"How's the tea, Noe?"
"Noe?"
"Hm? Oh its amazing, as always.." His voice trailed off. He's been up in his brain all day, not like it was any different than any other day but today was different. Instead of his oblivious giddy headspace trips it was more...dissociative like he couldn't get out, like something was bothering him.
"I know something's on your mind,what's the problem?" It was more a demand coming out of Vanitas rather than a question but you could see the concern dancing in his eyes. He sat down right across from Noe and started to play with his fingers. Noe's hands were always so soft and pretty to Vanitas, he loved looking at his lovers tan skin and looking at the blue nail polish on his fingers. They were chipping. He'd have to fix that later.
"That's just it. I don't know what the problem is. I want to tell..well, ask you something but I.."
A huff left the raven haired mans lips. "Could you be anymore ignorant? If you have something to say just say it. You act as if the world will crumble whenever you have a question."
"The world crumbling would be better than hearing a negative response."
"Honestly, you've been stuck in your head all week. Next time we go to the doctors i'm asking them to down your dosage!"
Vanitas honestly hated that Noe was put on medication for his ADHD there was absolutely nothing wrong with his burst of energy! He knew it was for the best even your own energy can drain you and leave you all burnt out in a matter of minutes Noe was no different he was just a special case. Still, the medication is there to help not change his whole personality and demeanor. And Vanitas hates that, he hates it so much. Practically sucking the life out of Noe day by day, he means what he said; when they go to their doctors appointment next week his dosage will be lowered.
Vanitas lifted herself up out of her chair and stretched her back.
"This isn't a sensory issue is it, do i need to get your box?"
Silence.
"Noe."
...
"NOE!"
Noe jolted finally being pulled out of his head. "Huh, uh umm. What did you say i couldn't.. i couldn't hear you."
"So what,are you deaf now? Fuck. Do you want your box?"
A barely noticeable nod was given in return. Noe walked out of the dining area, through their living room and up the stairs. Just three doors down to the right of the long hallway was a door. It was different than most doors. This one has stickers galore covering it, with a sign that said "sensory room" on it in Noe's handwriting.
Vanitas walked into the room and after stepping over piles of clothes and small puzzle pieces he walked to the closet on the far right of the room and opened it. On the floor there was a medium sized brown box with a few stickers on it, she picked it up and made her way back to the dining room.
When he stepped through the threshold of the room he saw Noe blanking out again.He huffed and placed the box down on the table and cupped Noe's face with his gloved hands and kissed him. Noe's face grew darker in color and had grown the most stupidest smile on his face.
"Je't'aime."
"Don't throw that "L" word around like that."
"Oh but mademoiselle, i looooove you! Je't'aime Je't'aime Je't'aime Je-"
"Alright, ALRIGHT! I hear you. no need to repeat yourself." Her face was all flushed and heated up.Looking away with slight embarrassment, she took 5 deep breathes to cool herself down.
"I've yet to hear you say it back."
Vanitas shot him a glare and rolled his eyes in response. "jetaime." he whispered but loud enough for it to be heard .
"Oh my what was that, i can't hear you?"
Okay now he was getting annoying, a vampires hearing is extraordinary
he just wanted her to scream it, which was NOT going to happen.
She was mistaken. She must have forgotten who her partner was.
"Cmon Madam! Please, oh i adore you so much why must you be so cruel to my aching heart!"
Vanitas' eye twitched. He'd been begging like that the whole way upstairs . He couldn't be too annoyed though, his love was finally out of his head for once and he couldn't be more grateful. He went into the sensory room once more to place the brown box back into the closet. There was no need for it today which was amazing. Vanitas closed the closet door and turned around.
Fuck.
There was Noe swaying back and forth on his heels slightly.
He was back in his head again.But this time he seemed a bit more conscious and he was staring at something..at someone. It was Vanitas, rather his exposed skin. Vanitas was wearing one of Noe's shirts the size difference was uncanny a little bit of exposed skin is to be expected when you're a small wearing an extra large.
"You okay? You're staring really hard."
"Excuse me, mon cherie i don't want to be rude but.."
There he goes again; trailing off his sentences.Going back into headspace, obviously this isn't a sensory issue it's a pressing issue and Vanitas is going to press a knife to his neck if he doesn't grow a pair and tell him what's the matter.
She's starting to get worried.She slowly walked up to Noe and stood right in front of him. She plucked her gloves off her hands slowly and let them fall to the floor. Once again cupping Noe's face in an attempt to free him out of his mind.
"Your hands are so warm, mon cherie.So soft, so warm, so pretty, flawless and untainted. Pulsing with blood and veins, so delicate...and they're all mine." He nuzzled into her touch the more he spoke of her hands. Noe, no matter the situation, would always find a way to talk about Vanitas. To compliment her to tell her how much she means to him to showers her with praise and love. Vanitas once thought she was unlovable, oh did Noe change her perspective. He had shown her sides of her she had never knew existed within her,habits she never knew she had,her way of speech, her way of talking, walking, the way she held herself, was carefully dissected and analyzed by him. Noe had changed her in ways she never knew she was capable of. His compliments never failed to fluster her and make her heart flutter.
But it felt different this time.There was something behind his words. He heard it in his voice.There was something almost animalistic about the way he had just described his hands.A hunger for something. Oh, he hopes his intuition is wrong.
"Are you ready to ask me that question that's been lingering on your mind?"
"Promise you won't hit me when i tell you."
"I'll hit you if you don't tell me."
Noe giggled then he sighed, he took a deep breath in then out.He kissed up and down Vanitas' arm, fleeting little butterfly kisses. He then took her hands off of his face and held them down.
"We've been together for 5 years."
"Glad you remember."
"hush."
Vanitas snorted then shook his head and gestured for him to continue.
"During these 5 years we've shared a plethora of memories together and experienced new things.But we've yet to experience one thing together."
"And that might be?"
"You've yet to allow me to taste your blood."
"I'm going to hit you."
"Please listen.The last time i've brought this up you didn't listen and jumped to a conclusion that was far from the truth.Please listen."
Vanitas sucked in a breath and nodded.
"I wish not to drink your blood for the reason you think.Besides what would i find out that i haven't already? I just want to taste your blood, nothing more."
"Are you telling the truth?"
"When have i ever told you a lie?"
Vanitas closed his eyes. For a long while,he was thinking.
It had been but 60 seconds til his eyes popped open again.
"You want to drink my blood just for the taste and nothing more?"
Noe nodded his head. He was praying that he would agree. 5 years of smelling every time he nicked his finger on a page, every time he'd nearly cut a finger off cause of cooking, the beautiful look on his face when his own blood adorned his face
in such a way only a painter would be able to capture, whenever he got into a fight. 5 years of desperation and waiting and trying so hard for him to trust him enough to share such an intimate moment together, he only hopes and prays it comes true today. Even if not they have a millennia together and Noe has no problem in waiting such a long while.
"Tell me how bad you want it."
...
"Pardon?"
"You heard me. Tell me how badly you want to suck my blood."
Oh Noe was prepared for this. He had dreams about this. Describing how much he wants to suck his blood comes as easy to him as breathing.
"Your blood.." He gripped his lovers hands and lifted them to his lips and kissed them.
"Your blood,although i have never tasted it, i have seen it and smelt it.Oh, mon cherie the smell of your blood drives me crazy!" He was kneeling now,looking up at Vanitas like he was a king, as if he were a mere servant begging for bread.
"You have no idea how much i resist licking the blood off of the knives you've nicked yourself on.Whenever your period would come on you have no idea how badly i want to lap up the blood leaking from your aching vagina .Oh but i feel so bad. Having these-these urges makes me feel so guilty.You're in pain and all i can ever think about during it is your blood dropping into my mouth.Oh mon morelle please please please please, your blood, l-let me drink it. please please please. mon cherie please s'il te plaît, s'il te plaît, s'il te plaît, s'il-"
"hush." Vanitas bent over slightly and kissed his lovers forehead. "un si bon garçon. I think..you've earned yourself a taste, don't you?"
Vanitas helped Noe up onto his feet and led him to their shared bedroom.Vanitas fell backwards onto their silk red bed and crawled to the middle of the bed. Craning his finger, gesturing for Vanitas to follow suite. Follow he did,once he got close enough he layed his head on Vanitas' lap and waited,almost patiently, for Vanitas to make a move. He didn't want to rush such a precious moment, he wanted to savor every single heart beat of the moment.
"Where do you want to get your fill from?My neck?My Hand? Or maybe.." He reached down to the band at his waist and stretched it out and let it hit his pelvic area. Noe had been holding his breath. Oh how he'd love to have that be where his supply came from but he has to stay tame. This was an intimate moment, their first time to be precise. He lifted his head up and grabbed his lovers hand and lifted it to his lips.
"Hm,you sure?"
"Yes, i want to taste it from the prettiest part of your body first."
"If that's so why aren't you sucking on my tits?"
"HUSH!"
Vanitas howled with laughter and shook his head.
"I'm sorry, i'm sorry, please continue i'm ready when you are."
Vanitas leaned forward and laid his head in the crook of Noe's neck.
"ready when you are."
Noe lifted his lovers hand to his lips once more and licked his palm, it was like he was prepping his hand. On Vanitas' end he was holding his breath, this isn't the first time he's had his blood drained from him but it has been a while,5 years to be exact, he hadn't let another soul even glance at his blood since he and Noe had gotten together. He's been waiting for this moment just like he was.
Noe kissed his palm and grazed his hand with his fangs.
Vanitas hissed and nuzzled his head back into his neck and grabbed the back of Noe's head and moaned.
Noe started suckling at the blood leaking from his hand.It tasted like a dream.He felt as if the lord had blessed him just then. The taste, the feeling, the consistency,he adored it. He would kill to taste this everyday.
Noe, so lost in his head once more started sucking a bit harder, not even realizing the pleasure it caused for his lover.
Vanitas was sweating, his shirt exposing his shoulders now and his eyes welling with pleasure filled tears.Letting out breathless moans and trying so desperately to get his breathing back.
"Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck,fuck,please, pl- Je't'aime, Je't'aime, Je't'aime, i love-mmm i love you!"
Noe was on cloud nine at this point. He took his last sips of blood and took his teeth from his lovers palm, licked up the remaining droplets and kissed it.
He lifted his head and grabbed the sides of Vanitas' face and kissed away the tears.
"I hope these are tears of happiness and not tears of pain."
"It's a mix of both..i don't think i've ever reacted so strongly to my blood being drained."
"I'm glad you at least enjoyed it as much as i did."
Vanitas giggled and lapped up the small trial of blood from his lovers mouth.
"Fuck, i don't know how you vampires are able to just drink blood. Too strong a taste for me i think i'd be a terrible vampire."
"How beautiful you would look with fangs though.."
"Oh hush."
Noe made his way off the bed and into the bathroom that was connected to their bedroom.He came out carrying a med-kit.
"Give me your hand."
Once vanitas held his hand out Noe got to work with cleaning and bandaging up his hand.Once he finished bandaging him up he got up to put the med-kit away and then left the room.
Vanitas knew where he was going and she wasn't too worried, in fact she had a small smile on her face as she saw him come back with that medium sized box from the sensory room.
"Which one do you want?" He said taking out a bag full of stickers.
"Whatever you want,mon chaton."
Oh how he loved his boyfriend, he couldn't help but stare at him with love in his eyes.Noe had picked out a cute little white cat sticker, almost looks like murr.
"Where would you like it?"
"Rightttt here." He pointed at Noe's cheek.
"Ha ha,not on me, on you."
"Fine, right here, on my arm."
There it was placed.Once Noe packed it up again and came back Vanitas was already laying in bed and under the covers.Noe slipped in right next to her and pulled her in, back to chest,he kissed her neck and snuggled in close.
"je t'aime, bonne nuit."
"bonne nuit, mon chaton."
