Brett wrapped his arms around Eddy's neck and pulled him downwards. Eddy flinched. As Brett was about to open his mouth, he saw Eddy's lips quivering.
Brett stammered.
"Eddy, I.. I'll be gentle, I promise"
Eddy grunted through gritted teeth;
"Brett.. please.. just get it over and done with it.. "

---------------------------------------------
Brett opened his mouth. His vampire fangs he had acquired 4 years ago in lieu of adult canines glistened. He was going to use these for their intended purpose for the first time.
Brett let his mouth hover over Eddy's exposed collarbone for quite some time, as he felt intoxicated by Eddy's scent and the anticipation of what a mouthful of his blood would taste like. For the last 6 months, Brett had fought the temptation of drinking Eddy's blood and while he felt guilty of having such thoughts, he couldn't get the idea out of his mind. He had been wanting this so badly and finally, he can... But then...
But then.
Without taking a bite from the neck in front of him, Brett slowly closed his mouth.
"...I ...can't.."
Brett gently pushed Eddy away. His voice shook as he whispered;
"Eddy, I'm so sorry to have even suggested it...And here I am saying I'm your friend. I'm so ashamed...."
Brett ran out of the shed.
Eddy was puzzled.
Eddy was so nervous and scared, his head was throbbing and he didn't hear Brett's apologetic words he had whispered before leaving Eddy alone in the garden shed. Eddy, therefore, had no idea why Brett didn't take his blood. While Eddy understood his fate as a human living in a vampire's servants quarters, he was still very scared when Brett was about to bite into his neck. Brett was 18 now, he was an adult and Eddy guessed he would have a much stronger bite and sharper teeth compared to what he had when he was 5 years old...! Perhaps Brett simply remembered how disgusting Eddy's blood tasted and decided not to go ahead with it.
When Eddy eventually got back to his family's room in the servants quarters, his parents were livid.
"Eddy !!! What have you done to Master Brett!?!?"
Eddy widened his eyes in shock and stammered.
"W, what!?!? Nothing!! I swear! I haven't done anything to him!"
"The gardener came and told us that he saw Master Brett run out from the garden shed distressed, then saw you leave afterwards."
"It's not what you think, I swear!! I would never do anything to Bre.. Master Brett!!"
"If Master Brett tells anyone in the main wing of any wrongdoing by you, I don't know what's going to happen to you Eddy and we would have no means to protect you..."
Eddy cried out;
"I swear, I have not done anything wrong...!! I.. I was just obeying his orders...!!"
"Eddy, come for a walk with me?"
"Yes..."
Today Eddy was alone in the kitchen, so he was able to duck out of the kitchen without having to let anyone know. He preferred it when the adults in the servants quarter didn't see him with Brett anyway.
Once they were outside and knew no one was within an earshot, Brett asked;
"Eddy... are you okay?"
Eddy raised his gaze.
"...The gardener saw us 3 days ago. He saw you leaving the shed, then me. The gardener thought you looked upset when you left. He thought I did something inappropriate to you."
"..Really."
"My parents were very concerned.. that if you told anyone in the main wing, they wouldn't know what could happen to me"
"Eddy, I would never ever tell on you. Besides, you've done nothing wrong."
"It's just that my parents are worried about us spending time together..."
Brett muttered exasperatedly.
"OMG Eddy I told you, it makes me more cross if anyone tries to stop you from seeing me!"
Eddy sighed in frustration;
"There is nothing, I can do, to right this situation. I'm stuck."
"Eddy... I.. I meant it when I apologised to you as I left the shed.. I want to put our friendship first. After all, you're the closest being that I've ever had to a friend."
Eddy looked at Brett in surprise. Eddy didn't know Brett had apologised before he left the shed. He was too nervous to hear it. His facial expression softened somewhat;
"...Well Brett, you are the closest being that I've ever had.. to a brother "
Brett's tense expression relaxed, too. He smiled;
"..Really? Oh Eddy that is so...."
"Even though I live here as a servant and you are the son of my masters. To me, you will always be Master Brett."
Brett's expression was now pained.
"Eddy, please don't call me that."
"Actually... now that you're 18 and an adult.. I really should be addressing you as sir like I would if I ever had to speak to your father.."
"Eddy...stop it"
"Your parents are being generous by calling us servants. I know most Vampires refer to us as slaves."
Brett's voice shook.
"Eddy.. please, please stop."
"Brett.. it's okay. I.. know my place."
Brett felt so torn and hurt, he felt like crying.
"Eddy.. just stop, please! Just.. shut up..!!!"
Eddy flinched and cast his glance towards Brett.
Brett glared at Eddy.
Eddy stammered.
"I..I'm sorry, Brett, I've overspoken.. ."
"You.. sure have Eddy..."
Brett grabbed Eddy's hand and pulled him along the path.
