"You can stop now" I was currently glaring at Lovella who was rolling around on the ground cackling at my latest observation.

Perhaps it was not one of the smartest things I have ever said, but it had all made complete sense when I saw the two fang marks on my neck.

Nobodies teeth were that pointy, I mean I know he was extremely muscly and insanely attractive but you don't develop fans along with muscles.

Lovella had finally shut up and was now looking at my shoulder with a look of worry, this in turn worried me.

"Does it really look that bad?" I asked Lovella my hands on top of my head, my eyes squeezed close.

"Yes it does" Just this one time I wished she hadn't been honest, that she had lied because an hour later I had gone to the Bathroom mirror ten times.

Each time I had gone the bite mark seemed to get worse, Lovella had assured me that it looked just as bad as it did when I had come home. I had thanked her for her words of support.

All through the evening my mind had been on Ajax and his words. As freaked out as I was I still wanted him.

NO. I would not. I didn't even know him. But I knew that he had a beautiful laugh and when he was stressed he ran his fingers through his hair. He took his coffee black and he growled more words than he spoke.

I lay in bed looking to the ceiling, I could hear Lovella snoring which made me smile but did nothing to distract me from my wondering mind.

All I could see was Ajax.

His smile, his frown, his anger, his sadness.

The sadness was the one thing that had been really weighing on my mind. Upsetting him felt wrong, not normal. It was as if I was going against my very nature which made no sense.

I looked at my bedside clock and saw that it was now midnight, I knew there was no chance of me getting to sleep now.

I lifted up my covers and trudged into the kitchen my eyes half closed because of the shocking bright lights.

I managed to bump into a table and wall on the way there but I finally made it to the place I needed to be.

The freezer.

I pulled out a tub of my favourite ice cream, chocolate, and switched on the TV.

I had no intrest in watching any of the late shows in fear of what my poor innocent eyes may fall victim too, so instead I chose an old movie, Ever After.

I looked at Drew Barrymore as she struggled with day to day life because of her evil family members and I sighed.

I was acting like a brat, my world wasn't ending, nothing bad was happening to me. The only thing that had happened was a really attractive guy had bitten me.

I heard a shuffling near the doorway and looked up to find Lovella looking at me suspiciously through sleepy eyes.

I patted the area next to me and she came and sat down, legs crossed underneath her.

When she realised what movie was actually playing her eyes lit up and she pulled a cushion onto her lap and gazed at the screen.

"So I've been thinking...." I trailed off unsure of how to say the next words.

"Are you kicking me out, if this about the bite thing I was laughing with you not at you." She pleaded with me, her eyes wide and hands clasped together.

"What, no." I told her reassuringly. I smiled as I watched her sigh in relief but then I remembered her laughing comment and I elbowed her ribs.

"With you" she reminded me, "so you were thinking" she urged me and I groaned finally admitting what I had been thinking about for a few hours.

"I should call Ajax."

Lovella gawked at me, her eyes comically large and her lips in an oval.

"Listen, he may just have really sharp incisors and Lovella how can I give him up. If I don't take this chance I will regret it forever. I can't explain it, him taking me out was like he was choosing me, for him, for life. I practically stalked him for weeks."

Lovella's eyebrows rose at this and I felt my cheeks heat from admitting such a humiliating truth, despite this I continued on.

"I get nervous every time I'm around him, not the bad nervous but the good type where it is almost like excitement."

A large smile appeared upon Lovella's lips as I sad this and she leaned forward slightly waiting for what else I was going to say.

"I know almost everything about him, like the way he hardly smiles but when he does it's beautiful. When he's frustrated he will run his hands through his hair and mess up the perfectly placed wavy locks but he will somehow manage to look even sexier than before. I know what he does when he's angry and even when he's uh.. arou-sed."

I went bright red after the last statement and Lovella spat out the ice cream she was eating into her hands making me grimace in disgust.

She grabbed a wet wipe and cleaned herself up. She stared and instead of mentioning the latter of my speech like I thought she handed me the phone, got up, and went to bed.

I stared at the rectangular object in my hand and plucked up the courage to call the man who had been my only thought this evening.

I was grateful for Lovella leaving as I could never have done this with an audience.

I dialed his number and waited, after the eighth ring it went to voicemail and I felt my heart break at the thought of him avoiding me.

The beep sounded and I managed to get one word out before turning it off.

"Ajax"

"Yes"
