Rock of Ages, Forever Pt28
It was quiet in the house, the only noise was coming from the TV. Joe and Rebecca were cuddle up naked on the sofa watching a movie. Having made love earlier in the night, she was afraid that Sav would come downstairs and see them. Joe had assured her that he wouldn’t, he was exhausted from his trip. Now lying there in his arms, she was glad that he had persisted. She loved times like this because there had not been that many for them. It was a night such as this, that Joe had asked her to marry him. It had taken her completely by surprise, knowing how hung up on finding Sav he was. And now that he had retu…she was jolted out of her thoughts by a loud crash that came from the back of the house.
Rebecca pushed herself up, “What was that?”
“I don’t know,” Joe said as he got up. “Stay here, I'll go find out what it was.” Joe went down the hall, past the kitchen anc came upon the guest room door and threw it open, peering inside the darkness. The only light was coming from the hall and it barely went into the room. “Sav,” he reached over and turned the light on from the wall switch, nothing happened. “Rick.”
“I always liked it when you called me that.” Sav said in a soft voice from deep inside the room.
Joe turned his head in the direction of his voice, but still couldn’t see him. “What was that noise? Sounded like some one came through the roof.”
“The lamp. You know you don’t have on any clothes.” Sav told him.
“How can you see, it’s so dark in here?”
“One of the many traits of being a vampire. We have excellent night vision.”
Before Joe could say more, Sav was standing in front of him, he took a step backwards.
“Are you afraid of me, Joe?” he asked in a voice deeper than usual.
“No, it’s just…you caught me by surprise, that’s all. What happened?” he asked again.
“Bad dream.”
“Want to talk about it?”
“Not while you’re naked.” Sav smirked.
“Oh yeah right, meet me in the kitchen in five.”
“Fine. You get to pick up the tab if you’re late.” Sav told him.
Joe turned around and quickly bounded up the back staircase. Breezing into his bedroom, he quickly pulled on some sweats, a t-shirt and went back downstairs.
Sav passed the kitchen door and went for the other box of bottle that Joe had left there earlier. When he reached the living room door he saw Rebecca stand up from her place on the sofa.
“Joe is every…” she stopped short when she saw who it was. She hadn't bothered to cover herself, not even thinking that Sav would be awake. Snatching up the throw blanket that was draped across the back, she quickly covered her front.
Sav stopped and looked at her. Smiling, he gave her a wink before heading toward the kitchen. Going to the pantry he deposited the box there for now. Moving next to the refrigerator, he pulled out one the bottles and drank half of it, frowning at the coldness. Looking around the kitchen, he eyes fell on the liquor bottles against the opposite wall. Padding over there, he picked one out that he knew would blend well with the blood.
Rebecca was still straightening her clothes, when she came into the kitchen and saw him doing that. “Well, just make yourself at home.”
Sav looked over his shoulder at her as he shook the bottle. “Basically it is. We both stay here, not at the same time. Just like he makes himself at home when he visit me in Dublin. We both have houses there too, but I’m sure he has told you about that.”
“Yes, I’ve been there. If you live here, why are you wearing some of his clothes?”
“Probably because he forgot that I have some here. If it upsets you that much, I’ll take them off.” he moved his hands as if he were going to remove his pants.
“No, That won’t be necessary.” She told him as she held up her hand to stop him.
Sav put a glass on the table and poured the liquid from the bottle in it.
“A little late for wine isn’t it” Rebecca commented as she pulled a coffee mug from the cabinet.
“Ah, but it’s not just wine. Its a special blend that I like."
Pouring herself some coffee, Rebecca turned around and leaned against the counter to sip the hot liquid. She watched Sav get comfortable at the table and stare down into his glass. She had already noticed the cuts and bruises that marred his face the night before were gone. Not even a scar on his cheek, where a deep cut was, could be seen. Rebecca knew then, that something was wrong with him.
Joe came up beside her and placed a kiss on her cheek, pulling her from the wild thoughts she was having.
“I take it that you will be staying up?” she asked him.
“Only for a little while. You go on to bed.”
“Ok, I’ll see you in the morning.” She kissed him and glanced over at Sav. Not saying anything more, she left them and went upstairs.
“I don’t think she likes me, Joe.” Sav said, when he knew she was far enough away.
“Who Rebecca, sure she does.” Joe exclaimed.
“If it’s going to be a problem with me being here. I can leave.”
Joe sat he coffee cup down on the table and sat down across from him, “Don’t be ridiculous. You’re not going any where.”
“I don’t want to come between the two of you.”
“What are you doing with that?” Joe said and pointed at the wine bottle, effectively changing the subject.
“I mixed it with this.”
“Can you do that?”
“Sure, but with only a couple of wines. The rest don’t blend well and they don’t set well on the stomach.”
Joe made a face at the deep red color.
“It’s an acquired taste.” Sav told him.
Joe made a disgusted face and took a sip of his coffee. “I’m sure it is.”
Silence settled over them for a few minutes, until Sav finally broke it. “Well now that you know for sure. You can ask me all those question.”
Joe nodded his head. “And I can’t think of the first one.”
“How about the obvious one. Why did I do it? The offer was to good to pass up. Not to mention the beautiful woman that made the offer.”
Joe sat there, shaking his head, "But a vampire, those things aren't suppose to exist and then you...you accept an offer to become one...for something that doesn't exist."
“You will get used to the idea...in time.”
“Would you go back and change it?” Joe stared hard at him, picking up on the any new body language that he didn't notice before he disappeared.
“No.”
“Even after what happened to you.” Joe asked.
“No.”
“That was simply put.” Joe stated. “I’ve read some folk lore on vampires, and they are just that, a myth, a folk lore, or so I thought, but I have one sitting in my kitchen.”
“And he is one of your best friends.” Sav added.
“You were acting very strange when you came back and you wouldn’t say anything. You didn’t ask for help from any of us.”
“I didn’t think you would understand at the time.” Sav told him.
"You may have been surprised. I would have understood. I think and tried to help, but you kept pushing me away. So did everyone else.”
“I had to keep my distance," Pushing back from the table, Sav stood up and went to stare out the window. "Just my being there, put everyone in danger.”
"In danger of what?"
Sav just turned he head and glared at him, until he saw the understanding come over Joe's face."Oh...oh that...yeah, I guess it would. All that warm blood walking around," his mind drifted back to the night in the alley over two years ago, then to just less than twenty-four hours ago. “But you...you seem ok now...being here with us.”
“You think so,” Sav looked at him again. “There’s nothing more I want to do right now, than to taste your blood again, Joe.” Joe sat up straighter in his chair, surprised at what he said. He also saw the longing in Sav’s eyes to do it.
“But I wont. It shouldn’t have happened earlier and now I’ll just have to live with it.”
“I still can’t believe you did this.” Joe said running a hand through his hair.
Sav smiled at him, “Well I did and I can’t go back and change it.”
Joe was quite, thinking of another question, not sure how to go about asking. “Did he treat you that badly?”
Sav’s smile faded, he turned back to the window and stared out at the darkness. Taking a deep breath he told him, “Not all the time. There were a few good times, fun times.”
“Really, and what were they?” Joe asked.
Sav frowned a moment, getting his thoughts together, “Maggie, she was terrified at first, but after a few days, she settled down a little. When Nick saw that I wasn’t taking the bait he…”
“Bait?” Joe asked.
“I was… we were…suppose to sleep with her… I guess it was suppose to relax me. Nick would come in and…uh… while I took her…he would… it never happened. Nick got tired of waiting, I guess. He grabbed her through the bars one night, told me to take her and satisfy my hunger.”
”Did you?”
“No, I took the key instead. I could have left, but I chose to stay in exchange for her life, and I let her out. Nick said he wouldn’t go after her, but he did. He killed her right in front of me because I wouldn’t do what he asked, it’s my fault she's dead.” the tears slipped down his face for Maggie and how he had betrayed her.
“Sav, you can’t blame yourself for her death. Nick killed her, not you.” Joe gently informed him.
“All I had to do was what he asked me. If I had in the first place, she would still be alive.” he swiped away the wetness on his face. “He brought Lily in next. This time it was all planned out. If Lily helped Nick get what he wanted, she would become one of us and I fell for it. Nick had his way.”
Joe ran his hand over his face. Trying to take in what Sav was telling him. He got up and went the short distance to the window where he stood. Sav's voice had grown almost to soft for him to hear from the table.
“I could have stopped him, tried to several times. All I got for my efforts were several broken bones, countless busted lips. I lost count after a while. And in the end, it was always the same. He never left without satisfying his sexual pleasures.”
Joe placed his hand on his shoulder, causing Sav to jump from his touch. Their eyes briefly met before Sav let his eyes move back to the window. “Sav, I had no idea.”
“How could you? You weren’t there and I was. But, you know, I’ve never been so happy to see anyone, when you opened the door the other night.”
“Couldn’t have been to happy, you passed out.” Joe chuckled.
“Couldn’t help it. I was exhausted, loss of blood and not eating while I was on the run from Nick.” Sav told him.”So any more question?”
“I didn’t ask that many.” Joe said.
“You're the one that looks tired now. Why don’t you go to bed.”
Joe shrugged his shoulder, “Maybe a little. How are you feeling by the way?”
“Fine now that I can relax... well, I'm working on that. At least I don't have to endure sleeping with Nick, to get it.”
“You had to do that before he….?” Joe's words trailed off, not able to bring himself to say it.
“All the time.”
“He’s very twisted.” Joe commented.
“Yeah he is. Now go.” Sav smiled at him.
Joe stopped at the bottom of the stairs, turning back to Sav. ”There is one more question. Is it true that vampires can fly?”
“Yes.” Sav replied glancing up at him.
“Can you?”
Sav only nodded his answer to which Joe cracked a grin. "One more thing. Why don't you move to the bedroom upstairs. I know that bed is much more comfortable and the bathroom is right...oh, you don't really need a bathroom..."
Sav laughed and shook his head, "Only to take showers."
"Oh...ok...well, goodnight then." Joe mumbles and went upstairs.
"Goodnight, Joe." Sav called after him.
Once he had gone, Sav once again peered out the window, feeling the night pull at his insides, willing him to come out and enjoy what it could offer. But he couldn't at the moment, not until he was ready to venture out, to feel safe again. Standing there for a long time, Sav thought about the past two years. He had only told Joe a fraction of what he had gone through. But, he was sure that there would be more questions from Joe in the days to come, he would deal with those when the time was upon him and not dwell on what Joe may ask. Maybe telling Joe about it would help him get over it and try to get on with his life. But, he knew, deep in the back of his mind, that one day, Nick would come for him.
