That one night (a short story)

He walked around like one of the undead and she was simply stunning. 
That, too, fit well in the party theme that evening: 'Vampires and werewolves'. 


He didn't dare talk to her but fired on by a friend and some alcohol he approached her.

A few weeks later she went with him to the beach. 
She rubbed suntan lotion on his back and it took a while 
before he was able to get up without exposing himself. 
He was hot and not just from the sun.

A week after that she came to dinner. 
Pure nerves made him ruin the food. 
But she ate on unperturbedly and told him she liked it. 
That's when he knew that they were good.

That night she was 'too tired to go home' and so she slept in the guest room. 
As did he.

And it didn't end that one night.
