I took in a deep breath, trying to control my breathing because of how nervous I am. To be honest, it didn't make it any better knowing that he could possibly hear my heartbeat right now. As soon as the car became stationary, I opened the door and sprang to my feet, rushing towards the front door. Before I could reach it I felt a arm pull me back a few steps, preventing me from getting inside. I knew straight away who it was by the tattoo on their arm, Bruno. I closed my eyes and tried to concentrate on the girls talking so I could get my mind off of things. They didn't seem to notice that we were standing here, behind them.

Bruno: "calm down. Everything is going to be fine"

I turned around in his arms, looking at him in the eyes. I nodded my head once and lightly smiled.

Bruno: "if you want we can do this later?"

Me: "No!"

I interrupted him.

Me: "I'm ready now"

He looked at me for a split second longer then brought his wrist up to his mouth. I wasn't sure if time stopped or if he stopped moving. Suddenly his wrist dropped back down to his side, away from his mouth. He looked down, taking my hands in his.

Bruno: "look if... If anything happens or..."

Me: "everything will be ok. It will work then I won't have feelings for 'him' anymore"

I thought I was the only one that was scared about this. Bruno is normally the one who is usually calm all the time. I could tell he was nervous as he kept moving around and looking around everywhere.

Bruno: "alright. Just know that I love you. Forever and always"

I smiled at him as he said that, feeling warm inside. I knew that he truest means what he says. He let go of my hand and once again brought it up to his lips, actually piercing the skin this time. He twisted his arm so it was towards me. I could see the tick dark, red liquid start to dribble down onto the floor. He placed it closer to me and without having to think twice I tasted the red liquid. It tasted something far from nice. It was like I was licking a rusty iron nail or something coppery like a coin. It was the same as if you would lick a wound so it was stop making a mess everywhere. There was a part of me that was hoping and thinking that it would taste better, like a strawberry lolly pop or something nice and sweet. In fact it was the complete opposite. How much of this I had to have was unsure of. But then again Miles didn't give me much for me to start to develop feelings for him. But what if I take too much and it goes wrong? I quickly pulled away and whipped my mouth with the back of my hand. Without another word we both walked inside the house, both of us too scared to say anything.

As the night went on I started to feel tired, jet lagged. I nudged Bruno who was talking and laughing at what someone was saying next to him.

Me: "I'm going to bed. I'll see you later alright"

He gave me a worried look before he gave me a small smile.

Bruno: "are you feeling ok? Do you want me to come with you?"

I shook my head and stood up from the log that we were sitting on in front of the fire.

Me: "it's fine. You stay here"

I entered the house and walked to the bedroom we are currently staying in.
