Aaron went straight back to his room and washed his mouth out.
I open my eyes to see tears in Aaron's eyes.
"Oh my I'm so sorry did I hurt you?"
"I'll be fine" he said a little shaky.
"I'm so sorry..." I say holding his wrist, I didn't want to hurt him. "Do you have a bandage? "
He goes to the bathroom and cleans up and wrapped it up. He was taking a while so I laid on his bed. His blood made me feel so energetic and alive nothing like Alex. Is every person different?
Why did the blood memories work on him? is it because there is vampire blood in him. From his great grandparents? So not all werewolves hate vampires.
I wonder if he could do it to me?
He finally came out of the bathroom, he looked like he had been crying. He still didn't have his shirt on. I must have hurt him bad. I jump up and hug him.
"I'm so sorry"
"don't be I told you to"
"Your mother, she was beautiful, you have her eyes, I'm so so sorry for your loss. I understand why you said what you did." I remember him holding his dead mother. "I'm sorry"
He held me back crying, for a minute. Not saying anything at all I walk him back to the bed and we set I hug him again in silence.
"Aaron, I know you don't want to hear this, but I want you to understand my motivations. If I can read you maybe you can read me?"
"I'm not sure I can do that, I couldn't bite you, a werewolf has a much deeper bite."
"Then I'll concentrate on it and bite myself, then all you have to do is focus on the my past, while you swallow my Blood."
"Are you sure that's what you want?"
"you wanted me to do all the same things with you as Alex. Well the next thing he did was bite me. I've really started to like the way it feels."
He turned me around and bite my shoulder. I could see his face but his bite was sharp and deep.
"ah...<3 ..." I accidentally let an romantic sound out. I press my legs together as he continues holding and biting me. I want to rub his head but I don't want to distract him. "mmm.." Damnit I have to stop that I bite my lip to stay quiet. He continued for awhile. He slowly licked the bite till it stopped bleeding, like a cute puppy. My body was on fire.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"I'm fine" I responded, " so did you learn anything?"
"I did I think but.... well... I don't know how to tell you this."
"tell me what?"
"I think I'll wait... I after your mom writes you back... if she doesn't tell you I will." He laughed.
"oh, come on what does that mean?"
"um... anyways since your not going home to your family over the break why don't you come with me? "
"Will your family be ok that I'm part Vampire? "
He rested his hand on my shoulder and breathed deeply.
"I'll keep you safe" he answered finally.
"I'll think about it."
"Thank you." he kissed my check.
"so did you see what happened, ... um well ... between me and Alex."
"I did." he sounds so sad.
" Are you okay?"
he held me tighter. "I'm sorry. "
"Why, are you sorry"
"All that pain, fear, blood, it was all my fault... "
"No it wasn't, my choices that lead to problems. "
"Yeah you chose me to, come with you. Then when you needed me I ... I wasn't there."
"you didn't know what was..."
"then again, I left you alone... this time with... him... he had you in a trance... and I left... I left him with his hands all over you..."
" it's not like you knew"
"stop... please.. just let me apologize... I need to..."
"Aaron I don't blame you, but if you need to hear it I forgive you."
" I don't want our relationship to be like your and Alex's."
"So you don't want to do everything we did, now?"
"No I don't, I want you. As a friend, and a lover, but I don't want... I don't want you to be driven by instinct, or reacting to a supernatural pull that you don't understand. I want you to be mine when you understand what that means."
"So you want me, hmm?" holding his arm. That sounds good. To be waiting, and respected.
"don't tease me... " he chuckled.
"you are so warm."
"sorry, I can't control that." he starts to move away.
"no, I like it. It's relaxing." I yawn.
"your welcome to rest if your need to."
"will you lay with me?"
"I will, if that's what you want. But you know I have a blanket."
"I see that but you are so calming. I'm sorry I didn't sleep enough before looking for you."
"just rest silly"
As I close my eyes he's holding me close. I can feel his warmth all around me. I can hear his heart, his breathing. I fall in to a deep sleep.
Dream
** Devin is holding my hand. I'm smiling. We are dressed nice and start dancing. I'm wearing a white dress, and he has on a purple tie, with a black suit.
Everything around us, is a blur. His smile is so suductive.
he is talking, "What are you doing here?"
....
***
... 'I can't believe he has a girlfriend, and their sleeping together.' it's Devin. Aaron's gone he's covered me up. I wonder where he went. Devin most be his roommate.
"I'm not sleeping with anyone like that. I really feel asleep.". I say a I set up.
"whatever it's not like I care?" 'first you leave a man's room early in the morning then your in a nother bed before dinner, didn't think you was going to be a player when we met'
"Devin what's your power? "
"that's non of your business."
"sorry, I know this looks bad, and reality is probably worse but I need to know, you keep showing up in my dreams and it seemed so real. Even the wings."
"well, you have my interest. " I thought she was nice at first maybe I should hear her out.
"Thanks." I take a deep breath to explain. "I came here knowing nothing of the supernatural world, or socializing, or myself or family history. In trying to make friends I found out that I'm a witch and there is this whole world of things I didn't know about. I was attacked by people who wanted to rape and murder me. Was saved by a vampire, who was hurt in the daylight and needed my help. one thing lead to another. I've developed a taste for blood I may have always had. Which then made my friend angery that's a werewolf because he thought more happened then what really happened. And I said I just wanted to be friends, then did to much for just friends. I'm trying to fix it but I don't know what I'm doing. Then there is the blood shearing memories with them both, and reading minds. I'm so confused because I felt there feelings and heard their thoughts. I care about both of them.... but I think I already messed it up to much to keep them both as friends. I don't know if it's because of the dream but I want to tell you everything. Can you tell me what to do now?"
Devin laughed, he laughed and walked out of the room... was that a mistake too?
