Vanessa's "Monkey Man"

"Don't mock me, young lady. One day when you have seven kids thanks to his damn dick don't come crying to me." Julia told her and waved the knife at her slightly before she went back to preparing the food. Julia was never able to have children, or keep a husband for that matter, so she was extremely protective over Vanessa. She only wanted what was best for her but it seemed that she overstepped her boundries half the time.

Roman had let himself into the motel with the key that he had in his pocket and began to change out of the jeans he wore and the sleeveless shirt. When Roman had put on a pair of basketball shorts and a white tank top he slid his feet into the pair of skate sneakers under the desk and then grabbed his bag. Roman stuffed as much clothes in it as he could and then threw his cell phone charger and his last six pack into the bag before clasping it shut. Roman had exited the motel room when he was done and locked the door behind him, moving through the parking lot with the bag hanging on his shoulder.

When Roman made it to the street, he flagged down one of the cabs and then got inside, giving the driver Vanessa's address.

This is the proving ground. As the heat begins to rise.
Turn away from yesterday. Tomorrow is in my eyes. Oh!
Nevermore to be held down by the weights against me.
Nevermore to be cast aside. This day is mine!
Even through the darkest days this fire burns always.

Once Vanessa and Celeste had finished talking, Vanessa told her bye and hung up the phone. Sometimes, Vanessa just wanted to strangle Julie but then she remembered she had to learn to control her temper, for her own sake. Roman would be back in no time and then she would be able to escape her aunt again. "Don't worry, I sure as hell won't come crying to you," Vanessa snapped as she turned her back to Julie and made her way into the living room.

After collapsing back onto the couch, Vanessa put her bare feet up on the coffee table in front of her and grabbed the remote. Hopefully a little t.v. would drown the nagging woman out.

When the cab stopped in front of Vanessa's home he quickly paid the driver and then rose from his seat. With the bag tight on his shoulder he made sure the driver drove away before he took off towards Vanessa's balcony. The vampire quickly jumped up onto the ledge and then down onto the walkway that lead towards the door. Like he had asked, she left it unlocked, and he stepped inside and then locked the door behind him. Roman had placed his bag on the bed and then moved at vampiric speed down the stairs and over the back of the couch. Roman flashed her a bright smile as one of his large, tattooed arms wrapped around her body.

Vanessa jumped with wide eyes when out of nowhere, Roman appeared at her side with his arm wrapped around her. Vanessa placed a hand over her heart and laughed histarically. "Wow, you scared the shit outta me," Vanessa said as her laughter began to slowly cease. Vanessa glanced over her shoulder, in the direction of the kitchen before she slid into her man's lap, arms around his neck and grin glowing.

"That didn't take long," Vanessa murmured as she nuzzled her face against the side of his neck before she pulled away, chuckling. "Wow, you're warm."

"Fresh blood maximizes my powers." Roman told her in the tone of a whisper. He didn't need her aunt thinking of her as more insane. She already did because of the tattoos and piercings he had and not to mention she referred to him as the dickless wonder. Roman had slowly turned around when he smelt fresh blood in the kitchen. Julia had cut her finger cutting the chicken for the salad. Although Roman had just fed he was still very prone to attacking whenever blood was drawn. He wasn't properly trained and full resistance to it took many more years than he had. When all the muscles in his body tensed, Roman stopped his breathing, trying to get the scent out.

Vanessa noticed Roman's change instantly and so she slowly placed a hand on the side of his face. "What's wrong, baby?" Vanessa practically purred as she nuzzled her nose on his opposite cheek. Something had set Roman off and although she wasn't sure what, she still wanted to make him feel better. When Vanessa's aunt called that it was time for dinner, Vanessa rose to her feet and offered out a hand to him, smiling. "I guess you can...pretend?"

"Pretending is fun." Roman said as he pushed himself up off the couch. Roman had interlaced his hand with hers and had finally gotten the ability to control himself, his breathing starting once again. Her aunt's blood was drowned out by Vanessa's scent, nothing could compare to that. Roman had slowly walked into the dining room, hand in hand with Vanessa and then her aunt glanced up.

"I thought you went home, Roman." She said as she placed the bowl of salad down.

"Yeah, I just went home to grab some new clothes and such." Roman told her and gave her a small smile. He was still uncomfortable with the blood but he had to be strong. He could do it.

"Well, I hope you know that you won't be staying here, Roman. And it's a school night, so once dinner's done it'd be appreciated if you let yourself out." Julia said as she sat down at the head of the table.

"Whatever you say, ma'am," Vanessa replied to her aunt's still snotty attitude towards Roman as Vanessa took a spot at the table, sitting right next to Roman. After sliding her chair in, Vanessa glanced down at the food in front of her. If there was one compliment she could give Julia, it was that the woman knew how to cook. Without another words, Vanessa picked up her fork and began to eat her salad.

Vanessa was surprisingly hungry tonight because, believe it or not, eating wasn't a preference when you had a vampire boyfriend. Chuckling at her own internal thoughts, Vanessa placed her right hand beneath the table to rest on Roman's knee as she ate with her left hand. There was complete silence at the table and perhaps that's because her aunt knew Vanessa wasn't going to listen about Roman leaving after dinner.

Let the fight begin, Vanessa thought as she gave Roman's knee a gentle squeeze.

"So, Roman," Julia began as she finished chewing a mouthful of food. "What are your plans for after high school? I mean, if you are dating my niece, who i want to have a good future, she needs to have a man who can support her needs." Julia lectured as she waved her fork around slightly. "Look at this place, she's spoiled rotten and I doubt there's anyway you could support a girl like her." Julia spat, though she hid her harshness very carefully.

"Actually, I have a few colleges lined up after high school. Harvard, Duke, Yale, Princeton. All of them have received my applications and all of them I have been accepted to. As for a career, I think I still have time to decide on that and a major. The military was my first decision after college, but we'll see how that pans out in five years." Roman explained in one of the most polite tones he could muster. Roman killed someone with kindness when they couldn't stand him and it always inwardly laughed. As for what he said, it wasn't a lie, but he did have to find a new major, one he hadn't already gotten.

Vanessa's small smile quickly turned into a large smirk at all that Roman had said. "See, Julia? I don't date losers and if you're going to nitpick at something else after that explanation, you can just keep it to yourself because I I know he's a good man and that's all that matters," Vanessa explained between bites of food. Once she had eaten her fill, which was most of the salad, Vanessa pushed her bowl away and waited for her aunt to finish. It was, after all, the polite thing to do.

Vanessa slid her hand down Roman's knee beneath the table before trailing it up the inside of his thigh, beneath the fabric of his basketball shorts. She honestly didn't care if her aunt could see what she was doing, this was her house and Vanessa now considered herself to be the head of the household, not this woman.
