Song for the chapter - For Everything A Reason by Carina Round

Claire didn't know what to do with herself. Everything seemed back to normal yet Claire knew it wasn't, she knew something was missing, Myrnin was missing.

She hadn't had any idea how much of an impact he had on her, the days at the lab were lonely and boring without him there and everything felt empty, Claire felt empty. She missed the exaggerated enthusiasm he had for science, the crazy fashion choice that always made her smile, the odd looks he gives her when she says certain things. She missed everything about him. She missed him.

Over the past few days without him Claire hadn't said much, she never felt like talking, not even to Eve. People would ask questions which she would reply to with the shortest answers possible, staying quiet for most of the time. She would daydream constantly, about the draug, about the fight, about Myrnin…

"Earth to Claire."

Eve's sharp voice whipped her back to the present. Claire glanced up at where she was standing in front of her, staring down with an odd expression on her face.

"I called you like 3 times, what's up with you?"

"I'm just…tired."

"…Okay, well Amelie sent one of her minions to tell you that she wants you in her office, like now."

Claire nodded and stood up, rubbing her eyes to wake herself up from the daydream she had been lost in. She sighed and grabbed her backpack, slinging it onto her shoulder as she walked up to the wall and stared at the patch where the portal should be.

It took longer than usual for Claire to concentrate enough to conjure up Amelie's office. She tried to remember the plush carpet and expensive desk, the neatly stacked books in the bookcases, the tiffany lamps and comfortable chairs and finally after a while the colour swirled into the wall, creating a doorway into Amelie's office.

Claire stepped through the tingling feeling in the doorway and noticed Amelie sitting at her desk, looking strangely happy. Her hair was neatly curled on her head in a blonde crown, accentuating her cold beauty along with a feminine white suit and a pearl necklace. She smiled as Claire entered the room, clasping her hands together on her desk.

"Ah, Claire, I'm so glad you came, I'm sure you will be too. You see, I have something for you. Follow me."

With that she gracefully stood up and marched over to the huge doors at the end of her office, pulling them open easily and stalking out, expecting Claire to follow, which she did.

She followed Amelie down corridor after corridor, jogging for a few steps to keep up.

"Where are we going?" Claire asked breathlessly, looking up at Amelie's calm expression. She smiled once again-which is more smiling than she usually does in a week!- and looked down at Claire.

"You'll see."

They carried on walking through a number of doors, so many that Claire gave up trying to remember where she came from, until they got to a dead end. A single doorway stood at the end of the corridor.

Amelie glanced one more time at Claire before stepping up to the door, turning the gold handle slowly and opening it.

Claire frowned at Amelie before stepping into the room.

"You're welcome," she heard Amelie whisper from behind her before the door softly clicked shut, leaving Claire alone in the room.

She glanced around at the dark walls, it looked a lot like the room she and Eve stayed in, red wallpaper and carpet, a huge four poster bed with a red canopy and very posh looking furniture. She moved further into the room, before stopping abruptly.

There was someone in the bed.

Myrnin.

He was lying still in the mass of scarlet sheets which covered the bottom half of his body, his torso was naked and deathly pale against the colour of the sheets, his hair was curling messily over is forehead and around his ears. Just seeing his peaceful face made a tightness in Claire's chest that she hadn't noticed lift, she sighed at the sight of him and her eyes prickled with tears of relief.

She moved closer to sit gently on the side of the bed, careful not to jolt him, and traced her fingers softly over his cheek, brushing his hair away from his forehead. Tears rolled silently down her cheeks as she caressed his face, stroking his lips lightly, twisting her hand to clasp his sweetly.

She waited for almost an hour for him to wake yet he never did. He lay there silently, looking innocent and beautiful in his unconsciousness. Claire fiercely swiped her tears away and lay his limp hand back down on the bed before standing up slowly and taking in a deep breath.

"I love you Myrnin," She whispered past the lump in her throat.

She turned around slowly and started to walk out of the room, preparing herself for the pain of loss that would eventually hit her. She reached the door and grabbed the handle, ready to pull it open.

"I love you too."

A weak whisper stopped her in her tracks. She opened her eyes slowly and caught her breath in her throat, turning back around to face the bed.

Myrnin's head was turned to look at her, his tired eyes were open enough for him to look at her through his thick eyelashes. A small, heartbreaking smile was pulling up his perfect lips.

The tears started to stream down Claire's face once again as soon as she saw him, relief swelled up in her as she ran back to the bed, grabbing his hands and pressing her lips to his like her life depended on it. She held his face in her hands, welding him to her as she kissed him in a tear tainted embrace.

They pulled away slightly, just enough for Claire to breath, their lips still brushing as they gazed at each other. He smiled again when he saw Claire's blubbering, this time looking stronger and not as delicate.

"I love you Claire, I love you so much."

He brushed her hair away from her face and kissed her again, pulling her down to lie next to him on the bed. His arm snaked around her waist and his other stayed against her cheek as Claire's hands stayed on his face.

She never wanted to let go of him, she never wanted to lose him. (warning it gets a bit raunchy ;) )

The kisses deepened intensely and Claire never wanted it to stop. She wanted him more than she had ever wanted anyone, she needed him like she needed oxygen and she would never let him go.

His strength increased with every kiss as Claire's love increased. His every touch sent fireworks to her chest and butterflies to her stomach, her whole body tingled next to his.

She grabbed the zip of her jacket, pulling it down and shrugging it off before throwing it to the floor, never breaking the kiss as she rolled with him on the bed. She felt his hands moving over her back, pulling her ever closer to him and causing her stomach to flip frantically. She ran her hands over his chest and the planes of his stomach caressing the soft skin whilst twining her fingers in his hair and kissing him deeply.

She felt his lips move tenderly against hers, his tongue traced her top lip delicately, asking for permission, which she granted gladly. She felt his teeth gently trap her bottom lip, tugging at it lightly as he rolled her over to lay on top of her, stroking her waist and hesitantly pulling at the hem of her top.

Claire let him tug he top over her head, feeling relieved that she wore a good bra today as his hands found their way back to her body. She ran her hands over his shoulder blades, feeling the muscles move and contract as he ducked his head to her neck, trailing kisses over her skin and brushing his lips over her throat.

Her hands trailed down the dip of his spine, realising that he was wearing jeans and wasn't completely naked, to her disappointment. They were both breathing heavily as Myrnin moved down, trailing kisses down her body and over her breasts, tracing down her stomach and reaching the waistband of her jeans. He fiddled with the button, pulling it open and jamming down the zip before easing them down over her thighs.

He rocked back on his heels so he could tug her jeans off her legs and throw them to the floor. His breathing was heavy and his lips were slightly swollen with the kisses, his hair was dishevelled and messy which just made him look sexier and Claire noticed a prominent lump in his pants which made her blush brightly.

She sat up and took hold of his shoulder, pulling him back down on top of her and kissing him fiercely, wrapping her arms around his neck as he stroked her hips. She felt his arm against her back, crushing her body against his, she felt his hips grinding against hers, his erection pressing into her thigh, sending tingles around her whole body.

Her hands trailed down his body, finding the button of his jeans and undoing it swiftly. She pulled them off his hips, trailing them down his legs and pushing them away with her feet.

She felt him hesitate for a second before stopping and pulling away enough to stare into her eyes.

"Are you sure?" His voice was rough and quiet and his unneeded breath came out in short little gasps.

Claire nodded quickly "Yes. I love you."

He let out a small breath of a laugh before clamping his mouth against hers once again and moving his hands higher on her back to undo her bra. He threw it off the bed with careless disregard before squashing their bodies together.

Claire gasped quietly, levering her hand between the mass of hot and cold skin and moving it down to between his hips, cupping the lump and causing a low moan to escape his lips. She tucked her finger into the waistband of his pants, taking hold of the material and trying to pull them down. After a while of fumbling Myrnin finally took over, never breaking the kiss as he took his pants off.

Claire took hers off as he did his and wrapped her legs around his waist while he levelled himself on top of her.

"I love you," he whispered again and again as they loved each other long into the night.
