If you were the last vampire on earth... it would be enough. Just you and me. Me and you. YOU AND ME!
"You, my love, are beauty itself"
OR
The retailing of Lestats life told by the closest person to the man himself- the only vampire on earth who kn...
True to his promise an art studio was made inside our home not even twenty four hours later.
We converted one of the spare rooms into my studio- it was not quite as beautiful as my one in France, but it would satisfy.
...
I stood over my newest painting with a straight face. It was bright yet it was dark, it was simple yet it was detailed... it was my newest masterpiece.
I stood looking at the painting for longer then i can remember. I stood there until a figure entered the room and placed a hand on my shoulder.
We both looked over the canvas in front of us as my face sat still.
"Another great piece, my love" He spoke.
Silence enveloped us once again before he spoke.
"Yet i find myself having to ask... why do you no longer paint couples as you used to?"
His voice trailed off as we stood facing my work.
"I've grown. I no longer find forfilment in painting couples like i used to... instead i have decided to paint feelings." I said as i turned around to face him.

(There is no artist found to credit- unfortunately but not my work)
He kept his hand on my shoulder as i looked up into his eyes.
"Feelings, i fear, have never been painted before. Feelings are complicated and never certain... i think they will be a new muse of mine- they are everywhere after all" I said as i glanced away from him "I no longer want to paint couples, but i also don't think i will paint you for at least a century" I said
I remember seeing the confusion in his eyes
"Why should i bother trying to paint something so perfect when i know i will never do it justice"
His confused look melted off his face as he moved his hand from my shoulder to cup my face.
"Some people are far too complex to capture" I finished
I smiled as i leaned closer to him.
It doesn't take long before my soft, kind words to leave the air as it heats. Lestat gathered me inside his arms as his lips traveled down my neck
"I'm going to interrupt" Daniel says
I get taken out of my thoughts as i blink a few times.
"Not even an hour ago you were explaining to me one of the defining fights you got into with Lestat and now you tell me you stood in your studio and kissed him only a day later?" He asks
I smile, softly as i think about it
"That's precisely the reason i cannot hide Lestats temper. Our relationship was either the fullest or the emptiest- there was rarely an inbetween-"
"Nowadays we call that toxic" Daniel interrupts with a deadpan face of boredom
"Maybe so... but it was exciting knowing that whatever mood passed between us we would always be together. Lestat and i knew that and so our fights resolved quickly... it did not mean that we did not fight however"
...
Lestat pulled back from my lips with a smile.
I looked up at him, my eyes filled with lust.
"I was thinking-" He started
"Well that only ends badly-" I interrupted
He smiled as he took my chin in his hold and brought my lips to his own
"Now, Now" He muttered into my lips before he separated us "I am only trying to appease you... i am trying to change for you"
That captured my attention and i tilted my head slightly in his hold.
"And?" I asked
"And i think we should have a dinner party" He suggested
I pulled back, my chin dropping out of his hold
"And why would we do that?" I asked with a raised eyebrow
"To strengthen connections- to show we are accommodating of our neighbours- to fit in" He said
I thought about it for a moment before a smile worked its way onto my face
"That's not a bad idea, my love... we could say it is a house warming party- we have only been in New Orleans for a week and a half" I said
Lestat smiled at my eyes lightening up
"We could show that we are normal- that we are humans" I said "Lestat you are a genius" I said with a laugh as he removed his hand from my face.
He didn't take a second before he stood up a little straighter and puffed up his chest
"I am aren't i?" He said
I rolled my eyes as i turned and began to walk out of the studio
"Wait-my love?! You were supposed to confirm again" He said as he followed me out
"I have a party to plan" I smiled as i glanced up at him from the bottom of the stairs "I don't have a moment to spare" I spoke before rushing off into the kitchen.
