, at least in my mind anyways.

He chuckled when I had sent him my comment about all the stupid humans. But ducky, think of all the easy meals I could get then and not to have to take so long, and it's so easy to pass of a death as the fool girl passing out. I shook my head and bit back laughter. Always thinking, clearly, even though I thought thinking hurt? Well, if it meant he would be short in feeding, I supposed it was worth it, yet I still wasnt thrilled with the idea. Ah well, I supposed I would be no different than I had been before. Some human men were quiet vile, considering at night when all of the local bars stayed open late, and they were to drunk to find their car keys, and decided to hoof it instead. A girl couldnt walk down the street without being slapped on the ass, without having sexual comments made, being followed, and once or twice even having them attempt to put "the moves" on me. Yeah, that hadnt ended so well. For neither one of us, since his blood was thinned to much with testosterone and booze that he had tasted rather disgusting, and smelled it too. I didnt want to say I was wasteful, but I had almost been sick that one time. I was more than happy to throw the body to the side and move on. Well, of course I had to make sure he was dead, so, ripping out his throat was easy enough. I enjoyed ripping out throats, I had no idea why, some morbid fascination inside of me I supposed. Perhaps it had been due to my own experience that had almost gone horribly wrong, for me anyways. I supposed Cethin would have been upset, but he would have been upset with himself. Ah well. Alright alright Karasu murmured, and my gaze slid to his. Defeat? Really? He must have been a lot more exhausted than I thought.

Was I happy about this? I wasnt sure, but as I moved closer and lied, he seemed to have picked up on it. I was a horrible liar, I hated lying in general, but I prayed he would push me on the matter. Not tonight anyways, maybe another time if he ever did come around again, then I would spill if he really really wanted me to, but I doubted he would bother to seek me out again. I could always seek him out, but, well, what would be the point if he had no interest in me? Ah well, in due time I would find out. I had mentioned not leaving him, considering now I really couldnt, and he simply murmured Good. in reply. He chuckled and pressed his face to me, and I smiled with a light sigh, pleased that he liked my decision to stick around. Perhaps I was just desperate, but, if he asked me to stay with him here forever, I probably would have with no heed to the oncoming dawn that would follow within hours. How could I deny the happiness I felt? And him? When morning came and I was most likely alone again, I would surly straighten my act out and move on, forget this wonderful evening until I heard his name again inside my clan or somewhere on the streets, wonder what had happened, remember our fun, and then move on again. No use being stuck on the past, right? Quite so ma cherie, I normally don't have to use it to this extent thanks to the sheer stupidity of the vast majority of this world's population. His voice was rather light and happy with the idea of it, and I couldnt help but offer a light laugh. So, I supposed that meant I wasn't stupid, correct? Or at least, he had to actually think when he was around me. Odd thought, no? I was always thinking, though most things came by instinct more so than anything else.

But I am resting He almost pouted even as I kissed him lightly. I chuckled. Yes, he was resting his body, which needed it after all, but I had meant his mind more so than anything. Oh well, it was likely he wouldnt listen to me anyways. And although I could pin him and force him to lay here, I couldnt in no ways possible force him to stop thinking. Well, unless I distracted him. The thought flittered across my mind, and it was much to tempting to actually resist. Maybe I just wanted to play again, perhaps I was just frisky with the ideas of plans to follow, but none the less, I couldnt wait. I suppose that being in my mind set, and being no more than a little girl who couldnt control herself, I snickered inwardly at that thought, I couldnt resist from just playing a small little game. Just a teaser, like the trial version before the game actually even came out. My outside hand ran along his chest, stopping to allow my index finger to draw light figure eights in the muscle and pale flesh as I adjusted myself to kiss him with the same passion I had before. Oops, oh well. Just a tease, right? I had to stop there, and I pulled away reluctantly. If I didnt, well then he might just end up killing himself from pushing matters to far. I sighed, leaning into his chest again, kissing his collar bone before settling down, attempting to push my thoughts away. I was much to eager now, as my mind slowly drifted to other thoughts and areas it had never been before, thinking up new things, ideas and trades, offering me suggestions, tips, and hints, teasing myself as much as I would tease him with it later.

His head tilted as I responded to his question, his gaze catching my own as I held my breath for a moment, feeling my heart jump into my throat. Would he call me out on it? I hoped not, I really didnt want to ruin our fun for the rest of the night with depressing thoughts of dead lovers. Take the time you need, certain things are nearly impossible to get over He seemed to breath the lyrics almost effortlessly, adverting his gaze away from my own, and I knew his thoughts had gone back to her. I sighed, settling into his chest for a moment, cursing my stupidity at allowing Cethin to posion my mind when I had been enjoying myself. I set my jaw, a little pissed off that my mood, or our moods, had been ruined by stupid thoughts that existed only because some pile of dust was unhappy. Give me a break, I would stomp those ashes if it were anyone else but Cethin. I shifted, kissing Karasu's jaw a little harsher than I had meant to. Lightly my hands gripped his face as I pulled his attention back to me, kissing him passionatly for a moment, before settling against him again, my head in the crook of his neck, underneath his own head. Not tonight I almost growled in a whisper. Not tonight, we wouldnt be discussing dead lovers and heart break, not tonight, I wouldnt let our moods be ruined. I'm much to happy to let anything ruin, this My gaze shifted down at our two bodies, content with lying next to him. I didnt want to put an 'us' in there, not yet anyways, and I silently dreaded the day it would all have to come out onto the table. One day, but it would not be this day, not a chance. Not tonight.

A handsome devil of temptation just like you I assume. His face crumpled in at my kiss, and I couldnt help but offer a smile and a giggle. I suppose so. Lust is one of the seven deadliest sins. And having sex before marriage is highly frowned upon, almost a death sentence. So sugar, I guess we're going to hell I laughed. Lust, was that what I felt? I glanced back at him blankly for a moment, a smile slowly filtering over my face. No, this wasn't lust. At least, not from what I could tell. Yet my heart had a way of falling for some poor fool before I even knew them, and despite its ever growing cautiousness now a days, I think it would have been happy to put its frail little glass self in his hands. I sighed, turning my attention away from him, finishing up getting dressed again. He chuckled as I teased him with my hot date. Oh, why yes, stroking your ego again. I suppose I should have refrained, but he was turning the game against me now and I was rather enjoying it. Hmmm, he's about six foot four, loves the color red, has red hair and blue eyes and has a sword that's a foot taller than he is right? I glanced back at him with an amused smile, my brow shooting up like I was surprised. Oh! So you know who I'm talking about? Yes I suppose that description fits him. I giggled, listening happily as he laughed with second comment. Not a chuckle, but an actual laugh. I might just have meet him, and see if I can commandeer you from him. A grin lit up my face. Well I dont know, I mean, he's pretty persistant. He tends to get what he wants. Well, from me that was. I had no idea what else he had gotten that he wanted, but he seemed pretty persistant, after all it seemed he wasnt going to let me go anytime soon as it was.

I know ducky. He sighed when I had told him how he really needed to eat. I smiled, well standing there wasnt going to get the job done. I can think of something else that could be nourishing as well, but I suppose that'll have to wait for a bit. I snickered, moving to him effortlessly as I kissed him again. We have all night. I don't need you dying in my shower or bed. I'm pretty sure you'd have to stay there until you were no more than a skeleton, just so I could finally move you. I giggled, my voice dripping with sarcasm, being no more than a tease. In truth, I didnt think I could drag him anywhere I needed to. I was strong, for my build and delicate frame, but he was massive compared to me. As it was, he stood seven inches taller than I, and I had kept myself at a tiny 114 with a 22' inch waist around. He on the other hand, well, his arms were bigger than my waist, which was rather sad. I supposed that in my time with nothing else to nurture I had nurtured my figure instead of my personality. Ah well, he seemed to like who I was. I was fun when I wanted to be, and a spiteful bitch the rest of the time. Couldnt complain, right? Usually I was bull headed, but I had no trouble submissing to him earlier. Tingles ran through my body, and a light grin danced across my face. Hopefully there would be many more submissions to come. I couldnt complain, allowing him to sieze control of my body and do as he pleased. I enjoyed it, I knew he must have. We were both lonely, we hadnt 'gotten some action' so to speak in centuries, I supposed our waiting had payed off for the both of us, and I ignored Cethin's nagging in my brain.

It's fine, I can do it too unless I decide to be too lazy and just grab a new pair. I glanced at him, and then the hole in his pants. Oh well, I supposed if he wanted to do it himself he could, but a small frown graced my features. Now, wait a second, if we were supposed to play the 'I'm the male I defend you, You're the female you stay behind me" skit, then should I be the one fixing his pants? It only seemed natural to me, after all years of pricking my fingers out had taught me a thing or two. I glanced at him again, a little more determined to re-insert myself where I wanted to be. I'll fix them I noted with quite the bit of determination. After that, we could call each other even, for the most part. No doubt his dignity would get in the way, and he would call it even anyways, but at least it would make me feel a tad bit better. I wasnt so useless, hurrah! It was the only thing that bothered me with having a male, they were always so protective over their girl. I thought about that statement for a moment. We hadnt even had our little rendezvous at that point, and he had really fought that kid off. I mean, sure there was quite the fair amount of him teasing the kid as always, I would have done the same, but he wasnt even about to make me protect myself. Even when the kid had come after me, he had risked injury and taken him down. A small smile lit over my face, and I kissed him again. What more could I do then that? I couldnt tell him I liked him, he would probably hit the road and run fast. Girls could never admit their feeling first, besides we usually melted when the guys said it first anyways, and then gave them what they wanted. It was the natural order of things, and I supposed for now I would have to wait it out and see where fate took us.

I know, I can't help that I'm a monster in size, but you know you like it. I shot him a rather surprised look. Which one was he talking about? I snickered at the thought, before grinning at him. Darlin' I began with another small snicker I dont know which one you mean, but I just for the record, I like both I teased him, feeling my voice slide back into the sexy naughty vocals I had used earlier. I nipped lightly at his bottom lip, running my hands over his chest, just to add insult to injury at this point. I'd get him riled up again, I didnt think it would take that long. Besides, by this point just about every statement he said had some naughty underlying tone to it, which I loved. Maybe I was just being the one who was naughty. Maybe I had only one thing on my mind, while he was thinking rather innocent thoughts about his size and height. Ah well, the words were already out in the open, so I supposed I couldnt take them back now. Of course you are, I'm the poor tyke that got sucked into all of this, rather willingly but that's besides the point. Oh, so now he was a tyke? I giggled, shaking my head. Key words here, rather willingly I winked back at him. And now all of a sudden you're a tyke, eh? I was more than amused with the idea, after all he seemed to make it a point to establish that he was indeed, very, very old. Much older than myself. I should have been the little girl sucked into his game, not vice versa. Ah well, it was nice to know I could get the hardest of males to even fall for me. That was making me feel better more and more so by the second as I dwelled on it, before watching him stumble over himself from a stand still.

He must have caught the worry in my eyes, I didnt bother to really hide it. I was looking forward to tonight, I couldnt just let him all of a sudden fall flat on his face and go to sleep. No, I had more important things on our agenda. As I moved his gaze caught my own, and he sighed lightly before slipping into a world much unknown to me Non è niente. My eyes grew wider as my brow furrowed. What? I couldnt have heard him correctly, but before I could ask him to repeat, he had spoken again. Arrêter, s'il vous plaît. I shook my head, confused. Wait, was he saying something different, and I couldnt understand, or was my mind just playing tricks on me? I was rather frustrated, shaking my head again, running my hand through my hair and stopping midway through as I held my skull. What? It was all I could ask as I paused where I was in my movement. Je sais, je sais, ayez laissez-nous obtient juste aller. He murmured after I had mentioned finding food for tonight. My brow dug deeper into my features and I glared, trying to piece out what he was saying. Karasu, I dont understand you I replied heavily, rubbing my eyes for a second. Wake up, just wake up. I was going insane, wasn't I? Yes, Cethin had now poisioned my mind and was making everything sound wacky. Wait, what was that last thing you said? I puzzled myself over the words, trying to piece together the ideas that lurked behind them, reorganizing letters and phrases, trying to figure it out. Yet, despite my efforts, they seemed to fail and I sighed unhappily.

Se calmer, je ne vous nuirai pas. He murmured again, and I knew I wasnt going insane. He was speaking another language, wasnt he? But why? And what? Je ne vous, french. That much I could tell. Cethin had been french, and I had grown accustomed to the soft french songs he would play while he sang along in the kitchen, the soft phrases he used to tickle me with, even though I had no idea what they meant. I knew a small amount, but it was only common phrases one could pick up on just about every day. Yet, I had no idea what the rest of his sentence was, so even though I had picked up on a few words, I couldnt be certain on what he was saying anyways. I ran both hands through my hair, pulling at the ends of it as I sighed, glancing up at the stars instead of him, feeling my frustration and confusion grow more and more. Je serai fin une fois je me régale. he continued to murmur, and I shivered with my frustration. What on earth was he saying? Why did this need to be so complex? I held my head, my mind was begining to hurt as it searched for lost french remenants of what had been once so many years ago. Why? Why couldnt he just stick to basic english, a language we both liked and enjoyed? Why so complex. Or at least, give me a simple straight forward answer. Je ne....vous, comprends? I hesitated as I spoke. It was the only phrase I actually knew in French, besides hello, goodbye, yes no, and I love you. I had learned it to remind Cethin when he went off on one of his tangents, I couldn't actually speak or understand the language, so he was venting to himself.

I was desperate now to know what he was saying, it was going to drive me insane if nothing else. His gaze fell over me, and I looked down at myself. What? Was there something on my legs? No, nothing at all, just me, and I glanced back up to see a light smile teasing over his face as he ran his hand through his bangs. I was so confused, I was so desperate to know, my quest for knowledge was never fullfilled, I suppose due to my era where girls stayed home and boys went to school. Penso che cado innamorato di lei. He spoke again softly, and even though I didnt understand, I had a feeling if I did I would have liked it. Maybe, who knew? Maybe he had insulted me, though I doubted it with the caring smile that lifted his face. I merely padded to him now, no longer on edge as I had been. I suppose instinct had taken over, I was alone in the woods with a male who I only knew physically. I had no idea his mental state, I supposed I was unstable in that aspect but now I was certain he was quite ok. I placed my hands squarly on his chest, standing on my tip toes to reach him as I kissed him gently, with my best efforts of course. Seven inches was just going to be to much, perhaps a tall set of heels would fix that. Or a ladder. Maybe a nice little step-stool, carry it around with me everywhere I went. I giggled inwardly at the thought of how silly that would look. He would have to deal with bending over every now and then. I was square on my feet again, my hands still on his chest, looking up into his face. My head tilted, as I felt myself grow almost innocent You too? I offered. I had no idea what he had said, and I had no idea what I was agreeing to, but he would probably like it, since he obviously understood himself.

Those two words, well, they could have been the begining of something great, or the end of something great. Who knew? He did, I didnt, and I still puzzled myself over what he had said, but I couldnt find placement on the words he had muttered. He must have been speaking more than one, for just as I began to follow the french through a slow process, my trail went dead cold as I stumped myself over another word. Maybe I should have taken french with Cethin. Oh, right, I was supposed to, but then he had been murdered. I had loved the language itself, but it was so precise, I had also lost interest in learning it so long ago. My belly rumbled inside of me, and I looked down between us at it, confused for a moment before realizing. Oh right, that twang of pain inside there was hunger. Odd, I hadn't realized the need of blood in so long, it was a strange sensation to me. I supposed because of the fact that I had been living rather rouge like. Out in the wild, you killed whatever you felt like it, because instinct told you to. Now my mind and belly were telling me, and it was rather odd to feel again. Did I welcome it, or did I forbade it to ever cross me again as it was doing now? I had no idea, I was at a loss, but I pressed myself to him and kissed at his jaw rather tenderly. I was hungry, I wanted clothes, food, a shower, and a warm bed, all which involved him so it only made it that much better. I also wanted to see my clan again, however I supposed that could wait. They had gone a year without me, they could go another day or two and be fine, right? I felt rather careless about them at this moment, but, my attention would be back and in full thrive once I was done here. Or if he were done with me first. Who knew, we still had a night to plow through.

My gaze shifted back up to meet his, feeling almost like a lost child. I knew what I wanted, but I was to tired and hungry to actually leave him to go get it. Only when he decided to move would I. I'm starving I whispered, feeling my stomach growl again, rolling with the need of blood it felt. I had been hungry before he had found me, it was the third thing on my list before he had snagged me. Check out the Deneb, see how they were doing was first. Second, I wanted a bath, to be rid of the mongrel stench, which was now happily covered up with Karasu's. And third, I wanted to rip up an entire club and just loose myself in my thirst. Wanted to, now, was I going to? No, that would draw way to much attention to myself. Besides, I was a tiny little thing, so maybe two maximum would fill me to the top and I would be good for a while. Well, that had all changed thanks to my little play date. Now I wanted clothes that fit, with a nice meal, a hot shower, and then bed. All happily I would share with him. Well, at least the meal, a hot shower and my bed. I sighed at the thought of my bed. The pretty bed set I had gotten was still laying there, probably covered in dust, brand new. I had left before I had even gotten a night in it, I wondered how my home was doing without me. Home, that also sounded nice, instead of these woods. I didnt feel like fighting a pack of weres tonight, I was much to content with our plans. Can we, go? I whispered. I was in a bit of a rush. I wanted to get out of here before the kid or were's came along. I wanted to get something to eat. I wanted to find my new dress and flaunt myself beside Karasu down the streets, filled with people and lights. I wanted to slowly murder someone, just because I could, and then I wanted to go home, full and happy, giggling and blushing, climbing into the warm water with him. Nothing could feel better. Afterwards, we would stumble out of the shower, grinning and giggling, kissing and probably making naughty remarks, and then go lie on my bed, where I could happily cuddle beside him in plush satin comfort, and doze off. Inside my mind, it would all go flawlessly, everything would go, according to plan.

Bared on your tomb
I'm a prayer for your loneliness
And would you ever soon
Come above onto me?
For once upon a time
On the binds of your loneliness
I could always find the slot for your sacred key

Ohmagosh, almost 5K words xD

[Eri]

I smiled at her laugh and words. "But ducky, I am an innocent being that has done nothing wrong and I deserve nothing, most of the time." I said with a smile. Oh come now ducky, I'm not a horrible person! Errr, vampire. Whatever, not really a big difference except that I was stronger, faster, more intelligent, better in all ways, than a human. To a vampire being called a human was a horrible insult it seemed. I chuckled at her reaction to my feigned innocence. Ok, yeah, easily seen through the act if someone even vaguely knew me. Perhaps I would need to work on that at some point, if I ever even felt the need to do so. Oh well.
She was shaking her head at my comment about easy meals. What was so funny about that? I liked easy meals. Guess I was a pretty typical guy. Food, sex, war, those were the most common things on my mind at all times, mostly food and war since I really didn't have a willing partner all of the time. I'd have to change that. I glanced at the girl. She'd be good enough, and I was quite sure she'd be up for experimenting in the bed, or other places, if needed. She'd probably like that little idea though, at least if the day had been anything to judge by. I smirked slightly. Yeah, I think she'd go along quite willingly. She did seem surprised when I gave in rather easily. She didn't know what I was planning though, at least for later.
She had moved closer. Was she pleased about something? Or perhaps thinking of a way to attempt to teach me a lesson? It wouldn't work unless I wanted to learn though. Stubborn old ass remember? She did seem awfully content to be with me. Like sticking around me. I mean most one night stands weren't likely to last this long, especially considering we had plans for the rest of the night it seemed. I was pleased though. She did laugh at my comment that held a compliment within it. Guess she understood it, which was a good thing. I liked having intelligent by my side.
She chuckled at me again. Was I really that funny? Yeah, I suppose I was so I simply waved it away. Though it seemed she was going to taunt me as her hand roamed over my flesh and kissing me. I groaned slightly and was tempted to push her away and at the very same time I wanted to pull her to me and push her to the ground again. "Trying to kill me are we?" I asked with a small smile. No, I was relatively in control of my urges, if not thoughts and words all the time now.
She settled though, almost as if something was depressing her. Now I wouldn't have that. She'd end up ruining my fun, and I wouldn't appreciate that. Though something seemed to click in her and she was mildly violent with her kissing. Not that I minded, I liked my girls with a bit of bite, as long as they where to draw the line. I smiled slightly when she said she wouldn't tell me tonight. Ohhh, was someone planning on future meetings? I could deal with that. "I'll wait a millennium if need be." I said without really thinking. I doubted she'd be able to handle me for that long though. We'd just have to find out though, and I bet she'd be up for a challenge anyways.
"Oh there are other reasons as well, seems both of us are rather gluttons for punish, plus are we not akin to sloth with getting out of here? But hell ma cherie? I'm afraid that place won't take me, something about the leading fearing for his position or something." I said with a chuckle. She was quiet again except for the sighing and smiling. This was seriously one of the times I wished I could read another's mind, it would be a lot of help right now. I smiled broadly when she kept playing along. "Know about him? I should think so, we have killer parties all the time, go dancing at the clubs and all that fun stuff." I said with a chuckle. "Persistent eh? I'm pretty sure he owes me a few favors anyways, and I can be pretty...persuasive....if need be." I said, almost purring in delight. Yeah, I liked this girl, she had enough spunk that she wasn't boring.
She seemed to absolutely adore kissing me. I didn't mind, though I was trying not to resort to what my instincts told me and ravage her, again. I sighed slightly, though I did like the affectionate even if it was strange after so long. Good strange though, or at least I liked it which was the important thing. I sniffed slightly. "I wouldn't die, I'd just pass out, lack of blood to your head is quite problematic." I said with a smile and leaned towards her face, almost daring her to kiss me. I smirked lightly, oh I knew she would take the dare. Actually I was going to make the move and take my own dare and kissed her. She was a stubborn little girl too. Seemed she was going to keep asserting herself as my girl, by mentioning she'd fixed my pants, or rather demanding that she would. Whatever, it'd save me from a few pricked fingers. Being a bachelor with no servants you end up learning how to do certain things or just no dealing with anything at all that was related to the problem. It worked for me at least.
I laughed again at her comment about my size. "Such a naughty little mind, I wasn't talking about my member, but it's good knowing you like both." I said, trying to rein in my laughter. Oh I liked this girl. Even if she liked tormenting me, actually that was something I rather enjoyed in the end. She giggled at me and one brow was raised into a perfect quizzical look. Oh trust me, I could be cute if I wanted, I just normally didn't try to. There was no need. "One can only fight your instincts for so long." I said with a shrug. "And quite so, especially since you're making me feel a bit younger than I really am." I said with a grin.
I was surprised at her puzzlement. Had she not understood me? It had been perfectly clear to me. She was obviously confused. Was I not speaking perfectly? I had also prided myself on my enunciation. I frowned slightly even as I rubbed my eyes with a hand and sighed heavily. She asked a question and I paused for a moment. I guess I wasn't coming through too well then. Ok, perhaps I needed to slow down? No, she'd understood me before. She was glaring then before telling me she didn't understand. "Come lei non può capirmi?" I murmured, head tilting. She asked me to repeat what I'd just said and I paused, and realized my mistake.
"Je suis désolé, j'ai une mauvaise habitude de glissers dans les langues différentes quand mon cerveau ne travaille pas à droite." I said looking away and realized I'd done it again. Perhaps it wasn't for the best that I'd become fluent in both italian and french. She seemed to be trying to puzzle everything out and it made sense now. She hadn't understood me because I was flipping back and forth in two different languages. And there I had it from her, in nearly broken french that she didn't understand me.
I sighed gently with a smile. I was such an ass it seemed, but she caught me off-guard when she asked me a question in response to my state of thinking I was falling for her after she'd moved closer and kissed me, having to stretch, and me being the gentleman I was, I had bent a little stiffly so she wouldn't have so far to reach. I was blinking in surprise though. She understood me? Or just that one statement? My gaze turned sharp, scanning over her features, searching for the sign of a lie or anything like that.
What was I supposed to do now? If she did understand me then I would be a happy vampire. But if she didn't understand she would doubtlessly be in shock if I was to react like she had understood me. I settled for pulling closer to her and kissing her rather gently, refraining from lifting her up to my height. That would just instigate more problems. She seemed to be thinking until her stomach distracted us both. I couldn't help myself and tapped a finger against her. "Sembra siamo entrambi un pezzetto irritabile proprio ora." I murmured and cursed myself. "
Sono spiacente.....errr, I'm sorry." I corrected myself. Damn it, why couldn't I just speak english anymore? Oh well, I guess I'd just have to constantly be correcting myself until I got a good meal.
I smiled when she said she was starving. "So I heard." I said with a cheeky smile. I rubbed my own stomach to discourage it from growling, which succeeded, if barely. She asked if we could go and I nodded. "Nous avons traîné trop longtemps de toute façon." I murmured easily enough. "Dammit, I'll be fine once I get some food in me, I promise, but yes, let's not linger anymore." I said, brushing my hand through my hair again. Yeah, it was actually a way to figure out if I was embarrassed. Oh well, she didn't know, yet at least. And if she had understood me then she would find out. "Come mio tesoro. We have a fun night ahead of us." I said with a grin and bowed, wobbling slightly as I straightened and offered my arm to her, like any proper gentleman would.[/size]

Laid to the river
Midsummer, I waved
A "V" of black swans
On with hope to the grave
And though Red September
With skies fire-paved
I begged you appear
Like a thorn for the holy ones

But ducky, I am an innocent being that has done nothing wrong and I deserve nothing, most of the time. I couldn’t help but snicker at his new remark. You know, I have a really hard time believing that for some reason I trailed off sarcastically. Come now, he wouldn’t be offended by it, would he? Ah, to hell with it. Being offended by such a statement would be rather silly of him, then again, he wasn't exactly thinking right. Oh well, I doubted he would be leaving my side tonight as it was. After all, I had just promised him two things I knew men loved, food and sex. How much better could his life get? And I was certain that perhaps he would get to break a few limbs tonight once I found my outfit. Well, no, I was damn certain he would be snapping a few necks tonight. I wasn't going to under dress myself just because I didn’t want the idiot humans around me. No, that wouldn't be it at all. Besides, I had a man, at least for the night, and I wasn't about to be second best. Nope. Wasn't about to happen by any chance. Besides, he would probably love my selection, since I also had a deep love for the color red. So, it would be all good, as soon as we got there anyways. But, alas I was no huge rush, more or less keeping myself under control for tonight. I suppose it was instinct, my mind was a rather cruel place and was slowly coaxing my instincts, stroking them even as he spoke. Despite my hunger and slight amount of tiredness, I would deal with going again had he not totally exhausted himself on the first go. Fool, ah well, I hadn’t been planning on seconds, I suppose my mouth had snuck that in their, but, I was looking forward to them as it were.

He groaned as I teased him, and a small grin lit up my face. Come now Karasu, don’t be so boring. Surely you're not that tired. Alright, well maybe you are, but you wont be for that much longer. And this time, I'd like to see the light again before I even think about going to sleep. Don’t worry, I have black curtains, so its not like the suns going to be bothering me anytime soon. Trying to kill me are we? He half smiled, and I snickered. No, I was thinking more or less like the demo version before you actually got to the game. You know what I'm saying? I teased him, kissing him again lightly. I'd rather you not be dead honestly. I don't think I could find anyone to replace you fast enough I laughed with sarcasm. Of course, another dead male would be a problem for me. Well, Cethin was murdered, I would kill this one. Oops, ah well, it was all in good fun, right? Besides, I knew he liked it, he must have. He fed into every move I made, he gave against me and allowed me to do whatever I wanted to, and he didn’t bother to fight back. Good. He was a keeper. I liked guys that knew when to dominate, and when to let everything go and let me have a go at the reins. Besides, I knew what I was doing, for the most part, and if I didn’t, well then that meant that we would certainly find out, for better or worse. Never hurt to try new things. Although, I had a small twinge of doubt he would allow me to be in control in bed. That was alright. In bed, I enjoyed the ride more so than actually being the conductor. That was, if the conductor knew what he was actually doing and how to keep things alive. The same old, blasé thing got really boring. Well, it seemed I had met one that could handle my tracks as I gave them to him, so it was all up to him when he decided to de-rail himself.

I settled against him, sighing with defeat about telling him later. Maybe the slight amount of depression in my mood and tone wasn’t obvious, but he should have known that I wouldn’t want to talk about it. Ah well, at least he was nice enough to actually ask first before just assuming or being a big enough ass and not caring at all. He smiled lightly when I had told him, and I sighed again, happy he actually understood. Maybe it was just me, but it seemed the amount of half Romeo and Juliet stories were lacking around here. I'll wait a millennium if need be. I glanced back up at him. A millennium, eh? I quite liked the sound of that. I snickered, bringing my happy playful mood back up to code. There was no point in weeping in the past, and if he gave me to long to think, then back things happened. A millennium, eh? Alright then. A millennium you shall wait I laughed. Alright so maybe I wasn’t going to actually make him wait a millennium before hearing my sob story, but he was going to wait a while. First, I didn’t just share my past with anyone, so I had to be certain that I actually liked him and not just what he had offered for our evening. On top of the fact, I needed to know him a bit better, though I doubted he would be one to stab me in the back. Maybe I would make him go first, so I had his story as well to dangle over his head. Maybe I would throw myself in there too, if he refused to give first. Sex seemed like a good way to get a guys attention, or at least get what you wanted. Especially if you wanted more sex. They never seemed to have a problem complying with that. Naughty little bitch fit me alright.

Oh there are other reasons as well, seems both of us are rather gluttons for punish, plus are we not akin to sloth with getting out of here? But hell ma cherie? I'm afraid that place won't take me, something about the leading fearing for his position or something. I glanced at him, my brow raising with curiosity, surprise, and a laugh threatening to dance past my lips. I was rather amused by this fellow, he kept things going, and in a good way. Perfect, he suited my mood for right now. Oh really? I started. Well, I was aware there were more reasons. I had just given the more, interesting ones I winked. Sure, murder, death, wrath, lust, greed, they all fitted me. I would go to hell in a hand basket for certain. I'm pretty certain we could sneak you in past the front gates. To be honest, I would find it rather amusing if you did take over hell. That would be a sight I chuckled at the idea. Fire ravaged my mind, along with a red half fawn running for his life as Karasu followed him, sword held high, attempting to stab at his back. Alright, I know that’s not how he fought, I had seen it first hand tonight, but the idea was amusing. Of course, I would just stand there an laugh as the whole world of Hell quite literately fell apart at the seams. Well, if you thought about it, such a place couldn’t exactly exist. So many cunning minds and daring souls, trapped in one place? I doubted such a place could even think to exist! After all, surely you had one like Karasu who would try to dominate. And what would the fawn do then? I snickered. Silly fawns, they were harmless anyways. What did they know anyways?

Know about him? I should think so, we have killer parties all the time, go dancing at the clubs and all that fun stuff. I glanced at him as he chuckled, a smile dancing across my face. Oh, a club! That sounded like fun. Oh, do you now? I wouldn't have guessed he was the type to go clubbing That was sounding almost as fun as a shower was now. Persistent eh? I'm pretty sure he owes me a few favors anyways, and I can be pretty...persuasive....if need be. I giggled, feeling my gaze slide to meet him again. Oh really? And do I have no say? Maybe I don’t want you to be persuasive. I offered sarcastically. Boy, was I glad there really wasn’t another male. If there was, well, I would have to drag Karasu there to kick him out anyways. I wouldn’t want another guy tonight, and if I had set up some arrangement, well then I probably wouldn’t have slept with Karasu this afternoon. Well, tell you what I winked in his direction. You persuade him. We'll see how this goes. You two have your little, 'discussion' and I'll slip into something naughty in the back, 'kay? I don’t really care which one of you wins I snickered and winked again. I liked this guy, he knew how to play with me enough that I was still under control. I wasn’t chomping at his neck yet, so I supposed he had been lucky thus far. Well, no, he had been really lucky thus far. I couldn’t help but feel a grin slide over my face again. I thought about making an adjustment to our schedule. Maybe, clothes, food, club, shower, bed? Well, food and the club could probably go together, right? I wouldn't have trouble finding a quick meal, that was for certain, would he? I spared a glance at him. Yeah, I doubted he would actually have trouble.

I wouldn't die, I'd just pass out, lack of blood to your head is quite problematic My gaze moved up to meet his as he moved closer, leaning down just a little, teasing me to kiss him. Hm, well maybe I would play with this one. He was expecting it. I didn’t do things that were expected. I liked to be spontaneous. Yet, well, he was tempting. After all, if nothing less than delicious, he was strong, and brave, and well, I kind of liked him a little more than I should. I didn’t have much longer to dwell on my thoughts. Perhaps I was taking a bit longer, though, a few seconds wasn’t very long for us. None the less, he stole away his own invisible dare, leaning in and kissing me. Humph, I quite liked that. My hands wrapped around his neck as I grinned, kissing him back, standing on my toes again. Damn, he was just too tall. Or I was just to damn short. Hopefully a set of heels would fix that without a problem. Maybe I would actually stand a little over his shoulder! Oh, excitement! Maybe I'd hack his shins off tonight to make him closer to my accessibility. So this way, I wouldn’t need to carry a little step ladder everywhere I went. Well hell, maybe I'd just strap it to his back instead! I giggled lightly as I pulled away. I guess I'll be getting a ladder soon. I jested lightly, gathering my hair into a pony tail, pulling at the ends, allowing any dead strands to fall to the forest floor, a grin smothering my face. Oh! Maybe he could hang my Christmas lights when the time came! My roof wasn’t that tall, perhaps he could reach. Jolly red giant, maybe I'd make him keep his shirt off too. Wake up in the evening to look out at his body, pressed against my window, hanging my lights which I really didn’t have, but I would buy if he would indeed put them up. I snickered, so naughty, so dirty, and ever so amusing.

Such a naughty little mind, I wasn't talking about my member, but it's good knowing you like both. I felt shivers run up my spine as he laughed. No, liked was an understatement. I loved them both thus far. Well, I couldn’t help myself. Hey I started, resting one hand on my hip, pointing my finger at him with a rather amused grin smeared across my face You walked into that one, alright? I teased before bursting into a series of giggling and laughing. Had it not been the truth? He opened the door, I walked through. That was almost as easy as "insert foot here" written by his mouth. I snickered, shaking my head and sighing. It seemed we at least knew how to amuse each other, for right now anyways. Well hell, even before our little rendezvous he had been somewhat entertaining. I was looking forward to a fight, dreading it really, but well, things seemed to take an ironic twist and well, here we were! I was still surprised with how I had acted. Odd, never had happened before, and I had faced a lot of beefy "hunks" so to speak. Never in my life had I been as naughty as I was tonight, and I only wanted to go further, to really press matters. I supposed he hadn’t worn me out enough, so my previous fire still smoldered. Well well well, looked like he'd have to find a way to extinguish the flame for good, now wouldn't he? Yes. He would. And he would like it as much as I would. I was still full of energy, he was hardly moving. Perhaps it was just due to my clan. We had a way of regaining our energy quickly, but I almost felt like acting like a child and grabbing his hand, yanking him where ever I wanted going "com'onnn, Com'oonnnn, Hurry up!". I wouldn’t, but the idea still amused me.

As I giggled his brow raised perfectly on his forehead with question, and I could only grin. Alright, that, was kind of cute. I supposed. Cute for a, thousand-something-year-old-male-who-had-just-slept-with-some-random-chick-in-the-woods-and-was-now-willing-enough-to-go-back-home-with-her-because-she-had-offered-him-sex-again. Yeah, that kind of cute fit. One can only fight your instincts for so long. I glanced at him, feeling my brow shoot up. Why on earth would one fight their instincts? Ah well, I supposed right now I was. More or less, I guessed I was fending them off for now. And quite so, especially since you're making me feel a bit younger than I really am I played with my hair, before glanced at him over my shoulder again. I snickered lightly. You know, sometimes fighting your instincts is like fighting a loosing battle. You're never going to actually win, they'll take over sometime or another. Plus, I find it much more interesting to not fight them, most of the time. I suppose I'm one to speak, but I like to look at it more like, fending them off. Keeping them at bay if you will. Besides, my instincts want you again, but right now, clearly I don’t have you. But I will, later tonight. So, alas they shall win. I blabbered on and on, snickering and teasing, grinning and fixing my hair, acting as if I were some old time teacher. And isn’t it a good thing to not feel age? Surely you cant be complaining about such a thing I winked. Hell, I knew I felt like my old self. Seventeen, love sick, happy, bold and daring, willing to try new things. Yeah, that had been me, before I had become this frigid bitch who just wanted to kill everyone that looked at her twice. I felt young, frisky, like a naughty little school girl. Teacher teacher, please don’t punish me. No, wait, please do!

Oh, school girl. That would be an interesting one. I could use a lesson or two, maybe a slap across the wrist, or, a few other, places. I snickered. I had a feeling I had already met my new professor. Would he play? I doubted he would fight against it, though if he were really good, he would have some really good self control. Don’t just feed into me. Sure, I wanted it, but the longer you took, the hotter I got, and the more interesting it would be when things finally did go my way. If I didn’t totally tackle you first and take care of matters myself. He frowned, rubbing his eyes as I stood confused now. What the hell? One minute, dirty thoughts were dancing happily across my mind, the next minute, you go confusing me. Right, that would work well in the future. Come lei non può capirmi? I frowned, feeling my eye twitch a little bit. Alright, so maybe it was just good timing that it had happened. Sometimes, it felt the need to give a little twitch, I wasn’t perfect, alright? Oh, no wait, yeah, I was. I was the full complete package as far as he knew. I hadn't met someone who was better than I, probably because I wouldn't admit it. Well, who would? He wouldn't have either if I found some other guy who was next to Adonis hot. Ah well, I went back to his words. Clearly he was frustrated. Well hey, don’t get upset with me. He was the one flipping between two totally different worlds. Three, actually, since I thought I had caught a few English words in there somewhere. Maybe I was wrong, but as I started to follow him, he suddenly totally derailed the sentence and went off somewhere else completely foreign to me.

I frowned myself in response, getting a little more and more agitated. At this point, I wanted to slap him around a few. I may have been able to understand French, but the other one, I had no idea. I rubbed my temples. I didn’t want to totally snap at him, but well, I couldn’t handle this confusion anymore. I have no clue what you're saying anymore. Ok? Maybe that’s not clear, but, yeah, I don’t speak your lingo at the moment I set my jaw. Wow, wasn’t I just a sassy little bitch? Alright well, wasting my time with this nonsense wasn’t on our agenda. Perhaps I could pencil this in for Tuesday, if he behaved tonight. Maybe, say, 2 o'clock? Yeah, that sounded right. Je suis désolé, j'ai une mauvaise habitude de glissers dans les langues différentes quand mon cerveau ne travaille pas à droite. I followed him up until 'habitude', when I lost him again. He had a bad habit of what?! I picked up a few more words, before shaking my head. Ugh, this was becoming really frustrating. I. Don’t. Follow. I stated simply, keeping my anger from boiling over. This was another one of those, "fighting your instincts" things. Right now, I kept them at bay, but within a few more sentences of his that had "j'ai" and 'de' in them, I would have to smack him around a bit. Or well, perhaps just completely wear him out for good. Walk away while he lay unconscious. He could handle the sun. Maybe I'd even be nice enough to come back to check on him at dusk. I snickered, lowering my anger by amusing myself with evil and naughty thoughts. Together, they stroked my mind with velvet fingers, and I rather enjoyed it.

He sighed and smiled softly, maybe he understood his mistake. He must have, and he bent a little so I could kiss him properly. Good boy. I really didn’t want a ladder if I didn’t have to carry one around. Maybe in a few hundred years they would invent one that folded up and was purse size. I would pay for one of those. As long as I didn’t have to blow it up. I was thinking button, push it and it completely unfolded. Push it again, it refolded into a small, easy to carry square. At my small statement, his gaze turned hawk sharp, staring at me, searching for some hint of something. What?! I was being a good girl, and you dare look at me like I lied to you? Perhaps I didn’t understand you completely, but well, it sounded rather sweet. At least the French bits I had heard in there did. I didn’t know about the other language. I scoffed, I was ready to slap him. How dare he! I had no idea what he had said, but before I could dare raise a hand to him, or even open my mouth to sass him again, his mood changed as he grabbed my waist, pulling my slender body next to his. He leaned down, kissing me tenderly, and I forgot about my little mini bitch fest that had raged inside. Good boy. I had no idea what I had agreed to, but, I was pretty sure I liked it. It couldn’t have been anything that serious, right? I mean, it wasn’t like he had told me he loved me, right? My heart fluttered at the thought, and I frowned inwardly. Now, what the hell was that? Fluttering? Really you stupid little organ. No, you stay in your black little space, and stay. Don’t be fluttering, trying to tell me what I feel. I want to find out for myself, thank you very much. Wow, I must have either been tired, or hungry, or perhaps I was so pleased at the moment that it didn’t take much to amuse me. Yelling at my heart? Was that what it had come to?

Sembra siamo entrambi un pezzetto irritabile proprio ora. He murmured, before cursing. I sighed rather dis heartedly. I don’t like things I cant understand Karasu It had started off serious, but somehow had a playful tease by the time 'understand' came out. I thought that was clear by now? Sono spiacente.....errr, I'm sorry I half opened my mouth before he corrected himself, smiling as he apologized in a manner of which I could understand. It alright I whispered kissing him gently as he had done me. Perhaps had I not been so hungry, tired, and frisky, I would have played along and happily attempted to piece together the words he had spoken, but I had to much on my mind and I really didn’t want to be put off anymore. I considered telling him that, but well, I was sure he could figure it out for himself. I also didn’t like confusion, but that was obvious. I preferred to stay rather intelligent, I felt it one of my duties as a clan leader, and vampire in general. I was superior, I had to stay that way no matter what came down the pike. So I heard. He stated simply at my comment about being famished. I snickered lightly Well, I don’t have a problem voicing my opinion. I suppose my body shouldn’t either I giggled. Why should my mind and mouth be the only thing that speak? I had a way with body language as it was. Clearly. My gaze moved down to the ground, where things were obviously disturbed. I couldn’t help but chuckle. It was pathetic to what we really could have done, and I really hoped it was. I wanted things a bit more, wild, tonight. I was feeling, zesty, spicy, frisky? They all fit and none did. Ah well, Karasu would figure out my mood, if it wasn’t obvious already.

Nous avons traîné trop longtemps de toute façon We had, done what? We had done something for to long, I picked that up. I frowned, before watching as he did the same, cursing himself. Dammit, I'll be fine once I get some food in me, I promise, but yes, let's not linger anymore. His hand fell through his auburn hair again, and I smiled. That, I understood. Well it would seem tonight I would find out if he held himself to his word or not. Alright then I simply smiled, giddy with my hopefully good fortune, and his. I was thinking, I began slowly, thinking about how to phrase this. The night is still young, yes? I want to dance I breathed the word, as I leaned into his chest, kissing his neck lightly. No, I didn’t want to salsa, I didn’t want some romantic swirl spiny thing. I wanted to tease a little bit, and I wanted to be teased. I wanted to play, and flaunt myself beside him. Hell, I wanted to be flaunted. And while we're there, we can always pick up something quick to eat. After all, humans are easy creatures. They seem to lack not only intelligence but total self control, and high morals. I feel not for killing their type My nose was always turned up at the human race. They were no more than fodder to me, and I was quite picky. I knew who I wanted and who I didn’t. Sometimes I even had grown bored enough to give each one points. A fighter was five, a cross dresser was two, and anything that was a 'doctor' or lawyer was a solid ten to fifteen, depending on age and well, how good they tasted. Killing any form of brains in the human race was ever so pleasing to me.

It was also, ironic. I mean, doctors tried to save people I had mangled. Lawyers fought for the families against the state for the things I did. Killing them meant, I had slipped another couple under deaths door in secret. I was always pleased when I found some sort of license. Well, of course I searched their person. I wanted to know who I had killed, I was always curious. Plus, I had a thing for killing males. Females didn’t click that much. To much screaming, to much "Oh please don’t" as they sobbed and tried to fight me off. I also didn’t like their nails scratching my face. I had a reputation to hold, bitch. It healed as soon as I was done with the pathetic girl, but, it still pissed me off. Come mio tesoro. We have a fun night ahead of us. I glanced at him, feeling myself pulled out of thought. Oh, my mistake. He bowed, swaying a little, and I half prepared to catch him. Or well, soften his landing with my own body more or less, since he would easily barrel me over if he did fall and I was stupid enough to try and catch him. And I probably would be. He offered his arm, and a grin lit up my face. Well, we were shaping up to be quite the gentlemen, weren't we? I suppose he could have treated me like the little whore I was being, however he still choose to treat me like a lady, and I was rather touched. Alright, so I was being a softy, and if my clan caught me, perhaps I would have been mortified, but I was a female. Oh Evangeline, you do have a heart. Shut up. I do not. That I know of. Of course, I was rather pleased at his offer, and took his arm properly as any lady of my time would have. Though, I was the naughty girl of my time. Oh yes, but I pushed those thoughts away. Sure, I beamed at the idea of rebelling against my parents, having sex before marriage, the usual bad stuff, but they had strings attached and those strings had names. Cethin was one.

I pushed them away again. No, no they couldn’t have this night. Maybe tomorrow night, but not tonight. I leaned in, kissing Karasu's jaw tenderly, smiling and resting my head against his shoulder. So. New order? I offered, flashing a 'please?" smile his way. So, I was thinking. Clothes first. I wont take long, at least, I don’t think so, I paused for a moment, thinking about my outfit again. If they had it, 100% yes. I would be in and out in a flash. I heard there's a new club in town. We could always grab something there. Unless you wanted to find something really quick first while I shopped. That’s not a problem. I stole a moment to kiss him again, We could have a little fun. I mean, I don’t know about you but generally I stay away from the human population. I don’t get out much. I shrugged. I hadn’t been around for a year, I only heard about the club from a few teens the night before, eve's dropping of course. Then, I mean clearly one of us is either going to grow bored of the joint, or pissed. I giggled. Probably me. Or maybe, cant just wait any longer Again, probably going to be me. We can always head back to my place, and take a nice shower. I also have a bed that is aching to be broken in, so please don’t hesitate. I snickered. I was really, really asking for it, wasn’t I? Ah well, he would like it no doubt. He seemed like the type that if anything, was lacking some action. As was I. Perhaps that was what made the sex so great. We both hadn't gotten in any in so long, it didn’t matter if we were like stupid fourteen year olds or our great grandparents. As long as we were getting some, we were happy! Ah well, I was content to settle on that, and I waited patiently for his response. I would have no issue if he said no, of course not. After all, I was most eager for our shower together, but, I still wanted to be flaunted. I had never actually been shown off, due to my dangerous love affair. Not by anyone I actually liked that was. I was more than happy to settle for whatever he wanted, in the end we were both getting some, so it was all a matter of how long he could wait.

Bared on your tomb
I'm a prayer for your loneliness
And would you ever soon
Come above onto me?
For once upon a time
On the binds of your loneliness
I could always find the slot for your sacred key
[/i]

I smirked at her comment before it dropped from my face. "Really now? I'm not the one who instigated all of this. I was being a good boy and minding my own business while I was schemeing." I chuckled softly. Oh yes, plotting the downfall of the entire vampire race except for those that swore their undying loyalty to me. All else could die, and then the mongrels would face my wrath followed shortly by the pathetic nephilim. All would be tried and most would be found wanting and they'd become my slaves, if they didn't die. Those that were worthy on the other hand, they would be free to join my clan, to not be down-trodden like the rest. I eyed the girl. I would be saddened if she decided to fight me in the end. She had a spirit that I was starting to love with a fiery passion that matched my own. Perhaps I should cut her a deal later on? Perhaps, I'd have to think on it though. After all, if this was just going to be a brief little fling before she turned on me I didn't feel like dealing with the hassles later on. Call me lazy but I prefered to think of it as being tactical in the war I would soon be waging. Though the old saying of keep your friends close and your enemies closer never fell on deaf ears, at least for me.
I chuckled at her comment. "Round two? Or is this an expansion pack? You know, new things are introduced and everything." I said with a smirk. I eyed her, rather sharply when she said she wouldn't be able to replace me fast enough. "Ducky, you can't replace me you'll always find another lacking in some way. It's such a blessing being one of a kind after all." I said with a grin that I knew exuded how much of an ass I could be. Don't like it? Hit the road, if I don't kill you first.
She relaxed though, pleased with my decision on being willing to wait for her to decide to tell me. As if it was only for her own comfort. I knew even talking about her past was likely to bring memories of Asami to assault my mind and it wouldn't have been good. I refused to be reduced to a sniveling, whining, pathetic little cowardly worm I'd been when I'd first lost her, before the loss and shock had twisted into anger and hatred. The very same anger and hatred that drove me to wanting to basically obliterate my species. If she knew of my hatred I doubted she'd be so trusting of me like she was though. I was forced from my bitter thoughts when she spoke, stating she would make me wait the millennium. "I think that'll come down to who's memory is the best no? I mean either one of us might forget at any time after all." I said with a small little laugh. She seemed to be thinking about something and I leaned towards her, kissing her lightly. "But I'll make you a deal, you tell me your story and I'll tell you mine." I said with a rather sincere little smile as I pulled away. I had had five thousand years to get over the loss of Asami, it still tore my heart to shreds to think about her, and what this girl and I had done, but I could at least cope with it. I doubted I'd tell her what I'd been reduced to after my loss though. I still had some issues with how the loss of one person had ruined me. Well, actually it hadn't ruined it, it'd made me who I was today compared to the actually rather sweet and obedient boy I'd been. Amazing what happens at times no? Perhaps not.
I smiled at her comments, especially the one where she'd stated she'd given the most interesting reasons why we were going to hell before mentioning she was sure I could be snuck past the front gates of hell and it would be amusing to see me take over the place. "You could always include being gluttons for lust no doubt." I said with a grin before it dropped. I don't think she really knew how close to a living hell I'd been though. "Hell seriously won't take me, I was nearly there once, it's also how I found out the sun doesn't affect me." I said, my tone edging towards being considered sullen. "Plus Satan knows he can't stand against me. I don't give up so easily." I said with a small chuckle, trying to get rid of my rather sour mood that had appeared so suddenly.
I smiled at her comments. Seemed we both enjoyed having banter that we both could throw back and forth with. This was something I did miss. Asami had her moments, but more often than not our relationship had been more physical compared to intellectual. "He likes to keep others guessing, never quite knowing exactly what he'll do next, says it gives him a bit of a thrill when he really throws others for a loop." I said, chuckling. Yes, I rather did like this girl's companionship. She wasn't boring and could entertain me. I liked that in a girl. I smiled softly, leaning my head towards her when she asked if she had no say. "I think you've already had your say, like when you offered your body to me, and when you invited me for some fun later tonight." I said with a grin. She kept talking though, saying that I should just figure out which guy was going to be with her while she changed. "I don't think he'll really mind, especially since I'm already here and it seems he isn't too interested if he's letting a catch like you get away." Wow, could I be anymore of an idiot? Probably but I wouldn't go there, at least for right now I had an excuse. I really need to feast. I would feel sorry for my first few victims, and also for the very last one I would take.
She had been resisting my dare. I smiled inwardly at the thought. Of course she would, just to be difficult it seemed. Oh well. She did seem to appreciate that I caved first, at least her arms seemed to say so as they wound around my neck and I had to remember to not straighten up as I normally would. Otherwise I'd likely just lift her off the ground, which would be amusing, but I doubted if she'd actually appreciate it. Of course it was a damn good thing I didn't lift her up since she pulled away with a giggle and mentioned she might need to be getting a ladder. "I'm pretty sure you can make do with anything else that happens to be around, and once I get my strength back I don't think you'll have to worry about that too much." I said with a wink and a grin. Damn, I was just as bad as her, oh well.
She seemed....mildly offended? No that wasn't the right word. Perhaps amused was closer? Not exactly what I was looking for but I suppose it would suffice. I chuckled slightly at her comment. "Your point? I don't have to be thinking about my package all the time like someone it seems." I said with a teasing smile. Oh she was probably going to hit me for that comment but, like she said, she walked right into it. She wasn't the only one with a quick mind after all. I really was enjoying her company entirely too much, for both our sakes in the end. Oh well, I was doomed to an eternity here anyways, might as well have some fun and cause chaos where-ever I go right? Right, and I'd sure as hell enjoy every moment of it. I always did anyways, be it fighting, carousing the women, or just relaxing.
She seemed, surprised or something about my remark about fighting my instincts. Well, it was only for both our best interests in the end. I sniffed slightly at the end of her speech. "But ducky, my instincts are telling me to pin you to the ground and have my way again even though they also know I'm likely to pass out and be a poor little victim for any other being that thinks I'd be an easy target. We don't want that though now do we?" I asked, adopting a small pout. Surely she wouldn't want me gone yet?! Of course not, especially since even if I was to take her right now I knew I wouldn't be able to preform even an eighth as well as before. Perhaps she knew that as well? More than likely it was painfully obvious that I could barely stand let alone anything else that would require even more energy. "I never really feel my age, until people start wondering what it could possibly be like to actually have to fear the humans," I began with a shrug. "And I'll tell you, it sucked having to always hide your kills and everything for the fear of being hunted, I had it pretty easy though, at least once I got used to being in the sun." I shrugged again.
She seemed confused, or upset with me. What the hell was wrong with her? She twitched when I asked how she couldn't understand me. Well something was going amiss, and I had a feeling that if it wasn't resolved our plans would disintegrate, and I wouldn't be a happy camper if that happened. I'd be forced to take some paltry human girl and make sure I killed her, of course that part was never hard. Feigning the attachment to get her to trust me? That was the problem I had with most human girls. Such stupid beings, of course they weren't blessed to be a vampire like I was. I had the random urge to make a companion, just to toy with one for a couple of nights before ending their existence. It would be a fun little past-time if I didn't have anything else come up.
She frowned and the confusion was evident in her face. And not only confusion it seemed, anger seemed to almost be emanating from her frail little body. I sighed slightly, shifting my weight into one leg, though that perhaps wouldn't be a good idea later on, I'd probably loose my balance or something and go toppling over. Guess I'd just have to rely on my natural grace and balance, if I had any left to save me from a horribly embarrassing fall, especially since I knew even if the girl tried to catch me we'd both end up on the ground, her likely being crushed under my weight. I wasn't too keen on that idea, and I highly doubted she would be too. She spoke rather sharply and I sighed softly. "Sorry, I don't exactly have the best control over my mind at times and French and Italian are literally like my second nature at times." I said simply, almost trying to mollify her. I didn't know if it'd work, but I really didn't want her extremely calm, like I was. I wanted to have some fun alter on anyways.
She seemed upset with me, before I'd enfolded her in my arms at her response. Was that really the proper reaction from me since she likely didn't understand a single word I'd said? Perhaps not, but she seemed to like it so perhaps she did understand and her knowledge just wasn't as broad as mine. I couldn't blame her for that though. I was suddenly embarrassed by my words and actions. Likely as not I'd never translate what I'd said to her, even under pain of death or something else serious like that. I smiled slightly even as I felt her heart beat in a rather erratic pattern. Perhaps she really did understand what I'd said and felt the same? What a pair of goons we were.
She was upset again, and it was my fault in a way. Actually it was her fault if I really cared to go that far, but I'd be a good boy and stay quiet for now. It seemed to work a bit too. Amazing no? I mean the fact that I could read people considering I'd literally spent nearly four thousand years hiding from the population. You want to be a hermit? Become immortal and then go spend a few centuries alone. Otherwise don't come crying to me that you feel alone. I fought away my bitter thoughts with little success until I felt her lips on me again. Ah we were too similar if we could read each other so easily already. I suppose it wasn't too much of a bad thing though. Of course it could potentially be a problem, especially if I had to fight her in the end. I chuckled slightly at her comment. "Never said it was a problem now did I?" I asked with a little smile.
She seemed to agree with me that we had been lingering too long. I was actually pretty eager to get out of the forest. I was ready to go, but she kept talking, asking about a change to the plans. "That sounds to be pretty interesting actually, and it'll be like taking candy from a baby with feeding as well." I mused for the most part. I'd have to feed before heading to the club first, so I could actually be considered lucid enough to get in. Ehh, she wanted to get clothes and it would take nothing to grab some passerby on the street and drain them. She seemed amused by my gesture though. What? She didn't like how I was treating her? No, she did like it. She was a good girl though and took my offering. Good. I could deal with this. She knew exactly when to obey, even if I didn't have to say anything. Oh this was working entirely too well. Perhaps I should be worried about the ease of this. Yet I really didn't really care, since I could handle anything thrown at me. I really did love being me at times.
She wanted to change the plans, and I really didn't mind. As long as I got my food in the end. Yeahh, I really was a typical male. Oh well. At least I could deal with the promise of a little fun being rescinded. I was content for right now, of course I would end up being furious with the girl if she took back that promise. I'd make sure to discipline her as well. One doesn't break their promises to me of all beings. "I'll just grab a quick bite while you're shopping, otherwise they might not let me in." I said with a light chuckle. "Why don't we take things one step at a time? Clothes, club and food, shower, bed." I said with a smile. Of course the shower and bed might end up together. "Now can we go? Otherwise we might get interrupted again by another idiot, and I rather don't feel like dealing with an upstart." I said with a smirk. I really didn't want another fight to break out, at least not until my appetite sated.[/size]
