Catnap never went into the sunlight.

That was something Dogday had noticed recently.

Usually when he invited him to play or hang out with him and the others during the day, Catnap would make some kind of excuse, like he was busy cleaning, or stuff like that.

But when he asked him during the nighttime, Catnap ALWAYS said yes.

And while Dogday loved playing bocce ball and flashlight tag as much as the next guy, sometimes he wished they could have a nice game of fetch during the day.

It made Dogday curious about what was going on with his boyfriend.

One night, Dogday decided to visit Catnap and invite him to take a romantic moonlight walk outside, so he climbed up the rope ladder and rang the doorbell.

No answer.

He rings the doorbell again.

Still no answer.

Dogday starts to get worried.

He slowly goes inside. "Catnap...?" He says, softly. "Y-you home...?"

He looks around, no sign of his friend.

All he could hear was the curtains blowing in the wind.

Dogday slowly goes upstairs, to Catnap's bedroom, knocking on the door. "Catnap?"

Still no answer.

He presses his ear to the door.

All he could hear was the sound of something... slurping...?

Against his better judgment, he decided to go in, taking a deep breath.

He gently opened the door.

"Catna-"

Nothing could have prepared Dogday for what he saw.

Catnap was kneeled down on the floor, desperately sucking on a bottle of mysterious red liquid, surrounded by at least 3 empty bottles.

Catnip gasps, jumping and dropping the bottle, causing it to spill.

He quickly covers his mouth, standing up.

'O-oh hi Dogday!' He nervously signs. 'W-what are you doing here?!'

He tries to kick the bottle of liquid under the bed, more of it spilling out.

Dogday was speechless, staring at Catnap, who was trying desperately to wipe the liquid off his mouth.

"Catnap..." he finally asks, stepping forward. "A-are you a..."

Catnap shakes his head. 'N-no! I'm not a...' he signs, wiping the rest of the liquid from his mouth. 'A-a... whatever you were gonna say!'

He signs, still covering his mouth with his other hand. 'S-so you can just think nothing of it!' he signs with a nervous giggle.

Dogday's suspicious look made it clear that he didn't believe a single word of what Catnap was signing.

Catnap sighs, his whole body sinking.

He uncovers his mouth, revealing his glimmering fangs.

Dogday's heart drops.

"Okay... yes..." Catnap admits, his voice even lower and more whispery than it usually was.

He steps a bit closer.

"It's true..." he says, tearing up.

"I'm a Vampire."
