CHAPTER 11

I am awoken the next morning to the sound of papers rustling. I look at the clock and see the time, its 6 AM on a Saturday. I'm going back to sleep. I roll over and realize I'm not in my bed. That's when I remember I'm in Daniels room. We made up last night. I look over and see him at his easel working on what seems to be a new drawing.

"Daniel what are you doing it's too early, come back to bed?" He gets up of the stool, walks over and sits on my side of the bed. He reaches up and moves a strand of hair away from my face.

"I'm sorry love, I couldn't sleep so I thought I'd draw you instead."

"You know that's kinda creepy."

"I can't help that I find you fascinating. Go back to sleep, I'll try to be quieter."

"Ok." I roll back over and close my eyes.

I finally get up at a more reasonable hour. I'm stretching as Daniel emerges from the bathroom fresh from a shower, wearing nothing but a towel. I could get used to this.

"Good morning." He walks over to me, and I smile up at him.

"Good morning." I sigh as he bends down towards me. He gives me a light kiss on the lips.

"Is this now a more reasonable time to be awake?"

"Yes. I'm most defiantly not a morning person." I look up and down his bare chest a spot one last water droplet run down his stomach and disappear beneath his towel.

"You better put some clothes on before I can't help myself, and do something well both regret."

"Hey, keep your hands to yourself, and be good." He walks back into the bathroom to change clothes.

"Then stop tempting me." I yell after him as he closes the door. I Get up and change clothes as well. I'm standing in front of the dresser mirror putting my hair in a messy braid when Daniel walks back out.

"Hey, can we not...tell the others about us, about my memories just yet. I want to stay in our bubble a little while longer. Please?"

"Sure," He wraps his arms around my hips and pulls me into him. "I kinda like having you all to myself. We Should head down to breakfast before it's all gone, because someone wanted to sleep in." I stick my tongue out at him.

"Well I'm sorry. It's Saturday and I wanted to sleep in."

"Fine let's go." He reaches for my hand and we leave the room together. Once we reach the main level, I pull my hand from his.

"Remember I don't want them to know. I'm going to go sit with Penn. You go sit with Cam and I will see you later."

"I love you." He calls after me.

"Shh..." I turn towards him, wink and head into the cafeteria. He is going to be the death of me I swear.

I go and grab some food and pull up a seat beside Penn and Todd.

"Hey, where were you last night? You never came down to dinner."

"I wasn't feeling very good so I stayed in and worked on my writing then went to sleep."

"Oh, well I hope you're feeling better."

"I am, I just need some sleep. I'm all good now." I look over a few tables and spot Daniel sitting with Cam and the rest of the gang. He looks up and spots me staring at him. He gives me a small smile and I shake my head at him to stop. Penn must notice because she pokes me in the ribs with her elbow.

"Did something happen between you two?" I scoff.

"No, we just talked for a few minutes and buried the hatchet. We are now friends... I guess... I don't know it doesn't matter. So, what did I miss while I was hauled up in my room last night?" I ask trying to change the subject.

"Not much, I was just doing some research for that project Miss. Sophia assigned to us."

"Oh crap, I forgot about that. I haven't even come up with a topic yet."

"Don't worry we can brainstorm later and come up with something. Which reminds me, can we go to the library this evening? I want to look something up but I want to do it when no one is around."

"Sure? But why when no one's around."

"So, I came across this book in the library the other day. It says it was written by a Daniel Grigori, and I was like there's no way it's our Daniel Grigori, but I looked in the back flap and there was a picture. Luce it looked just like him, but the book was written in 1860. I mean they could be related but the resemblance was uncanny they could be twins. I wanted to find out more."

"Uh, sure...yeah...Ok." This is not good, what am I going to do? I have to keep her from finding out about us. Right? I mean on one hand it would be nice to have someone to talk to about all this, but on the other hand what is she doesn't take it well and freaks out. Maybe I'll see what she finds and see how she reacts and go from there. Yeah, that will work, I hope.

We finish breakfast and I tell Penn I will meet her and Todd later to brainstorm before we go to the library, and walk out to the garden to do some writing in my journal. I'm just finishing up my recall of my last dream when Cam comes around the corner and sits in the chair opposite me. I close my journal quickly and put it back in my bag.

"What are you working on?"

"Oh, it's nothing just jotting down some ideas for a new song. What can I do for you?"

"I was wanting to know if I could take you out this evening?"

"You're asking me out on a date?" Is he kidding me?

"Yeah, so will you...go on a date with me?"

"Cam your nice and all but... I'm just not interested. I'm sorry." I get up from the table and grab my stuff to leave.

"It's him isn't it. It's always him..." He clinches his fist in frustration.

"My god Luce, if you only knew what would happen. He's not good for you. He will ruin you Luce."

"Who are you talking about?"

"Daniel...I'm talking about Daniel." Crap, I have to figure out how to defuse this situation and fast, he looks like he's going to explode.

"Cam... This has nothing to do with Daniel. I have barely even talked to him." I move towards him grab his hands in mine and hold them between us and look up into his eyes. "This is about me, every person I get close to ends up hurt or worse. I'm sorry I just can't." I turn to leave but he stops me. He grabs my face and kisses me.

"Choose me." He whispers when he finally stops. I push him away from me.

"Cam what the hell!"

Luce, I'm sorry...I shouldn't..."

"Damn right you shouldn't have. I told you no. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm leaving and if you know what's good for you, you'll stay away from me." With that I walk off in the direction of my room. I look up at the castle as I'm walking and spot Daniel looking down at me through the window. He shakes his head and turns and walks away. Great, he probably saw everything. Just another problem I have to deal with, and this morning was going so well.
