Swimming through the pool of rice and potatoes.

I breathed. I inhaled; then exhaled. Finally, my mission was done.

I sang off-key on my way home as the smoke from the oh-so-glorious sky accompanied me. It started pouring real hard and I sang louder than the beat of the raindrops. I reached the porch and there were soaked Doc Martens' boots waiting for me on the "Welcome!" mat. Turning the doorknob as it clicked open, I found you there. You hugged me and kissed me passionately.

"Did you cook dinner? It's past midnight. You know what to do." I said

With a slight tilt of your head, I knew. We spent the night together; isolated from all the things that surrounded us. I can hear the clock ticking... I have to take action.

While you were busy making us tea, I fumed for my necklace. It has a minuscule locket and with a slight push, it revealed a dagger. My beautiful possession. I pinned it between my middle finger and forefinger.You returned with the two cups of tea and I smiled as you left the cups on the table. You kissed me; I inhaled you sweet scent and I can feel the adrenaline rush. I pressed the dagger to your pulse near your neck. You looked at me straight in the eyes and gaped; waiting for a blackout. It didn't matter. What matters is your blood. I hunger to be your blood-sucking vampire; not your almost lover.
