Drusilla went down in the cellars to where Bob was at. "Master, Master Bob! We have a cute visitor that Walter was raving about~ She's here~" Drusilla giggled as the coffin opened up. She steadily walked up to it but Bob was not in it. Bob manifested behind her which startled Drusilla. "Master, you shouldn't startle me like that!"

"So, she is? I can't wait to meet her in the flesh."

"She is in the living room. Right this way, Master." Drusilla guided Bob out of the cellar and up the stairs. She couldn't help but to look back again. "Of course... You're gone." She sighed before continuing her way out.

You still waited for Drusilla and Bob to arrive. You took out your phone as Vivi placed her hand on your shoulder. "I am going to check on Katherine. I'll be here shortly." Vivi left the living room. Things went quiet from there. You heard a text message go off and you typed in your phone's password and pressed the messaging app.

Lisa: Good afternoon, (Y/N). Sorry if I wasn't too interested in movie night. I guess between my studies and my worries for Bart made me feel drained. How are you?

(Y/N): No worries. I figured you would anyway. I am doing well right now.

Lisa: That's a relief. Where are you?

Oh boy, how will you even tell her? You're at Count Bob's castle and you don't know if she will flip. You were hesitant but proceeded to text her. Things got darker as you did. A shadow loomed over you, fangs ready to lunge, hands ready to snatch you. "It's so nice to meet you, my dear~" The shadow formed into Count Bob himself.

You turned your head immediately as your heart was pacing rapidly. "Oh my god! Oh, hello- Count Bob, right?"

"Yes, Miss (Y/N). I do apologize for my approach behind you. Hmhm, it can tend to be a habit with most people I meet."

His laughter was quite charming off the bat. You got off the couch and walked up to him, dropping the phone. "That's alright. Should we go anywhere?"

"Oh, of course unless you want to sit and chat here for a bit? Katherine can bring the food here or we could eat in the dining hall."

"I think the dining hall would be nice."

"Splendid! Take my hand." He put his hand out and looking at it closely, he had sharp nails. You were nervous. You heard a notification sound from your phone but continued to stare at his hand before taking it slowly.

"Are you alright? No need to be frightened, I won't bite." He guided you with him.

"I'm fine, I am just nervous about things lately. I mean, I just can't stay long, my boss needs me later." It was starting to get awkward already.

Bob couldn't help but to grin but hid it from you, "I understand. It won't be long. Our conversation can be short." You and Bob made it to the kitchen as he helped you to your chair before he could sit down himself. "What would you like to eat?"

Katherine came in with a plate full of butterscotch cookies and a cup of black tea. "Master Bob? It's nice to see you up and early."

"My dear Katherine, (Y/N) and I are hungry. I request for you to make us a quick meal since (Y/N) needs to go to her job later."

"Right, what would you like to have?"

"I'll go with the pepper steak," he replied with his chin resting on his hands. "Go on, (Y/N), tell her what you would like to eat."

"I guess I will go with chicken noodle soup. It's good to have on a cold day."

Katherine bowed, taking in the request. "Right away. I do agree with you about that. Quite a cold day indeed." Katherine headed back to the kitchen.

"Do they always have to do that?"

"Do what?"

"Bow. It's not like I'm royal or important."

Bob clicked his tongue as he wagged his finger, "Ah but you are, my dear. You're our special guest and they bow to us because we are important. They must follow my every order and address guests like you with the utmost respect."

"I guess that makes sense."

Meanwhile, Lisa was still waiting for your message. "Ugh, it's been 20 minutes. She hasn't even replied to my message or called me." Lisa placed her phone onto the kitchen counter. "I should just check if I have to go anywhere today-" From the corner of Lisa's eye, she noticed someone peeking from the bushes but they fled for her to see who they were. She checked but no one was there. "Hmmm, strange. I don't have time for this. I will just send her a voice message." She took her phone and pressed the recorder. "(Y/N), I am going to do a few errands right now. I hope you get back to me soon. I am a little worried about you. I will say, ever since Halloween has been drawing closer by the minute, I have been suspecting odd activities." With a sudden hand covering her mouth, Lisa dropped her phone, causing it to shatter. She was muffled and struggling by her captor.

"I am not here to hurt you," said her captor.

Her eyes widened as they shifted towards his face. He let go slowly as she was finally able to speak. "Bart? Is that actually you? What's with the edgy, biker getup?"

"Nevermind that, (Y/N) isn't here and I am assuming she went to that castle."

"Bob's manor? Yes, is there something wrong?"

"You know that something is wrong, sis. Bob shouldn't be trusted. He is planning something and I know he wants you both. Be VERY careful. I just wanted to warn you. Sorry we haven't talked for a while but let's say I wasn't doing quite well."

Lisa hated to say it but she had to. "Bob's a vampire, isn't he?"

"YES! And I am trying to figure out a way to infiltrate his lair and take him out! His vampire maids were pretty strong the last time I escaped."

"You were trapped in his castle?! Ugh, I wanted to not panic about it since (Y/N) and I talked. I need to call (Y/N)!" Lisa was about to grab her phone but growled in anger. "You do realize that my phone cost $700 dollars plus the phone plan that went with it?!"

"Oh relax, I will get you a new one, I promise."

"You say that but then you make an excuse that you forgot. We need to contact her fast!"

"Lisa, breathe, I am going to tell you like it is. Bob is going to be one of those typical vampire lords who swoon and act all nice towards his prey then once the time is right, he is going to claim her anyway he can. Right now, we should be fine."

"But what if-"

"Nothing will happen." Bart placed his hands on Lisa's shoulders. "I just need to know where our parents are before I dip."

"I think they are still on vacation for the week. They'll be back on Sunday."

"Good, we don't need mom to worry. I am gonna hit the road, sis." Bart was just about to climb back in the window but Lisa pulled at his shirt.

"Bart, I have a door."

"Oh, right," Bart laughed awkwardly.

After Eating and talking with Bob, he walked you through the halls, showing you around the castle. "Thanks so much for the hospitality, Count Bob. Your place is really nice and you're a gent."

Bob chuckled happily, "Why thank you, my dear. It was nice having you here. I can't wait to see you at the party. You are coming over right?"

"Yeah, I just want to see if my friend wants to join me. I get a little nervous being alone at big parties. Socially awkward."

"Oh, I understand. Events like that can be quite overwhelming. I will let you get back to what you need to do." Bob took your hand and gently kissed it. "Farewell~" You blushed before taking your hand away. You headed down the hall and to the foyer. Vivi was behind Bob. "Have Walter escort her to her job."

"Yes, my lord," Vivi bowed before leaving to find Walter.
