I lay on the floor, door to my back as my heart pounded in my ears. What the hell was going on with me!? I just threw myself at a grown man! For him to turn around and throw himself at me. I hugged my knees tight to my chest. I could tell he regretted it shortly after. The look on his face said it all; he couldn't be interested in a child. And I couldn't be interested in him! He was probably old enough to be my father. I stray tear slipped down my face, I liked him there was no denying that. The way he made me feel was so different than just a crush. When we kissed, my whole body went into a frenzy of shocks. It's what snapped me out of my sleep walking, oh but the way he sucked on my bottom lip. I almost fell to pieces at his feet. My cheeks heated from the mere thought, no this isn't right. I stood up limping to the closes dresser; I would get dressed march down stars and tell him that it can't ever happen again.

Slowly creeping downstairs, I heard Lucas yelling

"LAST THING SHE NEEDS IS TO BE LATCHED ON TO ME!" I felt a pang of pain in my heart as he said it, I knew he regretted it but I didn't expect it to hurt so badly. Latched on to him? is that how he felt? like I was some leach sucking the blood from him? I felt anger rise in me as I finally got to the door way when his last words hit me like a ton of bricks

"Her family was killed by vampires the very thing-"

"What?!" I screamed in horror, my ears had to be deceiving me. The look of utter shock on their faces told me otherwise. It couldn't be possible! Vampires? Things that go bump in the night. I felt my knees go weak trying to catch myself, suddenly he was at my side supporting my weight. "This can't be real" I whispered breathless, I felt the panic began to rise in my chest. "I'm still dreaming, I dreamed that kiss in the kitchen and just never woke up. Yea that's it" I felt the panic attack subside as I looked at dream Lucas. He looked at me in confusion and worry. I felt a historical laugh slip my lips

"Its official, she's lost it." said Raven in utter shock and disbelief. I began to walk towards dream Raven.

"Wow" I poked his soft cheek taken aback by how real they felt "You're really handsome" he visibly paled looking between me and Lucas. I ran my fingers through his hair hearing and inhuman growl behind me be for my wrist was snatched from Raven hair. I looked up at Lucas blue eyes; it was obvious he was furious. But why? if this was dream? was he jealous? My attention turned back to Raven as he spoke

"Lucas please just relax, she must be in shock"

I could see him clench his jaw as he took a deep breath. His eyes softened

"I'm sorry for what I'm about to do " before I could ask him what he meant I felt a sting on my right cheek as my head snapped to the left. I placed my hand on my heated cheek in shock. Oh my God he struck me? It hurt like hell! That means I wasn't dreaming. OH GOD I WASN'T DREAMING!! I felt my legs fail before everything went black.

"That's impossible! We are not like those vicious mutts!"

"You very well know it isn't unheard of Lucas, what about Dante and his wife Elena?" I began to pace back and forth remembering the couple had once explained something about electricity when they would touch. At the time I had thought it was just talk of two sappy love birds. It couldn't be possible, soul mates. This pour girl has been through hell, I couldn't make her suffer anymore by sucking her into this world of mine. I refuse to cause her more pain. That is all this life brings. "YOU cannot fight this Lucas. If she is your destined life mate you need each other , you have already started the bounding. "

"I will not condemn her to this life Raven! LAST THING SHE NEEDS IS TO BE LATCHED ON TO ME! Her family was killed by vampires the very thing-"

"What!" Rose stood in the door way in utter shock. Shit how much had she heard? How could I have been so careless and not sensed her presents. Her knees buckled and I was quickly at her side. "This can't be real" she whispered, her face was ghost white. Her heart rate increased dramatically and she began to take sharp breaths. "I'm still dreaming, I dreamed that kiss in the kitchen and just never woke up. Yea that's it" I looked at her confused as her heart rate went back to normal, she suddenly began to laugh
