Lexi's POV

I had just kissed Demetry and I had no idea what I was supposed to do after that so I just held him. It felt a bit awkward but it felt nice at the same time. He ran his hand through my hair like he usually did. "Can I sleep here again?" I asked not moving. I didn't want to sleep here because I thought that I wouldn't be able to sleep if I didn't I did it because I wanted to sleep here, but he didn't have to know that.

"You're always welcome, you don't even have to ask at this point." He said pulling my chin up so that he could look me in the eyes. I looked down at his lips then back at him, I looked away and felt my cheeks getting a bit hotter. "It's late maybe we should sleep?" I asked wanting that moment to be over. "Yeah," he said smiling at me softly.

I went and laid down on the right side of his bed, my side. He laid down next to me, facing away from me, he usually did this to give me privacy, I guess. I turned facing him. "Demetry, turn around," I said lightly pulling his shoulder. He turned around and smiled at me. "Will you hold me?" I asked feeling embarrassed. His smile grew wider as he pulled me into his chest.

I snuggled closer to him and I started smiling too. It got a bit cold in the night so Demetry woke me up so that we could lay under the blanket. "I didn't want you to get a cold or something if vampires even got colds," Demetry said running his hand through his hair. I could see a faint blush on his cheeks. I just smiled as I got under the covers. This time he held me like he did that first night.

I woke up to the sunlight that started to creep in from the window. It was still very early, the sun just barely started to rise. I didn't move I just enjoyed being this close to Demetry. After several moments he started to move. "Morning," I could practically hear the smile in his voice and that made me smile. "Morning," I said turning a bit so I could see him and when I saw him my smile grew wider.

"How late is it?" he asked confused with how dimly lit the room was by the sun. "Around five, I think," I replied. "That's too early," he said putting his head back down on the pillow. He put his face very close to my neck and I jerked away. "That tickles!" I yelled. He smiled and pulled me back closer to him. This time he put his mouth very close to my neck and I froze. He just laughed at me and put his forehead in the crook of my neck instead.

We stayed like that for a couple of hours, neither of us falling back asleep we just laid there enjoying each other's company. Until Demetry's mother knocked on the door. "Demetry you awake?" she asked from the other side of the door while I jumped up. I looked out the window to see if anyone was around and jumped, I immediately closed my window and curtains before Demetry could even say yes.

"Yes," he said sounding a bit nervous. I listened in on their conversation standing next to my window. "Can I come in?" his mother asked. "Yes," he said then she walked into the room. I didn't know if she could see that someone was sleeping next to him. "I just want to ask you something," she said sounding a bit nervous. "Yes, mom," he said sounding a bit irritated now.

"That sweet girl, Lexi, is she your girlfriend?" she asked, I could hear his heart beating faster. "No, she isn't," he said sounding nervous, he probably knew that I would listen in. "Are you going to ask her out? She seems like a very nice girl." She said. "Mom... that isn't really any of your business." He said slowly. That wasn't a no. "Sorry, I was just curious. Do you like her?" She asked. "Mom!" He yelled. "Okay okay, I'm going." She said leaving the room.

I pulled my curtains open and I saw Demetry standing in his room, his face was practically beet red. I started laughing at him, he looked so cute. "So you heard all that?" He asked running his hand through his hair, which was cute too. "Yup," I said finally pulling myself together. "Do you want to come over and have breakfast with us?" I asked, I still had a wide smile on my face. He nodded and smiled back at me.

I showered and got dressed before going downstairs, this time I made sure I closed my window and curtains. Uncle Jack was busy making pancakes and Lilly was on the carpet playing with her dolls. I sat down at the table in the kitchen. "Eating with us again this morning?" Uncle Jack asked smiling. I nodded. "Is okay if Demetry joins us?" I asked a bit nervous, he has only heard of Demetry once.

He lifted an eyebrow. "Yes, but I have a feeling you already asked him." He said looking up at me. I looked down at my hands. "Maybe," I said, then Demetry knocked on the door. "I'll get it!" Lilly yelled as she ran to the door. I stood up and stood near the door. "Hello, who are you?" She asked. He bent down to be eye to eye with Lilly. "Who are you?" He asked booping her nose.

"Ahhhhh!" Lilly yelled and ran away. "He touched me! He touched me! Now I have GOOOTIES!!!" She yelled running in circles around the house. Everyone started laughing at her. She stopped and stared at us. Her nose was red from rubbing it. "I hate all of you!" She said pointing at us. I ran to her and picked her up. "I love you too sweet girl but come on its time to eat pancakes," I said putting her back down.

"Pancakes pancakes pancakes!" She said running to the table and sitting in her chair. I walked to Demetry who was still standing near the door. "I wouldn't mind some gooties," I said hugging him. He laughed at me and closed the door. We all sat at the table and started eating. Uncle Jack was happy that I was happy. Lilly was always happy, she talked to Demetry about her ponies and he played along. Demetry and I were just happy to be together.

Demetry learned all her ponies' names after she brought them to the table. She usually wasn't allowed to bring them to the table but Uncle Jack allowed it this time, and she knew he would. She is a sassy lady. She is a lot smarter than she looks. He was so sweet to Lilly and he was super polite to make sure he made a good impression on Uncle Jack. But I think Uncle Jack already liked him because he made me smile.
