He's ... in LOVE with me?

Chapter Eleven

[VOTE AND COMMENT PLEASE THANX!!!!]

Joey's P.O.V.

After we found my sister, we went and took Isaac home. He seemed like a good kid, maybe we wouldn't have a problem. Sydney was not getting her heart broken if I had a say in it. My sister seemed to like him too. I would do anything to protect her. But I was happy that she was happy, and I was ecstatic that Vascaria was in love with me. She was all I could think of as I drove her home. With her right next to me I felt whole, I felt complete. Like nothing could ever be bad because I loved her and she was mine. She was my number one priority. I couldn't stop thinking of her smile, her laugh. Her sparkling eyes that I felt were seeing past the player and were reading my soul. She loved me and I would never want anyone but her. All of those other girls were just to pass the time. To get my mind off of the first girl that broke my heart but I guess she hadn't completely broken it, not all the way. Vascaria seemed to have shown me that it was never really broken. Just waiting for the right girl to fix it up again. All of those other girls were flukes. Fakes who wanted my status and looks. Vascaria seemed to want more though. I smiled at the thought of her love for me. In the back of my head though something was nagging me. I knew she was keeping something from me but I had forever to figure it out. I sighed turning to look at her.

Vascaria's P.O.V.

He sighed and looked at me. I smiled half heartedly. I knew I had to tell him about me eventually. I just wondered if he wouldn't love me still if he knew I wasn't human. I couldn't bear the thought of losing my only love. Throughout hundreds of years I thought I was fine on my own. But when I found Joey I knew something was missing. I finally found the missing piece to my void. The first kiss I'd actually ever had was with him, and I was glad it wasn't wasted. There had been times when I'd 'been' with people. I was definitely not a virgin. But even then I made sure to never kiss. Those times with men were just ...times you know? They never meant anything. Basically I was seventeen but truthfully I was over 800 years old. 800 years made me almost sure that I didn't need another someone. But in a few weeks time I had found my other half. Just in case you are wondering the aging goes like this: I am exactly 857 years old I was born in 1154 A.D. I age about 1 year to 50. So I'm technically really young. My dad is pretty old and he says we can never really die, but I was only half vamp. My dad aged 1 year to every 100 years so I didn't know if I would die with less struggle than him. I really didn't care though. I had never been afraid of death; now I'm only afraid of Joeys death. That is, if he has one. I debated whether to change him or not; if I even tell him about me. I decided on waiting a week or so just to see how everything goes. We got to my house and my parents car wasn't there so I guessed they went out. This was such a coincidental opportunity; how serendipitous. I smiled to myself.

"Would you like to come in?" I asked.

"I would love to." he smiled, and I giggled.

We got inside and I noticed a note on the table in the hallway.

'Darling, Went to Vegas, we'll be back Wednesday. We'll bring you back some loot!

Love, mom and dad'

Yes! Home alone for the weekend! I thought to myself. This would be a nice peaceful weekend. Then I remembered that Joey was still there.

"Um so uh, something to drink?" I asked

"Please, and thank you" He smiled.

I brought him some water and we went to the living room. Taking the water out of his hand I set it on the coffee table. I turned to look at him. He was staring at me so I blushed. I looked into his eyes and I couldn't read his expression.

"Um, so what are we now?" I questioned, looking into his yes.

"I'd say a couple. Considering we're in love."

I couldn't stop thoughts of him proposing to me from rushing into my head but I quickly pushed them away. I stood up and grabbed his hand pulling him towards the stairs. Don't get freaked out, now that we're an item I decided a little bit more teasing would be fun. As we climbed the stairs I knew all he could do was stare. We got to my room and with him still behind me I slowly unzipped the dress I was wearing and let it gradually inch down my curvy figure. Looking over my shoulder I saw his mouth agape and eyes wide. I was in a strapless black lace bra and matching thong. I snickered and turned around quickly, slowly beginning to walk toward him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him close.

"So Joey," I purred into his ear, "How much do you want me now?" using his exact words.

I was going to pull away and put on some clothes but he stopped me, grabbing my waist and pulling me as close as I could get. Desire swept through me and by the looks of his eyes, him too. But I wasn't ready yet. I wanted to wait until I changed him. He kissed me but after a few seconds I pulled away not wanting to go too far. Instead of looking for my pajamas I pushed his jacket off and unbuttoned his shirt and slipped into it. No work of finding clothes for myself and I get a great view!

"Why did you just take off my shirt?" he asked but of course he smirked too.

"Because I didn't want to look for pajamas, and with this choice comes a great view." I giggled.

He smiled. "So where are your parents?"

"Vegas, they won't be back until Wednesday."

"Cool so what do you want to do?"

"Um, Wanna watch a movie?" I asked, he nodded.

I walked over to the cabinet full of movies under my television. I had over 200 movies that I loved to watch from time to time. In the end I picked 'I Am Legend', because I knew he'd probably like it and I'd only seen it once. I may be almost invincible but the weird vampire things in the movie freaked the hell out of me. We snuggled up on my bed with my head on his chest. I gave him a pair of my dads pajama pants to borrow and I could tell my closeness was getting his 'little friend' excited. I smiled at the thought that he really did want me. The movie had gotten to a fairly creepy part and when one of the creepy things jumped out of the darkness I turned my face into his chest. His arm tightened around me and I breathed deeply. The over whelming scent of his blood was masked by his general smell and the sound of his heartbeat. It was so calming to hear his heart beat in unison with mine. My eyes closed and the last thing I remembered before I dozed off into sleep was his warm lips on my forehead. I also heard a quiet whisper that sounded like 'I love you'.
