The Last Vampire on Earth ?? | OC x Lestat | Interview with the Vampire

Lestat lowered himself beside me as he joined me sitting on the floor.

My head, too heavy to keep upright, leaned against the wall behind us both.

"Tout ce que tu as à faire est de me dire quand je suis là" Lestat whispered into my ear

(All you need to do is tell me when, i am here)

I managed to nod as beads of sweat dripped down my face.

I huffed instead of breathed- my chest felt like it was going to collapse with every intake i took.

"Tu n'aurais pas dû rentrer chez toi pour voir Nicky ? Pourquoi t'es-tu arrêté ici en premier?" I breathe out

(Shouldn't you have been going home to see Nicky? Why did you stop here first?)

Lestat looked at me in somewhat anger

"Nicholas does not matter right now, why do you bring him up now?" He asked, angered that i was concerned about someone else when i was dying

I took in another shaky breath as i answered "I need... i need a distraction- speak to me"

I coughed as the words tumbled out- the noise of me straining to breathe the escaped air back inside my frame made me cringe

"Please" I whispered as i sat back

He nodded, slowly understanding

"I had a feeling... almost as if i had to come here" He admitted as he started to run his fingers through my tangled hair- my bun had long since dropped out.

"Shouldn't you... shouldn't you be with Nicky. I remember you telling me once about how you like to visit him every night... by his window... just like a Shakespeare play" I muttered with a small smile in awe

Lestat sighed "Truth be told i am avoiding him" He admitted "He has grown suspicious of me- he's poking his head too far into my business- he's bound to find out who i am... what i am. When he finally finds out i am not sure he will be able to live knowing that we are two different species... i am worried it will get into his head and make him do something irrational"

I pulled in a laboured breath as i breathed

"Will he asked to be turned?" I asked out

Lestat nodded "Probably... but that is non of your concern, you need to focus on saving your energy- that should be your first concern"

I let out a choked sob, not sure why i suddenly felt self pity "I can't even be a human properly Lestat, how will i live as a vampire? I should have never asked you to turn me- i know i will just mess it up just like this life"

Lestat let a sad smile pass his lips "There is no guide to living... i know that first hand, mi amour. You will be a great vampire and with me to guide you... we will be powerful, we will be beauty" He whispered the last words lightly into my ear. His breath moving my hair

(My love)

It grew quiet as the only sound to be heard was my lungs as they struggled to pull in air.

"I have only been turned a handful of years" Lestat admitted as he pulled away, drawing my attention back towards him "When i- we- rescued Nicky from Armand and his coven I realised how little i knew about my own kind... i have been going to him for lessons" he admitted "It's how i was able to start reading your mind- how i was able to appear behind you at the theatre... you won't just know everything when you turn, but i will be here... On peut tout foutre en l'air ensemble" He said before he glanced ahead of us

(We can fuck it up together)

I chuckled, but before i could stop it turned into a fit of coughing. I held my hand to my mouth before i sat back in exhaustion.
