approached a body slumped over making sucking noises. I realized someone was slumped over a cow lying in the pasture. The figure looked up and behind. The sight paralyzed me. It was Nadia. Her eyes a glow; her fangs were unmistakable. She left in a flash. I did not go on the date. I guess I must have mentioned the place that I was staying at because she showed up there the next day. She was waiting for me in the lobby. “Please Frank let me explain.” She confronted me. “Are you gonna suck me dry or turn me into a vampire?” I was trying to ignore her. I attempted to go upstairs to my room. “No I promise. I only use cow's blood.” She grabbed both my arms forcefully but gently. “You are cultist who gets kicks from pretending to be a vampire.” I released my arms from her. “I don't know what the word cultist means but I don't pretend. I am a vampire.” “How old are you? Three hundred?” “My body is like a twenty year old girl so I'm twenty.” She thought. “We are people; just a different kind of people. I want a boyfriend just like any other girl.” “Why don't you date another vampire?” I still contemplated fleeing from her. “There are two kinds of vampires. There are those that drink cow's blood and those that drink human blood. My family is the only ones left that drinks cow's blood. Besides I like you. You have the most powerful aurora I have ever felt. I know you're different. You talk different and walk different. But you’re handsome and I'm really turned on by your aurora. This aurora tells me that you're very kind and have a good character.” We took to strolling hand in hand amongst the pastures. We came upon a cow. We petted the cow. “Obtineti vaca iesi de aici” yelled the running farmer; banishing a pitch fork at Nadia and me. We fled across the pasture. “What's his problem?” I panted. “He wants us to stay away from his cows.” “Makes sense.” We stopped on the road, “Why doesn’t he just drain blood and sell it to you all?” “They’d never do that. It’s superstition. Besides they don't like gypsies and they don't like vampires.”
I slept in my room when my door burst opened. It startled me awake. The light flicked on illuminated four men in my door.
“Don’t get up! No formalities necessary. We just come for a chat. I chat you listen. You go home, yes. Now. Yes, you go home. We don’t kill you. Okay. Now you talk you say yes.” “What have I done to you that you would want to kill me?” “I never meet Americans. I’ve been told you believe rights. No rights you go home. You say yes.” “Why do I have to go home? I like it here. I like Nadia.” “Why do you ask questions? No questions No Nadia . You go home. Good bye.” The men left and I went back to bed a bit unnerved. When morning broke; a knock came on the door. My first thought was the lynch mob was coming back. But why would they knock. I opened the door. Nadia came in the room. She hugged and started kissing me. Her tongue slipped on to my tongue. I was aroused. We kissed more and more. “I love you, Frank.” She kissed me more. “You're so beautiful.” I replied as I continually participated in the kissing. “I want to marry you.” She declared in between the kissing. “That is something I could give future consideration.” “Really?” “I’m starting to.” I replied to her. “That’s good.” She continued to embrace me. Then she stopped. “I have big problem. You know I can’t you know till I get married. I’m a
