I could tell that Rebbecca was shocked by my confession, due to the silence that followed it. Within the little while that passed I was actually starting to get worried that she was mad or something, well that was until she contributed to the hug that we were in, by wrapping her own arms around me. In fact, she was clinging onto me so tightly that it was getting harder to breath, and was followed by a series of uncontrolled wheeps. I was expecting her to ask how I knew, or even go as far as yelling at me to mind my own business... Apparently I haven't given her much credit. "It'll be alright." I whispered after sighing quietly at my own stupidity, "Yeah it sucks... But, it'll all work out eventually." I continued speaking comforting words to her, hoping that at least one of them would work to calm her down... But before any of them could Darren's voice stopped everything. "I'm sorry." Hearing his words I quickly let go of my friend and replaced the hug with holding onto her arm as I swung around to look at him. "Why are you leaving Darren?" I asked, catching both of them off guard, not only by the question itself but also by the tone of my voice. I was mad, not exactly at him because deep down I knew it wasn't his idea to run off, but more so because I was sick of all the secrecy. Darren sighed and ran his hand through his hair as the seconds began to tick by. "And why haven't you told us?" This time it was Evra who spoke up, walking out of the dressing room with his arms crossed stubbornly against his chest. I blinked a little in interest as the half vampire looked over at him then back of us, his expression even more apologetic then it was before. "It's not like I'm choosing to leave." He suddenly snapped, turning so defensive so quickly I had to contain myself from jumping a bit in surprise. " is making me, were going to some place called... Vampire Mountain-";"You still haven't answered my question." Evra spoke up again. I swear, had it not been for the current situation I'd have to laugh at how much he sounded like a nagging house wife. Not that he didn't have a good reason for doing so. Darren turned his attention back to his friend, his lips edging back to a frown. "I was going to, but after I told Rebbecca I needed some time to think. As if that goodbye wasn't enough... I was going to tell you guys now actually."
That seemed to trigger something, as Evra went from angry-angry to understandingly upset. Even I was starting to feel a little foolish, I mean... Of course it would be hard to tell all of your friends your leaving for possibly good. The next thing that happened was a total guy moment, the two made their ways toward each other and hugged. I couldn't understand what they were saying exactly but if I were to take a guess it would be something along the lines of; 'I'll miss you man.' This time I needed to smile, it did help to stifle the laugh that was beginning to form. I waited a bit before ruining the embarrassing goodbye, but... There was only so much of this awkwardness that I could take. Placing my hand against my lips I coughed, cutting through the murmurs and causing them both to let go of one another and to look in my direction. "I think we should let the two lovebirds have some alone time." I explained, smiling triumphantly as I eyed the couple. From the corner of my eye I could see Evra nod frantically before walking over to me, taking my hand, and like what Darren and Rebbecca had done to us the other day, walked off leaving them alone. We continued to pace out of the tent in silence, and only stopped walking once we were actually outside. Shifting a little bit I turned to look up at him, and within a few seconds we both began to laugh in usion. Really, I didn't exactly know why we had just burst out laughing... But; I suppose it was because that despite the fact that one of our dearest friends was leaving we were still now even with the couple, and for some odd reason we found that rather humorous.
Evra was the first to stop laughing, his grin randomly slipping from his face as he seemed to get lost in thought. Noticing this I let of of his hand and instead placed mine on his shoulder. "What's wrong?" I asked, not moving away even after his eyes suddenly turned to look down at me. However, the intensity that they held was enough to make my heart skip a beat. "I was just thinking..." He said, inching closer as his arms sneakily wound their way around my waist, "That things like this can happen at anytime. To anyone" I gulped, a little confusedabout what he was getting at though not daring to speak as to let him explain himself further. "What I mean is.." He continued, pulling me even closer so our chests were pressed up against one another's. I could tell that he was starting to get a little flustered, even with how hard he was clearly trying not to show it. "If you were to ever have to leave, I don't... I don't know what I'd do" His gaze softened, and for a moment my lips parted as if I were about to say something. My voice had only just began to sound when it was muffled by his lips attacking my own. I didn't give myself any time to act hesitant, and right away wrapped my arms around his neck in hopes of knocking it up a bit. But, like before, he moved away just as it was starting to get good. "So..." He muttered, kissing me affectionately once again, "We should enjoy every moment," Yet another quick peck, "That we have together." Something took over me from there, and with a voice that I didn't realize I had I growled lightly before stating with power; "Stop teasing me Evra." With that, this time, I kissed him. With such force that he didn't dare move away. I could feel his tongue lightly lick my bottom lip, so I right away allowed him access into my mouth. Our muscles beginning to wrestle the moment that his tongue found it's way in. I almost didn't notice the absence of his arms around my waist... well, not until I was lifted off my feet bridal style anyway. While I did gasp I didn't dare open my eyes, really because I didn'tfeel the need to. I mean, I knew where we were going. We were heading towards his tent.
Despite the time it was taking us to get there, and how far the distance was, we didn't move away from the kiss.
