Moving On - A Morganville Vampires Fanfiction

Chapter Two

The moment we reached Claire's bedroom, I slammed the door behind us and with a mischievous grin, pinned Claire against the wall. I gazed down at her, into her eyes, her gorgeous chocolate-brown eyes, which sparkled with lust. I'm sure that the lust was mirrored in my own eyes. I wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her close and her fingers desperately knotted into my hair. Our lips pressed together and the kiss was passionate, it just felt right. Claire and I, were meant to be together. Soulmates. If someone had told me that a few years ago, I would have laughed but now, nobody could deny that we belonged together. I lightly planted kisses all along her collarbone and skillfully, unbuttoned her shirt. God, I loved her. I needed her. I needed her now and with a smile, I guided us towards the bed.

A/N: Use your imagination, guys :P

Half an hour later, I lay on the bed, gasping for air. I stole a glance at Claire, who lay next to me.

"Wow", I chuckled, running my fingers through my hair.

Claire giggled. "You know, it's getting late. We should go to sleep...".

I propped myself up on my elbows, staring down at her.

"Aww...but we were having so much fun, jailbait".

I playfully lunged for her but she rolled over and pretended to be asleep.

"Damn", I muttered. She could be such a tease.

Sighing, I opened my arms as an invitation, which Claire gladly accepted. I watched as she nestled herself

against my body. Claire had once told me, she felt safe sleeping with me but, the truth was that, I felt safe with her. The night-time was always the worst. The darkness played on my mind and made me see things, which I wanted to forget. Sometimes, I swore I heard Alyssa's screams as the house burned around her. I shuddered and attempted to push the thought to the back of my mind but, matter how hard I tried, it was there. With a sigh, I leaned over Claire's sleeping body, switched off the lamp and the room was plunged into

darkness.
