Goodnight, Love (1/1)
Thinking about being able to see and hug my brother again, I couldn’t sleep, tossing and turning throughout the night. Every once in a while Baekhyun would come in and check on me, worried I was having a nightmare. He sleeps in the living room, he is very much against sleeping in the same bed until after our affirmation cycle is finished. From what I understand, the cycle is a month long. I must drink his blood at least once every 12 hours, and he must drink mine at least once every three days to keep the cycle going. But he seems tired, I wonder if I should let him drink more often than that? What am I thinking? We’re talking about drinking blood……But I guess I am a vampire now…And if I keep drinking his blood every 12 hours and he only drinks once every 3 days, then will he be okay? Just as I turned over again, a soft knock on my door and he opened the door cautiously. As soon as the door cracked open, the sweet scent of his blood filled the room and I could feel my throat starting to burn. “Hi, you okay? Still can’t sleep?” He asked softly and I nodded, sitting up. “I’m sorry I keep waking you up.” I apologized, scooting over so he can sit down next to me. He did so and shook his head with a small smile. As he shook his head, his scent filled my nostrils, making my throat burn even more, becoming sore. “No not at all. I came to check on you. It’s almost the 12 hour mark, you should feed before it passes.” He said, pulling his sweatshirt over his head. Still slightly embarrassed, I looked down as he did so, gently laying it down on the bed when it was off. Looking up at him, the moonlight shone on his neck and I could already see my vision changing. My throat burned even more than before and I could almost taste his blood on my tongue. As I leaned closer to him, he gently placed his hands on my waist, steadying me. But once he touched me, my thirst calmed and I felt that I was even slightly in control of this new part of me. Feeling this mystifying, but slight burn in my throat, I leaned in, staring at that bright metallic red vein in his neck. He grunted as I sunk my teeth into his neck, his hands tightening their grip on my waist as I felt his skin break open once again, allowing me to drink his savory blood. The burn soon receded, leaving me completely clear headed and satisfied. Licking the bite marks before pulling away, I felt him shiver as I glanced at the holes that were already starting to disappear and sat back on my heels. Before completely gathering himself, I caught a glimpse of a look of bliss on his face. He then smiled back at me adoringly, wiping his blood off of my lips.
