Blood Delirium
Through the haze of blood delirium, I heard the front door to Blickâs home open and close. The sound of distant footsteps grew near. Instinctually I released my fangs from Michaelâs neck and jumped off the couch. Michael didnât move.
Blick and a man wearing a tan Italian suit -who I assumed was J- stormed into the living room.
âWhereâs your computer?â the man asked. Weâve had another report of an outbreaâ¦â
Both stopped in their tracks when they saw me standing there partially nude in just my gray nylon jogging jacket, splattered in blood. Michaelâs blood.
âWhatâs going on here?â Blick yelled, rushing past me.
âSheâs sucked him dry! Get him to the bedroom now!â the man exclaimed.
Blick picked Michael up, threw him over his shoulders, and followed the man to the bedroom.
I rushed to the terrace to snag a sweatshirt and pants. Returning to the living room, I busied myself with cleaning the crime of the scene. He canât die, I repeated to myself over and over.
The voice inside my head reassured me, âThe angel canât die, silly. He said so. Chill out.â
âI knew my Ray was a vampire!â
I cursed under my breath when I heard Deathâs familiar voice.
âWhat are you doing here?!â I exclaimed.
âJust in case,â he replied. He paused and didnât say anything else.
A puzzled look crossed my face.
âHey, you wanna swing into the kitchen and give me a quickie? I donât mind sloppy seconds. You look so sexy all splattered in blood! Having sex with an angel. Shame on you!â He winked at me as a devilish gleam came into his eyes.
âIâm in no mood for your vulgarity!â Then the realization of his presence settled in on me. âOh no, no, no. Michael wonât die. You canât have him!â I yelled, giving him a slap across his arm.
***
Death silently watched me as I placed a few blankets over the couch. I didnât want to see the blood splatters on the brown leather anymore. For the time being, it was the most cleaning I could do. I collapsed on the couch, feeling defeated.
Finally Blick and the man joined us in the living room. I glanced up at the man with hopeful eyes.
He ignored me.
âDeath, thank you for showing up so promptly. I do apologize for the inconvenience. Iâll take care of the matter from here,â the man said.
âYes, Sir. Thank you. Iâll be on my way.â With that, Death vanished into a puff of black smoke.
The man shook his head. âIâll need to talk with him about his exit.â
Trying to find a way to lighten the mood in the room and confirm, from an earlier conversation with Death, that the man before me was J, I said, âNo use of the color black, correct, Sir?â I realized we were past formal introductions.
Casually amused, the man chuckled. âYes, itâs so ominous. I told him he needs to work on his product presentation.â He removed his Armani suit jacket and tossed it on the couch. I noticed a Bluetooth headset stuck to his left ear.
