Chapter 24 - Any Time Baby

I woke up and groaned. This was the best sleep I had ever had in years! Turning around, I was met face to face with Logan. He was smiling down and place his hand on my cheek, stroking it with his thumb. 

"Rise and Shine sunshine!" He mumbled. I smiled up at him as my cheeks turned bright red. He just smirked. 

"Mariah smirking? That's something new." I playfully hit him. 

"Oh shush it!" I groaned. 

"How long did I sleep? An hour? Two?" He burst out laughing. I looked at him, confusion written on my face. 

"What?" I asked and he cuddled my against his very firm chest. Let's just say, I did not mind being in this position at all! 

"You've been asleep for three days." I almost fell out of bed but Logan caught me. 

"What? Why? What did you do to me, boy!" He just kept laughing. 

"Calm down, girl. It takes three days to change completely and it's very painful. So I just put you to sleep so you wouldn't feel anything. Now can I get my morning kiss? I've been waiting for it for three days now." I blushed. He had stayed here the whole time. How cute. I ran over to him and hugged him. 

"I'm sorry." I mumbled and he shook his head. 

"All is forgiven. Now, the kiss." He closed his eyes and leaned down. I stuck out my tong like a five year old and blew and he back up. I laughed and jumped off the bed, opening the door and ready to run out. 

"Hey, I'm a vampire now. Try and catch me." With one wink of the eye, I was off. Logan wasn't far behind. We were both laughing until I bumped into someone and fell on the floor. Damn, who ever it was, he sure was built. I saw that Logan had stopped running and was now looking at the person in front of me, which I hadn't gotten a good look at since I just fell. 

"I'm sorry." The guy said and extended out a hand. I reach out for it. 

"No, it was my fault-" I jumped up, now seeing who I had bumped into. He smiled at me. 

"Hello Mariah." His British accent was one I knew way to well. He opened up his arms and I ran into them. 

"Mason!" I yelled and he laughed. 

"Nice to see you, kiddo. It's been quite a while, hasn't it." I felt tears into my eyes. 

"It's been way to long! What are you doing her?" We had released each other, but I couldn't help smiling. 

"Two birdies called me and said my little brat of a sister had changed." I blushed and Adam and John came out. I ran over and hugged them. Yes, I know we have our ups and downs, but these three were the only ones that actually cared. Well that had been caring for a while. Now I knew I had more people caring. 

"Yeah, I'm a vampire now, curtsy of Maricel." Adam looked up, questioning what I had just said. 

"What do you-" He was cut off by Logan. 

"Ugh she just woke up. Still doesn't know." He glared at Adam and Adam shook his head. Something was up. And I was going to find out. Just not now, Mason was here and I wanted to talk to him. 

"So, kiddo, how have you been?" I smiled at him. Mason. 

"Well, this place doesn't serve good food and every guy hits on me here for some odd reason." I smirked, and in that moment Serena and Blake walked in. 

"Well I'm sorry you're so hot! But don't worry, I got the message and moved on." Blake joked and Serena looked at him, raising an eyebrow. 

"So I'm the rebound." Blake's eyes grew. Guess he didn't realize what he just said.
