The Vampire and the Goth Ch. 6
As I watched David drive away, I felt my phone vibrate to remind me that I had a text message I hadn't picked up yet. I smiled and promised myself I wouldn't look at my phone until I got into my apartment. That promise lasted until the elevator doors closed behind me.
The message was from Elizabeth, of course.
Hi Stosh!
It's Elizabeth. R U up?
Then, 10 minutes later:
I guess you're asleep
: - (
Turns out I have the afternoon off. Maybe we can hang out?
Let me know.
Call me when you wake up.
The next message was nothing more than an image of a baguette and what appeared to be a pot of honey.
I wasn't sure what that meant, so I replied with a question mark.
She responded:
LOL
Her next message was a symbol of a rhinoceros and a camel, and she followed that with a kissy face, hearts, and a winking eye.
I responded with a heart, and then I wrote:
I'm sorry, but I need to rest. :-(
After sending the message, I felt bad, like I was blowing her off. So I responded again:
I'd love to see you once I wake up, but I'm afraid I won't be much fun for you until after I've gotten some rest.
I didn't hear from her for a few minutes. Then she sent back:
I don't mind if you don't, and
I could probably use a nap too. Want some company?
I sighed, thinking of how long it had been since I woke up next to a beautiful woman.
I'd love to wake up with you here.
She responded quickly with an image of a heart.
I grinned like an idiot.
I'll let the doorman know to let you in.
I woke up late in the afternoon, with Elizabeth in my arms. Somehow I had wound myself around her, my legs between her legs and her head under my chin. It was a wonderful feeling, and as I began to wake up, Elizabeth stirred.
Elizabeth rolled over and kissed my neck and chest.
"Good morning gorgeous," I said, running my hands through her silky hair.
She smiled at me. "Good afternoon, handsome stranger."
"I'm not a stranger to you," I smiled
She chuckled. "You're stranger than most."
Then she kissed me.
"You're so beautiful," I whispered.
She smiled at me but didn't say anything. Instead, she lay down next to me and put her head on my chest. I cradled her in my arms and enjoyed the moment. She sighed contentedly.
We had been laying together for about five minutes when she asked, "What happened here last night?"
I was confused. "What do you mean?"
"Well, when I went into the bathroom, I found a bloody shirt with bullet holes."
I laughed. "Oh, that belongs to my friend, David."
She gave me a very strange look, so I had to tell her about the night I'd had.
"Okay. Let me see if I've got this straight. Your friend is going to kill his vampire boyfriend."
"Yes."
"And he wanted your help?"
"Yes."
She didn't say anything, so I continued.
"In fairness to David, his boyfriend tried to kill him first."
She chuckled. "Well, okay, that makes sense, I guess. Turnabout is fair play, right?"
We lay there in silence for a while as I stroked her back.
"You're not freaked out about this, are you?"
She leaned over and kissed me. "No. The scary stories are part of your charm."
We both laughed a little as she snuggled down closer to me. "So, David took your car?"
"Yes. But he left his car for me to use, so that's good."
"How is that good?" she asked.
"It's a Mercedes C-Class convertible."
Her face immediately changed. "Oh!" Then she broke out in a big smile. "I would look so cute in a car like that."
"You would look beautiful with the wind in your hair," I said, partly to impress her, but it was the truth.
She blushed. "Yeah, but how are you going to drive a convertible with the top down?"
"I can handle some sun. And just because it's night doesn't mean the top has to stay up."
I smiled at her and pulled her on to my chest. She kissed me and sighed.
"Did you sleep well?" she asked.
"Like the dead."
She laughed.
"Well, I hope you're rested up because tonight, we're going to my house and my sister is going to give you a hard time."
"Oh yes," I said. "She wants to make sure I'm good enough for her baby sister."
Elizabeth laughed. "Yeah right! She wants to talk your ear off about farm animals and how cool it is that they have a couple of extra stomachs."
I snorted. "It's been a long time since I lived on a farm," I said.
"Just let her talk. The sound of her own voice practically makes her cum."
A couple of hours later, we were in David's car, driving to Elizabeth's house. It was just past sunset and Elizabeth looked gorgeous. She grinned at me, obviously enjoying the car ride. I realized why David had bought this car - not only would it impress the hell out of his dates, no one would ever suspect a vampire of driving a convertible.
As we pulled off the highway, I noticed a nice-looking wine store. I pulled into a parking space.
"What are you doing?" Elizabeth asked.
"I don't want to show up empty-handed, so I thought I would bring some wine."
