"ASHLEEEEY!" James whined, calling out to his roommate from the kitchen. "DO WE HAVE ANY COCONUT WATER?"
"We ran out yesterday." The siren replied. James groaned. He was in desperate need of coconut water.
"CAN YOU GO GET SOME?"
Ashely sighed. "Just go and see Fawn. She's bound to have something."
James sighed and headed to the door, groaning. He was never himself when he was craving and in desperate need of the food that kept him going. Coconut water.
Now, normally, vampires drink blood. Everyone knows that. It comes as a shock when James says he is repulsed by blood. Coconut water made a great substitute for blood. And that's how James found the vital thing that keeps him going. The extra salads and smoothies from Fawn's cafe were just that, extras. Plus, someone needs to be a willing subject to test Fawn's new recipes.
James stumbled out of the door and made his way to his neighbours. He opened the door and stepped inside.
"Hey Faw-" he was cut off as a flying ball of unidentified substance flew past his head.
"GET BACK HERE YOU STUPID WEREWOLF! I TOLD YOU NOT TO GO THROUGH MY STUFF!" Willow yelled as she chased said werewolf around the apartment. Apparently Fawn wasn't in. Normally this doesn't happen. Unless Fawn is busy.
"I'll... I'll just leave you to it..." He said and stepped out. They didn't hear him of course. He knew that. James sighed and shook his head. He was starting to feel slightly dizzy. He needed coconut water. And he needed it now.
James knocked on Eliza's door. The demon was always able to fix their problems. "James. How can I help?" She said
"Do you... Have any coconut water?"
She thought for a second. "I think I bought a supply of coconut water bottles. I take it you ran out?" James nodded and followed Eliza inside. Eliza grabbed a couple of bottles out of the fridge and handed them to James. He took them great fully and chugged a bottle down. "Thanks. And Willow and Max are fighting again. Just thought I'd let you know in case things get to out of hand."
"Thank you James." He smiled and walked out the door.
