Chapter 1 – 100's & 1000's
Brown eyes,
Black hair,
You are a Simon,
And you are a Vampire,
Still a better love story than twilight.
Simon fingered the soft paper between the pad of his thumb and forefinger. Eric's latest unread poem dropped from between his fingers and drifted like a feather to the floor.
Simon had taken a break from band practice to go make some fairy bread and found the small, crinkled paper shoved into the 100s & 1000s box, the awesome rainbow beads shattering dramatically on the floor as he smoothed it down between his palms. He felt as though he was trapped in one of his favourite TV shows, Tricky Business and Degrassi, except without the drugs and teen pregnancy, cause' that shit is nasty.
The terrible poem lay on the floor as Eric stepped into the room, his intense gaze swept the kitchen for fairy bread and the hunger in his eyes was feral. Within 3 strides Simon's long legs had traversed the room and had brushed the tip of his pinkie finger over Eric's eyebrow. Eric closed his eyes and shuddered at the touch. Simon leaned in and butterfly kissed his cheek, his long lashes thick with the mascara from his latest drag queen incident with Jace.
Eric's breath came short and quick now, his quivering fingers tugging at the loop of his jeans nervously. 'The poem,' Simon breathed, 'Was the most beautiful thing I have ever read. The part about my hair….' The thought made him shiver. Eric smiled impishly, his forehead and nose scrunching together like the face of a pug. 'I-I-I meant e-every word,' Eric stuttered. Simon reached out and smoothed the lines on Eric's face; the pug face was starting to creep him out. A single tear dribbled out of his eye and Simon's tongue darted out quickly to catch it, but he missed and poked Eric in the eye. 'FU—' Simon covered Eric's mouth quickly and patted him soothingly on the head.
Love,
Rony and Caitlin xx
