The Party
I looked around at everyone here. The men wore nice, dark tuxedos with their hair done in a handsome, old-fashioned way. The women looked as young and beautiful as ever with their flowing gowns as they had their hair done in an elegant, classy way. People danced and laughed, sipping on blood. On the stage, there were two vampires, a man and a women.
They were the king and the queen who are in charge of the whole vampire society I assumed. The women wore a huge black and red dress that flowed every which way. The man wore a gray tuxedo with his blonde hair combed back. They talked every so often and stared at the guests with hawk-like eyes. The woman's eyes set on me before she came over.
Oh God!! What if I get found out! What if she knows! What if she doesn't recongnize me? Then, what will I say!
Gosh, I have to calm myself down. Vampires, like any monster, can smell fear. I can't show them what I actually feel. I had to shove all my panic deep down. I took a deep breath in and out.
"Hello there, I am Merebeth. I believe we have never met before," she said, in an elegant British voice. "Hi, I am Elizabeth. I'm not much for parties," I replied. "Did you even get a little excited to go to the Party of the Century? It is the only party we have that happens every one hundred years," she added.
She pointed to a banner that said, "Party of the Century" Wow, I totally get it..Party of the Century. "Yes, my sister, Scarlet told me about it. It sounds quite lovely," I replied. "Hmm, have fun then, dear," she added.
She looked me over once more, as if confused and disgusted by my prescence. She left back to the stage. She whispered in her husband's ear and he looked at me. I could feel panic arise inside me. My heart rate is almost as fast as a cheetah's.
He looked away and I could hear him say, "Stop, don't worry." He then kissed his wife lightly on the cheek. I smiled to myself at how cute their love is. Aww, I want a love like that. A love that can and always be so strong for forever.
Suddenly, Scarlet tapped on my shoulder. I turned around to see Scarlet with a sexy, tall vampire guy. My heart stopped as I almost forgot to breathe. He has black hair, dark red eyes and really pale skin. He has on a black tuxedo as he handed me a red rose.
I took it, smelling it. It smelt SO fresh and beautiful. I smiled at him, the flirtiest smile I could pull off. He smiled back with a bright white smile, his fangs touching his bottom lip, ever so softly. I blushed a deep red and looked away to recover my feelings.
Gosh, who is this guy? I needed to have at least one dance with him. I have to be with him. I wonder what his lips would feel like against mine..Stop, I just met him!!
"This is my brother, Estavon," Scarlet said. Estavon took my hand and kissed it so gently before, pulling away. I could now smell his deep, musky cologne that smelt intoxicating. "I-I'm E-Elizabeth," I added, nervously. I felt as if hypnotized and awe struck just looking into his eyes.
"Nice to meet you Elizabeth," he replied with a soft, low voice. Scarlet rolled her eyes. "Brother, stop being such a flirt," Scarlet stated. Estavon laughed. "Who says I'm flirting, sister?" He asked. "This one isn't for eating," she added, seriously.
Estavon looked at her and back at me, saying nothing. What is that supposed to mean? "Don't do anything you will regret brother. You hurt her, you die," she said, even more serious. Estavon rolled his eyes and nodded in agreement.
"Anyways, I better go. Have fun getting to know one another!" She added cheerfully. She ran off to a vampire guy who she started intensly making out with. Oh my Lord. I quickly looked away and looked back at Estavon, who is staring down at me.
He grabbed the rose, broke off some of the stem and put it behind my ear. A shiver went up my spine as he touched my skin. I blushed again but, more redder. He stared at me for a few moments before finally saying something.
"You are truly so goregous," he said. My heart fluttered in happiness. I have to be careful though. I can't let my heart get the best of me. "Um thanks. You are er um handsome," I added, nervously fidgeting.
A slow, romantic song came on. "Shall I take this dance, my lady?" He asked politely. He held his hand out and I took it. He took me to the dancefloor. He wrapped his arms around my waist, sending more shivers of delight shoot inside me.
I wrapped my arms around his neck. We started dancing at a rhythmatic pace for a bit. He dipped me low and brought me back up. His mouth and fangs are only centimeters from my neck. I can feel his cool breah fanning my neck.
I tilted my head back, without thinking. Kiss me, bite me, love me! He pulled away as the song ended. He looked at me, letting go. Dissapointment set down on me, as if acting as a huge weight on my heart.
Estavon just left me, alone on the dancefloor. He left to a room on the far corner of the party. The red door shut with a loud thud behind him, making the impact of sadness settle in even more. Why did he have to leave? I want him to stay though..
Scarlet came up to me. "Where did Estavon go?" She asked. I pointed to the red doored room. "Oh, Don't go in there," she said.
"Why not?" I asked.
"Because you don't wanna have nightmares. You definitely will not like what you see. Just don't go in there, ok? I trust you not to," she replied. I nodded my head yes.
"Ok, I gotta get myself some blood from my boyfriend. See ya later sis," she added. She left to a different room with her boyfriend. Oy, this means they were biting each other. Vampire relationships are weird to me..
I looked over to the red door. I couldn't help but, walk over to it. It is so discrete and far away from the party. I wonder what happens in here. Was this where the vampires take the humans to drink?
If that was the case, I wanted to be as far away from this as possible. I am a little curious though..I mostly just am desperate to see Estavon. No, what the hell! I told Scarlet I wouldn't!!
I will not let curiousity or longing get the best of me..Or will I? I feel as if I do need to see Estavon again. One little peak can't hurt..I found myself putting my hand on the handle with hesitant caution.
Scarlet's words echoed in my head, "You definitely will not like what you see." I can handle this! I have to but, I still feel regretful gor betraying Scarlet like this. Oh well, she will forgive me hopefully. I turned the door handle and opened the door. What I see, no human can be ready for.
I see Estavon and a few other vampires biting girls. There is blood all over the walls as I look down the huge hallway. The girls scream or are coughing up blood. I am scared to death but, have to get the courage to get over it. I shut the door behind me and sit on one of the benches by the wall.
Gosh, this place is so fucking horrifying and nasty. A little bit of throw up came up and I swallowed it back down. The bad smell here is so strong but, I have to not throw up. The vampires will know I am human if I do. How the fuck can vampires live like this?
At least there is only a little blood over here. I can not believe how so much blood can be gruesomly all over the walls like this. Estavon now dug his black talons into the girls chest, ripping out her heart. He licked it and squeezed it, making it explode all over. He smiled a pychotic smile, his teeth stained red.
I shivered, this time in fear not delight. The smell of so much blood still made me wanna throw up but, I had to keep swallowing my puke with disgust. The sight of everything made me wanna cry with remorse. Yet, I still stay here. Why? Because of a crazy infactuation I have with Estavon!?
Gosh, I am really dumb and dangerously curious. Estavon got off his knees and took a seat next to me. There is blood on his suit, his face, all over him. His smell of cologne had dissapeared and now, he smelt of blood and murder. "Wow, Elizabeth, you have great taste in guys!" I sarcastically thought to myself.
"Hello, lovely Elizabeth. Want someone to drink?" He asked. My stomach turned at the thought of drinking someone's blood, let alone, taking their life. "Uh, no thanks. I already drank before I got here," I lied.
He stared deeply into my eyes, as if searching for an answer. I quickly looked away. "So, how do you know my sister?" He asked. "We are like the bestest of friends," I answered. "Hmm, where do you come from?" He asked.
"Transylvania," I replied quickly, lying. Transylvania, really, Elizabeth? He laughed, amused. "Like where Dracula came from?" He asked. "Um, yes but, I am not related to him," I added.
"Ah, ok then. So, you are positive you are a vampire?" He asked, as he moved closer to me. I looked deeply into his eyes. "Yes, I am," I answered. He seemed like he is still in disbelief but, isn't gonna ask anything anymore.
"So, what do you think of me?" He asked, winking. Butterflies fluttered in my stomach as I felt my cheeks grow warm. "You seem nice, like you are a good dancer. Right now, the whole blood all over you thing is unappealing," I replied, giggling a little. "Can't handle it?" He asked.
"Uh, of course. I am a vampire after all," I answered. He just smiled evilly. "Wanna bite me?" He asked. I looked at him confused and disgusted. Is this a sexual thing?
"No, why would I do that?" I asked. "To get a drink," he answered. "I already said I-" I began before getting interupted. "You are a human because no vampire can resist any blood. Especially not another vampire's blood," he whispered in my ear.
I stared at him with shock and fear. "I-I don't know what you are talking about," I lied. "Oh really?" He asked. He cocked his head to one side evilly. I just sat there frozen, paralized in panic and fear.
He grabbed me by the arm tightly, hurting me a bit. He ran all the way to the end of the hall quickly. He opened this black door that led to the alley. He shut the door once we were outside. He pinned me up against the wall violently, my feet dangling off the ground.
I don't know why or how but, I am oddly into what he is doing right now. Gosh Elizabeth! Get your mind off of romance! He looked deeply into my eyes. "Why?" He asked. "I-I just wanted to come here," I answered.
He sighed. "It is Scarlet, isn't it?" He asked. I stayed silent. He rolled his eyes and set me back on the ground, gently. "How did you know?" I asked.
"I am not stupid Elizabeth. I smelt your blood when we were dancing," he answered. "I am sorry," I said with regret in my voice. I should have never went. Then, I wouldn't have gotten Scarlet in trouble.
He came up to me and cupped my cheek, looking deeply into my eyes. "Don't be sorry. I am glad I met you. Let's just hope no one else has found out about it," He replied. I nodded, unable to speak because he has me hypnotized, oncea again.
Blood is now on my cheek since it is still on his hand. It doesn't even matter if he kills people or if he gets blood on me. I am a foolish, vulnerable woman who has fallen too deeply for a monster. It is a pity, I could have a normal human life but, still I am fascinated with him. He is the one who is holding my heart.
He quickly looked away and is about to leave. "Wait Estavon!" I added, helplessly. "Yes?" He asked. "Will I see you again after this?" I asked. He laughed wickedly, amused.
"Hun, you don't want to see a monster like me. I am only gonna corrupt you in sinful ways," he answered. "Oh, ok," I added sadly. I held back tears that start to form in my eyes. Why do I always have to get so attatched?
"Well, goodbye sweetie. Have a nice life," he added. Tears start streaming down his face but, he blinks them away. He quickly flies into the darkness of the night. I look after him but, he vanished in a blink of an eye.
I can't believe he just left. Is this goodbye for forever? More tears came down my face as depression settled in. Why did he have to leave? I want him to stay.
Scarlet came out to find me. "What the hell are you doing out here!?" She asked. "Estavon knows I am human. He left me here," I answered, choking on my words. "Hun, I know you might have gotten attatched but, he will not go with any human," Scarlet added.
"Why not?" I asked. "Because he is badly addicted to human blood. He has killed many of his human girlfriends before for fun. He is dangerous Elizabeth. I am surprised he did not bite you," she answered.
"Aren't all vampires addicted to human blood though?" I asked. "Well, some vampires drink animals. Estavon I say is addicted since he drinks 100's of people a day," she replied. "Can't you stop him?" I asked. "Unfortunately not since it has always been a problem for him for centuries," she added.
"Oh, I am sorry," I said. "It isn't your fault. It is mine for bringing you here. Now, we must go," she replied. I got up and followed her back to our apartment.
We both got inside and locked the door. I went to my room. I took off my dress and put on my black tank top and black silk pajams pants. I lied in bed, clearing my mind. I soon fell fasy asleep from exhaustion.
