The blood from the vampire rose
"Ow my back is stiff from sitting in that chair" Seras groaned as she climbed out of her bed. The vampire had not let her move from that chair until she had finished reading, although she loved to read she could only to so much. The young girl stretched her limbs and rubbed the sore area on her back
"I hope I don't have to do that again tonight" she rubbed her eyes and flexed her fingers so that they clicked
"ah, it's way too dark in here" she said to herself as she pulled open her curtains to find the whole of the garden covered in a white blanket of snow and it was still falling. She dropped her jaw and began jumping up and down in excitement
"It's snowing!" she gasped in delight She rushed around the room grabbing something warm to wear , she then found a pair of think brown boots with fur on the rim, she began to put them on when Rip came into her room
"Good morning seras" she smiled the hands of time ticked past her face
"Rip I am going to go outside if that's ok" Rip looked confused
"What for?" seras looked at her as if she did not know how to breathe
"It's snowing Rip that's why" she spoke pulling on the other boot, Rip gave her a wry smile
"Why would you want to go outside if it snowing?"
"To have fun!" Rip looked at the young girl as if she had never hear the word
"Hey why don't you come with me...we could have a snowball fight!" But before Rip could protest, seras swooped up the clockwork Object and started to run down the hall way. She passed by Walter and Schrödinger
"Were are you going Miss Victoria?" Seras span round
"Me and Rip are going to have a snow ball fight" she replied , Walter looked at Rip who was being held very tightly in Seras arms , Rip gave Walter a look to suggest that she did not have a choice, this made the teapot chuckle
"Well have fun...why don't you take Schrodinger with you I am sure he could use the excise"
"Hell yeah! I would never miss the chance to throw snow at Rip" the teacup spoke giving the clockwork Rip an evil glare
"Great then" seras spoke picking up the small teacup and dashed down the hall way
Outside (ten minutes later)
"Hey no fair I was not even ready!" Schrodinger growled at a very smug Rip who was tossing a snow ball up in the air then catching it again
"Well you know what I say, tinker tailor, solider sailor, my snow ball punishes all without distinction" she spoke giving the teacup a smug grin, she then threw the snow ball at the teacup causing him to fall backwards
"Ha ha! Right between the eyes!" she teased
"Hump!" While the Clockwork Rip was enjoying her triumph she felt a large snowball slam into her head, making her loose balance and fall face down into the snow, seras giggled
"Got ya!" she yelled while coming out from her hiding place. Rip pulled her face from the snow and she turned to look at seras
"Haha you look like Santa!" she joked
"Nice one seras!" Schrodinger spoke hopping over to Rip
"Hey you can see your face in the snow" Seras spoke, Rip looked down at her face print
"...very funny" she muttered while wiping the snow off her face. Seras looked up at the sky, it was completely clouded and white fluffy cotton flakes were starting to fall, one fell on seras's noise making her sneeze, this caught Rips attention
"I think we should get you back inside the master will kill me if we let you catch a cold" seras frowned
"I won't" but she sneezed again and again and found herself shivering
"Ok maybe I should"
"I thought so" rip spoke rolling her eyes
"Well let's get you in the warm and I think master said you could use the lounge it you wanted to" seras smiled
"Ok then" The three started to make their way back inside the castle
The lounge
"there you are Miss Victoria" Walter spoke as he tiled his body do that hot tea splashed in to a green mug, the mug moved towards seras allowing her to pick itself up , she sipped the tea feeling the warm liquid trickle down her throat warming up her body.
"ah thank you Walter the tea is delicious" She spoke putting the mug on the small table next to her chair, she glanced over to the chair sitting closet to the fire it was his, she pulled her eyes away from the chair and looked into the fire as she watched the flames dance she remembered the night before hand
"Alucard it's almost midnight, please let me go to bed" she pleaded
"Not until you finish that chapter" he growled back making seras burry her head in the book. She sat up straight and continued reading
"Oh swear not by the moon, the inconstant moon , That monthly changes in her circled orb, lest that thy love prove likewise variable , she spoke to Romeo who smiled before speaking again, what shall I swear by?" seras paused , Alucard looked confused
"What is wrong?" His voice held a small growl, he had been enjoying her reading and did not want her to stop, seras looked up at the vampire
"I am just enjoying the atmosphere" she smiled
"Atmosphere?"
"yes I am really enjoying my self...And I think this is the first time that I have felt like this since I came here" she spoke unsure if her words would anger him
"Good because I would like you to read to me more often"
"Yes I have the rest of my life to..."Seras realised her words were poorly chosen as it made him growl at her
"That was your own choice seras, I did not force you to take your fathers place"
"He is not my real farther" she spoke wanting to change the subject, It worked Alucard had taken a sudden interest in the new topic
"Oh?"
"Yes he is my step farther, my real parents...died a long time ago so he took me in"
"How did they die?" seras froze and her eyes became dark
"...Alucard I really am tried...I want to go to bed" Alucard stood up and leaned against the fire place
"What happed to your parents?"
"Why don't you just read my mind?"
"You told me that I had to ask your permission first" seras mentally slapped herself for telling him that,
"I don't really want to talk about it" Alucard turned to face the human who was sat crossed legged on the fluffy carpet
"Do you refuse?"
"Yes" Alucard gave her a thoughtful look
"Very well then" seras looked up with a look of puzzlement
"...W...what?" Alucard sighed
"If you do not wish to tell me I understand" Seras could not believe her ears and took the opportunity to tease him
"Who are you and what having you done with Alucard" The no life king gave her his trademark grin
"I am right here, seras" He knelt down, his face was not far from hers
"Good night seras" seras blinked
"...what about..."
"That can wait another night" he spoke cutting off her words, seras felt her eye lids become heavy
"..Ok then..." Alucard grinned at the sleepy seras and placed his index finger in the centre of her forehead, seras soon fell fast asleep.
Back to normal
Seras opened her eyes to find that she was alone in the lounge, the fire light had become dim and her tea was cold
"Did...I fall asleep?" seras glanced up at a grandfather clock
"What...it's half past seven, there is no way I could have been asleep for that long!" seras shook her head and stood
"Ah Miss Victoria you are awake" Seras looked down to find Walter followed by a rolling tray
"You had fallen asleep so we thought it best to let you go" Seras nodded
"But for so long?"
"I think you must have been up late last night" he spoke his china body shone in the fire light
"Well actually I was up quite late" she spoke rubbing her forehead with the back of her hand
"I brought you some more tea and if you are feeling hungry just ring this bell" seras looked at the rolling tray which carried the tea there was a small silver bell next to a cup and saucer.
"Ok then, thank you Walter...oh and did Alucard still want to see me this evening?"
"Yes he did" the vampire spoke emerging from a corner in the room making seras jump
"Oh hello Alucard" The vampire bowed
"Good evening seras" The ancient vampire waved his hand at Walter gesturing him to leave. Seras watched the teapot leave before turning to speak
"Alucard ...what happed last night?"
"I put you to sleep and carried you to your bed room" seras blushed
"Y...you did not have to" Alucard chuckled
"Did you have a nice day?"
"Yup me, Rip and Schrodinger went outside to have a snow ball fight" she spoke smiling
"You went outside in the snow?"
"Yes...why are you looking at me like that?" Alucard's mocking laughter filled the room
"A snowball fight? Seras what is your age?" seras frowned
"Humph, you can have a snowball fight at any age" Alucard slumped into his large red chair and removed his hat and glasses reviling his wild jet black hair and fiery red eyes. Seras sat on the floor the scene was just the same from last night, seras sighed
"Last night you were very kind not to get angry at me for not telling you about my parents, but I wanted to know why you asked?"
"as you said last night you are going to be spending the rest of your life here so I wanted to know a little more about you" seras looked at her hands were the scars still remained from her blood stained past.
"My father had been working with this man on our farm and one day he saw him steal a lot of money and hide it in a barn , my father said he would not tell anyone but when he got blamed for it he had to tell the truth, the mad was supposed to be hanged but he escaped and came to our home, I was ten years old when it happened, my mother told me to hide while the man started to yell at my farther , he killed him and my mother and when I tried to stop him he almost killed me, I blacked out and woke up at an orphanage which was run my nuns, after what had happened I had a hard time fitting in with the other children so mother clag sent for papa to come and take me away to live with him" Alucard kept his eyes to her face as he took in all of the information,
"And the scars on your wrist?" seras turned her head away from the fire, she did not want him to see her tears
"...the man stabbed me and...Then he made me cut my own wrists before I blacked out" Alucard came closer to the human girl, she slowly inched away but he pulled her back next to him, he gave her a red handkerchief she slowly took it and wiped her tears away.
"It happened and there is nothing you can do to change that, the only thing left to do is to carry on and to never give in" seras sniffed and looked at the vampire who was now sitting next to her
"Thank you" she said her voice a mere whisper, seras gently leaned on his arm making him grin
"So then, did you enjoy your snow ball fight?"
"Yes it was fun, I want to do it again tomorrow" Alucard chuckled
"I think I will join you"
"But, the sun?"
"I can still walk around in the day and the sun won't shine tomorrow, but waking up in the day is exhausting"
"So why do it?" The vampire gave her a devious smile
"because I wish to make you happy" seras laughed
"My, my what happed to the beastly vampire I used to know?"
"You have scared him off" seras laughed again
"Fine then But I warn you, I always win at snowball fights"
"Humm is that a bet?"
"Absolutely"
"Very well then, what happens if you win?" seras put a finger to her lip and hummed
"Let's think...If I win...you have to ...tell me a story, but what do you want if you win?"
"You must spend every night in here reading for me" seras felt her back ache from last night
"Deal!, prepare your voice vampire because I refuse to lose" Alucard ruffled her hair
"We shall see"
Humm Alucard against seras in a snowball fight...who do you think is gonna win ¬¬
Hope you like it!

Seras: me...against master!
Alucard: this should be fun (evil grin)
