For the Bite of It

Vince turned back to the piano. At least he could lose himself in his music.
“Oy vey! Not the piano again,” Angelo groaned. “Before you start that caterwauling, you should hear this. He hasn’t left, you know.”
Vince shrugged hearing the words but not really listening.
Angelo grabbed Vince’s chin and forced his face around. “Listen to me. John hasn’t left.”
Vince blinked away the cobwebs in his brain. “Say that again.”
“He’s sitting in his car in the driveway.”
What the hell was John still doing here? He should be halfway to the moon by now, as far away from Vince as he could get. Shouldn’t he?
Angelo released Vince’s face. “I’m in Stupidville. How hard is it to understand what I just said? Your detective is sitting in his car in your driveway, looking like he’s lost his best friend.”
A flare of hope sparked in Vince’s chest and surged into a full-blown symphony. He tamped it down. “I can’t let the J get to him. Maybe it’s for the best, this way?”
“Go. You fooled the entire ruling council of the vampires once before. Surely you can deal with them again?”
True. He would find a way to make it work. In three seconds flat, he was out the door and peering in the driver’s side window—though he remembered to run there not teleport. John sat with his head leaning back on the seat.
Vince wanted to shout for joy. Tell the entire neighborhood that his world was drenched in light and hope again.
Except John probably wouldn’t appreciate that.
Instead, he stepped around to the passenger side and opened the door. John’s head jerked toward him, his eyes widening.
Vince held John’s gaze. “Couldn’t leave, huh?”
John shook his head, and relief warred with anticipation in Vince’s chest.
Vince slid into the seat and smiled like a fool as John reached over and fisted his hand in Vince’s hair. “If you’re getting in, just do it and shut up.”
Vince’s grin almost split his face. “Silence is my middle name.”
The End

Vina Grey, a dyed in the wool romantic, has been writing romance for ten years but this is her first male/male love story. Her inspiration comes from the fabulous mm romance authors she has read, and from watching the real life love stories of friends. On any given day, if you run across her in the parking lot or the grocery store, you might find her muttering to the twenty or so characters that usually live in her head, just begging for their own story. Driven by wanderlust, and having lived and traveled across the globe, Vina draws landscapes and myths from diverse cultures. She currently lives in the mystical southwestern United States—but that could change.
