This is my first Moonlight fanfic, so please reviews. I'm planning to make a JoBeth series out of this so this will hopefully be the first chapter of many and will try to have a new chapter up every week at least.


Chapter 1

I didn't know what to think. First my secretary calls me to say a blonde reporter from BuzzWire was downstairs and asked if she should send the reporter away. Of course I knew it was Beth but I assumed Mick would be with her. Now here was the beautiful blonde in my office alone and I had no idea why.

"Sit down, please, make yourself comfortable. You're my best friend's girlfriend after all and I sure don't need Mick coming over to stake for being rude to you."

"Thank you," she said, as she walked over and took a seat in front of my desk.

"So what can I do for you today Ms. Turner?" I actually did want to know. I had very few encounters with Mick's human. I knew a little about her through Mick, but it seemed odd for her to come to my office without Mick.

"Well," she started, but then stopped for a second seeming to search for what she wanted to say, "I just wanted to thank you, you know, for saving me from that vampire last week."

"Well, Ms Turner…."

"Please, call me Beth, Josef."

"Beth. If I remember correctly, Mick was the one doing all the saving. I was just sort of there for the show," I flashed my signature smirk. I've used that smirk so often to show my sarcasm, yet I can't even remember when I started to. Maybe when I was human.

"Yes, Mick was the one who saved me," her words cutting into my thoughts, " but he wouldn't have been able to if you hadn't turned him back into.. well…back into a vampire."

Was she actually thanking me for turning her boyfriend, my friend, back into a vampire. Wow, Mick really knows how to pick them. But there is something to this woman, that's for sure. No doubt, she's beautiful. Hell, I have freshies who couldn't compete with her. She's smart, too. I've heard from Mick about how she's helped him with cases. She even helped me when my office was blown up.

And, there something to be said about a human who would actually thank someone for turning their boyfriend back into a vampire, knowing how much their boyfriend hates being a vampire. The really interesting thing is as she's sitting here thanking me, her heart never skips a beat. She's completely at ease. Very peculiar. She's knows I'm a vampire and she's know very little about me, but there's not even a hint of fear.

"Well that's still doesn't call for a thank you. Mick asked, I did, simple as that. And seeing how Mick really isn't into the whole accepting himself as a vampire, I would think you would be angry, not thanking me."

"Yeah, well, it still doesn't change the fact that if he wasn't a vampire I would probably be dead, plus, even if you were just there for the show, I'm thinking you still probably killed a least one vamp, right?" she looked at me with a smile. Damn, no wonder Mick likes her. If she can say something like that with that kind of smile on face, I don't think any one could resist her human or vampire.

I leaned back in my chair a little. "Alright, fine. Thank you accepted. Is that all you needed?"

"Umm….," she looked away from me now. There was something else. I sat back up, looking at her with my full attention.

"What?"

"It's just that Mick and I are going to try and make this whole vampire human relationship work…"

"Did you two have sex?" I cut in really wonder if Mick had it in him. I've told that idiot a thousand times to have sex with this girl if he loves her, did he actually that my advice?

"No! I mean, no, we kissed. But sex is kind of the other thing I wanted talk about." Did she really just say that. "Not sex in general, that would be a little weird since I barely know you, but I really do want to know how the whole vampire human relationship works. All Mick ever says is that it's difficult, complicated, and dangerous."

She was looking at her hands now. "Maybe for him," I said to her, hoping to get a reaction. "But why are you wanting me to explain this to you. You're dating Mick , ask him." She was right, it was weird for to come my office asking how vampires and human have sex.

She let out a sigh and looked up, " That's just it. Mick won't tell me anything."

I looked at her again before going back to my leaned back position. "Well, hopefully, he doesn't have to explain the sex part. I pretty sure you being, what twenty-eight about?" She nodded a little in response. "I'm pretty sure you know how sex works in a relationship."

"Yeah, but I never dated a vampire before and mom left out the part involving vampires in our little sex talk as a teenager."

"Ok, so you want me to fill in the blanks for you on dating a vampire because Mick won't tell you. You do realize that me explaining vampire sex to my friend's girlfriend is a real quick way to get me staked, right?"

"We just won't tell Mick." That was her only response. And Mick also apparently hasn't explained just how well a vampire can smell. This could be interesting.

"Alright, but I hope you are not planning on drilling me with a hundred questions today. I do have a business to run."

"Oh, right. Of course," she began to get up from the chair. "I really don't expect you to explain it all at once anyway. I probably need some time for everything to sink in." Interesting choice of words. "So when can I come over?"

"How about tomorrow. You do get a lunch break at BuzzWire don't you?" She nodded. "Good, meet me here at say eleven o'clock That should be a good time and a time when Mick definitely won't pop in for one of his surprise visits."

"Okay, great. I'll see you tomorrow, Josef." She started to walk out and then turned back to me as she opened the door. "And thank you, again. For everything." She left and all I could do was smile. This could be really fun, probably will end up being killed for it, but I have wondered about that blonde ever since Mick first introduced me to her.
