GM – True Blood
"You are so adorable." Pam gave Christine a teasing smile, with that hint of fang, and Christine couldn't help but blush. "Keep blushing like that, you smell delicious." The teasing just made Christine blush harder and Pam chuckled.
"So," Christine desperately searched for a different topic, because the teasing was getting to be too much. Sure she didn't catch on that Pam was a vampire, but Pam was acting very vampire right now, as if to make up for lost time, "were you thinking about being my consultant for my books?"
The soft teasing moan was making Christine's heart hammer a little at the sexuality of it. "You want your human character to seduce a vampire. I think I can teach you how to do that." And Christine's struggle to stop blushing was lost yet again. "Yes, that's a very good start there." Pam smirked at her blush. Before Christine was forced to ask Pam to stop teasing so much Pam sat a little straighter in her chair. "But seriously, I believe I fit all the criteria you were looking for. However, you should know that if I do help you, I may have to ask for you to remove some things from the story if they have the possibility of getting me into trouble. If your story starts a political nightmare, I can't be associated with it."
Censorship, Christine's mind screamed, clearly unhappy, but Voice spoke with a cool practicality, "They could kill her for it. She's trusting you to listen, because if you don't it could mean her life. You don't even know what she'd want out, or even if it would be a problem. She's asking if she can trust you." Christine paled at that, and suddenly her artistic outrage seemed unimportant. She'd rather bury a book than have it hurt anyone.
"Okay." She spoke softly and watched the slightly puzzled frown on Pam's face. Christine wondered how odd she'd looked when Voice spoke to her. "That makes sense. I don't want to cause trouble for anyone. I just want to finish this and see if it can still sell. It's hard to cut from a story, so just promise me you won't ask lightly. If you think something will cause real trouble, it's gone, but if you just don't like it let me know the difference."
"Okay," Pam nodded. Bread arriving at the table ended that line of discussion, as Pam took another sip of blood at the table that Christine was trying to eat at. Christine wondered if other people would be bothered in this situation.
The conversation, naturally, turned to being a vampire when it was still a secret. "It was both a better and a worse time." Pam explained. "The challenges have changed, and so have the rewards." Pam sighed and Christine found herself enthralled by the conversation. It took a lot to not ask a question in what was clearly a thoughtful pause. "The main challenge was to make sure no one suspected we existed. We had to be careful what we did publically, and we had to move often, but the rewards," Pam smirked with a fond smile and seemed to be remembering something, "the rewards made it easy to move."
Voice added to the conversation. "Blood would have been plentiful, and better quality than the druggies that offer themselves now or the bottled they get at the store. That is probably something you need to keep out of the books."
"But now," It was a coincidence, Christine was sure, but Voice had just inserted the part of the story that Pam clearly left out as if knowing that part wouldn't be offered. "We can openly establish ourselves in a community, but we have to be wary of humans that fancy themselves vampire hunters, like the Fellowship, or odder still, humans that seek to prey on our blood."
"That would be pretty stupid." Christine muttered, thinking of those after vampire blood, as if it were a drug. There were safer drugs out there for people eager to destroy themselves, and those drugs didn't come from people with more strength and power than any human could have, who would kill you for taking it.
"Yes, it is rather stupid." Pam gave her a small smirk. "But enough about me, tell me something about you."
None of what Pam said was really about her, Christine thought. It was about vampires in general. "Dinner is served." The waiters voice startled Christine back into remembering where she was, and that she hadn't really had more than bread and salad yet. She sat back just a little as he set her plate down for her. It did look delicious.
"She gets points for thinking that her story might upset your appetite." Voice sounded amused. "She doesn't know that I've explained the levels of decomposition to you while you eat lunch so you can get back to writing about the body starting off the next chapter." Christine smirked and looked down at her meal to hide her amusement at Voice. That one time wasn't as detailed as Voice was pretending it was. Once Christine knew she could trust Voice as a consultant herself, research was done in that manner. Christine was able to write much faster with an internal Voice that seemed to know so much about so many different things.
They talked a little about what it was like for Christine, growing up in Washington state, and how she managed to break into writing despite her refusal to only write heterosexual stories. Christine would have been paid more, and more well known, if she'd sold out, but she wasn't going to do that. Christine felt boring, but Pam laughed at some of her comments and it helped.
The most interesting thing about Christine was the one thing she couldn't share yet. Christine watched as Pam was given a second glass, and while the woman's attention wasn't on her, Christine thought at Voice. 'We will be able to tell her someday right?'
'I'd like to meet her too, so yes. I believe she'd understand better than most would.' Voice spoke softly and Christine felt a little surprised at that, until she considered the fact that Voice was going to be there if Christine did anything with Pam, and it wouldn't be right to get too far with the vampire without telling her there were two people living in this one body. The fact that Pam was a bit supernatural herself was a positive there, because perhaps she'd believe Christine, where a human woman might not.
'You have a way to talk to her?' Christine was a bit surprised, and the amusement she felt from Voice was strangely laced with regret.
'There is a way.' Was all Voice gave her and then Pam was smiling at Christine and Christine had to abandon that conversation for later.
"We still haven't talked about compensation." Pam teased as they started their walk to the minivan after dinner. "I know you were willing to pay money, but really, I am co-owner of that nightclub I work at, money is not an issue."
Christine's eyes widened a little, once again wondering why a vampire, and apparently an owner, had to man the door. That was the big reason Christine had assumed Pam wasn't a vampire, she had the shitty job. "Well, I hadn't really thought beyond a standard offer." She stopped walking right beside the passenger side of the van.
"I might be willing to work for blood." Pam spoke with a sexy whisper and leaned forward, pressing Christine's back into the van. The sensual way Pam looked at her made blood sound like a good idea, but Christine gritted her teeth and shook her head no.
"I don't even donate blood. My immune system gets weak when I do and I keep getting sick with anything people have around me." That sounded reasonable, she thought, as she fought the odd shaking in her body when she felt Pam's breath on her neck. It was the premeditated excuse she'd dreamt up on her way to Louisiana, as she thought perhaps a vampire might suggest this. She hadn't expected to be attracted to the vampire in question though.
"That is such a shame sweety. You need more vitamins in your diet." Pam offered and pulled back slowly. "I'll buy you some. The waitresses at the club are on something that seems to work."
"I wouldn't let her bite us without a careful test run first. We are unique, and for all we know that could be dangerous to her." Voice interrupted Pam's seductive stare and Christine moved to look over the vampire's shoulder as she considered that, because Pam's eyes were way too distracting. Voice seemed to think Christine might be tempted at some point to try it, and Christine knew it was just Pam's sensuality, her pure sexuality, that even made that a consideration for a second. It wasn't something she'd ever really wanted.
"That is disappointing." Pam almost seemed to nuzzle Christine's neck and that was nothing really, so Christine didn't understand why it was the most seductive thing she'd ever experienced. Her heart pounded hard and her breath caught in her throat, even as a lower part of her anatomy seemed to clench and spasm with need. "But we can renegotiate later." Pam's hand moved around Christine's body and the click of the van door opening had Christine moving to the side as Pam held the door open for her. Pam's knowing smile as she did that had Christine blushing.
"Oh she has us alright." Voice muttered and Christine was a little surprised at the words. "No blood without testing first, no matter how much you want it, because I can see she'll make us want it."
"Oh sweety, you are so tempting." Pam muttered under her breath after slipping into the driver's seat. They pulled out of the parking lot in silence, and Christine used that time to calm herself. Pam's voice was quiet. "Does it bother you when I tease you?"
"Not really." Christine admitted, and admitting that was a bit hard. Pam teased to flirt, and it was always intriguing and flustering. No one had ever gotten to Christine like Pam did.
"Good." Pam's smile was wicked and sexy, and Christine found herself watching the woman's profile as Pam drove her back home.
"I have some True Blood, and I need to get you my manuscript anyhow." Christine struggled with the offer, not wanting Pam to leave, but knowing that it was too soon for what she wanted to do. Her reservations about having any type of sex with Voice in her head amazingly faded when the very real prospect was in front of her, but she really shouldn't tonight. "Why don't you come in for a little while?" She hoped the 'little while' would make it clear they weren't having sex tonight.
"She is going to think its sex, or at least some making out." Voice informed her while Christine watched the naughty grin growing on Pam's face. Christine didn't need to be told.
As soon as Christine closed the front door of the house, following Pam in, Pam was on her, pushing her up against the door. Lips descended on her own and Christine moaned into the demanding contact. Vampires were apparently very forward, part of Christine's distracted mind filled in even as she felt her legs weakening.
The surge of strength she used to push Pam back, was a shock to her, because she was pretty sure she didn't want to stop her. "Not all the way, not tonight." Christine managed, but the kisses running over her throat had her hands clenching into Pam's clothes, holding her tight. "don't bite."
"Aw, sweety, why did you have to pull out the first date rule now?" Pam seemed to pout, but then her lips captured Christine's again.
"Oh God." Christine muttered when her lips were free again, and struggled with the fact that she didn't remember them moving into the room, even as Pam pushed her down to sit on the couch, and then straddled her. She finally remembered what Pam had said. "Because I want more than a one night stand with you."
"You are adorable." Pam smiled and leaned forward, pushing her body into Christine's as she leaned in for another kiss.
Christine didn't consciously even try to do it, but she grabbed Pam's hair and tugged her closer, kissing her more passionately. "Her neck" Voice told her, and even Voice sounded a little breathless. Hearing a voice now should have shaken some of the desire out of her, but Christine leaned in and nibbled lightly on Pam's neck, only to find the vampire's body tense and to hear Pam gasp. Voice gave good advice, Christine thought with a smirk into Pam's neck, before kissing that neck and then biting down just a bit harder.
"No fair, you bite and I can't." Pam moaned and it was like fire in Christine's blood to hear it.
"I'm not drawing blood." Christine managed to say, even as she felt fangs touch her lips, as Pam pulled her into another kiss. Pam's fangs felt long, and Christine found herself gentling the kiss to avoid damage to either of them.
"She can't control that when she's aroused." Voice told her as Christine found herself missing the abandon of their previous kisses because the fangs were too sharp to not be careful. Voice's words made the fact that Christine had made Pam lose a little control enter her mind and it was satisfying.
Pam slowed the kiss to the point they stopped. "If we won't go further, I can't keep this up. Vampire passion is rather all consuming, and without blood or sex, I may well burn up." Pam gave a small smile.
"Okay." Christine rested her forehead on Pam's shoulder and nodded. She could understand that, but right now her hormones were racing so much it was hard to think. "Okay." She muttered again, and tried to force her hands to let go of Pam. "Oh god."
"You are delicious." Pam smiled so wickedly at her. "We will do this again."
Pam eased off of her and Christine found the pale hand held out to her had no problem whatsoever in pulling her to her own feet. Christine barely felt like she'd helped at all. "I guess I should get my manuscript for you." It felt a little awkward to stop.
Pam kissed her gently. "Yes, I should go soon, before we get too carried away." Christine just nodded and went to grab the package for Pam to take with her.
Pam smiled and Christine watched her flipping through the manuscript quickly. "I expect I can read your manuscript in two days, and then be ready to start giving you advice, but I have to work that day. You could come in and we could take over the office for an hour." Pam glanced at her. "My next night off is Wednesday and I'd like that to be our date night, so if we can work at my club during my breaks we won't have to use my days off."
"Just keep it out of other hands." Was all she added.
Christine stood in her doorway, leaning on the door as Pam made her way to the van to leave. "I guess we're going to be hanging out in bars for a while. Make sure I don't develop any new addictions." Christine muttered to Voice as Pam got into the van parked on the street. Pam glanced over at her and gave her an odd look, before waving goodbye and putting the vehicle in drive.
"She probably heard that." Voice informed her. "Maybe we should bring up our little secret on the next date, because too many slips like that and we will look crazy." Voice was teasing even as Christine blushed. "Not to mention I don't think she'll want to wait too long for sex, and she may be very accepting, but it has to be rude to slip a threesome in without telling someone."
"God, you can be worse than she is. She is a bad influence on you." Christine sputtered out in embarrassment. She'd never even considered what they were doing or hoping to do to be a threesome. That just made her feel even more self conscious. She could feel Voice's amusement.
"I'm sorry. I'm just so happy it worked." Voice apologized, and Christine felt the sincerity. "It's been a bit too long since either of us has been with anyone, and she's someone we both definitely agree on. Kissing her was really nice."
"Yes it was." Christine spoke quietly, finally closing the front door as the minivan turned off the street and was out of sight. She smiled softly as she thought about what she'd done with Pam on that couch. "It definitely was."
