Drabbles from AD (Rated G-PG)

[MickLifeCrisis]

Several 100 word, between the lines drabbles from Arrested Development.

Rated G-PG
Characters: Mick and Beth


I want you to admit that something happened between us.

To you? I can barely admit it to myself. I still can’t believe you offered me your blood. I never wanted it to happen like that. You not only nourished my body, but my soul as well. If I still have one, that is. When your blood hit my tongue, it was sweet, spicy and wonderful. I know you have feelings for me, even if you don’t realize it yourself, yet. I could taste them. And it scared me. Because I have feelings for you, too.

Okay, okay. Something happened.


**********


You understand that I’m a vampire, right?

I’m a vampire AND a monster. I FED from you for chrissakes! I could have killed you!

I don’t want to encourage you. If I had returned your calls, it would have just led you on. Where do you see this going? Do you possibly think there can be an “us”? There can’t be. It’s too dangerous. I’M too dangerous. I can’t let this go any further. I can’t let myself want you. I have to protect you. From me.

Besides, you’re taken. Remember?

And don’t you have some dinner that you’re giving?

This is the part where Mick repeats Beth's inquiry.

How does it work?

The “sex thing”? Between humans and vampires? Is she thinking what I think she’s thinking? Oh, what I wouldn’t give to hold her and feel her and…

Come off it, St. John! You know that relationships with humans are difficult, dangerous and complicated!

I know. But everything “works”. Everything “fits”.

But then you’d have to bite her.

I can’t do that.

You bit her in the desert.

I can’t let it happen again. She doesn’t know what she’s asking. I have to keep the distance between us. Put her off this crazy idea.

It doesn’t.

OMG, I love these. I loved that scene at the morgue... them arguing in the hallway with people walking by them, glancing at that beautiful couple hissing whispers at each other. These are perfect little voiceover gems.

I especially love the third one, with Mick admitting almost to himself that he wants her.

[allegrita]

Yeah... Mick arguing with himself...

[maggatha3]

Sounds as if Mick has been sharing his most intimate thoughts with you...he has been talking to himself for so long..

[jen]

These are great!

Can't you just hear Alex' velvet voice read these?

Thank you Allegrita, Francis, Maggatha and Jen for your lovely comments! I enjoy the challenge of 100 word drabbles. And I especially love it when Mick shares his intimate thoughts with me!

[jen]

Absolutely!
