Pure Blood

Chapter 34

~Avalon's Dress on Side~>~

I was sitting with Vicky and Lincoln, having a drink and taking a breather, I hadn't told anyone about Hunter and I breaking up, purely because I didn't want Archer to know, Hunter was right, I was scared to get hurt by him again, but I think I was more scared by how I already felt, I couldn't tell him here, with everyone here ? I'd tell him after, I'd pull him over in private and tell him then. Sounds like a plan.

Archer came over to our table with Dayton and Tyler.

"Hey guys, having fun ?" I laughed at Vicky's wiggling eyebrows.

"Yeah, I'm having a very fun time," Dayton glanced at Tyler with a sheepish smile.

"Avalon, care to dance ?" Archer offered me his hand, It took two seconds of thought before I took his hand and lead us to the dance floor, he put his arms around my waist tightly and I had my arms around his neck.

It’s dangerous to fall in love, but I
Wanna burn with you tonight
You hurt me
There’s two of us
We’re certain with desire
The pleasure's pain and fire, burning

"So why did you ask me to dance Archie ?" He had a smirk on his face.

So come on now
I’ll take you on
Take you on,
I ache for love, ache for us
Why don't you come, don't you come a little closer?

"Can't I ask a pretty lady to dance without having a motive ?" I raised a brow.

So come on now
Strike the match
Strike the match now
We're a perfect match
Perfect somehow
We were meant for one another
Come a little closer

"No, you always have your reasons Arch."

Flame and candle meet
Fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline
I’m burning alive

"Fine, I wanted to see you, you look beautiful tonight by the way," I looked down trying to hide my smile.

I can barely breathe
And you feel love for me
Fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline

"Archer..." I looked up into his eye, I was about to say something when he cut me off/

I got all I need
When you came back for me
Fire meet gasoline
I’m burning alive

"I know, you're with Hunter, I accept that, I just want you to be happy," I wanted to tell him, I wanted to tell him I wanted him, that I forgave him. But I stopped myself.

And I can barely breathe
And you're in love with me
Fire meet gasoline
Burn with me tonight

"Archer, you know I was happy," He gave me a small smile.

And we will rise
Like smoke darkening the sky
I'm Eve I wanna try
Take a bite

"I know, and then I made a dick move to make you forget, which I'll be paying for for the rest of my life."

So come on now
Strike the match
Strike the match now
We're a perfect match
Perfect somehow
We were meant for one another
Come a little closer

"I understand why you did it, I don't blame you for making me forget," I was trying to keep him from thinking in that direction.

Flame and candle meet
Fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline
I’m burning alive
