~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


She didn’t know why she was there. It just seemed as if this place was her only haven. She could be anyone, and no one had to know the real her. She could hide behind fake identities and they wouldn’t hunt her. She came here whenever something was eating at her and she would hide in a dark corner and enjoy her drink. With her career spiraling because of the recent cuts, she’s been in here almost everyday this weak, drowning her worries of losing her job in alcohol.
Often times, men would come over to get her attention, and her body, but she would always ignore them, not interested in what they had offered her. A kiss wouldn’t solve her problems. Deep down she knew that drinking didn’t help either, but it was the only way for her to escape reality. Both mentally and physically, even though she always woke up the next morning with a splitting headache. No. it wasn’t a headache, more like a migraine. And every morning she would curse and swear that she would never have another drink, and then she would find herself in the same spot that night.
The bar was always brightly lit with shades of blue, purple, red and other colours, not the bright ones, but the gothic ones. She shifted her eyes up from her drink and scanned the room filled with darkly clothed men and women. The leather shined as light passed over it. She watched how they danced, bodies touching, probably fully unaware and uncaring who their partners were, because after tonight, they’d probably never look at them again. After scanning the room for awhile, she saw a man that caught her eye. He was different. He was standing up against the wall watching everyone who was dancing with almost glazed over brown eyes. As if he knew he was being watched, he sharply turned his head and their eyes locked.
She gasped and quickly turned her head away, feeling her cheeks burn because of the blood rushing to them. He smirked. She looks luscious. I hope her blood is as well... he thought before walking calmly to where she was seated.
Her mind lingered on the shape of his enticing form in his tight leather pants and shirt. His calf-length boots were covered in what seemed to be buckles. Then her mind wandered onto what she was wearing. Her boots almost the same as his, but much longer, reaching almost past her knees. Her tight black tank-top and fairly short leather mini-skirt were half covered with a long black leather coat, reaching to the back of her knees. Her eyes dropped back down to her drink, as she remembered that the glass was almost empty, save for a couple drops lingering on the bottom.
“Would you like another?” the voice rang through her ears. It was obviously male, the tone was deep.
“What?!” She asked startled. “Um… no thanks...” She replied. God, I am such an idiot! “Um... No thanks”?? That’s so retarded.
“Are you sure?” the voice asked. She hadn’t looked up to see who it was and had no intention to. She just nodded before answering.
“Yeah, I don’t need another.” She said shakily. She was seriously hoping it wasn’t that man from the dance-floor for fear of him being mad because she was caught staring. She was going to get up and leave when she felt him sit next to her and place his hand on her chin. He slowly lifted her head up until their eyes met. He stared into her deep green orbs and almost fought a gasp. She’s gorgeous! He thought as his eyes quickly flickered over the rest of her body, taking note on her considerably large breasts. A smile played about his lips as he caught a sense of fear in her eyes.
She didn’t know what was going on, but the next thing she knew, he had his lips pressed to hers. Her face flushed again as he brought their bodies closer. This man had a strange affect on her. She felt a desire burning in her, unaware the he did as well. What is she doing to me? I feel so... weird. I want her. He thought. He broke the kiss quickly.
“Do you want to dance?” he asked calmly.
“Oh, I’m not very good. I…” she started
“Nonsense. Just come with me.” He said, before taking her hand and leading her out onto the floor. Almost instantaneously, she got into the rhythm of the song and started dancing, unaware that occasionally, her body would brush up against his. Deep inside, he loved the feel of her body, and moved even closer to her in hopes of her touching him more often. And his plan worked perfectly. He smiled each time her body touched his. He brought his lips to her ear and whispered a question to her.
“My name’s Eiri. What’s yours?”
“Keira.” She whispered back. With the answer to his question, he grabbed her hips and brought her even closer. She kept in rhythm with the song, but more forcefully swung her hips and he moaned when she pressed her body to his, not being able to possibly get closer. At least not here…. He kissed her neck and she smiled, before pulling her body away from his. She’s a good little temptress... Eiri thought as he saw her move her body even further away. Somehow, he couldn’t stand to let her small frame slip away from him and quickly moved closer to her.
Which, in time, he would find out wasn’t such a hot idea. She smiled gently and forced their bodies together, riling up emotions in him he hadn’t felt since he died. He wanted nothing but to grip her and never let her go. Never let anyone take her away from him. He felt his desire for her grow inside him and wanted to take her to his apartment and make her his but fought against the idea.
“I have to go.” The words haunted him. How could she leave him? How will he be able to let her go? He wanted her with him, but he didn’t know why. She just…. She just sent feelings through him he’s never felt before.
“Why?” he asked.
“I have work tomorrow and if I’m late, I’ll be fired, and I won’t be able to keep the payments on my apartment. I’m sorry.” She said and turned to leave. He watched her back then his eyes widened when he saw her spin around and press her lips to his. “Maybe I’ll be here tomorrow night. Come looking for me.” She said seductively before turning and going home. He felt as if he would melt on the spot as he watched her hips swing slightly as she walked. He would wait all night for a chance to see her again. After she had left, he had led some woman out to an alley next to the club. He gently kissed her lips before moving his lips to her neck. He pulled back dug his fangs into her neck, letting the crimson fluid run down her neck before lapping it up with his tongue and sucking the rest of her blood through the two wounds on her neck, savoring the taste of her life force.

The next day in her office, Keira was telling her friends, Atsuka and Sakura, about her night. The girls giggled like they were still in high school as Keira re-capped the entire evening.
“So I take it you had a good time, huh Keira?” Atsuka added after the story was over. Sakura was married, so she had no interest in the guy, but said that she was happy that her friend had finally “found someone” as she called it. Atsuka was still dating, like Keira, but wasn’t as confident as she was, so she barely ever got dates. They’re all twenty, but Sakura found the man of her dreams while they were still in collage, and they never fought. And that’s a feat. Then they’re boss came around.
“Girls!! Why are you slacking off??! We have to get this project done by the end of the month!! If you don’t get to work now, you’re all FIRED!!!!” he said, ruining their moment. Quickly the three women stopped their break, and continued working.

That night, Keira was upset and tired for being held 2 hours after she was supposed to get out. Sometimes she wondered why she worked there because her boss was a jerk, but remembered that until she could find a better job, she couldn’t quit because she had expenses. She swirled her drink around in the glass, watching the ice spin and hit the sides. Then she heard Eiri’s voice.
“What’s the matter? You look depressed. Are you okay?” He asked, concern filling his voice, replacing his cold tone.
“My boss threatened to fire me!” she said as she started crying. “If I lose my job, I’ll have no place to live!” she said before jumping into his arms, without even noticing. She cried into his shoulder, and he started to panic because he didn’t know what to do. He just wrapped his arms around her. He felt her body ease into his arms and she stopped crying shortly after. “Thank you.” She whispered into his ear. She licked the pale skin on his neck before moving her lips to his. He smirked against her lips before forcing them apart with his own and explored her mouth with his tongue. He could tell she was surprised by his sudden action, but it was a welcome gesture. But he wanted her, no, he needed her. But instead of rushing her, and risking her affection, he pulled her onto the dance floor. She felt happy now that she was with him. She had her back pressed to his chest and had her arms around his neck, tangling her fingers in his gorgeous brown hair. She smiled up at him and Eiri could take it no more. He spun her around quickly and whispered into her delicate ear, the warm breath flowing over it made her blush.
“Come with me.” He said seductively. He led her out the door of the club and to his apartment. She had zoned out, until she realized where she was. I can’t do this... I’m not sure if I can... what if... she thought. He locked the door to his room and gently pressed her body up against it.
“I can’t… I look like hell, I…” she started, but was silenced by his lips against hers. Her slipped his hand under her shirt and heard a small gasp escape from her lips. He quickly and easily slipped the small tank-top up over her head and tossed it to the floor. Her face started to turn red as his lips traveled downwards, and she remained calm until he took her breast into his mouth. A small moan escaped her lips this time as he bit her gently. He pulled away and she brought his lips up to meet hers. She slowly unzipped his leather shirt before pealing it off his sweat-drenched body. A breeze blew in and gently tossed her hair around her face, before chilling both their bodies. He pressed his body against her small frame and pressed his lips to hers. She rested her hands on his hips, slowly and unnoticeably moving them closer to her own. Eventually his hips were firmly pressed against hers and he let out a soft moan at the pleasure of her body touching his. She could feel his erection through his tight leather pants and heard him moan when she brushed against him.
He didn’t know how he would be able to make it without her. She was all he could think about lately and his older brother was worried because he hadn’t been eating. He finally had his chance. He pulled his lips from hers and grabbed her hands, moving them away from his hips and held them over her head. He began kissing her chest before leading his lips down her smooth stomach. When he reached the edge of her pants he let go of her wrists and slowly unfastened the ties keeping the shorts from falling off her petite frame. Quickly he had stripped her down to nothing. He gently carried her over to his bed and laid her on her back. He crawled over her and captured her lips with his keeping her occupied while he removed the rest of his clothing.
He gently touched her sides with the tips of his fingers. She pulled away from his lips.
“…Don’t tease…” she forced out before he attacked her bruised lips once more. He fought back a moan as he felt Keira’s hands explore his body. He smiled devilishly before looking into her eyes. The vibrant green orbs reflected fear and reluctance, but gave him permission to do anything that he wanted, though he knew of no force that could stop him. Eiri played his fingers about her body and smiled against her neck when she gasped as his fingers ran up in-between her thighs.
“Keira…” he started, but stopped. He didn’t know what to say. He looked into her eyes again. They were pleading.
“Eiri, please… take me. I’m yours.” She said. Her breathing had become a pant. Something inside him screamed that he needed her and she needed him. He spread her legs further apart and thrust into her. He heard her cry out in pain and arch her back, while he moaned at the feel of being inside her body. The warmth of her body engulfed him and he felt something that he had never felt before. She gripped his body as he slammed into her again. The sound of her voice as she cried out drove him. Eiri kept his rhythm, thrusting into her and hearing her delicate voice ring out in pain and pleasure each time. He stopped momentarily when her small voice pleaded with him again.
“Eiri, please… faster…” she pulled him down to kiss him and he drove his tongue into her mouth once more. Eiri obeyed Keira’s request and continued, but faster. She arched her back and moaned each time. Soon he felt her body tighten around him and cried out before pulling out of her body and resting beside her. Her eyes reflected many emotions, pleasure, contentment, but only one sent him back. Love. He had never been loved by anyone, and didn’t care, but now, he felt, that he would die if she never wanted to see him again. Do I love her? He asked himself. Yes I do... he soon realized.
It took them a few minutes to recover and Keira spoke first.
“Eiri… I… love you…” she said hesitantly. Please, I hope he doesn’t hate me... that he wasn’t just using me... she was about ready to cry. But she realized that she’ll love him no matter what, even if it kills her. He seemed taken aback by her statement and her heart sank. She looked at him and saw that he wanted to agree, but was embarrassed. She chuckled lightly when he clumsily changed the subject. It was around 3:00 in the morning.
“Keira, don’t you have to go to work today?”
“No, today’s Saturday.” She said as she smiled at him.
“Oh, well you should go home and get some sleep. Okay?”
“Okay… but I…”
“Don’t worry. I’m not going to disappear. I’ll see you tonight.” He watched her as she quickly dressed herself and took this time to quickly get himself dressed as well, even though he only put on his leather pants. She turned and bounded over to him and kissed him passionately before leaving.
“Good night.” She added and waved before closing the door behind her and happily walking down the hall where she almost bumped into some man. The same man knocked on Eiri’s door after she had left. Eiri slowly opened the door and almost shut it; the second man was too strong.
“Onii-chan. What do you want?”
“Who was that? Why did she come out your apartment?” Eiri’s older brother demanded.
“That’s Keira.”
“She’s a mortal!! What are you doing with her??!” Eiri remained silent. He couldn’t look his older brother in the eye. “You love her don’t you?” Eiri’s brother stated while grinning sheepishly. “Why didn’t you tell me?” he asked this time out of concern.
“Because I thought that you would get mad…”
“I’m your older brother, you can trust me.”
“I know Jun, but I… I’m not sure is all.” Eiri stated, even though he was lying. He knows for a fact that he loves her.
“Oh, well, come to me if you need advice. I’ll always be here for you.”

For the next couple of nights, Keira went to the club, but she didn’t see Eiri, not like she expected him to be there. Her friends had come with her because they needed a break from their jobs as well, and they had high hopes of meeting this guy that she had fallen in love with. She would stand, leaning against the wall, scanning the crowd and those who entered, but she couldn’t find Eiri. Atsuka kept encouraging her to forget about him and find someone else, but she refused.
“Come on Keira. He’s not coming back. Just forget about him, okay?” Atsuka said.
“Shimatta!! No! I can’t just forget about him!” Keira screamed before running out of the front doors. As she ran she stopped by the entrance to an alley. She thought that she had heard Eiri’s voice. I must be imagining it... but as curiosity got the best of her, and she started walking down the alley, keeping a look-out for anyone and not making noise, the voice sounded more and more like Eiri’s. In front of her, she saw Eiri with a woman, their lips locked, their bodies touching and her back pressed against the wall. Nani? She watched in jealousy as he kissed this other woman. Then she saw him bear his fangs and dig them into her neck, clamping a hand down on her mouth to stop her from screaming. She watched as her skin faded to grey as the blood drained out of her body.
Keira saw the body fall limply into the heaps of garbage and gasped when she saw the lifeless woman’s hand fall and hit the cold ground beneath her. Eiri looked up to lock eyes with her and she turned and ran. She kept running until she felt his arms wrap around her trembling body.
“What are you?!” she screamed.
“I’m a vampire.”
“A what??! Vampires… they don’t… they don’t exist… No!!!”
“Keira, I’m a vampire.” He repeated. He soon felt her relaxed, unconscious, body lay limp in his arms. He brought her back to his apartment and placed her on his bed and covered her body with a blanket. After awhile, she awoke. The feel of a blanket on her body and a quick scan of the room assured her that she was in Eiri’s room. She turned her head to see him lying next to her. His eyes were closed. She reached out her arm and touched his face. Feeling her warm touch, eiri opened his eyes to look into hers.
“Do you…” Eiri started.
“Do I what?”
“Do you still love me, even after knowing what I am?”
“Eiri, I will always love you, no matter what you are.” Then a thought hit Keira. Eventually I’ll die, and I’ll leave him forever. “Eiri… make me like you.”
“What?”
“I want to be a vampire like you, so I can be with you forever.”
“Do you realize what you’re asking me? You want to be damned?! For what reason?”
“To spend all eternity with you.” He looked into her pleading eyes and saw that she truly wanted to be with him. That she truly loved him and would give the greatest sacrifice, her life, to be with him.
“Keira, this will hurt.” He said. He brought his lips to her neck and gently caressed her soft skin with them. He hesitantly drove his fangs into her neck. She could feel her life slipping away, but she was with eiri. When almost all of her blood was depleted, he sliced his wrist and told her to drink the blood pouring from the fresh wound. He watched as her tongue lapped up the crimson liquid and swallow it before her heart stopped and she died. He had very little time to get her to her apartment before the sun would come up, because she was too weak to hold up against it. He rested her now limp body into her bed before returning to his house.

Eiri had spent all day thinking about her and he couldn’t get any sleep. He had to go and see her, but his pale skin stood no chance against the vividness of the midday sun. His body ached for hers, but he could do nothing. Deep inside, he was cursing himself for making her a damned creature like himself. He wanted to go back and refuse her, but then reality sank in and she would’ve died eventually and she would leave him forever. His body convulsed in fear at the thought of being alone again, without her. He felt selfish that he had turned her into a damned being so he would have her with him forever. She would never be able to rest for eternity and it was his fault, but it was what she had asked.
He finally decided to go see her after the sun had set and it was safe for him to go out. After making his decision, he slowly drifted to sleep with a dream filled with thoughts of her.

Hours later, at 10:00 pm, Eiri awoke and quickly dressed himself and almost couldn’t fight back his urge to just jump on her and lock his lips with hers. Over in Keira’s apartment, she rolled back and forth in her bed, swearing at the time and how the clock had betrayed her. Ever since she fell in love with Eiri, she was up all night and slept all day. She knew that she couldn’t go to work anymore unless she took the night shift because of what she had become, and plus, nights were the only time she could see Eiri, so she quit her job. Eventually, she would run out of money and have to find a new place to live. She hoped that Eiri would still love her then and she could live with him. If he didn’t, she would stand in the sun and burn herself. She pulled the pillow over her head and fought back a scream of frustration.
“Why is it that I can’t get him off my mind?!” she yelled into the pillow. She placed the pillow in its rightful spot and rested her head on it. She closed her eyes and tried to sleep. Then she heard footsteps. She dismissed them as just her imagination or just a dream. Then the footsteps continued and she rolled and tossed and turned as she tried to sleep. Ultimately, she gave up on trying to sleep and just laid on her back with her eyes closed. She soon felt a familiar hand play with her hair and trap her lips in a kiss. Her eyes slowly widened to see Eiri’s beautiful orbs looking into her own. She softly laughed as he quickly moved back and tried to act innocent.
“Keira…” he whispered as he ran his fingers through her beautiful brown locks, slightly darker than his own hair color. A smile was present on his lips as he said her name.
“Why can’t I stop thinking about you?” she asked, as if concerned.
“Maybe you love me…” He said with a hopeful tone in his voice.
“Yes. I think it’s because I love you.” She said brushing his cheeks with her fingertips.
“What do you want to do?” He calmly asked her. She wrapped her arms around his neck.
“You could hold me and tell me all night how much you love me.” She stated. His eyes turned cold and he seemed almost angry with her. “I-I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it…” she choked out; fear of him hating her almost clogged her throat. She let go and pulled the blanket over her head, hiding herself from him. She felt the blanket being tugged of her body and looked at him.
“I… love you…” he said, shyness almost muting his voice. She smiled deeply and wrapped her arms around him. He said the three words that mean the most to anyone in the entire world. She needed nothing more than to spend eternity with the man that meant the most to her. She pulled his frame under the blankets and snuggled up to his now bare chest. He knew eventually he would teach her how to feed, but that could wait. He had all the time in the world to teach her. Right now he just wanted to lie there with her by his side. Her body occasionally brushed up against his as they slept.

He had spent so much time by himself, but now, when he awoke, he can count on seeing her beautiful face glow with her love for him, and that would be all he needed to make it through eternity.
