True Blood

Midnight Club

In a big dark room, people sit and watch strippers dancing on poles, showing off their bodies. Men all watch as if they was high, just watching the girls dance wearing only black leather suits, that fit they body tightly, showing all their curves. Many take a sip out of their beer and whiskey pints. Crazy laser lights circled the dark room while loud thumping music rung all around. In a far corner of a room, a man sits by a table, just watching the strippers with hunger in his eyes. Not tearing his eyes from them. He took couple deep breaths as another man steps towards him, blocking the view.

"What are you looking at?" He asked as he turned to face the now topless girl on the stage. A knowing smile spreads across his face. "Sexy aren't they?" He asked as he placed a pint in front of his companion.

"..." his companion stared at them, then looked away. "I'm not interested."

His friend justed stared at him, as the look in his eyes told him everything. The look of hunger showed within them. Not lust but hunger. Nino knew Adrien's secret and was willing to help him break the blasted curse upon him. Adrien turned back to watch his meat sway and turn around the pole. His tongue licks his bottom lip.

"Dude, try to control yourself." Nino whispered beneath the loud music above them. He knew Adrien heard him as he nod in reply.

"I can't help it Nino. Sometimes I can't control the need for blood..." Adrien whispered back making sure Nino could hear him though the noise.

"Well, you better behave" Nino warned acting as if he was his father. "If anyone finds out then..."

Adrien smirked as he rolled his eyes and shakes his head. "Yeah, whatever you say. Father."

"Hey, I'm being serious. What if anyone knows that you are a..." He stops himself short. "Look, I gave my word. To keep your dark secret between us... But, well you know? You have to try to control that hunger - adrien are you even listening to me?!"

Adrien just spaced out. He could smell something strong. He looked around the room, watching all the girls step past. His eyes scanned and his nose twitched like a curious puppy or a wolf on a hunt. He turned to face the steel doors beside them and gets up fast. He pushes the cold bar steel barrier and opened the large heavy door. He scanned the night outside, to meet some men smoking something strong, that smelt of weed. He was about to close the door, when he smelt the same strong scent. Turning slowly, he felt something hitting him hard across his back.
Turning fast, he caught a girl with dark blue hair and large bluebell eyes. That's when the scent hit him. It was sweet and strong.

"I-I'm sorry..." The girl stuttered as her eyes met his. They both stared at one another for felt like hours. He could hear her heart beating in a rhythm. He could smell her blood. He tried to ease his hunger. Realising the situation she was in, she gave him a small and awkward smile. "T-thanks." Adrien just nod as he watched her run into the large steel door behind him. Before it closed, he raced back within the building and scanned the room for the girl in wonder. As he sat back down in his usual spot, he reached for the pint glass and raised it to his lips... Only to find the scent of that mysterious girl on his hands and fingers.

"What was that about?" Nino asked as coping adrien's thoughts.

"I don't know. I just don't know..."

As the evening got close to midnight, he spotted the same girl that he bumped into. She was taking drinks to the tables with a weak smile upon her face. As a woman walked past him, he held her wrist quickly making the girl jump in shock.

"Excuse me," he began in a gentleman fashion that he was. "Who is that girl?"

The woman just followed his glaze upon the blue haired girl in front of them and replied bored. "That's Marinette."

Marinette? Adrien repeated as he tried to register her name and scent.

"She's new to this whole thing." The woman explained. "But don't bother with her. There's more girls here that will be willing to pleasure you and your cute friend over there." She winks as she leans on their table and begins to show off her legs.

Nino almost choked on his pint as Adrien just stared past her at the bluenette in fascinating.

"There have been countless of times, where men ask Marinette to sleep with them. When she refused, they double their prices. She always say no." The woman started saying as Nino gave her a awkward grin hoping the ground would swallow him whole. Thank fully, Adrien dismissed her.

"Thanks. That will be all."

Feeling defeated, she leaves them be. Which to Nino's relief. Adrien took another sip of his pint, with his eyes watching Marinette. After a while, Nino yawns and was about to take his leave. Throwing coins on the table, he takes his black jacket from behind his chair.

"I'm beat. Let's call it a night. Adrien?" Nino watched as his friend took another sip of his third pint of beer in disbelieve. "Your not staying because of -!" Just then, he turned to a fight at the bar. A man leaning forward towards Marinette, holding by the wrist pulling her close, demanding for her to sleep with him.

"I'll pay you double" he said in a wobbly and sober way. Marinette tried to make the man release his hold on her, but he kept tightening. "Come on. Pretty little thing."

What did he just called her?! For some reason, that made adrien's blood boil. His eyes changed and he starts to growl slightly. Nino tried to stop him, but it was too late. Adrien stepped towards the bar and the man and punched him in the face. The impact got him of gaurd as he fell sideways and onto the floor. As he fell, he let Marinette go, but as she tried to stand and stay balanced, she fell right into the bottles of whiskey and wine. The drinks and alcohol fell on top of her, drenching her from head to toe. Adrien froze as he looked down at the floor beside her. Mixed with the alcohol was drops of glories, delicious red blood. He eyed the drops for a while, then saw that Marinette was unconscious. Realising what has just happened, he turned to face Nino. Who just gave him a look, telling him that he gone too far and that they should leave. He did what Nino suggested and lefted, before anyone could ask.
