So that awkward moment when your boyfriend sees you in your bra. So here it goes!

"Gregory!" I shouted as I hurried to pull my shirt back on.

"Arianna, I am so very sorry. I didn't think that you would be undressing. I just thought I would surprise you," Gregory said, pink tingeing his cheeks and the tips of his ears again.

"I love it when you blush. Did you know that?" I asked as I walked over to him. "You look so completely adorable. I like that I'm the only one who has the power to make it happen to."

"You do. Nobody else had made me blush in centuries," Gregory said, then quickly added, "Not that I'm that old or anything."

"I guess it's a good thing that I'm into older guys then isn't it?" I whispered, nipping on his neck slightly.

"A damn good thing," Gregory mumbled, his accent as thick and gruff as ever.

I giggled and pushed him onto his back on my bed. I straddled his lap and laid my head on his chest. We lay there in silence until I realized something. I could hear a slow, soft thud in this chest. Right where his heart should be.

"Gregory, do you have a heart beat?" I asked incredulously.

"I don't know. Do I?" Gregory asked and paused for a second. "Oh my God, I have a heart beat. I haven't had a heart beat in ages. At least I don't think I have. Oh my god, Arianna, you've made my heart start beating again. That's the reason I only blush around you. You make me feel like I'm human, so I start having human reactions to you. But I so have no clue what that means."

I smirked at how excited he was getting. He looked like a little kid with that twinkle in his eyes. He was so excited that he was practically bouncing on my bed. I put my hands on his shoulders to stop him and looked into his beautiful eyes.

"Gregory, I really don't want my mom or Bob to come in here because they think that I'm having sex with my vampire boyfriend that they have no idea about, so can you stop bouncing?" I said, giggling at his blush.

"But this is amazing. If I'm more human around you, then that means that there is less of a risk of me drinking your blood. Isn't that great?" Gregory asked.

I froze. I didn't think that it was problem with him to not drink my blood. I mean we've never really talked about it, but I just assumed he didn't think about it. I know realize that that was very naïve of me, he is a vampire, after all.

"You've thought about drinking my blood?" I asked quietly into his chest. To afraid to meet his eyes.

"Countless times, really. Is that a surprising thing to you?" Gregory seemed shocked. "I mean have you met me?"

"Yes, I just that I was different. Not just some meal that you were looking forward to having," I said forgetting my previous monologue and fighting off tears.

"Ari, it's not like that, I.." Gregory started.

I stood up and pointed to the door. "I think you should go back down stairs. Be quiet on the way," without looking at him I walked over to the corner of my room.

I waited until I heard the soft click of the door and dove into my awaiting bed and sobbed. Bad move on my part really, that bed smelled exactly like him. So I started crying harder.

Uh-oh, trouble in paradise once again. Reviews may get them back together!
