Awakening

"What time is it?" She asked reaching for her cell phone, but remembering that she forgot her phone. "6 p.m." he answered. "Next time you should remember your phone." He added, with a smirk on his face. Her face turned red with embarassment and she had to look away, knowing he was right. She went back to her book and started reading quietly, wondering what was in store for her tonight. Unconsciously she reached up and rubbed her neck from the other night, feeling the two holes where his fangs had sunk in. He had fed from her, told her that he loved ler, and now it was like he didn't care.

'Should I just get up and leave? Will he care if  I do?' She wondered. Talking to herself in a low enough voice that she thought he had no chance of hearing her she said, "He obviously doesn't. He just wants to feed from me, and that's it! What was I thinking?" She stayed sitting in her chair for a few minutes longer, pondering what his intentions with her were. 'He told me he loved me, was it all just a lie?!'

After a few minutes longer of brooding, she grabbed her things, stood up and started walking quickly towards the door, forgetting that she had to walk past him to get to the door. When he grabbed her arm, she screamed a bit in surprise and turned around to look into the face of the one she wanted to be with, but thought she had no chance with. He looked at her curiously, wondering why she had packed up all her things and was walking towards the door.

"Don't leave" he said, low enough that he knew she could hear him. "Why shouldn't I leave?!" She said, near tears. "You fed from me, then it seems like you just don't  care!!!!" Then he added "I love you, I would not have fed from you otherwise, and you know it. Please don't leave my love." He looked at her and smiled reassuringly, gently stroking her arm to prove his point.

She looked into his deep blue eyes, and walked slowly towards him, into his arms almost as if in a trance. He pulled her towards him, wrapping his arms around her, reassuring her that he loved her, and that he wanted to be with her.
