AN; and here it is! enjoy and please review.
Claire was sleeping; Shane was besides her not touching her but still there.
Something was coming towards Claire, it came closer and it was Ian. She started to run but her feet took her nowhere. Ian grabbed her and pushed her down. She looked around and realised she was at the graveyard. Ian suddenly pulled out a knife and stabbed it in her.
Claire shot out a bed heaving a sob. She was crying and shaking. She looked around and Shane was there beside her, saying something.
"It's only a dream, its okay I'm here, you're here. You're safe." He'd been saying that every time she had a nightmare. This time though Claire sobbed harder, she felt so distant from Shane and now she really needed him. She'd been blocking everyone out and right now, she needed him to love her. She hoped that he still did.
Claire threw her arms around Shane and basked in his warm embrace.
"I've missed you so much Claire. I missed touching you"
"Do you still love me?" She asked in a soft raspy voice.
"I've never stopped" was his reply.
Shane ran his hands down Claire's arm meaning to cup her hands in his but he stopped at her wrist.
Shane reached over and switched the bedside lamp on. He looked down on the inside of Claire's wrist and gasped.
"Do you hate me?" Was the first thing Claire managed to say.
Shane didn't say anything; he just stared at her wrist and ran his fingers over the scars. It must have bought horrible memories of his mum dying Claire realised and felt a little guilt for making him remember his past.
Shane got up and left Claire. She didn't bother to follow, just sat and watched him leave her and a part of her left as well. She felt alone, completely alone and for the first time she thought about going, she thought that maybe there was no point in life because it hurt too much. Claire ran to her blade this time intent on leaving this world, now she felt there was no one on her side.
She sat on her bed and ran the blade across her wrist, she was half way through cutting her wrist open deeply when she heard her door slam open and Eve, Michael and Shane came running in.
Before she could even comprehend what was happening Michael had took the blade out of her hands with his vampire speed.
Shane and Eve came running over to Claire as well. Shane looked at the cut and saw that it was deep and bleeding badly.
"Eve get a cloth we need to clean away the blood and put pressure on it, it's deep." Shane then turned to Michael and said. "Michael we need to take her to the hospital, she'll need stitches"
Michael nodded and Eve came running back with a cloth and Shane wrapped it around Claire's wrist.
Claire caught up with the moment finally and she looked at Shane through tear-stained eyes and pulled her hand back harshly.
"No, I don't want to go. No! Go away! You hate me!" She said and sobbed. She couldn't help it, she felt like she was breaking.
"No, Claire I don't. I love you. Always" he said looking in her eyes. He took her wrist in her hand, wrapped the piece of cloth around it, and tied it tightly. Claire hissed at the pain. "Sorry" Shane mumbled.
"Why'd you leave?" she asked.
"I needed help, you needed help, I was getting help. You know we all love you"
"We do all love you Claire, and I'm not letting you become emo," Eve said. "You'll ruin my Goth style if you become emo."
That put a little smile on Claire's lips. And Eve ran over to Claire, pushed Shane aside and wrapped Claire in a big hug.
Claire laughed at Shane's shocked expression and Michael joined into the laughter.
"Haha, looks like Eve's stealing your girl," Michael said and laughed.
"Hey if Eve goes for Claire that means you lose your girl," Shane said then added "ha!"
Michael stopped laughing and glared at the laughing Shane.
He walked over to Claire and Eve and said, "I'm going to reclaim my girlfriend back from you now. Before she suffocates you to death."
Claire felt happy for the first time. She felt like everything was going back to normal.
Shane pulled Claire up and then wrapped his arms around her, he breathed out a sigh of relief into her hair and she relaxed into his chest.
"Come on we got to get you to the hospital" he said, and then suddenly the ground wasn't under her feet. Shane had lifted her bridal style. She gave out a little shriek and a giggle and he started walking down the stairs with her.
"Also after that I'm going to make you eat a whole box of pizza's because you literally way less then a feather" Shane said. He had a hint of worry and seriousness in his voice.
They reached the hospital and she got stitched up, she also had to see a shrink now. Claire was somewhat glad it was Dr Theo, he knew her and she knew him. Also, he was one of the few vamps she trusted.
She came home and she didn't waste anytime. She wanted Shane badly, all those weeks of ignoring him and blocking him out was too much, and she missed him. She realised that she truly missed him.
Claire threw her arms around Shane's neck and kissed him fiercely, he was shocked but after a while, he responded.
"Uh, take it to your room please" Michael said and cleared his throat.
"Yea, it's sort of gross watching your best friends having a full on make out session." Eve added in.
Claire didn't stop kissing Shane, she simply jumped up and wrapped her legs around his torso as he lifted her up and started to walk to the stairs. She bit his bottom lip lightly and then sucked it in her mouth. Shane let out a low growl and his arms tightened around her.
"We're leaving" Eve shouted.
Claire heard a bedroom door slam and she realised she was in Shane's room, she kissed him hard sucking and biting and pulled back. Shane's mouth moved forward to kiss her but she put two fingers on his lips and untangled her self from him. He let her go and stood dumbfounded. Claire pushed Shane's chest so he ended up sitting on the bed, she straddled his waist and pulled of his top, he lifted his arms making it easier for her. Claire threw the top to the ground and she pushed at Shane's chest so he was lying down on the bed.
Claire kissed along his neck and jaw and down to his chest. She ran her fingers lightly over his stomach. He groaned in response. His hands travelling up and down her waist.
"Wait" he said and groaned, he looked pained and Shane's eyes were dark and full of lust. "Claire are you sure you want this?"
"I'm sure, I'm so sorry for blocking you out."
"Claire I don't want you to do this because you feel the need to give something to me."
"I want this Shane, I really do. I need this, I need to know you love me"
"I do love you"
"Then show me"
