NOTE BEFORE READING!
This songfic is different and weirder than the rest. None of the words are actually sung. The entire song is in the character's minds and thoughts. Normal dialogue is the same as it's always been.
Vlad: Bold
Mina: Italics
Dracula: Underlined
If you see anything that is both styles of font then it is both those characters at the same time. It's pretty simple but if you have questions just ask. Vlad is just thinking it all, so is Mina, but Dracula is actually talking. But since he is a ghost…we can't hear him. So…ya.

Blood Thirsty
Where was Henry when Vlad needed him? Lately, it has becoming increasingly obvious that Henry was purposefully throwing Vlad and Mina into awkward scenarios. Something about 'just wanting to see what happens', but Vlad knew what Henry was waiting for.
It wasn't something Vlad willingly tried to think about. Actually, he often tried his hardest NOT to think about it.
Maybe it was her delicious blood as it swam under the ivory of her skin. Perhaps it was the way she could possess his body, soul, mind…and heart? Or was it how she could say one word and everything around him disappears—sort of like someone turned off the all the lights and she was the only glowing object in the galaxy. Whatever it was…Vlad was too intertwined with Mina to be around her alone.
Now Vlad and Mina were abandoned at his house just after Henry called them and claimed he had student council stuff he had to take care of. Both the freshman immediately called her other cousin Joss to see if he would rather be with them for a movie or video games. Joss sadly told them that he had studying he needed for a class run by an evil teacher of some sort. Vlad and Mina both had nothing to busy themselves with like the McMillan boys and knew they would be bored without the other.
"So…How about a movie?" Vlad suggested and Mina smiled.
"Interview?" She hinted and Vlad directly went for Interview With A Vampire. One of Mina's favorites. After her vampire project in Otis's class last year, Vlad found that he and Mina could spend endless hours watching vampire movies and instead of watching them over and over again, they found that they liked to have debates about the film.
It was something Vlad liked about Mina. She was open-minded about vampires in all their ways, shapes, and forms—Except Edward Cullen; Mina couldn't stand him.
"I feel bad for Lestat." She muttered. "Sure he did some wrongs and annoyed the hell out of Louis but Lestat loved him and Claudia. I think they could have been a little less judgmental of the life he gave them—a life they chose—than hating on him for their own self-caused misery."
"I guess you have a point." Vlad shrugged.
"Louis agreed to be changed, and he only wanted him to stay so he created Claudia. It is love at one of its most desperate phases… changing another's life to keep it alive."
Vlad looked at her then. She had her legs curled up under her on the couch with her knees towards him. Everything about her was facing him but her eyes were on the screen. She met his eyes, noticing that he was staring, and blushed. Rather than sitting in the awkward air he had created she stood with a mumbled explanation that she was getting a soda.
She stepped over her discarded backpack but did not see Vlad's extended legs and biffed it over them. As she flew through the air destined to land on her face Vlad reached out with unintentional speed to catch her. He yanked her in towards himself and the safety of the plush couch. He huffed when she landed right on him and instantly pulled back with flushed cheeks. She supported her arms on the couch back on either side of him and her legs folding over his in a tangled mess. From saving her fall his arms were still on her waist and he had thought a bruise would spring up on his shoulder and her face from where they impacted. When she had pulled back they were still only inches away from each other.
Mina blushed that color he loved. His mind drew blank and all but his heart was frozen—the organ itself was hot with warmth and beating against his ribs. His living room had melted and the movie had gone mute in his ears.
Unwillingly, he wanted her lips on his, her body close to his, her eyes locked with his, and her heart beating with his. Vlad wasn't aware that he was moving closer to her until he could feel the tingle of her breath on his mouth and the warmth of her blood radiating from her skin. His fangs throbbed with each pulse of her plasma and his mouth grew dry. His lips parted as he let his eyes slip closed with the image of Mina awaiting his kiss imprinted in his memory. Yet he was not sure if his lips were parting to kiss her…or bite her. Both were problematic.
"No, we can't." He pried himself away with a horrible pain in his gut.
Mina blinked and pulled back, hurting his guilt even more, and she looked more than irritated. Stumbling off of him and the couch she went to the kitchen without a word or glance.
He groaned at her distance and frustratingly held his head. "I took a chance and made her feel like prey. I made my move and now she's walking away." Vlad shook his head. "If there was only some way that I could explain. If I tell her the truth she'll think I'm insane." He stood up and could see her standing in the kitchen, clearly puzzled and flustered. "The sad end to this love story; your best friend is bloodthirsty!"
"I don't understand why he's avoiding me 'cause it's in the air; sweet chemistry." She thought to herself and tried to make herself stop blushing. A smile fell on her lips and she felt something kick to life deep inside her.
Dracula was an unseen, unknown, and unheard of ghost trailing after Mina that she was still unaware of. He circled her, knowing that she could sense him but did not understand why she felt that way when she was alone. "The nap of your neck and the curve of your breast; it's the taste that he longs to test." He whispered in her ear and shifted her neck to the side habitually and he grinned, looking back at the Pravus in the doorway. The boy could not see him either.
"Kissing her a fantasy that's bitten my anxiety." Vlad lamented and stepped into the kitchen towards her. She was well aware of him as he stood close behind her.
"Just let yourself go." Dracula pressed as Vlad gently turned Mina to face him, which she easily complied. "Feel the beating of her heart." Their bodies pressed against each other as each and every feeling came crashing back to Vlad.
"I can't say no." Both drew their faces closer though both were trying desperately to fight it.
Dracula smirked wickedly. "Because you're falling hard. Sweet immortality…" He was on the other side of Mina from Vlad, whispering into her thoughts.
"Has got the best of me." She swooned and saw a tiny flash of purple in Vlad's black eyes.
His arm snaked around her to support her back against him while his other hand sought out the ivory of her neck. Mina allowed her arms to brace herself onto him and latch onto his shoulders. "'Cause you're irresistible, irresistible, irresistible."
"Just let yourself go. Let yourself go."
Mina did not rush as she waited for Vlad to move closer. "Just a little more."
"A little kiss." He told himself.
"Just a little peck." Mina closed her eyes.
Dracula chuckled mischievously. "It's just your neck."
"Just trust me."Vlad mimicked Mina and let his eyes close and body react on its own. Vlad felt his lips touch her flesh and the fiery delight of it caused his mind to swirl with red images of blood…and Mina. His fangs were full and sharp as they begged to stab into her veins and taste her scrumptious blood.
They were immobilized like that for some time. Mina was confused but decided not to deny the situation. Vlad relished in his temptations up until he realized that he was not kissing her lips…
Iridescent purple eyes flashed open as he broke away from her neck. He stood straight and took in their positions. He had leaned her back in a dip with only one arm holding her up, and his lips had hungrily kissed her neck. Looking over her throat he saw no blood and no wounds—only her necklace. He hadn't bitten her.
Dracula was proud of his work but disheveled when he saw that Vlad did not go through with his blood lust.
Being a phantom was difficult, and often a headache with these two mates so reluctant to face their fate. Mina was acceptant of anything and everything concerning Vlad thanks to Dracula influencing her. Yet as long as she remains human and oblivious to her reincarnations, all he can do is influence her and appear in minor dreams. Vlad, on the other hand, fought vigorously to resist Dracula's lovely little protégé.
Vlad shook his head. "I—I'm sorry." He lifted Mina back up and she blinked in bewilderment. "That was…weird. I'm sorry."
"Don't be," she said after she recovered. "I've seen weirder."
She lovingly brushed his bangs from his eyes and he felt her touch scorch his soul. He almost cried out from the tragic pleasure of the contact.
"Loser, I'm home!" They both went rigid at the sound of Henry's remix of 'Lucy, I'm home'. Vlad snatched his arm away from her and Mina let her hands fall. She spun to pop open her can of soda and Vlad decided to raid his refrigerator as Henry found them. "The Magnificent Henry has arrived!"
"Hey, dude." Vlad said as he tossed him his favorite snack: Poptarts.
"What have you guys been up to?" Henry asked while his full concentration was solely placed on the wrapper of his food. There was no way for him to see the look Vlad and Mina shared out of the corners of their eyes. "I see you started Interview?"
"Yeah…" Vlad started.
Henry looked up with a quizzical brow. "Anything happen without me?" Henry was no idiot and could clearly catch Vlad's embarrassment.
"Just snack time." Mina cleared her throat to save Vlad from Henry's tense look. "We all know it's your favorite too. We stuffed our faces right when we got home." Her cousin looked between the two with heavy suspicion. Yet he knew that neither would ever admit to what had occurred so he was smart to wait and ask them individually later. But he could always try…
"So…Nothing at all?"
"Nope."
"Nothing."
Vlad and Mina defied the urge to share a glance and sly smile. Dracula stood between them unknown to any of them. He rolled his eyes at them. The ghost vampire sighed when he thought what his life—or afterlife—had come to since he returned and was bound to Mina. "Bothersome Baby Vampires." His words went unheard as the teenagers returned to enjoying their time together for as long as they still could.
