Thursday, 3/20/08 Who: Arc and Xander Where: downtown When: evening What: Arc finds herself in a vampire feeding den and calls for help. N.B.: Xander's turn.
Over the past couple of weeks, Arcelia started to befriend a guy named Noel when they met in the hallway . They flirted, increasingly so over the last few days, and she thought he had relatively interesting hobbies - scuba diving, rock climbing, even though he was a vampire.When Stan invited her to come downtown to visit a hot club, she agreed because she thought it'd be a good time.
They agreed to meet that Thursday night, and Arc asked Jeffrey to look after Caitlin then. She walked outside the school and headed over to the taxis, getting inside one before saying the name of the street. Apparently she'd meet Stan outside and then they'd walk in together, which worked just fine for her. She wore a black dress that fell past her knees, though she only chose it because it was still chilly outside.
The drive there took fifteen minutes and she exited the taxi, peering around to see where the guy was. She was relieved to find Noel after a couple of minutes, waving him over and giving him a flirty smile in greeting. "Hey there," she said. "So where is this hot club you mentioned?"
"Hello," said Noel with a lazy and pleased grin. "It's over here." He led her down a couple of alleys and then walked down the basement stairs of one of the buildings. Arcelia noticed that there was someone behind the sliding peekhole, with whom Noel shared a muttered word. She thought nothing of it and continued to follow him into the club. People, or small groups, scattered around the room as music played, dim colored bulbs illuminating various parts before flicking to others. She only thought it was a normal club, with people dancing, talking, or making out, and walked with Noel over to the bar.
A couple of minutes later and a cocktail later, Noel asked her to dance. They did, and the way Arc danced, it was no surprise that they closed part of the distance between them as their dance became flirtier. She leaned in to kiss him not long after, and things heated up in no time. He guided her back to one of the walls, one of his hands wandering up while the other trailed the outside of her thigh. He was a good kisser, good enough to distract her, and she welcomed his hand caressing her more.
Their bodies pressed together, Noel's fingers slipped underneath her underwear just as his mouth moved to the crux of her neck and shoulder. Her hips moved towards his hand and she grasped at his skin underneath his shirt. That continued for a minute until two piercing jabs hit her, and she glanced at him to see Noel had bitten her. It hurt like hell and she tried to push him away. His grip was tighter than she realized, no thanks to his vampiric strength, and he continued to bite her. He tore off her underwear and as soon as he tried to probe her with his fingers, she kneed him as best she could. Noel let go, bent a little in pain and groaned, and Arc started to weave her away towards the exit, digging her phone out of her purse.
Xander had a car and he would help her. He had to right? She managed to call his number and waited for him to answer anxiously. "Xander? It's Arc. I'm in the city and I need your help," she said, quickly giving him the street name.
