Chapter 45

                Alucard lie on his back, his hands behind his head comfortably, void of his hat and his glasses. He closed his eyes before he went to sleep, first sensing that Seras was already fast asleep; she deserved a rest.

                The next night he awoke, startled by something he was unsure of. He looked around and saw a ghostly light outline for a second, and just as he started to take it in, it faded. His pale red eyes concentrated on the area where it was located; getting up, he considered what it was.

                "Too much blood, maybe...mwahahaha...As if there is ever too much..." He disappeared and reappeared in Seras' room just as he did all the time, in his usual stalking manner. Her coffin top was still open, though, she was not up.

                He thought to himself about her again as he sat down at her side, and leaned over her with his hands propping his upper body up on either sides of her head; his face millimeters from her's, he smiled and looked at her.

                "Hmmm...Sleepy sleepy, Seras...mwahahaha!"

                Her eyes slid open groggily and she rubbed her head. "I could go without the alarm clock routine, master..."

                He looked at her in his amused expression. "Now where would the fun be in that, sleepyhead..." Still leaning over her, he turned to his side and lied next to her, not being able to resist; it almost became like a ritual. Seras eyed him warily.

                "So...How bad did Miss Hellsing read you the riot act?"

                His hand traveled to the side of his face in remembrance to the sharp, sudden slap on the face; he put his hand back down just as quickly as he picked it up.

                He scootched up to her, his face next to her's from the side.

                "Hmmm...Well, Master is always quick to anger when it has to do with me and you...mwahahaha..." He looked down a little afterwards, just dawning on him that it wasn't really that amusing. Her face faultered as her eyed looked into him.

                "I have a feeling this will be hard."

                His eyes went paler than they were and his features darkened, half-hidden in the shadows.

                "...Important things never are easy, Seras."

                "Hm? Important, you say?" She thought. "You've got a point..."

                He looked at her amused, insanely. "What? You thought you weren't important?! Mwahahaha..."

                "Wha? I didn't say that!" She raised her hands defensively in front of her face, grinning all the while. He wrapped his arm around her midsection, his face millimeters from her again.

                "I'm only playing with you, Seras, I know what you meant...Ah, even with being yelled at by my master...this is worth it..."

                She decided to give in, and put her arms comfortably around his neck.

                "Oooh...She's gonna kill us..." She said, joking again in her singsong voice. Alucard was entertained by this and put his other arm around her, smiling evilly at her. The thoughts in his mind wheeled as he remembered his master's warning, and how much he liked Seras...enjoying the position...

                He cackled in his throat. "She's not going to kill us Seras...She's going to massacre us and ignite our bodies on open flames."

                Seras raised an eyebrow skeptically. "Hmm...Now that sounds tempting." She said; her voice filled with sarcasm and dread. She rarely liked being on bad terms with anyone, but in their current situation, it could not be helped.

                "Does it...?" He joked with an evil intent. "...Or does something else to bother her more sound good?"

                Seras rolled her eyes up; away, and then back again like a chameleon.

                "I guess my fate of 'surviving' in this organization is slime to none already." She hinted.

                He cackled, his face now livid with life. He moved his arms more on her to inch closer, his eyes staring directly into her's.

                "We're already dead, Seras...surviving has nothing to do with it..."

                She scoffed. "Eh, you know what I mean, master.."

                Alucard already knew that, but he was having fun with her as he usually did. He tried to make her feel better; he guessed she was probably still a little weak from the previous night.

                His eyes were in a bright red, peering at her; he didn't have his hat or glasses, so therefore it was a direct look. He grinned warmly at her, moving his hand more onto her back.

                "Do I? Or is there another meaning to 'survival'?" He raised his eyebrows slightly, giving off the so-called air that he had no idea. Seras snickered.

                "Only you would know, master." She was doing her evil mind games to him yet again; his face went emotionless for a moment, and just as quick, picked up again.

                "Yes, I would know, because I am master...mwahahaha..."

                She facefaulted and eyed him through eyes that were tiny slits; her voice was near to monotone.

                "Uh-huhh..." She seemed to be egging him on, testing him to see how much longer he could talk mindlessly. His face straightened out a little and became more serious. His eyes shifted slightly, and focused on her.

                "Hmmm...Well, Seras, don't worry about this organization...Integra couldn't throw you out as you are too deep into the hierarchy. My master won't admit it, but she does like what you have done for the organization in the past..."

                She smiled, having been reassured a little. "That's good to know."

                Alucard adorned his little half grin again; his eyes still deep red with warmth and compassion shown, very unlike the old Alucard. But something was holding him back; he knew that.

                He moved closer, resting his head against her collarbone.

                "Even now, if she tried to get rid of you...I would stop her, risking my own neck."

                "...That you've had hacked off so many times that I have lost count." She finished the sentence, her gloved hands resting comfortably on his shoulders now, looking down awkwardly at the top of his head.

                "Think about how many times I have lost it with you here and times that by a thousand...mwahahaha...That's the right amount of times...Yes, it is no wonder that I am dead..."

                Seras looked around the room skeptically. "I daresay that would be a lot." His hand moved so it would rest on her side more.

                "Well, I have been alive a long time..." He sounded, for once, sane as he contemplated things. Seras nodded mutely; he looked up at her through the strands of his hair, his pale red eyes somewhat harder to see. With his forever-bearing half grin he inched up so that their faces were level. He blurted out something that really didn't pertain to their current conversation at all, but it was rather more entertaining.

                "Hmmm...Seras...You know there is something you are thinking of doing..." He cackled, and she looked at him.

                "There might be...Things that'll get Integra even worse on her bad side..."

                "If we are dead anyway, does it really matter?" It was like he was inching up on her; his arms wrapping around her middle some more, making his face practically zoom in on Seras', utterly close.

                "I guess...No, no it doesn't."

                His mind soared with ideas, one after another; those to piss off Integra with his fascination with Seras.

                "He he he...Just like old times; rebelling against the master...not much ever changes," He eyed her a little more, finishing his statement smartly. "...Well, this is a change."

                She smirked. "So what's the plan for tonight, master? Tee-off Integra and then go out to train? Or piss her off, train, then come back and piss her off again as you meet with her tonight...?"

                He considered this briefly, his red eyes hazy with possibilities.

                "Hmmm...How about we sleep in." His eyebrow was raised. "...Then go out for some more fun training...piss her off more when we return..."

                Seras blinked, interested. "Sounds innocent enough."

                Alucard's eyes flickered malevolently as he grinned. "Oh, what ever do you mean, Seras...? Innocent can be so misleading."

                "Then I might as well just go to sleep now; I might mislead you more."

                "Hmmm...I could do with some misleading."

                Her eyebrow rose as she looked up at him. "'Some'? Why not all, eh?"

                He looked at her, his eyes telling that he wanted to badly, but his brain shot him down, telling him otherwise.

                "Hmm...So you want this, then..." He looked down at himself, then back to her. "Well...Come on, then, take it!!" He flipped her and made her lie on her back as he jumped over her, his arms still around her. His head at her neck pulled up, peering closely at her face as an enormously evil grin spread across his face.

                "What are you grinning about, eh??"

                He cackled whole-heartedly, still a tad on the insane side. "...I have you pinned Seras...What are you going to do about it?!?!"

                Seras cocked her head to the side, remembering this position quite well before...that happened. Her face turned expressionless as she remembered, but shook it away, and face spread out with a wide grin.

                She whipped out her hands from his sides and grasped either side of his face, pulling it the extra half-inch to hers. She knew exactly what she would do about it.

                Alucard, to be blunt, was smothered by Seras. He was enjoying it immensely, however, this becoming as no surprise when talking about Alucard...

                His left arm practically ran from her side, up, and held the back of her head; his other hand holding her at an odd angle across her side and back. After a few minutes he dared himself, dragging his tongue down to her neck, where he kissed her absentmindedly as he pushed the collar of her uniform down to continue.

                He could still sense the blood in her; trying hard not to bite when they were so close...
