Carlos woke up to some glorious, GLORIOUS smell. It sort of smelled like his mom's chicken quesadillas.

He got up, running his tongue over her fangs, satisfied by their feel. He felt entirely different. So full of energy- a different kind of energy. Like he wanted to just jump on something or shatter a window or something.

"Good morning, my love," he said cheerfully, unable to keep from hugging Kendall from behind, who was pouring two mugs of blood in the kitchen.

"Oh- honey- breaking my ribs," Kendall laughed, hearing his bones cracking. Carlos loosened his grip and his new fiance turned, surprised by the way Carlos forced him up against the counter and kissed him roughly. He was a lot stronger than Kendall right then.

Carlos loved Kendall before he was turned. But now it was like Carlos couldn't keep his hands off of him, like he just wanted to suck Kendall's face off and fuck him for days on end.

Kendall laughed after he realized that they had been kissing for a long time and broke it.

"I made you breakfast- nice and warm for you."

Carlos took the mug in his hands, bright red clouding and dancing around his dark pupils.

"What does it smell like to you?" Kendall asked. "James says it smells like bacon cheeseburgers. I smell spaghetti. Logan smells some quail shit. What is it to you?"

"My mommy's quesadillas," Carlos said, tilting the mug to his lips. Jesus it tasted glorious- so sweet.

Normally one whole bag was enough for a vampire for a day or so, but when Carlos finished and looked up at Kendall, red still swirled in his eyes.

"More?"

Kendall gave his own mug to his fiancé, giving him a strange look as Carlos polished it off with a bloody smile.

"Thanks, boo," he sang, kissing Kendall.

"You're weird now."

"Why? Cause I love you a billion times more now?"

Carlos initiated yet another makeout-session, and this time his lips trailed to Kendall's neck, Kendall's head falling back in pleasure. But he jumped, suddenly ready to fight, when Carlos' fangs sank deep into his shoulder.

"CARLOS!" he almost yelled. Carlos was glued to him, though, pinning him to the counter.

He was finally able to push him away, heart pounding.

"That hurts," he hissed, hand clapping over the bite mark. Carlos used his thumb to wipe black blood from his chin to his mouth with a wink.

"James says Logan does it all the time," he shrugged innocently.

"You have to warn me first!"

"I'm sorry, baby!"

"What's wrong with you?"

"I'm going next door," Carlos said, almost in a daze. What was wrong with him? He was feeling so feisty, so ready to kill. He WANTED to kill.

He ended up not going to see James and Logan at all. He left, clad in his PJ's and hopped in Kendall's car, whose keys were always in the glove box.

He wasn't sure where he was going. He really, REALLY, wasn't feeling like himself- he almost felt possessed.

After cleaning up the bite on his shoulder, Kendall changed clothes and went next door.

Logan and James greeted him with surprise, like they didn't expect him to come over while his fiancé was there.

"Where's Los?" he asked, looking around.

"He isn't here," James said in confusion. "You should know where he is."

"Where do you think he went?" Kendall asked timidly. "He was acting so weird this morning- he had one and a half mugs then he bit ME. Not like aggressively, but he did."

"Logie?" James asked Logan, who always had an answer.

"Well… It isn't common…"

"What?"

"Some vampires, when they wake up, they are so bloodthirsty and almost evil that they go on a sort of rampage… But that is about one in thirty. It only lasts their first day- they do not know how to cope with the change and lose control."

"You don't think…" James said quietly.

"I have a tracker!" Kendall said in remembrance. The tracker was in case Carlos lost his cell phone or it was stolen- Carlos had one for Kendall's phone, it wasn't creepy at all. "In his phone! But… He left it in the car last night… Fuck…"

"I bet he took the car," James said.

Leo had thought he heard things all morning. The window latch moving, a creak on the floor, some breathing behind him, but nobody was in the house. He was beginning to think there was a ghost. Or he was losing his mind.

He chuckled and turned off the stove, slipping his eggs onto a plate. But the plate was gone… Hm… Strange. Maybe he WAS losing his mind.

As he reached to get another one, there was a thick shatter noise, and he didn't realize that something had broken over his head until thick shards of glass plate was showered over him and he started to see stars.

Strange hands grabbed the back of his shirt and forced him to the ground.

Confused, Leo looked up into endless black eyes, huge pupils only visible by the outline of bright red dancing around them. A vampire?

He struggled, but only half-heartedly. He knew that these days vampires were much more tame, and maybe only wanted a sip of his blood.

But when he started moving, the vampire hissed at him, showing shiny fangs- everywhere. An entire mouthful of sharp, pointed teeth like a true leech. Leo screamed, knowing nobody was in the house to hear him, and the beast struck.

Carlos had never felt anything so glorious as tearing through a human's neck, the human bleeding like crazy and screaming for mercy.

He wasn't really awake at that moment. He wasn't Carlos, like he had woken up to be. The day slowly escaladed to this, and he was just some monster in Carlos' body.

He was roughly grabbed by the stomach and torn from the person.

Kendall watched from beside the fridge as his Carlos writhed against Logan, blood dripping in waterfalls down his chin, his mouth full of broken glass, all stained red with blood. His Carlos roared and hissed, reaching for the man who pressed a hand towel weakly to his wound, about ready to pass out. They had arrive just in time- the man would have died if they were just seconds later.

James' arm was tight and secure around Kendall.

"It's okay, buddy, Logie's got it. Logie's a badass- he'll take care of everything."

"He's a monster. A real one- straight out of a scary movie," Kendall whispered, eyes huge as Logan slammed Carlos against the wall, a stern hand around his throat, eyes ablaze. Still this monster was trying to fight against the stronger vampire and desperately trying to get to the bleeding human.

"James? Come take care of this while I take care of the man!" Logan called over the hissing and roaring. James kissed Kendall's hair, grabbing a knife on his way to Carlos and stabbing it in his stomach to pin him while Logan went to the human and carried him upstairs, where he would clean up his wound, suck the venom out, and compel him to sleep and not remember anything that happened.

"You think you're a badass, Los?" James taunted as Carlos snapped at him clawing helplessly at him, pinned to the wall by the huge knife and unable to move. "No. You're just scary!"

After a while, Carlos wore himself out somehow and calmed down. Kendall came up to stand safely behind James, and Carlos caught sight of him.

The redness disappeared from his eyes and the shark teeth turned back to Carlos teeth, save two fangs.

"Kenny," he whispered, reaching for him. Honestly he wasn't too sure what happened- it was all so hazy. But why did Kendall look so afraid of him?

James stepped forward to push Carlos against the wall and pull the knife out before going to wash it and put it back. Carlos stepped toward his Kendall, but Kendall stepped away.

"Kenny," Carlos said again, confusion on his face.

"You're a monster, Los. What if that man dies?"

Carlos' hand brushed against his chin and came back bloody.

"I didn't mean to," he said.

"What if he turns you in and they find you and kill you?"

Bloody tears sprang up from Carlos' eyes, but he couldn't seek comfort in his fiancé, he was AFRAID of him.

"You don't have to be scared of me," he said pitifully. "This'll never happen again."

"Well I am."

Carlos was silent, letting the bloody tears track down his tan skin.

"I can't marry a monster, Los. Who knows when this'll happen again?"

"W-what?"

"I don't know how safe you are to be around… And until you figure yourself out…"

"Kenny," Carlos pleaded tearfully.

James arms appeared around Carlos', his cheek on Carlos' hair, not a hint of fear in him. Kendall's eyes dropped tearfully and he turned to leave. Carlos whirled around to bury his face in James' chest, so confused, so heartbroken, so ashamed.

"Let's get you cleaned up, bro," James said softly. He handed Carlos off to Logan, who heard everything.

"I didn't mean to," Carlos sobbed into Logan's shoulder. "I'm me again! I didn't even get to t-tell him that."

"Flowers always help," Logan suggested.

"He likes r-roses."

"We'll get him some roses."

"He won't take them. He hates me."

"No- he is only trying to scare the monster out of you. He is more heartbroken than you are, but this is his way of making you hold down that bloodthirsty monster in you. He knows that as your maker, you will do anything for him," Logan said softly. He turned Carlos around so that James could wipe drying blood from his face with a wet paper towel.

Kendall sat sniffling on the couch, feeling like shit, waiting for Carlos to show up. He hoped to God Carlos called his bluff, because he really didn't want to cancel the wedding. He just wanted Carlos to know that he was serious about this- he spent most of his life killing monstrous leeches, and he wouldn't marry someone like that.

It had been almost an hour and there was a knock on the door.

"Kenny? I forgot my keys!"

Kendall smiled a little and got up, trying to take his time to the door. He hoped that somehow Logan and James had told him how to cope and gotten him under control.

He opened the door to find an adorable little Latino in his PJ's, his bloody t-shirt replaced with Logan's shirt, a sorrowful pout on his face and a bouquet of red roses in his hands.

I'll leave you alone with that adorable image in mind.

Just imagine a knock on your door and you open it to find THAT. Aw jeez, who can turn sad Carlos down?

And I'm sorry to put that freaky image of demonic Carlos in your mind. But wasn't it cool? I think yes.
