"The Gift"
The night was just getting started we had one of the greatest conversations I have ever shared in my lifetime he was different that night something I couldn't put my finger on he plied my with wine halfway thru the bottle I started getting a bit tipsy and said: "I do believe you are trying to get me drunk!" "Is it working?" He asked pouring me another glass. "Yes it is!" I said trying to get up from the table to walk up the stairs he said: "Please stay here! I have something else for you!" He said zipping over to pick me up there were parts of the room that were pitch black that I could not see, I could hear the gravel under his feet his moving and rubbing together as he stepped on them.
"Gabe I cant see anything where are you taking me?" I said getting scared when he said: "Do you trust me?" "You know I do Gabe!" "Can you see without a doubt that you love me Jake?" "Gabe, I have never felt anything like this before, and I know we haven't know each other long. I can say yes I do love you!" "I am very glad to hear you say that. As you know tonight is the night that I was turned last night you only got a portion of what it is like to be immortal tonight if you accept you will experience everything it is to be like me!"
"So you are going to turn me then?" "Only if and when I hear a yes!" He said as he laid me upon this huge bed lighting the candles that surrounded that bed. He started at the bottom of the bed climbing his way pulling my underwear off as he started to slowly kiss, lick and suck my now hard part as I ran my fingers thru his luscious black hair he moved off and starting licking his way up my tight stomach past my belly button and on up to my chest biting and kissing at the same time, licking and sucking my nipple he made his way up to my neck he said: "Just say when!" I pulled his face into my neck and he started back kissing it.
We started to make love like a million suns going supernova when all of a sudden I screamed: "Yes do it!" Quicker than I could blink he was behind me his teeth plunged into my neck I could feel him sucking and slurping my essence out of the vain he had just opened as he was fucking me like pack of ravenous dogs! I felt my life slipping away I was growing listless and it was becoming harder to move, breathe, even thinking was growing harder with every drop he pulled from my neck! He pulled back very quickly and said: "Drink! Live forever!" As he drug a knife across his arm opening up his own vain resting it upon my mouth that was the moment that I died.
The next night I awoke to the night calling out to me I awoke to nothing but an empty bed and an envelope I screamed out for Gabe but he was gone and there was nothing or nobody the ghost of Gabe and the life that I once lived. I looked at the envelope and written in black was my name sealed closed with wax. I tore the letter open with the fury of a million suns:
Jake,
The biggest part of me does not want to let you go my heart screamed as I placed you in your new home, don'aft worry you own it and everything inside of it as well. I have set up a bank account with a great amount of money inside that will get you thru any obstacle you may come across. This life is nothing but secrecy your home is your sanctum as you will spend a lot of time here. Your old life is over your new life has just begun. Your, probably wondering, why I am not with you or why you are not here with me. It just cannot be we would live happy for a while but after awhile the animal that is inside of us would have ended up killing one another. Perhaps someday our paths will cross and we will embrace and set the world on fire with out love. You will find others like you in your travels some will be kind and some not so much. It is my biggest regret that I will not be able to guide you, follow your instincts they will not let you down! And always remember secrecy is your friend and companion, remember,
Everything that I have told you and always know that I will love you until we meet again!
Gabe
Fifteen years have passed since that night and I have since on occasion out of anger, or loneliness have screamed out for my missing maker and I have yet to get a response the one thing I'm sure of he was right when he said this a lonely existence feeding for the purpose of staying alive. Self preservation is a bitch, I will continue to search this sad ball of dirt for someone who will fill my empty life with some kind of love even if only for a few meaningless minutes of happiness. And now there is a threat in this world someone out there is hunting mortal and immortal alike and striking those down it has become my mission in my afterlife to hunt down those who wish to do harm and take out what good is left in this world. These will be my tales of a gay vampire searching for love, and happiness I will fight for those cannot fight for themselves!
