“So, do you have fangs too?” Onyx’s question caught me off guard as I poured the tea causing a few droplets to make contact with the table, “I mean house cats have pretty sharp canines…”

“Geez…” I muttered quickly mopping up the fluid from the kitchen table with a spare piece of paper towel, “The things you say sometimes…” The vampire made no reply as he stared at me curiously, “Sure. I have fangs…” I sighed giving in to his expression, What the hell is he getting worked up about? “What does it matter if I have fangs or not?”

Onyx got up taking my face in his hands as he abandoned his tea, “Can…” He mumbled rubbing a finger against his lips, “Can I touch them?”

“Huh?” I questioned staring into his dark eyes, “Why the hell would you want to stick your fingers in my mouth?”

“I need to know if they’re sharp.”

I gently removed the hands from my face, “Drink your tea and get to work…” I placed the teapot to the stove before turning back to the pouting boy, “If you’re a good author and finish your work I’ll let you see them.”

“Would you look at that?” He grabbed his tea from the table trotting off to his study with sparkling eyes, “I’m suddenly feeling very productive…”

Please, kill me now…

. . .

“Wow…” Onyx gasped fishing his fingers around my mouth, “They’re so nice.” He smiled my face going red as he traced a finger along one of my canines, “Bigger than mine too…”

“Don’t say it like that…” I grumbled removing the fingers from my mouth, “What’s with this weird fascination of yours?”

“Just a little more…” He gave me begging eyes as he brought his fingers down to his shirt unbuttoning it halfway, “There’s something else I want to try. Would you open your mouth for me again…?” I begrudgingly did as he asked only watching as he pulled the shirt from the tops of his shoulders. His smile widened and he seemingly sparkled as he pulled me close, “Starburst will you bite me?”

“Eh?!?” I cried giving a firm push away, “Why would you want me to bite you?”

“I’m curious to know what it’s like!” He declared with a nod, “So, why don’t you give me a little taste?”

“I don’t drink blood, you idiot!” I shouted shaking my head at him.

“Well, you don’t have to drink it.” He pointed out with a laugh, “You don’t have to do it if you don’t want to… I’m sorry for pressuring you.”

“No,” I shook my head again standing on my toes so that I could reach his neck, “You’ll keep thinking about this if I don’t do this, right?” I slid my tongue along the vampire’s neck as he had done to me before, “Your heart’s beating really fast, isn’t it? What kind of pervert are you?” I bit into his neck slowly a slight wince rising in his throat as my lips parted a moment later, “You’re shaking… Sorry, did I bite you too hard?”

He squeezed me even harder letting out a deep breath against my neck as I shrank back down to my normal height, “Woah… That really was exciting…” He breathed smiling even wider, “We should really do that again sometime!”

“I’ve told you time and time again…!” I blew up running away from the vampire, “I’m your caretaker, not your boyfriend!”
