Alex sat at the table in the Late Nite Bite while Juliet gave her a lesson on why vampires should stick to the blood from the banks and not from a human or any animal. This bored the young vampire as she yawned and nodded off.
"Alex!" Juliet tapped the table to wake the brunette.
"This is boring." Alex whined, "I don't care why I should or shouldn't drink blood from bankers."
"Banks!" Juliet corrected.
"Whatever." Alex was becoming irritated.
"Okay." Juliet gave up. "What would you like to talk about?"
Alex sat up in her seat and crossed her arms. "What's the difference between a vampire with a soul and one without a soul?"
"Okay new subject." Juliet said quickly as she shifted her head to the side, what would possess Alex to ask that question. Then it clicked, she frowned, Joe.
Alex shook her head. "Okay." She stood up from the table and walked over to Juliet it. "Then tell me more about Joe."
"How about lesson over!" Juliet changed the subject as she started to set up the dining area, for the diner to open.
"Oh I see. You and Joe had a thing back in the day---" Alex teased.
"Did you drink his blood?" Juliet cut her off.
"No." Alex said flatly.
"Then why are you so all about Joe today?" Juliet gave a half smiled as she put down the last set of chair.
"I don't know." Alex shrugged, "He's just--- something about him, that," She paused. "Why won't you tell me about him and why I should stay away from him?"
"Alex can we drop this subject? Just know that now." Juliet huffed.
"One last question." Alex put her finger up. "Joe drank my blood and said we were tied together, how?"
"Because you have a soul, you still have certain human qualities and when a vampire drinks from a human, they sometimes can tied themselves to that human. Meaning wherever you go, he will know. Whenever you are in danger, he will know." Juliet explain then sighed. "He will also be able to get into your mind and know what you are thinking, but that's about it." Then she shot a look to Alex, "Unless you drank his blood. Then you and him become one and Joe feeds off that. Manipulating and deceiving your thoughts."
"Okay I get it. Stay away from Joe." Alex nodded. "Now can I go live my vampire life."
"Come back tomorrow and I'll show you how to use your wings." Juliet told her.
"Cool." Alex smiled she then left the diner then walked into the Sub Station after her lesson with Juliet and bumped into her brother.
"Just the person I wanted to see." Justin grabbed his sisters and dragged her into the other half of the sub shop.
"I made you this." Justin dug into his pocket and pulled out Alex locket, she had to give up because it was silver. It was now bronzed.
"My old locket." Alex said excited.
"I got it bronzed, so you can wear it. I charmed it, so it will protect you when you go out in the sun." Justin said proudly as she smiled at his sister as she put her locket on. "Now when they sun rises, you don't have worry about being perished." He added, "Now you and Harper can switch rooms again." He said as Alex let out a laugh.
"Thanks Justin." Alex hugged her brother.
"That's what I'm here for." He held her tightly.
"Wait!" Alex retracted from the hug. "If you can charm an object to save a vampire from the sun, how come you never made one for Juliet?"
"She told me not too." Justin nodded.
"Oh!" Alex said then shift her weight to her side and smiled at her brother.
"What?" Justin shrugged
"Nothing." Alex shook her head.
"You want to go out tonight?" Justin asked.
Alex glared at her brother, her face compelled with confusion. Was Justin asking her on a date?
"Not like a date." He cleared that up quick. "Just to get out the house, I know you're probably tired of the basement and the loft. We could go to the movies, the arcade, the mall, the park. If you want." He gave a nervous chuckle.
Alex's smile widened then gave a nod. She hasn't been out of the house since Transylvania, that night with Joe didn't count. "Sure!"
Justin smiled back. "Okay." He felt himself getting excited. Why? He didn't know. "Where would you like to go."
Alex put her lips together as her eyes wondered to the side. "We can go to the new mall that opened up last week. You know the one with the movie theatre in it." She suggested.
"Great." He nodded. "We'll go around 6."
"It's date." Alex smiled and Justin gave a nod.
-------
Meanwhile around the the turnpike in an old abandoned building, Joe leaned against the wall, with his legs crossed, he looked bored as he faced ahead of him, waiting for his prey.
"Joe?" A tall slender blonde walked into the room looking for the vampire. "You in here?" She called.
"I'm right here." Joe called from the shadows as the blonde turned around. He sighed and walked towards the blonde. "Let this over I have plans tonight." He let his fangs drop and the blonde screamed.
-------
Later that night Alex got dressed for her date with her brother. She wore a black short sleeved overlay shirt with a belt, a white tank top underneath, a pair dark navy blue jeans skinny jeans, with red patented flats. Her hair was pulled into a messy, but sophisticated bun.
Harper gushed over how pretty her friend look, even though she was paler than usual, she looked gorgeous. Harper wished she could go, but decided to let them have their brother-sister time.
The two friends then walked into the loft to see Justin waiting for Alex.
He wore a pair of black fitted jeans - not skinny jeans, his white button down shirt, a loose tie and his favorite gray and black fedora and all black converse.
"Handsome." Alex said as she walked towards her brother.
"Why thank you. You look ravishing." Justin complimented then smiled as he took his sisters head making her blushed.
"Am I the only one who thinks this is weird?" Max blurted as he watched his sibling flirt. This seemed more like a date then just a brother and sister going on a casual outing.
"This is weird to you?" Harper said in a nonchalant tone of sarcasm and Max rolled his eyes.
Justin grabbed the keys to his car and announced their departure before leaving out the door.
"They're gonna have sex." Max said and Harper smacked his shoulder and walked into the kitchen as Max smiled.
-------
She moaned as he bit into her neck. He had her against the wall while he drank her blood. His little blood bag is what he called her, only using her for her blood, when he's feeling weak.
He removed his fangs from her neck then throw her to the floor. He stood over her. "You're too sweet. Who have you been drinking from."
She knew she couldn't lie to him, so she told him the truth. "It's not my fault, he slipped it in my drink."
"Who have you been drinking from?" He kneeled to her level.
"Your brother." She sighed.
Joe grabbed the girl by her neck and slammed her into the wall. "I have no brother, my family has been dead for over 2000 years."
"He said he was your brother." She weeped.
"Name?" Joe queezed her neck.
"Paul." She managed.
"Paul!!" Joe smirked as he called for his brother.
Paul wasn't really his brother, but a close ally of his, they called each other brother since they were turned at the same time and they have been friends ever since.
Paul appeared next to Joe. He stood at 6'0, blonde hair, black eyes, porcelain skin, he looked around Joe's age, and a little cuter. "I was feasting on a pair of twins, what is it?" He said irritated as his fangs were still out.
"Make that a pair of twins and and a in-between snack." He grinned and tossed the girl over to his friend and walk away.
Joe could hear the girl scream as his friend ravaged the girl. He exited the building with a smirk on his face. A cold gust of wind touch his skin wiping the smirk off his face. He inhaled a scent of lavender as his eyes brightened and his smile widened. "Alex!"
-------
"Joe!" Alex breathed as she stopped in her tracks. She could feel his presence among her. Her eyes wondered the mall looking for any sign of the vampire.
"What?" Justin looked to his sister.
"Nothing." She shook her head.
"You sure." He asked.
"Yes!" She gave a nod and smiled at her brother as they started to walk through the mall.
Just then Alex felt a swift breeze and turned her head. She felt a pair of lips touch her skin and jumped.
It was if everything went silent and everyone in the mall had frozen. The mall started to spin around Alex, making her dizzy, she fell back into his arms and turned around.
Joe pressed his lips onto hers, her parting her lips with his tongue, his moist tongue caressing her mouth. Alex kissed back, cupping and caressing his face with her hands. He placed his hands on her hips, before he began to caress her back.
Alex closed her eyes deepening the kiss. She wrapped her arm around his neck. Joe pulled let Alex hair out of her bun, letting her hair drape to her back. He dug his fingers into her hair and pulled Alex from the kiss.
"You're enjoying this?" He smiled.
"Yes." Alex nodded.
"There is more where the came from." He winked then disappeared.
Alex blinked her eyes as everything went back to normal. She looked around the mall and turned to Justin, whom was giving her a funny look.
"What?" Alex chuckled at his expression and walked toward him.
"Didn't you have a bun?" Justin said, he could have sworn she had a bun.
Alex touched her hair then let out another chuckle. "No!" She shook her head and walked arm and arm with her brother.
Justin let it go, but something was up.

I know this one is short, my apologies. I had to stop right here. It seems that my computer is acting up once again. I hate Dell. Can't wait for my HP. Apologize for the errors. Not too happy with this chapter.
