Title: MY terrible roommate

A/N: This story is set a little after Carmilla told Laura about her past. Idk where I'm going with this but I hope you enjoy(:

"Would it kill you to clean up after yourself?!"

"Would it kill you to stop nagging me all the time cupcake?"

I heaved a frustrated sigh at my terrible vampiric roommate as I cleaned up empty soda cans and dirty laundry off the floor. She just laid on her bed with an amused look on her face as she glanced up at me from her book.

"You know if you decide to flunk college you'd make an excellent maid. All you need is a sexy uniform and less of that attitude." Carmilla said her deep voice making my cheeks flush red. God dammit it'd be easier to not like her if she wasn't so alluring and attractive.

I rolled my eyes and threw her dirty laundry in the hamper not responding. I could feel her eyes on me still but I just ignored her as I sat at my computer. I had a literature paper due tomorrow and I wasn't about to let Carmilla keep me from getting it done.

As I wrote my paper thoughts of Carmilla kept creeping into my head and made it very hard to focus. I glanced over at her and she was still neck deep in her book. I can't believe we kept her captive and tied up for two weeks. I honestly felt horrible about doing that to her, dang near starving her to death and making her reflect back on her dark past. I stared down at my hands as I felt enormous guilt fill my body.

"You okay there buttercup?" Carmilla asked her voice actually sounding concerned as she sat up and placed her book aside.

"It's n-nothing." I stammered glancing over at her for a second then fumbling around with some papers on my desk.

"Hmm I've been alive long enough to know when someone's lying. Come here and tell me what's bothering you." She patted the space next to her on her bed.

"I'm fine really."

"Don't make me make you tell me. Now come here cupcake." Her voice was demanding yet oddly sweet so I huffed as I got up and plopped next to her. Her eyes examined my face as I blinked nervously.

"Take your time." She touched my thigh in a caring manner as she looked me in the eyes waiting for me to speak. My cheeks flushed red yet again. Why did she make me feel like I had a swarm of butterflies in my stomach?

"It's just I feel bad for what we did to you. Ya know tying you up and stuff." I admitted and watched as a smile graced her face.

"That's what's bothering you?" She laughed. "Don't sweat it buttercup, if anything I feel ashamed for letting you numbskulls capture me." I rolled my eyes and she nudged me with her elbow.

"Ya know if you feel that bad about it though you could always let me tie you down cutie." She wiggled her eyebrows seductively. Gosh why does she have to say things like that? My stomach fluttered as I pushed her playfully and got up from her bed.

"Ehh maybe another time I gotta finish my paper."

"I'm holding you to that cupcake." She winked as she got up to get something from the fridge.

She's such a flirt I swear.

I sat back down at my desk and scanned over what I had already written and sighed. I still had 1000 words to write because the assignment was to write a 2000 word paper on hero archetypes in the Iliad. Which I'm probably making harder than it should be but I can't seem to focus.

Carmilla placed a cup of coffee next to me and sat on the edge of her bed. "You're more scatter brained than normal should I be worried?" She smiled taking a sip of what was probably left over blood from the fridge.

"Thanks, and no I just can't focus." I said taking a sip of coffee and wow let me tell you for a lazy vampire Carmilla makes the best coffee.

"You could always let me tie you up now and finish your paper later." She tried, pulling my chair closer to her with a smug grin on her face just like she had before Danny, LaFontaine, Perry and I had captured her. To think I thought she wanted to eat me but instead she was hitting on me, just like she is right now.

"No you pervy vampire I really have to get this done I have to get that C up in literature. I don't plan on flunking out and becoming your maid."

"Ooo you should highly consider it cupcake." Her deep voice in my ear making my face hot.

I shook my head and scooted myself back to my desk determined to get this paper done as Carmilla gulped down the rest of her blood. I typed down a few sentences and looked over at Carmilla who was doodling on one of my spare sheets of paper.

I began to wonder what she normally did at this time of night while I slept. What would Carmilla be doing at 2am since it's practically her daytime?

"Hey what would you normally be doing right now?" I asked her curiously.

"Oh you know a little bit of this, a little bit of that." She said glancing up from her drawing.

"Come on I know you do something. Do you go feasting upon young virgins?" I joked wiggling my eyebrows.

"No, well not anymore at least." She said nonchalantly as she went back to doodling.

'Not anymore.' How funny I thought.

"I'll get you to tell me one of these days."

"Maybe, but I gotta keep my edge of mystery somehow hot stuff, you can't know all my secrets."

"Well what secrets can I know?"

For the rest of the night we talked about life, what made us happy, what made us sad and sometimes just complete randomness. I felt as if I was cracking some sort of metaphorical shell that Carmilla had. Something stirred in me as she recalled pleasant things from her life, hearing her laugh seeing her smile. Learning what makes her happy is probably what stuck with me most.

The stars, dancing, a good book, romance..

She really was more than just a lazy vampire.

She seemed so alive.

We were sprawled out on her bed, her head on my yellow pillow and our eyes on each other. Without realizing it we had been like this all night and it felt like we were in some sort of trans that I didn't mind staying in.

"Shit Laur I didn't know it was six already." She said sitting up and looking over at my computer.

"It's fine I'll probably get a C on my paper which is still passing I guess." I shrugged I really didn't care that I didn't finish it. The night I ended up having was way worth it.

"Seems like I'm not so terrible after all." She said smirking laying back down and playing with my hair.

"Ehhh I wouldn't go that far lazy." I smiled releasing myself from Carm to get some breakfast. She just rolled her eyes and snuggled back into my pillow.

I glanced over her and felt my chest stir of all the people out there I have a crush on a vampire I could hear my dads voice now.

'You sure can pick em' sweetheart.'

Honestly though after last night she seems like so much more and I know I can trust her even if everyone else doesn't. They don't know her like I do. And what makes me even happier is that there's so much more to learn about my mysterious centuries old roommate.

Going through the fridge trying to find something to eat I moved her 'soy milk' to the side and realized it was empty and there were also empty cans and muffin containers all through out it.

"Really Carm?! You don't throw anything away do you?! How messy can one person be!?"

"Here we go again." Carmilla groaned.

A/N: Let me know what you think so far!
