Love Bites (Completed)

Chapter 11

YURI

I woke to fuzzy vision. Everything was hazy like I was inside of a white cloud. I blinked as blurred movement caught my eye.

I looked into the face of dark beauty. Victor's angelic face slept soundly beside mine on my pillow. His silver hair fell over his face gracefully.

I felt the urge to brush his hair back.

He's so beautiful. Why couldn't things be different. Why couldn't we be different?

I sighed heavily and frowned. I wish things could have been different.

"Yuri what's wrong?" Victor murmured. Suprised I looked up to see his blue eyes peering at me through the silver curtain of his hair.

"Oh,good m-morning Victor." I smiled sheepishly brushing my hair back from my face.

He smirked and reached for me. His palm cupped my cheek. I closed my eyes and melted into the caress.

"Yuri." Victor whispered. I opened my eyes to see he was much closer than I had anticipated. His blue eyes watched me with worry.

"I'm fine." I forced a smile. He looked at me dubiously but didn't question me.

"How do you feel?" He asked wincing.

"I'm fine." I said honestly. I was confused by his question until I shifted to look at him better. I gasped as a crippling pain ripped through me.

"Ohmygod." I panted. Victor was immediatly hovering over me.

"Are you alright?" Worry was thick on his brow.

"Yes, I'm okay." I gasped laying back down.

Victor leaned over me. His bare chest pressed against mine as he brushed my hair back and brushed his lips against mine.

My heart pounded inside of my chest like a drum. I was overwhelmed with emotion as I cupped Victor's face and kissed him back.

"That's more like it." He grinned.
"Though you should probably rest today." He smiled apologetically.

"I can't. We need to speak with Yurio's familiar." I shook my head.

A sad look crossed his face and I frowned.

"Don't be sad. Can't we enjoy the time we have together?" I asked.

I chewed the inside of my cheek as Victor's face fell. We didn't have a lot of time together, and it was my fault.

"You must be famished. Let's get something to eat okay?" Victor smiled but it didn't reach his eyes.

I did it again. Dammit. Victor I wish there was something I could do to change this. Who we are and the paths we have to tread. I'm sorry I hurt you by falling in love with you.

I climbed out of our coccoon and gathered my clothes.

"Here take these. They are clean." Victor handed me a pile of fabric and I started to dress when Victor chuckled.

"Would you like to shower first?" He smiled. I nodded grateful and followed him to a set of double doors I hadn't really noticed.

Come to think of it I didn't notice very much about the room. Now that I looked around at the oldfahsioned room and the old European feel to it, I found it quite charming.

Victor stepped into the golden trimmed walk in shower and turned the water to a comfortable temperature for me. I eyed the clawfoot tub sitting center of the marble bathroom. It was beautiful and could clearly fit more than one person.
