Prompt #9- The Night We Met

Robbie Hunter was many things. One thing he wasn’t, however, was a voyeur. So he wasn’t sure just why he was standing there staring at the two people on the beach. Something about it was fascinating him.

The man’s arm wrapped tighter around the woman’s waist as he buried his face further into her neck. She let out a low moan and Robbie flushed. That noise finally prompted him into moving and he turned back the way he came.

He barely made any noise as he ducked back behind the wall he’d been standing against, but it was apparently enough as the man’s head shot up and looked straight at him.

“Who’s there?”

The voice was familiar. He backed away as quietly as he could. It was barely a few seconds later before he felt a hand grasp the back of his shirt and shove him against the wall. A yelp was all that was able to escape him before a hand covered his mouth and a hand closed around his throat.

Warm breath ghosted over his face, a slightly coppery smell reaching him. He gave a muffled squeak as the hand tightened against his windpipe slightly. It wasn’t enough to hinder his breathing but still uncomfortable. A head came forward and pressed itself against the side of his head, taking in a deep breath, before it froze.

“Robbie?”

He was immediately pulled back from the wall, out under a light. Robbie stumbled, just barely managing to catch himself on a guardrail. Spinning around, he expected to see some crazed madman standing there. Instead, he caught sight of one of his best friends.

“Kim?”

Then he caught sight of the blood on the blonde’s face and the light glinting off of two very obvious pointed teeth.

Two voices echoed. “Hell.”

Drabble Summary: Robbie comes back the next night.

oOoOoOoOoOoOo

Prompt #14- Insomnia

He didn’t know why he came back here.

Robbie frowned as he pulled his legs up and wrapped his arms around them, resting his chin on his knees. It was calming out here, he supposed. With nothing but the sound of waves and an endless span of stars above him. A sigh escaped him as he dug his feet into the sand. He hadn’t been able to sleep, merely tossing and turning while trying to get comfortable.

“You know it’s dangerous to be out alone at night.”

The voice made him freeze up. “I can take care of myself.” He saw a form take a place beside him from the corner of his eye. Robbie shouldn’t have been surprised. Kim had been trying to talk to him all day, but he’d been avoiding the other like the plague.

Robbie turned to look at the man beside him. Kim was staring out over the ocean thoughtfully, biting the bottom of his lip. He half expected to find the pointed teeth he had seen yesterday but they were completely normal.

“If you want to ask me something, just ask it.”

Trying to be nonchalant, there was still a quiver in Kim’s voice. Robbie still continued on. “How long have you been…” He trailed off not knowing how to put it.

“A vampire?” Kim seemed amused by this. Shrugging, he turned to look at the brunette. His eyes glinted gold in the light and Robbie barely repressed a shiver. “Better part of a decade.”

A moment of silence came over them.

“You know you can’t tell anyone about this, right?”

Robbie shot him an incredulous look. “Are you crazy? They’d think I’m nuts!”

Kim chuckled and placed a hand on his shoulder. He froze immediately at the touch, but relaxed gradually into it.

Drabble Summary: Kim didn’t know why he was surprised.

oOoOoOoOoOoOo

Prompt #4- Long Dark Night of Soul

Kim didn’t know why he was surprised. He didn’t know why anything Robbie did surprised him anymore. But he still stood there, in shock, staring at the man sitting on the beach.

He would have thought that, after last night, Robbie wouldn’t come outside after dark again. The way that his friend had bolted and then disappeared anytime he tried to talk to him earlier, Kim figured he’d scared Robbie pretty bad.

Would he be able to fix this?

“You know it’s dangerous to out alone at night.”

The form in front of him froze, but he didn’t take off this time which Kim took as a good sign. “I can take care of myself.” The voice was muffled and strained, as he sat down beside him.

They elapsed into silence and Kim let the sound of waves wash over him. It was calming and he felt himself starting to relax. He caught sight of the man next to him watching him. It was all he could do not to shift uncomfortably under the stare. “If you want to ask me something, just ask it.”

Robbie sent him a nervous look. “How long have you been…”

“A vampire?” Kim grinned, his eye sight sharpening as he watched the man. The grin faltered as he realized that Robbie was slightly pale. “Better part of a decade.”

He let the silence encompass them, giving his friend time to process this new information.

“You know you can’t tell anyone about this right?”

Robbie looked at him as though he had grown three heads. “Are you crazy? They’d think I’m nuts!”

This time Kim could stop the chuckle. He reached up and placed a hand on Robbie’s shoulder, ignoring the fact the he tensed up at the touch.

Kim was pleased as Robbie relaxed.

Prompt: #3- No More Lonely Nights

Rating: T

Warnings: AU. Vampire-ness?

Word Count: 300

General Summary: “We enjoy the night, the darkness, where we can do things that aren’t acceptable in the light. Night is when we slake our thirst.” –Vampire’s Kiss by William Hill

Drabble Summary: Robbie didn’t know what being a vampire truly meant.

oOoOoOoOoOoOo

Prompt #3- No More Lonely Nights

They didn’t talk about it.

It was if it was some unwritten rule that they’d both unconsciously agreed to. During the day, it was as if nothing had changed, they didn’t mention it, avoided the subject, but during the night…. Everything had changed and nothing had changed.

This was more than Kim could have expected, hoped for even. Every night Robbie would join him on the beach. They would sit there and talk, sometimes his friend would ask questions that he wouldn’t hesitate to answer. Robbie seemed to get more and more comfortable with the idea that his friend was a vampire.

Then again, Robbie really had no idea what being a vampire meant. There was no way that he could know that there was a predator always there, under the surface, waiting. He could feel the darkness within him, whispering dark thoughts across his mind.

Kim would catch himself watching his friend as if he was a predator watching his prey.

But these thoughts, these whispers, they weren’t the same thoughts of death and killing that had disgusted him before. These thoughts murmured ideas of pleasure instead of pain, of taking more than Robbie’s blood. And he didn’t find these thoughts repulsive, even entertaining them without darkness prompting them.

And that scared the hell out of him.

Luckily, Robbie seemed obvious to all of this. Not noticing the looks sent his way or when his laughs started to get a little forced. Kim had control, more than he probably should have, considering.

But he had no more lonely nights now. Robbie sat at his side, laughing and smiling, subconsciously trusting his friend to keep him safe, and Kim felt less alone than he had for a nearly a decade.

And he would do anything to keep it that way.

General Summary: “We enjoy the night, the darkness, where we can do things that aren’t acceptable in the light. Night is when we slake our thirst.” –Vampire’s Kiss by William Hill

Drabble Summary: Kim kept getting edgier and edgier.

oOoOoOoOoOoOo

Prompt #12- Electricity

It was never once mentioned during the day. The two would go to school, sit in classes as if nothing was different. If Robbie didn’t know better he would have thought that he’d just been imaging this. He was beginning to worry that he was going crazy.

The only clue that something was different was the fact that Kim seemed to be getting edgier and edgier. Arguments with his father started bordering on violent. There were times when Robbie literally had to stop his friend from going after the man.

That was how it had come down to this. Robbie forcefully shoved his friend into the empty classroom, ignoring his protests. He shut the door behind them and frowned at Kim, who was watching him with an inscrutable expression. “What’s wrong?”

Kim just shrugged. “Nothing.” He made a move to push past the brunette.

Robbie’s hand shot out and he grabbed Kim’s arm, intent on stopping him. He barely had time to blink before he found himself pinned against the door with a dull ‘thunk’. Kim’s hands grasped his wrists as they pinned them by his head. Eye’s glinted gold as Kim’s face came to rest mere inches in front of Robbie’s.

Then it was gone and Robbie felt a set of lips press against the side of his neck. The lips parted and a tongue brushed the skin, sending a jolt of electricity through his body. He almost let out a moan, until a sharp set of teeth pressed down, not breaking skin.

“Oh.” He bit back a whimper and the head jerked back. Kim’s pained face looked back down at him. A nervous expression crossed it before a resolved look took its place.

Robbie felt the set of lips touch him again, this time pressing against his own.

Drabble Summary: Kim was surprised to find Robbie there, waiting as usual.

oOoOoOoOoOoOo

Prompt #2- Moonlight

Kim could clearly make the man out in the moonlight. Robbie’s posture was eerily reminiscent of that first night. He rubbed at his face, not wanting to freak his friend out with recent signs of feeding. As he cleared his throat Robbie’s spine stiffened.

“I’m sorry.” He sat down beside the brunette.

Robbie didn’t even spare him a glance. “It doesn’t change anything.” The words were probably an attempt to reassure him but they ended up sounding like Robbie was trying to reassure himself instead.

He shook his head. “I don’t regret kissing you.” This provoked a startled glance. Kim met his eyes without hesitation. “That wasn’t what I meant when I apologized. I’m sorry that I scared you.”

“I wasn’t scared.”

Kim grinned at Robbie’s immediate response. It was s lie and a bad one, but it was comforting to know his friend was trying to make him feel better.

“You look better.”

That was an off handed comment that had Kim laughing.

A flush rose up Robbie’s neck as he ducked his head. “I just meant that you look… you know… not a pale… um… does that mean…?”

“That I’ve fed?” Kim finished for him. He was surprised that Robbie would try and ask the question. His friend usually didn’t usually mention any of the darker aspects of Kim’s vampirism and Kim had figured that it was just something Robbie didn’t want to know. “Yeah.”

Robbie nodded, looking back out over the ocean. This gave Kim an enticing view of Robbie’s still flushed neck, making him reach up to brush a hand against it before he even knew what he was doing. The brunette jerked in response and sent him a startled look.

Kim just returned with a shaky grin before turning his gaze back to the ocean.

oOoOoOoOoOoOo

Prompt #5- Shooting Stars

Robbie stretched out on the sand, tracing the patterns of the stars with his fingers. He murmured softly to himself, ignoring the quiet snickering to his left. A streak of light shot across the sky and a smile broke out across his face. He loved shooting stars. Robbie tucked his arms behind his head.

“What are you doing?”

The quiet was shattered and he sighed. “I’m just looking at the constellations.” He saw Kim give a stretch and look at him.

“Like what?”

He grinned at the vampire before pointing up at the sky. “That’s Scorpius, the scorpion. It’s supposed to represent a scorpion that Orion killed in Greek mythology.”

“A scorpion.” Kim sat up slightly and narrowed his eyes at where Robbie was pointing. He could see a glimmer of gold appear between the eyelids before realizing that Kim was shifting his eye sight, trying to see what his friend saw. Finally, he gave up and leaned back down. “I don’t see it.”

Robbie shook his head and leaned closer to his friend. “Well, look to the right of it. That’s Lupus, the wolf. You see where it groups right there? That’s the head. And those right there? Those are the legs.” He glanced over to the vampire next to him only to find his face mere inches from the other’s.

He blushed, pulling back, only to be stopped by a hand on the shoulder. Kim was staring at him with an undistinguishable expression. “Yeah, I see it.” But he wasn’t looking up at the stars anymore.

Kim was looking straight at Robbie. A grin covered the vampire’s face and that was all the warning that he got before Kim pounced, effectively pinning him down.

Robbie blinked up at him, before Kim leaned down and pressed their lips together.

oOoOoOoOoOoOo

Prompt #11- Saturday Night’s All Right

Kim shifted the pile next to him again. He had no clue how he let himself be talked into this.

“Are you coming out?” He called.

There was a few seconds of silence before. “No!” Came the petulant reply.

Kim groaned and banged his head against the wall behind him. It wasn’t like there weren’t other things he would have rather been doing on a Saturday night that costume hunting with Robbie. There were other things he would rather be doing with Robbie period. A smirk crossed his face. Not that he would say so out loud. Robbie was still kind of uncomfortable about the new direction that their relationship seemed to be taking.

There was a frustrated noise from the changing stall and a costume went flying out from over it. It was only Kim’s vampiric reflexes that stopped it from landing on the floor. “I take it you didn’t like the costume then?” Kim could feel the glare though the wooden stall door.

“Maybe I just shouldn’t go.” Robbie’s voice was kind of muffled.

“Oh, no.” Kim shook his head. “You’re going. You already forced me to by an outfit for this stupid costume party. Going was your idea. So we’re going.”

The stall door opened a little and a head poked out. Robbie glared at him, which was quite a feat considering how blind he was without glasses. Kim turned the smirk on him. All he got in return was a head shake and his friend disappeared behind the stall again.

There were a couple more minutes of silence before it was broken again by Robbie’s exasperated yell. “Kim!”

Kim grinned. Robbie must have found his addition to his choices.

“That’s not funny!”

Another garment came flying over towards him and he caught the vampire costume, laughing.

oOoOoOoOoOoOo

Prompt #6- Dancing in the Dark

Kim knew he was skulking. But as he glared at one of the couples on the dance floor he really couldn’t bring himself to care. A mad-scientist Robbie spun an angel Tasha around the dance floor, laughing.

His expression darkened as Tasha whispered something in Robbie’s ear that he laughed at. Some of his baser instincts called at him to eliminate this competition, to defend his territory. It called to him to grab his human and take him. This possessive side to his personality disturbed him because Robbie wasn’t his. Robbie didn’t belong to him.

He felt his teeth start to lengthen, pushing the fake ones out of the way. Kim pulled them from his mouth and was glad that he decided go for irony and dress as a vampire. Robbie had gotten a big kick out of it and his father hated it.

The song ended and Robbie pulled back from Tasha. She said something to him, tugging at his hand, probably want him to go for another song. He shook his head and said something back. Tasha smiled and nodded, before latching on to another partner.

Robbie was grinning as he walked up to Kim. He slid a hand down his friend’s back, pleasure coursing through him at the contact. An idea crossed his mind and he grasped the back of the man’s white coat. Robbie gave a half-hearted protest as Kim drug him to an empty storeroom.

Instincts began to rise to the surface and he pushed them down. That last thing he wanted was to scare Robbie again. Even if he wanted to agree with those instincts and take Robbie, mark him as his. But he wouldn’t force himself on Robbie.

Kim leaned forward, silently asking permission, before Robbie rolled his eyes and pulled him down.

oOoOoOoOoOoOo

Prompt # 13- Tender is the Night

“What is it like?”

“Hmm?” Kim looked up from his drowsy daze over to the man next to him. Robbie was stretched out on his stomach beside him, head resting on his arms.

Robbie glanced over at the vampire. “When you bite someone, what’s it like?”

Kim went silent. “When I bite someone I… forge a connection with them. During that time I could make them feel pain or numbness… or pleasure. Each one gives the person’s blood a different flavor.” Kim’s hand slid up to rub against Robbie’s neck, pressing against the spot where he had almost bitten him.

Robbie’s head tilted, baring his neck to vampire. Kim blinked, desperately wanting to lean over and trail his tongue up it. He pressed his head against the human’s. Not many people would be so trusting around a bloodsucker.

“You want to find out?” Kim nuzzled into the tempting neck in front of him. Robbie let out moan as a tongue trailed up it.

“Yes…”

Kim jerked back, not actually expecting a reply. “Are you sure?”

Robbie just gave a nod, closing his eyes and tilting his head.

His hand slid up the human’s neck and under the shirt, pulling the collar aside. Kim pressed his mouth against the skin, his fangs appearing. One quick move and blood squirted across his tongue. He let his arm wrap around the waist, pulling him closer as a moan of pleasure escaped the man below him.

Pulling back, Kim let his tongue brush over the wound, effectively sealing it. The body under him started to squirm and he pulled back some, letting Robbie flip over. Robbie was breathing harshly, blinking up with a dazed expression.

The next thing he knew, an arm wrapped around his arm his head and pressed a mouth against him.
