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

I watch as Daniel Molloy scribbles things down in a book he keeps by the side of his computer.

It was always hard to read the man. Of course reading his mind was always an option, but thanks to his past experiences with vampires he had become a lot better then most at shutting me out.

The last time he had interviewed a vampire he left with no laptop and a story with plot holes. Daniel had interviewed Louis before me upon Louis's request. Louis wanted to set the record straight about vampires and about what happened the day he had met a younger Daniel Molloy- i, myself, wasn't even sure what happened. At that time i wasn't even sure where Louis was.

Daniel looks up from his note taking, as if sensing that i was trying to infiltrate his mind and he takes off his glasses.

He sits back in his chair as he crosses his arms

"If it is alright with you, i would like to ask some questions about what you have said so far" He asks

I raise my eyebrow

"Have you not already been asking me questions, Molloy?" I ask, but I wave my hand for him to ask anyway

"I know that you said Lestat instantly took a liking to Louis... i wondered if you ever liked Louis in that way?" He asks

I smile as i look away

"Skipping ahead in the story never works out Daniel, you should know this" I say as i look back at him "But i will say that during the beginning of Lestat and Louis- when they had just met... my focus was elsewhere. Sure Lestat had his eyes on Louis, but i had my own sights elsewhere"

"After the night Lestat first spoke to Louis, he had been intent on speaking to him again." I continue, not feeling the need to offer him an explanation for my words... yet

"Lestat wanted to know everything about the man that captured his attention and so he got himself invited to a gambling match that he knew Louis would be attending.

I went out that night alone, I wanted to see what New Orleans had to offer, until i deemed it necessary to go back home before sunrise.

After a while Lestat returned home, he had an excited glint in his eyes as we sat by the fire and he told me of how he stopped time during the card game in order to talk to Louis- how he helped him out by switching his 5 of spades with someone else's king.

I warned him of the dangers to do with revealing ourselves to the humans, but he brushed it off.

Eventually, after a few days, Lestat and Louis had become friends. Louis would often ask Lestat how he did it- how he stopped time, but he would just brush his questioning off. They seemed to meet up quite often, just to chat and confine in the other- i thought it quite sweet how Lestat didn't jump into a romance with Louis however Louis would later say that it was him being hunted- which for the record i never understood.

It might have seemed strange, him fooling about with someone as i stayed at home or entertained myself elsewhere... but don't get it confused i wasn't unhappy.

As much as Lestat took to showing off his abilities inorder to confuse Louis and draw him further into his arms, i always liked to be genuine with my lovers.

So when Lestat exited the house one day and said that he was going to Louis's house for dinner i smiled to myself as i told him i would be out. Two could play at the game of love.

...

I had been going to the bruthel Lestat and i had found ourselves many times after that first night.
