Last Time…

Black Hat relinquished his hold on the man in front of him as he redressed himself. After checking to make sure there was no evidence of their encounter, he stepped back to let Isaac leave. The man was still blushing beautifully as he left.

"See you tomorrow Isaac." Black Hat said with a laugh, catching the shy smile that Isaac shot over his shoulder at him.

Oh yea. He would keep Isaac alive if he got more of that. He could get used to this. He picked up his discarded hat and chuckled as he flopped down on his mattress with his hands behind his head. He pushed the hat down low on his brow and closed his eyes, ready for a nap.

o-o-o-o-o

Priest woke with a smile on his face, stretching. His encounter with Ezekiel the day before had been nothing short of shocking, and he had panicked the moment he had gotten home, working himself into a frenzy and then falling asleep, but now he was awake, and he felt fantastic.

As he got dressed, he refused to allow himself to entertain the idea that he was being used. Ezekiel wouldn't use him.

He paused.

Although it was true, Ezekiel wouldn't use him… the infamous Black Hat would. Not that it mattered… they were one in the same person, and as much as Priest wanted to change that, he couldn't. With a sigh, he put his hood up and left the apartment.

o-o-o-o-o

Black Hat was on his back on his mattress, orchestrating a symphony in his head, moving his hands fluidly to the notes floating through his mind. His eyes were closed as he lost himself in the music. His hat lay by his side.

He didn't hear the locks turn. He didn't hear door open and close. He didn't hear the footsteps approach his bedside. He did however smell a familiar bitter earthy scent and smiled. Still he said nothing, continuing the song until it ended gloriously in a rage of cymbal crashes and trumpet blows. He smiled a toothless smile as he let his hands drift back down to rest beside his head on the mattress.

"A bit rude to walk into someone's room unannounced dontcha think…" He said, opening his eyes slowly and setting them on a smiling Isaac. The man shrugged and sat down on the ground, sitting Indian style.

"I thought it ruder to interrupt you." Isaac said softly. Black Hat sat up, supporting his weight on his hands behind him. He quietly observed the man sitting adjacent from him for a moment before cocking his head slightly with a smirk.

"You're in a good mood today." He chuckled, not bothering to keep the humor out of his voice because he knew why. Isaac lifted an eyebrow.

"What makes you say that?"

"You haven't stopped smilin' since you got here." Black Hat watched amused as Isaac turned that lovely shade of rose, a color that was quickly becoming the vampire's favorite, and looked down at his hands in his lap.

Priest could feel his face heating up as the vampire teased him. He hadn't even realized that he was smiling. It felt natural around the vampire as of late… he looked up to see Ezekiel still leering at him knowingly.

"How's that bruise on your hip?" Ezekiel said. His smile faded when Priest lifted his shirt and pulled the edge of his pants down slightly. The bruise was an angry shade of purple with blue around the edges. The shape of Ezekiel's fingers was easily discernable.

"Shit…" The curse came out slow and deep. Black Hat's eyes flashed a vivid yellow, his gaze fixed on Isaac's hip. He did that. He had hurt Isaac. Why he cared, he didn't know… but he hadn't really meant to hurt him. He was just playing with him. He had forgotten that Isaac was much more fragile than he was.

"It doesn't hurt." He heard Isaac say softly as he reached out slowly, brushing his fingers over the bruise.

Priest watched the vampire. He was acting so strange. He almost seemed angry that he had hurt him. But wasn't he the one who had insisted that he hated him? He frowned slightly and grasped Ezekiel's fingers gently, meeting the intense gaze that was shot at him.

The two men stared at each other for what seemed like forever before Priest leaned forward, kissing Black Hat tenderly. The reclining vampire leaned up into the kiss, slipping his hand out of Priest's and gripping the back of the man's neck gently. The kiss was simple but full of hidden meaning.

Priest pulled away first, but didn't move, staying inches from Ezekiel's face. He stared into the golden depths of his eyes, getting lost temporarily. The vampire was so hard to read sometimes that he wondered whether he was capable of shielding his emotions.

Black Hat stared at Isaac, counting the shades of blue he found in his eyes. He felt the words leaving his mouth before he could stop them.

"I'm sorry."

Did he really just say that? He apologized. What the hell. He wasn't supposed to feel bad about it. He didn't care about Isaac… at least that's what he thought until he saw those hard icy eyes melt, becoming blue pools of warmth.

"Don't be. You didn't mean to hurt me." Priest said. He tried his best to hide his hopeful tone, but he was sure Ezekiel had heard it, judging by the way he frowned slightly.

"No… no I didn't." Black Hat replied. He sat up fully, regaining his height advantage. He ran his hand gently over Isaac's cheek, feeling the soft skin beneath his calloused fingertips. He cupped his cheek, almost smiling when Isaac closed his eyes and leaned into the touch.

Priest opened his eyes and smiled at the vampire, who in turn smiled back at him and rubbed his cheek with his thumb.

Neither man understood where their relationship stood at that moment, or what they truly felt for each other, nor did they honestly care. Although they couldn't hear what the other was thinking, they both knew they were willing to sit back and enjoy the ride, and that was just what they were going to do.

A/N: A little more fluff in this one. I blame my song choice. Seriously though I want you guys to go look that song up. Cazzi is a talented woman.

Review please! You guys keep putting me on alert but no one is reviewing. D: Makes me sad.

Maybe I'll keep the next chapter hostage unless you review. O.e
