I follow the tall, mysterious, vampire to the back of the alley, where I see him set the man down, my ears perk up at the sound of laughter down the dark alley.
"Are we hunting now?" I whisper, confused, as he throws the body on top of a metal trash can, I'm surprised when it makes no noise. He really was stealthy.
He puts a finger to his lips, as he gets closer to the noise, and follow him, noting his footwork, how he dodges the puddles of water from rain.
"Stand in front of me." He says softly, and I obey him, as I run a hand along my hair, I wasn't nervous, I didn't feel anything towards this, until he stood beside me, his hot breath in my ear, and his cold hands touching through the thin material of my dress, I shudder lightly, hoping he doesn't pick up on it, I probably would hear it from him for days about how turned on I was from a mere touch.
Which should be true since I'm a virgin, I've never even kissed a guy. I close my eyes and control my breathing to quiet intakes.
"Okay, so what you're going to do." He whispers against my ear, as his fingers slide down my torso, and I can't explain the thoughts that run through my mind right now, but it feels.. great, like he's touching every inch of my body with his fingertips, I stifle a moan.
"You're going to take this energy." He states lightly, as his fingers brush against my skinny ribs, and down to the core of my stomach.
"Push off.." He says softly, as he moves his hands up to my torso again.
"And bite." He says, as he smooths back my brown hair, he pulls back entirely, and I feel cold from the loss of heat he was giving me.
"Ready.. set.. go!" He shouts, and I do what he says, harvesting the energy in my stomach, I feel it rise up, as I push off the ground, suddenly I'm in front of the drunk girl, her headband is half off, and her dress is wrinkled, a cup of beer in her hand.
I had never fed off a girl before, I wonder if their blood tasted sweeter, the smell of blood wafts through my nose, and I feel my mouth salivating, as I stand there, the same empty hunger feeling back in my stomach. I feel my face begin to change in the dark, but then I feel a rough hand on my shoulder, as Stefan stares at me, his green eyes burning into mine, as he shakes his head.
"No, you have to be sneaky." He whispers, and I feel my face begin to transform back into human, I grab the beer from the human's hands, faking a laugh.
"Can I take a swig?" I ask, as I eye her, and she smiles at me, her red lips glint in the darkness, and she nods her head.
"The more the merrier!" She shouts as she leans against me, and I can't help but to think how easy this is going to be.
"If you say so." I say softly, as my face begins to transform, and soon Stefan is over us, holding the girl, still, as she squirms, obviously becoming scared.
"Compel her!" Stefan half shouts, as I snap out of my thoughts, I get lower, and stare into her brown eyes.
"You are not going to scream or run." I whisper, as I stare harder into her eyes, her pupils dilate, and I see her lips moving, and I know that the compulsion worked.
The girl stands still, her red lips are trembling a little bit, and Stefan moves next to us, his green eyes staring at me.
"Now.. you want to go from the immediate kill, hit a vein." He states, I watch as he trails his finger down the girl's warm neck, I can hear her steady heartbeat in my ears, making me crave the blood more.
"But if you want to have a little fun, then just bite into her artery, it won't kill her instantly, but more blood the better, right?" He asks, and I nod my head fast, and his face begins to transform in the dark, and I watch as he takes a swift bite on the girl, drinking in her blood, his moans ring in my ears, and I can't help but to put my hand on his back, he stops drinking, and pulls away from her neck, I hear the faint noise of his fangs being pushed out of her skins, as he stares at me, his mouth bloody, and I want some of the blood, as I feel my face begin to transform, he smiles a toothy grin at me, and pushes the girl towards me in one swift movement, I bite onto her neck, enjoying the pleasure of blood going through my veins, as I drink from her, she doesn't move, and soon I feel her still over me, and I know that I killed her.
I pull back, licking my lips of the sweet blood, and stare at Stefan, I'm unable to read his face, his expression is almost demented as he looks at me, and then back at the dead girl in my arms.
"Well, you weren't supposed to kill her, but we'll work on that. Anyways, you get the basics: snatch, eat, erase." He says, as he lifts the girl over his shoulder, I watch as her ruby red headband falls, and I catch it in my pale hand, marveling at the beauty.
He notices this, because I feel him staring at me, as I look at the headband.
"And you can take that as your consolation prize." He says softly, as he beings to move with the girl, her face is relaxed, eyes closed, and her head lays on her back, I slide on the headband, fixing my hair, as I follow him into the night, this was going to be so much fun.
We sit side by side in a booth of an underground club, all the girls are dancing away in their light toned dresses, pearls hang from their pale necks, as their red lips laugh in the club, dancing with their boyfriends or husbands, or hookups. The boys look dashing in their suits, and Stefan smirks at me eying them, and I turn to him, an annoyed look on my face.
"What are you gaping at?" I ask, as I grab my champagne glass from the table, I raise it to my lips, taking a hearty sip, Stefan explained to me before the club that alcohol helped with the cravings, I am surprised he's so in control of his thirst when his humanity is off, but then I'm reminded that I'm considered a new born vampire and he must have been around for a long time, I also don't know that much about him but I don't see why it matters getting to know him, frankly I just think he's annoying.
"You don't want a human." He says in that judgmental tone of his, and I roll my eyes, and scoff at him lightly.
"You don't know what I want." I say sullen, as I take another sip, the champagne feels fizzy on my tongue as I swallow.
"I'm just saying.. they won't be able to keep up with you." He smirks in my direction, as he adjusts the little carnation in his tux, and my eyes raise up as I glance at it, then back at him.
"What do you mean?" I ask, as I look at him, my heart beats a little faster as he moves closer to me.
"Wow, you're so innocent, even with your humanity off." He comments, and I cross my arms over my dress, giving him a condescending glare.
He shrugs his shoulders lightly, as he smirks at me.
"I mean they won't be able to keep up when you have sex with them, their slow, and they probably won't ruffle your perfect feathers." He states, as he leans over, and grabs the champagne bottle, his touch sends shivers down my spine, as his fingers brush against my arm before he pulls back, grabbing the bottle, he raises it to his lips, and drinks a little, keeping his green eyes on me.
"This is getting kind of boring." He says with a sigh as he looks at me.
"Well, is there another way to feed?" I ask, as I set my glass down, fixing the red headband on my head, and he nods his head, there was probably a full blown knowledge in that old brain of his.
"There's the seductive way." He says softly, as he moves closer to me.
"But listen to me, you have to do it right, you have to be sexy." He teases me with his taunting smirk, and I roll my eyes, as I push him away, hard, he lands back on his butt, as he still gives me a devilish smirk.
"I can be sexy." I say in a determined tone, and he glances at me, as he chuckles lightly, like I just told the world's biggest lie.
"I can!" I say, as I stare at him hard, his green eyes lighten, as he shakes his head.
"Alright, alright, show me sexy." He says, as he gives me a disbelieving look, and I get out of the booth, determined to make him standing on my two feet, I push back my hair, and open my dress a little, walking into the crowd of men besides me.
"Oh, excuse me." I say softly, as I look down, and I hear the guy's heart beat pick up in my ears. I smooth back my brown hair, as he stares at me with his flirty blue eyes.
"Do you wanna dance?" He asks, as he pulls the black cigar out of my mouth, and I eagerly take his hand, as he leads me to the dance floor, I look back at Stefan, giving him a told-you-so smirk, and he rolls his eyes at me, as if to say it's nothing if you don't feed on him, but I ignore him, as the guy takes me on the dance floor, the music becomes face paced, and I find myself laughing while I dance with this guy, the world is spinning.
"Do you want to go in the back?" He whispers in my ear, as he trails wet kisses down my ear to my neck, I close my eyes, biting my red lips.
"Yes." I whisper breathless, as he takes my hand, and leads me out.
We're in the back, and he's staring at me like I'm a precious gem, I look into his blue eyes, feeling the prick of my fangs come out of my gums, my face hasn't transformed yet. He kisses down my neck, as his lips brush against mine, and in the back of my mind I'm yelling this is my first kiss, this is how you do it, and he pushes me against the wall, the shove makes me growl lightly, as I rip down his tux, and he stares at me amazed, before he kisses my neck, again, and I feel my eyes black with each kiss to my soft spot.
Before I can even think, I yank on his head, extending his neck to my view, it's warm, and I can practically smell the blood pumping through his veins, the metallic sweetness, makes me smile softly, as he stares at me, confused.
I waste no time chomping down on his tender neck with my fangs, the blood spills, and I hear his screaming in my ears, as I cover my hand with his mouth, drinking his sweet blood, slowly the screaming stops, and I remove my hand, amazed to see that he's still alive, wouldn't my mentor be proud?
He looks at me woozily, as I stare at him, licking my lips, my fangs are still out.
Suddenly, I remember Stefan's instructions, I was to feed my victim my blood to heal and then erase this from his brain.
I bite into my wrist, and shove my blood into his mouth, he doesn't accept willingly, but he chokes it down, his blue eyes wide at me, as my wrist heals.
I stare deep into his blue eyes, grabbing his face with my hands.
"You will not remember any of this, you found your way back here for some more alcohol, and now you're going back to the party to your friends." I command, and I see his blue eyes dilate slowly, his mouth moving in sync with mine, and I can tell it worked.
"I will not remember.." He trails off, and I let go of his head, disappearing into the darkness.
"Bravo." I hear a voice behind me, and whirl around to see my mentor on a trash can, his face is impressed, as he claps for me, and I smirk at him, giving him a little bow.
"Seems I underestimated you." He says, as he jumps off the trash can, and I cross my arms, mirroring his cocky stance.
"Seems you have.. but you can make it up to me by compelling me a drink." I say, as I flip my hair off my shoulders, and he smirks at me, holding out his arm, I take it, and we walk into the night together, and in the back of my mind I wonder if this drink will turn into something else.
