Oxford Not Brogues

Chapter Six

The girls were having a wonderful night out on the town. First, they hung out at Rachel's house for about half an hour before heading out to a popular club called White Noise. For the last hour and a half, they've been chatting away, drinking, and dancing. The club had a dark, but warm atmosphere. Every table had a small candle that illuminated just enough light to see. The bar had an outline of blue and pink neon lights while the dance floor was illuminated by multiple strobe lights. The music sounded softly in the background as Simon, Rachel, and Brianna danced on the dance floor with other people. Vixen had gone to the restroom, but on her way out she started mingling with a cute guy at the bar. So, Seras and Elena sat at the table alone, drinking and talking. The small blonde only had one glass of wine while the vampire had at least four shots of tequila and was working on her fifth.

"You know, I've been thinking about what you said earlier, how you want to move things along in your relationship with Alucard and Sebastian." Elena spoke as she played with one of her empty shot glasses.

"What?" Seras questioned with furrowed brows as she subconsciously ran her fingers along the ring of her glass.

"What are you going to do?" The brunette asked with a shrug. "How are you going to tell them that you want to…"

"I don't know," The small blonde interrupted with a light shake of her head. "I want to tell them tonight, but I don't really know how."

"You want to call them and tell them?" Elena suggested, but Seras shook her head.

"No," She answered with a sigh. "I'll wait until I go home."

"But what will you say?" The brunette asked for a second time.

"I don't know." Seras repeated while she watched her drunken friends dance. She smiled softly at them. "But…I think I have finally decided something."

"Yeah, what?" Elena asked. The small blonde took a deep breath as if she needed it to calm her nerves, despite her looking beyond calm and even happy. She then glanced at her friend from the corner of her eye and her smile widened a little.

"I'm ready," Seras said confidently and she took the last sip of her wine. The brunette furrowed her brows in confusion.

"Ready for what?" Elena asked.

"I want to sleep with Sebastian and Alucard." The small blonde snickered before a dark blush decorated her cheeks. She then bashfully hid her smile behind her hand. Elena's jaw just about dropped when hearing this. "I know, it sounds crazy. I never, ever thought I would have a three way in my life. But…it never occurred to me that I would have feelings for more than one man. I just…" Seras dropped her gaze to stare into her empty wine glass. "I just really like them." She whispered with a warm look in her eyes and a tender smile on her face. "I have no idea where this decision will lead; if it will be just a one night stand or…something more, but…I want to take a leap. I want to share a night with them." The blush on her cheeks darkened further. "God," Seras exclaimed softly as she cupped her hot forehead. "I'm so nervous. I've never had sex before. I don't know what to expect, and there's two of them. It seems so…intense and kind of scary. I'm so scared that it will go wrong. What if I'm bad?" The small blonde glanced back at Elena to see such a wide, amused smirk on her face.

"I don't know," The brunette answered honestly with a shrug. "You'll just have to do it, no pun intended." She snickered. Elena then leaned forward to place her arms on the table. "Do you think you'll do it with them tonight?" She asked in a whisper, as if people would overhear them.

"I don't know," Seras whispered shyly. "Maybe," The smile slipped from her face when a thought struck her. "I mean…it's up to them. They…might not feel the same."

"Dude," Elena snickered as she cupped her friend's hand. "Trust me; those blokes aren't going to turn down sex if it's with you."

"But what if they don't want to have sex with me?" The small blonde asked, feeling less confident by the second. "What if that's not the kind of relationship they're looking for."

"What kind of relationship do you think they're looking for?" Elena asked her with a look of disbelief on her face. Her brows were drawn to together and she gazed at the blonde as if she was stupid. Seras lightly shrugged her shoulders while she frowned at the table.

"I don't know. Maybe they just want companionship. That's all they talk about really, is being of good company to me." Seras murmured. "And…neither of them ever made a move." The girl glanced back at her friend. "If they…wanted me…in an intimate way, how come neither of them had ever made a move on me? Neither of them had ever tried kissing me. Maybe they don't see me in a sexual way." Elena shook her head.

"You're thinking about this all wrong." The brunette sighed in what sounded like frustration to Seras. "Alucard and Sebastian never made a move because they were respecting your space. Think about it, Seras. When they first showed up in your life, you were terrified of them. They couldn't even touch you without you having a panic attack and locking yourself in your room. They vowed to you that they wouldn't touch you without permission. You made the first move after that. You voluntarily started holding their hands. But since you haven't told them your true feelings, they don't know if they can properly seduce you without scaring you away. That's why you need to make the first move, Seras. Tell them how you feel." Elena then snickered and that smirk returned to her face. "Those boys are going to be so stunned and ecstatic when you tell them that you're taking them to bed with you." Quite suddenly, the brunette burst into laughter. She slapped a hand over her forehead, threw back her head, and laughed so hard that people actually turned to stare.

"What is so funny?" Seras asked as she watched the girl in slight fear. "I have never seen you laugh so hard."

"God, I am truly and deeply scared for you." Elena said through laughs. She didn't witness it when her friend's face paled drastically.

"Scared for me?" The small blonde whispered in concern. Why would her friend be scared for her? The brunette sighed after laughing so hard and she slumped down in her chair. Her eyes were glued to their friends as they continued dancing on the dance floor. A small smile still graced her lips, but she was still unaware of the almost horrified look on Seras' face.

"Alucard and Sebastian are basically sex gods." Elena explained to her. "Girls would kill to spend a night with them."

"Oh," Seras muttered as she glanced back down at her empty wine glass. "That's not entirely surprising." She shrugged. "They are really old, so they have years of experience."

"It doesn't bother you that they've been around the block several times?" The brunette snickered as she glanced back at her friend. Seras lightly shook her head.

"Not really," The little human answered. "Again, they're both really old. I didn't expect them to be virgins." She then furrowed her brows while giving the brunette a curious look. "Why does this cause you to fear for me?" The smile slipped from Elena's face.

"I shouldn't have said anything, I'm sorry." The brunette murmured as she turned her head to look elsewhere.

"No," Seras responded as she gently grabbed her friend by the arm. "Tell me. Why are you scared for me?" The frown on Elena's face deepened before she glanced at the small blonde from the corner of her eye. The two girls sat there and stared at each other for several seconds. Then, Elena sighed through her nose and lightly shifted in her chair to face Seras.

"Before I say anything to you, there's no reason for you to be scared, Seras. Alucard and Sebastian adore you; they would never do anything to hurt you. I was just…talking out my ass…despite…what I say being true." Elena spoke, worrying the little blonde further.

"Elena?" Seras whispered. "What are you talking about? What truth?" The brunette took another deep breath before continuing.

"Alucard and Sebastian have very dark desires. I don't know the extent of it, but…there are plenty of stories from women who have spent a night with them." Elena proceeded. Her gaze dropped, unable to stand staring into Seras' eyes and seeing such concern. "Apparently, it gets pretty intense in the bedroom…and…sometimes quite harmful…for the woman. As I said before, Alucard and Sebastian are…sex gods, but…that's not always a good thing." The brunette then fully turned her head to stare at their table. "But…I didn't want to discourage you from…getting intimate with them, Seras. Because you're their mate and because you're human, I doubt things will get too intense."

"What do you mean harmful?" Seras interrupted softly.

"Well," Elena drawled, sounding hesitant wanting to share anything more with her. "I don't know exactly, but the girls I've spoken to that…had sex with one or both of them had similar cases. The sex would be hard and extremely rough, there would be clawing and biting, a lot of hair pulling too apparently."

"That doesn't sound too bad." The small blonde muttered with a small smile, looking a little more relieved. "I think I can handle that sort of stuff." She snickered with a shimmer of confidence in her eyes. The brunette glanced back at her.

"What are you talking about?" Elena snickered. "That was not the harmful shit I was talking about. That stuff is basically considered vanilla sex to those guys, and let me tell you, Alucard and Sebastian are into hardcore BDSM shit." The smile slipped from Seras' face.

"Oh," She murmured. "Then…what else is there?"

"I don't really know." The brunette answered with a shrug. "I've never done it with them; I've only heard stories."

"So tell me," Seras demanded lightly.

"Huh?" Elena muttered and she looked at the small blonde in bewilderment.

"Tell me the stories you've heard." The little human elaborated while giving another small smile. "If…I'm going to get intimate with Alucard and Sebastian…I think I should learn a little bit more about the things they like. At least, so I can understand them a little more and prepare myself in case they suggest some of these things to me."

"You're not…scared?" The brunette asked, looking beyond stunned. Seras giggled and she lightly shook her head.

"Nothing you've said has scared me yet. And it's like you said, Sebastian and Alucard won't hurt me. So far they have been nothing but kind and gentle. And…if it's true that I'm their mate, I don't think they will force me into anything that will make me uncomfortable." Seras spoke softly with a warm glimmer in her eyes. "And as I said several times, these guys are both centuries old. It doesn't surprise me that…they've grown to like BDSM." She then took a deep breath and allowed her smile to widen. "Depending on the stuff…there just might be something we can compromise on so…I can fulfill some of those dark desires of theirs." She finished with a blush on her cheeks. "What stories have you heard?"

"Wouldn't you rather have this sort of talk with Alucard and Sebastian?" Elena asked her carefully. "I don't know them all that well and I've never had sex with them. All I've heard were stories and I don't know if any of it is true…Though, I doubt those stories are false. Alucard and Sebastian are creepy blokes."

"I'm embarrassed asking them." Seras groaned. "I wouldn't even know how to ask them. I rather just hear it from you what you think they're in to. Eventually…when I get intimate with them, their kinks will be revealed to me."

"I'm sorry, Seras." Elena sighed. "But I'm not saying anything. If you want to learn more about Alucard and Sebastian and their weird BDSM kink, then just ask them yourself."

"BDSM?" Someone repeated. Seras and Elena lifted their heads to see that Vixen had finally returned to the table. The woman was tall with long frizzy red hair. She had deep brown eyes and a face full of freckles. She had legs to die for and was killing it in a short dark red dress with matching heels. She sat down at the table across from her girlfriends with a giant smirk on her face. "Who is speaking my language and why?" She joked with a charming giggle.

"It's nothing," Elena attempted to blow her off, but the small blonde wasn't going to allow that.

"I was," Seras spoke up, earning the redhead's attention.

"You?" Vixen questioned with a look of shock. For as long as she had known Seras, the small blonde had been such a quiet, innocent little thing. She was adorable and sexy, but lacked such confidence and self-esteem. That's why it was bewildering for Vixen to hear Seras talking so openly about BDSM; it definitely piqued her interest. "Why?"

"I just want to know what it entails." The small blonde answered. "Elena won't tell me." The brunette shot her an almost dark look full of annoyance. Seras threw her an equally dark look.

"Why won't you tell her?" Vixen asked with furrowed brows as she glanced back at Elena. The brunette sighed in vexation and lowered her gaze to glare at the table.

"Because we were talking about something else entirely, and she wanted to know more about that particular subject." Elena explained without giving details to the redhead. She then gestured towards Seras. "But she wants to know more about BDSM. That's your department, so go right ahead and tell her all about it." Vixen merely snickered before looking back at the small blonde.

"So, what did you want to know?" The redhead asked her gently.

"I get that a big part of BDSM is bondage, sadism, and masochism, but what else is there? What more can you do to a person that is actually…pleasing? And what does the D stand for in BDSM?" Seras asked her questions.

"Discipline," Vixen practically purred with an even wider smirk. "My favorite part,"

"Oh," The small blonde murmured and she actually drew her head back in uncertainty, looking somewhat concerned. The redhead sat up straight in her chair and crossed her legs.

"When your lover does something…wrong or disobeys a direct order, you punish him the way you see fit. If he learns from his mistake, you award him any way you like. You must take great care in your pets though. Always praise them, award them if they do good, tend to their wounds if there are any, and show them affection afterwards. Subs eat that shit up." Vixen continued. "Unless you're the sub?" The redhead asked with a quirked brow. "Perhaps you'd like your partner to discipline you? Make sure he knows your limits, Seras, and have a safe word."

"A safe word?" Seras repeated.

"Yes, the safe word for my boyfriend is 'pomegranate'. Whenever he uses it, I must stop everything that I'm doing and make sure he's okay. Make sure your lover knows your safe word." Vixen explained.

"So…what kind of punishments…are there?" The small blonde asked with a dark red blush on her cheeks.

"Well, the type of punishment I like to enforce is not allowing Gabriel to cum when he acts up. When he does something wrong, I normally pull out the chastity cock cage." The redhead laughed.

"A what?" Seras asked with a strange expression on her face.

"Forget it," Elena snickered with a light wave of her hand.

"Other suitable punishments would be a spanking, humiliating him, or deny him sex. Or deny him to cum and have him pleasure you." Vixen proceeded.

"How can you…humiliate someone during sex?" Seras asked.

"There are a number of ways you can humiliate someone, Seras, especially during sex." The redhead snickered while lightly shaking her head at the clueless girl. "Make them get on the floor and walk around like a dog. Give them commands as if they're a dog. Make him wear a butt plug for hours until you can tell him to take it out. Fuck him in the ass with a strap-on or use your fingers. Make him spend the entire day naked, and if you want to be really mean, make sure the whole house is freezing or make him cook something hot and greasy."

"And…what if…I'm the sub getting the punishment?" The small blonde asked hesitantly.

"Are you in a relationship, Seras?" Vixen asked finally. Her brows were furrowed together and her smirk actually slipped off of her face. "Is the guy you're seeing into BDSM?" Without thinking, Seras shook her head instantly.

"No, I'm just…curious about all this stuff is all." The small blonde answered, but she felt as if that was a lie. Why would that feel like a lie when she wasn't technically dating or with Alucard and Sebastian? She lowered her head while a deep frown formed on her lips. She was so confused any more. After several seconds, Vixen sighed and continued answering her questions.

"If you're the sub, it's your partner's decision what the suitable punishment would be." The redhead responded with a light wave of her hand. "I can't say what it could be; it could be anything. There are tons of different punishments he could give to you." She then flashed another small smirk. "But I don't want to discourage you from trying. BDSM can be really fun, especially if you find the right person to do it with."

"That's very nice…in a sadistic way." Seras muttered under her breath.

"What other questions do you have?" Vixen asked with a raised brow.

"Um…" The small blonde murmured. She leaned back in her chair while she thought carefully about her next question. "What other kinds of kinks are there for BDSM? What should I expect be…asked of me…if I had someone that was…into this sort of thing?" She asked shyly.

"Well BDSM and kinks in general are kind of two different things. BDSM is all about bondage, discipline, sadism, and masochism. Sadism and masochism can go a long way and be made up of several different kinks. But I'm guessing you want to know what kinks there are that are brutal or dark." Vixen explained. Seras nodded her head in agreement. "Well, there are dozens of kinks that are unusual and perhaps worrisome. Some guys can be into watching his girl get fucked or gangbanged or vice versa. Maybe the chick is into her guy fucking other women…or being fucked by guys. Whatever floats their boat." Vixen snickered with a light shrug. "Gagging is a big one. Either choking down your boyfriend's hot…"

"Vixen," Elena interrupted, giving the redhead a stern look while the small blonde blushed fiercely. "Sickening,"

"Like you don't give your fella head?" Vixen giggled.

"That's not the point." The brunette grumbled. "I just don't like that kind of language."

"Hot beef?" The redhead teased her. Elena and Seras visibly shuddered from those words.

"I don't like it either." Seras admitted softly. "It's not very…sexy; it sounds gross."

"Whatever," Vixen replied with a roll of her eyes. "As I was saying, when gagging is applied, it could be that he wants you to deep throat him or perhaps use a ball gag."

"Deep throat?" The small blonde repeated with a pale face. She wasn't entirely sure what that meant, but she could imagine. It sounded painful. Vixen ignored her though and proceeded on.

"Whipping and flogging is pretty big to those with dark sexual desires." The redhead said, causing Seras' eyes to widen. Was this what Alucard and Sebastian were in to? Did they want to whip or flog her?

"Isn't that a little dangerous?" The small blonde asked hesitantly.

"Any of these kinks can be dangerous." Elena intervened.

"Not if you do it right." Vixen answered with a light shake of her head. "Whipping and flogging should be agreed to by both parties: the Dom and the Sub. And again, your Dom has to know your limits. He should start off light with the hits and if it's too much or not enough, you tell him. Communication is key when you're trying things like this, Seras. If you don't say anything, he could end up hurting you. And before he does anything, make sure he knows what he's doing beforehand. You don't want him somehow injuring your spine or kidneys or some other organ or body part. It's best to stick to the sides of the back or the legs or ass." The redhead then raised her hand as she listed off many more kinks. "There's role playing, cock and ball torture, asphyxiation, wax play, the list can go on and on. There are kinks and fetishes for basically everything."

"Wow," Seras whispered after Vixen was finished speaking. The small blonde looked so disturbed. She was pale in the face and her eyes were still open so wide while she just stared at the redhead in disbelief. Her head was racing with everything Vixen just told her. What sort of things were Alucard and Sebastian in to? But then a new question struck her. What was she in to? Seras has never put into thought the things she could possibly be into. She had never thought much about sex, no less any kinks she would have. But…what if she…liked some of the things that Vixen had listed off? What if she liked some of the stuff Alucard and Sebastian want to do to her…That is if they were into this sort of things. She was still unsure if they had dark desires like Elena had stated. What should Seras expect when she starts getting intimate with Sebastian and Alucard? She…was willing to be open-minded, but admittedly, she was a little scared too.

"Hey!" Brianna broke Seras from her thoughts. The small blonde's head shot up to find that her other three friends had finally returned to the table.

"Hey," Elena muttered a greeting as she continued playing with the empty shot glasses in front of her. Brianna was just an inch or two taller than Seras. She had beautiful, soft ebony skin and a short, curly afro. Standing next to her was Simon and Rachel. Simon, a man in his early thirties, was about Seras' height and was a little on the large size. He had large muscular arms, but a bit of a belly. But, somehow, his stature only made him look like a lovable teddy bear, especially with that fuzzy dark red beard and hair of his. He wore simple black hipster glasses with a black turtleneck and beige khakis. Rachel was the tallest of the group, standing at least five feet and eight or nine inches. She was very skinny, but still had a nice figure and long, straight brown hair that flowed over her shoulders and down her back. She was very quiet, as usual, as she just stood there in her dark purple dress that ended mid-shin. The three of them had such giant smiles on their faces. Brianna and Simon were actually huffing out of breath from dancing so hard. There was even a light layer of sweat on Simon's forehead. The three sat down at their table.

"What have you guys been talking about?" Simon asked as he picked up a menu from the center of the table. "I don't expect a lot of dancing from Elena or Seras, but Vixen, you surprise me. It was impolite of you to keep me waiting on the dance floor." He played with the redhead. Vixen formed such a wide smirk on her face and she giggled at the delightful man.

"Sorry, I got roped into a discussion with Seras." She apologized. She then lightly hit Simon's hand. "I promise you a dance next."

"I'm sorry, but is there something wrong with my dancing?" Brianna chimed in with a laugh as she glanced over at Simon.

"No, darling." The man chuckled sarcastically. "You're a little hellion on the dance floor and my feet are sore from being stepped on so much." This earned a chuckle from the whole table. "But I do enjoy your enthusiasm."

"You are wicked," Brianna laughed.

"Let's order some food and while we wait for it to come to the table we can hit the floor again." Simon suggested as he opened the menu and started skimming through it.

"Whose place are we hitting tonight?" Rachel asked then.

"What?" Brianna asked after taking a large gulp from her margarita.

"Well, we always go back to someone's place to play some games. Are we not doing it this time?" Rachel asked with furrowed brows.

"I'm up for it," Simon responded with a bright smile.

"Same," Vixen added.

"I can stay out for a few more hours." Brianna muttered with a mouth full of icy margarita.

"Then whose place are we hitting?" Rachel asked once more. "I can't go back to my place. Todd is asleep and Thomas is probably heading to bed soon because he has work in the morning."

"How old is that little bugger now?" Vixen asked.

"Todd?" Rachel asked thoughtlessly as she glanced over at the redhead.

"No, Thomas. How is that man child of yours doing? Of course, she means Todd." Simon laughed while shaking his head.

"Oops," Rachel snickered with a light blush on her cheeks. "He's a year old; just turned it in May."

"It seems like just yesterday you brought him home from the hospital." Brianna muttered. "He was such a small bundle."

"Well, he's gotten pretty big." Rachel responded.

"It's been forever since I last saw him." Brianna proceeded.

"You and Marta should come over for dinner sometime next week." Rachel suggested, but then she jolted slightly in her chair and looked at the rest of the group. "Or perhaps we can make it a group thing? You can all come over if you want and bring your fella."

"As of right now, I don't know if I can make it. It depends when it is. We'll talk more about it later." Vixen murmured with a wave.

"So…whose place are we going to?" Simon asked as he looked around the table at everyone.

"My place is a mess…" Vixen had started, but was interrupted.

"Honey, that's nothing new." Simon snickered. The redhead playfully hit his shoulder.

"I would offer, but you guys weren't happy the last time I brought you over." Brianna spoke up.

"That's because every game you owned the game pieces were missing." Simon told her. "Who does that? How does that even happen?" Brianna merely smirked.

"It's a gift." She answered with a shrug. Since Elena and Simon didn't offer their places, Seras did.

"We can head back to my place…though I do have guests at the moment." The small blonde offered.

"Well, as I always say, the more the merrier." Simon practically purred.

"You should see if Marta wants to join. You can text her my address." Seras suggested as she glanced over at Brianna.

"Sure," Brianna muttered as she pulled out her phone. "I think she's just about done hanging out with her own friends. So she mostly likely might join us." She murmured as she started texting away.

"Do you have games?" Simon asked. The small blonde nodded her head, but before she could list off the games she had, Vixen interrupted.

"More importantly, does she have booze?" The redhead snickered.

"You're insatiable." Simon laughed. "How many drinks have you had already?"

"Hey, if the room is not spinning then I'm not drunk enough." Vixen responded. Seras merely smiled and giggled as those two bickered; a regular routine for those two.

"No, I don't have alcohol, but we can stop at a liquor store on the way to my place." The small blonde answered.

"Good enough for me." Vixen muttered. She then gestured her head at the menu in Simon's hands. "Order the food; I'm ready to dance now."

"Yes, your majesty." Simon teased her, earning another playful hit in the arm.

"You're the only queen here." The redhead retorted.

"And I rule over all you bitches." Was Simon's response, getting another chuckle from everyone around the table. Seras pulled out her phone before gingerly grabbing Elena by the arm. The brunette shifted her head to glance at the small blonde curiously.

"I'll be right back. I'm going to call them to warn them." Seras snickered. She then glanced at the rest of her friends who were still teasing each other back and forth. "Make sure they order spicy chicken wings."

"You got it." Elena replied while Seras got up from the table. As she dialed her landline, the small blonde walked towards the restrooms where it was a little more quiet and private. The phone only rung once before it was answered.

"The Victoria residence," Sebastian's voice came through.

"Hey, Sebastian, it's me." Seras answered, but before she could continue, he was saying something.

"Seras? Is something wrong? Is someone bothering you? Alucard and I can be there in…" The frantic demon was interrupted by a charming little giggle from the small blonde.

"I'm fine," She assured him. "No one has bothered me."

"You're positive? You wouldn't be lying, would you?" He asked her carefully, sounding somewhat suspicious.

"Everything is perfectly fine. I've been with Elena the entire time. No one has bothered us." Seras assured him once more. There was a moment or two of silence.

"I'll take your word for it. Are you having a splendid time?" Sebastian asked, now sounding a little more cheerful.

"Yes," The small blonde answered with a nod of her head and a warm smile. "I'm having a great time. Are you and Alucard alright?"

"Yes, all is fine here." The demon purred.

"Good, good." Seras whispered. There was another moment of silence before she decided to continue. "Anyway," She murmured. "My friends are coming back to my place. I just wanted to warn you and Alucard, you know? Hide Alucard's coffin and the blood bags that are in the fridge. Whatever else that needs to be hidden."

"Very well," Sebastian responded.

"Oh, Sebastian," The small blonde spoke again.

"Yes?" He answered so smoothly.

"You know how you can change your eye color to blend in with the humans?" Seras asked. Before he could answer, she was continuing. "Can Alucard do that?"

"Yes, I'll speak to him about it for you." Sebastian promised.

"Thank you," The small blonde whispered.

"Did you want Alucard and me to leave the flat so you can spend time with your friends?" The demon asked, sounding disappointed. The small blonde's brows drew together and she frowned.

"No, Sebastian, of course I don't want you to leave. You and Alucard don't have to. That's why I asked you if you can speak to Alucard about his eye color, so you both can stick around with my friends there." Seras told him.

"Are you sure?" Sebastian questioned.

"Why? Do you not want to be there?" The small blonde asked softly, afraid of the answer he will give.

"Of course I want to be there. I was just unsure if you wanted us there." The demon snickered.

"You and Alucard can stay. Maybe you guys can play the game with my friends and me?" Seras whispered nervously, afraid to ask him directly to stay and spend time with her and her friends.

"If that is what you want." Sebastian purred. Seras could practically hear that smile that she knew was on his face. It brought a smile to her own face along with a blush.

"Great!" She exclaimed with another charming giggle. "We'll probably leave in about an hour. We're going to eat first and dance some more. And then on the way back to my place we're stopping by the liquor store. So you and Alucard have about an hour to hide everything and get ready." She repeated.

"Excellent," The demon responded, his voice was so soft and warm in her ears. Even without him being there, she felt so tranquil and safe just hearing him.

"See you soon," Seras was barely able to get out in a whisper.

"Goodbye," Sebastian breathed. The little human snapped her phone shut and lifted her head to look back at her table. Elena was the only one sitting at the table. The rest of their friends were back on the dance floor having a good time. Seras returned to the table and sunk into her chair with a deep sigh.

"So, did you tell them?" Elena asked as she gingerly brushed her finger along the rim of her shot glass.

"Tell them what?" The small blonde asked as she placed her phone back in her purse.

"About your feelings," The brunette snickered. "What else?"

"No," Seras whispered with a frown. "I'm not going to do it over the phone. I'll wait until later tonight, after everyone leaves."

"Okay," Elena responded with a shrug and a sigh of disapproval. "I think you should just get it done and over with. You're killing them by not communicating with them, and I'm sure it's killing you on the inside not being able to tell them how you truly feel."

"It's fine, Elena." The small blonde scoffed in frustration. "I just don't think it's right admitting my feelings over the phone. I can't see the look on their faces or be able to read those expressions. Besides, when I do tell them…I was hoping…I was hoping that…if they felt the same we could…"

"Jump straight into bed?" Elena teased her with a smirk.

"No," Seras drawled with a snicker. "But…something…I don't know what exactly. Maybe…share a kiss or…I don't know. I just want the moment to be right, to be passionate. And telling them my feelings over the phone isn't passionate in the slightest."

"I understand what you mean." The brunette whispered. "I just…don't want them feeling like…you don't care or that you're playing them or something. And I don't want you feeling hurt or worrying about them not being able to return those feelings. They're crazy for you." Elena whispered.

"I hope so…because I think I'm a little crazy for them too." The small blonde whispered with a pleased smile on her face. Right then, Seras' eyes flickered towards a man sitting at the bar. He was about mid-thirties with dark hair slicked back and dark eyes. He had an almost perfect smile with perfect white teeth. He was dressed in a navy blue button up shirt and black khakis. And he was staring right at her and Elena. When locking eyes with this man, his smile widened and he raised his glass to her. Not even a second later, he winked at her. Seras, for some reason, was unable to look away from him. The smile was completely gone from her face as she just stared at the man who stared right back. She watched as he snickered before ever so subtly raised a hand to place over his mouth. Parting his forefinger and middle finger, he made a disgusting implication with his tongue. Seras' cheeks flushed from the perversion and, feeling uncomfortable, she lowered her gaze to stare at her table. From where she sat, she heard that man laugh at her from across the room. She gripped her arm tightly and bit hard into her tongue.

"Hey, Elena?" Seras whispered. The brunette shifted her head to glance at the small blonde curiously.

"Yeah?" Elena responded.

"Do you remember when I first met Alucard and Sebastian and you told me about them marking their territory?" She asked. The brunette's smile slowly slipped away as her brows drew together. She was quick to notice that Seras' behavior had changed drastically. Just seconds ago she had been so cheery and smitten, but…now she was embarrassed and quiet, liking she was hiding or something. She was slumped so low in her chair with her arms crossed over her chest. Her eyes were glued to the table and she had such a deep frown on her face that it actually saddened Elena. What happened?

"Yeah?" Elena whispered, wondering where Seras was going with this.

"Did…it work? When you came over today, did my flat smell like them?" The small blonde asked.

"Yes," The brunette answered softly. "Seras, what is this about? What's wrong?"

"Do…I smell like them?" Seras asked her. Unexpectedly, the small blonde lifted her arm and brought her nose to her wrist. She sniffed at her wrist, as if she had sprayed perfume on herself and was testing to see if she liked the scent or not. But when she smelled nothing, she only looked more disappointed and sad. "I can't smell them, but…maybe that's because I'm human. Maybe only supernatural creatures can pick up their scents on me." Seras then looked up at Elena. "Are…their scents on me?" Elena stared at her for a long few seconds.

"Yes," She whispered with a slight nod of her head. The vampire could smell Alucard and Sebastian on Seras strongly. Their scents marked the small blonde, warding away all other supernatural beings from her. But, Elena wasn't out to claim Seras, so their scents didn't scare her away like it would others. And that scent was only going to get stronger once Alucard and Sebastian claim Seras in a sexual manner. This seemed to have pleased Seras in some way because she smiled softly.

"But it doesn't work on humans, does it? They can't smell Alucard and Sebastian on me?" The small blonde asked. The brunette shook her head.

"No," Elena whispered "Unfortunately, human males will still be attracted to you because they lack the sense to be able to smell Alucard and Sebastian's scents on you." The brunette then arched a brow. "Why? What's wrong?" Seras then gestured her head towards the bar.

"I don't like the way that guy is staring at me. And…he just made a crude gesture with his fingers and tongue at me." The small blonde whispered. Instantly, Elena looked up with a deadly look in her eyes. Her eyes skimmed the bar before finding the man that was basically ogling Seras. He did look like a creep. Clear desire shone in his dark eyes as he stared at Seras, hoping the blonde will look his way again. He liked seeing how uncomfortable Seras was under his gaze, it turned him on, and that sickened Elena further.

"Wait here," The brunette growled and she quickly got up out of her chair. The man didn't see the angry vampire coming right towards him. He was still too busy trying to make Seras squirm beneath his gaze. When Elena reached him she made sure to get right in his way, blocking the small blonde from his view. The man's smile fell and his eyes flickered up to meet her heated gaze. Elena crossed her arms over her chest as she let her hostility show. Despite the killer look in her eyes and the danger he felt in the air, the man liked what he saw. He liked how angry she was, he got amusement from it. Another sinister smirk crept onto his lips while his gaze became mocking. He casually took a sip of his brandy while he stared Elena down. "Look elsewhere, you're making my friend uncomfortable." Elena growled as she tried to keep her cool. She couldn't murder a human in the middle of a mortal joint.

"I am looking elsewhere." The man responded, and then he purposely agitated her further by running his eyes up and down her body. "And I am very much liking what I'm seeing." He snickered as his eyes trailed back up her body slowly. Elena clenched her fist, but she gathered just enough self-control not to hit him. However, it didn't stop her from gripping the man's jaw tightly and lifting his head so their gazes met.

"Listen, asshole, my friend and I aren't interested. Stop staring at her and just go home and play with yourself. I'm sure that's what you do most of the time anyway because what woman would be stupid enough to go home with a fucking sleaze like you?" Elena hissed in his face while she gave him a withering glare. The smile was long gone from his face and he looked beyond pissed. He swept her hand away from his face.

"Blow me, bitch." The man retorted.

"Sorry, but tiny dicks don't really interest us. We only blow real men who treat women decently and respectfully. They deserve it, unlike you." Vixen responded much to Elena's surprise and delight. The redhead came up from behind and wrapped her arms around Elena's neck while resting her chin on her shoulder. They both stared at the man in pure disgust. Simon and Brianna stood close behind. They had seen Elena getting into some type of quarrel with the man and decided to see if she needed backup. Rachel was currently in the restroom. "So why don't you go home and blow your mum, and tell her how well she did raising such a lovely son. She did a standup job with you." Vixen added sarcastically. The man glowered at them for a few seconds more before lowering his gaze.

"Fucking bitches," He grumbled under his breath as he slammed his glass down on the bar. He then shot out of his chair and brushed past them to leave the club. Vixen laughed in Elena's ear.

"That was fun." The redhead snickered. The brunette pulled out of her arms and turned to face her friends. "Are you alright?" Vixen asked.

"I'm fine," Elena muttered with a soft smile. "Thanks for the rescue. The creep was bothering Seras and then he started in with me."

"Forget him, he's gone." Simon responded. "Why don't you and Seras come and dance? Get your minds off that creep and have some fun."

"That sounds nice," The brunette whispered with a brighter smile.

"It's about time you guys hit the dance floor!" Vixen laughed as she, Simon, and Brianna sprinted back to the dance floor. Elena chuckled at the lot before she glanced back at the table where Seras sat. The small blonde was still slumped in her chair with her arms crossed over her chest. Her blue eyes were glued to her. She had sat there and waited anxiously to see what Elena would do when approaching the man. The brunette smirked at her best friend and approached the table.

"Come on," Elena spoke as she offered Seras her hand. The small blonde jolted but she didn't hesitate placing her hand in Elena's ice cold one.

"What are we doing?" Seras asked.

"Let's dance." The brunette snickered. The small blonde smiled and she bounced out of her seat. The two girls headed to the dance floor where the rest of their friends were. Seras and Elena couldn't help but laugh as they held each other's hands and danced in their own childish, spastic way. But it didn't matter because they had so much fun doing it together. Seras hoped to God that they would always be the best of friends.
