Up
He checks his phone, 12:01 am. It feels like the numbers are taunting him. He pulls the covers off and puts on a hoodie over his non-shirted torso.
"I think they say walking helps clear the mind" he whispers. He opens the door quietly and closes it, wincing at the small click it made when it closed, and sneaks past his parents' door.
He's outside the apartment door now, feeling the adrenaline pounding in his ear and chest. "Can I be anymore stupid?" He mutters under his breath, but is still walking down the stairs into the streets of Japan.
He sees some drunk employees in the streets, stumbling and joking around, seeming at their happiest. He passed by them, but they raised their hand to high-five him.
"Uh, okay..!" He gets a bit of confidence that lasts only a second, but he high-fives them anyway.
He walks away down the darker streets and sees a vending machine filled with booze. He stares, remembering the guys who seem happy.
"Happy is what you want.. right?" He thinks as he pulls out his wallet.
A hooded figure appears next to him. "Ooo," the figure says with a smirk spreading across their face, "Underage drinking."
He jumps and says, "I-I- I swear, I wasn't gonna-", "You're fine. Relax, I was just teasing." He sighs feeling at ease.
"You can't scare me like that." He says as if he knows the person, which makes him feel weird that a usually composed, strait-laced person like him would act so... 'sloppy'.
The figure pulls back their hood to reveal a short woman with big hips and thighs and ass and small boobs, and a slightly plump cheeked baby face that had big almond eyes with smoky eyeshadow that leaked down her cheek a little that were framed with long thick eyelashes, skinny plump lips, button nose, yet her face gave off a very adult air, and her short big black curls in an afro, and her long almond shaped nails, and skin dark ebony skin. She was dressed in a black leather bodysuit, black leather shorts with two belts, black leather sleeveless gloves, and short black high-heeled boots.
“Take a proper view?“ She says with a smirk.
“Nah, just a glance,” he says, wrinkling his nose with dislike of this new behavior of his. She raises an eyebrow at that.
So what's your name, sneak?“ She asks.
“Shoma, Ryto Shoma.“ He says it in a more business-like manner, sounding much older than he actually is. The woman raised an eyebrow and then said, “Udo.“ She says, puts her arm around his neck, and starts walking.
“Hey- And what kinda name is Udo? Is that like short for udon?“ Udo's eyes narrowed into slits.
“Problem..?“ He clears his throat. “Forgive me. I meant you must not be from…here, right?“ She removes her arm from his neck. “I am. Been here all my life.“ Udo says and walks up farther.
Shoma scratches the back of his head realizing he's being rude and tries to catch up. “W- wait! I formally apologize and wish to make amends.“ He says, practically running after her at this point.
“I mean, Udo is a wonderful name! Its… unique! But like in a good way, of course!“ She paused at the 'make amends' part.
“Give me your blood and tell not a soul.“ He forgot breathe at that moment and stumbled on the next one.
“What?“ He thinks. “Your blood...give it.“ He takes a step back, thoughts rushing to analyze and rationalize the notion as he knows vampires don't exist. He takes another step in the opposite direction and starts to run. She's in front of him.
“You smell delicious with the night infused with your hot blood.“ Udo says, licking her lips and revealing a fang. She giggles, but Shoma is not amused.
“That was a horrible joke.“ He says deadpanned. “What joke? The fact that I'm starving?“ She says, confused.
He freezes, “What... are you?“ “I'm a vampire, what of it?“ She says casually. He breathes, “You aren't gonna kill me? Or like turn me into a vampire, right?“ She looks at him, confused. “I'm not gonna suck you dry, and I… I- You can only turn you if you are in love with me!“
He untenses, not realizing he uses tense. “I can only turn if I'm in love?“ He says slowly and curiously. She nods embarrassedly and hot-cheeked.
“I…guess I can let you suck some blood- but only some of it. Okay-“ In that moment, she grabs him and lifts him into the air. She flies high into the sky, carrying him to a nearby skyscraper's rooftop.
“What the hell!!!“ He yells as he gets carried. She wraps her fingers around his neck and puts her fangs in Shoma's neck and sucks blood through it like a straw. Udo savors it.
“Mmm..“ Udo hums. She pushes him off the skyscraper. Shoma looks around himself, realizing what just happened, and starts to scream, but then goes breathless at the vibrant night sky.
