I can't believe it... vampires really exist!!! - Part 18

“Well uhm… I guess… you take the bed and I’ll take the floor” Dante said looking around his room. You looked at him surprised then shook your head ‘no’ and said “No way… I can’t let you do that, it would not feel right to me”. Dante looked at you shocked then sighed “But what else do you suggest then?” he asked raising an eyebrow at you. “Ehh…” you uttered and scratched your head, *Well actually that’s a good question cause I have no idea* you thought. “I’m not sure actually, but I still don’t want you sleeping on the ground. This is your house after all” you mumbled looking down.

“Well uhm… then I guess… we can… s-share the b-bed” Dante stuttered looking away from you. You looked at him surprised then blushed furiously *Wow uhm… what to do… I can’t let him sleep on the floor, I’d feel horrible… so I guess we have no other options* you mentally reasoned. “Y-yea… that could work… I mean we’re just gonna be sleeping in the same bed, that’s all” you said hesitantly and blushed. “Okay then uhm… I guess you’ll need something to sleep in, let me see what I can do for you” he said as he started to walk over to his closet.

He opened up his closet doors and started to dig through it. You stood there watching him *It’s okay Lilly, you’ll be just fine… you’re only gonna be sleeping in a bed… you can do this, you can… it’s only sleeping in a bed… with someone else also in the bed… with a guy in the same bed!* you thought biting your bottom lip. Dante came walking over to you with clothes in his hands. “Here you go, I hope these will fit you” Dante said handing the clothes to you. “Uhm okay thanks, I’ll go change” you replied and turned towards the bathroom.

You went into the bathroom and closed the door behind you. You finally took the time to look at the clothes that was given to you. It was a black long-sleeved t-shirt with a red rose on it and a pair of grey boxers with white skulls on. *Wow these are cool* you thought approvingly as you started to undress. You kept your underwear on and then put the t-shirt and boxers on. You quickly splashed your face with some cold water then dried your face off and went to the bathroom door *Omg... I can’t believe this is happening* you thought unbelievingly as you opened the door and stepped out.

As you stepped out you were fiddling with the t-shirt *This shirt is a lot tighter than the one that I wore before… it almost clings to my body, the boxers seem a little smaller than the previous one as well* you thought surprised. You shrugged and looked up towards the bed expecting to see Dante either in the bed or near it, but instead saw nothing. *Huh… where’s Dante?* you mentally questioned looking around the room. You walked over to the bed and sat down on it *I wonder where he is and what he’s doing* you thought as you pulled your legs up onto the bed and crossed them. *Maybe he is feeling like a midnight snack or he’s thirsty* you thought placing your elbows on your legs and supporting your chin on your hands.

You were still lost in thought when the bedroom door suddenly opened up “Hey Lilly I thought yo-” Dante was cut off when you suddenly hit the floor with a thud! “Ouch” you mumbled rubbing your side, “Are you okay?” Dante asked trying his best to hold back his laughter. You began to laugh nervously then stood up off the ground “Y-yea I’m fine, I guess you just startled me” you replied grinning. Dante chuckled “Sorry” he apologized with a smile, “Oh don’t worry it’s my own fault anyway” you reassured and returned the smile.

“Well what I was saying before was I thought that you might be thirsty so I brought us something to drink” he said handing you a glass. You took the glass from him “Thank you” you said then taking a sip “Yum Pepsi” you said approvingly and smiled. Dante laughed “Yea of course” he said and took a sip of his drink. You looked at his glass and saw that it was the same red wine that they drank at dinner. You raised an eyebrow at him and he looked at you questioningly “What?” he asked eyeing you, “Wine… at this time of night?” you asked sceptically. “Ehh… well I like this wine a lot so, I can drink it at any time” he replied a little unsure. You eyed the glass in his hand “Wow then this wine must be really good” you said nonchalantly as you stared at it, “Uhm yea it is very good” he said averting his eyes.

“Wow well I’m not a big fan of wine, but since you like it so much it must be really good” you said tapping your chin with your index finger. “Sure is” he said then drank some, “Could I have a taste?” you blurted out turning red. Dante choked on his drink but managed to keep it down by pounding his fist against his chest. “Y-you want t-to t-taste it?” he asked completely shocked, “Ehh yea… please” you replied shyly. Dante looked like he had seen a ghost as you glanced at him and then saw him gulping. *What’s wrong with him? Why is this such a shock to him? It’s just wine* you thought curiously. Dante cleared his throat “Well uhm I don’t think you’re gonna like it very much so I would recommend you rather not” he said quickly.

You raised an eyebrow at him “Well even though you said that I’d still like to try it please, to see for myself…” you trailed off, *Maybe he doesn’t like sharing a glass* you thought. “You can pour some in another glass for me if you don’t like sharing a glass” you said flatly. Dante looked taken aback by your words “Oh Lilly, no-no it’s not that, not at all… it’s just that I really don’t think you would like it” he said apologetically. You smiled then a giggle escaped your mouth “Dante, it’s not like the stuff will kill me. If I don’t like it I’ll just make a disapproving sound, but if I do like it I’ll obviously tell you that I like it, I’m curious as to what it tastes like since you seem to like it so much” you explained and smiled politely.

Dante looked at you still shocked and now you could also see worry in his eyes. *Why is this such a big deal to him? The way he is acting is only making me more and more curious* you thought excitedly. Dante took in a deep breath then let it out slowly “I have the funny feeling you’re not gonna let it go, are you?” he asked and you shook your head ‘no’. Dante sighed in defeat “Okay…” he murmured and slowly handed you the glass. You took the glass from him and as you held your breath slowly brought it to your lips, you glanced at Dante seeing a sad expression on his face. The look on his face confused you but you continued anyway.

The glass touched your lips and soon after the liquid entered your mouth. There was barely a mouth full in your mouth when you abruptly stopped and closed your mouth as you pulled the glass away from your mouth. Your eyes grew wide as the liquid went down your throat and you saw Dante’s expression turn to complete horror. As the last of the liquid disappeared down your throat, without swallowing, you opened up your mouth and put your index finger into your mouth and then slowly removed it. What you saw on your finger made your eyes grow even wider.

“Blood…” you whispered.
