(A/N) Heres chapter 2! Please review!

Although he himself didn't know it yet, Marcus had became the ocean in my universe. He was the majority of what was my thoughts. Sure, there were other people in my life, but they were just countrys. Countrys built on a foundation stronger than brick, or cement. Like the land floated on the sea, the people floated on Marcus. My thoughts toward them began to stem from there relationship with him. At the moment that was what I was telling myself, that he held everything up and my life would collapse without him, but truthfully, Marcus is more like my air. Not only would my life fall without him but it would end. However, at the moment I was sticking with him as my ocean. I would not really confess how far in I was until I was sure he liked me too.

I found my patience was wearing away as I waited for Marcus to admit how he felt about me - a conversation that would either make me or break me.

After our evening meal, Marcus had invited me back to his room, and how could I say no when I was looking into his deep, sea-like eyes? My answer was barely a nod but he seemed fine with that. Just outside his door I managed to find my voice.

"Why did you bring me here Marcus?" I had purposefully made my voice soft and merely curious so he would not be offended by my question. It worked - my tone hid the anticipation raging inside of me, for this was what I needed to know.

"Because I love spending time with you. I love how your eyes sparkle whenever I tell you something new, I love the balloon of happiness you inflate. I feel lighter when I'm with you. I love you face, your voice, Didyme, I love you" My silent heart was beating. It must have been because there was no other rational explanation for why my head was spinning faster than healthy, my lips were smiling wider than ever, my body felt lighter than possible for a lump of granite. I felt human. If I could cry, I would be.

"I love you too, Marcus. But of course you knew that already, because you see... or feel... relationships, and well..." My nervous babbling was cut short when Marcus leaned closer and touched his lips to mine. He was kissing me. It felt so natural and so amazing and I didn't want it to stop. My impossible heart-beat picked up at his proximity. People stared but I barely saw. All I really knew was the knowledge of Marcus's lips on mine. The fascinating understanding of love. Millions of times I had heard the mortals play songs of such an emotion, and now, finally they all made sense. I had witnessed this feeling over and over and over, but now I was experiencing it.

Vampires live forever so time was never an issue before. Now I realized how precious each second was. After many of these precious seconds the kiss finished and reluctantly we came apart. It had left us both panting and emotionally drained. It had left us both wide awake and happily loved. As I stared into Marcus's eyes my earlier ocean theory came back to be. Because his eyes were so vital and present, there strong gaze could support the world. They were so deep and refreshing I felt as though I was swimming in them. They stood for everyhting he was and more. The good deeds of a Volturi leader, the hard times of a Volturi warrior, the love and affection of a Volturi vampire. They truly were the eyes of the Volturi.
