"CASPER. What the ******** man, pay the ******** attention, or I'll castrate you!" Val yelled angrily and grabbed a fist full of pale locks that sat in front of her. The bar was closed, but only for another thirty minutes.
Casper, who had been off in LaLa Land, finally snapped to and locked Val's wrist between his fingers and squeezed, resulting in her letting go of his hair. He stood up easily and moved away, his grey eyes dull. "Stop yelling, you'll scare off the customers." his voice was monotonous, almost bored sounding. He acted as if he hadnt just been having a steaming hot flashback.
Val snorted and reached under the bar, wrapping her fingers around a small shot glass. The tiny cup went flying through the air, colliding with the man's head and crashing to the floor. "What customers?!" she screamed and put her hands on her hips, an angry scowl on her face. "You need to get your s**t together and fly right! You cant be the owner of one of the hottest bars in the Underground, when you cant even focus for more than five seconds!"
It was the blond's turn to scowl. He reached up and rubbed the spot that had been hit, then moved towards a door that said in large letters, "EMPLOYEES ONLY" with "bitches" in smaller letters under it. He sighed at Val's cursive insult, then pushed through. The inner chamber was decorated in reds and whites of varying shades, but it all went together perfectly. This room wasnt really just for employees, but by putting the sign on the door, it prevented people from wandering around and thinking they'd get special treatment from the bar owner himself. As if. There was only one person he had his eyes on anymore, and she was missing from his life.
Sinking down into one of the red sofas, the tall, beautiful man groaned. There had only been one woman to come into this room, and that was back when he was just the manager of the place. She hadnt left his mind since then. He had even gone as far as to name the place after her. Val called it obsession, he called it love. It took only minutes for the man to slip back into a flashback, this one much more vivid and electrifying than the last.
---Her scent was everywhere. It lingered on his skin and collar, and everywhere else she had kissed and sucked and licked. She could smell him everywhere too though. They werent completely naked yet, but at this moment they were close enough. Her hair was too short for his liking, but her skin was perfect, as was her body. Her eyes were a shade of caramel he had never before seen. She was exotic, beautiful, forbidden. As she leaned down to press her lips to his, the pale haired man had the sudden urge to declare his feelings for her. They had known each other for not even three hours, but Casper knew she was going to leave an imprint on him---
There was suddenly something prodding him in the side, but he wasnt quite sure what. Said something also had a voice. A very high pitched one. Cracking a grey eye open, Casper looked up to see Lyn, his adoptive daughter grinning above him. He wouldnt have known it was her if he didnt know the beauty mark under her right eye. Pink hair flowed past her shoulders and glowed in the low light of the Red Room, her grey eyes twinkling. A black bow topped her head, and she wore a sort of school girl skirt with red wedges, and a white shirt that said 'I <3 Haters' on it.
"So guess what Daddy?" Her voice was wind chime like, almost like music to Casper's ears. She was barely reaching her 18th year, though she looked like she could have been 16.
He hadnt officially adopted her, because she was technically a Nightshade just as he and Flower were, but he had at least taken care of her, seeing as her parents were no longer around. She was about as easy to take care of as Flower, though had to be taken shopping at least twice a week so that she could completely revamp her appearance in the coming month. It was odd to llive with someone like this, but Casper figured if he could handle Flower, then he could handle her too.
Letting out a grunt to show that he was paying attention, the long haired man kept his eyes closed.

"I feel like, I've just seen the sun for the first time, you make my life bright cause you shine~" Two very off key voices came from my living room, belting out the lyrics to some stupidy over played song.
As I walked into the living room, I saw an almost naked Raine bouncing around with a mic in her right hand, and a completely naked Flower with the other mic in his left hand. He too, was bouncing and flapping around.
I was officially scarred for life. The large flatscreen held the lyrics to the song with an overly cheesy flower bouncing on the words that were supposed to be sung. The failed so hard at this that I couldnt stop the smile that tugged at the corners of my mouth. Seeing Flower's flapping wang helping me regain my composure merely seconds before Raine turned and saw me. With a squeal, she launched herself into my bag clad arms.
Between the three of us, I was the only one who could go to the grocery store and come out with actual food (because Flower had once come out with a basket full of gummy worms, Raine usually came out with a basket full of Coronas and wine).
"Casper, come sing with us!" she yelled happily and took the bags from my hands and tossed them to the floor. Well, there goes my eggs and bread.
"Mmm...no thank you Raine. I've got things to err---do--yea--bye. Dont break anything this time."
