Chapter 34
**********************************
When we got home i sighed happily. I wanted nothing more than to escape Benjamin's annoying questions. I wanted to curl up in my bed and sleep until i felt the sun rise on my skin. I looked to Lexi as the carriage slowed to a stop. I spoke to her in fast polish and she tilted her head in such a way the curls fell off her shoulder. She shrugged to me and looked to Danny then back at me. I knew what that meant. Lexi was taking him to her room. I would be left with Benjamin and i really didn't want to answer anymore questions. 'I may kill him' I spat in thick polish. Lexi laughed to this and shook her head. 'You'd best not. I think he has a real eye for you' she replied in the same tone. I rolled my eyes again and jumped from the carriage. I did not wait for his hand. I do not need help. The only man i need is Godric. I should not let myself get attached to this human. All the same i felt Benjamin's human grasp on my hand. I felt my temper rise. I didn't want to be touched. I wanted Godric. I wanted to sit and scream this like a spoiled child. I want MY Godric. I breathed hard and walked to my room. Benjamin was silent, could he tell my mood? As we walked into my room i kicked off my shoes and pulled the clips from my hair and walked to the bed throwing myself on it with a sigh. Benjamin edged nearer and sat on the end of the bed. 'Are you ok love?' His soft accent asked me. Now i felt horrible. He was so nice. We had a nice day and here i take a swing a ruin it. I looked to his soft features. 'I am. Just sleepy' I smiled weakly. I felt his hands climb up my back to my shoulders, his thumbs dug into my blades and i groaned happily. Benjamin rubbed my back for a good hour, when i thought his fingers must be sore i smiled to him and pulled him beside me. I know he could not protect me...but he was lovely. He cared about me! I know so did Godric, but where was he? He cared so much but here i was in bed with a human? I felt his lips on my neck. I shivered to this i turned to look at him. He wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my lips, i returned the kiss softly and felt his eagerness in the next kiss. I bit my lip and pulled away. His eyes were wide and pleading. 'What? Have i done something wrong?' He asked. I wanted to bite him...I shook my head. I let him pull my clothes off while i tried to stop the thoughts of what it would be like to sink my teeth into his soft human skin and let his blood fill up my scenes...When i snapped out of my mind wandering i looked to him as he kissed down my chest. I shoved him back on the bed and leaned over him. 'I want to bite you' I mumbled. He seemed to know and tilted his neck slightly giving me full roam of his neck. I kissed the spot on his neck and felt him relax before i sank my teeth into his neck. His body tensed then relaxed again, i felt his arms wrap around me pulling me close to his neck, i let the blood fill up my mouth i groaned to this and drank hungrily. I looked to him and broke off from his neck. He pushed his lips back to mine and we spent the rest of the night in the company of each other.
Sun did rise on my skin and i did smile. I rolled over and the smell of dry blood hit me like a ton of bricks. I did not open my eyes in fear of the mangled body i would see. 'Benjamin' I whispered my voice shaky and full of fear. It seemed to be silent for much too long. 'Morning my love' I heard not 3 inches away from me. My eyes flinched open and i noticed the bite on his neck first. I gasped to this 'I'm so sorry' I mumbled. he grinned and pulling on top of him. 'It was entirely my pleasure', 'Yes but look at the horrible mark on your neck! What ever will people think?' He kissed my head 'I will wash it and you can make up on it and it will be fine, do not worry so.' I smiled slightly. 'Evie. what are you ?' he asked looking to me. I knew my eyes must be red and i sighed knowing i couldn't escape it. 'Immortal.' I mumbled. 'Yes, but what kind.' he asked again. 'Vampire...' I breathed. He smiled 'I knew you were special, Ive never met another girl that looks like you. your eyes, hair and body.' I just stared at him and realized thats why he asked so many questions. 'Are you not afraid?' I asked. 'I was. But your just hard shelled.' that week, we never left the bedroom. We had food ordered to the room and open the window midday.
The door knocked and swung open Lexi walked in and i sat up pulling the sheets to my chest 'Who died?!' I asked. She laughed 'No one? you've been in bed all week?' her grin told me she knew and i shrugged. 'anyways what do you want?' She leaned on the doorway 'Danny is taking me to Dinner and he thought you and Benjamin would want to come too?' She twirled her hair around her fingertips. Benjamin sat up beside me then and i knew i would blush if i could. 'Yeah! We would love to!' I narrowed my eyes to him. I'm glad he now speaks for both of us. 'Come on love, it will be nice i promise.' I didn't WANT to go, but i rolled out of bed and walked to the bathroom slamming the door. I got a bath and walked out again lifting a dress. 'Don't be in a bad mood!' He yelled at me. I glared at him 'Don't yell at me!' I snarled.I pulled my dress on and fixed my hair in silence. I walked to the mirror and lifted the make up throwing it at him. 'Fix your neck' I spat and walked to the door. He sighed and started to do his neck but failed. I walked to his and took the make up from him, sitting next to him i covered the marks. 'Love, I'm sorry...I just hate seeing you without a smile' I shrugged to this. 'I don't like people making their mind up and speaking for me.' I stood up and he stood behind me taking my hand. We walked to the dinning room sitting next to Lexi and Danny already with a glass of Gin. 'Your late Benny' Danny chuckled. 'Sorry' he smirked back. 'Are you ready to do this?'He asked I looked to Lexi and she looked as clueless as i felt. Benjamin and Danny both went into their pockets and got down on one knee. The held out a box and flicked it open, both boxes held matching rings. 'Evie. Will you marry me?' I herd Danny echo this to Lexi and i looked to Lexi with panic stricken face.
