A vampire boyfriend?!

Chapter 8

"I am not!" I stared at him disapprovingly.

"Then why do you think i'm Dimitri?" He asked raising his eyebrows

"I.. It's.. OK.. Well.. Sorry" I gazed over at his chest briefly then looked down at my feet.

"Oh, I liked it, No need to be sorry" He said winking. I gave him a disapproving look and shook my head.

"I must be crazy if i can mistake you as Dimitri" I sighed and laid back on the bed.

"Your right, The only thing we have in common is we want you, And we're vampires" He leaned over me. I knew he wanted to finish what we started. Or i. "Alexa" He said kissing my cheek.

"I.. what..?" I said suddenly forgetting about Dimitri.

"Nothing.." He said staring up at the ceiling.

I sat up beside him gazing at the ceiling softly and leaned my head on his shoulder slowly he looked at me and i looked back at him.

"Elijah.. I may not love you like that.. But i care about you regardless" These words shocked him a little but it brought him into a clam,cool,caring self and i felt totally comfortable with him around now.

"And though you may not love me truly, I love you in every way possible and care about you more then you can imagine" He said running his hand over my hair as his other arm reached out around me waist softly, Barely touching my skin.

Elijah's POV:

My hand danced over her head softly,slowly, and delicately as my other arms snaked around her beautiful figure. I felt her twinge a little but other then her breathing she'd been totally still and quiet. Her sweet scent reminded me of Caroline and her long beautiful hair.. It was exactly like hers.. Soft.. Silky.. dark. I couldn't help but think that she loved me a little too, No matter how hard she says she doesn't.. i still hope.. Dream.. Wish.

"Elijah" She said slowly catching her breath i noticed she'd been trying hard to hold back.

I slowly moved my arm away from her waist and my hand away from her hair and felt a small pang of disappointment i'd known i'd feel.

"I'm sorry.." I sat placing a small kiss upon her forehead. Her skin as soft as silk and her voice as quiet and beautiful as that of an angel.

"Its okay.." She said nervously leaning away from me.

"You must be hungry" I said standing up quickly.

"Uh.. kinda" She said with a little bit of surprise.

I walked out of the room and prepared her a plate of food in minutes and was back in the room. I sat it by her on the bed and then sat on the other side of the bed.

"I hope you like it" I said smiling at her acknowledging the food. The way she sat there, The grace in her position and the careless way her hair flowed over her shoulders amazed me. I couldn't help but reach out and touch her again. She jumped back in surprise and looked at me awkwardly.

"What are you doing?" She shouted moving my hand from her shoulder. I couldn't blame her for that.. It was kind of a stupid idea.

"Nothing" I said taking my arm away from her quickly.

She sat in silence and ate her food then put the plate on the table beside the bed and stretched out on the bed laying in silence staring away from me. It kind of saddens me that i have to keep her here.. The longing for Dimitri is undeniably clear. I stared over at her breathless beauty and fell into a daze of my own. I was holding her and she didn't resist, She didn't even think twice about it or think about Dimitri when she wrapped her arms around her neck kissing me softly and whispering in my ear that she loves me. She just.. She wanted it. She wanted me.. She loved me truly.. I fell out of my daze when she stared over to me and placed a hand on my arm softly.

"Are you okay?" She said with concern in her voice.

"Fine.." I said laying back on the bed comfortably staring at the ceiling.

She put her hand on my shoulder softly as an angel and stared at my face with concern.

"I know somethings wrong" She said slowly.

"Nothings wrong!" I shot her a glare then stared back at the ceiling.

"Sorry.. I was only trying to help" She said in a soft angelic tone.

I couldn't help but stare at her for one more moment. Her beauty was as astounding as Carolines, Her beauty numbed the pain inside my heart from Carolines death. She's the only one so alike to Caroline, Shes the only one who makes me feel this way. Rather she loves me or Dimitri.. I will keep her here. I simply cannot risk loosing another beautiful girl such as Alexa is. I must keep her safe, I must keep her in my arms where we can live eternally together. Wrong or right it has to be this way.

"Your so much like Caroline" I said gazing over her body.

"How?" She stared at me contently.

"Your personality.. It's exactly like hers, Your angelic softness.. Your beautiful body.." I closed my eyes and thought of Caroline, How much fun we'd had.

"Tell me about her"

"Well.. I knew her before i was like this.. Vampire she was 18 years old.. very beautiful, I knew her during the 1800's. Our relationship was secret, When i turned vampire i never changed her, I never told her. She had the same beautiful personality, She cared for anyone regardless and she could be a bit feisty. I was planning to change her but the night i was planning.. She.. Vampires killed her. Vampires who hated me terribly they did it because of me. I set out to kill them but i never caught them.. I think one of them may be Dimitri" I went on and on.

"I.. I'm so sorry.. but.. Dimitri? Why do you think its him?" She said his name with surprise.

"I'm not sure.. I just well i think it was him because he didn't like me very well then, I turned him. And he didn't want to be one of us"  I said thoughtfully

"What? He does know you!! Why did he lie!" She yelled.

"He still doesn't like me, He's younger then me. He knows there's nothing he can do. And he wants to forget about me and the things i've done. He loved Caroline too, That is why he killed her. He knew she needn't be one of us, He knew my plans"

"Does that mean he's going to kill me?" She said a small tear dripping from her face. I wiped in away and smiled.

"I wouldn't let that happen, I was young too then, Now i'm much stronger and smarter"

Alexa's POV:

I couldn't help but feel a little sad for him. But the fact that Dimitri lied to me about knowing Elijah.. It hurt me a little. He knew him, In fact Elijah's his maker, Plus, Forgetting about Elijah, It seemed kind of pointless. And without Elijah now, Would i turn out like Caroline? Dead?

"Lets see..." I said getting up walking towards the table by the couch. "What's this?" I said picking up a thick book, It was made of cloth and it was just a bit dusty.

"Don't" Elijah said grabbing my hand back letting the book fall to the ground.

"What is it?" I asked curiously while he picked it up quickly.

"Nothing you need to see" He said placing it back on the table.

"Why?" I asked staring at him raising my eyebrows.

"Because i said so" He said forcefully.

I gave him a smirk and then walking over to the window pulling the curtains apart a little so i could see the bright sun.

"Don't" Elijah started squealing i shut it quickly and stepped away from the window.

A sudden, quick nosie startled me and Elijah jumped up quickly racing towards the door.

"Stay there" He said quietly.

He walked out the door and the noises kept coming. What's going on i wondered by the door turning the knob slowly.. What i saw frightened me even more then when Dimitri was on the ground and Elijah came to take me back.
