also i had no clue what to name this chapter so here's what u get luvs

—

"Okay first off— we aren't posers, per say." Mike crossed his arms, "And second off, there actually are rules when it comes to drinking blood. If they are a friend or a lover or whatever— you only drain them a bit. If they are an enemy, you are free to drain them out completely."

"What?" Mike raised an eyebrow jokingly, "You expected something crazy?"

That's a common misconception about vamp kids. While this didn't apply to all vampires, vamps tended to not be crazy and monstrous. Unlike Goths, Vamps were quite pleasant to be around.

Vamps started around the early 2000s. It was about as old as Mike himself was. It drew inspiration from vampire mythology and popular culture, particularly films like "Twilight" and "Interview with the Vampire." The aesthetic featured dark, elegant, and sensual elements.

The fashion included dark and dramatic clothing in black, burgundy, or deep purple colors. Common fabrics were lace, velvet, leather, and fishnet stockings. Makeup involved pale skin, dark smoky eyes, and bold, blood-red lips. As seen in all the vamps kids including Vampir.

The aesthetic embraced a fascination with darkness, sensuality, and the supernatural. It became popular among subcultures, alternative music scenes, and online communities.

Actually, there's something ironic about Vampir. He has hemophobia. Mike doesn't like blood. Like at all. He noticed how much he would freak out whenever a blood scene came on during the vamp kid's movie's nights since he was a toddler. Hell, it got so bad that he had to spend half of the movie nights in the bathroom because even looking at blood makes him queasy.

But that's so embarrassing for him! He's the dracula  damned vampire leader after all! And he can't stomach blood!  Like, what would happen if someone found out? He be an outcast! Maybe. Probably. Definitely.

-TW ENDS HERE-

"Okay so, about the whole Vampire meetup, per say." Mike ate a chip, then continued; "It's on Saturday and you can show up at my house at 4:20pm. I'll drive you there and back."

Mike leaned on his chair and put his arms up behind his head like a cool anime boys do. Mike wasn't a weeb but he has seen his fair share of anime (mostly the vampire related ones) and that's what ALL the cool main characters that get all the girls do.

Well, he was going for a boy. But it would probably work on him too... right? Right????

"Hey dimwits!" Yelled the old hag, "You are thirty seconds late to your shift! Get up! Your break is over!"

"Yes ma'am," groaned Mike, throwing out his trash.

"Why the hell did I hire the two most faggy emos in this fuckin' town..." muttered the boss.

Mike gave the old hag a dirty ass look. Luckily for his job, the boss didn't notice.

Before Mike went back to work he grabbed Pete's shoulder and pulled him aside, "Maybe you can say to your parents that... I don't know, that you wanna hangout with a friend..? I know that is lame but it might work, per say."

He smiled at Pete as warmly as he could muster and went back to his job. Waiting tables. Cleaning said tables. Grabbing new customers. Taking their orders.. Despite the constant activity, his mind felt empty and devoid of thought. It was as if he was operating on autopilot, going through the motions without consciously engaging in the tasks at hand.

Eventually, the shift ended. Finally. Only one more shift to get through before Saturday comes around.

Just one more day...
