				"Aw, c'mon, man! It'll be fun. You almost never go out and I promise you'll have funl It's just gonna be you, me, and a few friends."<br><br>"No, no. You know I..."<br><br>"It'll be fine." With those words, Elias was handed tight jeans and a tight shirt that would show his slim frame even under the leather coat he would certainly wear given the snow outside. He sighed, pulling on the dark jeans and the deep blue shirt, the worn leather jacket - quite a trendy item, he was told, imported straight from Japan by a friend for a bithday present - draped over his shoulders.<br><br>The jacket was simple enough, but stylish, hugging the long torso and brushing hips that led to even longer legs, pressed into dark leather boots that didn't go much farther than his ankles, mostly for preventing the snow that was already inches deep. He grabbed a pair of gloves as they headed out, running a hand back through his hair.<br><br>His hair was dark, glossy, hinting that he had a Japanese ancestor somewhere in his genetics that had leant him those inky strands and the exotic cheekbones, though that had been crossed over with the white skin of his French father and the milky, greenish eyes that only those who are utterly blind will ever have. <br><br>Just a few minutes between the cab and club and his lips were red from cold, cheeks pleasantly flushed, lending a glow to his ivory skin. His slim hands were pressed into his pockets, though one arm was carefully looped through his friend's, feet shuffling ahead of him so he wouldn't trip. He had been told that his walking stick would do him no good in the club so he left it, and his beloved dog Bones, at home. Andy, the friend tugging him down the street, had teased Elias for weeks that he named the good-natured dog Bones, but he didn't care. Emily, a neighbor who often came to check on him, had already agreed to feed Bones and walk him for the evening.<br><br>There was nothing but darkness and thumping noise as they approached the club, even worse when they entered it. Andy got them some drinks and passed a few hands into Elias' own, saying names that he could only associate to the feel of palms, "Rick, Derek, and John..." Elias nodded politely and took the offered shot of vodka. The party had started for the men, as it was a Friday night. Elias took the shot as directed, still a bit disoriented by the thumping music. <br><br>Soon enough, the other men wanted to dance, and with a few more rounds of liquor, they ended up forgetting to watch out for Elias. Half-panicked by the press of bodies everywhere he turned, he stumbled out of the crowd and to the edge of the dancefloor, hesitating around a table in the back. His fingertips ran over the tabletop then back of the chair, feeling the ridges and bumps, moving from object to object as he reoriented himself, slowly. No glasses to hide those milky eyes tonight...he had figured the dim lights would keep anyone from staring at him. <br><br>He took his jacket off, draping it over the back of a chair, and let out a slow breath as his pounding heart calmed a bit. His dark hair brushed out of the ponytail, tracing his jawline, the bits still held back managing to slid over the back of his shirt gracefully. He looked like someone who had been dressed to go to a club but he lingered awkwardly, fingers atop the objects near him, uncomfortable and obviously not a part of the crowd.

				Val was helping to tend the bar for a while as one of his workers took his break. He might be the owner of the club but that didn't mean he was above doing menial tasks. In fact he actually like doing some of them. It gave him something to do and think about, which is the whole reason he had started this club to begin with. All these young bodies dancing together, becoming one in a wave of motion. Each was so unique and he enjoyed just standing there and scanning the crowds, watching the people.<br><br>One customer in particular caught his attention. Even from his entrance he knew something was off about him from the way he walked and relied on his friend for help. When he caught glimpse of his eyes he concluded he was blind. Val had actually never had a blind man in his club before and it peeked his curiosity.<br><br>His attention was taken though by demanding customers and he was forced to wait until his employee got back before he could seek out the youth again. It was a few minutes before that happened and when it did the boy had moved. It took him a moment to find him again and wasn't that surprised to see him a bit lost. It looked like his friends had abandoned him.<br><br>Val knew from experience that the vulnerability and uncertainty he exuded at the moment would only lead to trouble. Someone would jump on that opportunity and take advantage of him. Although he had nothing against using humans as his food source, he still was capable of acting kind to them.<br><br>Slowly moving his way through the crowd he noticed the stares upon him. It didn't surprise him, he was normally held attractive by humans. His black hair, sleek but unevenly cut at the ends, fell to about mid-back at the lowest points. He was wearing a black shirt with the texture similar to silk, but not quite, along with black jeans that fit him perfectly. His amber eyes, which shown gold in some light, were focused on the youth.<br><br>He was a vampire and lived among humans, blending in with them well. Unlike some he did not hate humans or think that they were only food sources. Some were good friends in fact and he liked being among them. They were always so interesting in their complexity.<br><br>When he reached him he made his movements loud so that he would have more of a chance of knowing he was there. Leaning close, but not enough to scare him off, he asked for his permission to sit.<br><br>"Excuse me, do you mind if I join you?" He kept his tone soft and welcoming, though loud to hear over the music.

				Elias could hear...something. It sounded like footsteps over the music, as though someone were approaching him, through it could have just been the beat of the song. Then the voice came, and he knew that someone had indeed approached him, relief visible in a momentary flicker across his face. He was glad to have someone who had come over to him and decided to sit down. He was naive for someone his age, rather trusting of strangers because he had to rely upon them so much, even if just to get across the street without being hit by a bus when he was somewhere unfamiliar.<br><br>"Oh, no. Go ahead."<br><br>He sat, as well, fingertips lingering atop the table with those long legs crossed, eyes dreamily turned towards the crowd without actually seeing anything before him. <br><br>"I'm Elias, by the way. It's nice to meet you."<br><br>He extended a hand politely, hoping that he was facing generally the right direction, hoping that the other man would take his hand and not be too awkard about it if he was facing a bit off to the side. Indeed, his body was turned a bit to the left, hand hovering in front of Val but a bit off to the side, not quite facing where he should have been.<br><br>His friends were near the bar, ravingly drunk already, hitting on some girls.<br><br>Elias was more withdrawn, and seemed to shy away from the dance floor as though it were some great, moving beast, something that he didn't find terrifying but that he certainly was wary of. Like a small bird riding the back of a larger predator, he hovered at the edge of the room with Val by his side, smiling contentedly now that someone had come to talk to him.<br><br>It wasn't so much innocence as contentedness that was on his face, open and willing to make friends, though reserved enough that he certainly wasn't eager. His pale skin glowed red, then blue, then an icy violet as the lights flashed over them, though his eyes never blinked except to wet themselves, utterly unconcerned with the light as he couldn't see the brightness or anything that was cast over his face.

				The boy's trusting nature fascinated him. If he were blind he didn't think he'd be that--who knew who would take advantage of you? Then again he probably had to rely on people like him for help, so it was understandable. At his given permission he sat down next to him, finally getting a good look at his eyes. Although they were unseeing they were still beautiful. A uniqueness that was gifted only to him.<br><br>It was rather cute when his hand was held at a slightly off angle, but he said nothing about it and simply took it, redirecting it so Elias would know where he was stationed. It would be unfair to confuse him when he was already a bit shaken. With his blindness it probably meant that his hearing was increased, making the thumping music even louder.<br><br>"My name is Valerin, though you may call me Val. It's a pleasure to meet you as well." He shook his hand politely and then gently brought Elias' up so that he could lightly kiss the back of it. His physical signs would do him no good, but at least he could give him hints like this.<br><br>The way he was almost shy was something he didn't often see and it made him want to speak with him more. To his amusement and delight the strobe's lights on his pale skin made it almost seem as if he could change colors. A pretty young thing like this shouldn't be left alone though and his friends should be talked to about it. That was not his concern at the moment though.<br><br>"It seem as though you were abandoned." He said, offering up a topic of conversation if he wished to continue. It might be hard for him to simply come out and say something if they fell into silence, and although that would cute to watch him struggle, he did not want to scare him away.

				The other man seemed friendly enough, taking his hand and politely correcting it so that it was pointing the right way, allowing his body to follow and his head to turn so that he was looking at the other man. Or, facing him, at least. He kept his eyes tilted a bit closer to his lap, finding that people were often disoriented or displeased when he seemed to stare at them even though he couldn't see. That wasn't shyness, more of a courtesy. <br><br>The music was almost painfully loud, though he didn't complain, knowing that if he went out this one night his friends would mostly leave him alone until the next month, saying that he was too introverted. <br><br>Then again, when you're blind, a nightclu isn't really the best place on a Friday. <br><br>Especially at night. <br><br>He shook the other hand back, his own palms warm, handshake pleasantly firm but not overpowering. The brush of fingers on his had a sort of confidence to them, and he had a feeling that the man before him was either handsome, or thought himself to be, at least a bit. The kiss, though, to the back of his hand surprised him. <br><br>His lips parted and a soft laugh fell from them, pleased, but shy, blood making his cheekbones glow pink though it didn't appear in the lights. <br><br>"Ah, not so much abandoned as...well, I supposed forgotten, for the moment.They'll come and find me once they've had their fun. It's better than being forced to be in the middle of the crowd," Elias told the other man with a pleasant smile. "Too much movement for me to deal with. But, what about you? Are you here tonight with friends?"<br><br>Hopefully not a boyfriend. <br><br>Elias' lips quirked just a bit at the thought, a hint of a smile, thinking how ridiculous it was that the other man was showing any real interest in him. There were so many people he could be dancing with, and yet he was at a table, with a blind boy. Why? He wasn't sure that he understood. Then again, he was enjoying the company. His teeth were white, showing when he smiled a bit, obviously pleased to have a more one-on-one conversation rather than the crowd about him.

				Val smiled when Elias laughed, pleased with his reaction and that he hadn't managed to scare him off. It told him something about him too, that at the very least he didn't have any problems with homosexuals. A straight boy was more likely to react in the opposite fashion. He found it a shame though, that he averted his eyes even slightly.<br><br>"Those don't sound like very good friends to me." He commented softly so it wouldn't seem as though he were attacking his judgment.<br><br>Elias' questioning though, further pleased him. He was enjoying the conversation as well, studying and learning things about Elias that perhaps even he didn't know. Small quirks about him that made him, him. His smile, for example, was beautiful to see, even if it wasn't fully formed yet.<br><br>His interest in whom he was with was another good sign.<br><br>"I guess you could say I'm here with friends." He chuckled, considering some of his employees friends. Val valued honesty though, so he wouldn't keep his job secret for long. At the moment, however, he felt the need to offer him reprieve from the racket.<br><br>As a vampire he could filter out the noise and choose what he wished to concentrate on, leaving Elias' voice sounding more like a shout, but that didn't bother him. Elias was another story though. He must have dealt with quite a few headaches at being dragged to clubs like this, only to be abandoned.<br><br>"Would you like to move to the VIP lounge? It's quieter there and has a better atmosphere to chat in." Val didn't want him to take offense at his assumption, so he said it in a way that that would make it seem as though <em>he</em> needed the relief.

				While he didn'twant to seem eager, the offer of a quieter place to be sounded absolutely wonderful to him, somewhere where his head wouldn't pound and his ears wouldn't feel attacked. "The VIP section would be great," he said quietly, standing up slowly and lifting his head a bit as though, maybe, he could see what was in front of him.<br><br>"Do you mind if I...take your arm? I can't really, well, see..." he didnt want to assume that the other man already knew he was blind and being polite, just reaching out and latching himself to the other man seemed the wrong thing to do as well. <br><br>His dark hair slipped a bit farther out of the ponytail, brushing a sharply angled jawline that might have been delicate were he not male.<br><br>As it was, he painted a very pretty picture, with high, sloped cheekbones and a finely-formed nose, lips a bit sensual to be masculine but too tall to be a woman. <br><br>He waited for an arm to be offered to him so that he could follow the other man, not bothering to tell his friends, figuring that they could call him if they decided that they wanted to leave.<br><br>Plus, it had been so long...so long since any man had made a move.<br><br>Now that he was blind, the first reaction people had was pity, not lust. There was always the strange, odd man, who was turned on by the blindness...but this seemed like a relatively normal man who, maybe, was actually making advances towards him. <br><br>So he hoped, at least. <br><br>The little smile flickering over his lips broaded just a bit at the thought and he followed Val, slim fingers lingering where his hand had been placed, warm. "So, what's your excuse for not being on the dancefloor?" Elias asked playfully, teasing gently but flirtatiously. <br><br>His feet moved forwards carefully, fingertips a few inches from his body to brush the wall and keep his bearings while he still could, clearly having learned to cope just fine with his disability.

				Val rose when Elias did and was pleased to see his eyes again. There was really nothing wrong with them and he wondered how anyone could find them disconcerting. Perhaps they simply didn't want to be reminded of their own vacant stare, similar to Elias' but without the medical reasoning behind it.<br><br>Humans could really be such a shell of a creature sometimes.<br><br>That was not the case with Elias though, at least not in his eyes. His politeness, however not needed, was also another cuteness about him. Val would not have minded though if he had simply latched onto him. "Of course I don't mind."<br><br>Moving the chairs out of the way first, he gently took Elias' hand and curled it around his arm. Up close he was just as beautiful as he was far away, his features almost complimenting his own. His cheek bones weren't as high and he wasn't as feminine looking, but neither of those were bad qualities. In fact they only added to his appeal.<br><br>Slowly he began leading him to the lounge, watching out for chairs and rowdy dancers who barely paid attention to whom they were dancing with.<br><br>At Elias' further flirting he smiled again and noted that he could be a little more open about his come ons. It was disappointing to think that other humans couldn't see passed his disability to see what kind of person he was.<br><br>"Well," he teased, "I saw this beautiful man sitting all alone. 'A crime!' I thought to myself, and so I decided to approach him." It would be interesting to watch his reaction and see if he would blush or not.<br><br>Giving a nod to the bouncer guarding the access to the lounge they were allowed in to a large room that seemed more like a high class dinner except they served only drinks. The carpet was blue and there were blue couches that lined the walls. Tables were in the middle with chairs all around them and several strobe lights cast white lights and rainbows in a slow motion. The music was quiet but loud enough to be heard. It was one of his favorite places in his club.<br><br>He lead Elias to an unoccupied area and moved his hand to the couch arm so he knew what was there and where to sit. He didn't just want to sit him down and startle him. Once he was safely seated he joined him, turning to face him and study his reactions.

				Elias smiled, fingers taking a firm grip on the arm, keeping their steps a bit slower than a normal person might have walked, his own steps measured and careful. He could feel that the other man was being careful with him, guiding him away from bawdy dancers or chairs that had been strewn on the floor. He couldn't help but smile. <br><br>He did indeed blush, though, the smile widening to dazzling proportions for just a moment before he ducked his head with a little laugh, clearly pleased with the compliment. <br><br>Beautiful...it was a nice word to hear about himself. <br><br>He wouldn't ever know, of course, and he knew little more than his own hair color and that his milky eyes were more green than white, or their film over them was. He knew colors...the blindness hadn't developed until childhood, but what he knew of colors was limited. <br><br>He remembered them, as one remembers a childhood teddy bear, in snatches of comfort and faint memories but never more than an echo of the real thing. The sun wasn't bright to him, it was merely warmth on his skin. Just how now he couldn't feel the little lights twinkling over his skin.<br><br>"Well, that's quite nice of you. I appreciate it." His fingertips went to the couch, feeling it, settling himself and then turning towards the other man. "This is wonderful...thank you. So much better than the other room." <br><br>His sensitive ears no longer felt like they were on fire. <br><br>Now, maybe, he could relax just a little bit. <br><br>He sat with one long leg thrown over the other, crossed, head tilted towards the other man though his eyes never focused on anything, not looking at anything at all. <br><br>"Do you come to this club very often?" He asked, voice a bit quieter, more comfortable now that they were away from the noise. "Oh. Would you like a drink, or anything?" Elias offered, wondering if the other man wanted a drink or something else one might have at a club. <br><br>His cheeks glowed with a faint blush, hair falling all about his face in dark, glossy strands, eyes not peering anywhere really though he occasionally blinked that thick fringe of lashes to wet them. He was still smiling, though a bit shy still.

				He laughed at the questioning of if he came to the club often. He hardly ever left the place anymore. His workers were almost like children sometimes, calling and whining at him about how something else was broken or missing this time.<br><br>"I am actually this club's owner, so you don't have to worry about paying for the drinks. I do appreciate your offer though. It's very sweet of you." He would signal for one of his workers to bring them drinks in a moment.<br><br>Gently he raised Elias' chin and brushed his hair to the side so he wasn't hiding from him, though he knew it wasn't intentional. His hands were smooth and cool to the touch, as they always were, and he lingered there for a moment before removing his hand.<br><br>"You don't have to avert your eyes with me. Your eyes do nothing but compliment your beauty." He liked to see those he was interested in light up and truly be happy around him. It made up for all the times he was alone.<br><br>There was more he wanted to say to him but he first wished to know how he felt about him being the owner. Val didn't think it would affect anything, but humans were sometimes very strange about these things.

				"Oh...wow," his voice was soft, then, face thoughtful for a moment. "It's a very nice club," Elias added with a faint smile to let the other man know that he didn't mind him being the owner...though he was a bit nervous that he might have insulted the other man by insinuating the other area was too busy. He assumed that he hadn't, though, since the other man was sitting with him now and talking to him.<br><br>"Ah..."<br><br>Elias' voice had fled him, it seemed, when he other man tilted his face upwards by those fingers on his chin. <br><br>The hand was cool and smooth, like water, pleasant on his skin. <br><br>"Thank you. That's very kind of you."<br><br>He smiled, seeming to have that politeness melt a bit, showing a young, but genuine, young man sitting before Val. His smile showed a flash of straight white teeth before his lips covered them again uncertainly. <br><br>"If you don't mind my asking...I'm just curious...how old are you?" The hands on his chin had seemed young but he had no eyes to verify what he thought. The voice was calming, soothing, and pleasant to listen to, though. He couldn't help but sound pleased, that happiness filtering into his young voice, making it sweet as honey.

				"Thank you for the compliment." Elias wasn't one of those really strange humans then. It was wonderful that he wasn't for he would hate to have to work his way around that awkwardness. Most got nervous and censored what they said, something he didn't like. Even if they hated it he wanted to hear their honest opinions.<br><br>The flash of white in his smile made him want to see it more, and often.<br><br>"I am twenty five." Val was of course many years older than that but he didn't think Elias would be pleased to know that he was over a hundred. Being twenty five made it acceptable for him to be a business owner as well as look as young as he did.<br><br>In truth he had become a vampire at the age of twenty one, so his small lie was not all that far off.<br><br>He would let Elias offer his age if he felt comfortable with it but he would not pressure him by asking. Of course, going by looks, he was probably around the same age he appeared physically.

				Elias smiled faintly, nodding, and leant back against the couch. He tucked some hair behind his ears to make it a bit easier to hear, and then nodded when told the other man's age, offering his own easily. "Twenty one, myself. Just recently." Elias was clearly pleased about the age, glad that he was able to drink, glad that he could actually go out to clubs and enjoy himself now. Or so he told himself.<br><br>He could drink, at least. Even if he didn't like the clubs.<br><br>"Twenty five is pretty young to own a club this nice. You must be quite the business man."<br><br>His hands came out, again, one hand gently touching the other man's hand shyly, fingertips brushing the skin there and then smiling again contentedly, drawing his hand back with a faint blush. <br><br>It was nice to have someone to flirt with, to talk with, someone who wasn't one of his high school friends who he had tutored so they wouldn't fail school, the friends who took him out drinking and forgot him. Often.<br><br>Naturally, they meant no harm, but weren't the best friends.<br><br>He just didn't really fit into their little group, and it was more of a highschool bond that had never really died. They still tried to make him have fun, and they still failed to see that he couldn't see anything.<br><br>He liked this man...the man confident enough to approach him and start flirting with him. His attraction was clear, on the blush in his cheeks, to his smile.<br><br>The casual but intimate touch of his hand made it clear as well.

				It was almost ironic that Elias was the same age as he was physically. Still at that time of his life where he's trying to figure out what to do and how he's going to make it in the world. Being blind must make it all the harder for him, but he seemed to be doing well.<br><br>"Not really, I just happened to pay attention in college. Imagine that." Well, he had at least one of the times he had went. It was amazing what one would do in attempts to cure boredom. He had forgotten just how many degrees or almost-degrees he had, but it didn't really matter. He'd fake the certificates anyway.<br><br>Val was pleasantly surprised at his touch and caught his retreating hand, bringing it back so he could hold it. The blush on Elias' cheeks was a frequent occurrence now and Val enjoyed bringing it. It had been a while since he had been with anyone like him.<br><br>"Would you like that drink you offered?" Waving over the bartender, something only he had the privileged to do, he waited to hear what Elias wanted. The drinks didn't do anything for him, needing a lot for him to get drunk, but other than that they just sat in his stomach until he burned them off. The taste of it didn't really matter. Nothing but blood ever quenched his thirst.<br><br>"We have non-alcoholic beverages as well." He offered. He wasn't trying to get him drunk or pressure him into drinking. If he needed it, Val would order a Shirley Temple to make him more comfortable with his choice.

				"I'd like a martini, please." Elias' hand twitchd momentarily when it was pulled back and held, making him smile just a bit broader, clearly enjoying the attention that he was getting. He liked knowing that someone was looking out for him. Or, flirting, at least. <br><br>His cheeks were pink, dark hair sliding against that finely honed face, skin so white except for the faint rosy touch where his blush spread. <br><br>He wondered what Val looked like.<br><br>He wasn't too old, he knew, but he knew little else other than that. Other than the feel of that hand on his own. He took a sip of the martini when it was brought, smiling, "You have a good bartender."<br><br>He had no idea that the other man was dangerous.<br><br>All he knew, now, was that he was with the first man in a long time who had been attracted enough to him to actually make an effort and flirt with him. He truly did appreciate it. Appreciate the gesture, and the way that the other man took and help his hand.<br><br>"Tell me more about yourself. What do you like to do, when you're not in the club?" Those slim fingers gently tightened, pleasantly, soft and smooth in the other man's hand. He scooted a bit closer, his interest clear, though his eyes tilted away once again.<br><br>Again, he was too nervous to look at the other man, or to train those unseeing eyes upon him once again.

				"Nothing for me." He felt confident that that wouldn't deter Elias from drinking his own drink. He was stronger than he looked and acted. It was a good quality to have.<br><br>Unlike most mythical vampires, Val was not extremely pale or a startling stark white. His skin was a light peach color with a honeyed glow to it, the same as it had been when he was still alive. Normally black hair didn't go with that skin tone but Val somehow managed to make it work and look good. Or perhaps it was simply his vampire charms that were ensnaring their senses.<br><br>When the bar tender returned he thanked him and handed Elias his drink, telling him where it was so he could easy find it without spilling. Elias seemed to be enjoying himself. Enough for him to ask more about him.<br><br>"I'm always here at night, or on the second floor sleeping. I sleep most of the day, but when I occasionally do get out I enjoy simply walking and watching the people. For activities...I enjoy vampire movies. They always entertain me." Val was amused by how humans portrayed vampire in movies, anything from a deformed creature to sex on legs. Most of them were completely off, and while it was insulting it was also damn funny.<br><br>He continued smiling as Elias slowly worked his way closer to him. It was cute, but there was no reason he couldn't be bold. If he wanted to flirt then Val would return the affection ten-fold. Again tilting his chin toward he leaned closer and muttered, "I hope you don't mind." Before he captured Elias in a light kiss.

				Even though it wasn't the best neighborhood, having a piece of property in a place like this was lucrative if not downright profitable. He smiled faintly as he realized that the other man lived and worked in this very club, and couldn't help but like the idea. It seemed so convenient, and given how big the club was, it must have been a very large apartment on the top floor. <br><br>"Vampire movies..." Elias said softly, smiling, "I like them as well, I guess. The actors always have very nice voices." He had never seen one, though, but what he had heard sounded good.<br><br>The voices tended to be pleasant to listen to.<br><br>He never watched gory movies...there wasn't enough dialogue to actually listen to,it was always just the squelching sound of fake blood and screaming. Not pleasant to listen to. <br><br>What was pleasant, though, was...that tilt of his chin forwards. Could the other man really be - ah, yes.<br><br>There was the faint brush of lips on his own, and like electricity hitting a weather-vane, it was as though a shock had travelled down Elias' spine. "No," he murmured softly, "I don't mind at all."<br><br>He sounded just a bit breathless, leaning forwards for one more brief kiss before taking a sip of his drink, "This is turning out to be a wonderful night," he said with a quiet smile, unable not to beam knowing that another had actually kissed him. <br><br>He swallowed the sip of his drink, then looked at the other man once more, his thigh pressed against the other man's, "Once more. Kiss me again, please..." Elias whispered, head tilting forwards so that he could reach for a kiss, without bumping his head into Val's.

				Elias had accepted his kiss and had even given him another. It was turning out to be a very pleasant night indeed. His lips had been soft against his own and he found himself wanting to taste them again, the martini adding onto the already exotic flavor.<br><br>It was hard to believe that such a simple thing could give Elias so much pleasure but there was no denying how happy he was at that moment. Val wanted him to keep that expression. He had a feeling that he didn't use it too often anymore.<br><br>When he was asked to kiss him again he was unable to deny his request and had no desire to do so.<br><br>"Of course. And many times more, I hope." He kissed him again, firmer this time, and lasting longer than their last. His hand lightly squeezed Elias' and his thumb swept over the back, caressing him. Val wasn't sure how far he would want him to go, but he would let him set the pace. He was in no hurry after all; He had all the time in the world.<br><br>Men like Elias needed and deserved to be romanced.

				Elias was utterly thrilled, heartbeat pounding in his throat, eyes shutting at the second tender kiss after those soft words that pleased him so much. He tasted faintly of cherries and something deeper, almost cold, a taste that was utterly his. Very few people had gotten close enough to those lips to touch them. <br><br>"You taste wonderful..." Elias whispered, slowly parting his lips, letting his mouth leisurely explore the one before him, enjoying the taste of the vampire without becoming ravenous or whorish. He was just enjoying him.<br><br>Taking his time to revel in that moment.<br><br>His own hand tightened on the other man's, one hand tentatively sliding up the man's thigh, then chest, slowly coming up to gently cup his cheek. The touch was more of an exploring one than an invasive one.<br><br>He learned, and saw, with his fingertips.<br><br>Each picture that formed in his mind was painted by each ridge, eash muscle his fingertips glided over, running over the fine fabric of the shirt until they rested on the other man's cheek tenderly. <br><br>"You feel very handsome," he murmured with a shy smile.<br><br>He would never know, but the man before him was handsome, was nice to touch and fun to having kissing him.

				He could quickly become addicted to that taste, he knew. Whenever he actually showed interest in someone he put everything into that relationship. His lovers weren't food to him, not unless they wanted to be. Some had a kink of being bitten hard, never noticing his fangs or the loss of blood.<br><br>"As do you." He replied, a thrill running through him at his initiative. His tongue went out to meet Elias' without hesitation, letting him explore all he wanted. It was a bit of a turn on for him to have his lovers or interest to take the initiative and lead, though he preferred to be on top.<br><br>He was immediately curious as to what Elias' would do with that explorative hand, having no plans to stop him.<br><br>"Thank you for the compliment, but I don't think that the clothes give an accurate representation." He teased and flirted. There was no pressure in his words and he was perfectly fine to part ways at this moment, if only a promise was given that he'd see him again.

				Elias moaned softly, lips parting to invite the other man to explore him as well, brushing a hand up over the other man's body. He smiled faintly at the comment that the clothes didn't give an accurate representation, blushing slightly but nodding, "I guess you're right about that. I suppose it means that I'll have to get you out of them, then..."<br><br>He smile faintly, lips finding Val's once again, tasting and exploring until his cellphone began to ring. He frowned faintly and pulled it out, "Sorry..." he murmured softly before flipping it open.<br><br>It was his friends, wondering where he was, ready to leave.<br><br>"I'll..." Elias' eyes tilted towards Val inquisitively, though he couldn't actually see him, a movement he had done often before he became blind, a vestigial motion he had never really gotten rid of.<br><br>"It's...fine, I'll catch up with you guys later. No, really. Really, I've got it. I'll just call a cab."<br><br>There was some crowing that Elias' must have found a girl to bed - his friends didn't know he was gay and never would have accepted it - and then he hung up and turned back to he other man. <br><br>"Now," Elias all but purred as his ran his hands over Val's front once more, exploring, feeling, touching the other man's body, "Where were we?" There was a faint smile lingering on those full lips, and he leant in for another breat-stealing kiss, wanting more contact with the other man.

				Val, of course, wouldn't say no to him or turn him down, but he couldn't help but worry that he was going too far. Elias could handle his own decisions though and he had to remind himself that just because he was human didn't mean that he had to coddle him. Sometimes, being as old as he was, humans all seemed like children to him.<br><br>If that was the case then that made him a pedophile.<br><br>The kissing was nice but he couldn't help but feel a bit of annoyance at the cell phone's ring. Those mobile devices were always unnecessarily loud and he found himself having to hold his at least a foot away from his ear to even be able to stand it. That being said he was able to hear Elias' conversation in full.<br><br>Val move in to his touches after he hung up, glad that he had decided to stay. His own hand started on Elias' knee and ended up on his hips, completing his prompted kiss with equal passion. During a pause in between he couldn't help but make comment.<br><br>"I believe you were getting this 'girl' into bed." He teased, meaning no harm by it and kissing him again. Though if they moved any closer his own bartenders might have to break them up. <br><br>Val didn't allow for sexual activities to take place in his club.<br><br>"My club is closing soon. Regretfully I have make sure everything runs smoothly." He was far from dismissing Elias, but he couldn't skirt on his duties. Seeing as how he lived here he was the only one who had a key to the place and was able to lock up. Robbery was not something he would tolerate.<br><br>"If you'd like you may wait here...or if you'd prefer you can explore the second floor." Val didn't want him to leave, but if that's what he wanted then he'd give him a ride home.

				Elias hadn't had the touch of another man on his body for so long...for so very, very long. He wanted it, wanted to feel hands exploring him, wanted to learn what a lover looked like through his fingertips. He wondered what color the other man's skin was, what color his hair, his eyes were. He knew almost nothing about him. <br><br>He flushed, though, when told that he was getting the 'girl' into bed. "Sorry about that..." he laughed but the hands had slid to his hips and another kiss quieted him briefly until the other man pulled away.<br><br>"Oh," he said with a nod, "I'll just stay here, then."<br><br>He could finish his drink and then follow the other man upstairs. Being alone in a foreign apartment was always nerve-wracking. He was always scared that he would break something or do something he shouldn't. <br><br>He could never tell if he was about to knock something over until it was too late, especially with vases, so he would choose to finish his martini.<br><br>"I'll wait here for you and when you're done, you can come back and get me." Elias told the other man with a friendly, open smile, still flushed with his hair sliding down about his face, having long ago escaped the ponytail. <br><br>He was comfortable in this chair, excited to meet the other man in a more physical way, to get to know him. He sat back against the couch, taking another sip, mind pleasantly light from the liquor moving through his body, a combination of his earlier drink sand this one.

				"I hope that you will still be waiting." Taking his free hand he kissed the back of it again and then gently removed the all but lost hair tie, slipping it over his wrist. His hand lingered for a moment before setting Elias' back on his lap, making his footsteps louder so that he would know he was leaving.<br><br>Speaking first with the bartender he let him know that if he shooed Elias' out of there that he might just conveniently lose the man's paycheck.

				Elias stayed, patiently, never having been bored too easily. Afterall, he couldn't see, so he had grown increasingly used to sitting with his own thoughts for company. As the people left and the music quieted, the club's partygoers leaving, he finished off his drink and set down the glass, letting the bartender take it from his table.

He wanted to enjoy something carnal, since it had been so long, as most people immediately classified him as disabled in their minds and wanted nothing to do with him.

				The time seemed to drag by, which was why his employees were currently annoyed with him. Wanting to get things done he worked around them, counting inventory on his own. His memory was excellent and remembered exactly how much they had of what before opening. Since some last rounds were still being poured, soon coming to a stop, he added them in as well.<br><br>As much of an annoyance as he was at the moment he could tell that they were all glad that they'd be able to get out of their earlier because of it. As the bartenders cleaned up their areas, and the bouncers herded the last stragglers, he went and quickly finished the other inventory as well.<br><br>Normally Val would take his time with such things but tonight he was impatient. Having Elias in his arms was so much more appealing than work was. It had been a while since he had taken a lover and he missed the touch of flesh and the feeling of having a warm body against him.<br><br>Eventually though, the club was acceptable and he sent his employees home. Anything not in place he could correct tomorrow before reopening.<br><br>Locking the doors and the chains that held them shut, he turned off all the lights, not needing them as a vampire. Elias wouldn't notice the change, otherwise he wouldn't have done it, and within a few seconds he had moved from the front of the bar back to the VIP lounge, walking normally as he came upon Elias.<br><br>"I apologize for the wait. I hope that you weren't too bored without me." Taking his hand he waited for him to stand before he moved it back to his arm, right above the elbow as he kept his forearm raised. Walking at an even pace he started leading him to the staircase.

				Elias shook his head, "No, the wait was fine." The man had taken a bit longer than he had thought he would to come back, but that was fine, as he had had a good drink in hand and a comfortable couch to sit on. Things could easily have been worse. He ran his fingers back through his hair and then settled against the couch for a few moments, getting up when helped up, taking the other man's arm.<br><br>His blindness was entirely clear - he had no need for light - feet shuffling carefully through the darkness so he wouldn't bump into anything. He started on the stairs when they got to them.<br><br>He counted, in his head, how many steps there were.<br><br>When he got to the top his foot raised for another step, and, not finding it, came down carefully. He was clearly used to this, and didn't stumble once, though the grip he had on the other man's arm certainly helped him with that. <br><br>His excitement would have been clear to the vampire - pulse fluttering anxiously in his neck under his thin, pale skin, cheeks flushe, a smile tracing the corners of his mouth and refusing to fall.<br><br>He wanted to be...touched.<br><br>When they got to the top of the stairs, he turned, pressing his lips against the other man's jawline. He pressed a few slow, soft kisses there before finding his lips, gently caressing them with his own. "Mmm..." the sound trailed from his throat, rich, warm, and utterly contented. His body, though, wanted even more.

				Elias' excitement only added onto his own and he no longer had any doubts over whether or not this was what he wanted. It was obvious to him now and his scent portrayed those emotions perfectly. Inhaling it, he wanted nothing more than to add sex and arousal to it.<br><br>When they reached the top of the stairs Elias beat him to the first move, but he wasn't at all disappointed, wrapping his arms around him and encouraging the behavior.<br><br>Deepening the kiss for a moment he growled after Elias' moan, wanting to pull more of them from him in all different octaves. Val enjoyed hearing his lover's pleasure and would do whatever he needed to in order to bring it out of them.<br><br>Val was cruel though.<br><br>At times his foreplay lasted longer than his lover would like, forcing them to beg before he moved on. Having that power over them turned him on as much as drinking their blood did. He craved and demanded it.<br><br>"I believe you are wearing far too much clothing." Val purred into his ear in a deep, rich voice.<br><br>With small kissed and touches he slowly worked him back the long distance it took to get to his bed, letting it hit the back of Elias' knees before he pushed him down on it.

				Elias allowed himself to be led back with kisses and touches, whimpering softly when that deep voice purred in his ear, loving the way that it sent a shiver down his spine. Yes, this man would dominate him, would make him feel things that he had missed for so very, very long. He couldn't wait to feel hands slipping over his skin, gripping him, holding him close and tight. <br><br>"Ah..." his knees hit the back of the bed and he dropped to it, catching himself with his hands before laying back, allowing his shoes and socks to be removed, hair spreading out behind him like a dark corona.<br><br>He wondered what color the sheets were. <br><br>The hand riding up under his shirt brought a moan to his lips, a soft, quiet, contented sound. His fingers reached to the hem of Val's shirt, tugging at it clumsily, letting out a soft sound of protest when he had trouble getting it off. Being blind usually didn't bother him, but he wanted to feel <em>skin</em>, and he couldn't with that shirt on.<br><br>His own stomach was flat, slim chest warm to the touch, biting his bottom lip as he sat up a bit with his muscles moving under Val's hand for another hard, deep kiss, moaning quietly.<br><br>What was easier to remove were his own pants, beginning to unbuckle and unzip, pushing at them impatiently to slip them, along with the black cotton boxers, over his slim hips.

His imperfections having been taken away as he was turned, leaving him with a finely sculpted body, strong but not overly musculature.<br><br>As Elias' sat up he took the moment to rid himself of his shirt before helping him with his.

				Elias' skin was shockingly unmarked for a human's, white and smooth and utterly unblemished except for a faint scar that curved around his back on the right side and ended by his hip, just above his groin, an injury he had sustained when he was younger but was now white and smooth as some scars can grow to be over&nbsp; the years. <br><br>His breath came in soft pants, eyes shut now, hiding that milky green that couldn't see anything, unable to see even his own eyelashes, slim fingers knotting in the bedding beneath him momentarily. <br><br>He scooted back, body now entirely bare, revealing the full expanse of that smooth skin and the slim neck, head pillowed on a thick bed of glossy black hair. "Val..."<br><br>His breath came in a soft pant, utterly engrossed with pleasure, trying to calm himself a bit. <br><br>He gasped when their hips touched, his member achingly hard, laying flat on his stomach. "Val," he panted softly, "Val, more, please..." He needed more touches, more...he wanted sex, he wanted to be penetrated, to be dominated. He was always a bit scared of it, of putting trust in his partner when he couldn't see, but Val had been trustworthy so far. <br><br>He touched Val's skin, running a hand up his front, lips parting in ecstasy as he felt the mucles, the skin there, stroking slowly, moving to his cheek, drawing him forwards for another kiss.

				Val could sense Elias' impatience, but he wouldn't give up on teasing him entirely. Letting himself be pulled into the kiss, he raised himself back to all fours, separating their contact.

				Each little groan and cry went strait to this cock. Elias was so responsive that it made him want to torment him all the more.

With his lips wrapped around his teeth, and his hands keeping Elias' hips still, he slowly started to bob his head, his tongue working skillfully.<br><br>Val was confident in his ability to bring Elias back to the peak again after he came and was looking forward to swallowing him down.

It was overwhelming, like he was being eaten up by fire, and soon enough he felt that tongue start to work and the other man bobbing over him...<br><br>His body arched and he came, orgasm rushing over him like a tidal wave, screaming Val's name, his responses all driven by Val, his entire body so much more sensitive because of his blindness.<br><br>He was trembling slightly, with pleasure, eyes open now but still as vacant as ever, dark lashes fluttering about them as he panted, "Val, G-God..."

				That lose of control was just as beautiful as Elias himself, his body acting instinctively to the pleasure surrounding him. Val enjoyed seeing his lovers in situations like this.

Sweat gleamed off of his pale skin, only illuminated by the power lights of the electronics, casting him in a greenish glow.

It lasted only a moment but it was enough to keep him calm.<br><br>While Elias was distracted and recovering, he moved to the side of the bed and retrieved lubricant and a condom from the upper most drawer.

				Breathlessly, Elias accepted everything that was given to him, panting through the pleasure, trying to get used to the feeling of the other man touching him. It was...unbelievable. It had been so long, and Val was so good, tearing down Elias' natural defenses and rendering him a victim to lust, actually...trusting Val not to hurt him. <br><br>His eyes blinked a few times to wet them, then whimpered into the kiss, submitting to Val as he tasted himself on the other man's lips. He made the kiss last longer than it would have, tasting himself, moaning at the dirtiness and lustfulness of the moment. <br><br>He didn't even think about a condom but was glad that Val had. <br><br>He was trembling faintly, and held onto Val as the other man lay at his side, crying out, lips parting and head tossed back, dark hair sliding over the pillows a a nipple was drawn into his mouth. <br><br>His legs parted obediently, holding on tightly to Val, feeling him, so much more open than most lovers were, having to learn everything through touch, through trust. <br><br>His body had a thin layer of sweat, making him glow in the little light there was in the room, clutching Val against his body.

				Elias was so responsive. Even the slightest touch had him moaning an crying out. It was a nice change of pace from the stoicism that humans usually tried to convey, as though it was weak to show emotions. Val though that that instead was what made them strong.<br><br>Although it may be cruel to think, if being blind is what allowed him to become so open like this then he was glad that he was.<br><br>Once Elias was slick he slowly pressed a finger into him. It had been a while since he had been with anyone, as he could tell by the way he reacted to his affection and interest, so Val would take his time to make sure it was as painless as possibly.<br><br>"You really are beautiful, Elias."

He wanted the chance to forget that he was blind.<br><br>For, with sex, one could learn through touch and smell and taste and never use eyes.

				The soft, slow thrusting coupled with that heavy kiss had him crying out, whimpering in pleasure.

				At Elias' touch against his skin, Val wondered when it would be time for him to explore his body, truly seeing him for the first time. It was a heady feeling, the knowledge that Elias would know his body so well that he could see him without sight. He was looking forward to it.<br><br>"Of course you can. I'm not going to kick you out after that." It would be cruel to force him to leave at the moment.

His hands ocasionally flickered over the other man's skin, slowly seeing with his fingertips.<br><br>The movement slowed, then stopped, as he fell fast asleep within Val's arms.

				It was a while before Val awoken, having become unused to having a human lover beside him. It was admittedly better than waking up alone though, and he was amazed that Elias had yet to leave the bed. He wouldn't have minded if he had broken anything if he had gotten up.<br><br>"You must be craving the bathroom and food by now." He chuckled lightly. There was little food in his refrigerator, but he did keep some for his employees.<br><br>Val liked to be prepared for the unexpected, and now it was paying off.<br><br>"Did you sleep well?" He asked, moving back slightly so that he could kiss him good morning. He'd have to return Elias home soon, but until then he would continue to pamper him and shower him with affection.<br><br>It was one of his favorite things to do.

				"A little bit," Elias murmured, smiling, "Maybe you can show me where the bathroom is?" It had been such a long time since he had wandered, alone, through a house he didn't know. He rarely did it. He was so scared that he would break something priceless that he did his best to stay in place. <br><br>"Food would be good, too..." Just then, his stomach grumbled loudly, and he laughed quietly, "Yeah, food would be good." Val's arms were so comforting around his slim frame that he didn't want to leave. <br><br>He should be getting back to his apartment, though. <br><br>After a series of rather pulp-fiction-esque short stories, he had gotten signed to a company and was in the process of writing a book, one that was just about finished. <br><br>It gave him the freedom to work from home, and being blind, that was absolutely ideal. He needed that sort of freedom. <br><br>"Mmm. Maybe," he asked uncertainly, "We could do this again? I had an incredible time last night..."

				"Yes, though maybe next time I can treat you to a real date." Val kissed him again to assure him that, yes, that was what he wanted.<br><br>Before that, there was the matter of getting his lover cleaned up and fed. They hadn't been in the frame of mind to do it last night and right now Elias was probably feeling rather sticky and dirty, as was Val.<br><br>"First things first though, the bathroom and then food." Unwrapping himself from Elias, he sat at the edge of the bed and helped him up before leading him to the bathroom in the way he had done last night.<br><br>The bathroom was pretty large for this floor, more than enough for several people to be comfortable in, and Val often let his employees use it when they needed to. There was no reason for one person to need this all to himself, but it wasn't as though he were going to complain. It was just an unnecessary bonus given by owning the club downstairs.<br><br>Val gave Elias a detailed description of what the bathroom was like so that he'd find it easier to get around on his own. Instead of a bathroom, perhaps he should call it a locker room instead. Whatever had been in this building before had required only one of them on the first and one on the second floor (the first he had divided in two for the men and woman's bathrooms). <br><br>There were actually stalls for the toilets and showers, and Val had had to have construction workers come in to even have a bathtub in here. With all the work it took it made him wonder if he should have even bothered.<br><br>"Try not to get lost in here." He joked, laughing lightly, even though it was an actual possibility.

				Elias couldn't help but smile. "A real date would be great." Elias could only hope that it wouldn't involve eating out. That was something he hated to do more than he could possibly say...eating out was embarassing and difficult, and he preferred to eat alone, if it was anything other than a fruit he could hold in his hand and bite into. Even today, when they would get food, he would probably stick to foods that didn't involve forks or spoons or knives. <br><br>Elias' hand draped comfortably over Val's arm as they made their way towards the bathroom. He listened to the description, doing his best to remember where everything was, not letting go of Val. <br><br>He found his way to a stall and shut the door.<br><br>Going to the bathroom was relatively easy, though when he came out, it was finding the shower that was harder. "Shower or bath?" Elias asked quietly, "And do you want to take one together?"<br><br>His skin felt sticky and gross, rough where the seed had dried in flaking patches, body covered in sweat from last night. He wanted to get clean...and to feel Val's clean body against his, that cool body. <br><br>"You're always so cool," he murmured quietly, wrapping a hand around Val's once more, feeling that cool skin.

				"Either would fit us comfortably." Val though about it for a moment. While a bath would be nice he wasn't sure he could keep his hands to himself. The same went with the shower, but even so it was less of a temptation. He didn't even consider taking them separately.<br><br>The mentioning of his temperature reminded him that he had to explain that, as well as some of his other oddities. It annoyed him to lie, so he would try to keep as close to the truth as he could without actually revealing it.<br><br>"I naturally have a low body temperature. Is the shower alright with you?" Val gently changed the subject and led him to one of the showers, warning him of the slight ledge he had to step over to get in. One of the things he hated about these locker rooms was cleaning the damn things. They were so big it took forever, but he wasn't going to leave them dirty.<br><br>Standing in front of Elias, he turned on the shower and took the brunt of the spray until he was sure it was at the right temperature. He didn't want to startle him with too hot or too cold water, and once it was just right he pulled him into it.

				Elias stood quietly while the other man decided on the shower, thinking it slightly odd that he had a low body temperature, letting it slip from his mind as quickly as it had entered. Elias was about as sensitive to danger as an ember was to heat. One would have thought that he would have been more careful, but...unless there was a direct threat to his life in progress, he had a tendency not to notice anything dangerous, in the slightest. <br><br>"Shower is fine."<br><br>Elias slipped into the shower next to the other man and leant against him, smiling when the water was carefully adjusted, slipping into the water and letting it warm his skin. <br><br>He was careful not to let it spray him in the face.<br><br>His arms wound around the other man's body and he curled against him contentedly, kissing Val's shoulder with a soft smile, "Ah."<br><br>He ran his hands over his body, "Feels so good to have my skin clean..." <br><br>It certainly did. It was utterly relieving to feel his skin free of flakes, or dirt, or anything else equally unpleasant. Now it was just a rather damp Elias. He was pressed against Val's body and smiled shyly. <br><br>His eyes were slightly sore - he rubbed them momentarily - then he leant back into the water and let it soak into his thick and dark hair.

				"It feels good to watch you become clean." He laughed, joking. Wrapping an arm around Elias he kept him there, making sure the both of them got clean. Even though he didn't need to and his lovers could take care of themselves, Val always liked being the one to take care of them.<br><br>It didn't mean that he'd do everything for them, not unless they needed it, but the small things like this were what he enjoyed. Cooking was another one of those things. As a vampire he didn't taste things the same, some things like fruits and vegetables tasting awful to him, so he had had to learn by trial and error, using his lovers as guinea pigs.<br><br>He was quite good at it now though and didn't have to worry about making Elias eat something horrible because he was too nice to say anything about it.<br><br>Speaking of which, he had no idea what the man liked and didn't like.<br><br>"What would you like for breakfast?" Val couldn't keep his eyes from darting over Elias' wet skin, being reminded how sensitive and responsive he was.

				Elias laughed pleasantly as well, "Well, thanks. Hopefully you'll get to see it fairly often." He wanted to start something up with that powerful body behind his, still rather cool even in the warm water. He wanted to be lustful and run his hands down Val's body and sink to his knees in front of him, taking that thick length into his mouth - his member began to swell with life and he flushed, pushing the thought heavily from his mind. <br><br>"Anything, really. I'm not very picky. Uhm...well, something solid would be nice. Y'know, fruit, or hard-boiled eggs. Those would probably be best." Fingerfoods. <br><br>He turned to face Val and kissed him, slowly, pressed against him. <br><br>"What do <em>you</em> want for breakfast?" Elias' attempt to be sultry and sensual instead made him laugh softly, playfully, kissing the other man's collarbone gently after he awkardly bumped his nose against the other man's shoulder.

				At the first signs of Elias' lust and arousal, Val could smell it before he even started to react physically. It was almost ironic given the thoughts he had been having right before, and he didn't mind at all taking care of it for him.<br><br>Elias' advances were were move and he chuckled as he missed and bumped into him, finding it cute. Moving his other arm around him as well he pressed back and trapped him in a kiss for a moment before responding to his question.<br><br>"Well, it seems I have a nice, tasty Elias right here, so what more could I ask for?" <br><br>Kissing him again he took that member trapped between them and gave it a few strokes to make clear what he was talking about.

What he felt most, though, was the hand wrapping around his member and then stroking.<br><br>"Ah...Val..."<br><br>His hands began wandering the other man's body, lips slipping along the slick neck, and shoulder, moving to nibble gently at Val's collarbone before bending a bit. <br><br>His hand, the one not lingering at Val's hip, reached out and slowly stroked up and down Val's length, memorizing the size and shape and weight.<br><br>Then he took the length, tentatively, into his own hand.<br><br>"Mmm..."

				Val frowned at his words, not liking the inferences he got from them. He ignored most of those feeling though for they were useless in the long run and not worth moping over. There were better things for him to be doing at the moment.<br><br>"You shouldn't put yourself down like that. You really are very attractive." Even in ignoring it, his insinuations still hurt a bit. <em>He thinks himself so undesirable that only a vampire would approach him? What does that say about me?</em><br><br>"Perhaps it would have better for me to have not shattered that delusion." Val wanted Elias, but not if he didn't want him in return. The poor boy was already scared and shaken. Elias was scared of him. It wasn't a good feeling to have.

				"Thank you. It's just..." Elias let out a soft sigh, rubbing at his eyes which he was now aware were sore, aching from the back to the front. He rubbed at them hard and then let his hands drift down, pillowing his head on Val's shoulder, taking in a deep breath, smelling his skin, touching him. Maybe Val wasn't human, but...he had approached him, and made him feel wonderful. What was a pair of fangs to that? He had liked being bitten, anyways.<br><br>"It's not so much you, as...what else is out there? What else is there that I don't know exists?" Elias swallowed hard and then leant back against Val, shrugging, "I...if you want, I mean...I want to keep seeing you. I...rather like you, really."<br><br>He nodded, firmly, then. <br><br>His mind was made up. Whether or not they were exactly a conventional couple, he wanted to keep seeing him, wanted to keep exploring the things he didn't know. "I'm sorry that this is so difficult for me. I'm trying, though. It's just...hard to imagine that there could be so many things that I'm ignorant to."

				He understood Elias' dilemma, having gone through something similar when he had been turned. It was a terrifying feeling he wished that he didn't have to feel, but there was no helping it now. The only thing he could do was offer his protection and hope that it was enough to allay his fears.<br><br>"There are many creatures out there, but I will protect you from them. You don't need to worry. No one will harm you while I live." Kissing the top of his head lightly he enjoyed the warmth that Elias brought him.<br><br>"I like you too and I want to keep seeing you." He smiled a bit a that and then continued, hoping to make him feel better by giving him someone to relate to. "It was hard for me too at first, but it gets easier over time. Most humans remain ignorant their whole lives."<br><br>Val chuckled softly. "Sometimes I wish I had remained ignorant."<br><br>That wasn't really what was occupying his mind at the moment though. "Are your eyes alright?" He was a bit worried as to how he kept rubbing them. Even though he was blind it probably wasn't good to keep doing that.

				Elias stayed curled against the other man, pressed up against his body firmly, not wanting to leave the warm and safe embrace. He believed, though he didn't know why, that Val could keep him safe. Plus, he had gone his whole life without ever encountering something paranormal, so he figured that Val could be the exception to that rule and that he wouldn't have to deal with anything else. <br><br>"Good..." he murmured, hearing that Val wanted to see him. A slow smile curved over his lips and he kissed Val's shoulder comfortably, laying against him with a little smile as the water beat down around them.<br><br>"My eyes are fine..."<br><br>Elias gave them one last good, hard rub, sighing faintly. "Just sore. Itchy. It's hard to explain. Not much to do about it, though. It comes and goes..." Elias shrugged rather apathetically.<br><br>It was one of the things he had accepted about his life.<br><br>"How about food now?" Elias asked, softly, smiling, "All this heavy talk is making me hungry."

				Val nearly breathed a sigh of relief as Elias relaxed, not wanting to run away from him. He didn't need the air but some human habits were just hard to break, especially when you continued to live among humans even as another species.<br><br>It was also a comforting feeling to know that he trusted him to protect and take care of him. Val sincerely hoped that he wouldn't have to deal with any other creatures that would cause him further distress.<br><br>"Are you sure?" It seemed a bit odd that his eyes would be bothering him while being blind. Perhaps they were still trying work and see. It seemed to happen often enough that he wasn't worried about it though. Still, Val couldn't help but wonder whether or not he could help him. He didn't want to turn him but even he didn't know the full extent of what vampire blood could do.<br><br>"Of course. I'd be glad to cook for you--and don't worry--I still know how." Though he'd rather not try anything he cooked he had been assured that it was decent enough for human consumption.<br><br>Reaching behind them he turned off the shower and helped Elias out, retrieving a towel for him and himself before drying off. Once he was done with that he'd lead him back to his bed so they could get dressed. Then he'd work on breakfast.

				Elias nodded, assuring the other man that it was fine, that his eyes were alright. For him, it was normal...he had heard multiple reasons for it. Phantom pains, his eyes trying to see again, his eyes rejecting the fever that had ravaged his body as a child and might still be lingering. All in all, the doctors couldn't really figure what was wrong, and no one had never figured it to be a big problem minus the frustrating pain.<br><br>"Oh, good. I guess you don't eat, though..." he dried off and then trailed after the other man, managing to find his clothes and pull them on, smoothing them down. They still smelled faintly of his cologne, long since washed off, and a bit like Val.<br><br>He smiled a bit and then tugged on his T-Shirt.<br><br>The jacket he would leave for later. He waited to be taken by the hand and led again, though he rather disliked being in new places. It was difficult for him, though with Val being so patient, he was willing to explore the apartment and get used to it.

				Not eating made it awkward at times when on dates, but he had managed to get around it in the past. It had helped that he couldn't be with his lovers for long before they started noticing his lack of aging. It saddened him, but it was something that had to be done.<br><br>Val didn't want to think about what might happen with he and Elias once he had to move again. That was a ways away anyway.<br><br>"I'd still be glad to sit with you and watch you eat. I like to see people enjoying my food." Although it was a bit cruel, he thought it would be cute if Elias had trouble eating. Or maybe he just wanted to help him clean up again if he made a mess.<br><br>Putting his clothes from last night away he brought out new ones and slipped them on. They were light blue jeans this time, although he still stuck with black when it came to the t-shirt he pulled out. Val didn't feel he needed to wear elaborate things since he already drew too much attention to himself by just looking the way he did.<br><br>"I'm sorry, I should give you a tour. On that note though, it doesn't matter if you happen to break anything. Everything here is replaceable but you, so that's the only thing you need to watch out for." Val put his hand around his arm again and gently kissed his cheek before starting his little tour. He estimated how many feet was between each object that would get in his way and told him that as well as where they were relative to each other. Taking it slowly he lead him around, letting him learn it first hand. He didn't expect him to be able to memorize it so soon, but at least now he'd be able to move around with more confidence.

				"Alright...just, can you make something that's not too...well, difficult?" Elias didn't like having to ask such things, as evidenced by the faint frown tracing his lips, "Finger food is easiest...food that I have to cut is...difficult, really. Stuff with a lot of sauce is, as well...honestly, I'm fine with just an apple..." he mumbled quietly.<br><br>Elias never ate with other people.<br><br>Ever.<br><br>With his friends, he always ate before he saw them, and with his family he tried to eat after them though he would eat around his mother and father. None of his other family members, though, as it embarassed him.<br><br>Eating was probably the most difficult thing for him.<br><br>Following the other man around the apartment, he took in what he was told, remembering everything he could. Mostly the general outlines of the rooms, so at least he would know which way to go.<br><br>He held onto Val, smiling at the kiss to his cheek, highly appreciative of how kind he was when it came to his blindness.

				"And that concludes our little tour of the second floor, here in the kitchen." It wasn't a 'little' tour by far, it being the same size as his club downstairs, but Val didn't have many things he really valued so it was rather spacious.<br><br>Placing Elias' hand on the back of a chair at the table, he moved to the fridge to see what he had, finally addressing his earlier comments. He had been wanting to say something then, but figured it was better to wait a bit so there wasn't a debate while he showed him around.<br><br>"You don't have to worry about how you look eating. I promise I won't make fun of you." To him it was a bit odd that eating in front of someone, especially when it wasn't easy food, was hard for him. He supposed even with however long he had been blind that he was still learning how to cope and deal with it.<br><br>"As for fruits and such, I'm afraid I don't have any. It spoils too quickly and I don't often have guests up here." He had eggs and frozen bread, but Elias didn't want to have to cut anything. Val didn't want to just give him toast though.

				August moved to sit in the chair, sitting down, frowning ever so slightly when told that the other man wouldn't make fun of him. It was difficult. No matter how many years one practiced, cutting food you couldn't see was hard, and so was getting a fork properly positioned. It was embarassing and difficult and he didn't like it.<br><br>He was hungry, though, and the other man did promise not to make fun of him.<br><br>"Alright..."<br><br>The other man had been kind so far.

Elias nodded, runnning his fingers through his hair, setting his arms on the table. If he could have, he would have watched Val, but instead his head was tilted to the side, eyes turned to face a corner though he didn't know it, not really knowing what he was looking at in the slightest.

				"Sounds fine," he said with a little smile, liking that the other man had chosen something that wasn't too messy. He'd be able to eat those foods without too much of a struggle. He stretched, slowly, popping his back and then relaxed into the seat, letting out a contented sigh as his well-used muscles finally relaxed back a bit.<br><br>He was sore, though, so very sore. <br><br>"Mmm," he whispered, "You really did a number on me."<br><br>He couldn't help but laugh.

				Val went back to cooking, adding in little things such as cheese and sunflower seeds to make it taste a little better. He didn't know if it actually did make it taste better, but so far no one had complained. Cooking was actually something he liked to do, so it did kind of suck that he could never taste it.<br><br>The comment of being sore from their love making made him smile again. He was glad that he had enjoyed it and even that he'd be feeling the effects of it for a while. It was the thought that it'd make him think of him that got to him. Being a vampire would also make him think about him, though that wasn't as happy of a thing.<br><br>Of course that would lead to questions like this, but he couldn't bring himself to be upset about it. His curiosity is justified.<br><br>"I was turned by accident. My lover, my first lover, had told me he was a vampire. I liked it when he gave me his blood, it was unlike anything I had ever felt. It heightened my senses and gave me a feel of what it was like to be a vampire." He chuckled lightly at the irony of that.<br><br>"He'd feed off of me as well, but usually only during sex. One night he accidentally took too much and I became a vampire." It was the reason he fought so hard to control himself during sex. He didn't want to accidentally turn someone or hurt them.

				Val didn't comment on finding the finding food bit. There were some things that Elias just didn't need to know and he wouldn't be the one to tell him. The life of a vampire wasn't as great as some humans thought it to be. Sure, he got to live as long as he wanted, see all sorts of things, never age, and gain whole new powers, but it didn't fill the empty void that soon started to consume everything.<br><br>To be without any living family or friends was hard. It was even harder to want to keep making friends, only to have to watch them grow old and die way too soon. Not that he would even be able to do that. It wouldn't be long before they discovered what he was if he stayed with them.<br><br>Shaking his head he disrupted his thoughts and got away from them.<br><br>"Juice it is."<br><br>Orange juice seemed to keep the longest so he took a sniff to see if it smelled like it usually did, since he didn't think it was a good smell to begin with, and then poured a glass once he determined it was alright.<br><br>He sat the glass to the right near the top of the plate and let them clack together as well as telling Elias where it was. He didn't know why people thought it was a problem to accommodate to him. It was really just simple things he needed.<br><br>"I'm glad you like it."<br><br>Val took a moment to turn everything off and put everything away before sitting across from Elias and watching him eat. He wasn't judging him in any way, he just like to observe.

				Elias took a sip of the juice when it clinked against the plate, taking a slow drink of it before turning back to the food, slowly pushing the eggs about his plate then picking up a bite. He could hear some pieces fall clumsily off his fork onto the plate. He had to do his best to hide the frown by pushing what was on his fork into his mouth.<br><br>The food, at least, was wonderfully cooked. It was just the fact that it was having to be eaten in front of another person that was difficult. Eating was one of the few things that made Elias anxious these days.<br><br>He had gotten around most other things by now.<br><br>Eating without sight, without eyes, was still difficult. <br><br>"Delicious."<br><br>He said softly, turning to the toast, which was a bit easier. He lifted it to his lips and took a big bite, smiling when he tasted the butter, chewing reflectively and leaning back in his chair.

Not for being blind, but for continuing to think that those people actually cared about him.<br><br>It was sad, really.<br><br>"So, are you going to tell me where you live, little boy?" His tone was both teasing and dirty as he leaned over to Elias and turned him so he could kiss him. It was better to get his mind of such things and onto something more positive.<br><br>Val just barely resisted the urge to do something childish like tickle him as well.

				[The confusion! Haha.]<br><br>Elias laughed and aimed a light, playful punch at the other man's side, "Seventeen Sharpe Street, up on the east, next to the river." It was a nice enough neighborhood, and to live there alone, he clearly had managed to do fairly well for himself. <br><br>"Once you hit the bridge over the river, you take a left at the stoplight - that's what my friends said - and then it's the big red brick building that says 'Gardenhouse'. My apartment is in there."<br><br>He smiled faintly, "I'd like you to come up, if you've got time. Bones shouldn't bother you too badly. He's a funny thing, but usually he's pretty nice."<br><br>The sunlight coming through the windshield was warm and pleasant on his skin, and he stretched out comfortably, running his fingers back through his hair in what amounted to obvious pleasure.

He admitted that he was curious about his work.<br><br>"What is it you write about?"<br><br>Turning on the car first, he waited until he had pulled out onto the street before answering his offering.

				[Hahaha. I apologize...I'm not feeling my best at the moment. Ignore such discrepancies.]<br><br>Elias smiled faintly, shrugging, "It really depends.

Sometimes I even write about vampires in my books, but maybe not anymore."<br><br>He laughed softly, "It's hard to write about something once you've actually seen it. Or met it, at least.

But once I know something well..." he shrugged, "It's too hard to write about.

				Val found it amusing that Elias had written about vampires and wanted to read one of them if just to see what he used to believe. Just because he knew that they were real now didn't mean he was going to stop him from writing about them. Many people were into vampires and that fad would continue whether Elias wrote about them or not.<br><br>"There's always werewolves to tackle." He chuckled lightly, not actually having come across a werewolf or other lycanthrope yet. Val believed they existed because he existed, but that didn't mean he had encountered them first hand.<br><br>"I'm sure it'll be fine." If anything else he'd find it to be a peculiarity he liked about him. Even if his furniture was hideous and the colors atrocious, it would still be a part of him that he liked.

				Elias laughed softly, sitting back and letting the sunlight hit his face, able to feel it warm his skin. His eyes never shut in the light, showing no recognition of the brightness whatsoever, turning his head slightly to keep soaking up the warmth as they went around a corner. <br><br>He waited until the car had come to a full stop before moving to get out, taking a step onto the sidewalk, waiting for Val to come to his side before he moved. His apartment was on the fourth floor.<br><br>The building was quite nice, as was his apartment, in which Bones rested by the door.<br><br>The furniture was thankfully in neutral colors - mostly rich espresso browns - though the occasional soft blanket interrupted the careful arrangement of the room with hideously bright colors, as did the few mugs scattered about the room and the plush rug in a glaring, fire-engine red. Someone had clearly tried to arrange the apartment properly, but Elias had taken it as his own with the comfortable accents, going solely off feel. If it was soft, it was probably in his apartment.

				When he came upon the apartment he stopped at the curb, taking the spot of someone who had just left. He was going to open the car door for Elias but the man beat him to it, so he had to settle for taking his hand again to lead him, which was really just as nice. It let him be in physical contact with him which was something he loved.<br><br>"Which floor are you on?" Val took him inside once he knew where to go and helped him into the elevator, even though he knew that Elias had it covered from here on in. He liked doing these things for him and unless Elias showed that he didn't like it, he would continue.<br><br>While they were in there, alone thankfully, he took the opportunity to press him against the wall and kiss him. It appeared in random movies where there was this passionate kissing in the elevator once the doors closed, but he had never had the opportunity to try it until now.

				Elias was perfectly content to allow Val to lead him, and smiled when he was lead into the elevator, and the proper button was pressed. He was startled by the sudden press of a body against his own, and let out a soft moan, whimpering into the suddenly pleasurable contact, kissing the other man back just as eagerly. His arms wound around the other man's neck - it was an achingly slow elevator for which he was suddenly glad - their bodies absolutely molded to each other's.<br><br>"Mmm..."<br><br>He couldn't help but smile. It was so very romantic, if a bit cliched, and a moment that he would certain remember for the rest of his life. How had he been so lucky as to find someone like Val?

				His hands rested on the walls of the elevator until he moved them back to his hips, rubbing his thumbs over them lightly for a moment.

Although he knew it would end all too soon for him, he would enjoy staying at Elias' side for as long as he let him.<br><br>There was always the chance that after he grew confidence that he would want a human lover instead, and he understood that, but he always cherished the time he had with his lovers.

				Elias hardly wanted to part from this. He moaned softly at the contact of thumbs rubbing gently along his slim hips, and he reached out to pull Val close, long fingers clutching at his shirt to hold him close against his body. He kissed him, slowly, lingering at his lips before regretfully turning and making his way down the hall.<br><br>The fingertips of one hand trailed along the wall, the other hand firmly held in Val's, finally stopping at a nondescript brown door. He rustled about with his pockets for a few minutes.<br><br>Finally he pulled out a set of keys and swung open the door.<br><br>The first thing that Val would see would be a pair of vicious, gnashing teeth belonging to a hulking monster of a dog, growling low in its throat but not barking. Elias blocked the creature into the apartment, voice girm, "Bones. Bones, sit." <br><br>The dog didn't want to sit but eventually did so when Elias got a firm hand around the thick leather collar, half-hauling the dog farther into the large apartment. The walls were bare of any pictures, though the furniture was plush and comfortable, a decent-sized television against the wall of the living room. Nothing really matched but it was a comfortable mix of homey fabrics, lending the apartment a comfortably lived-in look.

				Val was not at all surprised to be met with an angry and aggressive dog. Most animals didn't like him, though for a service dog he should be a little more well behaved and listen to his master. He didn't fault Elias for it though and followed him inside, shutting the door behind him in case he tried to escape as well.<br><br>He smiled lightly as he saw all the soft things that inhabited the apartment. <em>Ever a creature of comfort.</em> Despite the odd coloring it was rather nice and definitely well lived in.

Other vampires, and other creatures like them, were best not to be trusted. He wanted to keep Elias safe and if that meant dealing with an angry dog then he would do it.

				"If you'd like to.

Elias asked curiously, heading into the small kitchen that was full of mostly instant food - apples, bananas, bread. All the sorts of food that could be put together without having to light a stove too often. Elias could cook on a stove but he preferred not to, if he could avoid it. <br><br>He reached into the refridgerator and pulled out a dish of marinated chicken. Probably not what he was supposed to feed Bones, but the dog liked it, and was always happy to get it.<br><br>He set the food on the ground and Bones came over, thick tail thumping the cabinets around them hard as he wagged it contentedly. The dog settled in to eat and Elias came back out of the kitchen, reaching for Val then kissing him again, almost missing him. "Mmm. I feel like I could sit here and kiss you all day."

				Taking a quick check he determined that his shoes weren't dirty and therefore didn't feel guilty or paranoid about not taking them off. He didn't want to get Elias' house dirty, especially not on his first time being there. Elias wouldn't see it but it still wasn't something he'd do.<br><br>"A few. Each has their own territory." Territories were invisible but could be felt by other vampires and anyone who cared to pay attention. Humans were blissfully ignorant and ignored them entirely.<br><br>"A spoiled boy, isn't he? Am I going to get any of that spoiling?" He teased, not requiring but accepting any excess loving that he wanted to give him. Just spending time with him was spoiling enough though.<br><br>Wrapping his arms back around Elias, he returned his kisses, bringing him close to him again.

				"Mmm. I should get back to writing. And take Bones outside. And..." he stilled his words with another deep kiss, pressing himself against Val's body, running a hand up under his shirt and carressing his muscles with a pleased smile on his lovely face. Oh, he was certainly enjoying this. <br><br>"No. No chicken for you. I'll have to spoil you in other ways..." he whispered, letting his lips trail along Val's jawline, exploring him with his lips rather than his eyes.<br><br>He couldn't help but grin as he thought of how good this felt.<br><br>It had been so long since he had had someone, and then suddenly he seemed to have found someone who was so perfect. Even if he was a few centuries old and not entirely human.<br><br>"Are the other vampires dangerous?" Elias asked softly, still pressed against Val, torn between his lust and his curiosity. He wondered if he would ever run into another vampire, or if being bitten by Val would attract other vampires to him in some way.

He wouldn't mind him taking his time to explore him with whatever part of his body he chose.<br><br>Elias was so happy to be with him that he couldn't help but smile.

				Elias was breathless, especially when those lips trailed down his neck, fangs nipping at his skin. "Yes," he breathed, "It turns me on." God, did it turn him on.

Keeping him in place he let his fangs descend, but didn't pierce his skin just yet, gently scraping them over his neck.<br><br>His hand pushed its way under his shirt and his fingers mimicked the sensations his fangs were causing, teasing him subtly.

				He made a deep guttural growl, something that only vampires did, and moved Elias' hands until they were trapped above him.

Now that he was unable to go anywhere he ground slowly but harshly against his hips.<br><br>Val was fully in control of himself, but would allow Elias the fantasy that he was not and that he was going to take him whether he liked it or not.

				It was a relief to know that he would actually speak up. There were several possibilities, he knew, where the person would get so into the game that they would forget it's a game and forget to say something when it went too far, making it a horrible experience for the both of them. He sincerely hoped that Elias didn't have that problem.<br><br>He thought for a moment and then glanced at Bones, seeing that he was done eating.

				Elias was surprised that Bones came to Val, given his intial hatred of the vampire, but he had been well-trained and would obey a command, especially if it was someone that his owner showed obvious affection to. Elias made a show of struggling a bit but didn't put enough effort into it to make it even remotely difficult for Val to tie him up. <br><br>He stumbled over to the table, relying heavily on Val not to push him into something on the way there, biting his lip when he was pushed down onto the dark wood.<br><br>His hair spilled out around him as he did.<br><br>"You'll have to...find out...for yourself..."

				Being called a slut would normally have made Elias rear up idignantly and stalk off. Now, though, it had him panting atop his dining room table, legs spread, silently asking for more while his lips did the opposite. "If I had, it wouldn't be any of your business."<br><br>He could hardly stifle the little smile, but that fell as his entrance was rubbed, moving back onto those fingers as though he wanted nothing more than penetration.<br><br>He wanted to be fucked.<br><br>He wanted to be made to bleed, and to be hurt, all the while being able to trust Val not to do more than he could take. He would tell Val to stop if it hurt too badly.<br><br>Saliva would work well enough, for now, at least. He wanted the pain...rather, welcomed the idea of being fucked almost against his will. His hands jerked in the collar but it held fast, being well-made and well-cared-for.<br><br>"You can't hurt me," he murmured, tauntingly.<br><br>Oh, yes. He wanted this.

Even as a vampire he could still make his own, but there was another way to get it that was more erotic.<br><br>His taunts did nothing but make him smile, though since Elias couldn't see he didn't bother to hide it, loving how into it he was getting.<br><br>"We'll just see about that.

				Elias kept his lips shut at first, but then wantonly began sucking the fingers that invaded his mouth, bobbing his head and getting them good and wet. Oh, yes...for all of his protests, he couldn't hide how badly he wanted this. His hips lifted a bit to welcome those grinding hips against his own.<br><br>He moaned, quietly, doing his best to stifle it but failing. "Ah..."<br><br>He wanted, no...needed more.

He cried out when those fingers finally penetrated him, writhing, moving just for the much older man.

				Elias' scream went straight through him and he growled instinctually in arousal. He wanted to be inside him, pounding away right now, but he forced himself to slow down.

				Elias growled in frustration, the sound a soft rumble in his slim chest, feeling that smooth hardness rubbing against him from behind. "It's fine, it's fine," he gasped. He had a feeling that Val would have told him if he had any diseases by now. Plus, he wanted it so badly that the thought of waiting was utterly unbearable. He arched and shut his eyes briefly for just a moment.<br><br>"Ah..."<br><br>He pressed his cheek against the smooth wood, hard member being rubbed against his own soft stomach and the cool wood, making him whimper softly in pleasure.<br><br>Those growls, though...<br><br>He had never had a lover who sounded quite so animalistic when he made a sound like that and it sent a jolt of pleasure right down his spine, making him even harder, making him want this even more than he had before.

				Spitting into his hand he slicked himself up as much as he could, repositioning himself quickly before pressing his way inside. Although he went slow enough not to hurt him, he was supposed to be raping Elias and so he didn't take as much time as he normally would have. Pausing for only a short moment when he was fully inside him, Val began thrusting slowly.<br><br>"You feel so good, boy."<br><br>One hand he kept on his hips while the other, that had been holding him down, ran over his back over the clothing, going high enough to reach his neck before moving back down. He let his nails scrape against him, though they couldn't do any damage, knowing the sensation of it would be enough.<br><br>As soon as Elias got used to it he sped up until he was pounding into him, making the table squeak lightly at their movements.

				Elias whimpered softly, biting his bottom lip as the other man began sinking into his body, letting out another sot cry when he was told that he felt so good. He was tight, could feel every inch of Val in his body. They were so very close, now, not even a condom separating them, and he needed a bit to get used to the feeling which Val gave him while running his nails over him.<br><br>A sweet cry came from his hips and his whole body tightened, crying out at the force with which Val was taking him, hands jerking in their leather collar and bruising his wrists, though he didn't mind at all.<br><br>"Vampire..."<br><br>The word was just one single, heavy murmur, full of pleasure and lust and a thread of fear underneath it all that he sounded quite pleased to have.

				Going without a condom was so much better than using one. It allowed him to feel so much more which brought moans out of him beyond his control. This was only spurred further by his little sounds; the squeaking of the table, their skin moving together, even the scrunching sound of the leather as he twisted his hands.<br><br>"Human..." He growled in reply, wanting to let him keep the fantasy. Although he didn't normally like fear, hearing it with all the lust and passion he was feeling made it such a turn on. A rape victim should be feeling a little fear, right?<br><br>Val wanted to do this again, though maybe a little more planned out as far as lubricant went, but still just as spontaneous. He had never had a lover where they had created 'scenes' for each other to act out, at least not like this.<br><br>He was growing to love it.

				Elias bit his lip to stifle a cry but a particularly brutal thrust drew out another scream. He turned his head, tilting it to the side, revealing the slim white column of his throat. He wanted to taunt and tease the other man with it. He wanted to make the other man want him. He could hardly bear the pleasure he was feeling.<br><br>"Mmm..." the sound was a soft purr in sharp contrast to the next sharp scream that came out when the vampire thrust into his prostate. God. That was the spot and he nearly lost it just then.<br><br>"I want..." he whimpered, "I need..."<br><br>His cheeks flushed with the humiliation of asking someone who was supposed to be 'raping' him to allow him to finish.

				It was so amazing how erotic this was and how such a little thing could make them so hard they they were both already close to coming.

There wasn't much else he could say and still remain 'in character', but it was enough.<br><br>Leaning over Elias as much as he could, he used his shoulder to pull him back against him, into his thrusts, but also get his neck as close as he needed it.

				Elias keened something that was probably the same thing, though the words wouldn't quite come, and he cried out as his shoulder was suddenly tugged on and his chest was lifted from the table. He felt the sharp burn of fangs sinking into his skin and the warm rush of blood filling Val's mouth over his shoulder, crying out.<br><br>Bones, smelling the blood, began to growl.

				Elias' cries along with the taste of his blood stirred something instinctual inside of him that he had strain himself in order to hold back. Within every vampire, perhaps every man, there came a predator that cared nothing for its victims and allowed them the apathy they needed to survive. It would allow him to be rough and uncaring for Elias, but that was not something he wanted.<br><br>These games were damn arousing and Val would like to continue them, but he'd never let the predator inside him free to do whatever it wanted.<br><br>Despite how he may want to strike out at Bones, claiming Elias as 'his', internally he was grateful that the dog was still willing to attack him. He liked the thought that Elias had some protection from him if he got out of hand, even if that protection wouldn't last long against the predator inside him.<br><br>The tight coiling in his stomach became a knot when Elias' fingers brushed against it and with his scream he couldn't help but climax with him, more focused on the way his body contorted rather than his own pleasure. He enjoyed having this much power over him; the power and ability to make him come this hard and bring him so much pleasure.<br><br>With a light growl he withdrew his fangs and licked the wounds until they healed, then letting go of his shoulder to release him from the awkward position. Moving his other hand, he could resist the temptation of licking his hand clean. Semen was so very close to blood.<br><br>Untying his hands he noticed the bruises and immediately brought them to his lips, kissing them in silent apology. There was no doubt that they had both enjoyed this though and so he didn't voice his concerns, not wanting to ruin the moment.<br><br>Pulling out, he helped Elias turn around and keep stable as he claimed his lips in a kiss, something he had been wanting to do since they started.

Elias couldn't stop himself from laughing softly when he said that. Being around Val was exhausting...the sex drew so very much out of him, and it was so pleasurable. His skin was a bit paler than when they had set out that morning, but he hadn't lost too much blood, just enough to give him a slightly more delicate look. <br><br>He felt along the edge of the table, centering himself, still weak-kneed after the mind lowing sex that they had just had.

Piles of pillows were leant up against the bed, and a television faced the bed, the remote placed carefully on the bedside table, underneath which there was a mini-fridge filled with bottles of water. Bones let out a sharp bark and bounded ahead of them to the bedroom, taking a flying leap onto the bed, rolling. Elias could hear the thud of a few pillows tumbling off.

				Elias chuckled softly but flushed, rather pleased by the idea that he would have his lover break in, and then they could play out the whole scenario all over again. <br><br>He smiled and rolled a bit when those fingers ran over his body, holding out his hand, accepting the two Tylenol when they were brought. He took a mouthful of water and swallowed them down then settled back. <br><br>"Oh...right, sorry."<br><br>He felt about on his nightstand and retrieved his cellphone, holding it up, "My number should be in there under 'my info'. Can you find it?" Elias would be unable to find it himself. Dialing numbers was about the best that he could do. He was never able to remember his cellphone number off the top of his head, anyways. <br><br>He rubbed his left eye, once, and then patted Bones' side, prompting a heavy tail-thumping wag from the dog before it settled back down again and seemed to fall asleep. Elias yawned and pulled the blankets up over his waist, snuggling into the soft bedding.

				"It's fine." His tone was amused and he easily found the number, memorizing it and then putting it into his own cell phone. He did Elias the favor of adding his number as well and managed to make it a speed dial as well.<br><br>"I took the liberty of setting up your speed dial and set myself as '1'."<br><br>Val set it back exactly where he had seen Elias pick it up so he could easily find it. Being blind he was so organized. It was a bit refreshing from the chaos Val experienced nightly in his club.<br><br>"Goodnight, Elias. I'll call you later."<br><br>Kissing his cheek, he brushed his hair lightly before leaving the room, making sure to lock the door before he shut it behind him.<br><br>He hoped he'd see Elias again soon.

				Elias smiled when toldt he other man had made himself number one on the speed dial, nodding and tapping the phone to feel where it had been set, smiling when he realized it had been set exactly where he had had it before. <br><br>"Alright. I'll wait for your call..." he yawned, then, unable not to do so. The faint brush at his hair made him smile even more brightly.<br><br>He settled back into the pillows.<br><br>Once the door locked behind Val, he could hear that he was well and truly alone, stroking Bones' side with a slim hand. He enjoyed the wiry fur and moved so that he was pressed a bit closer to the slumbering beast, sighing softly and shutting his eyes, thinking of how sweet Val had been to him. How kind and how perfect Val was despite not being human. God, he wanted...he wanted to see Val's face. He buried his head against Bones' back. He wanted to see what his lover looked like. Was his hair black? White? Pink? He had no idea.<br><br>Pushing those thoughts from his mind, he managed to fall asleep peacefully.

				Val returned back home and set the keys down on the counter. It was still pretty early so he didn't have to worry about opening up yet. His club ran from from about 8pm to 2am, but it still made a fair amount of money each night. Enough for him to keep the place running and pay his employees what they deserved.<br><br>During the day, unless something was wrong, he only had to make sure that the basic stuff was taken care of. The worst of it was cleaning, since no one wanted to clean the large bathrooms. Still, he had hired someone to do it and compensated them well so he had no complaints. Usually at times like this he just lounged about, but now that he had Elias there was something else he could do for him.<br><br>After taking off his shoes again, Val went about rearranging the furniture to make the place more 'blind friendly'. Mostly this just consisted of making things less easy to run into and moving anything breakable to a stable place. It wasn't that he didn't trust him, he just didn't want him to feel bad if he broke something.<br><br>Looking around the large warehouse like space, it was hard not to notice how empty it felt. He only had enough things to fill a small portion of it and the rest was just wide open. Perhaps he would have Elias pick out a few things he'd like. That would have to wait a while though. He didn't want to scare him off by moving too fast.<br><br>Val had all the time in the world.

				Elias managed to sleep for a few hours and then finally woke, rolling out of bed, feet hitting the soft carpet. He trailed through the apartment contentedly, into the kitchen, getting himself a glass of lemonade from the refrigerator. He carefully poured it - stopping when the sound changed just a bit to indicate the glass was getting full - and with a careful tip he stopped pouring. He capped the liquid and set it back within the fridge.<br><br>He could hear Bones following him, though the dog knew not to get too far underfoot unless Elias held his hand out for him, he knew better than to trip up his master.<br><br>Elias picked up an apple and crunched into it.<br><br>Once the apple was done he tossed it into the trash and took a few more sips of his lemonade, touching his neck, feeling the smooth flesh there. Val had healed the marks entirely. He couldn't help but wonder if there were other vampires who were less kind.<br><br>Val was so very sweet to him, but...<br><br>Would being around Val attract other, less savoury vampires to him? He shook his head. It didn't matter. Val would keep him safe from anything else. Now, all he should worry about was where their relationship was going to go.

				It was getting later in the afternoon and therefore it was about time for Val to check the club downstairs and see what had been missed last night. When his workers were tired they sometimes skimped on things in order to get home faster. He understood this but he'd still make them clean it up once they got into work today.<br><br>Slipping his shoes back on he headed back downstairs and started at the front where the first bar was. He had been out here when they closed last night so everything was pretty much already in order, it was just a matter of double checking.<br><br>As he did so his mind wandered back to Elias and that brought a smile to his face. The boy was so beautiful, especially when he was moaning and writhing beneath him. he wanted to see him again soon, but that wouldn't be possible for a while, not unless he planned on coming to the club again tonight. He'd call him tomorrow if he didn't hear from him before then.

				Elias figured that he shouldn't call until well after the club would have closed, so he lounged about the house for a few hours, though fell asleep before midnight. He ended up stirring about four in the morning and then paused, turning on the television, listening until someone mentioned the time on a program. He picked up his phone and dialed Val's number from speed-dial.<br><br>He didn't want to seet too desperate, though. Afterall, he had just been left at his apartment. Would it be too soon to call? This was silly. He let the phone ring, holding it to his ear, moving to sit back on the edge of the bed.<br><br>Finally, he got up, then headed towards the kitchen.<br><br>He poured himself a glass of water and took a sip, waiting for Val to pick up if he was going to, holding it between his fingers. <br><br>He wanted to hear Val's voice.<br><br>There was something comforting about the older man's voice over the phone, about him being able to hear him. Perhaps it was because he couldnt see him, but the timbre of the other man's voice helped identify that he really was talking to Val.

				The night had gone the same as it usually had, but he was mildly disappointed that Elias hadn't shown up. He understood that he probably needed to rest after all the activity they underwent, but still it didn't damped his desire to see him and hear his voice.<br><br>Val was just locking up when he felt his cell vibrating and looked to see who was calling. With a smile he answered it, glad that he had given him his number as well.<br><br>"Hello, Elias. I was hoping you would call."<br><br>Using his shoulder to keep the phone in place, he continued locking up and then headed back upstairs so he could talk to him more comfortably.<br><br>Val really wanted to set up a second date with him, away from the club this time and somewhere he'd enjoy. The problem was that he didn't really know his likes and dislikes yet and was looking for something to go off of. Right now what he had was to find something pleasing to the ears that didn't really require sight.

				Elias smiled faintly and leant back against the counter, holding the water glass loosely between his fingertips for a few moments before setting it onto the counter with a little 'clink'. "Were you? I was looking forward to hearing your voice. I'm not interrupting you now, am I?" It sudenly occured to him that Val might still be finishing up work rather than done by now.<br><br>He padded towards the bathroom, and the sound of running water could be heard as Elias began filling a bath, "I was wondering if you wanted to go to the park, some evening. Maybe if you get a night off? I like to go there and it doesn't make much difference to me whether it's day or night."<br><br>Plus, there were no children out at night, so no small people to worry about tripping over.<br><br>Also, he didn't have to worry about Bones trying to eat them, or worse. <br><br>He let the water run, heading into the kitchen once more, grabbing a bottle of wine. He didn't bother with a glass, merely uncorking it - carefully - then carrying it back to the bathroom. He would take a long, luxurious bath and gather his thoughts, then try to get back to writing.

				"No, I just got done locking up actually. Perfect timing." He couldn't help but smile, almost wanting to torture him but resisting. The man was just so cute and fun to mess with that he couldn't resist wanting to tease him.<br><br>The sound of water made his smile widen, imagining Elias' wet, naked body in the tub. Taking off his shoes he listened to his words, definitely wanting to meet with him. The problem was that they'd have to wait until Sunday if they were going to go at night.<br><br>"The only night we're closed is on Sunday and every other day I have to be here at six."

Elias couldn't help but smile as he took off his socks and boxers and then slipped into the hot water, letting out a contented sigh as he picked up the bottle of wine, taking a slow sip from the bare neck.<br><br>He licked the last few drops off the end and then set down the still-full bottle on the edge of the bath tub. "Mmm. Could be.

				"It's nothing a good pair of sunglasses wouldn't fix. I'm not going to burst into flames." Chuckling lightly he went to his couch and listened to Elias' voice and the things he did as he moved about. It was contenting.<br><br>It was an arousing image to imagine Elias soaking in the tub, writing his novels. Maybe even delving into the exotic, becoming aroused by his own words and lose time to masturbating.<br><br>"Hahah, with all these sexy things you do, if I come over you'll never get anything done!" There was some truth to those words, for he could have sex with Elias all day and no grow bored. He wouldn't take his blood but he would give him enough pleasure to truly exhaust him.<br><br>"Though I'm sure I could keep you entertained with just my voice." He growled suggestively, not all all against the idea of phone sex, especially when Elias was blind and could imagine he was there so much easier that way.

				Elias laughed softly and splashed a bit in the tub as he moved about. There were no lights on in the apartment. It was pitch black but it didn't really make much of a difference at all to Elias one way or the other. The water was warm.<br><br>Elias smiled to himself and tilted his head back against the edge of the tub. It was easily large enough to fit four people and was one of the reasons he loved the apartment so much. Taking a bath was his favorite way to relax.<br><br>Elias shivered when he heard that voice.<br><br>"I'm sure that you could..." his hand traced down his chest idly then he let it fall to the water with a blush that was almost audible. <br><br>"It's just, when your voice goes all deep like that..." Elias' voice was a bit breathy, now, distracted by the pleasure that that deep rumble in Val's voice seemed to promise tohim. Yes, Val's voice was so many things to him, so very many, very good things. "What are you doing, now?"

				It was a cute image he created with all that splashing about, probably sitting there in complete darkness too. The response he had to his voice and the embarrassment he felt afterward was even more cute and it made him want to tease him even more.<br><br>Laughing a bit, he answered his question, lowering his voice to a heady growl the way he liked it.<br><br>"Don't you mean, 'What are you wearing?' Well, Elias, I'm sitting all comfortable on the couch with my jeans and t-shirt on, though I could certainly change that for you."<br><br>He liked the idea that he could make Elias so aroused just by the sound of his voice.

				Elias laughed softly, "Right, that's what I mean..." he smiled when told that the other man was sitting on the couch in jeans and a t-shirt. He rather liked Val when he was naked but as he couldn't touch him now, he supposed it didn't matter one way or the other. <br><br>The growl of his voice, though, brought a breathy edge to the younger man's voice. He was clearly enjoying listening to Val talk. "I wish you were in the tub with me..."<br><br>Elias purred the words softly, sliding his own hand along his thigh, blushing.<br><br>He had never tried something like this. With that voice purring in his ear, even over the phone, he couldn't manage to stop himself, though. He really needed to get better control of himself.

The water was so very warm around him, and his hand brushed up his thigh once more, tentatively, not quite touching his most intimate areas as he thought of what to say back to that question.<br><br>"I'm...I'm touching my thigh...it'll all wet, slick from the water..." he was describing what he felt, for he would never see those beautiful thighs for himself, "Water's warm..." he mumbled shyly, and there was a soft hitch of breath.<br><br>He waited to hear what Val would say next, then leaning back slightly.<br><br>Val's voice was so deep even over the phone, and he was already growing hard as he thought of the way that voice felt against him, of the way that that voice felt when it rumbled down the back of his neck.<br><br>He took in a sharp breath and let out a tiny little gasp.

There was the soft splashing of water against the tub edge as he carressed the soft lips that parted, and then he licked one of his fingers slowly. "I'm thinking of your fingers...I'm licking them..." he whispered softly, drawing one into his mouth, suckling it for a moment.<br><br>He let it slip back out from between his lips to trace his lips once more, just letting the pad of his finger run over his lips, "I'm imagining you're trying to see like me...learning by touch..."<br><br>The thought seemed to excite and please Elias.<br><br>"Are...are you doing it, too?" He meant the phone sex in general, the touching, not so much the touching of his lips. He wanted to make sure that his lover was enjoying this as well.<br><br>Elias certainly was.<br><br>He was able to explore his own body - something he rarely did - while Val talked him through what to do and murmured in that deliciously deep voice all the things that he liked Elias to do.

				Val took it from his tone that having him explore him by touch, as he had to, was a turn on for him. If that was the case then he'd give him a little present the next time he saw him. He already had an idea as to how to pull it off as well.<br><br>"My eyes are closed right now, imagining how it must be for you."<br><br>Some people would avoid ever mentioning that they couldn't see to a blind person, but Val didn't see a reasoning to that.

He knew that.<br><br>"Yes, just light touches right now, but keep talking to me with that sexy voice of yours and I guarantee it'll be more.

				Elias listened and smiled as the other man said that he was imagining how it must be for him. He shut his yes - more or a relaxation technique than anything else - but there was nothing but a thick blackness that he really didn't know how to identify as blackness. He didn't know it as a color but merely as what was there when he opened his eyes. He shivered faintly when his hands trailed from his lips and over his chin to slowly stroke at the long column of his neck.<br><br>He traced that pale, slim line, carressing and then touching where the older man had bitten him. His fingers pressed in, hard, and he let out a surprised gasp at the pleasure it brought. <br><br>"Your fangs..." he whispered throatily, "I'm thinking of how they felt..."<br><br>He swallowed and touched his neck again, letting his fingers slowly close around it, not squeezing but shivering at the potential there as he imagined it was Val's hand. "I'm thinking...thinking of how powerful you are, of how your fangs feel when the sink in, when you start to drink my blood...how it feels to have your...ah..." he was achingly hard now.<br><br>"...your lips there, sucking, taking my blood...and your teeth buried in my neck..." his hand slowly traced down his chest, then, and there was a soft whimper as his fingertips brushed over his nipple and he arched in the warm water.

				All the talk about Elias' desire for his fangs were making them tingle with the desire to bite. He wasn't at all hungry but still he craved the sweet taste of Elias' blood. It tasted especially good when taken during sex, his pleasure creating a unique taste he craved.<br><br>"My fangs ache to to be buried deep inside you. You make me want for you blood even though I'm not hungry. Such an effect you have on me." He growled, putting his desire into his voice to let him know just how much he wanted him.<br><br>"It was so hot when I 'raped' you. I want you to be rough; pinch and torment your nipple and use your other hand to run your finger lightly over your inner thigh. Don't touch your erection."<br><br>Val wanted to see if he could get Elias to beg to touch himself and get himself off.

				Elias bit his bottom lip and then pinched his nipple, hard, drawing a sharp cry from his smooth throat. He arched upwards and the water rippled around him and lapped gently at the edges of the bathtub. He twisted it slightly, gasping, the other hand beginning to explore between his thighs, gently running over the skin.<br><br>Both hands working on his body made him let out a soft, sweet breath as he tugged his nipple gently, moving to the other one.

The image of it was hot and he teased himself as well, only lightly touching himself with the tips of his fingers.<br><br>"I love touching you. Your skin is so soft and feels so good. It feels like I'm with you now, watching you touch yourself for me. It's damn hot."<br><br>He wondered if Elias had ever touched himself like this, in this manner, for himself or anyone else. Val like thinking of himself as the first, even if it wasn't true.<br><br>In any case, this was the first time for the two of them.<br><br>"Now I want you to go down a bit further. I want you to work a finger inside yourself. Use the water as lubricant. Will you do that for me, Elias?" He knew that he would but he wanted to hear him say it, and it gave him the opportunity to growl his name.

He spread his legs a bit wider, just a bit, settling.<br><br>His fingers drifted down, sliding past his swollen member, between his thighs.<br><br>Then he pressed the tip of his finger against himself, "I'm thinking of your fingers...I'm thinking of how it feels when you...ah...! I have it in, to the knuckle, and...God, Val, it's like you're touching me..."<br><br>He sunk his finger in to the end and wiggled it a bit, whimpering, "Please," he gasped, "Please let me touch myself, Val...it feels so good, and I'm so hard...you're the only one who has ever...who's ever een able to do this to me, I want...please, let me..."

				Taking his erection out of his boxers he stroked himself lightly, listening to Elias' sexy voice tell him how he was thinking of his hands being on him as he practically finger fucked himself. It was enough to turn anyone on and Val was no exception.<br><br>Being told he was the only one who had ever been able to do this to him was quite a turn on as well. And an ego boost.<br><br>"Yes, go ahead, touch yourself, Elias.

				Elias let out a relieved moan when told to touch himself, running his free hand down his chest, water splashing as he wrapped it around his swollen member. He began stroking quickly, the finger on his other hand pumping in and out, letting out sof litle whimpers and moans. "I'm fucking myself with my hand, Val, and...and I'm touching myself, too, thinking of your hand..."<br><br>He tossed his head back and let out a sharp cry, "God! Val..." he was so close to going over the edge now but did his best to hold back a bit longer. "Are you touching yourself?"<br><br>His voice was faint, breathy, heated with lust.<br><br>"Val...I'm thinking of your hand on me...when you 'raped' me...how you grabbed, and went so fast...I'm doing the same thing..."<br><br>The water was splashing more, now, his moans coming quicker.<br><br>"I'm...I'm gonna...oh, God, Val!" That was it for Elias, and he came hard, legs clenching from where they were spread, finger slowly stilling, gasping as his seed pumped onto his chest and the hot water lapped it off almost immediately.<br>

				He sped up as Elias' moans continued and listened to his voice telling him how he was touching himself, getting himself off. It was so hot. If he were there he didn't think he'd be able to keep his hands to himself. He'd have taken over and penetrated him long ago.<br><br>Moaning back he answered the affirmative. <br><br>"Yes, Elias, I'm touching myself too. You make me so hard."<br><br>He remembered how fast he had gone and did the same to himself, loving how they were both doing the same thing to themselves. The splashing of the water only added to the experience and he licked his lips again, almost there.<br><br>"Mmm, yes...!" Elias' moaning was enough to get him off and he spurted all over his hand, rocking his hips up as he leaned further back into the couch, enjoying his climax.

				After Elias came, there was only the sound of soft panting before a tired sounding splash came, and Elias picked up the phone and held it to his ear. His voice came through clearer, now, and he smiled. <br><br>"You sure make it hard for me to keep my hands off myself," Elias responded, laughing.<br><br>He stretched out and relaxed in the water.<br><br>"Trouble is, I can't think of anything but you, which is a bit distracting when it comes to my writing." Elias teased lightly, but it was true that Val was always on his mind, always the first thing that he thought of since they had met. That had only been twenty four hours ago, but still, if it proved to be a pattern, writing would get increasingly more difficult.

				He chuckles lightly in response, loving to imagine Elias thinking of him in the middle of what he was doing and being unable not to touch him. To masturbate in the middle of work or get hard when with or talking to his friends. Val loved having that effect on him.<br><br>"Mm, maybe you should write about about a vampire who drives his lover mad with pleasure, only he can't figure out where he disappears to during club hours." He teased. He didn't mind if Elias wrote about him, but it'd be best not to mention his name and to add in a few little quirks just in case another vampire were to read it and grow suspicious.<br><br>Still, he couldn't stop thinking of him as well and at this rate they'd tire each other out before long.<br><br>"I can't stop thinking of you either."

They sell well, though, so I can't really complain. My readers seem to like them well enough."<br><br>He stretched out within the tub, "Yeah...the vampire books always sell pretty well. Maybe I will go ahead and put you in," he said with a smile, "Of course, I'll change your name. By the way...what color is your hair? I was wondering, earlier..."<br><br>It frustrated him not to know that about his lover.<br><br>So many people associated a certain smile with their lover, or physical quirks, but Elias associated feels with them instead, as he would never see their smile, or be able to see the way sunlight looked on their hair.

				"It's black, like yours, only less shiny. My eyes are amber, almost gold and my skin is a pale tan. My birthmark is a small blob behind my right ear, partly hidden by my hair." Aside from the obvious, there wasn't much remarkable by his looks. Humans just happened to be attracted to the 'vampire' look.<br><br>Val didn't know if Elias could picture or even knew what colors looked like, but he still thought that he'd like to know, if only to describe him to someone else.<br><br>"If there's anything you'd like me to tell you, just ask. Others may get to see me, but you're the one who has me." Smiling at that he moved to clean himself off, not wanting to stay sticky like this. He stayed on the phone though, not wanting to let Elias go.

				Elias smiled, "You must be beautiful in a rather dark sort of way...I wish that I could see you, sometime..." He knew that it was an idle wish and one that would only upset him so he pushed it as far from his mind as he could without thinking about it too much in those few moments. He stored the colors in his mind for reference for the next book he would write but would never see them himself, and could barely remember colors from before he lost his sight.<br><br>It had been such a very long time since that happened.<br><br>"Good. I hope it will stay that way..."<br><br>Elias was smiling and the sound of his smile leaked into his voice, coloring it, making it clear and sweet and oh-so-contented sounding.

He had some ideas but they were only in the starting stages at the moment.

				Elias listened quietly, before he responded, frowning faintly. "I wouldn't want you to see me when I was all old and frail. I'd much rather die young, even if it wasn't natural, than withering away. I don't want to get old..." <br><br>He shrugged slightly and relaxed a bit more.<br><br>"No..." he said softly, then, adding to what he had said earlier.<br><br>He thought back on when his vision had started to fade.<br><br>"I was five, and I got a really bad fever. My mother wanted to take me to the hospital but my father said I was fine - he was always obsessed with one thing or another - and his thing was herbal cures at that point. They tried it for a few days and by the time my mother finally broke off and took me to the hospital, they realized that my sight had faded. They gave me an operation for it, but that only made it worse, since I got an infection that took what little sight I had left. My father still regrets not taking me in to this day. He says it was the worst decision he ever made..." Elias trailed off softly, "I can't bring myself to be mad at him. I forgave him once he told me how sorry he was for not taking me in. He never knew any better, he wasn't a doctor...my mother, though, always held it against him, just a little bit. We could both always tell from the way she acted around him after that. She died, though, fairly young."

				It saddened him a bit that Elias wanted to die young. He wondered if he realized how selfish that sounded, although he was probably trying to be nice. The years moved by so quickly for Val--to have Elias die young...He didn't want to lose him so soon. It hurt that Elias would rather die young than to spend the rest of his natural life with him.<br><br>He held his thoughts back though. Val was used to losing the ones he cared for, though it was no less painful, and it was enough that he would be able to make Elias happy while it lasted.<br><br>"I'm sorry for your loss." <br><br>Was his mother's death the reason he wanted to die young as well? Perhaps he could take his mind off things and give him something to be happy about.<br><br>Rezipping his jeans, he put his shoes back on and opened one of sky lights of the building. The roof was rather jagged with random bits of metal--the warehouse's previous owners had let an artist decorate it--and it was too dangerous for anyone to climb on, especially at night. Val had great eye sight though and held his phone in his teeth as he did some fancy acrobatics to get up there.<br><br>He pushed a few buttons in his feat, but had managed to pull it off. Val put the phone back against his ear and grinned mischievously. "Elias, get out of the bath and answer you door."

				Elias smiled and nodded when told that Val was sorry for his loss, never thinking that Val truly wanted to be with him until he was old. The thought of having a young lover have to care for him when he was old and senile, though, was too painful to consider. To have a man he loved caring for his ruin of a body. No. He would much rather die young, and beautiful, like his mother. Hopefully he would die harbouring far less resentment than she had, though. <br><br>She had been a beautiful but cold woman, plucked from her country by an eccentric and warm man who she had briefly loved, and then born a son to. She had pinned all her hopes on her son being in business and doing well by the already extraordinarily rich family, but his blindness had prevented that, and her anger at her husband had become like a poison that had spread from her heart to her whole body before she died, ending up as cold to her child as she was to her husband. Elias still loved her dearly, though, and missed her every day.<br><br>He sat up when told to open the door.<br><br>"Should I put on some clothes...?"<br><br>He trailed towards the door, though, only a towel wrapped loosely around his waist as he carefully made his way through the unlit apartment to the front door, opening it tentatively and smiling as he held the phone to his ear. All that beeping...what had Val been doing?

				His speed was definitely an asset in situations like this and he made it to Elias' apartment in record time, just as he had opened the door. Smiling at the wetness that dripped off his body he couldn't help but want to touch it. Even in such dim lighting he was beautiful.<br><br>"No, you look lovely just the way you are." He purred, slipping through the door and closing his phone. He wrapped an arm around Elias' waist and kissed him in greeting, not minding at all that he was getting wet in the process. Knowing that he had just masturbated for him made it all the better.<br><br>Stepping them further inside, he shut the door and ignored Bones' growling, putting his cell in his jeans and wrapping his other arm around him as well.<br><br>"It sounded like you could use some loving." <br><br>He said into his ear, then licking the rim of it.

				"How did you-" he was being pushed inside, his own phone set on a side table when he felt Val's arms go around him, hearing Bones growl. His mind turned to mush whenhe felt that tongue trace the edge of his ear, and he gently swatted the other man's arm, laughing quietly but leaning against his chest.<br><br>"Stop that. I can't think when you do that. Also, you're going to get wet if you hug me before I dry off. How did you get here so quickly?"<br><br>He couldn't imagine Val running so quickly.<br><br>Had he flown like vampires in old movies by turning into a bat? Certainly that, as well, would have taken longer. <br><br>"I can always use some loving from you, Val..." he laughed, "Mmm..." his lips tasted faintly of the expensive red wine he had been drinking, the bottle of which was still resting on the still-full tub.

				"You can get me as wet as you'd like." He growled playfully, kissing him again and loving the rich taste he had in his mouth. He had been drinking wine; a good brand if he was correct. It accented him wonderfully.<br><br>"Vampire secrets and all that." He muttered, not thinking the 'how' part important. He was here now and that's all the mattered.<br><br>"Mmm, if I hadn't just come for the third time today..."

				Moving where he directed, he was glad he could see in little to no light, otherwise he'd have run into something. Elias knew where things were and wouldn't lead him into things, but he wasn't confident that without his sight he could do the same. At least not without a lot of practice.<br><br>"I can drink it, but I'd prefer not to. Crushed grapes don't do well with my system."

"Mmm. I'm glad that you came."<br><br>He molded himself to Val, wine dangling from one hand, dark hair falling back in one long, wet sheet, utterly straight.

The other man, though, would never have to meet his mother or sense her bitterness. She was little more than a gravestone in the back yard of the very large family house.

				"Anything for you." He said lightly, keeping him there in his grasp. He rather liked having Elias wet and showed his appreciation for it by licking the water off his neck, not thinking about biting at the moment.<br><br>It frightened him to think of it, but there was the possibility that Elias may ask him to end his life someday. He didn't want that to happen and he didn't know what he would do or say in response to that.<br><br>"It's alright, they've long since passed." In truth he could help but keep track of them from the shadows, following the family line that went on without him. His many-greats nephew lived a few hundred miles away. On holidays he liked to visit them and watch from outside, making sure they were alright. He would never intrude on them. They didn't deserve it.<br><br>"I would love to join you."<br><br>He wanted to go for Elias, but he couldn't help but worry about what would come of this. What would he do if his family wanted to see him often over the years? He couldn't keep it up for long, they'd notice.

				"Fantastic!" Elias smiled, curling a bit closer to the vampire though he didn't help much with warmth, as the water drying was chilly and the vampire had no heat of his own to give. <br><br>"It'll just be my father and his new wife and her children. She's not a particularly pleasant woman but she's nice enough to me. I don't realy like her kids, though...you'll see why, though. They're..." he shrugged. Brutish, boring, and uneducated. "...well, just not the most fun. Not too mean, though. My father's really sweet, though. You'll like him."<br><br>His father was a pleasant man if their ever was one, a bit of a dreamer and certainly an academic, one whose interests had always run towards the occult. <br><br>"He likes magic, and stuff...trying to study it, at least.

				He smiled lightly at Elias' excited reaction, returning his affection automatically. Val hadn't been around children in a while but figured he'd do well enough, though he'd have to watch his strength more closely than normal. It was a worry for him in situations like this that something would happen that would demand for his supernatural abilities, giving him away.<br><br>The mentioning of his father's interest in magic still had him worried, but he had seen even the most 'witchiest witch' not suspect a thing about him. Still, it was amusing to listen to what people thought to be true about his kind and other like things.<br><br>"I'm sure it's to be interesting."<br><br>"Now, are you going to keep tempting me in that towel?"

"Well," he said mildly, "If the towel is tempting you, I suppose I should get rid of it."<br><br>He leant a bit closer, then, letting Val feel every line of his water. Every water droplet, every curve, every hard spot of muscle.<br><br>He shut his eyes and smiled.<br><br>"God.

				"Ooh, I'll need a bit more wine before I become entirely drunken. Maybe you can ply me with liquor when I come to the club," he laughed, laughing as he was pushed towards the bedroom. "I feel like a sheep with you as the sheepdog. Always pushing me about to where you want me." The smile was brilliant, though, and he clearly enjoyed the way that he was ushered from one area to another.<br><br>He held onto Val, not wanting to let him go, nuzzling him gently when they finally reached the bedroom.<br><br>"I don't see why you don't like my friends. I can tell that you don't from your tone, but they've been nothing but good to me." Elias didn't sound angry, just curious and a bit surprised that his lover didn't like his friends.<br><br>Most people like the rabble-rousing but attractive enough group of young men. They were physically attractive. Also, they had that sort of popular vibe that people liked, that aura that they were part of some special club. A club that Elias only partially belonged to, much as the ticket-taker at a theatre is not a part of the orchestra.

				Elias smiled, though frowned a bit as he was told why the other man didn't like his friends, "They're not very considerate..." he admitted, slowly, "It's just...they're some of the only people who were willing to put up with me...it always takes me a long time to learn where I am, and eating out, and stuff...a lot of people get frustrated by it."<br><br>He shrugged, "They don't...treat me like an invalid."<br><br>They didn't treat him like an invalid because they didn't pay attention to him very often, but that was a point that Elias seemed to miss in its entirety.

				Unlike in the myths, garlic did not harm him but the smell of it was overpowering and killer on his senses. Paired with onions it would be even worse, but Val could deal with it. Having wanted only finger food he knew that spaghetti would be a trial for him and was glad that Elias was willing to go through it with him. In a way it was his test.<br><br>"I'll make sure to make it especially tasty for you." Kissing him once, he went to start about his task, hoping that the smell of garlic and onions wouldn't linger on him or else <em>he</em> would have to take a bath.<br><br>Getting everything out, he placed the things on the counter, memorizing how they had been in the fridge so Elias could easily find them if he didn't use all of the ingredients.

				Elias smiled and settled into a chair in the kitchen, leaning back into it. The cushions were soft under his bare skin, and he kicked his legs up onto the table, balancing the chair on two legs, leaning back and finding himself unable not to grin. He liked having his lover in the apartment.<br><br>Bones padded in - hoping for snack - immediately beginning to growl and bare his teeth at Val. Elias caught the dog by the collar with a quick flick of his hand, tugging him over to the chair, telling him firmly to sit. The dog did so, but huddled protectively around Elias's chair legs. <br><br>"Silly dog," Elias smiled, but scratched behind Bones' ears.<br><br>"He means well," he smiled, "He's normally not this aggressive with other people." Elias guessed that it was Val's being a vampire that made him so antsy - he must smell different, he guess. He wondered what Val smelled like to Bones. To Elias, he smelled like, or at least increasingly like, home.

He laughed lightly, knowing that's exactly what would happen if he showed Bones how dangerous he could be. He wouldn't harm him, just frighten him.<br><br>Really though, the dog was odd in his growling at him, not following he and Elias into the bathroom or the bedroom.<br><br>Refocusing on cooking, he was almost done with the sauce and got out the pasta, breaking the strands in half and dumping them in the boiling water.

The excitement in his voice made him smile, but the pasta had a minute or two left still.<br><br>"Well, you'd at least better wait until it leaves the pot!" After looking around for a moment he found a strainer and put it in the sink, getting a plate down and ready just as the buzzer went off on the stove.

Elias seemed to say what he thought, though he was a bit naive and overly nice, but even if he tried to hide it he would be able to detect distaste.<br><br>"Obviously you don't get out much." He teased, almost dismissing the compliment. Val couldn't really vouch for his own cooking skill but he'd have to take his word on it.<br><br>With a small smile at watching him struggle, he got up for a moment and retrieved a spoon, coming up behind Elias, ignoring Bones, and setting the spoon in his other hand.<br><br>"Try it like this." He directed his hands, picking up the spaghetti with the fork and then swirling the fork in the spoon, getting the spaghetti on it with less of a hassle. He knew Elias could tell from the movements himself, but he added on anyway, "About three to four turns."<br><br>With that he kissed his cheek before returning to his seat.

				Elias nodded, absorbing the information, all the more eager to try it. He wasn't surprised to hear that his lover didn't want him to try it, though, and with the experiences that Val had had with his maker it wasn't a matter that he was going to push.

				"I don't have to be back until two hours before the club opens. As for feeding, I don't actually need to feed so frequently. I bite you enough during sex, I don't want to drain too much." He loved biting and feeding from him, but he'd rather stop entirely than risk changing him.<br><br>Following after Elias, he crawled into the bed beside him, first taking off his shoes, and then pulled him close, wrapping his arms around him. Having a naked Elias was a wonderful thing to have. Especially when he got him all to himself.<br><br>"You sure humans need sleep?" He teased, knowing full well they did. His lover was just so tempting though.

				Elias couldn't help but smile. It was true that his lover bit him enough during sex. "Is it alright if you feed only from me? I won't get addicted or anything, will I?" he asked softly, obviously a bit worried about that. He didn't want to end up like some addict that absolutely had to have a vampire around him to be fed from at all times. <br><br>Elias curled up under the blankets and in the other man's arms. <br><br>"Oh, yes. Sleep for now. Maybe, though, you can wake me up a bit early with a pleasant surprise..." <br><br>He let his hips gently press back into the other man's groin, rubbing ever so slightly, a faint blush rolling over his beautiful cheeks.

				"You may grow to love the feel of it, but you can handle going without." If he got to used to having his saliva replenish his blood then he may start to have too much of it and need him to feed, but the chance of that was slim. Val would be careful just in case.<br><br>"Pleasant surprises are my specialties." He said into his ear as he settled in around him. There was a hand on the small of his back that kept them pressed together.<br><br>There wasn't anything more he had to say at the moment and didn't plan on it so Elias could get the sleep he needed. Actually, he might just sleep now as well and get it over with. <br><br>He only needed a few hours after all.

				He smiled faintly, "So just how I love the feel of your body against mine..." his voice trailed off slowly, going sleepily into a sweet and quiet state, eyes shut. He would wait until his lover woke him up. He was fine waiting for his lover to wake him...afterall, his lover probably would sleep a bit less than him. <br><br>Especially with the promise of waking him up with sex.<br><br>His body was becoming more relaxed and limber as his lover had more sex with him, more able to take more than he had thought possible. He was particularly excited to have his lover sneak in and 'rape' him once more.<br><br>He tugged the blankets up higher around them in his sleep.

				Val waited before he was asleep before he started to join him, his ears searching out sounds of Bones before dismissing them. It was hard to set a time for when he'd wake as a vampire, but he only needed a few hours. At least they were under the sheets so Elias wouldn't get too cold in his arms.<br><br>A few hours later he slowly awoke again. His body was slow for a moment and then quickly sped up. It never took him long to fully awake. You never knew when you'd open your eyes to danger.<br><br>Elias was still asleep in his arms and he pondered for a moment how long he should let him sleep before he awoke him. Glancing at the clock in his phone, it was getting close to noon and so it was late enough to make his move.<br><br>Slipping out of bed for a moment he took his clothes off, keeping his eyes on his lover although he hadn't woken up. Once bare, he crawled back under and slipped down Elias' body, down to his hips. He wanted to slip into him before he woke up, but that wasn't likely to happen. He hadn't taken lube down with him either.<br><br>Instead he kisses his hips lightly before licking his shaft with slow, even licks.

				Elias curled up against him throughout the night and when his lover left, he rolled onto his back to try and get more of the bed to himself, to soak up the heat that his lover had left on the sheets. The blackout curtains were still closed so only the faintest touch of sunlight came into the room. <br><br>He was soft when his lover took him into his mouth, stirring slightly, getting hard before he woke. In his dream the most wonderful things were happening. That tongue belonged to Val in his dream as well, thinking only of his lover's mouth on him.<br><br>His eyes began to open sleepily once he was hard, but he closed them again.<br><br>This was the best way to wake up.

				As he gently suckled on him, his hands slid up his body, seeking out every muscle and bit of skin he could come into contact with. Elias was so soft and warm that he wanted and needed nothing more than to have him beside him. Being like this was just a bonus.<br><br>For a moment he paused and tortured the man's nipple before he started bobbing his head and taking him in all the way.<br><br>From his breathing pattern and movement he knew he was awake and definitely enjoying the blowjob he was receiving.<br><br>Val was enjoying it as well.

				Elias let out a moan that was still thick and heavy with sleep, still a bit loose in the way that his body moved from the heavy sleep he was being roused from, though he was certainly awake now that his lover's mouth had descended upon him. <br><br>He cried out at the mouth moving on his nipple, the teeth grazing the sensitive skin, crying out and letting his fingers run through Val's hair to encourage more contact.<br><br>Then Val moved and he was suddenly being taken all the way down that incredible throat.<br><br>"Oh...oh God, Val, I..." his head fell back onto the pillows and he cried out, arching upwards, spine bowing impossibly as his fingers clutched at the clean sheets. This was sooooo much better than being woken up by an alarm clock.

				Val held onto his hips lightly as his back arched, controlling the pace they were going entirely. He hoped that Elias would always be this responsive to him and lose control at the littlest touch. It brought back memories of the 'rape' and how much he wanted to do that with him again. Perhaps Elias was thinking of that as well.<br><br>Moving one hand, he massaged the man's balls as he sucked him, lavishing loving attention to every inch of his cock. Val took the time to memorize every curve, every vein of Elias' erection. He wanted to feel and taste it even when his lover wasn't with him.<br><br>Just to show him his appreciation, he moaned and let the vibrations travel through him. It was actually starting to turn him on as well and his thoughts wandered inadvertently to intercourse. He wanted to be inside him again.
