Part 2 of 六十四
I grabbed my bag, and quickly headed out the door. It's been nearly a year since Orpheus and I started dating...and since my mom died because of a car accident. I've never felt this...connected to another person before.
I headed to his door, and he immediately opened the door, and peppered me with kisses. "I missed you." He whines. "But I was here yesterday Phee." I laugh, saying his nickname I created.
"But I still miss you. Every time I'm away from you for a second, it feels likes hours!" He mutters, and then grabs my hand. "Alright, alright." I smile.
He leads me to the front seat, and buckles me in before he gets into the driver's seat and buckles himself in. "Get ready for the amazing place I have to show you tonight." He smiles.
One huge thing that I've learned about Orpheus, is that...he's rich as fuck. Like, I realise that every time we're somewhere, he pays everything. We go shopping? He pays.
Like, I feel like I've never put a single cent into the relationship at all. I mean, I insist on paying for myself, but he somehow always charms me and just...pays.
Soon, we got out of the car, and we were at some five star restaurant. I was about to spit blood. Orpheus took me out to eat here?! I glanced towards him.
As if he noticed, he turned towards me, gave me a smile and grabbed my hand. He dragged me in there, and got us seated and placed the menu in my hands.
"Orpheus...this place looks so...fancy...and these dishes are all so...they don't even have a price on them...they look so expensive." I looked at him worriedly.
"No, it's okay. Just pick whatever you want to eat." He smiles, rubbing my hand. "O-okay." I nodded, and looked at the menu again. In the end I got a salad.
He got steak, fries, and spaghetti. As our meal arrived, I just crushed on the leaves of lettuce, while he started cutting his steak. Soon, a piece of steak was held towards my mouth.
I looked at him questioningly. "Eat." He said, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world to do. I ate the steak. It was so...so tender, so juicy... I moaned in delight.
He smiles, as if satisfied. And so basically whatever he ordered, went all into my stomach. "Are you okay? You didn't even eat anything..." I looked at him worriedly.
Suddenly, we heard plates dropping in the background. Orpheus looked strangely...alert? "I have to use the bathroom." He says, standing up abruptly.
He walked away, and I was left confused. He seemed a little...pale. Was it just me, or his golden eyes flashed...slightly red? I think it was just my imagination.
I fiddled my hands, and looked around the restaurant. It was basically...empty except for the staff and us. He must have done something ridiculous like booking the entire restaurant.
I started getting a little uneasy, as he hadn't returned from his bathroom break. I got up from my seat, and asked where he went. Surprisingly, they told me he went outside the building.
I went outside the building, and saw Orpheus...holding someone? Something didn't seem right here. I frowned. As I got closer, I could hear some horrifying sounds.
I accidentally kicked a pebble, and Orpheus turned to look at me. But what I saw, was not the smiling Orpheus, who always seemed calm and collected.
This Orpheus was...holding a dead body, with his lips dripping with blood, and there was a hole in the dead body's neck. He...this couldn't...could it?
He soon appeared in front of me. With a swift swing at my neck, everything went dark.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I woke up, I was in a dark place, and in a luxurious room. I got off the bed I was laid on. The big doors suddenly swung open, and I saw Orpheus. his eyes were...red.
I slightly stepped back. He appeared in front of me, as I yelped, and stepped back but tripped over my own foot. He caught me in time before I fell, and he asked me if I was okay.
"I want an explanation. What are you...who exactly are you...and what do you want with me." I said, drawing a line between us, as if we were back to strangers.
"Well, first of all darling as you can see, I am a vampire. And well, I can't exactly say I want anything from you. Actually, there might just be one thing." He said, deep in thought.
"And what might that be? I looked at him cautiously. "Your love." He said smiling, but then he frowned. "But of course that wouldn't work so..."
"So?" I asked, raising a brow at him. "So I want you...to not be afraid." He said, but this time a little quieter and less confident in his own words that sprouted from his mouth.
"But why shouldn't I be afraid?" I asked, as it seemed to have struck something in Orpheus. "B...Because I like...no...love....no....love, love, love you." He says desperately.
I looked him dead in the eyes. "Orpheus. Do I...have I known you before this?" I asked. This question seemed to have struck something big in him, as he began to falter.
"I um...I don't know how to explain..." He muttered. "...just tell me Orpheus. Telling me something is always better than telling me nothing." I said.
"Well...it started off...when I was a kid, and had gotten bit by a vampire. I was searching for a certain grass for my mother as medicine." He said quietly.
"But on that day when I got bit by a vampire, when the changes were happening, I was unconscious for several days. By the time I woke, I heard my mom was dead." He said.
"So I lived in the forest by myself, until one day you appeared. I um...sort of panicked when I saw you seeing me eat the animal...so I also transformed you." He said, scratching his neck.
"Um...and let's just say I've been watching as...a guardian since and uh...fell in love with you." He says. I look at him, loss for words. Suddenly, my head started hurting as memories flood in.
"...I remember now. That day. I was so...scared..." I said quietly. But then I looked him straight in the eye. "But...it's okay now. It's okay since I have you." I smiled.
"You're not...resentful? Not scared?" He asks, surprised. "No. I mean, I was a little scared at first, finding out when I was younger that I um...craved for blood." I said awkwardly.
"...thank you. Thank you so much...for, for not being scared of me, and just...everything." He says, tears rolling out. "Of course Orpheus." I said, wiping his tears away.
"It's just you and me. I'm sure nobody'll notice if I'm gone anyways." I giggle. "So...will you teach me how to live this new life?" I ask him. He nods. "Of course. Anything for you."
