James

Bind: 12

I wonder off into the woods alone. Victoria and I had split up too long ago. She's worried about Carson and I honestly could care less. This is hazardous because now he's getting close to my mate. I may have to actually like him. Or at least tolerate him, for her sake. I don't know what it is, but it seems somewhat unnatural. It doesn't make sense how it's only been about a week and they've become inseparable.

Carson doesn't trust anyone that easily, it took him years to even talk to Harrison. That's saying a lot. Maybe I'm over thinking it, but it's as if they have an internal connection. A bond of some kind. Nothing like the mate bond obviously, something similar that can be very powerful in one's relationship.

"You're always easiest to sneak up on when something's on your mind."

I glance up to see Harrison squatting up in a tree not far from me.

"You don't usually climb trees or get very angry unless something's weighing your heart."

Harrison sighs loudly and gradually jumps off the branch of the hundreds foot high tree about a step in front of my being. I shove my fingers in my pockets and take an uncomfortable seat on a lumpy rock. Harrison plops down beside me.

"I still miss her terribly. Every moment of everyday there has not been one time my mind is not filled with her. Hearing her nickname for me coming from Carson's lips..."

"I can't imagine what my life would be without Victoria. She's lucky, you know, Ceacilia. You've been loyal to her all this time." He chuckles.

"It's quite easy. I've tried other women, Carson..."

"Yeah, don't know what you were thinking there." Harrison rolls his eyes at me and punches my bicep.

"The point is, it's hard. Either they do the littlest things that remind me of her or are so wrong it makes me yearn for her more. I feel like I'm betraying her trust and love for me. I regret so much that I didn't promise her I'd move on and live a happy life for her if not with her. . .if only I had read her letter sooner. . ."

"Hey, we've talked about this. It wouldn't have made any difference."

"But, what if it did?" We'd be here together and truly happy. She's push me to expand my horizon." Harrison chuckles quietly, his eyes gazing at the moss of the trees in absence.

"She and Victoria would have a blast taunting us."

I smile as a memorable yet imaginative notion. I chuckle at the though of Civilians fists attitude. She and Victoria really would hit it off the second they realized just how much they get away with. If only Victoria would have been here sooner...no, I should have been searching for her until I dropped dead.

How could I even think that? The sight of her when my eyes first made contact with hers is still fresh in my mind. And it doesn't help the fact that she won't mention any if it. Why she was covered in blood. How do you bounce back from that? I'm so selfish thinking that. All that matters is that I have her now and she's safe in my arms.

"My little fire fly..."

I look up to see that the sun has set. I didn't realize we've been out that long. I look around to see that the sun has set. I suppose we've got lost in thought together, silently enjoying each others company. Just like we used to. Darkness has wrapped around the forest of trees. Our surroundings glowing. The magic awakening now the sun has resigned for his slumber.

The little fairies fly around, glowing bright. Like a lamp with fire. Harrison memorized by the sight and clouded with visions of the past. The past full of light, the light he's lost. His fire fly, Ceacilia. I watch as the fairies attract to me, another magic source. I smile and grab Harrison's arm as I sit up.

"Stop wallowing. Let's do what we would always do." He chuckles and rounds his shoulders.

"I suppose we are over due for another sight seeing expedition, supernatural style."

Even though she's gone from this earth, she still lives forever in our hearts.

I push my foot against the soft dirt of the ground. Soaring through the air and landing on a thick branch of a tree high in the clouds and far from the rocks we've previously occupied. I hitched up to get ready to jump to my next tree. Just as I am about to jump, Harrison wizzes by, his feet jumping off the branch I first landed on. I chuckle ad shake my head as I crouch down. Harrison is soaring through the air meters ahead of me. I set off through the branches of leaves.

I give my vampire more control. Now that the sun has set, I can let that side of me free. My wolf has had his fun, it's only fair I let my vampire free. Harrison is a few feet ahead of me now. My vampire eager for a chase with an old friend. I catch up to him easily in no time. He looks over at me with excitement in his eyes. A wide grin spreads across my face as my heart bursts from both the thrill of the run and spending time with this side of Harrison once again. This is the Harrison I know.
