forbidden

7

Days passed, Vulcan tried his best to push his feelings aside. He focused on his music, spending hours practicing and composing new pieces. But no matter how much he tried to distract himself, his thoughts kept turning back to Alex.

He couldn't help but notice the way his heart fluttered whenever he saw Alex's name on his phone or received a message from him. He found himself daydreaming about their time together and replaying their conversations in his head.

Vulcan knew he needed to talk to someone about his feelings, but he was still too afraid to confide in anyone. He didn't want to risk losing his friendship with Alex or be judged by others.

But one day, as he was walking through the castle gardens, he saw Alex's familiar figure in the distance. His heart skipped a beat as he realized how much he missed him.

As Alex approached, Vulcan felt his cheeks flush with warmth. They greeted each other with a warm hug, and Vulcan couldn't help but notice how good it felt to be close to him again.

As they walked through the gardens, Alex began to tell Vulcan about his life outside the castle. He talked about his studies and his friends, and Vulcan listened intently, hanging on his every word.

But then, as they reached a quiet corner of the garden, Alex turned to Vulcan and asked, "Is everything okay? You seem a little distant lately."

Vulcan's heart raced as he realized that he couldn't keep his feelings hidden any longer. He took a deep breath and said, "There's something I need to tell you. I don't know how to say it, but...I think I might have feelings for you."

Alex's eyes widened in surprise, but he didn't pull away. Instead, he took Vulcan's hand and said, "I'm so glad you told me. I was actually hoping you might feel the same way."

Vulcan's heart leaped at Alex's words. He couldn't believe it. All this time, he had been harboring feelings for his best friend, and it turned out that Alex felt the same way.

As they continued to talk, Vulcan felt a sense of relief wash over him. He no longer had to keep his feelings hidden, and he finally had someone to confide in.

Over the next few weeks, Vulcan and Alex spent every moment together. Vulcan felt happier than he had in years, and he couldn't believe how natural it felt to be with Alex. They shared a deep connection that went beyond friendship, and Vulcan knew that he had found something truly special.

As they sat by the fire one evening, Alex took Vulcan's hand and said, "I know this might be scary, but I want to be with you. Will you be my boyfriend?"

Vulcan's heart swelled with happiness, and he knew without a doubt that this was what he wanted. He leaned in and kissed Alex, feeling a sense of warmth and completeness that he had never felt before.

As they pulled away, Vulcan knew that he had found his home. He had found someone who accepted him for who he was, and who loved him unconditionally. And he knew that, no matter what the future held, he would always have Alex by his side.

But it was still forbidden for a vampire and a human to be together. After a few years Alex would die an Vulcan would be alone again.
