A/N: This is femmeslash. I am warning you now.

This was always Dr. Megan Hunt's least favorite time of year. It wasn't the trick-or-treaters or the candy that she hated. It wasn't the carving pumpkins, decorating for spookiness, or even the costume parties she was invited to that made her skin crawl and her blood boil. Megan Hunt was a vampire. However, this particular form of vampirism only made itself prevalent a few times a year, (about once a month) and this particular time of the month fell on Halloween. Megan knew that Halloween was the worst time for her to have her period because she already turned into a vampire on Halloween regardless of if she had her period, but she came to know that if the two coincided on Halloween, her rage, her power, and her thirst for blood grew nearly insatiable, and nearly unquenchable. But…this year, Megan Hunt had a plan.

Every Halloween, the M.E.'s office hosted a Halloween ball. Costumes were mandatory, the booze was plentiful, and there was always fantastic music to be found. Megan had been planning to go to this ball the entire month of October, and she was not going to let this "thing" get her down. However, Megan knew how her body operated more than anyone else, so she requested off work the two days before Halloween. Megan had not taken a second thought to the matter, because it had always worked for her in past jobs without any problem at all. Until one week before October 29.

Dr. Kate Murphy walked into Megan's office with her pristine skirt suit, majestic hair, and flawless make up as she did every day, but today was different. "Dr. Hunt, I would like to speak with you on next week's schedule." Kate said, her tone quite professional…as per usual.

If there were two things on opposite poles of Megan's 'like' spectrum, Dr. Kate Murphy had hit the nail on the head with both. The first thing which Megan adored superbly was Dr. Kate Murphy herself. The woman was stunning beyond compare, she was witty, funny, and most of all Megan found her pheromones irresistible. However, Megan despised when someone tried to mess with her time off…especially now.

"Yes Dr. Murphy, what can I do you for?" Megan said with a smile, and an almost wink. "I would like to have a reason as to why you requested these two days off next week." Kate said, bringing a sheet of paper to Megan's attention. Megan paused for a moment. Oh Q did she want this woman, and Kate's scent was extravagantly beautiful today, and Megan had to severely restrain herself by clenching her fists together under the desk. She could feel her fangs twitching to come out…

"Lacey has something to do with her school those two days, and I have been asked to assist." Megan knew the lie would work, because even though Kate didn't show it well, she truly adored Lacey. "on the 29th, there is going to be a spooky career fair, so having a Medical Examiner there is pertinent, and then the kids are having a party on the 30th, and I have been asked to chaperone."

Kate nodded in silence for a moment. "Alright, you may have those two days off. But, I want to see you at this year's costume party. No excuses!" Kate made her way to leave.

"No excuses, then" Megan said with a smile.

Kate left Megan's office with a smile, and just a hair of pep in her step.

Megan sat back in her chair for a moment. "Whew" she let out an exasperated breath as if she'd been holding it in for some time. She then went back to what she was doing and prepared for some upcoming events.

As Megan was getting ready to leave, she stopped by Kate's office, and saw that Kate was talking on the phone with her chair turned in the other direction. Megan waited patiently for a moment, but noticed something on Kate's desk that piqued her interest.

"Vampirism: Real or Faked?" –By Dr. Kate Murphy

This was an article written by Dr. Murphy for the Journal of Medicine, for the section of Weird but True facts. Megan had never known Kate to be fascinated with vampires, and it almost came as a surprise to her. Megan was almost tempted to give Kate firsthand information, but she knew that would have to come later. So Megan picked up the article and read it as Kate finished her conversation.

As she was reading it, Megan noticed a few key myths about vampires that she for certain knew to be false, and Kate did exceptionally well at bringing those points to a head. Just as Megan turned the page, Kate put the phone receiver back in the cradle and turned around to find Dr. Hunt snooping in her stuff.

"Ahh, Dr. Hunt, I wasn't expecting you. What is it, how did you say it earlier, 'What can I do you for?'" Kate asked, lightly grabbing the paper from Dr. Hunt's hands.

"I never knew you were interested in vampires…" Megan said, crossing her arms over her chest. "Oh, I have always been fond of them…ever since I was a little girl. Why are you so fond of them, Dr. Hunt?" Kate asked, now raising a single eyebrow in question of Megan and her motives.

"I find the subject rather scientifically invigorating. I've always been curious to know how their brain patterns work, since I was a neurosurgeon at one time and all. What's your take on them, Kate?" Megan wanted to get under Kate's skin, but not too far. Megan wanted to make sure Kate wasn't some Buffy going around slaying people she thought were vampires.

"When I was young, I saw the movie Dracula, and the fangs just looked oh so real. It wasn't until college when I dated this one girl that was into the whole vampire movement, that I wondered if they were actually real or not. I'll have to email you this piece. I can assure you I have done my research." Kate could have kept the subject going or left it, but she now wondered what Megan's purpose for seeing her was.

"Interesting enough, I guess" Megan said politely. "I came here to ask if you wanted to join me for drinks tonight. I know tomorrow is Saturday and since there isn't a murder, you and I don't have to work in the morning."

"I would love to" Kate said with a smile, more curious now as to Megan's motives. "Could I invite you over afterwards to get your opinion on my costume for this year? I am stuck on a few." Kate knew she could use this to see what Megan might be up to…and she could have an outfit prepared for Halloween!

"Drinks and costumes sounds perfect!" Megan said, her grin growing bigger. "I have mine picked out already…I'm going as a vampire!" She said, before leaving Kate's office, leaving the other woman with her jaw practically on the floor. "I'll see you tonight then!"

Kate could hardly move after hearing what Megan said her costume was going to be. Megan knew that Kate liked vampires and was fascinated by them, but what Kate knew that Megan didn't was that Kate was more than just fascinated. It was almost a fetish in its own sense. Kate had believed that vampires were real ever since she saw Dracula as a child, but now she had done research and found that there had been possible cases of people who were actually vampires.

Kate had always wanted to meet a vampire in the flesh. She wanted this more than anything in the world, and she really honestly would not know how to act if she in fact met an actual vampire. The fact that Megan was going to be dressed as a vampire sent chills down Kate's spine.

That evening…

Megan waited until Lacey was sound asleep and nearly snoring before she left to go have drinks with Kate. It was 10:15 when Megan left, knowing with the 15 minute drive, and a short conversation between the two women, they wouldn't be going anywhere until after 11. Megan could hardly hold in her excitement. Getting to see Kate in a sexy costume, or a spooky costume, or just—anything, brought a blush to Megan's cheeks and made her feel all warm inside. "God, I can't do this. I have seriously got to grow up. I haven't even had anything to drink yet and already I'm getting giddy about this woman!"

Megan gripped the steering wheel just a little bit tighter as she turned onto Kate's street. When she got to Kate's driveway, Megan sat in her car for a moment and just breathed. She inhaled oxygen and released carbon dioxide for about three minutes or so before she realized she needed to grow some balls and go in the damned house. "It's only for drinks anyway…" Megan thought to herself as she rang the doorbell.

To her surprise, Kate was apparently ready to stay home for the evening, because she was clad only in a fuzzy lavender robe with matching slippers. Megan cocked her head to the side for a moment. "Are we not going—out for drinks?"

"I have enough drinks here to kill about four elephants, and I want to get rid of some before it goes bad. Come on in!" Kate ushered Megan on in, and took her purse and coat to hang in the closet just outside of the foyer.

When Kate came back to where Megan was standing, she forgot that Megan had never been to her house before. "It's so…big!" Megan said softly, being ushered into the living room.

"Shall I give you the grand tour?" Kate asked, a large grin on her face.

"Why, I think a tour is definitely in order, my dear Kate. Show me around your humble abode, please." Megan's tone seemed a bit more uppity than she wanted, but Kate got the joke that was implied and laughed lightly.

"It's really not much at all. Just…home."

After the grand tour of the house, Kate and Megan ventured into the kitchen where Megan got to pick her choice of mixed drink, including mixer, liquor, and whatever else she may want to add. "You know, if you have any tequila, I have always been a fan of margaritas." Megan said, eyeing the assortment of bottles. "Margaritas sound perfect, only…my blender is broken. Do you mind a 'rita on the rocks'?" Kate asked, getting out a hand mixer.

Megan nodded in acknowledgement, as if mentally stating that was fine with her, but she kept preoccupied on the artifacts that lined the living area by the kitchen, what Kate had dubbed 'her study'.

There were a few Dracula-style paintings on the walls, the décor of the room had been set accordingly, but what caught Megan's attention the most was the white rose with droplets of blood on it that sat in a small, thin, glass case by itself.

"That was given to me about ten years ago." Kate said, walking into the room and handing Megan her drink. "After my girlfriend and I broke up, I went into a type of almost seclusion, and she sent me that as a token to our friendship." Megan could only look at Kate for a moment.

"Looking back, it's still kind of creepy, but I like it. It goes well with my motif." Kate turned on her heel and left the room, leaving an awestruck Megan standing in the study. "If you only knew the meaning of that rose…" Megan thought to herself as she left the study and followed Kate to her bedroom.

"Well…I have narrowed it down to six costumes." Kate said, pointing at the different articles of clothing scattered all across her bed. "You have narrowed it down to six?" Megan asked, taking a sip of her drink. "How many did you begin with?"

Kate acted as almost if she didn't want to answer, but then stated softly, "14."

Megan took another sip of her margarita. "Well this is a good start, then."

The two women sat and drank and laughed for what felt like forever, watching Kate try on costume after costume, after costume. The two women had finally narrowed their choices down to two costumes; one was a silver cat suit with some small facial attachments, which was some alien hottie costume, and there was the "princess of the evening costume" which Kate had come up with all on her own. Kate had taken a black evening gown, put cuts, tears, and rips in it, and then stained it with dye in order to mimic blood stains on her. Kate had a pair of matching stilettos that went with the dress as well, but what really made the costume everything that it was, was the sparkling silver tiara that Kate wore proudly cocked on the right side of her head so that it gave the illusion it might fall, but hardly budged.

As Kate strutted around her bedroom with this costume on for the third and final time that night, Megan could only look at her in admiration and adoration, stating, "I think you may have found your costume."

Kate fell back on the bed and just lay on her back for a moment, looking at the ceiling, and moments later, Megan joined her. The two women began talking about mostly gossip and nonsense, but after a while, Megan grew curious, and had to ask. "So, why are you so fascinated in vampires, Kate?"

Kate sat up half way and rotated herself to face Megan. "I told you how I was fascinated at a young age with Dracula and all of that nonsense, but I feel as if I may have met one before. It was that encounter, which drove me to figure out if vampires are indeed real or not."

Megan swallowed hard for a moment. Oh dear Q she hoped it wasn't her that Kate had seen late one night under a full moon. "The most fascinating thing about it though, the vampire I saw, was a woman."

Kate lied back down on the bed. Megan could only stare at the ceiling now, and hoped to whatever great and powerful creator there was would make it so that Kate would never figure out it was indeed her, Megan Hunt, who was a vampire.

My apologies, but this is all I can compose for tonight. I hope you all had a wonderful (and safe) Halloween, and I will post the second and last part to this tomorrow!

Please R&R!
