Interview With The Vampire Imagines

|| 23. Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer ||

All that existed.
Him.
You.
Everyone else.

He mattered only, the whole reason you existed was to kill him. You were at work, closing up the shop, it was a warehouse place after all. Racking's of products that went on for around 1 and a half miles, a building that had to have each one searched before leaving. It was endless, the day had been bad and you were left to close away by yourself. You were doing exactly this, racking 4 was all sweet products.

You checked all the numbers, each one never went unaccounted for, each one was usually there. As you were ticking down the list, you looked up and saw one was missing from a palette.

Nothing was spilled, no evidence of a single packet of bonbons missing. Odd, how does something like this just disappear? You check again just to make sure you didn't miss anything. But nope, still one was missing.

"Y/N, oh how to see you again" muttered that voice.

"Lestat, I see you found me again, how wonderful!" you say, smiling to turn around and look at him. The packet of bonbons directly in his hands.

"Oh to be able to taste such small looking things, I'd be delighted but can't bet it will go down to well now, would it?" he says, stepping up close in front of your face.

"Your right, it probably wouldn't, they are quite lovely though." you mutter, as you hold out your hand, expecting the packet back. However, he had other plans.

Lestat said nothing for a moment, the glare of his eyes into yours sent shivers down your spine. You still held your hand out patiently and then, after the long pause, he placed the bonbons into your hand.

You went to grab them and as your hand slipped in his, that was it. Lestat grabbed it and spun you around, his other hand gripped tightly around your waist.

"What the hell? I wouldn't expect anything less out of you, why am I shocked?" you say, blushing. His body against yours was another feeling, something you'd never felt before.

"I didn't come here to harass you, nor steal this unpleasant human food. I came here to explain something to you." Lestat whispered against your ear.

"Yeah? Like what?" you ask sternly, and he chuckles.

"Every thought I have is about you, how I want my hands to glide across your body naked, how I can only think about tearing your clothes off, how I only want to kiss every corner of your body." he says seriously, you were stunned.

Suddenly his grip loosened on you and you composed yourself back, he had left you speechless. Finally, he passed you the bonbons and you place them onto the shelf, ticking them off on your list.

"Lestat... that is wrong. This is wrong, our only aim is to kill each other, we're enemies. I only want to murder you, that's my only aim." you say, but he senses the weakness in your voice.

"Oh really? Then why do I feel like you want it just as badly as I do." he says, and you look at him once again. This time not saying a single word at all, you glance back away from him and start walking away. That was going to be best.

Wait.
You've wanted to kill him all your life and you've got the chance, why not take the shot?

"Do not walk away from me!" he shouts from the distance between the two of you. Although, you do not listen and carry on walking away, ready to finish for the night.

You feel your box cutter knife in your pocket. Slowly, you pull it out there it was, the moment and the chance to do it.

You turn around, feeling his presence straight behind you, he moved fast. You slide the blade up so it's naked to the eye and turn around. "Should I say I'm sorry that it's took so long?" you say, looking at him dead in the eye.

"No, you should be. After all, it has been your entire life goal, as mine to kill you, we could just do it here, right now. Finally the everlasting battle over." Lestat says, and leans in ever closing to your face.

You feel his hot breath on your face, that was it. The knife slips from your hand as your arms plunge around his neck, and you lips meet his in a harmony you've never felt before.

They collide together smoothly, like two puzzle pieces made for each other. Lestat pulls you up onto his hips and you pull away from his lips. "This cannot happen, it isn't right, enemies don't sit and devour each other's lips." you say in the heat of the moment.

"I say, keep your friends close but keep your enemies closer." Lestat mutters, a grin forming along his face...
