Chapter 7

An hour later I walked up to the bar. The brunette was still working, though she looked rather tired.

“Double shot of O negative and double of B positive if you have it.” I called out.

The bartender nodded, slid two glasses over towards me and then handed me two water bottles.

“What are these for?” I asked.

“You’ve been busy tonight. Quite a show back there. You might be a vampire but you still need to hydrate on something other than blood.” She replied, giving me a slight smirk.

I’d never seen a vampire blush, so I didn’t know if it was possible. If it was, I’m sure I was bright red.

“Thanks.” I mumbled, grabbing the water bottles.

“What’s your name anyway?” She asked.

“Scott.”

“I’m Raven. I get the feeling that you’re not exclusive with that girl you were with.”

“Uh, no. We’re not together like that.” I stammered.

“I see. It’s good to be a vampire huh? Rules don’t seem to apply to you all huh?”

“You all? You’re human?” I asked.

“Yeah.” She replied.

“How the hell did you end up working at a vampire club?”

Raven shrugged.

“I don’t freak out at much and I got bills to pay like everyone else.”

“Have you ever been a feeder?” I asked.

“No, not my thing. I like to be picky about who gets to nibble on me.” Raven gave me a slight, flirty grin.

“I see.” I stammered.

“Well, after you catch your breath, you want to take a walk down the hall?” Raven asked, dropping her elbows onto the bar and leaning closer towards me.

“What’s at the end of the hall?” I asked.

“A door to the back alley.”

“What’s back there?”

“Me.” Raven grinned, dragging her finger down the side of my face to my chest.

My mouth fell open.

“Uh, I’d love to. But, maybe another time. I need to keep an eye on her. She’s new.” I babbled.

“Well, isn’t that sweet. Maybe another time when you’re not babysitting.” Raven rolled her eyes and stood up.

I watched as she turned around. I let out a big sigh as I stared at her ass for a moment, then grabbed the shot glasses and water bottles and returned to where I’d left Kayla.

She was chatting with a man who smelled like a human. It took me all of a second to figure out that he was a fang banger, trying to flirt with her.

The good news was that Kayla wasn’t bright enough, or experienced enough to pick up on it.

“Hey man, you’re in my seat.” I said, puffing up.

The man immediately got up and ran off and I dropped into the couch next to her.

“Thanks a lot DAD.” Kayla eye rolled as I leaned back into the couch.

“You’re welcome.” I grinned.

“Took you long enough.” Kayla scolded.

I thrust a bottle of water and a shot glass in her hand. I quickly bottomed my glass and unscrewed the cap on my water bottle.

“Thirsty much?” Kayla exclaimed as she watched me gulp the water.

“It’s really hot in here. You good?” I asked.

“Yeah, just tired. I’ll be fine, just catching my breath.” Kayla nodded, giving me a grin.

Kayla sniffed and then squished her face up.

“Wow, aren’t you just a slut tonight?” She scolded.

“What are you talking about?” I stammered.

“I’m a vampire but I’m still a girl. I saw you flirting with the bartender. I’m pretty sure I can smell her on you too. Going for another booty call after banging me? Wow, classy.” Kayla retorted.

“Hey, is there a problem? Can’t I have fun? I came back here, didn’t I?” I shot back.

“No, you can have all the fun you want. I mean, I don’t wanna hold you back or anything. So, fuck it. I’m gonna have some fun too!” Kayla fired right back.

Before I could reply, Kayla jumped up and ran to the bar.

I followed behind her, giving her just a little distance.

I could see Kayla talking to Raven, who was looking a little bewildered. She glanced over at me with a questioning look. I nodded and Raven handed Kayla a drink. Kayla quickly sucked it down and asked for another. Raven looked at me again and I shrugged.

“Woohoo! I’m a vampire! I’m a vampire!” Kayla yelled drunkenly at no one in particular.

I looked up at her from the bar stool.

“OK, I think that’s enough. Time to come down.” I called out.

“No way, DAD. I’m having fun!” Kayla yelled down at me from the top of the bar. She was dancing and swaying dangerously close to the edge.

“Girl, you’ve had enough. Get down, NOW or we toss you out.” Raven yelled up at her.

Kayla stuck out her tongue at Raven like a toddler.

I stood up and offered Kayla my hand, which she took as she jumped down off the bar top.

I threw a wad of bills on the bar to settle her huge tab. Raven scooped them up and winked at me.

“Come on, let’s go home.” I said, hooking my arm through Kayla’s.

If there was any question as to if vampires could get drunk, Kayla had answered it. The bright side was that I was giving her mixed drinks with blood in them as well, but she was too wasted to care.

I managed to get Kayla into my car and as we drove away, she rolled the window down.

“I’m a vampire! WOO HOO! I’m a VAMPIRE! I’m a VAMPIRE!” She screamed at people walking along the sidewalk.

I sped away.

“Did you know that I’m a vampire?” Kayla asked, turning towards me, finally putting her rear in her seat.

“Yup.”

“You’re a vampire too.” Kayla giggled.

“I’m aware.” I rolled my eyes.

“You drink blood.”

“Yes I do. You do too.”

“I don’t like it very much. It doesn’t taste very good.” Kayla announced drunkenly.

“You get used to it.”

“We had sex.”

I chuckled a bit at that.

“Yes, we did.”

“It was great. Vampire sex is great.” Kayla giggled.

“Yeah, it can be.”

“Can we screw some more when we get home? I’m really fucking horny.” Kayla asked.

A drunken vampire girl looking for drunken sex. Who would have guessed?

I woke up a few hours later to a scream that I’d never heard before. I shot out of bed and ran down the stairs, still naked.

“Kayla? Kayla? Where are you? Is everything OK?” I called out. As I rounded the corner, I could see sunlight streaming into the living room and my heart sank. As I made the turn into the living room, I could see Kayla standing next to the doorway, wrapped in a sheet.

“Look! Look!” Kayla exclaimed with a grin on her face from ear to ear. I looked down to see Kayla had her hand out and was holding it in the beam of light.

“Holy shit!” I yelled.

“It doesn’t hurt! It doesn’t hurt!” Kayla screamed happily.

“That’s great! That’s really fucking awesome!”

“Oh my gawd, I missed the Sun! I missed it so much!” Kayla yelled.

I nodded. I got it. I understood. Day walking is a huge step for a vampire and it’s the beginning of some semblance of normalcy for our very unusual lives.
