Disclaimer: I do not own anything; I am simply a creative writer writing about fictional people who are owned by the creators of Being Human.
Authors note: So Since I have finished my story study, I know have a loads of creative ideas that all seem to be forming around the characters of Being Human. I am going to compose several one shots of different points in our three's lives. It may not always pertain to the series itself, but hey, creative rights here.
I'd like to start off with Aiden again, I seem much more in tuned with his feelings then Josh or Sally. I'm not sure where this will lead, so I hope you guy's just stick along for the ride.
On a Bender, Off the Rocker
Aiden's POV:
I've tried so hard to be where I am now, and it seems as each day goes on it gets harder and harder to keep myself in control. But I try, not just for myself but for Josh as well. What would he think if the person who's supposed to be helping him falls off the wagon again? I can't let him down in that way, in fact I wont. But then again, it's been so intense lately that I cannot be so certain of my own sanity and stability.
Narrative:
Aiden made to slam the door, not paying any mind to Josh who caught it in time to walk through the door way after him. Aiden made a be-line to the kitchen, throwing open the fridge door dramatically. He looked around it for a few seconds, moving a few items aside as if searching out a particular thing. He gave up closing it again and flopping himself on the couch. Josh eyed him up, trying to decipher his bizarre behavior.
"Ants in your pants?" he asked trying to sound light.
Aiden looked at Josh suspiciously.
"Ants?" he replied unsure of the question he was being asked. Josh rounded the couch taking a seat near Aiden.
"Well you seem on edge…like you've got ants…in your…pants" Josh slowed his sentence down at the end. Aiden raise a querying eyebrow to Josh.
"I just- I need a moment…please?"
Josh did as Aiden requested leaving him to sit alone in the living room.
Josh made it to the last step at the top of the stairs as Sally made her appearance. Josh jumped unprepared for her Houdini act.
"What's up with Aiden" she asked nonchalantly.
"Well he's a vampire, what isn't up with him?" Josh passed through Sally and into the spare room where most of his small book collection lived. Sally sighed following him.
"No I mean… seriously, he's acting like he's got-"
"Ants in his pants?" asked Josh happily, cutting Sally off. She raised and eye brow.
"Noo" she said with emphasis on the 'o'
"Like he's got a lot on his mind." Sally finished. Josh sat down looking deflated.
"Oh"
"So…do you know anything?" Sally pushed her inquisitively farther.
"I'm not s-" Josh was cut off by a laud crash from the lower floor
"-Sure" he finished before getting up and going to the top of the stairs.
"Aiden?" he called out waiting intently for his reply. Nothing. Josh looked to Sally who looked nervous.
"Wait here" Sally nodded.
"Seriously, wait."
"Okay!" She said impatiently.
Josh came rushing down the stairs, he looked around the living room, Aiden wasn't there. Josh heard a groaning noise come from the kitchen. He entered not seeing anything at first, and then he saw a foot kick out from the other side of the table.
"Aiden?" he called again, this time quietly. A reply finally met his ears; it was a quite groaning "Go".
Josh rounded the table seeing Aiden sprawled out on the floor clutching his head as if in agony. Josh fell to his knees to help Aiden.
"Whoa buddy, it's gonna be okay. I'm here, just tell me what happened" Josh made to life Aiden's head, but he rolled it away from him.
"Just go" he said quietly but defiant. Josh breathed through his nose impatiently.
"Remember what you said about always having my back, well I'm doing the same, just tell me what's wrong"
Aiden looked at Josh with a hunger and anger so intense Josh almost backed away from that single look.
"I'm hungry" he said flatly. Josh looked to the fridge, then back to Aiden.
"You have-"
"NO! What I have is discussing dead blood; I can't live off of this crap!" Aiden has lost it, his eyes turned dark, and his fangs slid out.
Josh's eye went wide.
"You need to keep it together, I'll get someone to help?"
Aiden let out a maniacal laugh.
"Who do you know that can help me?"
Josh was surprised, but he replied anyways.
"I don't know, Bishop? Wait…bad idea" Josh started to think to himself.
"Why don't you pull down your collar and give me a sip. I don't think I've had werewolf before" Aiden gave a smirk of inhuman lust.
Josh stud up looking utterly confused. 'Yep he totally lost it' He thought. Aiden made to lunge at Josh's jugular, but Josh backed up giving Aiden only enough time to sink into the meaty part of his forearm. Josh yelled out as they both went crashing to the kitchen floor.
End
Authors Note: So…I'm still not sure where I'm taking this, but as it stands, Aiden is what 200+ years old? Dementia isn't only for those who are naturally old, it seems he has finally cracked the frail parts in his mind. Will Josh die? Has Sally finally started listening when told to stay? What does Werewolf Blood taste like?
Questions, questions, questions. Well till next time. Please read and review.
