An Angel For A Mate

Chapter 3

Gage's POV

Watching the two girls burst out laughing even harder than before confused me. Raising a 'whats so funny?' eyebrow at Scar. I see her laughing as well.

"Am I missing out on something..?" I ask frustrated to no one in particular.

"Inside. *giggle* joke." Irei manages out then wipes her eyes with the back of her hand.

On an impulse I take out a tissue, grab her hand away from her eyes and tilt her chin up. Slowly wiping away the rest off. I smile at her mesmerized by her eyes, all I wanted to do was lean in and...

Hearing her barley audible gasp, I feel warmth spread down my cold hand making it tingle. I bring my other hand up to caress her cheek, pulling her closer with the one holding her hand. moving closer to her mouth my thumb brushes her bottom lip making it part as she inhaled.

I felt myself leaning in closer, a breath away from her lips, which I wanted so badly to just ravish right here and now.

I heard someone clear their throat breaking the spell of the and she hastily pulled away blushing.

Taken back by what I had almost done, I notice that I'm still holding her hand.

Wanting so badly to pull her closer.. I let go and stuff my hands into my pockets.

Looking embarrassed, disappointed, and shocked on my part, I look up.

Avoiding Christi and Scar's curious faces. I look at Irei.

"I'm sorry, I really don't know what got into me..., I'm usually not like this..." I whisper softly to her.

She looked me dead in the eyes and I saw many emotions cross her eyes but the strongest ones were confusion and longing. I know how she feels.

Scar's POV

Blinking back at what my brother just did a moment ago.

I stare at him curiously.

Watching as he apologized I noticed the he seemed shocked as well. And I swear if he could blush he'd be as red as a tomato.

Could she be his... She couldn't be ! Could she..? I mean come on! It's not fair he finds his before I do!!!

Smiling to myself I sent him a mind link grinning evilly.

*seems like you found your..*

*Please nows not the time Scar!!..* he cut me off

*Besides we can't..I'm mean I can't.. For Fucks sake I'm a vampire and she's a human!!..* he replied looking worried.

*Have you asked her if she was..you know..? She seems to fast reflexed for a human.. Plus have you seen her? She's gorgeous! But she's oblivious to all of it...She pushes people away but when she feels unthreatened she unconsciously pulls people in!*

*She might not know if she's not human..* He looked over at me slightly frowning.

"Ok! Awkward!..." Clapping my hands together I walk towards Irei and grab her and Christi's elbow pulling them forward.

Walking slowly behind us Gage was lost in thought. Using my time with Irei to break the awkwardness from the incident from before I tell them another embarrassing story of Gage's life making hem laugh again.

Fuming and staring daggers at my back I chuckled when he sent me a death threat.

* Don't expect to live long Scar..* he practically snarled at me.
