♥ Blackheart ♥

The new housemate

After finishing my very interesting shift I locked up and began to walk home. The sun was setting a beautiful amber that I could not help but stare at, there was still a fairly soft warm air calmly swaying past my legs. While walking I noticed a tall male walking across the road to mine. Upon further eye stalking, I realised it was the Blackheart I had met earlier. To be fairly honest I was quite exited about seeing him again and I hoped he was walking my way on purpose. He bumbled around for a bit, hopelessly lost.

The further I slowly walked on, the closer he slowly walked towards me. He was really close now and I began to see he was approaching me. He smiled and stopped, I stopped too of course.

"Looking for something?" I asked smiling, he returned the smile and calmly replied back

"Ahhh, see, not quite, In fact....someone" 

"And who might that be?" I question "You". 

"Why?" 

"Because I don't have a place to stay tonight and I was hoping you would be kind enough to allow me to stay for a while, until I can find further accommodation"

I became more serious, why on earth would I allow that. Hm, I am certainly not normal. Temptation was etching it's way into my mind and I began to change my mind. It's my life, I can do whatever I wish. I.... I'm actually kind of curious what it's like to live with him. Even if only for a short while. This is not sane but I no longer care. I'll let him stay.

"Well....actually I don't mind, as long as you don't cause any trouble then that's fine"

A grin emerged from his face "Thank you, this is much appreciated"

"You're welcome, follow me then"

Perhaps this was a danger, I honestly couldn't care less. Life was too short and I was curious. Besides, this mysterious man may just hold a few secrets of some benefit to me.

We walked back to my apartment and I got my keys out to unlock the door. The door opened and I move out of the way to let him in but he insisted I go first.  Hm, polite too. I showed him around. I was fascinated as to how he would interact in such a normal environment. We both sat on the sofa and I offered him a drink of coffee and he accepted.

I began to properly introduce myself, expecting him to do the same in return. He didn't. It was slightly awkward and I felt some tension. It wasn't coming from him but rather me. I met his eyes and quickly looked away. He was so calm and relaxed that I was the one who felt awkward, I didn't want to be awkward so that then lead me to become shy and I almost made it awkward for us. Huhh, I think to myself. I haven't actually introduced myself to someone before, especially not a man.... an attractive one. That last part making a blush, flush across my body. I shouldn't think such things. I looked at him, nervous, I felt as though he had heard me. He smirked, I became more nervous. I became cold as to make up for whatever I seemed to lack.

"Well, my name is Claudia, I work at the bar and this is my cat, Faustus, he doesn't like strangers so I really wouldn't attempt to stroke him if I were you"

"Hm" He acknowledges my introduction. Fair enough, he doesn't have much to reply to. His hand reaches out to grab Faustus. My eyes widen and I become angry. I'm about to shout at him for even touching my cat. Faustus should have attacked by now, that's odd. Blackheart places Faustus on his lap. It appears so natural. His black fur blending into Blackhearts jacket, fittingly. He begins to stroke him and Faustus begins to purr whilst I stand there in bemusement. It's like the man purposely went out of his way to avoid my warning.

Yes, Faustus was a danger to strangers but I also depised other people touching him. That is my cat and the only person he will bond with is me. It's just me an Faustus. I hate the idea of Faustus loving another human that isn't me. Well I suppose Blackheart didn't appear very human at all.
