A World Behind Walls (Tokio Hotel Story)

Chapter 18

Chapter 18

    When I woke up the next night, Tom was laying next to me, with his face close to mine, and looking right at me. His face looked the same way it did the last time I saw him, which was yesterday, but still his eyes were still there deep brown, but now that I looked closer there was a hint of red in them. It was dark in the room, and as if Tom could read my mind the candles in the room just seemed to at once light up all at once.

    “It’s getting dark in here.” Tom said in a gruff, just waking up voice.

    “So. I like the dark.” I told him. The candles again at once all just dimmed, leaving a nice small glow around the room. Tom put his face up to mine, letting our noses and foreheads touch.  He lifted his hand and gently traced my face. His eyes never leaving mine. His hand was gentle like a feather on my face like he didn’t want to break me.

    “I love you.” his voice was soft, like he was dreaming.

    “I love you too.” 

    “You said it again.  You really do love me don’t you?” he asked.

    “Forever and always.” I told him. Tom leaned forward and kissed me, it wasn’t gentle or sweet, it was rough and demanding. And I answered him back by, climbing on top of him, and kissing him back. His hands moved over my body, I felt for once since everything, loved.

    “Lori, do you think everything will end someday? Like Don, and this war that everyone is talking about.” That made me remember something.

    “TOM! Oh my god I forgot to tell you it’s Don. He did this!” Tom interrupted me.

    “Lori, what are you talking about? What about Don?”

    “He is the one behind the war! Remember he went to America? He is the once that has made the war.”  Tom’s eyes seemed to go from normal to wide in a second, I thought that they would pop out and role on the floor.

    “We have to tell my father about this, King Antonio, and Victor.” Tom grabbed my hand and pulled me out the door.  We passed by Bill and Candy on our way, they were just coming out of the room they were staying in, and followed us to King Antonio’s office.

    We knocked on the door five times until he answered with a, “Come in.”  We all poured into his office all talking at once.

    “All right all right, what is wrong! Lori what is it you wanted to tell me.” He looked at me with a smile and I imagined how he killed my family. But I held my tong and told him what I knew.

    “We know that Don is behind the war with the Americans. I have proof that he has done this.” Antonio’s eyes widened.

    “Are you sure? Absolutely sure that this is true? Because if your lying you will be killed about this.” He grabbed hold of my shoulders and shook me enough to get the point across.

    “I no that Father, but trust me, he has done this. We have to go to Victor about it now.”

    “Yes, your right we have to.”

    We all pilled up in the car, and drove to Victors castle. He wasn’t particularly happy that Tom was there but he wanted to know why we were all there.

    “We , well I have reason to believe that Don has something to do with the war that the Americans want on us.  I believe that he had knowledge that everything that was happening here and he planed this whole thing out.” Victor came over to me and put his hand on my neck. Feeling the puncture wounds.

    “He read your memories hasn’t he? Don I mean.” Victor felt the wounds again.

    “Look the only way I can make sure that you are telling the truth is to read your memories. But I wont do it the way that will hurt you. I want you to put your blood in a cup and then I will drink from it.” He handed me a cup and I did what he asked.  Then he slowly drank from it.

    His eyes seemed to roll in the back of his head. And his features seemed to grow old. But as fast as it happened, it was all gone. His eyes opened and he faced me. And the next thing I knew he was yelling.

    “Guards! Get me King Don Louis! I want him arrested for treason!” the guards all seemed to come out of nowhere at once.

    As Victor made his way back over to us. He grabbed my face and held it in his hands. “I’m sorry I ever doubted you, Lori. You remind me so much of my daughter Laviniean, she looked exactly like you do right now. Well just take out the blue in your hair and you got my daughter.”

    “What happened to her?” I asked him even though I already knew what happened to her.

    “I killed her, when I was turned into a vampire I went crazy for blood, and I went to see them all again, and I ended up killing  them all. When it was over, I realized that I was a monster and wanted to stop all this, forever, but that never happened. It wasn’t until a millennia later that I was crowned King of all vampires.” this was a different side of Victor that I  never seen before. He looked… vulnerable.

    I knew that the next day, Don would be arrested but they wouldn’t do anything to him because he was a king. And a powerful one at that. All it will do is go on his record and that will be all.

    Later that night Tom and I we sitting I his room, him sitting on the edge and me straddling his legs. We were now face to face with each other, and were breathing hard. He once again pushed his face against mine and kissed me again. I will never get over this, ever. I loved his so much now, more than my own life. Whatever life I have that is being dead.

    Tom’s hands ran up my body until he held my face in his. He pulled back and I didn’t open my eyes, afraid that this was all a dream once again. But when Tom’s lips met mine, I knew that it wasn’t.  Slowly he slipped his hands up my shirt taking it off in the process, his lips moved down my neck across my color bone.

    “Take your shirt off.” I moved my hands to his shirt but he was already there. He took it off and dropped it to the floor with my  shirt.

    “I love you Lori. I want you, I want you to be mine, forever. Be with me forever and ever.” It didn’t take long until our clothes were all on the floor in a pile. And he moved on top of me, my heart seemed like it was beating out of my chest, it felt like a hummingbird. My mind seemed to lift out of my head and into the sky, I was so happy at this moment, and nothing could stop us from being together this way.

    A couple hours later Tom and I were just falling asleep, when I had a feeling. And at this moment I remembered what Sonja had said to me. I wanted to tell Tom but how could I tell him when I didn’t know what it was? Would he be mad at me? Would he be happy? But most importantly what will happen when the war came to us vampires?
