Stella: "Oh come on Mac, why don't you believe the tradition of claiming the love of your life?"
Mac: "Stella don't be silly. Bite the person you love and leave your initial."
Stella: "Well I guess if you really love the person, then it's worth it and no one else can claim them as their own.
Mac: "So if a certain person already has initials on them no one else can try to overwrite it?"
Stella: "Yup, Look at Don & Jess, and Danny & Linsay, Jess has a DF on her neck. And Lindsay has a DM."
Mac: "Why both letters?"
Stella: "Well to no confuse things since Don & Danny have the same first letter. So they make it official with the last name too."
Mac: "Well do the guys have their um- "
Stella: "Yes, both Jess & Lindsay claimed their men."
Mac: "What about you?"
Stella: "What about me?"
Mac: "You claim anyone yet."
Stella: "No one worth claiming yet, that why my neck is clean. But what about you. You're the one with the girlfriend who's dying to bite you. Why won't you let her do it?"
Mac: "I don't know. I guess I don't want her to."
Stella: "Do you love her?"
Mac: "Stella!"
Stella: "Right sorry Mac, I shouldn't have asked."
Mac: "Its alright, you are my best friend, and well I do tell you everything. The truth is I don't love her. I - just well-"
Stella: "Let me guess, you didn't want to be alone and since she came up to you and made a move you let yourself fall for her."
Mac: "Something like that. Did I ever tell you how un-nerving it is you know me too well."
Stella: "Only about a million times."
Mac: "Stella, can I ask you something?"
Stella: "Sure!"
Mac: "Why haven't you let no one bit you?"
Stella: "No one worth me allowing them to do so. I mean there is one guy, but that's stepping into forbidden territory."
Mac: "How so?"
Stella: "He's taken."
Mac: "Is it Don?"
Stella: "No!"
Mac: "Danny?"
Stella: "No! I love both those guys like if they're my brothers."
Mac: "Well then who else? I know it's not Sheldon because he's married, and it can't be Sid."
Stella: "Don't worry about it Mac. I'm fine the way I am."
Mac: "But I want you to be happy."
Stella: "I'm happy the way I am Mac, no one can ever so called claim their love for me and then hurt me."
Mac: "Look Stella, I know you're still mad about what Frankie did to you but you have to move on. Be happy."
Stella: "I told you Mac, I'm already happy."
Mac: "Well I don' t believe you."
Stella: "Then don't!"
Mac: "Stella, what's wrong."
Stella: "N-" Peyton coming in and interupting
Peyton: "Hi darling."
Mac: "Hi,"
Stella now getting ready to leave the office. Mad at the fact that Peyton is there she rather just leave and blow off steam then to kick her ass.
Mac: "Stella, where you going?"
Stella: "Home."
Mac: "Did you finish the reports."
Stella: "I have a few more, I'll come in early and finish them."
Mac: "Stella is everything alright?"
Stella: "I'm fine Mac, just tired. I probably will just take a hot shower and go to bed."
Peyton: "You look a lil pale, you sure you're ok?"
Stella: "I'm fine!"
Mac: "I'm gonna stop by to check up on you before I go home."
Stella: "That's sweet of you Mac, but i'm ok, really."
Peyton: "You can't go Mac, I have plans for us."
Mac: "Us?"
Peyton: "Yes I have planned a nice romantic dinner for two, and maybe we can finally make ourselves official?"
Stella not wanting to hear anymore, just excused herself and walked out of Mac's office as quick as she can. Feeling her blood boil and trying not to transform herself into her vampire mode just yet til she reached outside.
Mac: "Peyton listen,"
Peyton: "Sorry Mac, I know I should've asked you first but I wanted to surprise you."
Mac: "Peyton listen we need to talk."
Peyton: "What's wrong Mac?"
Mac: "How long have we've been dating?"
Peyton: "6 months, Why?"
Mac: "Peyton listen, I can't just claim my love for you."
Peyton: "Why not?"
Mac: "Peyton, I like you alot, but I don't love you."
Peyton: "You're kidding right?"
Mac: "No Peyton, I'm not. I'm not in love with you."
Peyton: "Who are you in love with then?"
Mac: "To be honest, I don't know. All I know is that when I'm with you, it feels nice, but like a friendship nice, not that lovey dovey feeling."
Peyton: "Are you sure Mac? I mean I love you with all my heart, I know that if you let me claim you as my man, I can make you happy."
Mac: "It wouldn't be fair to you Peyton, I don't have those kind of feelings for you."
Peyton: "Who then, Mac? WHO?"
Mac: "Peyton I don't know."
Peyton: "It's Stella aint it?"
Mac: "Stella? NO she's just my best friend. That thought hasn't even crossed my mind."
Peyton: "Then tell me who it is. I want you to be only mine."
Mac: "Peyton you can't just force someone to be with you. The love has to be mutual, otherwise if you claim someone you don't love, that person will hate you forever."
Peyton: "Well that's a risk i'm willing to take!"
Mac: "Peyton don't be silly. I don't love you. Why can't you understand that?"
Peyton: "Because I know you have to let me show you my love, and I bet with time you can feel for me what I feel for you.
Mac: "Peyton listen I think it's best if we just remain friends."
Peyton: "Whatever you say Mac. But you'll be mine I can assure you of that."
Mac: "Don't try it Peyton. I told you if you force bite someone or bite someone without them loving you that person will hate you forever."
Peyton: "NONSENSE! I know you love me."
Mac: "Look Peyton, I'm gonna go and check on Stella to make sure she got home safe."
Peyton: "She's a big girl Mac, she knows her way home."
Mac: "She's my best friend, and that what friends do. We take care of each other and make sure we're alright."
Peyton: "But what about dinner?"
Mac: "Peyton, we've been dating for 6 months, you should know by now that I don't do dinners. I hardly eat. Besides I'm not hungry."
With that Mac walked out of his office in search of Stella. Following the scent of her perfume down the hall, he took the elevator to the lobby. {Dammit she's not here} He continued to go outside and looked up to see if she happened to be sitting on the roof of the Cafe Shop they always go to. {Dammit} He continued to walk, and then he spotted her just arriving at her apartment. Now litterly running to catch up to her before she enters her apartment, he made it to the rooftop just as the door was closing. "DAMMIT" he said to himself.
Stella finally arriving at her aparment, she entered through the roof and walked down the ladder and walking to her apartment door. Sniffing the air, she thought she caught the scent of Mac and his cologne, she just sighed to herself and enter her apartment. Dropping her clothes on the way to the bathroom, all she wanted to do was just shower and go to sleep.
"Dammit Mac"
{what do you see in her. You tell me you don' t love her, but I don' t know whether to believe you or not. I love you so much Mac, why can't you sense that. I mean i can read everyones minds except yours. Peyton is not the one for you. Why don't you see it Mac? You have such a great sense of smell & speed. I can read minds but I'm not as fast as you.}
"Oh Mac, why can't I have you all to myself."
Stella stepping out of the shower and heading to bed, she went under the covers and stepped into bed. Feeling some chills because the room was slightly cold she covered herself with the blanket not worrying about sleeping nude since no one will see her in case the covers slip off. Feeling herself slowly drift off she started to dream of Mac of how he was kissing her, touching her, pleasing her in everyway.
"Oooooo Mac!" she said outloud as she dreamed of Mac not realizing that he was now in her room watching her fantazise about him
{She's dreaming of me. She's moaning my name out of pleasure as she touches herself.} Mac said to himself
"Oohhhh Mac, love me, take me, bite me, make me yours. I only want you. I love you Mac."
{OH God, she loves me. I mean what do I do. I- I do love her too, I just denied it in front of Peyton so she doesn't try to hurt Stella. But what do I do now, she's calling my name out in her dreams. I want to make her mine for real, I want to please her. Shall I wake her? No, no I can't! But I want her so bad, and she wants me to do so.}
"Ahhh I'm going for it." he said out loud but not too loud for Stella to hear him.
Striping himself out of his clothes only leaving his undershirt and boxers, he slowly pulled the covers back and top of Stella admiring her beauty. He then started to caress her body which caused Stella to jump and wake up from her dream.
"MAC?"
But with Mac's speed, he rushed out of there before Stella can actually see him, leaving behind his shirt. Stella now getting up and putting on her robe and walking over to her balcony. Stepping outside she looked all around to see if she saw him. She knew he was there, he had left his shirt behind.
"Mac I know you're out here. Show yourself."
But he never responded. He had rush to his apartment mad at himself that he had invaded her privacy. Mac stepping into his bedroom just decided to go to sleep and forget all about that night. Forget about what he heard, what he saw, what he felt.
"I'm sorry Stella. I shouldn't have invaded your privacy like that." he said out loud to himself, just then when he was about to turn over a voice made him jump up
"Why did you leave?"
"Stella?"
