Rain and Revelations

"But Bill! You don't understand! It's because I-"

"Because you what?!"

Their voices could just barely be heard over the sound of pounding rain, even with the loud and shrill quality of their blatant screaming. It was late enough in the day and cool enough in temperature that the moon seemed to glow in the sky and brighten the dark clouds that overcast it. The feeling paired with the gentle darkness and overwhelming rain pour was heart-wrenchingly tender, and the clear emotion, desperate and clinging for understanding, in Tatum and Bill's voices only served as an extra punch to the gut.

"Because you what, Tatum?!" Bill outright screamed, anger taking over every fiber of his being. His voice choked on the sobs threatening to surface themselves and he turned his head away from her, as if looking away would spare him of vulnerability.

"Because I love you!" Tears were openly pouring down her face and mixing with the rain, the two becoming indistinguishable from one another.

There was a pause.

"...Are you out of your mind?!" His previous state of utter despair seemed to be gone in an instant, as he looked at Tatum in bewilderment. "You killed my mom!" He exclaimed frantically, flailing his hands around wildly.

"... God, you're so hot when you yell at me," Tatum's blue orbs glistened in the moonlight and overcame with lust as she stared at Bill's abnormally sharp canines.

Bill stared for a moment, startled at the sudden outburst. It wasn't long before Bill's frantic expression went hard and furious. "I'll fucking kill you, how about that?" he snarled, jumping at Tatum and wrapping both hands around her neck. His nails dug so hard into her that it broke skin, and the veins in his arms popped out violently with the sheer force of his grip.

Tatum grabbed his wrists in response, but instead of prying his hands off of her, she pushed them harder into her neck. It's impossible to say how she managed to speak in these conditions, but somehow, she managed to rasp out, "Ha-..r..der-".

Before she knew it, she was violently pushed to the ground and gasping with the sudden ability to breath. "You're sick," Bill spat, his hands frozen in front of him. With a whiff of something familiar, he glanced down at his hands and saw an unusual amount of blood under his fingernails. Unable to control his impulses, he pulled Tatum up by her hair and spun her around.

Tatum was left speechless as he sucked the oozing blood out of her neck. When she was turned back around to face him, Bill's mouth was covered in blood and slightly hung open, showcasing even more red along his teeth. Her eyes followed his every movement as he reached a hand up to wipe the blood off of his mouth. It was a miserable attempt at cleaning anything up, instead just smearing the blood further. Although, the gesture was probably nothing more than a demonstration.

"Awooga," Tatum sighed dreamily, and the next moment he was gone.
