All Red {Xavier Thorpe X Reader}

Freedom

Xavier's POV

When the blood started to rain and the students started screaming and running it hit me what she had done.

Principal Weems appeared to say that everything was fine and that it wasn't real blood and she was going to check what happened, releasing the students from classes for the day.

I preferred to let Y/n deal with it for a moment and went to our room to take a shower, when I came out already dressed she was standing in front of the window covered in blood touching the marks she caused earlier.

- He's gone... - She whispered looking at me with her (reader's eye color) eyes, she looked in shock - He's finally gone. It's like a weight has been lifted from my chest, and at the same time as if a knife has been stuck in me. - she said as she walked towards me with a sad look - I'm going to take a shower, I'll be right back, Xav. - she said walking past me and into the bathroom.

- Oh, okay... - I said, seeing her like that broke my heart, but I didn't know exactly what to do to help, so I laid down on my bed and started to think.

I realized that her father was right and wrong after all, he was right that the mortality of the race of Y/n came as a consequence of love, and he was wrong to say that she doesn't love me, he was blinded by greed.

While she took a long shower I thought about the weird dreams about the monster and random places coming back, maybe I should tell her, because she told me about her nightmares, but maybe she doesn't want to talk, I realized she prefers to be alone when she's sad.

Y/n came out of the bathroom dressed in another pj and laid down next to me hugging me and putting her head close to my heart while I stroked her hair with one hand and her arm with the other.

- You want to talk? - I asked quietly.

- I want to know what happened when everyone saw the blood fall... - she said in a calm but sad tone.

- Well everyone started screaming and running around until Weems came and said it wasn't real blood and would check what happened, then dismissed everyone from classes. I think she called the Sheriff to check it out, do you think they'll find out it was you? - I asked in a worried tone.

- F/n had my blood running through his veins and my blood is not registered in any system, they won't know... - Y/n said and sighed tiredly and I kept quiet - Xavier... - she called looking into my eyes and I put my hand on her face, stroking her cheek - Aren't you... afraid of me, or what I am?

- Definitely not, I love what and who you are, and you did what you had to do. - I said and she laid her head back on my chest.

- I buried him next to D/n, even though he didn't deserve it, I loved him... Perhaps that way I can overcome the loss of both. - she said in a sleepy voice and I continued stroking her hair.

- You're free now... My princess. - I whispered not sure she heard as her breathing got heavy and she fell asleep, "Maybe I can distract her later by taking her to see the finished portrait, I really hope she likes it."

When I realized that she wouldn't wake up easily, I made her comfortable in bed and went to the art studio, I drew the entrance of the Gates mansion that was part of some of the dreams I had been having.

Around lunch time I went back to our room and on the way I noticed that they had already cleaned up all the blood and the old wooden tables of the quad had been replaced.

Entering the room I saw Y/n sitting on the bed reading a book, probably fantasy, while playing "Dog Days Are Over - Florence And The Machine", she tapped her fingers on the cover of the book in rhythm with the music, apparently she was multifunctional.

When she saw me she dropped the book on the bed and ran to me, hugging me, I picked her up, and sat on the bed while she smelled my neck causing me a certain shiver.

- You look better... - I said and she leaned her forehead against mine and I noticed that her eyes remained (reader's eye color).

- I'm finally free... My love. - Y/n said and gave a half smile, I knew she was still affected, I smiled and tucked her hair behind her ear.

Suddenly Y/n looked confused, she got up and started looking for some clothes in the wardrobe, she grabbed some black colored clothing and walked into the bathroom as I watched confused.

- Y/n? Is everything okay? - I asked aloud still sitting on the bed.

- Yes, love. - she replied and then walked out of the bathroom, looking beautiful as ever - Does black suit me?

- Any color would suit you, my princess. - I said smiling - Now you're gonna tell me what you're going to do?

- What are we going to do. I can smell food, the real thing, I want to test this. C'mon. - she said and I was surprised, she came to me and extended her hand, I took it and we went to the quad.

Y/n sat down at one of the new tables and I went to get lunch (just imagine a good school lunch) arriving at the table she looked almost in despair making me laugh, she took the plate and took a fearful bite and widened her eyes.

- Is this good? - I asked while eating too.

- Human food can really be good, I can't believe it's been almost a millennium without ever tasting all those flavors! - she said while eating a little fast and I laughed.

- Can't wait to see you try pizza... - I said and immediately an idea popped into my mind - Here, prove it again. - I said handing her the can of dr pepper that was in my sweatshirt pocket.

She took the can and opened it taking a sip, her eyes widened again and I smiled watching her as if she were a child drinking soda for the first time.

- Drinks can be even better than the food... - she said and laughed and all I could think about was how I would like to see her laugh like that forever.
