Laura's POV

Carmilla was on top of me as we made ourselves fit together as she took the lead. Our lips were practically sore at this point, and we were both close to the finishing point. We breathed intensely in and out of where we could, and after a few minutes, all was said and done, and she fell on the couch next to me.

Honestly, I couldn't ask for a better first and only intimate partner. She was gentle, but also understood what I wanted physically and what my body demanded. She took the lead to show me the ropes, and constantly asked me if I was okay. Golly gee, I hit the jackpot people.

She held me close as I laid my head on her chest. She played with my hair and kissed my head.

"I love you, sweetheart." She smiled into my hair.

"I love you, used to be grumpy vampire." I giggled as she laughed. "I can't believe I used to hate you...I never would've thought that you would turn out to be the love of my life and the first person I had and will ever have sex with."

She smiled. "Yeah. I thought that I would just hit on you and you would be another one of my study buddies...god, I was such a player. That's one of the many regrets I have on my infinite list of regrets."

"You were...I do admit though that hitting on me did work though cause here we are." We both laughed softly as she traced the inside of my hand. "I did hate your study buddies though and how you'd always hook up with them 90% of the time on my bed, hmph."

I made the joking cute angry face as she laughed and kissed my cheek. "Again, another one for the list of regrets, haha. But one thing I can say is I never loved any of them. That was just for fun, or you know what I told you previously, but you...you're so much more than that."

I looked at her, looking into her pure eyes.

"I never loved or even really liked any of them. And they weren't all that good either, honestly." She laughed as I got somewhat insecure but let out a little laugh. She brushed my hair out of my face. "When I recall our night together, I always think of it as the first time really hooking up with someone that I truly and deeply love. Because you're it for me, Laura. There's no one else."

I smiled, feeling comforted by her words. "I love you."

"I love you, sweetheart." She said as we continue to lay there together.

"Carm?"

"Yeah?"

"What are some of your regrets?"

She lightly laughed. "Where do I start? There's three hundred centuries worth of baggage."

"We have time for all three centuries." I smirked as she returned the smirk.

She sighed. "Honestly there's so many little things I could point out, but the biggest thing is that I didn't live. Especially as Countess Mircalla Karnstein, I was born into a heap of money. I could've traveled the world. Seen Paris, Italy, the states, the Bahamas, Mexico, and just all these beautiful places. I could've gotten married, had kids. Not that I'm complaining about having you as my fiancé, but now that I'm a vampire, an 18 year old girl who was killed at a dance, I can't have that dream or those dreams anymore. I'm just cursed to live and not actually live."

I was holding her cheek, resting her forehead against mine.

"I'm just so extremely grateful that I have you. It makes me think that that list doesn't even exist."

I kissed her softly and passionately.

"I am too, Carm. I am too."

I snuggled into her chest as she pulled me in close as we drifted off to sleep, comforted by each other's essence.
