Summary: When a thirsty Ruiza comes to Tsunehito to explain why he and Asagi have been avoiding him, Tsunehito can't stand to see his good friend suffering. He offers Ruiza his blood, unaware of the consequences of sharing his blood with another vampire who is not his lover.
Author's Comment: My D muses have been pelting me with ideas so I've come up with a vampire idea for them. Lover's Blood is a part of a longer vampire story that I'm still developing. I can't even remember how I came up with this idea anymore, it just seemed like it'd be interesting to write and it gave me a chance to develop Tsunehito and Ruiza some more.
It’d been three days since Tsunehito had last seen Asagi and Ruiza. Communication was brief and limited to texts. There were no phone calls, no visits… something was clearly wrong. Ruiza was barely texting him at all and Asagi, who usually signed his texts with hearts and other cheesy things that made Tsunehito roll his eyes as he smiled, was sending short, snippy messages. He hadn’t even asked how work was. What was going on? The insecure part of Tsunehito put it down to his lover and friend being bored with him. He was just a human after all—why would two vampires want to stay around a human for so long? The rest knew that wasn’t true. Asagi and Ruiza adored him. They wouldn’t just get tired of him like that. There was clearly a problem with the pair, but everytime Tsunehito sent them a message it was ignored or brushed off with a simple I’ll tell you later.
Tsunehito had just received such a message from Asagi and was ready to scream. Damn secretive vampires! What the hell was going on? Scowling, he started dialing Asagi’s number. If his lover wouldn’t answer the phone he would just go to his apartment and bang on the door until Asagi let him in. Tsunehito paused as he heard knocking on his balcony door. What the hell? He set the phone down and went to the door, pulling the curtain aside to see Ruiza standing outside. The blonde vampire gave him an awkward smile then pointed at the door. Tsunehito sighed as he opened it, wind stirring his hair. “You can use the front door,” he said dryly.
Ruiza shook his head. “This was easier.”
Tsunehito stepped back so Ruiza could enter his apartment then frowned as he noticed his eyes were… red. A thirsty vampire’s eyes would change to a deep, blood red only to fade to their normal color once they’d drunk blood. Tsunehito had never seen Ruiza with red eyes before. Why wasn’t he drinking blood? Was this the mysterious problem that he and Asagi refused to address? “Your eyes,” he said softly.
“Did you just get home from work?” Ruiza asked.
Tsunehito glared at him. “Don’t come into my apartment after ignoring me then ask me about my damn job,” he said, crossing his arms over his chest. “And yes, I did just get home.” Figuring out what was going on with the two vampires had been more important than changing out of his uniform.
Ruiza ducked his head in apology. “I’m sorry. I know… Asagi and I haven’t been fair to you lately. And I’m sorry that we’re ignoring you.” He looked troubled as he brushed his hair back. “We’re doing it for your own good.”
For his own good? What was that supposed to mean? “Rui, what do you-” he trailed off as the vampire started speaking again.
“Asagi and I have been… careless. We usually store blood packs so we don’t have to use the machines so often, but we drained our supply. Five days ago we went to the vending machine to get more blood and… it didn’t work. We couldn’t access it at all. We tried other machines and none of them worked. I… I don’t know why, but the blood machines have been shut down.”
“What?” Tsunehito whispered, eyes widening. They couldn’t use the vending machines? Shit, how would they get blood then? From him? From other humans? He knew how much Asagi loathed feeding off of people. As far as Tsunehito knew, Asagi only drunk his blood or from blood packs. He assumed it was the same with Ruiza—aside from drinking his blood. Tsunehito had never offered his neck to the vampire before.
Ruiza nodded sadly. “Yes.”
“Why?”
Ruiza shrugged. “I only have theories. Asagi and I believe the old vampires tampered with the machines. They’ve always loathed the machines, saying it’s unnatural for vampires to feed from blood packs instead of from a living human. They insist that it is a vampire’s duty to drink from humans so we can… decrease the population.” Ruiza gave Tsunehito an apologetic look. “This is why we avoid you. We’re afraid of hurting you… him especially. I just… couldn’t leave you in the dark any longer though. So I had to come see you.”
Tsunehito slowly rubbed his temples. His mind was reeling from this new information. Stuffy old vampires tampering with the technology of the new vampires, Asagi and Ruiza being out of blood… this was a disaster. “Is someone going to fix the machines?”
“I don’t know. I hope so.”
“Until then… how will you get blood?”
Ruiza bit his lip and looked away. “I don’t know,” he whispered, voice strained. Tsunehito took a step closer to him. Ruiza, always so pale, was even paler today and the veins exposed by his t-shirt were more pronounced than usual. He was also not breathing. Now that Tsunehito thought about it, Ruiza hadn’t taken a breath the entire time he’d been in his apartment. Vampires didn’t need air to speak; it was just habit to breathe between their words. Was Ruiza so afraid of losing his control and biting Tsunehito that he didn’t dare to breathe around him? It was touching that he’d come out here to tell Tsunehito what was wrong. It would have been easier—safer—to call, but Ruiza had come in person.
Tsunehito watched the vampire deliberately not looking at him. Slowly he tilted his head back and made a show of adjusting his necklace. Ruiza’s eyes darted to his exposed throat, lips parting slightly to show the tips of his fangs. He quickly averted his eyes, fingers curling into fists at his sides. It pained Tsunehito to see Ruiza suffering so much. But he didn’t have to.
“Rui.” The redhead moved closer to him, catching Ruiza’s arm as he started to retreat. “Drink my blood.”
Ruiza flinched as if he’d been slapped. “You can’t offer me your blood!”
Tsunehito frowned. “Why not? I just did.”
The vampire gently bent Tsunehito’s hand off his arm. “That’s because you don’t understand what you’re offering.”
Tsunehito glared at him. “I am offering you my blood, which I offer to Asagi as well.”
“That’s because he’s your lover,” Ruiza retorted.
“And you’re one of my best friends! Why won’t you let me help you?” Tsunehito demanded. How would giving Ruiza his blood be any different than letting Asagi drink for him? They were friends, not lovers like him and Asagi, but they were still close, the blood would be willingly given… what was so terrible about that? Especially when Ruiza so desperately needed blood?
The vampire briefly closed his eyes. “What you are asking me to do is unspeakably rude. Drinking from another vampire’s human lover is… terrible. It is such a deeply intimate, personal action that it just isn’t done—unless a vampire wants revenge. Vampires are… as you’ve noticed… rather possessive of their human lovers. They do not enjoy sharing and will kill other vampires if they dare to drink from their lovers.” Ruiza raked his hair back then gave Tsunehito a frustrated look. “If I drank your blood, it’d be like I was fucking you. That’s how intimate it is! The only reason I’m standing in front of you is because of Asagi. He gave me a second chance at life and I could never betray him like this. I’d rather suffer than drink from his lover.”
Tsunehito blinked. He knew biting was intimate but he’d never known how rude it was to drink from another man’s lover. As Ruiza compared biting to having sex, he smirked. “Sorry, Rui, but I’m only human. It isn’t rude to me and I will definitely not leave Asagi for you so…” he trailed off as he tipped his head back again, baring his neck for the vampire. “Drink. He doesn’t have to know if it makes you so uncomfortable.”
Ruiza hissed in displeasure. “Tsunehito! Don’t tempt me,” he growled.
Tsunehito was so startled to hear those angry sounds coming from gentle Ruiza that he actually dropped his head. Ruiza’s eyes kept darting to his neck and then away. He clearly wanted Tsunehito’s blood but was too determined to be honorable to drink it. Still, if he didn’t drink then he would only suffer more. Tsunehito unbuttoned the top two buttons of his dress shirt then tipped his head back again to expose his throat.
Ruiza cringed. “Tsune… stop… please…” he whispered as he started to back away.
Tsunehito caught his wrist. He expected Ruiza to resist, to pull away, but the vampire’s hand was limp in his and he let Tsunehito pull him closer. “It’s okay, Rui. You can drink my blood.”
Ruiza shuddered as he was brought closer. He looked at the redhead and something in him… snapped. Ruiza’s fangs slid down as his hands flew up to grab Tsunehito’s upper arms. He moved them so quickly that the living room became a blur. Tsunehito hissed when his back connected with a wall with enough force to make the picture on it rattle. That hurt. There wasn’t much time to think about his back since Ruiza was leaning towards his neck. He tightened his grip on the redhead’s arms as his fangs sank into his skin. Tsunehito winced slightly and slid his hand into Ruiza’s soft hair to hold him against his neck in case he decided to pull away. The vampire’s hand moved to his waist to steady him while the other cradled the back of Tsunehito’s neck, keeping his head turned so he would have easy access to his blood.
Being held like this by another vampire made Tsunehito understand just how right Ruiza had been. This was deeply intimate. Asagi would usually hold the redhead close when he bit him, stroking his hair or his body while he drank his blood. Tsunehito shifted in discomfort then froze as Ruiza growled against his neck. The vampire tightened his grip on his waist, fingers digging into fabric and skin to hold him in place. They couldn’t keep this a secret from Asagi if Ruiza gave him bruises because he thought Tsunehito was trying to escape from him. The redhead kept as still as possible, body relaxing slightly as Ruiza pulled away from his neck. There… that should be enough for him.
“Better?” Tsunehito asked. He felt blood dripping from the bite mark and reached up to brush it away. He froze as Ruiza seized his wrist. His eyes were still blood red and lacked the warmth they usually held. “Rui?” Tsunehito hated how small his voice sounded. “Ruiza!” he squirmed as the vampire leaned towards his neck again. Tsunehito jerked in surprise when Ruiza leaned down and licked up the blood dripping down his neck. The redhead flushed as his body automatically arched into Ruiza’s when the vampire bit him again. Damn it! This wasn’t Asagi! He had to control himself. Ruiza pulled him into his arms, holding him close against his body as he continued to drink.
Tsunehito’s discomfort increased over their reactions. Worse, he was starting to feel dizzy. He clutched Ruiza’s shoulder for support as his legs shook. “Rui. Stop drinking… Ruiza!” he gave the vampire’s hair a sharp yank. He expected to be growled at and held tighter, but Ruiza drew back from his neck. Seeing his own blood staining Ruiza’s mouth and fangs was disturbing. Still holding him, the vampire locked eyes with Tsunehito as he slowly licked his fangs clean. Chills went down the redhead’s spine at how… eerie that was.
“Ruiza. Let me go,” Tsunehito said, refusing to look away. He wouldn’t show fear or weakness when Ruiza wasn’t himself.
The vampire blinked. “Tsune?” The mad hunger faded as his eyes slowly turned back to brown. Realizing he was practically crushing the redhead against his chest, he quickly released him.
Then he disappeared.
Tsunehito slowly pushed himself away from the wall. Ruiza was standing as far away from him as possible, looking tormented. “I’m so sorry! I… I hurt you…” Ruiza bit his lip in guilt. He took a step forward when Tsunehito slumped back against the wall again. His head was spinning and his legs felt like they were going to give out. Ruiza had drunk more blood than he was used to giving.
The vampire quickly moved to Tsunehito, gently taking his arm to steady him. “Are you okay? Should I take you to the hospital…?”
Tsunehito grimaced. He hated hospitals… especially going with a vampire. It was worse than going with a fussy parent. “I’m fine. Just dizzy.” And uncomfortable from the way both of them had reacted to the biting. Ruiza had obviously enjoyed himself… too much. But he’d never shown any physical or romantic interest in Tsunehito so the redhead knew it was just the vampire in Ruiza that had enjoyed the contact so much.
Ruiza bit his lip again. “Okay… tell me if you change your mind.” He draped a supportive arm around Tsunehito’s back. “I’m so sorry, Tsune. I… I should never have bitten you. I lost control and I drank too much. And I… I’m sorry… for holding you like that. I haven’t bitten a human in a long time.” He still looked tormented as he led the redhead to the living room. Gently he sat Tsunehito down on the couch, watching in concern as he slumped back against it. “I’ll make you something to eat. You need protein after losing so much blood.”
“I’m fine.” The redhead rubbed his face. “And I’m not hungry.” He ate dinner before heading home so wasn’t hungry enough for a meal. Especially one that Ruiza prepared.
Ruiza frowned. “You really should eat something to keep your strength up. At least have some candy! Or fruit… do you have any meat? You do need protein.”
Tsunehito sighed. Vampires! They could be so fussy sometimes. So much for the stereotypical portrayal of the cold, self-absorbed vampire. Asagi and Ruiza could be even more fussy and motherly than his own mother had been. “There’s a basket of fruit on the counter. I’ll have an orange.” Ruiza would probably nag him until he gave in and ate something. Asagi always did the same thing, worrying about how thin Tsunehito was and trying to get him to eat more.
Once he’d eaten an orange, had some juice and a candy bar (Ruiza had insisted he eat more) the vampire relaxed enough to sit next to him. “I’m still so sorry,” he apologized for what felt like the hundredth time. “I should never have bitten you.” He gave Tsunehito’s neck a troubled look.
“Stop apologizing. You needed blood, I offered… what’s done is done so there’s no point in feeling guilty over what happened.” Tsunehito leaned back against the couch and stretched out his legs. He should get up and change into something more comfortable (and see if there was blood on his collar) but that required him to move. Tsunehito didn’t trust his legs to support him.
"I still feel terrible..." Ruiza glanced at his neck again then flushed and looked away, expression tormented.
“Well stop! You were just going to suffer more if you didn’t drink my blood.” He wondered if he would have to use a food analogy to make Ruiza calm down. They always irritated Asagi but even he had to admit that Tsunehito was right.
The redhead watched as Ruiza opened his mouth to speak then paused. What was happening? Tsunehito tensed as he realized Ruiza was probably using his vampire telepathy to talk to Asagi. Shit. Was his lover going to be pissed about this? Ruiza had been so upset at the thought of drinking from him so Asagi… might get angry about this. He always did get more possessive when he was thirsty. If Asagi was pissed at him for helping Ruiza, that was his problem. Despite the awkwardness Tsunehito didn’t regret helping Ruiza. And he wouldn’t apologize for it.
He blinked as Ruiza blanched then covered his face with his hands, shoulders shaking slightly. What had just happened?
"Rui?" Tsune asked. "What's wrong?"
Something had happened... But what?

The redhead watched as Ruiza opened his mouth to speak then paused. What was happening? Tsunehito tensed as he realized Ruiza was probably using his vampire telepathy to talk to Asagi. Shit. Was his lover going to be pissed about this? Ruiza had been so upset at the thought of drinking from him so Asagi… might get angry about this. He always did get more possessive when he was thirsty. If Asagi was pissed at him for helping Ruiza, that was his problem. Despite the awkwardness Tsunehito didn’t regret helping Ruiza. And he wouldn’t apologize for it.
He blinked as Ruiza blanched then covered his face with his hands, shoulders shaking slightly. What had just happened?
"Rui?" Tsune asked. "What's wrong?"
Something had happened... But what?

no subject
Date: 2013-05-13 06:40 pm (UTC)It really is, that's why it's such a taboo to bite someone else's lover.
I actually have a fic with Asagi showing Tsunehito what the blood machines look like.

Date: 2013-05-13 06:58 pm (UTC)I would like to know what the vending machine looks like! Can humans buy blood from the machines as well?
no subject
Date: 2013-05-13 07:50 pm (UTC)Tsunehito twisted slightly so he could see, noticing the vending machine against the far wall. It was tall and painted black with red buttons and designs on it. A camera was set into the top and the machine had a digital display playing. It showed bottles marching, but it was impossible to see the contents of the machine.
Only vampires can use it. There's a camera set into the top of each machine and it will display the blood packs once a vampire shows their fangs. There's also what's basically a vampire ID card that they use if the machine is placed outside in human territory

no subject
Date: 2013-05-17 07:47 am (UTC)It is :/ He would basically be lunch if Asagi took him to vampire places. The only way he'll get to see it for himself is if he's a vampire but Asagi wants him to stay human

Date: 2013-05-13 05:38 pm (UTC)I am really looking forward to read the next episodes of this. Ruiza is such a sweetheart here, I hope asagi doesn't make him suffer much for what he did.
no subject
Date: 2013-05-13 06:44 pm (UTC)Ruiza is sweet... and he feels horrible for hurting Tsune because they're such close friends. Ruiza is more worried about what Asagi will do to Tsune than what he'll do to him

I have no idea who these boys are, but this was very well done and I think I'll keep reading this one. The world you've made seems pretty interesting.
Vampires make me happy. And fussy vampires can be even more fun ^_^.
no subject
Date: 2013-05-13 07:53 pm (UTC)Tsunehito and Ruiza are in D. Tsunehito is the redheaded bassist and Ruiza is the blonde guitarist. Asagi, Tsunehito's lover in this fic, is the vocalist http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zf0w16UZf6o
Thank you, I'm glad you like it despite not knowing know who the characters are!
Vampires make me happy too... so long as they're done well. I'm trying to make this the anti-Twilight lol. Haha they are! But Asagi won't be fun when he finds out that Ruiza drank his lover's blood

I want to know what happened, what Asagi and Ruiza conversed about if in fact that was what Ruiza was doing or has Rui fallen for Tsunehito after that little bit of intimacy? Eeep! I want more!
I read this the other day on my phone and planned to comment yesterday because I don't care for doing so on my phone and of course LJ just had to go and crash. Couldn't get on at all yesterday :( and I still can't access my journal aside from my friends page :/
This was quite awesome my dear and can't wait for the next chapter. And WELCOME HOME!!! <3
no subject
Date: 2013-05-17 04:03 am (UTC)Oh wait until you read Chapter 2 *cackle* Pretty sure Chapter 3 will end on a kind of nasty cliffhanger too... I haven't decided yet.
You'll find out what Asagi and Ruiza talk about in Chapter 2. Oh that would certainly cause trouble if that did happen! This useless website finally worked so I was able to post it
Ugh LJ :/ I don't get what the problem was but it was barely working since yesterday. I just got your PM
Thank you!
