Moonlight Tempest (Completed)

If You Wanna Call This A Date, Be My Guest

Chapter 13

"Sam. If you don't answer me, I'm going to assume the worst has happened." Milo said sternly. Sam deliberately avoided Milo's gaze.

"Like I said-"

"Clearly something happened. What is it? Sam don't keep this from me! Did I hurt someone? Was it you? Tell me." Sam flinched. 'Technically speaking, he did hurt me... All I want is to be with him and all he was doing was teasing me last night.' Sam decided that eventually he should tell Milo, but not right now. "Sam! This isn't a game!"

"No."

"Then why are you playing with me?"

Sam stopped. He looked at Milo angrily. "No, Milo. You were playing with me." Milo gave a confused look. "I didn't want to say this. But since you want to know what happened, I'll tell you." Milo nodded his head, signaling that Sam should continue. Sam explained what had happened leaving Milo wide eyed and blushing.

"I-I... I'm so sorry! I shouldn't have done that!" Milo started to get up but Sam stopped him. "I-I should go... home."

"No. Stay with me."

"What! After yesterday? I don't think I should!" Milo said. "Sam, I drank your blood yesterday. Last night... I had a dream about tasting something so sweet. At first, I thought it was the Goblin Blood, but it wasn't. I couldn't figure out what it was... But now I know! It's your blood!"

"Whats wrong with that?"

"You should never let a Vampire drink your blood! It's like, the golden rule! I have a taste for it now! What if one day, I attack you? It's not safe for you!"

Sam scoffed. "You won't attack me."

"It could happen! I don't want to hurt you." Milo shook his head. "I have to go."

"You can drink my blood anytime you need to." Milo started to protest but Sam held up his hand. "I trust you. You won't hurt me. Any way... I want to ask you something."

"Sam...! This isn't something to take lightly!"

"I won't say anything more about it. You know how I feel now." Milo shook his head. "Milo... Do you reciprocate my feelings? Because after last night... I don't know what to think."

Milo blushed again. He looked away and responded. "I was drunk. Really drunk to be honest. Goblin Blood seems to be an strong intoxicant."

"Some people are brutally honest when drunk."

"You think I'm one of those people?"

"YES."

Milo sighed. "I am a... Very lovey drunk. Anything that moves I will be on it in a second. It's very disconcerting actually. Drunk me... I'm not an okay person. And when I'm intoxicated, it shows."

"What do you mean?"

"Because of what happened with Isabella, one could say I'm 'emotionally disturbed' when it comes to relationships. My drunk persona is the epitome of all the emotional distress I harbor. Through alcohol, I express myself in ways that involve humping everything within view. I actually lost my virginity that way." Milo sighed again. "I'm sorry if I caused you trouble."

Sam scoffed. "You didn't answer my question." Milo opened his mouth. "You didn't." Sam pulled Milo close and put his hand on Milo's cheek. "Tell me how you really feel for me." Milo looked into Sam's eyes. Sam could see the uneasiness as he was internally deliberating.

"Milo. Don't think that I will treat you like that bitch has. Or like anyone you've ever been with has. I will never hurt you like that. You deserve a lot better than her. Hell, you deserve better than me even. But... I can try to take care of you... Please... Give me a chance to." Sam saw the tears beginning to form in Milo's eyes.
