Uh Oh :S what is going to happen? What is Ian's drastic plan B that will shock everyone?

Song Charlie to Ian: Last Night on Earth - Delta Goodrem

"Good you're here, make them hand over my human" Veritas steps in their direction and blocks the others with her body.

"I think not Draco, I believe you left quite a few facts about this whole thing." Draco shakes his head.

"I knew I shouldn't have bothered with you if you want something done, do it yourself." Draco says vampires swarm out of the car and the trees surrounding the perimeter, Ian thinking quickly calls.

"Cat, knife." Cat knives at her fingers already throws one to him cutting his hand but it heals.

"All you sods stay back or I'm going to have to do plan b, not that I don't want to do it but you know a bit more planning needed to go into this and time, bloody funny when it counts for vampires, time is the thing we never have enough of." Draco's eyes narrow not trusting him to pull something, no one moves so Ian shrugs knife in hand and a grin on his face.

"Charlie?"

"Yeah?" she answers him.

"What are your views on marriage?"

"No!" Draco screams.

"Um okay I guess, are you asking me to marry you?" Charlie asks Ian whose grin was still firmly in place with Draco's fury.

"Yes luv." he says Charlie's mouth was open as were a couple of his friends honestly thinking he was joking.

"No Charlie you have no idea what it would mean!" Draco yells.

"It would mean he cannot take you or he'd declare war." Ian explains.

"On all vampires." Veritas adds, Charlie, thinks about it, marriage wasn't exactly on her to-do list but hell if it meant she was free of Draco she'd take it, she wasn't sure when or how but she'd fallen for Ian, hard.

"Okay." Charlie agrees Ian looks to her their eyes meeting.

"You can't do this!" Draco yelled as Ian re-opened his healed hand.

"By my blood, you are my wife." Ian says Charlie keeps eye contact with him as she takes the knife cutting her own hand, wow it hurt but they held each other's bleeding hands as one.

"By my blood, you are my husband." she says knowing that was what she was supposed to say, and it was done. If Draco's eyes blazed green any brighter, Charlie swore they'd burn his eyes out, not that that would be a bad thing but wow he was pissed.

"This is not happening!" he yelled.

"You are correct." Veritas says.

"It has already happened." she continued. Ian sweeps Charlie into his arms and takes off leaving the others there to deal with the political stuff, not his strong point anyway.

"He's not going to give up." Charlie says later in the motel room he had booked for them, he was lounging on the bed, she was pacing.

"Don't fret luv, he can't do anything once the marriage is finalised." she turns to him.

"Finalised?" she repeated he winks at her and she smiles with a laugh.

"Of course." she says shaking her head, coming over to the bed and sitting at the end to look at him.

"So, this marriage thing it goes both ways, right?" she asks.

"What do you mean?" he asks.

"I mean I can only be with you and you can only be with me right or is it just the girls that get leashed?" Ian laughs.

"Blimey, woman do you think that was easy for me? My mates never thought I'd marry, ever, neither did I to be honest."

"What changed?" Charlie asked he smiles at her.

"I was without you for six nights and realised I couldn't do it, living without you in my arms or in the same room was impossible." Charlie kisses him but pulls back.

"You didn't answer me." she says he sighs.

"Yes, luv as long as we both live we are stuck together." she lightly tries to punch him, but he takes her fist and flips her over so he's pinning her on the bed she laughs.

"You're going to have to show me that one."

"I'm going to show you a lot more than that poppet." he swears she smiles.

"I want to show you something first just so you know what you've gotten yourself into." she sits up Ian still kneeling, she takes off his shirt and holds her right hand over his heart. Ian has no idea what's she's doing when suddenly he feels something, something he hadn't felt in over two hundred and twenty years thud ump, thud ump, thud ump his own heartbeat…

Ohh! :) Review and get ready for the next chapter!
