Demon Host

CHAPTER TWO- part two

When he grinned, that toothy grin of his that melts my insides completely, I lost it. Without thinking, I lunch at him and pull my arms around him. Squeezing him to me like it's the first time I'd seen him in years.

He chuckles, hugging me back equally. But I pulled away and palmed his face between my hands and attacked his lips like a hungry savage.

My lips connected urgently with his own and I kissed him. It wasn't soft and slow, no. It was hungry and passionate and he didn't hesitate to kiss me back just as equally.

His lips tasted like coffee, a taste I'd gotten very used to, a taste I'd missed so much but sadly this moment didn't last because my brain might have blocked the feeling of his freezing hands around me and icy lips being flamed by mine, but my body wouldn't forget it, it hurt and that made me pull back with a bit too much force that had Damon staggering back a bit.

He looked at me with confusion in is eyes as i struggled to calm my breaths. "what's wrong? "

"N-nothing I just, feel a bit dizzy. "

He took my hand in his to lead me into his apartment but I immediately retracted and walked in on my own.

The place was plain, other than the few tattered boxes of pizza on the table and a shirt hanging of the armrest of his black couch, there was no other evidence that someone actually lived here. The walls just like the outside was painted a light shade of faded green and a few white stripes.

"You haven't been here long have you? " I asked.

"A month and three weeks " he said moving to take out the littered pizza boxes "sorry about that. I didn't know you were coming."

I smiled, honestly I didn't care about his disorderliness, trust me, Damon is a huge definition of disorderly, I was just really happy to see him.

"Are you okay? "he asked with genuine concern in his eyes, sitting beside me and searching my face for any signs of fatigue. "I'm sorry I couldn't make it last night. My car... "

I chuckled cutting him off "I know you got pulled over Dame, I asked you not to come ".

"And let you go crazy wishing to be with me? Hell no. " he smirked.

Ah... There he was... I almost thought I'd lost my cocky boyfriend. My grin was so wide it nearly split my face in two.

"And besides, " he sucked in a breath "I fucking missed you. "

"I'm sorry "

"You have nothing to be sorry about" he grabbed my hand in a comforting gesture, the friction caused me to jerk away so fast but that little touch was enough for him to catch on to, "you're burning up " he palmed my face this time causing me to hiss out loud due to the freezing of his hands. "I'm taking you to a hospital."

He was up on his feet in a second, grabbing for his car keys. "it's fine Dame, I'm fine I promise "

"Is that why you don't want me to touch you? "

I nodded my head in agreement but the deep crease between his brows wouldn't disappear "has it been like this since you woke up? " I nodded again. "this is bad love you have to see a doctor."

"Damon I'm fine "I sigh, getting on my feet to match his height. Only he's still at least two feet taller than me. "All I want right now is to be with you, can you do that for me? "

He still doesn't look convinced but he gives in either way, "I'll get you some milk " he said, disappearing into the joint wall of the small kitchen.

"So, RBU huh? "

We were both lying on Damon's middle sized bed on our backs, looking up at the ceiling and making small talk about the things that have been happening in his life since I was gone.
