Hayden's POV
“Excuse me?” I asked, stunned. “What the hell is wrong with you? Are you sure you’re alright?” I said, standing up and grabbing his face in between my hands to feel if he was warm or something. But all I felt was cold skin and the slight roughness of his face from shaving.
Damien touched my hand with his and gently pressed his face into it. I felt little butterflies bloom all over the place in my stomach once he did that but immediately but gently pried my hand way from his and took a step back. Eyeing him with a strange mixture of wonder and confusion.
Damien sighed and shook his head before running a hand through his hair, "Hayden, love, please just calm down and answer the question. Here, I'll answer the questions you asked me. There is nothing wrong with me and yes I'm sure I'm alright. There, now can you answer my question?" he said nervously. Hm. I had never heard him sound so nervous before. I guess the thing he had to tell me was making him nervous.
I groaned and was about to nod when something that he had said caught my attention, "Did you just call me 'love'?" I said curiously. Instantly, his cheeks turned a light shade of red and I smiled gently. He looks so cute when he blushes--NO!! I can NOT fall for him, even though I already have...No!! I can't think that way...ugh...I...GAH!! I screamed at myself inside right when I threw my hands up in the air.
Pain and embarrassment flashed through his eyes and he took a steps toward me, "I'm sorry. Do you not like that? I...I didn't mean to...it's just...oh Hayden, please just let me explain." He nearly begged and took my hands in his, staring me in the eyes as if trying to get me to understand. I swallowed and looked down at our hands then back up at him. "Fine." I said quietly and leaned against one of the desks.
Damien blew out a sigh of relief but then soon gave me a strange look right after I said, "No." He folded his arms, "What?" I sighed, "You asked me if I believed in vampires and my answer is no. I don't believe in them." Damien cocked his head to the side and stared off for a moment before asking, "Why not?"
I shrugged, "I just don't think it's possible for creatures that were once human have been bitten on the neck and changed into some sort of blood-sucking monster with super-human strength, speed and weird powers. I just don't believe it's possible for something like that to be created." I said bluntly.
Damien turned to look at me and watched me intently as if he were trying to figure something out that he couldn't quiet comprehend. Then, in two strides, he took my face in between my hands and slowly traced my lips with his thumb gently. I shivered when he leaned down to brush his lips against mine then pressed them together with a gentle motion that made me feel weak and vulnerable in his arms. I opened my mouth just in time for him to push his tongue through it and meet with mine. A soft moan escaped from me and I closed my eyes half-way and took in the intoxicating taste of Damien when he pulled his lips away so he could stare into my eyes.
"You taste so sweet and innocent." He whispered as he leaned down to press our lips together again but with a little more force. Though, the kiss was still just as sweet but it had a little more hunger to it than the first. A gentle and husky groan came from him just as a little moan of my own came after.
One of his hands slowly slid down from my cheek and as it went further, it gently stopped at my waist as he pulled me closer to him. I wrapped arms around his neck and pulled him closer to me but was soon pulled away with his other hand. He pulled our lips apart again and I let out a little whimper of disappointment. Damien chuckled gently and whispered against my lips, "What makes you think we're done?"
I felt a little giddy and surprised when he bent down to press his cool lips against my neck and started to kiss it gently. I let out another soft moan and would have wrapped my legs around his waist but he had stopped me by using his hand and keeping my legs down. I soon felt his hot breath against my ear and shivered when he whispered seductively, "Don't. Just relax and let me do all the work." I nodded and moaned again when his lips touched my neck and slid down so they were touching my shoulder.
I suppressed another shiver when he used his cool hand to brush the exposed skin on my shoulder and gently kiss it before reaching back up to nibble on my neck. Suddenly, I was surrounded by a strong, white hot flash of pleasure and let out a cry just as I grasped onto his shoulders for support. I moaned into his neck and nearly couldn't stop moaning because of the amazing pleasure that was running through my body. The only thing I could think about at that moment was Damien's strong arms around me and his cool, red lips kissing my neck. Or rather, nibbling on it.
Soon enough, after the flash of white hot pleasure faded away, I began to breathe heavily and could not stop shaking from the after shock. I closed my eyes once I felt his lips part from my neck and him wrapping his arms around me in a gentle and loving embrace.
I let out a gentle whimper when he started to nibble on my earlobe and then brought his lips down from the side of my neck to my cheek. "Open your eyes." He whispered huskily next to me. I did as I was told and opened them only to realize that we weren't in the classroom anymore. In fact, I had no idea where we were at. It looked like we were in some sort of large room that looked like it was inside a mansion or something (plus it looked very rich) and a beautiful ocean view. Though, none of that seemed to matter because once I opened my eyes and saw we weren't in the classroom anymore, I instantly freaked out.
I jerked away from Damien and quickly looked around me. The bedroom had a large, wooden queen bed with what looked like black silk sheets and blood-red pillows along with some bookshelves, a television on the other side of the room, a desk and two other doors. I noticed that one of the doors led into a very expensive looking bathroom and the other door held what seemed to be like a gigantic closet. The walls were painted a black color with strange but beautiful designs on it that looked like symbols and swirls. They seemed to go all over the walls and the carpet was pure white and very clean.
I threw a hand to my heart and tried to calm myself down by breathing slowly. It didn't help. I was starting to get dizzy and nauseous and would have collapsed to the ground if Damien hadn't came up behind me and wrapped his arms around me to keep me steady, "Shh. Hayden, calm down. It's alright." He whispered gently into my ear. I tried to pull away from him but it didn't work. His grip was like steel. So I yelled instead.
"Get off of me!! Get off!!! Where the HELL am I?!!! What's going on?!! Where are we?!! Get OFF you...you creep..." I said woozily as the room began to tilt in all directions. At that moment I felt like I was going to lose it and was dying. But I knew I was only panicking and swallowing to much air and was about to pass out.
So, I embraced it. Nothing wrong with a little darkness now and then.
But wow did I feel like a complete idiot.
