About as fragile as a bulldozer, *Alfred thought anachronistically desperately.*
"I'm not toying-" *he protested.*

"I will not be swayed by your sweet words of temptation, Alfred!"

*Had he said anything? He was quite sure he hadn't said anything.*
"I don't know what you're-"

"You and your exceedingly well-shaped backside can- oh, to hell with it. Zira? Can you get over here?"

*The angel abandoned the hors d'oeuvres to approach the little gathering.*
"Friend of yours, Herbert?" *he asked obliviously.*

*Alfred looked from the chubby blonde to Herbert, sympathetic horror on his face overtaking the ferocious blush that had spread across his cheeks. So this was the poor man that the fiend had chosen to focus on now. But he didn't seem all that opposed to the vampire- perhaps he had him under some kind of enchantment! It was the only explanation.*
"I am so sorry," *he mouthed at Aziraphale, much to the angel's confusion.*

"This is Aziraphale," Herbert said with a trace of smugness as he put one arm over the angel's shoulders. "My lover."

*Terribly confused again as to why Aziraphale wasn't trying to escape, (surely no one would be with him willingly! And another man?! These things simply didn't happen!...Right?) Alfred smiled nervously.*
"Oh. Er, hello."

*Aziraphale returned the smile, though his brows furrowed slightly. The boy was certainly giving him strange looks.*
"Very good to meet you, er..."
"Alfred," *the young vampire volunteered quickly.*

Herbert, oozing self-satisfaction, embraced Aziraphale more fully and added "We're going to be living together."

"Er, I'm very happy for you," *he began uncertainly.*

*Aziraphale smiled happily, but awkwardly. He could tell quite easily that they'd met before, and it hadn't gone well. The boy, he noticed, seemed almost frightened out of his wits.
Best not to dwell on it, he decided.*

"Come along, Zira," Herbert said, smiling serenely at Alfred just as he turned and began walking away.

*Alfred would have been perfectly content to let them leave, but he felt that he couldn't let a fellow victim fall prey to whatever horrible things the vampire had in store. As they passed, he whispered something in Aziraphale's ear before scurrying off to rejoin Susan.*

"Well?" Herbert demanded. "What did he say?"
