V for vampires, 2/?
Chapter 2
It was the beginning of summer, the sun was shining early and it was bright by all means. That one morning was even brighter than normally or so it felt. I was well prepared for waking up because for me it was always a battle. I had had a dream about him. The normal one where I was happy and he loved me. And even in the dream I knew it was only a dream. A sweet escape. I knew when I would wake up, the dream would be gone, nothing left but the memories and even they would start to faint and get blurry the second I’d open my eyes. But of course there was no other option so in the end I had to do it.
And the moment I did it, I was waiting for a massive headache to come because of the wet night I spent last night. To be honest, I didn’t even remembered how I managed to get back to my apartment, but I’m glad I did. In a weird way I was already used to not knowing where to wake up. This one had been going on for a long while. I was enjoying that my reckless behavior got all my friends all worried and they would call me in the morning to make sure I was okay. And then sometimes, they would come and pick me up from the stranger’s house I’d ended up in. Often it was Kai who did it, but Ruki called also. Maybe he called only because the others made him to, maybe he sounded frustrated and the really-I-couldn’t-care-less atmosphere was there, but oh yeah, he also called. And that was why I kept on doing this.
But back to the headache that wasn’t there. I furrowed my eyebrows and lifted my head a bit. Just a bit. Nothing was hurting, my head was fine.
“What the fuck, where’s the fucking hangover?!” I murmured landing my head back to the pillow. Next to me a naked girl I’ve never seen before, moved a bit in her sleep, but I didn’t even turned to look at her. Why would I, she was just a fuck. Didn’t even remember the name. Nor did I came when we had sex. I often didn’t and for that I blamed the girls for not being Ruki. So easy it was.
I turned to look at the clock on the bedside table. 10 am. Great, nobody’s gonna call in the next hour or so. I was early awake. For a guy who should have had a big fat hangover except he hadn’t. I sighed and closed my eyes. The dream I had earlier wasn’t coming back. As usual. The girl moved again, I heard the sheets rustling under us. Was she awake also? This early? Weren’t we not so drunk I thought we were last night?
The next thing I heard was a soft sigh and then became silent again. Okay, she was still asleep.
After few minutes I decided I couldn’t stay in the bed anymore so got up but the minute I stepped into the living room I thought I was going to die. The headache, the fucking son of a bitch-headache. There was so bright I couldn’t even open my eyes and still the light hurt my eyed, my head. I fell on my knees and covered my face with my hands.
“Shit, shit, shit, shit, stop the sun, shit, shit”, I kept on crying in pain. It really was pain, a real pain. Hurt so much I thought I was going to vomit. But after what felt years, but probably was not more than minutes, the brightness was gone as was the pain. I opened one of my eyes shyly and saw the girl standing in front of me. The girl from my bed. She looked somewhat amused, but bored in a way.
“Oh please, you don’t have to scream”, she said turning away from me and headed towards the bathroom, muttering to herself. “Can’t you handle a little pain?”
I blinked.
First of all, I didn’t scream. Did I? Second, how would she know, why did she know it hurt?
For a second I was thinking it was some evil plan of that girl, that she wanted revenge from me having been so bad at sex last night. Because I really was, so bad at times that I was seriously thinking about just quitting and making the girl to leave and find a better fuckpartner. But of course I didn’t and in the end it end up badly for both of us, but I still let her sleep in my house. She was looking so young, tired and just plainly cute. Though now she was anything than cute, really, I was going to cut her head off for making this to me.
No wait. That was stupid, this is stupid. I shouldn’t blame her. She did nothing wrong, except maybe coming with me in the first place.
I heard the sound of water and my eyebrows jumped higher. Wow, she was really making herself at home. Oh well, maybe it was just acceptable, I just did gave her the worst fuck she ever had. And then I even kept blaming her of the sun to be so bright today. What a jerk I am. I stood up from the floor and headed my way to the kitchen.
I still felt a bit nauseous even she closed the curtains and the apartment was barely dim. But before I even got to finish the sentence in my mind, the pain was back. I tried to hide my face or turn away from the window, but the light was everywhere in the room.
“Go away, shit go away!” I screamed without noticing it myself.
The next second I knew, the pain was gone, the light was gone. But in my head, it still kept on spinning. I certainly didn’t want to open my eyes.
“Are you really that stupid, ‘kira?” I heard her voice somewhere near to me. Oh, she came to rescue me again. That sucks. I opened my eyes slowly and met with hers. She was looking extremely annoyed, kind of reminded me of Ruki when he was being bitchy. I almost smiled, but then something hit me. She was talking to me like we’ve known for ages, she knew my name. Honestly, I never told my real name to anybody when the idea was only to get company during the night-time. Besides, Reita just sounded much cooler, am I right?
So how did she know…?
“How do you know my name?” I splurted in confusion.
“Oh, ‘kira, I know everything about you. Now stop being a pussy and act like a man. The pain is not so bad after you get used to yourself.”
What the fuck?
“Are you a stalker?” You weird, weird woman.
She laughed at me and I wanted to punch her. Of course I didn’t, but really the situation was not funny, at all. My head was still a bit sore and that girl I barely knew was laughing at me when she was the one who should be angry. Bad fuck, remember?
“What is wrong with you?!” She reached to get me up from the floor and smiled. I was glaring at her, but took her hand and got up holding my forehead. Then I looked at her again.
Wow, she was really pretty.
She looked back at me for a moment smiling lightly, but then the moment was gone although when she spoke, the tone of her voice was softer than before.
“You mind if I explain something?”
I shrugged. “Be my guest.”
Any explanation would be improvement.
She reached to move a hair from my face, but before I got to ask anything, she placed her fingers on my neck. I flinched a bit, her touch was hurting like I would have an open wound in there. She smiled at my movement and whispered softly. “ You’re getting used to it.”
“Getting used for what?”
She nodded lightly towards my neck as if that would explain everything.
“This. I can’t be helping you all the time, but you’re going to be fine.” I was going to open my mouth for a question, but she continued before I had the time to do so.
“Just remember to avoid sun light the first months.”
Okay, what the-
She smiled again. I believe I looked extremely buzzered at the moment.
“I’m gonna get dressed now, okay? And when I’m done, I’m gonna leave so you can start your life.”
“What do you mean start my life?”
“You’ll see.” She reached to kiss my cheek and patted my shoulder before disappearing into my room.
I stayed where I did, not know what else to do. That weird woman got me all speechless and with tons of questions. Just perfectly great.
