I love all of you, my faithful readers! You inspire me! I saw Fright Night again tonight in theatres and am full of new and exciting ideas! Please stay tuned!

"Flesh for Fantasy" is by Billy Idol and is found on his album "Rebel Yell". I don't own this song.

Lily remained in oblivion, unaware of her surroundings. She didn't know that Jerry and Jane rushed her to Jane's van. She didn't hear Jane's frantic call to Charley for help. All she felt was the numbing bliss that kept her from acknowledging her surroundings.

There's a change of pace...in fantasy and taste.

In her head, she kept recalling the one part of the night that would ever matter, even in the future. It felt like a dream, but even in her state, she remembered how everything felt...from his cold yet pleasurable embrace, to the swooning that hit her after their dance.

From the beginning, she recalled Jane pulling her and showing her who had just arrived after she decided to separate herself from Brad. She looked to the direction Jane was gestured at and saw Jerry standing at a distance. He was wearing another pair of his impossibly tight jeans, black biker boots and a black button up shirt that hugged his sculpted frame.

As she looked into his fathomless reddish brown orbs, even from the distance separating them, she felt drawn to him. He moved closer to her in a blinding speed that brought him to her in the mere blink of an eye.

Do you like good music? Do you like to dance?

Soon, they were joined as one...doing the most blatantly sexual dance she had ever done in her life. And did she want to stop? Even a pack of rabid wolves couldn't tear her away from this enigmatic man.

They were moulded together like pieces of a puzzle...like a hand inside a glove...ultimately revealing Jerry becoming the Yin to her Yang. His body was oh-so-cold but given the heavy heat pulsing in the club, it was a refreshing feeling.

Hanging out at a body shop at night. Ain't it strange what we do to feel alright...oh yeah..

His hands traveled everywhere, from the nape of her neck...to the valley in between her breasts. One traveled even lower to cup her intimately between her thighs, giving him leverage to press further into her rear end with his never-ending arousal. In slow, deliberate maddening motions, he ground himself into her...claiming her as his own.

Face to face...and back to back. You see and feel my sex attack.

She then recalled his lips on her neck and the brief pain that followed. But, soon...much too soon...the dream faded away and her subconscious was flying her to another plane of existence.

"No" her mind screamed "Beautiful man, take me away...beautiful man...claim me"

Flesh...Flesh for Fantasy...We want it...Flesh...Flesh for Fantasy

She was met with swirling darkness as she ascended from oblivion.

"Beautiful man...claim me" she heard her inner voice plead "Take me away, beautiful man"

She was then aware of voices around her.

It's after midnight, are you feeling alright?

"Oh shit" she heard Charley exclaim "I think she just said something"

"What?" she heard Jane say from what seemed like another room.

"Beautiful man...Jerry...claim me" her inner voice screamed.

Turn out the light, babe...are you someone else tonight? Oh yeah

"Whoa is she talking about Jerry?" she heard Charley ask his mother "She's calling for him?"

Suddenly, Lily's eyes flew open and revealed her surroundings. Looking up at a slightly familiar ceiling, she realized she wasn't in her own home.

"Where am I?" she demanded weakly, pushing herself into a sitting position with arms that felt like liquid rubber.

"Oh thank God!" Jane exclaimed in relief "She's finally come to"

"Jane?" Lily said, licking dry lips as she assessed her situation "What happened? Why am I on your couch?"

"Someone put rufilin in your drink" Jane explained, handing her a glass of water "Drink this...you need to stay hydrated or you'll get really sick"

"Who put it in my drink?" Lily demanded weakly, gratefully taking the water and drinking it.

"It was Brad...Doris' cousin" Jane replied as Lily drank the water greedily.

"What?" Charley exclaimed, shocked "Someone put 'roofies' in Lily's drink?"

Ignoring Charley's question, Jane focused on Lily.

"That asshole" Lily exclaimed, handing the glass back to Jane "How could he do that?"

"Never mind that" Jane said soothingly, setting the glass on the coffee table before sitting next to her "If it weren't for Jerry helping us out, God-only-knows what could have happened"

Neighbour to neighbour...door to door...Don't ask questions...time for it all...Oh yeah

"Jerry helped?"

"Yes" Jane replied, brushing a wayward strand of hair off Lily's forehead gently "He carried you to my van while Doris chewed Brad out. He also told me to keep you hydrated"

Lily stayed silent, staring off into space. She then remembered something.

"Jane...did Jerry and I dance?" Lily asked reluctantly, a raging blush creeping up her cheeks

"I don't remember seeing you dance with Jerry" Jane replied, suddenly confused "When was this?"

Face to face and back to back...you see and feel, my sex attack.

"Well, if my memory serves well...it was before I blacked out"

"No, honey" Jane said, shaking her head "You didn't dance with him...but he was there in the distance...that's all I saw"

Lily sat in silence for several moments, scrunching her face in confusion. It had felt so real...no dream could make her feel the way she did in her subconscious.

'But if Jane didn't see it' her inner voice reasoned '...and she was right there in the middle of it...then it didn't happen'.

Flesh...Flesh for Fantasy...we cry...Flesh...Flesh for Fantasy.

"Then it must have been a dream"...

... Jerry sat in his living room chair, licking his lips. Even with the recent interference in his plans caused by his latest victim, he was still on track. Slowly, but surely, he was close to breaking Lily.

When he had helped Jane put Lily in the van, Jerry erased the memory of the dance from Jane's subconscious. He knew doing that would cause Lily to question her own sanity...further making her drop her guard.

Mother loves her son...Fathers, daughters too...it's an old world story...cries the new world too.

The taste of her blood was still on his lips and he felt an erotic tingle as it coursed through his entire body. It was a sweeter taste than he could ever imagine and he was immediately addicted to it.

He had bided his time...dallying with the stripper across the street and her two young children...it meant nothing to him since they were nothing but a snack to tide him over until he fully had Lily. In a way, he was fortunate because if he hadn't dallied, then he couldn't stop at just-a-taste.

Lily tasted of the ocean and Earth, sweet ambrosia filling his senses in ways he'd never imagined. It was like biting into a ripe fruit, the juices making his taste-buds sing in pleasure.

Flesh...Flesh...Flesh for Fantasy...we want it...Flesh...Flesh...Flesh for Fantasy.

As much as he enjoyed his nibble on Lily's neck, he longed to taste another part of her so that she would scream his name forever.

Even from where he was sitting, he could hear the entire conversation taking place in Jane's house. With every word exchanged, he could picture the confusion washing over Lily's beautiful face. In a twisted sort of way, it was almost endearing to him.

Jerry smiled coldly, devising the next step to his plan...he knew it was go-time...now or never for his latest twist in the game of cat and mouse between him and his future dark bride.

Sex attack..

"Soon you will be my pet forever, Lily" he murmured to himself, licking his lips "I'm the predator...and you are my prey"...

... Lily stayed over at Jane's house until the following evening. When she learned that she had been out of it for a day and a half, she immediately felt bad and insisted on going home. Jane wanted to keep her where she was for a little more time so she stayed for a little while longer.

As she entered her house, the thing she wanted to do first was take a long, hot shower. She rushed into the bathroom, eagerly peeled off the clothes Doris had graciously lent her, and stepped under the luxuriously warm water. She grabbed her loofah , put a couple of drops of her body wash on it, and scrubbed away.

The nastiness she felt from the rufilin fell away from her pores and down into the drain, making her feel energized again. After thoroughly washing and conditioning her hair, she turned the water off and stepped out of the shower.

She gazed at her reflection in the mirror, grateful that she didn't have bloodshot eyes or under eye circles.

Do you like good music? Do you like to dance?

'A little pale' she noted, examining her complexion 'But otherwise good'

Then, something caught her eye and she leaned in for a closer look.

"What the hell?" she murmured as she saw a faint reddish-purple mark on her neck.

Examining the discoloration with her fingertips, she gingerly touched the affected area. As soon as she did, though, a wave of pleasure radiated through her body.

"Must be some kind of bruise I got when I fainted" she murmured, shrugging "Not much I can do about it now"

Feeling refreshed and normal again, Lily was about to go into her bedroom and get dressed when she heard a knock at the door. Slipping on her bath robe, she sauntered downstairs to see who it was.

It's nearly morning...wanna risk the chance?

She jumped back in surprise when she saw who it was...her darkly handsome neighbour, leaning against the frame expectantly.

'Shit' she thought incredulously 'It's Jerry'

Silently counting to three in her head, Lily regained her composure and opened the door.

Neighbour to neighbour...door to door...

"Hello, Jerry" she said, cautiously smiling at him.

"Hello, Lily" he greeted back "I was just checking to see if you're okay"

"I'm fine, thanks" she murmured, bowing her head "Thank you for helping Jane Saturday night. I must have been a handful"

"Uh, not a problem" he replied modestly, the barest hint of a smirk on his face "I'm glad I was able to help"

"Me too" she agreed, giggling slightly "Jane told me I have been out of it a couple of days"

"So, uh, I was wondering if you, uh, would like to come over tomorrow night" Jerry suddenly said, turning serious for a moment. "I was, uh, thinking maybe dinner or something"

Enjoy the crime...you do the time...never been nothing before...

Before she could answer, she saw his eyes wander over her body...resting on her chest. She felt a blush creeping up her cheeks.

'YES' her inner voice screamed, as she processed what he had just said 'GO FOR IT LILY! GO FOR IT!'

"Sure" she replied, feeling dizzy with luck.

"Cool" he said with a slight nod "I'll see you around 8 then"...
