Chapter 1 - Edward

"If it's you for me forever... If it's you and me right now... That'd be alright, be alright..." Nick's voice rang in my ear. It can't be morning already. I struggle to raise my head to the clock strategically hung on the wall in front of me. 9:43. Just five more minutes, I silently plead, but Nick was already up.

"C'mon Edward, get up!"

My head is pounding as I stumble to the floor to recover my clothes, thinking about the night before.

"You feelin' any better? You were so out," Nick grinned, handing me a fresh towel.

"Heh, now that I've got you," I said, giving him a peck on the cheek.

I stammer my way to the bathroom, dragging the towel across the carpet.

I relieve myself of the toxins responsible for my hangover, and casually glance in the mirror. I prod at my hair, a mess too great for any comb to tame, and eagerly step into the warmth of the shower.

The party had lasted until three in the morning, with everyone imaginable there. Nick had found a time when both of his brothers were off work, the president managed to escape his bodyguards, and even Jacob, my ex-boyfriend, came. With all the chaos of the party, it wasn't long until Nick and I found the time to sneak up the stairs and explore his vast king sized bed. Drunk beyond belief, I made love for the first time since my breakup with Jacob.

Jacob. It had been nearly a week since our separation. During those three years with him, I thought he was the one for me. Everytime I looked in Jacob's eyes I saw love, and felt so secure in this dark world. It's funny how fate plays tricks on its victims; we both wanted it to last, but his condition was just too much to handle. At the party we had exchanged a few friendly words, and gazed at each other perhaps longer than friends really should. It was better this way, I had told myself. He went on with his life and I with mine. And yet, something inside of me still craves his presence, his warm embrace and tender loving. It's so very strange to feel this way, to want something I hate so desperately, even though I know it'll only end in more tears.

When I was done freshening up, I went downstairs to the kitchen to find Nick wrapped in a yellow flower-printed apron, hovering over the stove as he sung.

"Hey Eddie, you hungry?" He asked upon noticing me.
"Oh quite. What's that you got there?" I questioned his bag of love-making accessories, being hungry for more boy action and a pint of blood than whatever Nick was planning for breakfast.

"A surprise, my dear Edward," he replied with a sly smirk.
"Mmm," was all I could say, giving him a weak smile. I knew he was up to something.

"Well, have a seat, I'll be right over," Nick said, glancing towards his dining hall.

I took a seat, contemplating what I should say when Nick arrives. In my hundred years of life I hadn't been with many boys his age, but I quite fancied Nick and his youthfulness. This was only our second day dating after falling in love at the party, but I already knew Nick to be a sweet boy, and much more submissive than Jacob ever had been.

"So, kiddo," I began, losing my words for a moment as Nick entered the room, carrying with him a tray, "you live alone here?"
"Yeah. Ya'know, life of a rockstar. Gets lonely here sometimes."
"Ah, I bet. Do you always do your own cooking?" I said, admiring the traditional English breakfast he served up.

"Why as a matter of fact I do. It's somewhat of a hobby to me, an art really."

It's hard to keep my mind clear while watching him eat. He emits a smell too great... I gently reach my hand over to his leg, and begin to caress it. He instantly smiles and looks like he had been planning this whole thing.

"Edward, you silly vampire! Get your mits off me," he let out a giggle. I did as he wished, and returned to sitting calmly, just wishing to have things my way, with him in my mouth and me sucking until he's completely drained.

"Are we still going to the museum, Nick?"
"Most certainly, just as soon as I'm done eating. Won't you try a bite?"
"No thank you, human food just isn't my thing."
"Suit yourself."
