Another Boring Day.

[Sasha Day]

Sasha hated the day time, there was nothing for her to do. Every day she took her daily run, came back to her house and fell asleep. Sasha's run today had been specifically long. She had decided to run in Bon Temps because she heard that the woods and winding roads made a perfect scene for a good jog. She had her hair pulled back into a tight ponytail and was wearing a white wifebeater tank top and pink booty shorts. She was listening to some hyped up remix of an old 90s hip hop song. She let her feet fall into the beat as she turned onto Renard Parish Road. It was a picturesque spot;lined with willows. She felt the sweat dripping down her tanned body as she ran. She looked around as she jogged past house after house. "I feel like I'm in some old civil war movie" she thought giggling to herself.

[Jason Stackhouse]

As Jason drove up the road he noticed someone running. He began to slow down so as not to hit them. As he got closer he noticed that it was a girl. A really hot girl. He had planned on mooching off his sister Sookie but this seemed like a lot better than some crappy sandwhich he'd have to make his self. She was as pretty as anything he had ever seen. She was tall and lean with killer legs and lord did Jason know how to use a pair of womens legs. Jason rolled down the window and slowed to a crawl. "Hey there pretty lady. You sure do stick out in a hick town like this. You new around these parts?" He sure hoped she was in town for awhile. The local townie chicks were getting tired and he could definitely use some new face. Jason gave her his best smiled and managed a wave with one hand. He was a man of many talents.

[Sasha Day]

Sasha didn't even notice as the car slowed next to her. She looked at the boy in the car, "pretty face, pretty body, not much in the attic" she thought to herself. She laughed and said in a terrible southern accent "What little ol' me?" She laughed dropping her act. "I'm from New York." She said as she continued on her jog. She wasn't stopping for some Hick. It's funny, Sasha had become all but nocturnal. Her contact with humans had been so limited lately. It was almost refreshing; not being the only one with a pulse. She smiled "I can tell you're not from around here... let me guess... Paris?" She said with a jaded sarcasm as she picked up speed.

[Jason Stackhouse]

"Well, well, well little miss has a bit of a pregnant dogy attitude. If I wasn't such a gentleman I would tell you to kiss my grits and blow dust in your face as I drove off...however I would never do that since I embody the word of gentleman." He liked her spunk and he liked that she was from New York. It was different and he needed to get outside of his comfort zone for once. "As a matter of fact you just happen to be correct, I am not from here. I am from somewhere you ain't never been to before I can assure you. You might not think I'm much in the way of smarts but I am much in the way of helping a lady out. Not that you would need it of course being from New York and all." He pulled his truck behind her and parked. Jason pulled him self out of the truck through the window and started to trot beside her. "I know I might not seem like much compared to what you are used to but hey you never know until you give it a try." He gave her his patented lopsided grin. "How can you refuse a man who is this desperate to know you? Come on, come have a drink with me at Merlotte's. Then if you think I am still some dumb country hick, I will leave you alone and you will never have to look into my gorgeous eyes again."

[Sasha Day]

Sasha loved the game of chase so she continued to look forward the entire time he spoke. "Oh yeah? Where from?" She amused his story. She was just about ready with a witty comeback when she turned to him and noticed his eyes. "d**n" she thought "He does have gorgeous eyes" She turned away again. "Well" she said glancing back "you may be all you say you are and more.. but still. I just don't think you're my type." She said laughing to herself. She was having fun with this one. She took a sip out of her bottle of water and let just a little bit dribble down onto her chest. She picked up the pace. "My name's Sasha." She said with a grin, picking up the pace yet again.

[Jason Stackhouse]

Jason was athletic but being athletic and being a runner were not the same thing. Especially since she was wearing almost nothing and he was wearing his heavy work clothes. "Not your type? Sh*t, you don't hardly know me to say something as mean as that." He followed the lucky drop of water with his eyes. She wasn't going to be an easy persuasion but Jason wasn't a quitter. "Sara was it?" Hopefully this would get a rise out of her and he would love to see something else besides the cool surface she was giving. Sasha was the most exotic name he had heard around these parts and he wouldn't forget it anytime soon. "I would love to show you exactly where I am from but I am afraid some one as stuck up as you wouldn't appreciate it." He was flirting playfully on her snobery as a northerner. Jason wasn't the brightest so he hoped like hell he wasn't offending her. "Since you haven't punched me out yet or told me to go die some wheres I am taking that as a good sign. I will show you that I can be any type you need me to be. I am just flexible like that! In case you cared to know, which I assure you, you will, my name is Jason Stackhouse and I promise that its a name you won't forget anytime soon." He flashed his killer grin one more time as the heat produced some sweat that trailed down off his face. He hoped to god he didn't look anything like Andy Bellfleur would in the heat right now.

[Sasha Day]

Sasha laughed as the boy struggled to keep up.
"Trust me" Sasha said as she laughed. She looked over at the boy... he'd be eaten alive in a vampire club. She looked at him again, he really was sexy.

"It's Sasha." She said with annoyance. She turned to him to continue but he interrupted her.

Since you haven't punched me out yet or told me to go die some wheres I am taking that as a good sign. I will show you that I can be any type you need me to be. I am just flexible like that! In case you cared to know, which I assure you, you will, my name is Jason Stackhouse and I promise that its a name you won't forget anytime soon

Sasha slowly came to a stop. She turned to him seductively and playfully "Really? Any type I want??" She laughed as she extended the side of her neck that had been hidden from him. At the base of her neck were two relatively new fang marks. She continued running half hoping she didn't scare him away, half hoping she did; ridding herself of temptation.

[Jason Stackhouse]

Jason's eyes went wide with surprise. "Holy sh*t girl, I didn't know you were all about that. 'Course why would I right, I mean we just met each other and I don't think that you would be saying everything about yourself right away."
Jason was starting to babble which is something he never thought he could do. Sasha was a fang banger...or maybe she was committed to some lucky vampire like his sister was. Either way, Jason was pretty sure he couldn't take on a vamp in a fair fight. He had stopped to think about this and as she passed him, his eyebrows raised at the view he was offered...then again he could always worry about that when and if the time came. "I don't know if I could bite you as hard as that but I would definitely give it my best effort!"
This Sasha was gonna be the death of him with all this running! When he caught up he could tell she wasn't irritated still and that gave him some hope. "Listen, as much as I love to get some heavy breathin time in, I don't usually do it out of doors...well I try not to do it vertically...sh*t there really isn't away for me to say this with out it soundin dirty."
Jason stopped and pulled her arm so she would stop. He bent over with his hands on his knees and looked up at her laughing. "I can't tell you why because I don't know but I really like you. I am not usually this honest but since I am close to death, confessing seems a bit easier. I want to take you out with me on a date. I'm no vampire and I doubt I would ever want to be one but I don't hate them. In fact my sister dates one and he's real nice. All I'm asking is one night and if you still need someone cold to hang with I wish you the best."
He was still breathing hard. "D*mn girl, if you just don't care then put me out now because its hotter than hell out here and I don't want to pass out chasing down the road something that won't ever be mine."
He looked straight at her and winked. Hopefully his little speech would have some affect.

[Sasha Day]

Sasha smiled as she noticed Jason trying to keep up. She laughed as he pulled her to a stop. She bent down to the point where they were eye to eye. "Ok. One date" She said tentatively, raising him up with her hand beneath his chin. She said bit her lip. Her and Ahmose weren't official, she wasn't doing anything wrong... right? But even if she wasn't wrong, she knew if Ahmose found out, he'd kill the both of them. She offered him her water bottle. "So where will this mysteriously wonderful date be?" She said leaning against the trunk of one of the many trees lining the street where they were standing.

[Jason Stackhouse]

He took a sip of her water gratefully and then splashed some on his face and ran his wet hands through his hair. After his breathing returned to normal his brain seemed to register that Sasha had said she would go out with him. Jason stood up straight and gave her the biggest smile. "Really? Isn't that somethin?" Jason put both hands behind his head and rocked a little on his heels. "I reckon' I'd go just 'bout anywhere you wanted. If you want we could head to Shreveport, I know the bar Fangtasia might be something you'd like if you never been. If you want a little bit more of the simply country life, we could always stay her and head to Merlotte's. Either way, I know we could have a fun time. Shoot, if Sookie's working y'all could meet and talk about vampires...I don't know if you would like that though." Jason was half talking out loud and half to himself. He was just so nerveous and excited at the same time he couldn't help it.

[Sasha Day]

Sasha laughed at the mention of Fangtasia. "I'd rather stay around here. Too many.. friends.. at Fangtasia. Merlotte's?" She laughed and said slightly nervously "I just have to run home to my apartment in Shreveport. Pick me up around 3pm? I have... some stuff to do later tonight." She gave Jason her phone number and address. She laughed at the boys smile, so cute and innocent. But Sasha knew he couldn't be as innocent as he looked. "See you later, Babyboy." She said as she continued her run Picking up speed. She turned around. "Jason!" She waved. "Just.. keep this quiet?" she said awkwardly. She turned around without waiting for a response and just kept running. Sasha didn't know what had come over her, but she was excited for tonight!

[Jason Stackhouse]

Jason stared at Sasha as she left him behind...man she did have a nice one...he seemed to involuntarily lick his lips. Jason looked down at his watch and then at the address she gave him. Sasha lived in Shreveport and didn't want him to take her to Fangtasia? He almost wondered if she would be embarrassed to be seen with him in such a public place in front of her friends. Jason headed back to his truck and picked up his cell phone off of the truck seat.

"Hey Catfish, yeah it's Jay. Listen man, I got to ask you a favor. Hell yes it involves a girl! Lord she is pretty...no man, nothin weird like that, I just need to leave work early today is all. Sure I will put in double overtime next week because she is so worth it! No she is from New York, yeah an ice queen that needs to be melted!" Jason laughed at a few more of his bosses pervy comments before hanging up to drive back and get ready.

"Sasha,just you wait girl! I will show you what a live man is all about. Vampires may be immortal but I got charm and stamina!" Jason smiled to himself.
