I was sitting in the parking lot outside Fangtasia. It had been an eventful evening, to say the least. Waiting for my girlfriend, at the time, to show up to work her shift,I noticed an unfamiliar face in a town where everyone knows everyone.
The heartbeat was what called my attention to him first. I thought I was alone in the parking lot until I heard the rhythmic pounding of his pulse. Looking up from where I was standing,scanning the parking lot, my eyes falling on him as he sat in his truck several rows away from me.I could sense he was different right away, being a telepath I pick up on things fairly quickly.
I decided to keep an eye on him until Felicia arrived,too nervous to walk through the parking lot alone and call attention to myself. So I stood in the shadows and waited until her car pulled in before hurrying inside to finish the argument she and I had earlier.
He came inside almost immediately after I did and I was again overwhelmed with a feeling that he was different,but not in a bad way.I wanted to talk to him, Felicia forbade it,told me that he was a witch and she could tell he was bad news. As far as she was concerned I was not to have any interaction with him at all.
The fact that I was not allowed to speak to him only made him that much more intriguing. I watched as he hassled Felicia throughout the night, wanting to say something,ask something, just learn more. Instead I kept my mouth shut and let her have the control over me that she always did, and I watched as he walked out the door of the bar,kicking myself for not giving into curiosity and disobeying Felicia in order to learn what made this guy tick.
