Just like when he was human, Nick didn’t know he’d been asleep until something woke him up.

Unlike when he was human, it was harder for Nick to wake up as a vampire.

Maybe he got more disoriented because of that.

Maybe he was slower on the uptake, too.

He was definitely easier to throw off balance.

That was doubly true when he woke up smelling seer all around him.

It was even more true when that seer felt familiar, and safe.

For all of those reasons, and maybe a few more, it took him a few seconds longer than it should have to connect his being awake to his very hard cock, the realization he wasn’t alone, that this wasn’t a dream. There were hands on him, actual physical hands. His mind immediately went to Jem. It took him a few seconds longer to realize there was something off with those hands, even as he realized they were undressing him.

Then, all at once, he was awake.

He was really awake.

He sat up sharply, moving so fast, his upper body was erect before those thoughts had meaningfully gelled. He stared down at a pair of blue-green eyes, a soft but nearly heart-shaped face, small pale hands that had already unfastened most of his shirt and unbuckled his belt. She had her hand on his cock and he was horrified to realize he was hard, that he hadn’t dreamed that part, and he still hadn’t moved away––maybe in shock, maybe in some lingering hope he was dreaming, that something would indicate for certain that none of this was real.

She smiled at him, eyes liquid and pupils black, and something finally jolted him out of whatever the fuck had paralyzed him.

“Jesus fuck…”

He blurted the words out as he threw himself up and backwards. He half-vaulted over the armrest of the couch and fell over the other side, in what was maybe the least dignified thing he’d done physically since becoming a vampire.

He crawled backwards as she moved, snake-like, towards the same armrest to peer over at him on the hardwood floor. He was breathing too hard, now dazed, and staring up at her… at the face of a seer child… feeling like he would probably be throwing up if he had the physical constitution of a seer or a human.

As it was, he felt sick, disturbed, revolted.

He crawled backwards, his eyes on her warily.

Once he was back far enough, in his muddled mind, at least, he flipped over and got back to his feet. He immediately began to button up his shirt. He had it done up and was shoving it back into his pants and buckling his belt as he continued to back away.

“How the fuck did you get in here?” he growled.

She didn’t speak.

She watched him with those shocking, blue and green eyes, eyes that were somehow both older and younger than they should be. Something about the way she looked at him made him feel like he was losing his mind. It wasn’t only the blown-out pupils, which were disturbing enough on a damned child… no, there was something familiar in that look.
