WHY IS IT THAT WHEN I'M ALMOST DONE WITH SOMETHING I LOSE INSPIRATION?!!? ARGH!!! Anyway, I hope you enjoy this installment of VAMP (for those of you who read LOL)

Chapter 5: He bites you not

Kurenai and Konan had no idea what was so funny about Kisame kissing all three of them, but Hidan found it funny and he refused to explain why.

The next day Hidan found that he was repelled by the smell of everyone else's blood, the only blood interesting to him being Konan's. But he was so adamant about biting her, so against it because it would prove that he was in love with her. He honestly didn't want to be in love with her.

"Why not?" Kisame demanded while music blared from the T.V. - 'Whatever you like' by T.I. - and Hidan sighed before saying, "I don't want to be in love with her because... because..."

"Because of Pein? You don't have any reason to be afraid of him."

"That's not why, Kisame, it's just... I don't know. Itachi always freaks out when Deidara's gone for longer than he says I just... I just don't want it to be like that. I don't want to be worrying and fretting over her every damn second because she can take care of herself."

"So sleep over at her place," Kisame suggested, "that's what I did with Sakura. She liked it. And she asks me to come stay with her sometimes, because she gets scared or she just wants the company. Or she's upset. Oh don't give me that face," he ordered when Hidan looked like he was going to start whining, "I totally support you falling in love with Konan. And that's that. If you don't bite her though... I don't even want to think about what might happen to you."

--

A week later found Konan prancing around Hidan's room, in no mood to do her work. She was just intent on getting him to bite her.

"Oh come on, Hidan, you need blood. I can see it in your eyes," she stretched out her neck to him, watching in satisfaction as he clenched his jaw and averted his eyes.

"Do I really smell that good?" she asked, pushing away from his desk, forgetting about her math, focused only on his bright red eyes. She pressed her body against him and he inched away from her, and finally raised a hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, narrowing his eyes at her. Before he could speak, however, Konan moved back to the desk and said, "you won't be able to teach me anything if you're gonna' be so close to my neck. Either you bite me or I sit here and wait for you to come back from a short hunt," she turned her amber eyes to him, "take your pick."

Hidan whined, "I can't bite you, Konan. Seriously."

"Why not?" she demanded, absentmindedly opening various drawers to his desk. While he attempted to explain to her the reasons he couldn't, she spotted a pack of blood cigarettes in one of the drawers. She smiled and withdrew it, and instantly Hidan's voice stopped. She turned to face him and leaned against the desk, opening the pack, staring at him. His eyes were wide and his arms were making some kind of gesture. Slowly he lowered his arms and took a step toward her, his voice full of warning as he said, "Konan..."

"This will only hurt me if I let any of it into my body right? And besides, Hidan, you're a healer. If anything really bad happens, you can heal me," she reminded him, pulling one out. His eyes narrowed dangerously and took another step closer, his voice now holding a hint of anger, "Konan..."

She put the cigarette against her lips, and he froze, his eyes on the red stick. She smiled a little, "it'll melt if I put it in my mouth, won't it? I mean, Kisame told me it would after I bugged him half to death about it..."

Hidan was in front of her suddenly, and having no other option she popped the cigarette in her mouth. It began to dissolve, and to her surprise instead of tasting blood - like she had expected - she tasted mint. Flavored blood. Very interesting.

Hidan's eyes were very wide as he stared down at her, trying to comprehend that she'd just shoved the cigarette in her mouth. She moved closer to him and in response he stepped back. She stepped forward again and he retreated until she had chased him to the bed, which he sat down on. Now he stared up at her, and the cigarette was filling her mouth with blood. So instead of talking Konan gripped Hidan's shoulders and pressed her mouth to his. He was utterly shocked, and when she opened her mouth he almost lost himself.

Blood trickled down his chin, and its intoxicating smell filled his nostrils. His mouth opened and the blood flowed in. He drank it almost feverishly, and he grabbed Konan's hips, pulling her down onto his lap. His left hand made its way to the back of her head, and he pressed her mouth hard against his, so hard that the contact was bruising. His tongue roamed the expanse of Konan's mouth and she moaned, one of her hands rubbing against his thigh. Even though she knew he was just getting all of the delicious blood out of her mouth, Konan couldn't help but love how aggressive he was being. She grabbed the hand that was on her hip and placed it on her thigh. His fingers twitched and he angled her head a little more, trying to gain better access. Konan moaned again and gasped a little as his hand slipped under her skirt. She pressed against him and he fell back, refusing to break away from her. She took quick breaths through her nose and when he finally relented she breathed deeply, even gasping a little.

Konan suddenly found herself under him, his eyes - now a mix of violet and red - glaring accusingly down at her. She wasn't about to let him speak though so she thrust a hand into his hair and brought his mouth back down to hers, this time pushing her tongue past his lips. He had a sweet minty taste, and she loved it. He stiffened - much to her dismay - and broke off from her, getting up quickly. He walked away from the bed to the desk, and Konan turned her head to look at him after making a frustrated sound. She blinked.

He had wrapped his hand around the pack of cigarettes, and in turn this had effectively crushed it. She bit her lip, scared now, 'I - I made him angry?'

The silence hung heavy in the air for a long time, and Konan finally had enough of it. She got off the bed, trembling a little, and approached him cautiously. She reached out to touch his back, looked at the destroyed package, and thought better of it.

"Hidan -"

He whirled around and grabbed her chin roughly in his hand, jerking her head up a little.

"Never, ever do that again," he growled in a low voice. Konan's lips trembled and she nodded her head, eying the line of blood down his chin. He jerked his hand away to the right and her head turned with it. To her, it seemed like he was slapping her without really hurting her. He turned his back to her and began to walk away, tossing the package into the garbage can as he passed by it. He stopped near the couch and spoke, "go home."

She stared at him in shock, clasping her hands together in front of her chest, "Hidan I -"

"Go home, Konan," he half-yelled glaring at her over his shoulder with a snarl on his face. She gasped a little and looked away, trembling, tears filling her eyes. She grabbed her books and dashed out of the room, refraining from sobbing until she was at the bottom of the stairs. The door opened and she flew by Kisame who released a shocked, "eh?!"

She didn't even think to stop, the only thought occupying her mind being, 'I made him angry.'

"Konan?" she heard Kisame call after her. She could imagine his expression, how hopelessly confused or worried he must be. She felt hands on her shoulders and she came to a stop. She turned and buried her face in Kisame's chest, wailing, "I made him angry!"

Kisame's expression softened and he hugged her lightly before reaching into his pocket and taking out his car keys. He pushed them into the hand that wasn't holding anything, "here. Go wait in the car."

He made sure she was in the car before he proceeded into the house.

--

When Kisame entered Hidan's room, the first thing he noticed was the crushed packet of cigarettes in the garbage can, and the new one out on the desk, open. He furrowed his brows and looked to his right to see Hidan sitting on the bed, leaning against the window, a hand over his eyes. The cigarette was being held loosely between his fingers.

"What happened?" Kisame asked after a moment of silence. Hidan moved his hand slightly, revealing one gleaming eye. Kisame's eyebrows narrowed backwards, and Hidan covered his eyes again. Kisame approached him, then yanked his hand down and stared into Hidan's eyes.

He saw it all then, in reverse: Hidan yelling at her, them on the bed, the blood-filled kiss, the fear that she'd kill herself, the bitter anger. He jerked back a bit in surprise and Hidan took a drag on the cigarette, blowing smoke out of his nostrils. Kisame walked away, "I see. I'll take her home, then."

As he was walking out of the room he heard Hidan say, "she left her flower," and Kisame walked back over to the desk to retrieve it. Then he was in the car, putting the flower back in her hair.

"That was a pretty stupid thing you did, Konan," he commented, starting the vehicle. She sniffled and said nothing, looking out the window instead.

--

Once they arrived at Konan's house she bolted out of the car before Kisame could say anything. He sighed and turned off the engine, getting out to follow her. As he walked in he heard Anko cry, "Konan?!"

"It's no use. I'll tell you what happened," he interjected, causing Anko to stop mid-way up the stairs and swing around to stare down at him. He lit a cigarette and walked toward the confused mother.

"She... well, she freaked him out. She put a blood cigarette in her mouth, see, and well... he didn't take that too well. And she kissed him," he blew smoke out of his mouth, "twice. He wasn't too pleased, I'm tellin' ya," Kisame shook his head.

Anko appeared shocked, "w-what? She... she kissed him? Twice?"

"Once to get all the blood out of her mouth and second to make sure he wouldn't start talking. He got infuriated; opposite of what she wanted, I think. But," he held up a finger, a stern expression on his face, "don't lecture her about it, please. We're complicated beings, us Vampires. You can tell her though, that if she does swallow a whole blood cigarette, she'll die, no matter how good a healer Hidan is. There's some things even Vampires can't heal, and one of them is blood ingestion."

With that, Kisame turned and left, Anko running up the stairs to comfort her distraught daughter.

--

Hidan wasn't being very... kind. He was a lot stiffer around Konan now, more harsh and less patient when it came to tutoring. Konan recalled what Kisame had said to her about Hidan's odd behavior, "you scared the living daylights out of him when you did that Konan. You may not have known it, but that was the closest to death you'll probably ever get."

She realized, even as Hidan snarled at her about something he had repeated for the umpteenth time - she really didn't blame him for snarling - that she'd not only made him angry, but she'd also frightened him.

Now Konan sat next to the couch in his room, beyond irritated with how cold Hidan was being toward her. Not only that, but he hadn't bitten anybody and it had already been a month. His cigarettes were almost gone, and he wasn't going to get more. She contemplating a few things: he was distancing himself, trying to make her be cold toward him, trying and failing to push her away. Konan really wanted to know why he wasn't biting anyone else, why he wouldn't bite her.

The almost empty packet of cigarettes was in front of her, and she held one up, 'if I put it in my mouth I'll just make him mad again. But he can't get too angry at me for just lighting it and setting it on the ground, can he?'

She lit it and placed it on the floor without a second thought. As the smoke reached her nose she breathed it in and coughed lightly. Disgusted now, she scooted back a little, picking up her Math textbook and absentmindedly reading it. She heard quick foot steps and knew that Hidan had smelt the smoke.

"What are you doing?" he demanded and when she looked up at him he was glaring at her, his hand gripping the steel door tightly. She tossed her head a little and looked down at the textbook again. There was the sound of metal being crushed and she cringed when Hidan released a low growl, breaking off a part of the door. She glanced at him out of the corner of her eye and saw him stare furiously at the piece of metal before whipping it violently at the wall. She shivered and quickly looked back at the book when he started walking toward her.

"It's just smoke. It isn't gonna' kill me," she informed him, lifting the textbook higher so that she couldn't see him. He stepped on the cigarette and growled, "too much of it will, seriously."

She glared up at him, "oh? I was under the impression that you didn't care anymore," and her eyes returned to the book. Her hands had to keep her from falling onto her back when he tore the textbook out of her grasp and flung it all the way across the room. It hit the wall with a loud thunk and dropped onto the bed. He was glaring at her, challenging her with those ruby colored eyes. She glared right back and finally blurted out, "why won't you just bite me?!"

His eyes narrowed and he stood abruptly, walking some distance from her before her voice caused him to stop walking, "why won't you? You need blood, Hidan," she grabbed the packet of cigarettes and threw one at him, "these are more effective if you don't have fangs! You still have yours!"

He stayed silent and she continued, "if you won't bite me why not anybody else, huh?! You have to feed. You have to bite me if you won't bite anybody else!"

She wondered why he wouldn't bite anybody else and a small voice in the back of her head said, 'devotion,' but she ignored it. She took all the cigarettes out of the packet and stomped toward him while throwing them at him. He turned around when the last one bounced off his back and she assaulted his chest with her fists. Her pulse was pounding in her neck from all her pent up anger, "stupid, stupid, stupid, Hidan! You need to bite me, damn it! You're killing yourself you stupid -!"

Her mouth hung open and her eyes were wide, a gasp escaping her throat. There was a piercing pain at her neck, and she realized that Hidan was finally biting her. She couldn't believe how amazing it felt, to be bitten. She stumbled back, falling onto the couch with Hidan following her.

His body pinned her down, and she could feel blood rushing to her face. Her breaths were coming out in short gasps as her blood was sucked out of her neck. She pressed a hand to the back of his head, felt his throat vibrate when he growled, and whined a little when he shifted his weight.

'If – if this is what it feels like t-to be b-bitten... Oh, gawds, I want him to bite me everyday...' from her lips escaped a soft, "ah..."

After five minutes he pulled away, licking her pierced neck to heal it. Perfectly bright and shimmering violet eyes pierced through hers until her lids slid closed as she fainted.

--

Hidan stared at her, watching her faint and immediately fled to the other side of the room. He pressed his forehead against the wall before releasing a shriek of anger. He'd never wanted to bite her because it honestly mean that yes, Kisame was right and that yes, Hidan was falling in love with her. It left him infuriated and angry and he screamed again, falling to the ground and slamming his fists against the floor, like a three year old throwing a temper tantrum.

'That wasn't supposed to happen. That wasn't supposed to fucking happen! Damn it! Why me...?... Why!?' he clenched his teeth and curled his fingers, raising his hands beside his head, "... GAH!"

He glanced over at her, 'if only she hadn't made her pulse quicken. If only it hadn't been pounded in her neck and my ears if only...' he licked his lips, 'if only she didn't taste so damn good.'

He took a few moments to calm down before striding back over to Konan and plopping down on the couch. He stared at her, "when are you going to wake up?"

He leaned closer, lips touching her chin, "more importantly, how the hell are you going to react?"

As if answering him, her eyes cracked open and her amber eyes burned into his.
