The Vampire sat in front of the fireplace, as usual...probably one of his favorite places to relax and reflect. His brows furrowed and he wondered if tonight would be like last night...and the night before. An evil grin slightly curled his lips. "At least it's been interesting," he said quietly to himself.
He sighed heavily and thought of all that could be. The limits were...well - limitless. He pondered at the irony.
He thought of a person that wanted to get close to him, just recently and almost laughed. He figured she got the clue, and fast. She wasn't as stupid as he thought she was...then again...he almost laughed.
He thought about those he let get too close and cursed himself. More than once he had wished he had never let them get that close, let alone met them. Sighing again he looked to the roaring fire and let his mind wander.
After a moment he broke free from his self-induced trance-like state and grabbed up the pack of clove cigarettes from the table. He slid one out and grabbed the lighter. In a moment the brilliant cherry on the end of the cigarette boasted it's brightness to the inferno in the fireplace. He took a long drag and let the smoke curl out through his nose. Shaking his head, he thought of mistakes and regrets.
Shaking off the bad feelings before they became embedded in his head he thought of those few whom he had let get close...those he didn't regret letting in, and he grinned. Slowly he nodded his head and took another drag on the cigarette. He closed his eyes and exhaled slowly, as was his way.
