Lexus walked into the school looking pale in the face as it's been a week since she last seen Vincent. She didn't know she would miss him so much like this. She sighed as she walked up to her locker and open it. She started putting her books into it as she felt a tap on her shoulder which caused her to jump. She heard a familiar chuckle which she quickly turn around and was face to face with her Vincent bright happy face.

"Whoa… where did I get my Vincent from? He not mine. It would be nice but we are just pretending to be dating because of my big mouth." she thought before she smiled hugely at Vincent.

"Thank God you're okay. I've been so worry about you." She told him as she suddenly hug him without even thinking about it. He chuckled more as he hugged her back in a tight grip as he was afraid of letting her go.

She back away slowly and looked up to him with a big smile. "How you feeling?" she asked. He chuckled more as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"I'm good. Better than ever. Suffer a bit more because I was stuck under the same roof as my parents for a few days, but I'm fine. How you doing? You look like you been turn into a zombie since I've been gone. Are you well?" he asked her as he touches her cheek then felt her forehead as she was sick.

She laughed quietly as she moved his hand away from her face. "I've just haven't been getting enough rest because of all the worrying over you. I didn't know if you were dying or how well you were. My mind been going crazy of thoughts about your health condition." She said as she rubbed the back of her head in embarrassment. The bell rung as it notify them classes were about to start. They looked up and laughed before he closed her locker for her then took her hand into his.

"Well I'm alive because of you and I'm not going anywhere." He said as he brought up her hand to his lips and kissed the back of her hand lightly while he began walking her to her class. She blushed brightly from his gesture and words. "What do you mean because of me?" she asked as she walked with him.

"Well...since my parents told me of your well-being; I've been able to recover faster than usual. Plus I was wearing your silver cross that protected my neck. Literally." He said softly to her with a hint of a blush on his cheeks. She looked at him with amazement then blushed herself from his words.

"I'm kind of glad to hear that." She replied back with shyness. He squeezed her hand lightly while he walked her to her first period class. Once he got her to the class door he kissed her forehead lightly which caused her to blushed brighter. "See you at lunch." He told her before walking off to his class. She watched him before the second bell rung.

Lunch time arrived and Lexus was sitting at one of the outside patio benches eating her lunch. She didn't look pale anymore like she did that morning. She looked like her normal self. She looked around the courtyard searching for Vincent arrival. She was super happy that he return to her alive and well. "I guess i do have a huge crush on him then i really thought. That boy just can't leave my mind for a second now." She thought to herself as she took a deep breath of the fresh spring year. Her junior year of high school was almost to a close then senior year will be her cramming year. Homecoming, prom, graduation and then what. She sighed more as she lower her head she didn't know what she wanted to do with her life once graduation hits her head on. She jumped with a tap on her shoulder and looked at Vincent seating right next to her. She totally didn't notice him walking towards her or seating next to her. She was just so distracted from her future planning.

"I'm sorry for startling you. You just seem so out of it. What's on your mind?" he asked as he looked at her with a worry look. She blushed and shook her head to reassure him.

"I was just thinking on what I'm going to do once I graduate from this place." she told him with a wry smile. He tilted his head, "Any colleges in mind?" He asked as she drops her head. "Not a clue. I doubt I would have enough funds to get into a college let alone have a high GPA. See it's just my mother and I since my father passed away when I was twelve and my older brother is off across seas in the marines. My mother wants me to go to a good college and be something worthy like a nurse, lawyer, or CEO of some big company. Yet… I have no clue what I want to do." she rants as she rubbed her temple. She felt strong arms wrap around her waist and moved her form closer to a warm body. She looked up and stared straight into warm amber orbs.

"You still have a year to think on what you want to do plus you now got me to lean on. I'll protect you forever." He comforts her which deep down she knew he meant it. A light blush flushes her cheeks as she boldly lean in and kissed him lightly on his lips. He didn't back off, but deepen the kiss. "Oh my god… his kisses are going to be the death of me one day. Or wake me from my death like sleep. I'll be sleeping beauty for him." her mind raced as she kept kissing him. She even opens her mouth slightly when she felt his tongue begging for entrance. She let out a light moan which she got a soft growl in return from him. Soon he broke the kiss and stared straight into her violet eyes. She was softly panting as she kept looking into his honey amber eyes.

Vincent smiled down to her and hugged her tight. "I need to tell you something. It's very important for both our sake, but mainly yours." He said as he release her from his grip which she wanted to protest from the lack of his touch. She nods, "Shoot."
