Chapter 1

Nicholas

Ugh. When will this be over? I'm sitting in my room waiting for Lucy, but why can't all the whispering stop?

I hate hiding stuff from Lucy. And to protect her I have to...long story. I hear a car pull up to the house. Yes! Lucy's here. I race down the stairs barely noticing the stares my brothers give me. I don't care what they think.

I open the door for Lucy with a smile on my face. She gives a small smile back. She's been acting...standoffish. I

don't know why but I know she has a lot of human stuff going on so it's okay.

"Hi Lucky." I say.

"Hi Nicky." she says. God, she's so gorgeous. She's going to let her brown hair grow out so now it's a little past her

shoulders. She also has amazing brown eyes that melt me. She wears a little make-up but not much. I wrap my arms

around her. She wraps hers around me. I pull back a little so I can look at her lips then kiss them. Her lips are

hesitant, then she pulls away...Did I do something wrong? As I'm about to ask her Solange comes over and smiles at

Lucy. My Lucy. Well...technically she was her Lucy first...but she wasn't dating her. I am.

"Hi Sol." Lucy says.

"Hi." I didn't know you were coming over." Solange says.

"Nick asked me to." Lucy said. Solange nodded like this made perfect sense.

"Well have fun you two" She said. Then smiled and walked away. It was hard for Solange to be around Lucy's human scent.

But for me it was easy now because...because... I Love Her. And that's why I wanted her to come over tonight. Because I'm going

to tell her .Wow, I'm scared. As if reading my thoughts Lucy says:

"So, why did you want me to come over?"

"Let's just hang out some. I missed you." I said. Okay...I'm to chickenshit to tell her yet.

"Okay." she says as I lead her to my room. It's not like were going to ...do anything. I mean we never even have yet. I'm still a virgin.

Kind of hard to get girls when your a vampire and are in love with your little sisters best friend. You know? But Lucy...There's no way she's a virgin. I mean she's had tons of boyfriends and let's face it, she's hot. Also I think I remember her implying that she wasn't a few years ago. I open my bedroom door and walk in behind her. She sees the new picture I put in here. It's of her, a couple weeks ago. Its dark out and she's smiling a perfect half moon with two dimples in her cheeks. The wind is blowing her hair and her scarf back. When I printed out that picture I saw how absolutely beautiful she was and I realized how much I loved her and that I would do anything to stay with her. She traces her finger around the picture. I step up behind her and wrap my arms around her stomach and I kiss the side of her flawless neck. When she rolled her head back and gave a little moan I thought, maybe...maybe we should take our relationship to the next level. A much more intense level. I mean, only if she wants to. She turns around in my arms and wraps her arms around my neck. She slid her hands into my hair. I kissed her.

The Kiss started slow but built so it was more intense then anything we'd ever done. Her breath huffed into my mouth. It was amazing. I lifted her up and she wrapped her legs around my waist. Oh hell, that was awesome. I barely noted that Logan and Solange were still home. At this moment it was just

Lucy. I walked toward the bed with her still wrapped around me and I nudged her down onto the pillows. I kissed from her ear to her shirt line, then back up again.

"Are you sure you want to do this Lucky?" I asked as she pulled my shirt off over my head.

"Yes. Are you?" She said as she ran a hand from my chest to the waist of my jeans, then she stopped and looked at me.

"Yes, I'm sure" I said voice hoarse. She smiled and unbuttoned my jeans. I pulled her shirt up off over her head, and then undid her button on her jeans. Like she

did to me. She smiled and then slid off her jeans, so I did the same. We kissed some more. Then we get under the covers and shed the rest of our clothing. Then right before we joined together as one I whispered in Lucy's ear,

"I Love You, Lucky."

She looked up at me through her full lashes and blinked slowly.

"I-I Love you too, Nicky." She said. This seemed to suprise her as much as it surprised me. I smiled at her and she smiled back. Then we joined our hips together.

Chapter 2

I awoke with a start. I felt around my bed. Where was Lucy? She probably already woke up and was somewhere around the house doing something. I didn't expect her to watch me all day. I jumped out of bed and pulled on dark faded jeans and a black t-shirt. Lucy's favorite. I walked downstairs in search for Lucy. I found her in the library curled up on a chair reading a book. She looked up at me and smiled. I smiled back and walked toward her. She put her book down when I got to her. I leaned down and put my hands on either side of her. Then, she wrapped her arms around my neck and our lips met. I put my hands on her hips, lifted her up and then I sat down and put her on my lap. We kissed until I realized something.

"Where is everyone?" I asked her.

"Everywhere." She smiled. I smirked.

"So what are we doing today?" I asked Lucy.

"I don't know. What do you want to do?" She asked.

"Hmmmm. How about we go to dinner tonight, and today we just…..chill with each other?" I said.

"Okay, sounds good." She said. Then she wrapped herself around me. I put my hand on the small of her back and pulled her in. Then she pulled away.

"Are you okay?" I asked. She kind of smiled and shook her head. "What's wrong Lucky?" I asked her.

"Nothing." She said. But she got up and brought her coffee mug into the kitchen. I was confused. What did I do? I followed her into the kitchen. She had her back to me. I reached out and put my hand on her back, but she shied away. What was wrong?

"Lucky?" I asked.

"Don't call me that anymore Nicholas". She said. What? Why didn't she call me Nicky? Why can't I call her Lucky?

"Why not?" I asked

"Because…I think we need to break-up" she whispered. My. Heart. Stopped. No!

"No!," I said "I don't want to break up. Please don't do this."

"I have to go" Lucy said. She walked into the living room. I followed after her.

"Look I don't know where this is coming from but I don't want you to leave and I definitely don't want to break-up." I said. She didn't say anything as she grabbed her coat and put on her shoes. I gently grabbed her arm and spun her around.

She stared at me. There were tears in her eyes. She didn't really want to do this, so why was she?
