тАЬA blood sucking vigilante?тАЭ I was horrified. And intrigued. No, I was horrified. тАЬDid you not hear me?
About how until last week I was a secretary?тАЭ

тАЬNot anymore,тАЭ Marc said smugly. Now that heтАЩd thought heтАЩd found a purpose, his entire
demeanorтАФeven his smell!тАФwas different. Gone was the slump-shouldered sad-eyed boy. In his place
was the Cisco Kid. тАЬYou told me you thought youтАЩd fight crime to atone for your feeding habits, right?
Well, where better to start?тАЭ

I just shook my head and stirred my tea.

тАЬWell, whatтАЩs your alternative? You donтАЩt seem the type to skulk in the shadows and lure the unwary
into your fiendish embrace.тАЭ
 The mental image made me laugh.

тАЬAnd another thingтАФvampires donтАЩt giggle.тАЭ

тАЬThis one does. And before I forgetтАжтАЭ My hand shot out. I pulled him toward me and looked deeply
into his eyes. тАЬIтАЩm glad youтАЩre feeling better, but if you should relapse, you wonтАЩt. Kill. Yourself.тАЭ

He stared back. His pupils were dots; the lights in this all-night caf├й were ferocious. тАЬIтАЩll
doтАжWhatever. The hell. I want. But thanks. Anyway.тАЭ

I stared harder. Come on, vampire mojo. Do your thing. тАЬDonтАЩt. Kill. Yourself.тАЭ

тАЬWhy. Are you. Talking. Like this?тАЭ

I dropped his hands in disgust. тАЬDammit! IтАЩve been able to make men do my bidding since I woke up
dead. WhatтАЩs so special aboutyou ?тАЭ

тАЬThanks for sounding so disgusted. And I have no idea. IтАФuhтАФтАЭ His jaw sagged and I could
practically hear his I.Q. dropping. He stared dreamily over my shoulder. I lookedтАФand nearly shrieked.
The psychopath from the cemetery was standing in the doorway of the cafe, looking straight at me. Ack!
His hair was a mess, I was happy to see. I couldnтАЩt see his back, but he smelled like burned cotton.
Good!

тАЬOh my God,тАЭ Marc rhapsodized. тАЬWho isthat ?тАЭ

тАЬAn asshole,тАЭ I mumbled, turning back to him and picking up my tea.

тАЬHeтАЩs coming over here!тАЭ Marc squealed. тАЬOh my God oh my God ohmyGod!тАЭ

тАЬWill you get a hold of yourself?тАЭ I hissed. тАЬYou sound like a girl with a crush. Ah-ha!тАЭ Realization hit, a
little slowly as usual. тАЬYouтАЩregay !тАЭ I realized IтАЩd shouted and everyone in the caf├й was staring at us.

тАЬDuh.тАЭ

тАЬWhat, тАШduhтАЩ? How was I supposed to know? I just assumed you were straight.тАЭ

тАЬBecause you are.тАЭ He was still staring over my shoulder, trying to fix his hair which was so incredibly
short it could never be mussed. тАЬIalways assume everyone is gay.тАЭ
