Chapter 10: The basement

Chapter 10: The basement (yes I know... finally another name for the chapter :) )

ooooooo guys is Brianna falling for a vampire???? muahhaha ;) And sorry this chap is kinda long :/ oh well you'll get over it ;)

I just lay there in shock, slight pain, and happiness? Wait, what, that's not possible, pain and happiness at the same time? Awkward... But I liked this feeling. It made me feel better, not so lonely. That's all I've felt, lately. It seems like Kat and Riana didn't even care about me last night, no one did, except for Harry. But I didn't know if I could trust him. Could I? I was still debating on that.

Right before I was about to fall back asleep I heard Harry's voice.

“Anna,”

“Yeah?” I asked, but it was so quiet that I could barely hear myself. With vampire hearing, though, I'm sure he didn't miss it.

He sat up, and looked me straight in the eyes. I'd always hated when people did that, but this was ok.

“I'm sorry, again. I know I keep apologizing for everything, but its true, and you deserve every single apology I'd ever give you.”

“Harry, you don't have to apologize for anything. It wasn't your fault that you guys were hungry- I mean thirsty. But, stop apologizing. It's alright. Trust me.” He grinned a little.

“Ok. I just want you to know that.” I nodded.

“Alright. But, can I ask you something?” Why did I do this.

“Yeah, sure.”

“Ok. Well, why do you treat me different than the others? Like last night, for instance. You were the only one who didn't seem like they wanted to drink me. And your so nice. I don't understand. Tell me the truth, why is that?” He let out a small sigh.

“Because, I care about you. Why would I drink from someone so kind and caring, and beautiful like you? And-”

“You think I- I'm beautiful?” No one had ever told me that before. Beautiful had a very big meaning, and Harry had meant it truthfully, I hoped.

“Yes. Is that a bad thing?” He tilted his head to the side a little.

“No, no, no! Not at all. I just, no one's ever told me that before.”

“What? Never?” I shook my head.

“Nope. That's the truth.” It never bothered me, though.

“Well, you will hear it from me all the time.” He smiled, and I just smiled back, even though I probably looked like an idiot.

I sat up and wrapped my arms around him, hugging him. If I were his girlfriend, I'd probably kiss him. But I wasn't, so I couldn't do that. Wait, what was I saying!?! We were only friends, just friends.

All he did was hug me back. I tried pulling away, but he only held me tighter. This was the best I've ever felt since I left my home. I just assumed that he wasn't going to let me go, so I just stayed like that.

We actually sat like that for literally about 5 minutes. Finally he let go.

“Er, um, do you think we could go down stairs now?” I asked. I was hungry.

“Sure” he replied. “Carry or walk?”

“Whatever you want.” I just shook my head, laughing.

“Ok, fine. Carry!” I stretched out my arms and wrapped them around his neck so he could carry me. Being carried was fun.

“And off we go!”
