Misfits

Chapter 11

Peridot's Pov

"I asked, what did you think you were doing Lapis." I glared her down. After all the things I said to her, she still tries to pursue me.

I told her I can't, not until I meet my mate. If I don't find my mate here, then I'll give her a shot.

I shook my head, fatigue almost taking over me. It was so early, what was it, 2am??

Lapis stuttered, looking everywhere but me. She was still sitting on my bed!

"Why do you still try? I told you I won't give you a chance until I meet my mate okay?" I told her, giving her a pointed look.

She hung her head in shame, but I swore I saw a smirk in that face of hers. I sighed. What am I gonna do with her?

"I'm sorry Peridot, I just can' help it. The urges, they're very hard to control..." She said, her voice soft and like a whisper.

My eyes twitched. Urges?!

"What the fvck?! Are you lusting over me?!" I almost shouted at her while slowly inching away.

Her eyes widened. "N-No! You got it wrong Peridot, I'm not lusting over you! Well maybe not that much but-" She rants but I cut her off.

"Not that much?! You're still lusting over me even though it's not that much Lazuli!" I glared at her. I like her and all but this is too much.

"I-I'm sorry Peridot. I r-really am." She stuttered, rubbing her nape. She was blushing hard.

"Well, don't you ever do it again alright?" I said.

Sighing, I pinched the bridge of my nose and let out a huge puff of air. I shook my head, kind of disappointed at how Lapis was acting.

"You know what, fine. I'll give you a shot if I don't find my mate tomorrow okay? So please. Control those urges of yours and stop." I said, nudging her out of my bed and telling her to lay at her own.

She just nodded while smiling. Something's suspicious about her.

"And why the heck do you keep on smiling Lazuli?" I said, narrowing my eyes at her.

"It's nothing Peri, don't worry." She said. She just smiled even more and I just ignored her, laying down my own bed and trying to regain my energy by sleeping.

I frowned, not able to find myself drifting to sleep. What Lapis did, it kind of bothered me. That was a little too intimate.

I gulped, maybe I was too harsh on her... I mean, I know what she did was kinda wrong but, she didn't deserve to get yelled at. And why the heck is she smiling?

I turned around and looked at Lapis, she was laying down as well and looking up at the ceiling.

She was humming to herself, her lips pursing every once in a while. I sighed, ever since I met Lapis I kept on sighing, don't you think?

Guilt was eating me up, I really didn't mean to shout at her.

"Look Lapis um... I'm sorry about what I said earlier. I just got frustrated about it. So, maybe you can forgive me?" I whispered.

Good thing that vampires have great hearing. She smiled and turned towards me.

"It's alright. I know that you didn't mean some of those things you said anyways." She said. I smiled at her and she returned it.

I suddenly remember something.

"Hey, since its your birthday, I kinda got something for you." I said, getting up and going towards the closet.
