Brighter Now

Chapter 21

Adira opened her door when she heard someone knocking it. She would've expected anyone but who was behind it.

"Godric," Adira said shocked. She thought that he would've leaved her alone for a while after their talk last night but instead he was standing in front of her, with chocolate. She still wasn't over her fight with her best friend and now Godric was in front of her, messing with her head even more.

"I brought you chocolate," Godric said, smiling at her cutely and Adira's heart skipped a beat.

"No flowers?" Adira asked him, crossing her arms.

"You don't like flowers. You think they are over rated," Godric said, cockily since he knew her so well.

"Thanks. Now you can go," Adira told him after she took the chocolate out of his hands.

Godric just wanted to take a hold of her hand and bring her close to his body. He wanted to hold her heart close to his and keep her in his arms. But he didn't do any of that because he knew that she would hit him with all of her strength and hurt herself.

"You look beautiful," Godric told her, looking at her in her blue flower dress with a black belt.

"Goodbye," Adira told him, narrowing her eyes and trying to shut the door between them but Godric but his hand to the door, preventing her from doing that.

"What do you want?" Adira sighted.

"You. I want you and I want to apologize," Godric admitted, taking a hold of her hand and put it on his unbeating heart.

"Come inside," Adira sighted when she noticed that her neighbors were starting to stare at them. Godric didn't let go of her hand, so she had to walk inside her house with her hand still under his on his chest.

Godric closed the door behind him. It was painful not to keep touching Adira everywhere and her dress wasn't helping things. Godric could see that she wasn't wearing a bra as she walked in front of him.

"Can I have my hand back?" Adira asked, looking at their hands.

"Not yet. I've missed your touch, my heart," Godric informed her.

"Why are you doing this?" Adira asked, letting a tear escape from her eye.

"Because I love you and I can't let you go," Godric told her.

"Well, it didn't look like that last night," Adira cried out, pulling her hand out of his.

"I know. I know. I should've fought for you but I thought you had moved on from me before I read your letter," Godric admitted, moving her hair behind her ear.

"Why would you think that?" Adira asked him, turning away from him to sit down to the couch.

"Getting my memories back—was strange. At the same time, it had only been few hours since I was in your arms and I remembered everything I put you through. It sounded like you were over me so I wanted to do the thing I wanted to do before I met you," Godric explained to the love of his life, in his knees in front of her.

"What are you talking about?" Adira asked, liking the feel of his hand on her bare knee.

"I was going to kill myself before we met, Adira" Godric admitted.

"Godric," Adira said, crying now.

"Y-you can't," she murmured.

"I won't don't worry," Godric promised, "even if you never forgive me. I won't as long as you live. I know it was selfish of me."

"I have lived for 2000 years but I have never loved anyone as I love you," Godric told her as he took a hold of her face between his hands, "so I need you to know that I would've never hurt you the way I did if I had remembered you."

"I know," Adira smiled sadly.

"I love you too," Adira said and leaned to give him a soft kiss to his lips.

"I'll learn your forgiveness if you give me a change, Adira," Godric told her, taking a hold of her hand and kissing her knuckles.

"Damn you, Godric," Adira murmured before pulling him from his knees to on top of her so she could kiss her vampire.

"It's not legal us to marry yet but if you give me your permission I'd like to bond with you," he told her.

"What's a bond?" Adira asked, taking a hold of his hair, behind his neck.

"A blood bond would link us so we would be able to feel each other's feelings. I'd be able to feel if you were on danger," Godric informed her, "I also hope that one day you'd marry me the vampire way."

"You want to marry me?" Adira asked shocked.

"Very much," He told her and Adira pulled him from his hair to kiss him.

"I'd love to bond with you and maybe one day I'll even marry you," Adira teased him and left out a laugh.

Godric kissed his future bonded with passion and took a hold of her legs to move her in her bedroom.

"Where are, you taking me?" Adira wondered aloud, taking her lips out of his for a minute.

"To make love to you and show you who you belonged to," Godric said, determined, "You've made me incredibly happy and I'm going to show it to you."

Adira nibbled his lips with her teeth as he walked inside her room with her in his arms. Godric closed the door behind them before throbbing her to a bed and attacking her body with his lips. Adira wanted desperately to touch him but he was keeping her hands captive in his.

"I love you," Adira moaned.

"I love you too, my heart."

"I'm glad it's finally over and I can have you in my arms again, even if you don't let me touch you yet," Adira joked.

"For us, Adira, this is only the beginning," Godric told her, biting her neck with his blunt teeth.
