Before It Struck Midnight. *COMPLETE*

Chapter Three - Dancing with a stranger.

I began taking small steps towards him, and in what seemed like ages, I reach him.

I glanced back at both Britney and Brendan, just to see them looking my way. They both smiled at me before they both gave me a thumbs up.

I return them a smile before I turned around, as I faced him one again. Only his looks make the butterflies in my stomach fly.

Once I finally reach him, I am greeted by his, oddly, warm and welcoming smile.

"Sexy nurse, eh?" he began, I am glad he did. I saw him grin at me.

"Yup, the one and only," I say, I heard him chuckle, his chuckles sounded so warm, welcoming, it caused me to chuckle a bit along with him.

"And you are a vampire?".

"Dracula, in fact," he says, correcting me.

"Is there a difference?".

"To most people no, but to me yes," he replies with a mighty smirk. A smirk that sends my heart into overdrive.

"I guess it will be of my utmost respect to ask the sexy nurse her name..." he says before reaching out his hand towards me. Then I saw him slightly bow down. Does he want to kiss my hand?...

His eyes meet mine, causing me to slightly fluster. I gave him my hand as he, with a big smile, accepted my hand into his before he planted his lips gently onto my hand.

Of course, this caused me to blush even further, I know that he notices my blush by the way he smirked at me.

But I cleared my throat before answering his question.

"Emma... My name is Emma.".

" Emma..." he repeats my name, causing tingles to flow through my body "Such a beautiful name, for such a beautiful woman," he says before giving me a wink. Okay, I don't know how he does it, but he is doing it...

"What about you?" I inquired.

There is a pause, a longer pause than I expected. Just as I was about to change the topic...

"My name is Brenden" he answered. "Yeah... Not such a good name for a guy as hot as me... I get that a lot" he added, smiling sadly.

"No... No, I was gonna say how I really like it... It sounds really nice, suits you..." I tried to reassure him. But to be honest, it does kinda suit him.

I then felt a sudden relief when I saw a smirk appear back on his face.

"Does the beautiful, sexy nurse want to dance with the Dracula?" he asked me, he offered his hand out moments later, just as a slow song comes on.

"My pleasure..." I accepted his offer. Now, I placed my hand on his.

As our hand's touched, it set off millions of sparks that soared through my body. I felt his dominating grip. He led us to clearance before we began dancing, we tried matching the speed of the song.

My hands go onto his shoulders, as I felt of his left-hand grip my hip, while his right-hand rested on my shoulder. That is about it from all I know about ballroom dancing.

"Are you okay?" he asked me.

I nodded before I gave him a bleak smile. If I tell him that I don't know how to dance, he will definitely leave me. I know he will.

"You don't seem fine, tell me if it will make you feel better," he offered again.

I gave him another sheepish smile before directing my eyes down. I felt slightly embarrassed. A woman who can't dance?...
