Hannibal: Your Mine

Chapter 16: My Love

{ If your heart said yes,
And your mind said no,
Who would you listen too? }

Ivy's POV

After Hannibal's speedy recovery, He had announced a dinner party to celebrate his new lease on life. I was to be his special guest, as I did help in the saving of his life, along with Jack. But before then, I had some things to discuss with Will Graham. All the evidence points to Will sending this guy after Hannibal. I couldn't hide it anymore, I really did have feelings for him.

As I made my way down into the dungeon, which was the Baltimore Hospital For The Criminally Insane. Chilton was particularly chatty today.
"So, have you heard the news of Able Gideon?"

"Gideon?! Is he here?!?"

"He was.....A few people threw him over the railings and he broke his back. He is currently in hospital"
I felt as if I was in shock, truly I did. Gideon was one of my first psychopaths to question.
"Oh my god......"

"In anyway, are you going to Hannibal's 'party' tonight?"

"Well I kinda have too. I am the guest of honour"

"Oh I see....Well then, enjoy your talk"
At first I had no clue what Chilton was on, until I realised I was right outside the private meeting room. I quickly stomped into the room. I was even going to sit next to, or even in front of Will.
"So, you actually came? "

"What the fuck,What were you think?!"

"I thought I was going to kill the Cheasapeak Ripper"

"The Cheasapeak Ripper!You are an actual Idiot!Hannibal is not The Ripper"
Will looked at me for a moment.
"You're in love aren't you?"
I had the look of guilt on my face. I couldn't hide it right now.
"Will, I don't know how I feel!"

"You're in love."

"You're the one who tried to kill Hannibal!"
We were so loud. Chilton came in and drag me out. He lead me to the door, and told me to control myself. I really couldn't believe what I had just done.

Later On

I was so nervous, just standing outside Hannibal's house gave me the shivers. I just stood there outside thinking I could just run now and say I caught something, but it was too late, I had pushed the button. A woman dressed in a whit tuxedo lead me to the main area, where Hannibal was dress to the nines.
"Ivy! Welcome"

"Hello Hannibal"

"You look gorgeous, come with me. I must show you off"
Hannibal lead me by the hand. I couldn't help but feel like I was the guest of honour. I was in a way, but the way he made me feel was just so.....Good. Of course as the night progress some drink got involved, but no more than 6 glass of Champagne. Jack joined the party quite late and also left quite early too. The party continued on until nearly 1am. But everyone had left and all the was left was me and Hannibal. I found myself sitting on his table, while he was tidying up a few things in front.
"Hannibal?"

"Yes, Ivy?"

"What is your aim with me?"

"Aim! I mearly want a friendship with you...."
By now he had stopped what he was doing and was heading toward me. He stopped once he was at a distance. His eyes locked with mine. His soft Hazel eyes.....
"Why do you ask?" He continued. He began to get closer, and I hopped off the table and got to my feet.
"Well In that case, what if I said I had to go?"

"I'd say what does your heart say?"

"Well in that case it says you should come closer...."
With that, he did. I too moved closer and placed my hand on his chest. His heart was so calm, it wasn't racing like mine.
"I thought you were confused, Ivy?"

"If I was confused, would I do this..."
I lifted my head to meet his lips. I kissed him with a passion. Hannibal was the one to brake the kiss.
"In that case, follow me"
He picked me up and I swung my legs around his waist. He walked me up to his room. We quickly began to undress and after that the night dissolved around us, into a flurry of joyful groans and sweaty bodies.

Hannibal's POV

After our long hours, Ivy soon drifted off to sleep on my chest. The night was so peaceful and so was she. She was snuggled up on my chest, her hand over my heart. I didn't want to leave her but I had to. I finally had what I wanted...I moved her over to the side as I slipped into the night, knowing that when she woke up, she was mine....
