Hidden Fangs (Arekushisu and Me, R, +18, Mature, Private)

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Kristopher just looked at Eric, smirking, teeth shining and glinting. "Afraid? Angry?" He murmurs softly, moving close, knowing the other was becoming weaker by the minute as fatigue washed over him. The numbing sensation would soon make the pain go away, make the human's body completely unmovable. He'd only be able to lay there, helpless, defenseless, and at Kristopher's mercy. "Now you know what I am. Are you still going to say that you won't hate me? That you won't despise me?" Leaning over, he runs his tongue along Eric's skin, cleaning off the blood that had dripped down, the wound already beginning to heal, due to Kristopher's saliva.

 

When he leans back, he sighs softly, running his fingers through his hair. He knew he couldn't allow Eric to remember this, not just yet. However... "Are you going to tell? If so, I'm going to erase your memories. However...if you don't tell, I'll hold back on the memory erasing. After all...this is what you wanted. You WANTED to know what I was." He looks to the other, knowing the human was probably exhausted, and moments away from passing out. He starts to cloth the other by simply tapping his skin, clothing appearing to cover him.

[Arekushisu]

Eric looked down crying softly his body shaking and he couldn't move, he got even more terrified and he said Kris's name softly. He closed his eyes tightly as he felt Kris lick him and he winced lightly scared he was going to bite him again. He didnt say anything his mind was too focused on his lover bloody and such. His hands were shaking and his eyes were heavy, he simply shook his head at if he would say anything to anyone and then he closed his eyes a moment. He blinked them open and he groaned lightly in pain, he smiled softly even though he looked like hell and his entire head was in pain he smiled. It was a loving one and he looked up at Kris, his horrible look of evil and all and he said softly, "I love you Kristopher.."

 

It was so soft no human could have heard it but he knew better than to believe that Kris wouldn't be able to. Everything made since now, everything was explainable now. He closed his eyes and his hand moved to his stomach resting there as he slowly began to fade in and out of consciousness do to the loss of blood and all the pain. He was scared of Kris, however he was only scared because it had hurt like hell and he hadnt expected it at all. He still loved Kris he just needed time to wrap his head around the fact Kris drank blood to stay alive.

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Hearing Eric's whisper, he frowns, shaking his head softly. He just didn't understand why Eric was like this. A wrapping of black colored bandages cover the wound on Eric's neck. Moving, he shifts the other and secures him, before moving to the front seat. He was beginning to settle, and return to normal, deciding to get the other to a bed. Sensing the instability of Eric's mind, he drives faster, getting home being the main thing on his mind.

 

It didn't take long, and they'd arrived at Kristopher's mansion, parking the car, and carries Eric to Kristopher's bedroom. Laying the human on the bed, he makes sure Eric was comfortable, gently kissing him to make the pain go away for the most part. "I'm so sorry...I didn't mean to frighten you.." With that done, he goes into the bathroom and washes up in the shower. He takes his time, giving Eric time to sleep, not wanting to wake him. He couldn't believe he'd ended up biting Eric, after all his effort of holding back.

[Arekushisu]

Eric moved lightly groaning as he felt the pain run through his throat and he instantly shot awake. He sat up in the bed and he looked around fear in his blood but when he noticed he was alone he laid back down his breathing evening. He was still exhausted so he closed his eyes his hands going to the bandages on his neck. He instantly remembered everything and he closed his eyes in fear. He could hear the shower running and he instantly knew that Kris was here. He felt around the bed and he shivered at the chill of the air around him.

 

He was, less frightened than before and his neck wasn't hurtig as much as before but it was a dull pain. He pulled the covers up to his shoulders and he waited patiently for Kris to get out of the shower. He took the time to think about what all had happened, and he knew for a fact that he cared about Kris just the way he had said so in the car. If anything Eric was even more curious about vampires and about the myths and religion, which were false and which were real.

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Sensing that Eric now awake, Kristopher turns off the water and gets out of the shower. Drying off and getting dressed, he steps out into the bedroom rubbing his hair with a towel in the process. Looking to Eric, he pauses his hand, before continuing seconds later. For a moment he says nothing, going to sit in the chair set by the bed, not wanting to push/his boundaries. Placing the towel down, he clears his throat, before looking up at Eric. "How are you feeling? You should probably eat, it will make you feel better. And before you start asking questions, don't. I promised I'd tell you, but in time. Maybe I'll answer one or two, but that's after you eat."

 

He sighs softly, rubbing the back of his neck. Looking away, he bites his bottom lip, feeling a bit more nervous than he probably should have been feeling. He could feel no hatred, contempt, or any other negative emotion towards him from Eric, but even so. For the first time he'd allowed one of his 'prey' to retain their memories, something he's had never done before. Plus, for some reason, he felt more guilty than usual. "I, um...I hope you can forgive me. I am sorry that I hurt you like this..." Rubbing his arm, he looks away, a look of regret and sorrow on his face. "I...I really am...sorry..."

[Arekushisu]

Eric heard the shower click off and he sighed a moment, before he heard Kris walk into the room. For a moment nothing was spoken and nothing was even mentioned. He heard him clear his throat and speak up, Eric moved and sat up in bed the best he could. He nodded to the idea of food pain on his face however he didnt say anything. Instead he listened to Kris until he was finished and then he spoke up not moving from his bed. "Kris...can you come here please.." he said softly and motioned to the spot that was in front of the bed next to him. He wasn't scared nor did he feel any form of fear from Kris. Looking at him now he was the same boy Eric had fallen for and nothing was different about him other than his diet.

 

Eric hated seeing the pain on Kris's face, he swallowed his own and sighed, "If you don't come over here I'm gonna get out of bed and come walk to you. And thats not a good idea cause my legs feel like they weigh a hundred pounds." he said giggling softly making him wince. Words and laughing all hurt coming from his lips but he didnt say anything. He rested a hand on his throat and sighed, he was super hungry and his stomach growled lightly making him blush.

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Looking up, Kristopher was surprised when Eric told him to come over onto the bed, noticing the spot that had been motioned to. For a moment he didn't do anything, remained where he was in his seat, looking away again, but then looks over once more when Eric threatened to get up and come over to him, and it was indeed not a good idea at all, considering the condition the other was in at that moment. Sighing, he stands up and climbs up onto the bed, sitting down where Eric had pointed out, and glances up at the human, hearing the sounds from the other's stomach.

 

"I...uh, my mother should be here with food any second now..." And sure enough, right after he said this, a knock comes at the door, and then opens revealing Kristopher's mother, wearing a elegant and rather fancy white Victorian style dress, with red accents. In her hands was a tray filled with food and drinks, which she sets on the bed side table. Glancing at Kristopher, then to Eric and lastly to the bandage around Eric's neck, looking up to Eric's eyes, she smiles. "Enjoy your meal." She then leaves, closing the door quietly behind herself, her footsteps quickly hurrying away and fading.

 

Kristopher sighs softly, and picks up the tray, setting it so Eric could eat. "She knows..." He mutters, staring into a bowl of ham and vegetable soup, with a milky sauce. He didn't know what to think. His father he could handle, but his mother...she was unpredictable. You always had to keep on your toes around her with this sort of thing. Despite her calm, sweet, loving appearance and demeanor...she was...something else entirely from his father. Sighing again, he glances at Eric.

[Arekushisu]

Eric was about to say something but Kris slowly moves to him and he smiled softly moving kind of closer to him. He tilted his head hearing the door open and he waved to his mother as she sat down the tray. "Thank you." He said but she simply left right after and be tilted his head and shrugged. He nodding a thanks to Kris as he started to eat the soup going down easily however making his throat burn. He sat his spoon down and looked at the soup and pushed it away kind of. "I don't want to eat..." He said softly looking up at Kris.

 

"You know...Im not scared of you Kris.." He said softly looking down at the soup. "I'm not frightened anymore and I'm not even worried you'll do it again..I don't know why but I feel safe with you even after you did that. And...I know I don't want to leave your side. You're still the same guy that I fell for...you just.." He paused aomemt swallowing and then continued. "Your diet just changed from that of what I thought. I don't see you as a monster nor am I scared to be around you. So please stop looking like you kicked a puppy and smile." He leaned over and pecked his cheek. "You worry too much that you ruined something. When really you didn't ruin anything. You can't help it...and it was partially my fault it even happened so im to blame as well." He said smiling softly to the other male. "I told you I wasn't running away did I not?"

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Hearing everything that was said to him, he smiles just a tiny bit. It helped, hearing Eric say those things. He wasn't exactly sure what to say at that moment to what Eric had said, so instead picks up the spoon that had been set down. "You need to eat, instead of talking. If I have to...I'll force this food down your throat." It might have sounded harsh and rather cruel, but it was true. Eric needed to get some nutrients into his body, or he'd never get better.

 

His eyes turned to Eric's, a smirk on his lips. "And I'm not joking either." Picking up a piece of bread, tearing it and slowly moving it towards the others mouth, fighting back a chuckle of laughter. It was as if after hearing what Eric had said to him, those words, everything had changed, and Kristopher no longer felt as guilty. "So, I'm glad you don't hate me...I was worried you would, but now I know it was stupid, since knowing you...you'd never hate me. You're too sweet for that, and for some reason even after all that has happen, you still want to be with me."

[Arekushisu]

Eric groaned softly at the fact he was told to eat and he shook his head, "Kris it hurts...I don't wanna eat it..." He looked at the other male and he sighed taking a bite of the extended food and he chewed it thuroughly. He listened to him speak and he laughed softly swallowing, "Kris, I could never hate you...just at the time it really freaked me out..and I never expected it. though now everything kinda makes a lot of sense." He giggled lightly and sighed. "Please don't make me eat...it's hard to swallow it and I'm not all that hungry..." He said softly his fingers lacing with that of Kris's.

 

"Can I have something softer...? Like just non-chunky soup or something like that..." He asked softly his nose turning up at the food. He leaned his head against Kris's shoulder and he closed his eyes. "I'm still really sleepy...." He coughed lightly from his sore throat and lack of hydration. "You make me laugh...saying I'll hate you and stuff when I could never ever hate you. I'm sure you know how I feel about you so you shouldn't question my feelings for you." He said softly almost sleepiky.

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

"Like I said, I will shove it down your throat if you don't eat on your own." He forces Eric to sit up, not allowing the other to lean against him. This was all too common he'd come to find out, after biting someone. They were tired, didn't want to eat, and so on. Right now, he was in no mood to talk, he wanted to get Eric to eat, or the human's health would begin to deteriorate and no doubt end up sick. Picking up an empty glass, he pours some water, and held it out, not moving t until Eric took it and drank, before finding something a bit softer to eat, and easier to swallow. "Here, vanilla pudding, everyone likes this stuff. And look, it's got whipped cream." There was also some creamy cheddar soup, which he made Eric eat at least half a bowl full.

 

Only when he was satisfied did he set aside the tray, and let Eric lay down. A deep sigh escapes his lips, the words that had been said to him replaying in his mind continuously. "I guess you'll be staying here tonight. You shouldn't move around too much right now." With those words, he climbs off the bed and picks up the tray with the remaining food. "I'll be right back." Leaving the room, he heads to the kitchen, where he finds his mother baking. Placing the tray down, he turns to leave, until he feels a hand on his arm. "What is it mother?" He asks, glancing at her. She looks at him, her expression unreadable, and for a moment she says nothing, releasing him from her grip.

 

Just as he steps away, she speaks up. "Keep him safe. You know the darkness of you and I. Make sure to keep that in mind. You put him in a terrible danger, and now it's your responsibility to keep him out of harm. From others, and from yourself." She falls silent, and he leaves, returning to his room, now having those words bouncing in his head alongside Eric's. Stepping into his room, he locks the door behind him, and looks over at Eric. Yeah...he'd definitely put the human in danger. But there was no way he'd allow anything to hurt Eric.

[Arekushisu]

Eric groaned lightly and fell sort of when Kris made him sit up and he sighed blinking his eyes open. He took the water gratefully and he drank all of it slowly yet quickly all at the same time. He looked over at Kris and he groaned again at the food but took the pudding and the soup happily. He ate all the pudding and half of the soup before he told Kris he was full. He was happy that Kris allowed it to slide this time and he smiled softly. He laid down and nodded hearing that Kris would be back soon. He closed his eyes yawning softly his head resting on the pillow, he sniffed and he smelled Kris and he happily would stay there forever.

 

He wasn't waiting long till Kris came back into the room and he sat up, "I can go home if you want me to...I wouldn't mind. You would just have to take me there and carry me." he laughed softly and pat the bed next to him. "But if i'm staying will you let me sleep on you..?" he asked softly almost embarrassed to ask the question. His cheeks were a light pink and he was nervous, he understood why Kris was acting the way he was but he didnt like it at all. He didnt know if he was supposed to seem more scared or angry, but he wasn't at all. He wasn't angry, frightened, he wasn't really anything but lonely. He didnt like the distance but he knew Kris was giving him time to understand what had happened and figure out what he was going to do about it all.

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Kristopher raises an eyebrow at the question asked of him. "Sorry, but no. You can't. I unfortunately have things I need to take care of. You'll be sleeping in here though, so no worries, okay?" He sits down on the bed, sighing softly. Rubbing the covers with his hand, he wasn't looking forward to what he was going to do, but he'd put it off for too long. Clearing his throat, he moves closer, he checks the bandage around Eric's neck. Pulling it off gently, he makes the other move so he could see it, noting how it was healing. Holding out his hand, a damp cloth forms in his hand, which he uses to wipe off the wound, drying it, then like before, touches Eric's neck, making a black bandage form to wrap around it, covering the bite up once more.

 

Once more, he clears his throat again. "However..." He runs his fingers through his hair. Looking to Eric now, a faint blush on his cheeks, he continues. "If you'd like, I'll stay until you fall asleep." He pauses again. Looking away quickly, before speaking up once more. "But don't worry, I will be back before you wake up. Who knows, you may wake up to me laying next to you." He grins a little, winking playfully. Even after all that's happened...somehow he was able to manage to tease a little.

[Arekushisu]

Eric's smile failed him and he nodded lightly. He sighed lightly and he moved his legs to get comfortable but then he felt Kris's touch and he blushed lightly closing his eyes he felt him touch his wound and he winced lightly. "Mm...does it look better?" he asked and seeing the nod from Kris he smiled lightly. "It hurts like a bitch..." he said under his breath before he looked away from Kris his fingers playing with the blankets as he pulled them up to his waist even more. He really wished that Kris could stay with him and allow him to lay on him but he knew considering the circumstances it made sense.

 

He blushed lightly and he looked over at Kris, he looked beautiful his strong arms raised as he ran a hand through his hair and a blush on his cheeks Eric blushed right back and he smiled softly. He leaned over and laid down his eyes growing heavy, "I would really like that a lot...if you would stay with me least till Ive fallen asleep.." he said yawning softly as his head went down onto the pillow and his hand rested next to Kris but didnt touch him. He wanted to ask him what it was that he was going to do but he knew that that may not be the best thing to do at that moment, it seemed Kris wanted nothing more but his space. He didnt touch him and he wouldn't until Kris did so himself, he wanted to allow him the time to get used to the relationship they had, he didnt think Kris had ever told anyone about his race, so he could imagine the trust he was being given.

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Kris just sat there, glad that Eric understood, and didn't push it further. "I'll stay until you've fallen asleep. I promise." His hand moves over the sheets of the bed, to rest on top of the other's, his thumb rubbing gently over the skin, sighing softly as he did so. "Also, I'll be here next to you when you wake up in the morning as well." Leaning back against the head board, he rests his head against the back, closing his eyes a bit. "Tomorrow is...Thursday righ?" He asks, glancing over at Eric. If so, on Friday they had a half day, then the week after the next was cut in two, because summer vacation was after that week.

 

"So, what are your plans for summer vacation?" He asks, trying to make the other sleepy with conversation. He wasn't looking forward to it, but he knew...now that he'd finally bitten the human, he would HAVE to talk to his father. And no doubt his mother as well. And he truly didn't want Eric to hear anything. Considering how curious humans were, he had the slightest feeling if Eric stayed awake when he talked to his parents, Eric might try to listen in. So, he'd make sure the other was fully asleep before doing anything.

[Arekushisu]

Eric blushed lightly at the smallest gesture as Kris's hand touched his. He closed his eyes and smiled almost like a school boy, "mmhm..thursday.." he said softly sleep written in his words but he fought to stay awake. He hung on the words kris said to him and he didint notice till recently that he was completely in love with this boy and he didnt think he could get out of it even if he tried to. He blinked his eyes open hearing about summer and he sighed, "I'm not sure...usually I stay home and just do nothing but housework..." he said dread in his voice and he sighed. "I really don't want to do that this year...but I just now noticed how close it was.." he said softly and he closed his eyes again as they slowly began to get heavier and heavier. He squeezed Kris's hand and looked up at him the last time, "You're okay aren't you..?" he asked his fingers enjoying the feeling of Kris's thumb running over them.

 

He honestly didnt know what he would be doing for summer vacation, he assumed he would be spending a lot of time with Kris considering they were now openly with one another to everyone, even his mother. He wasn't stupid, he noticed the way his mother looked at him when she saw the bandage but he had pretended not to notice. He felt like Kris had done something he wasn't supposed to...specailly allowing him to keep his memories which she probably knew about as well. He hoped that Kris's parents would be forgiving and allow them to be with one another throughout the summer. His body seemed to grow heavy and he once again felt weak and sick, "I hope you are okay Kris.." he said softly his words slurring together slightly as he slowly began to drift in and out of sleep his hand tightly grasping Kris's as if he was scared he would leave if he let go.

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Will get a reply up as soon as possible. Sorry for making you wait. My life is really hectic right now.

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

"I don't know...Maybe I'll just plan something for the two of us, a getaway vacation...but we'll talk about that later..." Once Eric had fallen asleep, he pulled away from the unconscious human, and quietly left the room, after making sure that the other was comfortable; pulling up a cover over him, tucking him in, and giving him a quick kiss on the cheek. Once that had been taken care of, he leaves the room, closing the door securely behind himself, and, for extra measure of security and safety for Eric, locks the door behind himself. Taking the route down the hall towards his father's study, he takes a deep breath before knocking and entering the room when told to do so.

 

He looks to his father, who was sitting at his desk, and then to his mother, sitting upon an armchair. He had a bad feeling about this, and braced himself for the worst. However, as he stood there, nothing was said, and silence enveloped them. After a moment or two he clears his throat. "Um...weren't you going to talk to me about something?" He asks carefully, knowing he was treading on thin ice. "Yes, and no. We just wanted to give you...a warning. You already know the rules, so this is something a little extra." His father replies. "Yes, we don't want things to get complicated you see." His mother adds. "And?" Kristopher prods.

 

"The rule is, if you tell him more than he already knows...we'll kill him. That or just never let him out of our sight, ever again." His father looked hard at Kristopher, and Kris just stares back. After a long minute went by, Kristopher just shrugs. "Fine." Turning around, he heads back to the door. "Is that all?" Husband and wife look at each other for a moment. "Yes, that's all for now." With that obvious confirmation he could leave, Kristopher exits the room. Even though not much had been said out loud, long conversation had gone on inside their heads, lasting what would seem thirty minutes, even though it had appeared to be mere seconds.

 

It had gone exactly like Kristopher had guessed, and as he walked slowly back to the room, he decided to wait, and after about an hour or so, he went back, got changed, and went to bed, though did not sleep, instead he lay there awake next to Eric, the conversation running over and over inside his mind, until the morning sun began to peek through the windows, and the sounds of song birds began to fill the air. Even then he didn't move, not bothering to get up and get dressed, as he was already wearing what he wanted to wear for that day. However, after a shot while, he nudged Eric, wanting to wake him, as they had class. "Eric...time to wake up."

[Arekushisu]

Eric slept soundly for the most part but about half way into his restless sleep he began to dream. Kris was there, and so was his mother whom was already dead. Eric was there as well and he honestly didnt know what was going on in the dream. Kris was talking to his mom about something and Eric was nodding like he knew, however he could hear nothing. No sound was leaving either of the persons mouths and he soon began to panic. He tried to move to Kris but that didn't work either, his body seemed to be glued to the spot and he stayed there. As his efforts seem to die the scene changed and he could hear the ruffling of feet. He smiled as his hearing was restored and he was able to move.

 

He started to walk down the alley way which he was standing in, he could hear Kris's voice and a womans voice. He looked up and he tried to figure out where they were but he could not. He turned the corner and there was Kris. His body was covering that of a young girl, probably Eric's age and he was kissing her neck. Eric instantly felt a pain in his chest and he was about to cough when Kris turned around. Blood covered his lips and the kisses had been bites, the woman fell to the ground and Eric stared at it his body shaking. "K-kris..?" he asked gently in his dream as he felt hard hands on his arms having not seen his boyfriend move.

 

He jumped as Kris snarled and growled, he looked into his eyes and he did not find his lover there, he found an animal. Eric was scared, his body was trembling his eyes watering as the animal before him covered in Kris's skin leaned forward and started to kiss his neck gently. Eric's voice grew louder as the sobs wretched out of him, he knew what was coming, he would be like the corpse on the ground in moments. He felt the unmistakable pain of those long canines entering his neck and he screamed out his body pushing and shoving against Kris. "N-no please stop!" he screamed against him but he could feel his life being sucked away.

 

He sat up in bed tense and breathing hard as tears were falling down his face. No one was in the room and he didnt know what time it was. His hand had worked next to him trying to find Kris's but he didnt find anyone, he was the only one in the room. He whimpered lightly and he laid back down laying his head on Kris's side of the bed smelling in his scent. With the calming smell of something he knew he calmed down some and was able to drift back into a sleep. He didnt know how he slept nor what dreams he had the second time but he woke up to the gentle sound of Kris speaking and he blinked awake. He whimpered his throat dry and he smiled lightly. "Good morning to you too..." he sighed and rolled onto his stomach groaning. "When does it stop hurting..?" he asked gently looking up at Kris before he slid out of bed.

 

"What time till school starts? I need a shower.." he said lightly touching the ribbon around his neck and untying it. He moved a hand over his neck feeling the two scars and he looked up at Kris. "Its so strange...its healed but it still hurts.." he said gently and he sighed. He didnt know where he stood with Kris so he stayed to himself motioning to the shower as if asking to use it for a quick moment. He wanted to kiss him, his eyes travelled his body and he wanted him, despite what all had happened Eric was still into this vampire and he didnt care what he was, how he sustained himself, he just wanted to be with him. He would gladly be his blood bank if he asked rather than him having to kill people every night, he had put two and two together, the attacks that affected his father had been Kris. The same wound that appeared on his neck was on the victims as well, he wasnt stupid, and it didnt take him long to gather this information.

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Looking over at Eric, he smiles a little bit as the other greeted him in return. "Um, it should stop hurting soon, like in a couple hours. It shouldn't even be hurting still..." His eyes narrow, unsure as to what the problem was. "And as for when school starts, in an hour and a half, so you'll have to take a really quick shower..." He looked away real quick, before settling his eyes once more on the human. "I have some clothes you can wear, so don't worry about that." Once Eric was ready, he showed the other where everything was, and then left the bathroom, grabbing some clean clothes for Eric to change in to once he'd finished cleaning up.

 

Knocking on the door, he opens it after a few seconds. "I got the clothes here. Setting them on the counter." With that done, he leaves once more, and reenters his bedroom, sighing softly as he sat on the edge of the bed, waiting. His mind begins to wander, and after a moment, he drifts away, his consciousness floating into a place only he knew of. He looked awake, but he was far from being that.

 

Darkness surrounded him, and silence filled his ears. All he felt was his own body, cold and rather lifeless. His heart no longer beat, he could not breathe properly. It hurt, everything felt like a dull pain. Yes, in this world, he felt the way he knew he should, not quite dead, but definitely not alive either. As he walked the endless path of shadows, his eyes flickering this way and that, he wondered if he would ever feel more than this. Could he? He hoped so, but doubt filled his heart, his mind, his very being.

 

"I'm so...lonely..." He murmurs, both in his own world, and the one he shared with everyone else, the one he resided in physically, with his mother, and father, and even Eric. "Somebody...please save me..."

[Arekushisu]

Eric nodded noticing the small glances from Kris but he decided to ignore them. He took the small glances as the only things he would get from the boy as of right now. He followed him into the bathroom and nodded as Kris told him where everything was. He pulled the shirt up over his head and he yawned moving the hair out of his face. It was getting longer, he would have to cut it soon, he looked up as Kris entered the bathroom once again with clothing for him to wear and he smiled gently, "Thank you Kris." he said and walked to the shower turning it on.

 

It didnt take him long to finish, he preferred not to take showers in others homes and he was out and dressed in about 20 minutes. He sighed and ran the towel over his hair towel drying it. He hummed to himself as he looked in the mirror, he looked like him, but the marks on his neck drew his attention. His slender fingers touched the small puncture wounds and he blushed lightly remembering how it felt, what they had been doing, and he remembered the almost hot and sexy look Kris had with his blood on his lips. He shook his head and he sighed running a hand through his hair trying to shake the thought.

 

He pulled the towel around his neck and he sighed making sure the water wouldnt get on his shirt and he walked back into the room. Kris was on the end of the bed and Eric smiled, "Alright, I think you and I must wear similar sizes because we kind of match just a little baggy on me cause you have bigger shoulders than me." he chuckled and walked to the bed not noticing that the male before him was gone. He looked up not hearing a remark and his body froze. Kris's lips were moving and he couldn't hear what he was saying but fear pulled at his gut. Eric moved, almost on instinct and he was at Kris's side in a minute.

 

"Kris..? Love..?" he shook the male gently and he shook his head. "Are you okay? Save you...?" he had caught the last part of the boys words and his mind was thrown for a loop. His fingers were laced with Kris's now and he was shaking him and his hands were moving over his face caressing him trying to make him come back to reality. Eric looked in his eyes and saw that Kris was looking right through him at the wall behind him, he was talking to himself and he didnt even notice the boy was there. He didnt know what to do nor how to snap him out of it, he did the first thing that came to mind. He leaned forward and he kissed Kris softly his lips gently pressing against the others for a small moment before pulling away and waiting to see if it did anything.

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

As he sat there, he only barely felt the presence of Eric entering the room, a faint form of life and warmth in the corner of his mind. He did not hear the words that were spoken to him, it sounded only like that of reverberating buzzing in his ears, a muffled static noise that eventually faded away to nothingness once more. His eyes continued to stare blankly ahead, his soul completely forsaken and gone to another place, far from where he was physically. What Kristopher feared would happen had finally become a reality. his darker half, the other being within himself that was not a vampire, was starting to slowly take over his mind.

 

His eyes slowly closed, but did not close entirely. They got a shadowed look to them, as the color of midnight black began to fill them, like ink being poured into his eyes, or as if his tears were that of shadowy fluid. Though, as Eric began to touch him, at first he felt nothing, though slowly he began to pull back, feeling once more flowed through him, and his mind began to settle back into reality. What helped the most, was the kiss that he felt upon his lips. He shudders after a second, before snapping back into this world, blinking a few times, his eyes returning to normal, the blackness fading away.

 

"E-Eric..." He murmurs, a slightly unreadable expression upon his face. "You're here...thank you..." His eyebrows lift, pressed together, a sad smile upon his lips. Feeling weak, but glad that he was no longer where he was, he sighs softly, and stands up, trying to brush aside the worry he felt. 'Um...well, are you ready to go?" He asks, turning to face the door, his bag already waiting in the car. "I want to get going, so we can just get something to eat at a drive through, if that's okay with you..."

 

He was beginning to feel as if being here, at his own house, was the thing that was his undoing. He felt trapped, and needed to be free. A small smile forms upon his lips, replacing the frown, though as real as it looked, was fake, trying to assure Eric that he was going to be fine, though even within himself, he held doubt about it. "If that is alright...where would you want to go?"

Eric's eyes started to tear up as he watched Kris, the man he loved completely lose himself. His hands were on either sides of his face and he was looking over his face for any form of the Kris he loved. When the ink like liquid filled his lovers eyes the tears welling up in his eyes instantly fell over and he kissed Kris again and again before finally he saw the recognizable features of his lover and the blank stare was gone. He smiled and hugged him tightly but didnt get a hug back before Kris pulled away from him and stood like everything that had just happened had never happened.

 

Eric stood and wiped his eyes and he shook his head going to Kris and his hand went in his own lacing his fingers. "...I'll leave with you..but I know better than to just forget that..." he said softly and he looked down then looked up at Kris. "Will it make you happy to leave..? To go do something?" he said stepping away from Kris knowing he seemed to not want him attached to him like they used to be. "I dont know where I want to go! Anywhere is fine with me...even if we go somewhere nice you wont have the same taste for the food as I will..." he said lightly and looked up at Kris before his smile faded and he reached up touching Kris's cheek gently.

 

"...Are you okay...? I love you and I'm worried about you..." he said softly and moved to pull his hand away but didnt want to. Instead his thumb caressed his cheek and tears welled in his eyes as he looked up at the man he loved. He then looked down and shook his head pulling his hand away. "I'm sorry..." he said softly and he hugged his waist smiling softly wanting him to know they were alright.

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

"Yeah, I need to get out of here. And alright, anywhere it is." He smiles a little bit when his cheek was touched by Eric's fingers, and without any thought really, he reaches up, preventing him from pulling away, and takes a light hold of that hand, before leaning in closer to Eric, kissing him lightly on the lips. "I'm fine...I'll be okay, as long as I have you here with me..." With that said, and an assuring smile, hugs the other closely, before letting go of the hand, only to take it again, lacing their fingers together, and guiding him from the room.

 

He really needed to get out of that house, or it was going to drive him insane. He didn't even stop to tell his mother he was leaving, and instead went straight to the garage, getting into his car and waiting for Eric to climb into the passenger seat, and taking off out of the garage, back down the drive, and onto the street, tires squealing as he takes off, peeling to get out of there. However after a moment he slows down, no longer feeling as if he were trapped.

 

"Alright...so anywhere is good?" He asks Eric, glancing over at him, a small smile beginning to grow. They were currently cruising downtown, where several coffee shops and such could be found, as well as fast food, and cafes. "Just choose a place, and we'll go. Don't worry if it's an expensive looking place, I got enough..." He really didn't want to go to school, and was tempted to just skip, but...he really knew they needed to go. "So yeah...about that assignment...guess you'll be hearing from a actual vampire...Pretty weird, huh?"

Eric was pulling away when he felt the all too familiar hands touch his and he looked up at Kris. His eyes looked him over and he leaned to him as Kris bent down to him. He kissed him back softly and he smiled sniffling as he nodded, "Okay...long as you are alright. I'm happy I can help you." he said softly as he blushed his hand being taken from the older male. He smiled lacing his fingers with his own and he moved close to him smiling. He followed Kris his hands tightening in the other males letting him know he was here for him and he followed him. Like he did any other time, and he let himself into the passenger side of the car sliding into the seat. A blush flushed his cheeks as he instantly remembered the last time they had been in here and he shook his head getting the thoughts out of his head.

 

He could feel how much Kris wanted to get away, he could feel it in the speed of the car. He could also feel it slowing down and he looked over at Kris his head going onto his shoulder as he sighed wanting to ask if he was okay but the other seemed completely focused on getting away from the house. He looked outside now, the small little stores and the large ones as well caught his eyes, he smiled softly hearing that Kris would let him pick anywhere. "I'm not that hungry...so I'll just eat lunch later. How about we stop there?" he asked pointing to a small, run down looking old bookstore and he smiled up at Kris.

 

"I bet they have alot of books on you..." he giggled softly and smiled. "I'm interested in it...but yea, You did know all to much about the subject we had to look up. It all makes alot of sense now." he chuckled and smiled gently at the boy next to him. "Neh...dont make me eat Kris last night you made me eat alot and I dont wish to eat anything today." he looked down at his lap and then he looked back up at Kris hoping he would understand.
