It annoyed me, he annoyed me, but there was nothing I could do, that's what you get when you work for the Sheriff of Area 5. As I was sipping my Trueblood by the bar a human man couldn't keep his eyes off me. His eyes ran over my thigh long black lacey dress and small black heels, my long dark brown hair had fallen out of its plait and had fallen over my shoulders in a wavy way, my greyish blue eyes were focused on the wall above a dancer. This human wore black shorts and a button up white shirt, he looked to be about twenty two, a lonely twenty two year old with tall blond hair and baby blue eyes. I sighed and unfortunately for me The Sheriff came over. The human bowed and then returned to his drink.
"Anastasia my dear why the bored look?" he questioned.
Eric had gone with the casual wear tonight, dark jeans and a singlet with a leather jacket. His usual hair was back like a lion's mane. "Because I am Eric."
"For a four hundred year old vampire your not very out there are you?"
"You and I both know why." I stated giving him a sharp look.
As apart of his deal, I was able to stay as long as I wanted, I just couldn't be myself. I frighten some vampires, enough said don't ya think?
He smiled easily. "Well at least you follow that rule my dear, now why not have some fun tonight?"
I looked up at him, sadly I was a little on the short side, coming up to his shoulders, just. "Like what fun?" I asked taking the last sip of my O positive and setting it down on the bar.
When I looked back at him his eyes were shinning. "I have a job for you."
"Oh Yay." I shook my hands up in a sarcastic way.
He chuckled. " Since Pam is away on a small vacation, I need someone to be my wing women per say."
I rolled my eyes at him. "You're kidding right?"
"No, and it'll give you a taste of a higher life."
"Higher?" I snarled back at him.
His smile faded. "Anna, I only wish you had taken what I had said seriously."
He was referring to having me join his little group which included vampires, Were's and a telepath. "And I only wish I didn't come, but we all regret something's or wish otherwise." I said lightly.
He growled and stepped forward until we were basically pressed up against each other. "Just do as I say, because I am the only one keeping you here, anyone else wants you gone." He whispered in a cold tone.
"I don't want to be kept." I whispered back just as coldly.
He tilted his head slightly and our eyes locked. He leant in a little so our lips just brushed, I didn't pull away and he didn't move.
"Are you in?" he asked, his lips brushing mine a little more.
"Only if you back off." I said.
He leaned back and smiled. "Welcome, first things first though, I need you to help me with something."
"Oh and what would that be?" I asked.
"You'll see before dawn." He teased and wandered off.
