Night Off

[go-between.livejournal.com]

Richard's at the bar with a pint of lager and a distinct lack of children. He's leaning back on the barstool and toying with a red ring on his thumb.

And despite his claims, Nick notices the column of throat as Richard moves and his eyes lock to the pulse point where he can see the blood under pale skin, thick and hot and perfect. He hears a soft, curling growl and wonders where it could possibly have come from before discovering it was from himself.

And he blinks.

Richard blinks as well, and shivers. "You all right, Nicky?" He's pretty sure he knows what's going on, but he'll ask anyway.

He looks at Richard, eyes shining and glassy and yet very very focused.

"Richard."

The word is purred with the smooth sensuality of one who spent centuries perfecting the craft of luring meals into dark alcoves in pursuit of their own appetites. And yet the edge is dark, a little rough and ever so slightly annoyed.

Richard has to know.

He shivers and his breath quickens and his heart starts to pound at the primal sound of Nick's voice. At being Hunted again. He'd always loved this. Loved sharing a piece of himself. It was like sex, only moreso, deeper. And it had been so very long since he'd been able to.

He meets Nick's eyes and answers.

"Yes, Nick."

As simple as that.

He looks up, blinking a little at Richard's agreement. The hunger is still there, as is the predatory glint to his eyes. He speaks to the rhythm of Richard's heart, audible to him. It was once how he hypnotized his victims. Now, it's just a force of habit.

"A night to be... somewhat anonymous then?"

He nods and traces a fingertip softly over Nick's lips, then turns and walks up the guestroom steps.

And he grins boyishly before running.

Very fast.

And Richard is picked up along the way.









the door closes.
