"Hey," he looked up to see the cheerleader who had avoided him a few moments ago. Her dark hair done up in a tight ponytail, slightly pulling her eyes a bit outward.
"Hey…Candace?"
She put her hands on her hips and cleared her throat. "It's Kariin."
He clicked his tongue. "Oh sorry, wrong girl. So what's up?"
" 'What's up?' What's up? It's my birthday, remember? You're still coming to my party right?" her voice was loud enough to echo through the now mostly empty halls.
Vicente however, was spinning his vape pen in between his fingers, not really paying much attention to the girl in front of him. "Uh-huh," he spun it towards his mouth and stood up to blow the pineapple-scented smoke in her face.
zen leaned forward, catching isaac's attention.
"so, i was invited to kariins' party. you know, the cheerleader? i was told i could have a plus one as long as they're cute. you up for it?"
"sure."
((owo))
Kariin closed her eyes and parted her lips, slowly inhaling the smoke as she walked closer to him. "You're hungry, aren't you?" She breathed against his ear, then tilted her neck to expose it more. Sleeping with her wasn't the only thing he did. Vicente often hunted for his food, whether in the woods for wild animals or stealing blood bags in hospitals. However, there was the risk of getting caught. So, he improvised and lured someone who was easy to control as a subjugate-his own personal blood bank.
His canines elongated as he pinned her against him, resting his nose on her exposed neck. Her aorta pumped a steady rhythm, it's beat enchanting him. His fangs prodded at her skin, deciding if he should feast on her here on not. Vicente sunk his teeth in, just below her artery, and held her in place to keep her from squirming.
"hm. wonder why she isn't in class yet. maybe she's preparing."
(timeskip to the party?)
(i suppose im starting lmao)
zen entered the dim common room, already excited by the prospect. alcohol, girls, and getting isaac to be social for once in his life? an awesome combination. said boy was hot on zen's heels, trailing him closely over to a cooler.
"so, you gonna drink?"
"maybe. i don't like alcohol, and i don't know how much to drink to only get buzzed."
"come on, that ruins the fun of it! hangovers are a wordly experience. you're a better person after having a few." zen flung his arms out overdramatically, shaking his hands in jazz-hands form.
"no thanks." isaac leaned on one leg, jutting out a hip.
"fine. here, just one beer for you."
"beer is fucking disgusting, i'll pass. unless it has enough sugar to kill a whale and will blind me with color, it's not my kind of drink."
"priss."
"lowlife."
they went to go sit on a couch, zen taking up most of the space and isaac sitting with his legs tucked under him.
Vicente frowned as he watched Kariin consume large amounts of alcohol, knowing that he'd have to wait until it was out of her bloodstream to feed on her again. His irritation soon subsided when he noticed a a group of attractive girls and guys, presumably older than him, look in his direction-pretty much begging for his attention.
"oh, fuck me isaac."
isaac looked up in mild interest.
"colgate is here. see if you can grab his attention."
isaac raised an eyebrow. "why?"
"i want to see how he'll react. the bathroom is just past him. try it."
"you're terrible. what's my payment?" isaac began to get up, dusting off nonexistent dust from his pants.
"we'll see. go."
isaac sighed, straightening his shoulders and beginning a brisk walk over to vicente. he brushed shoulders with said guy, barely touching him before heading the rest of the way to the bathroom.
Vicente slowly turned to- Bell. He bit his lip and watched him walk towards the bathroom.
An invitation.
He stood up and followed him, now forgetting said group that was in front of him.
zen raised an eyebrow from his seat on the couch, preparing to get into a fight. bell may be crazy as hell, but he's not too strong.
if vicente tried anything, he trusted isaac to scream.
isaac reached the bathroom, waiting for a second before entering. he noticed someone following him, and wasn't sure what vicente expected.
Vicente quickly slid in after him, closing the door behind once he was in. "Hey," he leaned against the door and grinned.
isaac didnt turn to look at him, rolling out his shoulders.
"what makes you think you were invited in here? for all you know, i'm taken." he put a hand on his hip, displaying an attitude.
"And what makes you think I care?" he cocked an eyebrow and crossed his arms over his chest.
"well, fair point on me being taken. the fact that you weren't invited is not a fair point. if i tell you to get out because i have to piss and you don't get out, that's invading my privacy and i could press charges. hm?" he finally turned around.
People don't usually take this long to finally give in. Vicente ought to try an alternative, he had to play a different game with this one. "Okay," he shrugged and walked out.
"thank you." he shut the door after vicente, locking it and heading over to the sink. he propped himself up on his elbows, sighing.
this was going to be a long night. knowing zen, he'd want to see how far they could push vicente. it was definitely funny, but not really pleasant on isaac's end. he didn't want vicente to be his first affair, and would rather keep his 'untouchable' status so that people would leave him alone.
((so, what are you lookin for here? my plan was that isaac keeps vicente hooked just enough to string him along for a while until they develop a kind of friendship and see what goes from there, but if you've got any ideas pls throw em out))
((Ooh that sounds good, mine was that Vicente ignores him and Issac tries to get his attention this time and the result being a friendship))
Vicente walked towards to the couch only to find Kariin's hands all over some random guy. He sighed and went over to the cooler to grab a drink.
((which one were you thinking? cause it'd be cool either way, but i think it'd be fun to write isaac just barely flirting with vicente. whatever you want, though!))
after about 8 minutes, isaac exited the bathroom and picked his way back over to zen.
"so, what happened?"
"he tried to corner me in the bathroom but i said i'd press charges if he fucked with me."
"…isaac, you are both terrifying and the weakest bitch i've ever seen."
isaac only took a deep breath and sat back down.
((Yeah i'm good with going with that idea… Issac barely flirting with him, i mean :p))
Vicente popped off the bottle cap of his beer with his thumb, bringing the it to his mouth when something caught his eye.
It was the bite mark on Kariin's neck-he forgot to heal it completely. Vicente set his beer down on the counter and ran over to grab her hand, the guy she was messing with protesting as a result.
isaac had been laid up on zen for a while, both of them getting progressively more bored.
"isa, i'm going to go find someone to fuck around with. are you good? if colgate tries it with you, just yell for me."
"i'm not good, but you can go. i'll just leave if i get too uncomfortable."
"alright. text me if you do."
as zen got up to find a group of girls, he noticed vicente struggling with kariin and her guy of the night. strange.
He finally got a hold of Kariin, dragging the giggling girl outside. How could I be this negligent?
isaac looked up just in time to see vicente dragging kariin outside. thank god that cunt is gone. nevermind the fact he's dragging kariin.
"Owie, you're hurting me," she whined, twisting her arm away from his grip. Vicente let go of her arm. "I could sue-" a hiccup escaped her lips. "Sue you for interrupting my quality time with that guy, " she barely managed to stand up straight, leaning against Vicente for support.
He tucked her hair behind her ear and brought his lips to her neck.
isaac sighed. there's nothing to do here. so he got up, carefully fighting through a mass of people until he got to the door. he exited, and immediately noticed vicente to his right. fuck.
isaac looked over. he had his mouth on the neck of kariin. before he could think, he spoke out to them.
"if you're gonna get kinky with the party host, you might as well take it to a bedroom. no reason to be public about it, colgate."
He was in the middle of healing her completely, sucking the venom out of her bite mark to make sure she didn't turn. Startled, Vicente whirled around at the sound of his voice, Kariin's toxic blood dripping down his chin. Kariin, however, only giggled. "Ha ha, 'colgate'," the wound on her neck was beginning to close up.
