SETTING IN TIMELINE: Slip it in anywhere during the Milwaukee years.
SPOILLER/SUMMARY: Carmine learns too late just the lesson Shirley's been trying to teach him for years: don't fraternize with strange women...
NOTES: I've been planning this fic for over a year ;-). Thought it would be interesting to see what kind of a vampfic could come out of the L&Sverse...

Shirley followed her strongest instinct and screamed...right into Carmine's hand.
"I'm sorry, Shirley..." He wiped his bloody mouth on the back of his free hand.
"Sorry?!" She whispered, "Sorry, for turning me into an undead, fanged creature of the night?!"
He flopped backward, onto the bed, "Shirl, you're really dramatic. Besides, I didn't drain enough out of you to turn you."
She indignantly held her hand over her throat, "How do you know?" She retrieved a brown scarf from her bedside table and tied it tightly around her throat.
He shrugged, "That girl who attacked me sucked and sucked and.." She had turned dark red, "Not like that," He laughed, "She left a little bit left in me, you know? So that I'd stay somewhat...human." He shrugged, "I'm working on my guts, Shirl. I think she could have drained me all the way, if she wanted. I probably would've died then."
"And me?"
"And you...I made sure not to drink too deeply. You should have more than me left in you."
She frowned, "Carmine...Promise me that you won't take any further liberties'...with me, against my will."
He nodded, "You should be OK." He kissed her forehead, "Sorry, Shirl."
She watched him creep from the room. Only when he left the apartment did she huddle into a ball, shivering.

"And...Freeze!" Carmine stopped, at the very tips of his toes. Gratefully, his exhausted students paused, panting.
Carmine guilty realized the reason behind their exhaustion; he had worked the class especially hard. The routine felt like nothing to him, but a bunch of six year olds..well, they all looked exhausted.
"Sorry, guys; class dismissed." They seemed extraordinarily happy to leave him there.
Carmine daubed himself with a towel; he wasn't shocked to see a fine film of red on the towel. All of that exertion and he hadn't broken a true sweat. Good thing, he thought grimly.
A slim, pale hand pulled the door open. He wasn't surprised to see a sexy, petite blond standing by the doorway.
"Hello, Carmine."
"Lucille, we broke up last week."
"Sweetie, I know you didn't mean that...we're meant for each other...don't you miss your..." He found her words abnormally hard to focus on. All he could see in the mirror was her pure, snow-white neck.
Her sweet...soft...snowy neck...
No one will miss her...her husband couldn't give a shit if she just...
"Carmine? Are you listening to me?" She stepped toward him.
...Poof...
Her expression turned serious, and she placed a hand on his shoulder, "Carmine, are you okay?" Lucille Lockwash asked.
And that was her fatal mistake.
