The vampire sighed and stared in his mirror, contemplating the disaster that was his now biohazard-orange hair. The dye-mixing had gone fatally wrong, and he knew his hair was fried if he tried to fix it that night, so he would have to live in humility for a few days to give his hair a break. Lylith, he knew, would hate it, but that was just ( Read more... )

Lylith looked at her phone in contemplation a few minutes. Their last conversation had gone strangly well considering the circumstances. She had managed to leave Lo alone for a whole day and a half. She wasn't a clingy girlfriend, she was just a clingy friend... towards the person that just happened to be her boyfriend.

She muttered quietly to herself then looked down to her bruised wrist. Lo was a vampire, which meant he sucked blood, not that he could sense when someone had inconveniently hurt themselves, right? She bit her lip then finally got around to dialing Lo's number. Hopefully she wasn't interrupting anything, then again, hopefully she was.

Milkshake by Kelis started ringing on his phone, the little gray cell vibrating its way across the table it was seated on. Lo's attention was torn away from his hair for a moment so he could retrieve the cell phone, and he smiled a little when he saw the number on the LCD screen.

"Hey."

"Hey. I know I ask you this a lot, but are you busy?"

timeunchained August 30 2008, 00:07:32 UTC

He glanced over to the mirror in his bathroom and then sighed. "No. Come on over."

"I heard you sigh. Are you busy?"

"No.. it isn't what you think." You'll see when you come over.

"Alright, I'll be over in about ten minutes." She smiled then hung up her phone, grabbing her jacket and scarf on the way out. Within minutes she was knocking on Lo's door, looking up and down the street cautiously. She really hated coming to the Red Light District. Eventually she'd make Lo move, eventually.

Lo took one last glance in the mirror before pulling on a winter hat that covered his ears and hair, and opened the door. His apartment was still sparkling clean - thank god for his slight OCD - and it smelled fresh, like limes, or lemons.

"Hey," he greeted, a shy smile gracing his lips as he held the door for her.

She smiled and nodded as she stepped in and set her coat on his couch. "You weren't busy I hope. It smells good, not like sex, so I guess that's a good thing."

What she said came out kind of harsh, but that wasn't how she meant it, at least not entirely. She gave him a quick peck on the cheek then smiled again.

"So, I was thinking..."

He inwardly winced, but knew she had a right to say something like that. It wasn't everyday that one found her boyfriend prostituting himself out.

"You were thinking..?" the vampire began, inquisitively, leaning against the wall as he watched her think.

Lylith became nervous with what she was originally going to say, deciding against it. Instead she looked at him, and her eyes widened as eyebrows furrowed together in an almost disgusted/surprised look.

"W-What did you do to your hair?"

Bartholomew hastened to pull the hat over his eyes, trying to completely cover his hair. "My hair.. there was a bit of an accident.. but I'll fix it tomorrow, or however soon Trix can help me." Which meant whenever Trixie wasn't high or busy with her own clients. Coinciding times was a bitch.

lostinsecrets September 2 2008, 00:55:29 UTC

Lylith just sort of nodded at him then rolled her eyes and took his hand as she headed for the bathroom.

"I'll do it. Maybe someday I'll get to see your natural color, you know, longer than for two hours."

"You can't. It is already pretty fried as it is. I need to wait a few days..." He took a seat on the couch and grabbed his bottle of Febreez, squirting some on the cushions. "I will just wear a hat around, and take off work for a bit..."

lostinsecrets September 2 2008, 01:02:29 UTC

She let out a loud sigh as she sat next to him, looking down at her hands.

"I thought we decided that you were going to quit. You know I don't like it... I thought we had this sorted out."

timeunchained September 2 2008, 01:05:00 UTC

He shook his head, glancing over to her with a detached expression. "I told you, I need it to survive. It's how I get blood. It's an addiction, too. Sexual addicts are seriously fucked, Lyl. We only have one way to sate our addiction, and it isn't like we can help it."

It was a petty argument, but it was valid enough.

lostinsecrets September 2 2008, 01:08:59 UTC

"I thought you said you weren't a sex addict. Since when has that changed? That's not even what we're talking about, Bartholomew. If you're seriously an addict, go to meetings. And I thought you were drinking off Joshua."

She couldn't look at Lo again, she was too frustrated and upset in one. Was it really that hard of a thing to control?
