Vincent
Vincent looked over at her as his hands automatically began to work on her feet. He chuckled as she told her little white lie, it was there in hers that she had walked in on Lilly. Vincent wouldn't call her out on that.
"I didn't do anything, she just wanted me and that desire was evident. She's now taking that desire out in some fashion. I can smell it, and she smells heavenly." He chuckled lightly.
"Not as good as you though." His fingers worked each toes slowly taking minutes on work each one.
"Now go on read the story. Let's hash out this problem of yours."

Seth
Seth circled the two frames, that was all they were at the moment, Raithsburne a burnished steel, St. Claire black. Raithsburne still had a seat on it and he pulled Libby over gently sitting her down where he had been and then he got behind it, wrapping his arms around her.
"St. Claire is going to be done in a few weeks, Raithsburne days. We have to replace most of the scarred components, didn't help that I had an open clutch. We're doing away with that, and putting in a stronger clutch, something that would be able withstand you using it, hopefully." He chuckled lightly as he leaned back on the seat letting go of her.
"Raithsburne is going to be yours. I won't need her, but I don't want to give her up yet. So I give it to you and you will be with me till I die. Not a bad deal I think." He was relaxed, the smell of grease and oil calming him like he was reading up on ancient battles, politicians and societies.
"Anything you want us to add to the Raith?"

Alexandria
Her head lifted back up to look at him her eyes shocked when he said he looked into her GED. She slowly stood up the towel wrapped around her again as she said "I can cook something for myself" she was sure he was not used to making human food since his source of energy was blood. "I'm sure you have something else you need to do" she added noting the color of his eyes. She would suggest that he could feed on her since the last time he didn't hurt at all but she was sure she wasn't good anymore and or it wasn't going to be enough to satisfy his hunger. Alex walked a little towards him since he was leaning on the dresser and she did need clothes. "So you don't need to worry about me, I know my way around the kitchen and this place is fine we don't need to move unless you prefer it" she said.

Aimee
"Vincent!"
Aimee kicked him; not hard, of course, but enough to get his attention. She wagged her finger dangerously at Vincent.
"Don't you dare act all innocent; I know your type, demon...metaphorically speaking. You're only after sex and drugs and whatnot. You tease them up into a frenzy, and then reap the rewards."
Aimee blushed gently when he said that she smelled better. She cleared her throat and flipped on her laptop. Aimee started reading through her short story. When they got to the end, her flow of speech was upset and Aimee finally came to a halt.
"See what I mean? The characters just don't...work."

Libby
Libby folded into herself as Seth spoke about the bikes, feeling comfortable with his arms around her until they were not. She nearly choked at what he said about who will be owning Raithsburne. She had risked her life so that he could ride her. This was not going how she had expected it to go but it was an honor, in one weird way. Not a bad deal, huh? At least, she knew where she stood in his life. Libby shook her head and allowed her eyes to revert to their normal colouring.
"I suppose it isn't," she replied, staying on the seat of her new bike, "Maybe this time, I'll take better care of her. As for your question, is it too late to ask about training wheels? I don't know how to ride her." Even to her ears, it sounded weird. A slight chuckle escaped her. "Care to teach an old prune like me?" She looked back at him and batted her lashes in a joking matter. She did not like asking for help but like hell, she was going to have this bike fixed so soon. "It's an honor, by the way."

Vassili
"Don't let anyone in, not a salesperson or your best friend from grade school. There is a pistol in the kitchen, under the sink, and one up here bottom drawer." He kissed her on the cheek as he left. Turning back to speak over his shoulder his eyes were even darker somehow. "I won't be gone long." He opened the bedroom window and was gone even in the bright morning light he moved quieter and faster than humans could see.

Vincent
Vincent listened to her with rapt attention, his hands ceaselessy working her feet, eventually calves. As neared the ending it started to fall apart. He understood what the problem was, but how she got there was a mystery. She didn't know what to do with the characters, the plot was obvious, the ending just so, but how to fit the characters there. Emotion, that's what was missing, she didn't know how her characters were feeling now.
"What would your protagonist be feeling right now, how is his mind, where is his mind? Answer those question and the ending will fall together perfectly." Vincent didn't smile, the task wasn't complete, though her earlier words stung. He wasn't in for the sex and the drugs and things. He was in it for the fun, or at least was.
"Why can't I have some fun. I spent three thousand years without human contact, come across those stuck up Atlantieans and kill them. Then arrive in Greece and have fun for just five hundred years. So why can't I have some fun? Slave for nearly a thousand years." He looked over at her, his eyes were black now, the hatred for the witch there.

Seth
Seth chuckled lightly as she talked about training wheels and ran a finger down her back lightly.
"I can teach you, its not hard. Raithsburne is forgiving, not like St Claire is going to be. Three times the torque and horsepower. She will be a demon." Seth really laughed now a minute passing before he calmed down and then swung himself off the bike heading to the doors and opening them. They hadn't ripped the Kawasaki apart yet, they wouldn't till Raithsburne was repaired so she could learn of the POS.
"Let's get started them. This one is a little smaller, so you'll have to bear with me being even closer." Chuckling Seth pushed the start key in as his cell phone rang. He looked at it and saw Angel's number flashing across the screen. She can wait.

Libby
Libby shuddered on cue as he touched her. His little demon joke was cute and she followed his lead off the bike towards the bike that he had used to leave last night - the Kawasaki. Her leg was just over the cycle when his phone rang and he cut it off.
"Thanks and I guess we would have to get used to that," she commented on his last quip, settling herself on the bike and looking at him. "Who was that?" She had an idea, the sudden slip of the human girl's emotions giving her away, regardless of the distance. "Angel?"

Seth
Seth didn't answer for a moment and then decided to go with the truth, "Yeah. Who cares?" He swung onto the bike behind her, not yet wrapping his arms around her.
"Okay this POS is a button start, so just hit the button and hold down the clutch, your right lever there." He motioned to the clutch and waited for the engine to start. He called the bike a POS, but it fourteen hundred CC engine was the fastest thing on production. He didn't have anything else to teach her on, so she would have to learn fast.

Libby
Libby adjusted to the feel of him behind her and focused on the task at hand. She scanned the surface and found the button, following quickly with her hand on the clutch. "No one cares. It's just that she might have really liked you. Did you ever think about that? Even sluts need someone to love." Why was she saying this? She hated Angel, like any other human but her powers allowed her to feel for others even if she would rather rip their hearts out.
"It's just a thought," added the demon, her feet up on the brakes now and she looked back at him. "Where do we go from here?"

Seth
"Alright then, your right foot has a break, all you have to do is toe it and it will engage, don't for now. You'll pull your left had down on that lever, that is the front break, much better for new riders. Your left foot controls shifting. There is a bar, toe up for up shifting, down for down. Now pull up and put it into first, release the clutch slowly and throttle the bike up." Seth wrapped his arms around her now, waiting for the envitable stall. No one got it right there first time, and if she did then she was supernatural.
"She didn't care about me, she used me as much as I used her. She called herself a virgin breaker. Gets off on taking virginity, man or woman." Seth chuckled lightly.

Libby
Libby had almost engaged the bike when he mentioned toeing the right side brake. She laughed at herself and continued placing her hands and feet where he instructed her. Uncertainly, the demon tugged on the left lever and released the clutch as slowly as she could while shifting the bike into first. The cycle moved forward slightly forward and only then was she aware of her master's arms around her. "Was that supposed to happen? Also, do all virginbreakers call the day after their conquest? To me, the more appropiate thing would be to move on to the next victim, so to speak."

Seth
Seth didn't hear her at first and when they started down the drive he realized she was barely pulling the throttle back. The bike was idling still and would stall in a second. His hand reached up and rested on top of her pulling the throttle back more. The engine responded and the bike lurched forward and then down the drive.
"Lean while you turn, don't fight the movement, go with it naturally. Turn the handle bars just slightly to get the front wheel to start the turn and then go with the flow." The engine began to whine as it wanted to shift up. Seth waited till they were in a straight line before he told her to shift.
"When you here the whine, its the engine at is maximum revolutions, you let go of the throttle, pull the clutch and toe up on the shift bar. One fluid motion, the let go of the clutch and throttle back." She did it perfectly, fastest learner he had ever had.
"I don't know, that makes sense, but right now she can wait." The light turned red and she needed to know how to stop.
"Let the throttle go, pull the clutch back and let the bike roll to a stop, you'll have to do a little braking, and then toe the bar down twice to neutral." Again she worked like she had been doing this for years. Time to let her try without whispering in her ear.

Aimee
"Oh. Duh. Thanks, Vincent."
Aimee's face brightened as she figured out how it should feel to the reader, as it ended. Quickly, before she lost the ending again, her fingers hummed over the keyboard, finishing the story nice and cleanly. Aimee re-read it silently, making sure that it would all flow. She saved the file and e-mailed it to her editor. The human sighed, hearing Vincent's complains; she understood just where he was coming from.
"You can have fun, Vincent. Just not with Lilly. She's...she's...she's Lilly, y'know? We look out for each other; we're all that we have in this world. Inevitably, you're going to do something to her that will hurt her, and I can't have that. Do what you want to anyone else, just not her."
