Brooklyn~ 

"Sweetheart!?" Tristan's voice rings throughout the house. 

"Here!" I yell, of course, from the kitchen where I'm enjoying coffee.. yum. 

"We need to talk, now." Tristan comes into the kitchen, Emma too! This was something that was really important, plus Tristan's tone too. 

"Hey.. Em..." I say, confused. "I thought you were with Leah hunting... as you call it." I raise my brow, putting my mug in the sink. 

"That's the thing we need to talk about..." Emma looks at Tristan. 

I frown, looking at the both of them. "What's happened?" 

They're silent before Tristan touches my arm in a smooth gesture. "Leah's been... ah..." 

"What?" I say in a annoyed tone now. "What's going on!? Someone tell me!" 

"Leah's killed someone." Emma spits out. 

I widen my eyes, shocked. "She what!?" I scream. 

Tristan looks at her. "Very settle Emma..." 

"What? That's the perfect start." 

"Where's Leah?" I ask, concerned. 

Emma sighs. "The story is.." 

"The story isn't a freaking story at all." Tristan says. "The fact, is that Leah was taken by the vampire council as she killed someone, it's against our treaty with the government here, yes.. they know we exist." He says. 

"What are they going to do with her!?" I gasp. 

"Interrogate her, might not kill her." Emma sighs sadly. 

"They will kill her!?" I freak out even more. 

"Okay, that's enough Emma, go outside." 

"But--" 

"Out." He growls at her.

She runs out and Tristan faces me, and I sigh. "What's going to happen to her? She's just turned into a vampire!" 

"I know, and they wont kill her if they find that out... when they find it out. Leah's going to be fine, if you want, me and Em will go to the council to check up on her." 

"What about me?" 

"I wont let you come to a crowd of vampires, no matter what the treaty says, they're still vampires." He says strictly. "The council aren't made off kind vampires." He adds. 

"Then you better just go see her, and please tell her that I'm sorry." I says sadly, sitting on the counter. 

"Sorry for what?" He touches my arm. 

"For the stupid argument we had, just before..." I say, looking up at him. 

Tristan nods and pulls me to his side. "That's not going to be the thing she's worried about sweetheart, I'll go over to her soon, in the morning." 

"But... vampires sleep in the morning." I frown. 

"Not where they're situated, it's going to be dark there for sure, the council don't sleep often, they don't have too." 

I nod and then look around me.. "I wish I'd just talked to Leah about the whole thing, I was selfish and stupid." 

"My girlfriend isn't stupid." He kisses my temple. 

"Sure, you'd say that." I huff. 

He laughs and pulls me into a even tighter grip. "Believe me, you're not selfish, or stupid. You're just human." 

"Is that a insult?" 

"Not at all Brook, not a insult but a fact." He says. 

"A interesting fact, which should change." I sigh deeply and look into his eyes. 

He groans, letting me go. "I told you, I'm not into turning your life around if you're not into it, I'll love you, human or not." 

"But what If I am not against it?" I ask softly. 

He shakes his head. "We're not going to talk about this until you think on that." 

I groan, stopping him from walking away. "Come on Tristan." I say, annoyed. "I've been thinking on it for two days without a break." 

"We have something great, no need to rush this along!" He says. 

"We've been dating for about 4 months Tristan." I say. 

"Oh, and that calls for changing to a vampire?" He narrows his eyes. 

I sigh. "Why are you fighting me on this?" 

"Because I've never turned a human to a vampire." He spits out. "I could screw up, and I'd loose you." 

"I have a lot of trust in you." I say, walking over closer to him. "I've made up my mind Tristan." 

He shakes his head at me. And looks outside the window, Emma was standing there, kicking around the grass, all bored I bet... 

"If you're serious about this Love," He pulls me back again. "Then Emma's turning you." 

"Tristan.." I say with a smile. "You don't feel like turning me?" I wink. 

"Oh god woman, why do you have to do that?" He smiles a bit. 

"It's fun how you seem to always react." 

"Really?" In a heat beat I'm up against the wall. 

"Maybe?" I bite my lip. 

"What kind of reaction are you searching for hmm?" He kisses my neck softly. 

"More than kisses?" 

He chuckles. "Your not going to take that back?" 

"Why would I?" I wink. 

He picks me up and put me on the counter. "You're seriously a risk." 

I giggle and his hands hold tightly onto my hips. 

"AHHHH! Okay... I'm leaving." Emma says. 

We jump away from each other and Emma grins, "I see why I had to go outside now, good thinking." 

Tristan growls in his throat and I grin, jumping off the counter, and go over to whisper in his ear. "Later." 

Tristan lets me go and I walk over to Emma. "We've talked about some stuff, you and Tristan will go to check on Leah, after that.... We need to talk about something." 

"Of course." Emma smiles and looks at Tristan. "Come on horny vampire, we need to flash.." 

"Ey!!" Tristan shouts. "Stop it!" 

Emma chuckles and walks out of the door like a diva. I laugh and turn to Tristan, he was groaning as he puts on his coat, he stops by me and gives me a longing kiss. 

"You're in for it when I get back." He growls. 

"Not until tomorrow." I joke. 

"Yeah, yeah.. not if I can help it." He says. 

I laugh as he walks out with Emma and I shake my head, Leah better be alright... my smile falls... "She cant die." I say to myself.
