Love Is Thicker Than Blood
Chapter One: Uninvited Guests
---------------------------------------
(Kai's POV)
I was relaxing the in living room, with Rei cuddled in my arms. We were stretched out on the couch in front of the fire, and I was running my hands through his silky raven hair. We were just spending a nice evening together after having spent the beginning of the night feeding. Even after five years of being a vampire, Rei still felt bad for feeding off people but knew there wasn't much he could do about it.
He had tried feeding off animals, just as me and Tyson had in the beginning. But an animals blood never satisfied ones thirst for long. So in the end he was just killing the animal population faster. It wasn't until I had sat down and had a talk with him that he changed his mind. I told him that he didn't have to kill the person or make them into one of us if he didn't want to. He merely had to drink enough blood to sustain himself. He would have to feed off maybe two or three instead of one, but that's the way the rest of us had ended up doing. None of us really wanted to transform anyone, or kill them. So we just drank a bit from each of our prey, leaving them weak and disoriented but nonetheless alive.
Now we were just enjoying a quiet evening, though the faint giggles of Max and Tyson could be heard as they played out back in the pond. Sometimes I still can't believe Rei decided to stay, and sometimes I think he still wonders what his life would have been like if he had said no. I don't ask him about it though. He always changes the subject when I try, so after awhile I just gave up on it. But its nights like this that I'm glad he said yes.
Its so nice to be with him, and hold him in my arms. I don't think I could have lived with myself if he had said no. I bent my head down and kissed his forehead, making him stir and produce a small little grateful purr.
--------------------------------------
(Rei's POV)
I was lounging in Kai's arms, feeling comfortable and loved. I loved just lying around in his arms. Being with him had made everything worth while. He's been so great. At first I didn't think it was possible but he has been so affectionate with me. I didn't think he was the type though grant you he's not very affectionate when anyone else is around. Its like he's an entirely different person with me. Well maybe not entirely, but like a warm- hearted person when he's with me. And the fact that he can be himself around me, and show me his affection is just priceless. I couldn't ask for anything better.
Its still hard adjusting to everything, and I miss the daylight, the taste of food, and other human things. But the fact that I'll be with Kai and my two best friends for years and years to come is just amazing. Its like I'll never have to be without them. I don't really have to fear losing them, and that is a great comfort to me.
I let out a small purr when he kissed my forehead. His affection is always welcome, and wanted. When I looked up at him though his eyes were glazed over and brooding.
"Kai...?" I asked quietly, wondering what was wrong.
Before I knew it he had moved from beneath me, and swiftly made his way out of the room. I was starting to get worried, and made quickly to follow him. This just wasn't like Kai.
-------------------------------------
(Kai's POV)
I could smell them as I neared the door. Fresh blood. What were human's doing around here? Adolescents came around once and awhile one dares. Yet these were no children. I could smell the blood of ones with more age than that of children. Though they weren't too far out of adolescence.
I could hear Rei following me, asking what was wrong. But I just kept moving. I know no one was invited so what were four... no five people doing out here. This wasn't exactly a busy neighborhood after all. I walked up to the window at the landing and peered out of it.
I could see a posh looking black vehicle, and what seemed to be the chauffeur holding the door for the others. Four people got out, but I couldn't quite see who they were as the gates inhibited my sight of them. It wasn't until the gates opened that I saw who was paying us a surprise visit.
I hissed at the sight. What were -they- doing here? They definitely hadn't been invited. And how did they know where to find us anyway? I sighed heavily as they came up to the front door. It seemed quiet evenings with Rei were about to be brought to an abrupt halt.
I brushed passed Rei who was still trying to get my attention, and before any of them could ring the doorbell I opened the door and glared at the four people standing in front of me.
"What are -you's- doing here?" I hissed, staring at the four men in front of me.
"Now really. Is that any way of treating guests?" the tall purple haired one asked in his 'I'm-better-than-thou' accent.
"I think its pretty hard to have guests when no one was invited," I retorted as they pushed passed me, walking inside.
------------------------------
(Rei's POV)
I had tirelessly tried to get Kai's attention, trying to find out what was going on. But he just wouldn't respond to me. Something had obviously caught his attention, and he was too absorbed in it to even hear me. I was quite annoyed by that, but when he moved to open the door I was quite shocked. Though I was even more shocked to find out who was outside.
"Robert, Johnny, Enrique, Oliver... what're you guys doing here?" I asked when they had all walked inside.
"Rei!" Oliver exclaimed happily as he headed straight for me and hugged me tight, and kissed both my cheeks.
"Its so good to see you!" n_n
"Its good to see you too Oliver," I said smiling back at our old time friend.
He hadn't changed too much. His hair was longer, but as shiny and healthy as ever. He wore tight blue pants with a matching baby tee that had 'Princess' written across it in what seemed to be real diamonds.
Robert was still much the same as ever. The only thing different about him was the fact that he was wearing a business suit. A very expensive looking suit, which wouldn't surprise me as he had always enjoyed the 'finer things' in life.
Both Johnny and Enrique dressed a bit more casual. They each had a bandana wrapped around their heads like a headband. Johnny's navy one was more for show while Enrique's black one seemed to be keeping his hair back which seemed to have grown out nicely. Johnny also had one tied around his upper arm which matched his navy wife-beater and black cargo shorts. Enrique wore a sleeveless, black button down shirt with the collar turned up, and white pants.
"Nice 'digs you got here," Johnny said as he looked around the place, taking in the authentic furnishings.
"Yeah, thanks. Mind telling us what you're doing here though?" Kai interjected.
