"Ichigo-chan! Wake up, my sleeping princess!" she opened her eyes, just enough to tell who was calling her those things. Even though she knew it was Kish.
"Yeah, I'm up." she yawned and curled up, further entangling herself in Kish's arms.
"Kitten, you have to wake up. Although you seem really at peace when you're asleep, it's time you ate something. You've slept through most of thee day. It's lunch time." he explained, beginning to place light, loving kisses upon her forehead.
"Uh, I'm not hungry!" she protested/lied. True, she wasn't hungry. For human food anyways. She needed blood, Kish's blood, to be exact. That's when it happened.
She found herself leaning into his shoulder. Her target being his neck. She could already smell his blood, pumping throughout his body. Supplying him with blessed life.
Oh, how she wished she could turn and go back to having that normal life. More than anything though, she wanted to live a normal life with Kish.
"Come on, you have to be hungry by NOW." he argued, pulling her off the bed with him as he stood. Now she leaned, her head by his neck, into Kish. Mostly all of her body could feel how warm he was. Feel his blood, pulsing and pumping through his body. She began to lean her head down, when she snapped out of her trance.
'No, I can't do that to Kish! He doesn't deserve that kind of life. We'll both be alright by the end of the week though. If I've lasted till then, without attacking him, then that means that my body can, safely, react to his blood. I won't have to drain him and take his life. We'll be able to live a happy, semi-normal, life. Once he's turned into my vampire mate we can live off each others blood. Only needing a small amount.' this thought, happy and cheerful, gave her new hope. New drive.
"What is it, kitten? You look like you're in a daze…. Come on, I'll get you some lunch, then you'll start to feel better." he stated, happily, pulling Ichigo by the wrist.
"Kish, can I ask you something?" she mumbled, staring at the floor.
"Sure, anything kitten. What's on your mind? Anything I can do?" he asked, stopping and turning to face his precious kitten.
"Well, in myth, there are such things as Vampires. In those myths, they say that vampires are atheist. Do you think that God would still help that person. I mean, a vampire who purposely wanted to change from a human." she asked innocently, remembering all the times after she'd been turned. She'd gone to church every Sunday and Wednesday, and prayed with all she had, that God would forgive her.
"Of course. I mean, if that person knew the Lord, and asked for His help, fully believing that He could change their lives for the better, to make them into Godfearing lives, then yeah. Why'd you want to know, kitty?"
"Well, I had this weird dream, I was in a church, at the alter. Then, suddenly, as I started to pray, I turned into what I thought was a vampire. All the other people in that church, those I believed to be my friends, they all ran from me. Cursing at me, throwing holy water at me. And, they called me a demon, I ran away crying, not going from the church however. I'd ran into the Sunday school section of the church. There, I'd balled up into a heap in the corner, and began to pray. Soon, I felt my features, they were changing back to normal. When I'd peered up, for a split second, I thought I saw an angel wink at me, before she disappeared." she really did believe in God. She knew, with all her heart, that God would bless her with the miracle of humanity, someday. But, when? After a week, she'd let loose on Kish's blood. She didn't want him doomed to that same fate. It was like walking down a long, damp, dark, scary tunnel. And, unless there was God's light, you wouldn't make it.
It HAD however answered her question. She now knew that Kish did believe that there was something higher, someone to pull you out.
So, if she absolutely HAD to turn Kish, at least she knew he wanted to have that better life, the one promised by God.
"That must have been really scary. But, God sent an angel to lift the curse. So, you were safe all along. It just goes to show, the people around you could abandon you just like that, but He'll still hold strong."
ALRIGHT! SORRY TO ALL YOU PEOPLE WHO DON'T REALLY LIKE THE WHOLE RELIGIOUS THING. BUT, I JUST FELT LIKE I HAD TO CLARIFY WHERE MY CHARACTERS STOOD. MOST STORIES I'VE SEEN, THEY SAY VAMPIRES ARE ATHEISTS. I JUST DIDN'T LIKE THAT TOO MUCH.
