The night falls over the city of Newyork. The snow falling gently to the ground each flake of snow glowing white in the moon light. His foot steps unheard as he moves through battery park the world a white blanket with trees strip bare of there wear standing in dark contrast to the snow. His mind was ticking away he needed a place to stay another night in a hotel room was out of the question.

Oh yea maid comes in opens the curtains and I burst into flames that would be a great way to go. He thinks to him self as his eyes happen to glance a ad for a apartment laying on a bench he quickly reads over it. It was for a small apartment that had just become free that day.

"Let me guess the rent died and now they need to move some one in" The man says to a stray dog that had started to bark at him.

He quickly sets off moving to the street soon getting a cab. After giving the driver directions his gaze falls to the window. He wasn't looking at the city passing by we was looking at a reflection of a 21 year old kid that was any thing but young. His blond hair and the soft features of a teen not yet learned in the ways of the world. But his eyes giving away the fact he had seen the hells of war and watched the people he cared about and love die as he never aged.

The cab pulls up to the apartment he quickly pays and walks in. The inside bland white he walks through a open door and spots a old lady. He learns she is the land lord and after giving her one of many fake Id's and talking to her for 2 hours as she tries to learn about who he is while telling him about the poor family that lost there daughter and had to move out do to grief. He pays her a years rent in cash takes the key. He walks up the stairs to the top floor finding his apartment. He goes to open the door and nothing happens after a few more failed attempts he starts to lose his cool.

"Just my luck will you Just open" He yells as he Bangs on the door not noticing the door behind him his eyes starting to glow a bright red from his anger.
 
What was all that noise? Rue thought as she yawned and looked at the time. It was past dinner and she had fallen too far into her book once again. Streaching, Rue placed the book down on the oak corner table and stood. Her starlight emerald eyes flickered over to the door as she walked over with her arms crossed over her chest. Part of her thought it was the neighbors down below. Or more importantly, their kids that got a kick making noise to annoy anyone who would pay attention.

Not this time.

Rue thought as she grabbed the straw broom and went to the door. This time she would send the teens a messege to leave her well enough alone. A few good wacks and theyd run off and no one would be the wiser. With a twist of the knobe, it groaned from not being oiled, and she opened the door ready to swing it at the trouble makers...
 
He turns with around at the sound of the door looking the young woman in the eyes. His eyes going for the glowing red to a soft green. He quickly relaxes with a smile on his face. He knew he must look out of place in a red silk shirt black dress pants in a apartment In habited by the working class. He lets his gaze fall over her beautiful form. He was getting very aroused when his eyes met hers. And the fire went out of him.

Shit she had to have seem my eyes! I don't need people asking questions I'v only been here five minutes and might have blown it. He thinks to him self as he looks at the broom quickly deciding a tactic to get her to maybe forget.

"Please don't I broom me" He says trying to act like the lovable fool some how knowing his plan was falling flat on its face.

"sorry for the noise my door is jammed I think" He holds his key up "Im your new neighbor " He smiles pointing at the door.

Great I live for 100 years keeping my secret safe and now a little girl with a broom is going to be my down fall. Sure I could turn her but that be breaking my first rule. His mind is working over time not sure why he was so nervous around her as his eyes moved back across her body. I hope she is single and looking..... His mind freezes shit he cant have a crush can he? It would never work out he never aging and her moving closer to the end of her mortal clock. It could never work could it ? The last question scared him.
 
Now she felt like an idiot! Almost attacking someone she didn't know, and her new Neighbor! Her face flushed red with embarressment, but she did catch the red glow in his eyes. Blinking, it was gone and she didn't think anything diffrent.

"Oh, I, uh.. I'm sorry. I thought you were a couple of the pre-teen touble makers. They like to make alot of noise and cause trouble."

Placing the broom back into the room she walked out and brushed back her hair.

"Well, I can help you with that. These doors are old and like to get stuck."

Taking the key from his hand she smiled. Their finger tips barley brushing against each other as she moved to the door. Setting the key in, she braced her foot and twisted as she hit the door with her right hip. With a click it opened..
 
As her fingers graze his he feels his heart skips a beat. A smile quickly forming on his face as he watches her open the door. The door swings open to a empty apartment.

"Shit its empty !" He says louder than he was planning.

He steps in looking at the windows "Shit no curtains"

He checks his watch now seeing all the stores will be closed he stands there trying to think about what to do when he spots the young female in his doorway he turns to her and freezes struck still by her looks. he starts to talk knowing she had to see he had feelings for her he only hoped that she wasn't going to run for the hills.

"What Im about to ask is going to sound crazy but you can make allot of money for little work so are you interested? " He thinks about what he just said oh shit she thinks Im filming for porno now smooth one.

"sorry what I meant to say is I need some one that is free to run some errands for me in the morning as I have to work?" He says with a smile

Oh great she now thinks Im running drugs he thinks to him self with a nervous smile.
 
Rue wasn't sure what to make of the young man. He seemed nice as she had let him step past her to check out his new apartment. He seemd suprise that the place was empty and part of her wanted to be sarcastic about that. Of course it was empty, this place like most were. Of course, no sooner did she think that did she realise that he probably didn't have anything but the clothing on his back. It wasn't long ago she was like that.

"Well, it's not a large place. Getting some chairs and a futon will be easy." Rue replied awkwardly as she went back to her apartment. When he asked her about a job and working for him, she was shocked. He hadn't known her but five minutes. "I, uh...I don't know.." She started to say as she was close to slamming the door and locking it. Yet, a part of her knew she needed to be nice.

"Well, I have some old bed sheets you could use for a temporary curtian if you'd like? I also have a Cot that I used before I was able to get a bed. You could borrow that if you need it."


Rue offerd with a slight smile on her face.
 
He gave her a smile and held out his hand that he was sure would be cold to the touch with the lack of blood.

"The name is Jim" He lied his real name would have to be unknown for now.

A smile crosses his face as he awaits for her to take his hand. His eyes darting around her place as his eyes start to take quick notes of every thing. Why he had fallen for her was unkown all he knew was he was willing to risk every thing to be with her.

"And thanks for any help you give me"
 
Rue's eyes warmed as she took his hand into hers. It was cold, but seemed to sooth her as she walked him into her apartment ans let go of his hand.

"My name is Rue."

She said simply and walked back down the short hall to the small closet. Reaching through she pulled out some purple bed sheets. While her guest looked around the room he would end up seeing a copy of "Dracula" sitting on the oak table.
 
Jim reluctantly let go over her hand something about her was getting to him. In the way only one other had ever got to him his. was he ready he thought to him self as he smiled. Funny thinking are you ready when the other girl had been gone now 70 years. His eyes sank to the book.

"Dracula good book granted the man dosn't live up to the story" He looks at her "Um so I heard"

He moved down the hall not making a sound his body moving with a ease and lightness that no man could naturally have. Jim brushes her hand taking the items from her.

"Here let me get them after all a gentleman helps a lady out doesn't he ?" He gives her a soft smile

"Rue is a very pretty name. Does it have a special meaning ?"
 
"Well, its a good story. I just like the movie better. Though if it were real, I would have wanted to stay with him and live forever. Mind that the ending wouldn't have happend that way or anything."

Rue replied and found it relaxing to talk about it. Sense he had brought up the subject and made for easy conversation. She was suprised that he came to help her with the items. They wen't even heavy, but as Jim brushed his hand over hers, she felt something. More like an eletric shock down her spine, and it wasn't the bad kind.

"I, well thank you." She replied. "Well its short for my full name. Something I don't want to think of. Its my name though. "
 
"truth was they did stay together and she had a son." He caught what he said too late

"um well let me get going Im sure you want to get to bed" he smiles

As he grabs his stuff he pushes up against her smelling her scent as his eyes lock onto her neck. His lust for blood takes over. In one move he drops evert thing and pins her to the wall his fangs extending. Not a single sound his made as he slams his fangs into her neck feeding on the warm red liquid that was her life force. He finishes his brain kicking back on she could feel that he now had body heat. He backs up letting her slide to the floor.

"Im sorry" with out another word he walks back to his apartment slamming the door.
 
"What?" Rue questioned. Dracula was just a story and it wasn't real. He must had been talking about something else. Shaking her head, RUe, started to hand him the blankets and started to talk about where the cot was. She never got the chance as he pinned her against the wall. He was stronger then he looked.

It all happend too fast. Rueopened her mouth to say something when pain broke into her neck. He was pressed to her with only the blankets keeping them apart. Her eyes opened wide and then he was gone. Muttering that he was sorry and the door slammed. Her eyes blinked a few times and she touched her neck. There were no marks, nothing. Thinking he had just fell into her and was embarressed was all she thought.

"I have to stop reading to many of these books."


Shaking her head, Rue walked out of her apartment to his and knocked a few times.

"Hey, I know your there. Look, I don't know what just happend. Did you trip? I still have to get you the cot to sleep on.."
 
He hears the door not answering it. Nothing he could say or do would change a thing she will fall asleep and the memories of the events would come to her. His eyes stayed on the door as first light started to shine through the window.

"shit gotta find a safe place." He quickly ducks into a closet falling into the cold embrace of death as the front door slowly opens*
 
The light that he saw was only that of a chopper flying overhead. It was still early in the evening as Rue pushed into the room. Her eyes flashed int he darkness and she didn't see him.

"Look, where are you? I don't know why you ran. If I said something wrong I am sorry."
 
Fuck it he thought he stepped back out into the living room looking Rue in the eyes. "Im a vampire." Seeing the look in her face he just looks at the ground. "I know vampires arn't real blah blah but trust me we are very real." His body started to relax trying to show her he wasn't a threat. "We are every where but always forced to hide in the shadows. As you can guess people don't take to our kind very openly." He smiles almost laughing. "Hell they try to burn me twice I am a vampire not a witch. Your species can be very silly at times." He looks at her his eyes glowing red out of anger now.

"You dare call us the monsters yet we don't kill to feed. No your the ones always at war building bigger better bombs to kill more people quicker." A smile crossing his face the fire in his eyes cooling down. "Im sorry I barely know you I shouldn't judge so quick. Im trying to be a better vamp I really am." He looks up sure she still didn't believe him. But soon he was across the room her in his arms his fangs fully extend blunging into her neck. This time stopping before she passes out he looks into her eyes her blood on his lips. " Believe me hat Im a vampire ?"
