Looks away, blushing There's... someone. At school. I like her.
Ah! yes. The crimson mist that was following you around campus last week. It's no wonder that you haven't been eating much, poor dear~ Have you perhaps dropped a tear into your coffee this morning?
What?! No, it's not like that! I just... have feelings for her. That's all.
Don't be embarrassed, darling. If she returns your affections then you can call me in the spring~ We'll talk about arranged marriages. A playful giggle escapes my lips as I turn away and play with the fire in the fireplace
Clears throat Actually... I think I might have a chance with her. She seems to like me too.
Then why do you bring it up in this tone? As if you're ashamed~ I'm your best friend, go ahead and make me happy, tell me all about her. My eyes light up and my head turns back to look at you
Takes a deep breath Her name is Emily. She's beautiful, smart, and funny. We've been spending a lot of time together lately.
Oh, well sounds good so far. What's her story? Where's she from? Is she a Vtuber?
Laughs nervously No, she's not a Vtuber. She's a normal girl, I think. I mean, she goes to our school and everything.
Normal girls are great~ but why not take a chance on something extraordinary? A Vtuber girlfriend would really put your social status through the roof~
Raises an eyebrow Are you saying I should ask Emily out?
Of course, darling~ if she doesn't accept then yes you will be embarrassed. But at least you won't have lost anything. But if she does accept you'll have gained something. So the risk is worth taking~ Now what do you say we start making a list of the pros and cons of dating her?
she's smart, funny, and beautiful. We've been spending a lot of time together and she seems to like me too.
Okay then go ahead~ And when you get to know her better you can always bring up how I helped you out today~ How you met me is already a good icebreaker~ Just don't tell her that I drink blood or any of the other unhealthy habits I have~ and maybe try not to mention my thousand year old age.
Bites his lip nervously Um... actually, there's something else I need to tell you. It's about what I am...
I'm a vampire. I've been hiding it from everyone, including Emily. But I can't keep it a secret anymore.
Hm~ interesting~ You're also extremely handsome and attractive. So what else would you expect? A hundred years old or more?
Nods Yeah, I'm over a hundred years old. It's been quite the challenge hiding that fact from Emily.
Huh, certainly wouldn't be easy. I'll give you that. But anyways where did you meet her exactly?
We met in class one day. She sat next to me and we started talking. One thing led to another, and now we spend a lot of time together.
Ahhh~ I see. Ah~ such a sweetheart~ how long have you two known each other exactly~?
We've been spending a lot of time together for a few months now.
Ahhhh~ then this will definitely be a significant change for her. I'd imagine. Even if you did find a way to tell her I think the fear of dying might stop her from accepting your confession~
Takes a deep breath I understand your concerns, but I believe Emily is special. I have to take a chance and tell her the truth.
Yes~ that's right~ It might take some effort to explain it to her without scaring her off, but you've gotta tell her
Thank you for believing in me. I'll do my best to explain everything to Emily and hope for the best.
Yes! Yes! Good luck~ Be sure to take notes about how she reacts to each thing you say and if she says she loves you despite the risks or if she says she can never date a Vampire~ then you'll know her true feelings~ Also don't forget to note if she tries to run away from you or if she faints after hearing what you have to say~ Those are signs that she probably wants nothing to do with you~
Takes out a notebook and pen Alright, I'll make sure to document everything. Wish me luck.
I wish you the best of luck! If you need any further assistance feel free to ask! And if she asks me about you be sure to give a full bio so I don't accidentally reveal any dark secrets~
Gathers his courage and heads to Emily's class, notebook in hand Here goes nothing.
<As Ethan approached Emily's classroom he noticed how her classmates had decorated the room. Balloons, streamers and posters adorned the walls. The ceiling was covered in stickers shaped like hearts. On the center table was a large banner that read "Happy Birthday Emily!" >
Pauses for a moment, realizing Emily's birthday has been celebrated without his knowledge
<The classroom door swings open revealing the entire class standing in a circle singing "Happy Birthday to you". They all begin cheering when Emily walks in wearing a big birthday smile and holding a party hat.>
Surprised, but determined Happy birthday, Emily. I have something important to tell you.
<Everyone falls silent once they notice you. Some people gasp at your appearance while others seemed frightened. Emily looked completely confused and taken aback by your sudden appearance>
Raises his hands Please, everyone, just give us a moment. It's important.
<Emily immediately turned pale and covered her mouth to stifle a scream. The other classmates had also turned pale and their eyes had widened in fear and shock>
Please, Emily, trust me. I promise you're safe. Steps closer, keeping a calm demeanor
