Chapter eleven
Katie's POV
I was having an amazing time at the museum with Brandon. I never thought I would hear myself say I was enjoying something with Brandon around. But I was. I was actually having loads of fun and I was joking around and he eventually lightened up and joined in. It was fantastic. We then stumbled across an exhibit about Egyptians. I was instantly drawn to some symbols. They were so intricate and complicated that it amazed me as well as intrigued. Brandon came up next to me and he explained some of the symbols to me. He was really intelligent. Why had I never noticed it before? I was astounded by how much he knew, I guess all those years of being a vamp has its advantages.
I looked at Brandon and he looked at me. I didn't know what happened but I suddenly kissed him and he kissed back. It started getting a little bit heated and the next thing I knew I was up against an bare wall with my legs wrapped around his waist. The kiss went on like that for a few minutes before my common sense kicked in and I broke the kiss off. I was looking at him and I felt so guilty. Why did I let that happen? That shouldn't have happened.
"Put me down" I demanded and he did as told and as soon as I touched the floor I was off. I went straight into the girls toilets where I slid down the wall until I was sat down with my knees pulled up into my chest.
I couldn't believe that happened. I cheated on Jase. Okay, it wasn't technically cheating, but I kissed another man (well, vamp) when I was in a serious relationship with the love of my life. But my feelings are so muddled up, I have no idea what's right or wrong anymore. I'm so confused, I need to go home. Right now. I can't be round Brandon anymore, not by myself. I don't want that to happen ever again. But it felt so nice. NO! Don't let him ruin what's left of your life. I shout at myself mentally. He ruined my childhood; I'm not letting him ruin my future as well.
Brandon's POV
Just as I thought we were getting somewhere, she takes off. Now I have to find her and make sure she's okay. I hate having the responsibility of that kid. She drives me round the bend. One minute she's kissing me then she runs off? Women… Why can't they ever make up their minds? It's just stupid. I start my look for her, knowing that both Sam and Amelie would kill me if they knew she had run off and I didn't even bother to go find her. I followed in the general direction she had gone and I heard silent sobbing coming from the girls toilets. I knocked lightly on the door, seeing as I am a male and shouldn't be entering the female toilet room. I hear the sobbing stop, so I gently open the door and see her sat on the floor. I stood there at the entry as I watched her. She watched me straight back. I could see the pure confusion mounting on her face, I could also see that hint of lust behind her eyes and I knew that it was for me. Well, at least part of my plan is working. Despite that the other bit is causing me some hassle.
I made a slow movement towards her and when I was stood in front of her, she looked up at me. I offered her my hand and she accepted it. I pulled her to her feet and led her back into the museum. She hadn't said anything and I wasn't going to pressure her just yet. I was quite willing to let her think it over first. But I was pretty sure that I could pull it off whether she came round to the idea of us or not. Jason really never had a chance when I was around. Good thing I only want her for one thing.
