(Alternate Ending)

Hugging his sore ribs even more, Dean turns from Seth and starts walking away.

"Wait!" Seth quickly walks up to him then grabs his arm gently to get him to stop. "Where are you going?" A tear finally manages to slide down his cheek. He just could not let him walk away.

"I'm going back to the store then I'm home. I'm done."

"Are...we done?" The vampire's voice cracks in a failed effort to keep his emotions under control. "I love you, Dean. Stay...stay with me."

The declaration hangs in the air between them. Seth stares intensely at the back of Dean's head, hoping desperately that he would turn around.

"If you love me then let me go."

"I love you too much to let you go."

A low chuckle is heard from Dean. "And here you said that you would never do anything against my will. "

He's right, Seth thinks to himself. It hurts but he's right. His hand falls away from Dean's arm. Dean doesn't even look back as he walks away. Each step painful to Seth as the last. Just as Dean is about to turn the corner...about to walk away forever...

Dean is suddenly grabbed then dragged back into the alleyway. Instinct cause the man to fight for his freedom.

"Please forgive me." Seth's fingers bury themselves into the soft auburn curls. "I meant what I said." A sharp tug and Dean's head is pulled back. "I can't lose you again."

A hand is placed over Dean's mouth as fangs pierce his neck. His screams are muffled as Seth for the second time drinks from him. The longer Seth suck in the red substance, Dean's resistance lessens. Only when he becomes limp in his arms does Seth's mouth move from his neck. He licks his lips as his bloodlust-laced mind scrambles for to what to do next.

A year later...

The sky is an inky black. Stars dot it like fireflies caught in its dark web. Below a bustling city ripe for the picking.

Seth turns away from the window to the king size bed where silk sheets barely cover the naked sleeping body on it. He can't help the smile that forms. Knowing that he gets to spend the rest of his unlife with the one he loves unconditionally can do that. He pads silently over to the bed, his robe taken off along the way. He crawls in next to his love then drapes his arm over the uniquely cut waist. He buries his face into their neck, inhaling the scent that he craved from the moment they met.

Seth knew that night that he could not let Dean go. The vampire refused to have the rest of his days be lonely ones. So he claimed the mortal that night in the same alleyway that he first saw him.

"That tickles, Seth." Dean's raspy voice comes out in a purr.

Seth lifts his head. "Sorry babe. Had to get you up somehow."

"Do I have to? Can we just stay and fuck all night like before?"

Seth nips at Dean's bare shoulder then follows it with a kiss. "Oh don't worry we'll do it again. But the night is young and there is so much I want to show you."

Flashback:

He could hear Dean's heartbeat starting to slow down, he had to act quickly. Seth slides his hand from Dean's mouth. He brings his wrist to his own lips then bites down hard. When he tastes the first drop of blood, he places his wrist to Dean's lips.

"Drink Dean. Take it. I belong to you as much as you belong to me." he says softly.

A beat later and a euphoric rush washes over Seth as he feels Dean takes his first drink. While Dean is doing this, Seth places his mouth next to his ear and speaks in a whisper. Each breath of a word taking away memories and making new ones. The young vampire made sure that Eternal One would never leave his side.

Dean turns over. Golden eyes reflect back into Seth's own. A smile baring fangs just like his.

"Can I get a kiss first? I mean, I don't get outta bed just for anyone."

Even as an undead, the former pizza deliverer is still a smartass.

"I think I can do that." Seth says right before giving Dean that requested slow drink of a kiss.

Was it cruel to take Dean away from his family and friends and the life that he had? Maybe. Was if selfish? Of course. Is Seth sorry? Not one bit. He got his pizza man. That's all that matters to him.

The End
