I set the razor back in it's place and gave myself a good glare in the mirror, pleased with the way my eyes narrowed in a sinister manner. Heh. I pulled on a black t-shirt and exited the bathroom, looking around for Fujin, who had obviously left... Oh well. I pulled on my boots, and exited the house for work. Still raining? Damn... Fujin had probably gone to work... Hm... Why do I keep thinking of her...? Maybe because I'm so content... Hehe. I signed into the Balamb Police Station, where I work as an officer. Kinda funny, if you think about it... I mean, two; three years ago, I was trying to destroy the world, and now I'm working to "make Balamb a better, safer community." Oh, yeah, better, safer community my ass. I just need the money. I sat at the desk, chewing at a pen, waiting for the action that would never happen. Rainy winter days were always so god damn slow... I wonder where Raijin's been... I wonder where Fujin works... Heh, I'm her child's father, and I don't even know where she works... Probably a hooker, I mean she gives some really good sex... Fuck, more bad thoughts. Sorry, Fujin. I banged my head on the desk until it hurt, then I just looked around... Hmm...

~*~*~ I remember one night, a long time ago, when I had followed Fujin to Balamb during the winter. There was a huge blizzard, and the hotel was booked so, I stayed in Fujin's rented room.

"Followed you..." I told her. That's why I came to Balamb. Well, sort of. Actually, the real reason was that I wanted to apologize for being saved by her, causing her to "kill" Shanai. Shanai was her best friend, I guess... And Fujin didn't have many friends... Didn't think she wanted any... you know...

"I SEE..."

"You like the snow?" I had asked.

"PREFER RAIN."

"I see... Well, I'm gonna sleep..." I was (am) such a selfish bastard. Sure, I'll take the fucking bed. I know you feel fucking uncomfortable after I ruined your innocent self, but I'll take the bed anyway... Fuck...

"FINE." And I slept... Hehe. And I woke up. She was still staring out the window, and I remember praying that either the snow had stopped, or, she had gotten sleep. She turned, and didn't look like she had slept, also revealing the snow still coming down. ~*~*~

"Almasy, take your frickin' break." Some other officer said to me, waking me from my reverie. I didn't bother to figure out who the fuck it was, I just grabbed my Hyperion and left, making sure I scowled at him on my way out. I went to get coffee, deciding that I really needed the caffiene. So, I walked into the Balamb Cafe, and looked around. The place was fucking deserted, I mean, literally, there was no one there... Heh, must be cause of the all of the rain...

"Ah-chooh! Shit." Fujin. Shit, how the fuck did I know that...?

"Hey, can I get some fucking service?" I asked, leaning on the counter.

"Well, I don't know, hold the fuck on." Tch. She came out, and looked up, surprised it was me, and pressed her lips together apologetically.

"Service with a fucking smile, as always, Fujin."

"Fuck you. What do you want?" She crossed her arms over her chest in a defensive manner, glaring at me... God fuck, you'd never guess what we were doing this morning.

"A black coffee. Large." She nodded, and exited to the back.

"Ah-chooh! ...Dammit." And I said in a mocking tone:

"Wash your hands, Fujin."

"Fuck off, Seifer."

~~~

When I got home at around one am, Raijin was still not home.

"Alright, where the fuck is Raijin?!" I asked to no one in particular.

"I have no f-" She stopped, mid-cuss. "IDEA. NOT HAVE." Fujin said, looking up from her book, that she was staring into as she sat on the sofa.

"Was he home earlier?"

"TEN P.M."

"Shit..."

"WHAT?"

"Nothing, he's just *extra* fucked up lately." She sighed to herself, shaking her head, and went back to reading her book. So aren't I, then again. I walked into our bedroom and looked around. The sheets had been changed, which caused me to wonder how the hell Fujin worked from nine to twelve and still had time to do this shit. Not my concern. So, Fujin works as a waitress at a cafe'. Dammit, wrong again, I thought as I plopped on my bed. I could smell her blood off the pillow, and lust for it I got scared the shit out of me. I'm *not* a frigging vampire, so what the hell is this...?

Well, I'll tell you right now, Fujin picked the wrong time to walk into the room; wrong fucking time.

"Hey, Fujin..."

"SEIFER." She greeted with a nod and a slight cough. I got out of bed and walked over to the bathroom, not wanting to scare the shit out of her again like I had last night.

"Fuck..." I muttered, looking in the mirror while running my hand down my face. I had an anxious feeling inside of me- one I didn't understand all too well, so I just walked into the bedroom. Fujin was just pulling a tshirt over her head as I plopped on the bed, and I found it odd how she didn't even acknowledge my presence. Heh... I glanced out the window, and the rain was still pouring down from the skies, but by this time, I was pretty sure it was sleet.

"SEIFER. ARE OKAY?" She asked, looking down at me with concern written on her pale face... Which only made me feel worse, because I seen the bruise on her cheek.

"...Fine." I said, covering my eyes with my arm, feeling guilty and the like. I knew she wouldn't press on, I mean, why would she? Dammit, I want to taste her blood again... Why the fuck though? I stood up and grabbed her arm, then pulled her to me, where I kissed her.

"Seifer..."

"Shh." I bit at her lower lip, trying desperately for the blood I longed for..

"Seifer... what the fuck are you doing?" I bit down harder, not able to control myself at all.

"Oww! Seifer!!" She moaned. I let go, not able to get enough blood through her lips. "What the *fuck*?!" She nearly screamed, bringing her fingers to her bleeding lip. She wanted an explaination. Shit. What the fuck was I doing?! Fuck...

"Sorry, Fuu..."

"Well, god... What were you doing?"

"Just uh... kissing you."

"Kissing me? Try 'eating me'... Dammit... You did the same thing last night, but I figured, 'fine, okay, no problem... he's just drunk, or high, or something' but give me a break. What the fuck?"

"Fuck off, Fujin." ...Shit... I think I shouldn't have said that...

"Okay... fine..." She turned, and prepared to exit the room.

"NO, Fujin!" I grabbed her arm. What am I doing...?

"What?"

"I... was just... sorry..."

"Its fine, Seifer... Forget it."

"No, Fujin... I just... I don't know..." I kissed her forehead, and she looked at the ground.

"Its okay... Um, though, why were you... well you know...?"

"Its stupid. I don't even understand... Your... uhhh, blood... is... err... tasty...?" I uttered, feeling like a friggin' idiot.

"What...?"

"I dunno. Just is."

"...Okay... then. I'm gonna get some sleep..." She looked at me like I was insane, and I couldn't blame her.

"I think I know why..." She turned to look at me.

"Hmm?"

"Because its what keeps you alive... Therefore its what I want..."

"Seifer... Urm..." She wore an uncomfortable look as she approached me, yet I grabbed her, kissing her immediately, not understanding the sudden urge to kiss her that I had just recieved.

"Seifer..."

"Shh, Fujin... Okay?"

"Yeah..." I laid her on the bed and fumbled around in her draw until I found the dagger she kept with her at all times.

"Seifer, what are you doing?"

"Asking your permission."

"For what?"

"Your blood..."

"Seifer, you're acting like a vampire... Thats silly though... You should rest..."

"No... I mean it. I'm fucking serious." Why?

"...S-Seifer, you're scaring me a little..." She sat up on the bed as I approached her.

"Please...?"

"...Yeah..." What am I doing...? Fuck... So good though... I crawled on to bed and rested my body over hers, wondering where to cut her. Her arm, would be safest...

"I'm sorry... Fujin..."

"..." I held the dagger to her arm and applied pressure, moving it slowly down until she had an inch long cut, with blood seeping out slowly. Her body jerked foward in pain until it touched mine, and I brought my mouth to the cut, sucking diligently. The familar taste filled my mouth, sending me into a world of complete ecstacy, while I sent her into one of fear and pain. Fuck! I stopped soon after the realization hit me, and looked down at her. She looked up at me, a tear of pain in her eye. I kissed her, without biting her- hoping it'd make up for something....
