Six months later ...

TPOV

"Hello Bulldogs! Exams are over and summer vacation is finally here! Have a good summer and enjoy your break before a brand new year."

I happily closed my locker for the last time this school year. After everything that has between Raven and I, our relationship is still strong. It was relieving to be able to live normally after all of the complications we encountered.

I scanned the hallways, carefully maneuvering around the cheerful faces to find the one person I wanted. I finally found her at her locker dumping some crumpled papers into a nearby trash can. I couldn't help but grin at the sight of her.

I walked behind her before wrapping my arms around her waist and pulling her towards me. She looked surprise, but let out a giggle when she realized it was me.

"Well you're in a good mood," Raven stated.

"Who wouldn't be? Sophomore year down, junior year to go," I answered.

She shut her locker and turned around in front of me. She let out a sigh as she entered my embrace again.

I raised my hand to her cheek. "What's with the exasperated sigh?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

She turned her head as she looked around. "I dunno, I guess I was surprised that everything worked out the way I wanted. We're together, Griffin's gone, we made it through the year without any total world chaos."

I kissed her as my hand snaked behind her neck and the other behind her back. "You don't have to worry about that. We're here together and that's all I've ever wanted," I assured her as I pulled away. She let out a smile before placing her lips against mine again.

"Gross!" groaned Rocky, Deuce, and CeCe from behind as. "Would you two please get a room? You're making me sick," Rocky complained.

"Fraid not little sis," I said before looping my arm around Raven and leading her through the halls.

"Do you want to come over later?" Raven asked.

"I would but I'd rather meet at Crusty's instead," I answered unevenly.

She turned her head towards me. "Why?" She questioned with a raised eyebrow.

"Your grandmother most likely doesn't want me there. You know she hates me."

Raven rolled her eyes. "For the millionth time... She doesn't hate you!"

I shook my head refusing to agree with her. When Raven and I started dating, she a little overprotective, naturally, over Raven. It wasn't until we started having sex when I could sense her dislike. The little acts of affection resulted in clenched jaws that made me tense up from feet away. I thought when I got shot by Griffin and turned into a vampire that she would ease off on the hatred.

Then when I got out of the hospital, Raven and I were so close and sensual that I lost control for a little bit and I may have damaged Raven's bed. The worst part was having to explain how it got broken. Raven was so embarrassed and I begged to God to be anywhere else but there. Raven was red faced as she recounted the events. I watched her grandmother's face carefully. The deep set frown and cold and blank expression told me what she thought of me, despite Raven's empathic powers telling me otherwise.

Raven sighed as we exited the building. "Crusty's it is since you don't want to face my grandma's apparent hatred," she said as she gave me a look that made me flush. No matter how foolish she made it seemed, I was not going with Raven to face disapproving stares.

Later that night...

RPOV

"Good night, Grandma!" I shouted quickly.

"Raven?"

I turned to her before I opened my bedroom.

"I-I want you to know I'm proud of you and I am glad you're happy. And that I love you."

I smiled back at her. "Love you too, Grandma."

I walked into my bedroom and locked the door. I let a smile spread on my face. "Hello, Ty," I said coolly.

"How did you know I was here?" He had been hiding in the shadows, but I could still sense him. When I am alone with Ty, I can feel everything he feels and embrace his affections towards me.

I chuckled a bit under my breath. "Do you always forget that I can sense your emotions?"

"Pretty much," he answered as he walked towards me. "So how am I feeling now?" He asked with a raised eyebrow. He inched closer and closer towards me in subtle movements, but that was all I could focus on.

I pretended to ponder, even though I knew how he felt already. I tapped my chin and pressed my lips together. My eyes met his in an intense gaze.

"Horny," I answered when he became just an arm's length away from me.

He laughed as if it were a joke, but he was so horny that I'm surprised he didn't pounce on me the moment I walked through the door. "Is that so?" He asked as his arm snaked behind my back and pulled my against his hard body.

"Well I don't need powers to feel how horny you are," I answered glancing at his lower region. His warm hands traveled under my shirt.

"Can you blame me?" His voice got so husky and deep that my knees almost gave out. His hands gripped me but my head was still unfocused. I grasped his shoulders to steady myself.

"I guess not," I said breathlessly. I fought to control my breath as his hands slid up and down my body.

His lips crushed against mine as he rolled my shirt up. I traced the muscles along his arms as our lips molded perfectly together. I closed my eyes as my shirt was lifted off of my body and my bare skin pressed against his hard chest. He pulled apart as his eyes studied my face. "What?" I asked softly.

He shook his head but I pressed on. "Why do you do that?" I complained.

"Do what?" He had a bewildered look on his face.

"That. When you stare at me with that intense look as if your analyzing me and when I ask you why, you dismiss it."

Ty paused and looked at me in silence while his fingers spread across the plane of my back.

"Do you know how much I love?" He asked slowly and softly. I just blinked at him, my confusion spreading on my face. His response didn't even answer my question.

"Yes," I answered, wondering where he was going with this.

"Without your powers?" He pressed. I rolled my eyes hoping he would get to the point.

"Yes."

"I want to enjoy the rest of my life with you. Your face was the last thing I saw before...," he started before he trailed off."

I searched his eyes, wanting him to finish.

"You looked like an angel. I actually was content with going to heaven because you put me at peace. There are times were you look at me a certain way or the light catches your face so perfectly. Whatever the case may be, I have to stop everything and be grateful that your here. That I'm here."

I was taken aback by his words. I stared into his eyes for what seemed like forever. I grabbed the front of his shirt and yanked it off before grabbing the back of his neck smashing my lips into his. This kiss was frantic and desired much more. Ty pulled away again. "I should've explained early if you were going to react like that," he joked as he caught his breath.

My cheeks colored but that didn't stop me from pushing him onto my bed. He tried to sit up and say something, but I had already captured his lips while straddling him, sealing his voice. He had said everything perfectly and that was enough for me. I pulled away and my stomach twisted. I saw what he was talking about. The orange sunset glowed through and touched his skin. Nothing could have caught my attention more than the sight of him. "I love you," I whispered as my eyes tore away from his face.

"I love you, too," he murmured before he pulled me back into our passionate embrace. I felt his hands roam around, as if exploring my body for the first time, which we both knew was not the case.

I was itching to remove his clothing and intertwine with his body. He shifted underneath me and sat up as he tore his shirt away. I traced my fingers slowly along his muscled arms, finding it hard not to notice the bulge in his pants.

I felt his fingers work on my jeans while he nibbled on my neck. I moaned as I pressed into him. I reached behind my back and fumbled to remove my bra. He smoothly move his hands and unclasped the bra before flinging it across the room. He sat there and stared at my chest until his eyes moved to mine with a grin on his face.

"The first couple of times we did this, I always struggled with that," he stated.

"It's kinda hard to do when your focused on other things."

"It wasn't hard for me."

"That's because you were already focused on ripping off all of my clothes." I expected him to come up with a snarky comeback, but we both knew it was true.

"Well, if you don't mind, I'd like to resume to that if you don't mind," he said before reconnecting his lips to my neck.

"Well before we start..." I reluctantly pushed him away stood up and moved across the room. I rummaged around until I found the box and opened it. I pulled out a package before turning to Ty. He sat up and gave me a questioning look. I held up the condom package. "I'm ovulating, so unless we want any vampire babies running around, we need it if we want to continue."

Ty stood up and moved over to me. "I could have gotten the condoms," he said as he examined the packet.

"I know but these have special...enhancements to them," I said as my cheeks flushed.

He grinned down at me before kissing my lips. "I intend on using those enhancements very well," he whispered, knowingly sending shivers down my spine.

He pressed me against the wall, but I was far ahead of him, my hands on the buttons of his jeans, relieving him from the tight constriction created by his jeans. I wiggled out of my jeans, letting them gather at my feet. His chest connected with mine, his skin making mine tingle all over.

His fingers traced the lines along my curves and hips and waist, making me moan in anticipation. I gasped as he pressed himself into me, every inch of his body fit against me. His fingers ran through my hair while my fingers grasped his taught muscles.

I didn't even notice that my panties were gone until I felt his fingers slide between my thighs. My back arched against the wall as his fingers pushed against my sensitive nub. I groaned into his mouth, my nails digging into his skin. My leg found his waist, giving him better access. He swallowed my gasps and moans as he entered one of his fingers inside of me. He kept going and going until I cried out his name and my body shook and trembled and at his private touch of me. I wrapped the other leg around his waist and I heard a groan erupt from him. He removed his last piece of clothing before shifting around, sliding the condom on.

His hands ran over my body before he thrust me up into the wall. I gasped at his quick entrance into my body, but it turned into a moan as I felt my body accept him. We hadn't had the chance to do this together in weeks. With exams and all of the end of the year fun, we weren't able to be this close. Now here we are, clutching each other like our lives depended on it and moaning out each others names as if it was the only thing that we knew how to say.

My fingers latched onto his skin, needing to make purchase as he drove into my body. His touch of me before made it almost impossible to contain my moans and chants. His name fell from my lips as his lips connected with my skin. His grunts and groans against my skin made me tremble in pleasure.

He pressed his chest to mine and he hit the spot that made me scream out of his name. He continued to thrust his member into me with the stamina and strength that never seized to amaze me. His lips connected with mine until he picked up in speed and unleashed himself upon my body. I felt my back arch off of the wall again, but that made me push further on his length, causing me to scream his name. My nails traced along his back, from the shoulder blade to mid-back, surely leaving a mark. Ty hissed and growled in my ear, but I didn't know if it was because of my nails digging into his skin or just the feel of it all. I collapsed on his chest while he groaned my name into my ear, allowing him to use me for whatever he needed while I was in my post-orgasmic state.

He kept driving into me before he was sent reeling. His muscles tensed up and his body shook as he finally released. I still clung onto him because my legs were useless now. I panted as he pressed his forehead against my collarbone, fighting to catch his breath. I was glad that he was still pressed inside of me because I wasn't quite ready to let him go. He finally moved out of me and pulled off the condom before grabbing another packet. I could still hear his heart racing against my chest. He kissed me before resting his forehead on mine while his body calmed down.

"Those enhancements really do wonders," he stated with a chuckle. I rolled my eyes, but I couldn't help but notice the second condom he was rolling on. Things were far from over.
