28 I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairytale, I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet, lead her up the stairwell - Taylor Swift
(Jamie's POV)
Val whisked me off, ever so romantically. I let out a nervous giggle, wondering what he was thinking behind the blocking wall. He wouldn't let me in his mind, declaring that he wanted to show me 'some place.' I didn't think I wouldn't know it, as I had Melbourne engraved into my mind, well, most of it anyway.
He lead me down unfamiliar paths, which kind of scared me a little, but that just made it all so much funner.
"Val," I whined, when the journey to this 'some place' was becoming suspiciously long. I wondered if he made some unnecessary circles just to throw me off track.
"One more minute," he smirked at my expression, clutching my hand tighter.
It was just us two. We all paired off, Jade talking with Charlie. It'd been a full 16 hours and Evee still hadn't come back yet, or at least, not to us. We didn't bother to try and find her, but even so, I was worried inside for her wellbeing. She was fed, so it was all okay, but she'd probably underestimate her vampire skills, basically blowing our cover in the worst case scenario.
A familiar refreshing rainforest smell filled my lungs. Such deja vu. I took a sharp intake of breath, memories, or just a memory, flooding my mind. Pure bliss.
"Val..." I breathed, my voice trailing, my brain unable to recall the words I was supposed to say. "Is this..."
The towering trees, the wafting freshwater scent. The trickling river. Soft grass. Sunlight peeking through the holes. Snapshot of perfection.
"It is," he smiled, pulling me in closer to him. He pressed his soft lips gently against mine, the kisses gradually becoming more passionate, more alive.
I felt myself melt a little inside, at every burning touch. I pushed him onto the ground, never breaking the kiss and pulled on his hair, yet bringing him closer to me. Our breaths, unnecessarily labored, breathing deeply to catch the air we'd lost. His suddenly flaming hands slid under my shirt, leaving shivery trails along my stomach.
"Valeri," I moaned when his lips left mine, moving down slowly to my neck. I pressed him closer to me when he started kissing my, well his mark. It throbbed deliciously loud in my ear, echoing my accelerating heartbeats.
I ripped his clothes off, obviously not learning from our previous mistakes. He didn't bother to take extra care with mine either, and well, I don't exactly have to spell it out to you what happened next.
And, it was that precise moment, that I realized, how much, I truly, honestly loved Val, not that I didn't know before. But it was then, that I figured out, my life was a misery before him. Even if he took me away from my life, he only made me better.
He was the light of my life, the window to my world. The reason my heart beats, my meaning of love. He was the words in my favorite book, the people to my world. He was the music to my ears, the reason my heart sang. He was the reason for my butterflies, the reason I ever smiled. He was the blood to my body, my legs when I walked. He was the breath I breathed and the light I saw by. He was my sun, stars, and moon to my sky. He was the water to my ocean, the grass to my land. The blue to my sky. The answer to my prayers. He was the god to my world. He was my guardian angel, my Noah Calhoun to my Allie Hamilton. He was the cheese to my macaroni, the icing to my cake. He was the sugar to my dessert. He was the wind to my sail, the yang to my yin. He was the sweetness to my tongue, the endless words in my page. He was the leaves on my tree and the wind beneath my wings. He was the pot of gold to my rainbow, my lottery prize to my ticket. He was my knight in shining armor, the key to my lock. He was Romeo to my Juliet, Taylor Lautner to my hungry fans. He was the picture in my frame, completing my life.
Maybe Jade was right. Maybe Val did change me, for the better. Maybe this was fate. I was always meant to be a vampire anyway, maybe not fully, but a vampire anyhow. I did eventually become a vampire in the end. I was always meant to be a vampire, I believed that. Tell me a year before, and I'd just laugh.
Amazing how much could be done in just a matter of 12 weeks. Amazing how much a life can change in a mere 12 weeks. Amazing how much can be felt in 12 weeks. Hate, in the beginning, loss, love. Revenge, could that be felt?
I stared into Val's deep pool blue eyes, cherishing the moment I would never forget. Perfection, was what it was. I vowed to myself, whatever happened at the end of each day, I would always have Val, by my side.
"Never leave me," I whispered, caressing his cheek in my hand, watching his expression fill with something indescribable. "Promise."
"Promise," he pledged.
I kissed my mark on him gently, hearing the slow molten thuds under his skin. I smiled a little, closing the distance between us and wrapped my arms around him.
"I love you Jamie," Val murmured in my hair, "with all my life. From the moment I saw you, I knew, and yet I took you anyway, for my own personal benefit. I was curious about you, the spell you seemed to have over me. You captivate me, keep me guessing. I knew you were different from all the others. I knew that somewhere deep inside, I love you somehow. The only moment I regret showing love, is when Gerard took you away from me, but it was true. I love you."
I blinked away the imaginary tears and looked up at his shining eyes, full of love, happiness, joy, like no one could take it from him, and no one could. No one could ever feel the love I felt. It was exhilarating, always enthralling. It pulled me together. With Val. Our love. Forever and always.
And yet, there was that hint in the tone of his voice, suggesting another meaning under those words.
"I love you too Val," I whispered, "and even though I blamed you for ruining my life, you did otherwise. You complete my life. You opened me. I'm open to you now. I trust you with my life. I don't I'd be able to live, if you ever left. I...I just can't see my life without you. I need you, as selfish as that sounds, I have to have you."
Every word, was the complete truth. I knew it.
(Val's POV)
Shit. What the fuck have I gotten myself into?
