Adrienne POV

Groggily I opened up my eyes, they flinched slightly by the bright shining sun. After stretching my eyes I sat up and started rubbing the sleep from my eyes, glancing in the corner Alec is looking at me with a strange look in his eyes, I smiled slightly before moving the covers from me and standing up, slowly I dared walking back to my room, I opened the door and sort of shuffled you could say to my closet before picking out some grey jean and a blue top, I showered before pulling them onto me and putting makeup on my face.

Quickly I checked up on my legs before walking back out from the room and bumping straight into Alec, "Master Aro said it is okay for me to take you outside, not further than the gates because it is sunny, but you are allowed outside."

"Let's go then," I pulled on his shirt sleeve.

"Don't you want breakfast?"

"Don't eat it, it makes me feel sick." He nodded before leading the way outside, I walked straight out but noticing he is hiding in the shadows caused me to falter in my tracks, I indicated my head for him to follow, grudgingly he stepped out from the shadows.

My breath caught in my throat, he glowed, or shimmered is a better term, millions of jewels encrusting on his flesh, sending rainbows everywhere, I noticed he isn't very happy about it so I turned from him and decided to lie on the ground. I know Alec is next to me because there is a comforting cool and colours reflecting on my closed eyelids, the sun caressing my skin.

A cold finger rubbed so invisibly against my hand that it could have been my imagination, I opened up one of my eyes, squinting at Alec, his eyes closed but a small smile on his lips, usually he doesn't have much emotion on his face, Jane on the other hand interacts with me more, more understanding of what I have been through.

My hand lifted and fluttered over his face, watching as the colours dance across my skin, pretty patterns forming and disappearing.

"Will my legs ever heal?" I asked out of nowhere, Alec opened his eyes facing me, he rolled over and rested his head on his hand, the sun disappeared behind a cluster of clouds.

"Not while you're human, if… no, when you get changed all of the imperfections your body has will disappear and heal making you perfect to any human," I scoffed.

"Imperfections my arse," he smiled wryly.

"Your legs are not the best, not the worst, part of who you are now; and your wrists, don't act like nothing is there I've seen them." I blushed deeply before pulling my hand back.

He grabbed it and pulled my sleeve down to reveal my wrists, he pulled it close to his nose and sighed deeply, "why would you do this to yourself?"

"It's one of my imperfections," I spat slightly, trying to tug my wrist back.

"No, the real reason."

"I had a bad phase, people were avoiding me and whispering, this led up to being burnt alive, I guess they were keeping a distance, I'm not the only person ever in history to do it."

His other hand moved and grabbed a strand of my hair, he moved his head and pulled the hair close to his nose, he inhaled and then growled deeply before rolling completely on top of me, his legs either side of me, one hand pinning my wrists above my head while the other secured on my waist. His nose ruffling my hair, down the side of my face and onto my neck, he stopped at my collar bone, breathing deeply, almost panting.

I gulped lightly, not knowing what to think of this, his nose moved from my neck across my jaw up until it touched the tip of my nose, he leant his forehead on mine breathing really heavily now.

This is just like one of those romantic movie moments, just life isn't a movie, it's more of a soap opera crossed with comedy.

Slowly I eased my hands up and pushed on his chest, I'm not really one for sappy moments, ewe, he moved away from me and over to the wall, he is panting heavily, but he seams slightly happy about it, what on earth?

I decided to support myself on my elbows and slowly start moving so I'm propped up.

He started walking back over to me, kneeling down and started playing with my hair, god that is annoying, I shook him off, he just picked it up again, I jerked my head back, he smirked and went for it again, "dare try it and I'll ask Aro to change me now so I can rip your head off."

Grinning he took my hair in his hand again; I screeched under my breath, the wind started picking up and whipping my hair about my face.

Quickly he dropped my hair and I relaxed, the wind took a while to calm, but it did, curious.

Automatically I stood up and stormed away from Alec and into the castle, I stormed all through the halls, my feet smacking against the ground, frown on my face, a silhouette passed me before double taking and reversing in front of me, Felix.

"'sup kiddo?"

"Alec," I growled deathly low.

He chuckled, picking me up, knowing it's no use to argue I rested my head on my hands while my elbows planted on his back, "where are you taking me?"

"Game room, it should cheer you up."

"Lovely," within the next couple of minutes we were in a big room full of arcade games and sport games. WOW.

I struggled against his grip and managed to worm myself out of it, I think he let me, my eyes glazed over as I thought about the possibilities of this room, yes and there is only one… fun.

Felix smirked at me before waving his hand to the rest of the room, I smiled a you-don't-know-what-you're-getting-yourself-into smile, he looked slightly scared when I ran over to air-hockey with a squeal, I indicated for him to go on the other side and started hitting the puck around.

I heard the door open and close but focussed on beating Felix because he is good, plus he has vamp senses, unfair.

Me being temporarily distracted Felix took one last hit, got it into my goal and won, jerk, I curled my lips up before turning and storming over to another game, he laughed as I did that, I stomped in front of my favourite arcade game looking longingly at dance step, but with my condition I don't think I'll be very good.

I turned away from the game and decided talking to Aro might be best, I walked through the door and down the hall to Aro's study, I can only hear one person in there so quietly I knocked.

"Come in child," Aro called through the door, I turned the knob and strolled in, standing before the desk, he indicated for me to sit down. "What can I do for you dearest Adrienne?"

"I was wondering what your plans for my future are?" he perked up at this, somewhat taken back.

"We are planning on changing you in a couple of years or when you are ready if it is sooner, why do you ask?"

"I wondered what my legs will be like."

He stood up and rounded the desk to stand in front of me, he knelt down to my level and looked me in the eyes, 'like a father would do to tell his baby girl her heart won't be broken forever and he'll kill the bastard that thought it was okay to do so' his eyes looked into mine, the red covered in milky film really intense.

"They will heal, better than ever before, not one imperfection."

"What is it with people and my imperfections today?" he took my hand and laughed lightly.

"I it nice to see you're settling in." I nodded and smiled slightly, "you may go now dear one, think over what I have told you and tell Alec that your imperfections are what make you perfect."

"Thank you Aro, you're very kind to me," I stood up, him following, I stood on my tippy toes and kissed his cheek lightly, "a fatherly figure," I mumble, I know he heard because his face lit up when I said it, I danced from the room and down the hall.

Dancing all of the way to my room, I passed Heidi on the way, she smirked at me before running off, once I was in my room I closed the door before rolling my trouser legs up and sitting on my bed with the pot of cream, quickly I unravelled the bandages, I wonder whether or not the doctor and his family went home yet, I think they have, maybe not, I'll have to see.

The bandages fell to the floor, my legs still pretty sore, I scooped some of the cream into my hand before it disappeared, I looked up shocked and found Alec with the cream in his fingers looking at it, how the hell did he get in here? I never heard the door open or close.

He eyed me with an evil, knowing grin, I tried to reach for the cream, he pulled it away, I am losing my patients fast, he seems to do that to me a lot.

He grabbed my hand and lifted it so I can't reach for the cream before putting the blob on my leg and gently rubbing it in, getting every part, all of the burnt parts of skin have fallen away now, just pink and redness with some loose skin.

He used his thumb to rub the cream in some of the more tender spots of my leg before moving onto the other and repeating the routine.

Once he was done he screwed the cap on the cream and put it on the table before grabbing out fresh bandages and wrapping them around my legs, once he was done with that he washed his hands and sat next to me.

"You didn't have to do that you know?" I asked while looking at him, my hair shielding my face.

"I know."

Alec POV

What overcame me in the garden today I have no idea but I need to set it straight with her, I stood waiting in the corner of her room while she danced in, a small smile on her face, she didn't notice me as she started work on her legs, seeing the sores on there impulse acted on its own accord and I was in front of her in an instant, cream in my hands before I started work on her legs, after bandaging them up and washing my hands I sat beside her.

"You didn't have to do that you know?" she asked me, but it sounded more like a statement.

"I know," god this girl is going to be the death of me, kindness, that is not what I do, I am the badass Witch Twin that vampires fear, not some pussy whipped glitter fairy caring for a human, I don't even know what came over me other day when I spoke to her about mine and Jane's past.

She looked at me, head tilted to the side, hair covering her bright blue eyes that reflect a sunny sky.

Quickly I stood and was out of the room, I don't want to go there.

Her blood is too god and I don't think Aro will like me killing his new pet, yeah that's the reason, not her safety, definitely because of Aro.
