the year is 2004, the time is 9:45pm. you live in a nice apartment complex in jersey city, new jersey. it’s rainy outside, and you’re sitting by the window in your bedroom, waiting for your boyfriend. he’s usually here around this time.

your boyfriend gerard is a vampire, but honestly he’s nothing like the ones in movies. you expected vampires to be more serious, or something, especially one that was bit in 1885. gerard has kind of a bad attitude and a lot of sass. they’re also not very coordinated, which makes them clumsy, and he isn’t that intelligent, either. his skin doesn’t sparkle in the sun, no, he can’t even go outside or they’ll turn to stone. they don’t eat or drink anything other than blood, and he can shape shift into a vampire bat.

your boyfriend being able to turn into an animal was your least favorite part about them. why? because it made him do weird shit. for example, you found out that vamp bats kiss each other with regurgitated blood in their mouths to build deeper connections after you kissed him for the first time and started tasting something bad. he said, “sorry. instincts.”

you hear a thud on the window, and vaguely see little wings flapping in the intense fog. you open it for him, and in comes gerard crashing through the open window. they’re not that good at turning back into his human form. he falls on your hardwood floor (un)gracefully, and messes up the fancy carpet they’ve already stained before.

“whoops..” they groan, slowly standing up.
