It was a party, the year it was 2019. Your only aim of being here was because you were looking for a boyfriend. Not that you were desperate or anything, you were just different. People looked at you like you were strange, it was because you were obsessed with vampires. You dreamed of being one, perhaps this cosplay party in New Orleans might just do it. It was a gothic themed party, you had to be 18 to go. You lied though, you were 17 so you didn't see it being a problem.

You had already flown out to New Orleans ready for the party later that night, you had brought a black dress. It was silk, with lace and gems on the top. Along with it, you had sown them yourself and had made a masquerade mask to wear. Then a simple pair of small black heals underneath, they were black, glass heals though. You had straightened your hair then, gotten ready. A special limo picked you up outside your hotel and you were on your way.

The car ride was quiet but short, so the awkwardness was soon done. You slowly got out the car, putting your mask on. Quickly, you walked down the carpet as pictures were being taken everywhere. You were never one to like to be photographed.

Inside, it was warm and drinks everywhere. "Champagne ma'am?" asked a servant and you shook my head. "I don't drink" you smiled and went to sit down at a table. You stared at everyone dancing and having a good time, perhaps you had under estimated the fun of this party. As you stared down at your phone, you looked up because your neck was sore. A man, he was staring at you. He too was wearing a mask like yours, but his blonde curls drowned his face. As you looked at him, his eyes did not move. Quickly, you shoved your phone back into your dress's under pocket and headed for the bathroom. He couldn't see you in there, you pushed through the people. It felt like a romantic scene from a movie.

You pushed into the bathroom and there was no one in there, you ran into a cubicle. Sighing in a sudden relief, you took off your mask for a second. Damn, this how Spiderman must feel after a mission or something, you thought to yourself. You wiped the sweat away, and then put it back on. Left the cubicle and then left the bathroom, walking away back to the table you were sitting at. It had been taken by people making out, you suddenly flustered. Wishing it was yourself. A both a couple tables down was open so you went a sat there. After about 10 minutes, a man touched your shoulder.

"Please dance with me, I ask" they said, you looked at them. It was the blonde man from earlier. One side of your heat told you to take it, he may be a vampire, the other side saying, don't do it, he's a stranger. But you smiled and nodded, him now taking you to the dance floor. You took one of his hands and put the other one on his shoulder. As for him, he took your hand and put the other on your waist. You blushed and you started to move to the music, waltzing across the entire floor, in sync with everyone else.

The dance felt like an eternity, but once it finished, you smiled letting go of his grip. That's the most romantic thing I'd ever experienced, your eyes never leaving each others once. You went to walk off, but a hand grabbed you. It was his. "what's your name?" he asked and you said "y/n you?". He smiled, licking his teeth, "Lestat". That was weird but you brushed it off, reassuring yourself that he couldn't be what you hoped he was. A vampire.

You went back to your booth, him sitting right next to you. "May I taste your innocence? I need to know?" he asked suddenly, and you were confused for a minute. "Do you mean kiss me? If so, go ahead I have nothing to lose" you replied, gulping as you had never kissed anyone before. Your first kiss was going to be a stranger, good going hey? He nodded quickly and you smiled, swallowing your salvia. Lestat's lips touched yours, two worlds collided right in that moment. It felt so right, yet so wrong. He pulled away quickly, "wow your pure huh? never kissed anyone" he said and you looked away. Blushing bright red, well he wasn't lying.

"may I take you to somewhere private?" he asked and you thought about it wisely. again, you had nothing to lose, "Okay!" you smiled. Lestat took your hand, you followed him to wherever he dragged you. Lestat made you run up the stairs and away into a bedroom. "Can we even be here?" you asked as he locked the door. "Yes, this is my room" he replied, and your jaw dropped. "It's so beautiful, I-" he cut you off by bringing you into the bathroom and locking that door too. "What are we doing?" you asked nervously and he smiled. Then he removed his mask to see his pale face and cold eyes, Lestat then tilted you back and breached his mouth.

"Your are vampire?-" you asked suddenly aroused, the teeth turning you on. "Yes darling, I am all you want. I can read your mind, very easily. If want to be turned so badly, it's driving me crazy y/n" he pleaded and you pushed him back up. Further, you removed your mask, reviling your true self. "I do, I want it badly, give me that honour Lestat" you begged and he leant you back.

"Ready?" he smirked and you blushed, then nodding a simple yes. You leaned you head to the side and his teeth slowly pierced your skin. The sudden pulling sensation, hurting terribly but feeling so good. Lestat pulled away as you lay on the floor and he cut himself open. "Drink and don't stop until I pull away" Lestat whispered and you drank. His blood as sweet as life itself, Lestat then yanked away and you sat there. His blood killing you, "I must leave, but stay here and sort yourself out, then come downstairs" he jumped up with some struggle, re-adjusting his mask back on, then wiping his mouth up.

Your body lay there until a sudden shock of life, woke you up from the coma. Quickly, you felt full of life and jumped up. You stared into the mirror, your eyes a deep blue like the ocean, your skin looked like his. Your mask lay on the side though, hungry you was though. You slipped it on, knowing what you had to do.
