Chapter 8

…She was gone. Diana fled the fiesta and ran as quickly as she could until the rain began pouring down. It'd been holding out all day, just as she had. But now the heavens ripped and so did her eyes.

It wasn't her anger towards Ew-Christian she was running form, but her own towards herself.

She let this relationship become out of hand. So out of hand that she now believed she loved him. She couldn't do it. She couldn't let him be murdered because she loved him. As long as they found her and not him it'd be ok.

As she ran further and further she accidentally slipped on a mud puddle in the rain. Falling to her knees she began to sob. She couldn't go on… she couldn't do anything with out Christian.

To think, the man she loved is the man she'd loved all along. She'd always wanted to love a man like Christian… ever since she new what love was.



The wind was vicious and the rain was beating like pellets on a window. Over the hill he could see her… she fell and huddled to the side of the road crying. How could I have hurt her so badly? I was so stupid… he thought

She was too good for him, he decided He couldn't let her go on with him unless she really wanted to.

She's just like the wind, but in a good way…

"She's like the wind through my tree

She rides the night next to me

She leads me through moonlight

Only to burn me with the sun

She's taken my heart

But she doesn't know what she's done

Feel her breath on my face

Her body close to me

Can't look in her eyes

She's out of my league

Just a fool to believe

I have anything she needs

She's like the wind." He sang softly into the night.

Watching her notice him he started playing with his fingers. She slowly stood and walked toward him as the winds settled and the rain relaxed.

"I love you no matter who you tell me you are." She whispered into his ear. She lightly kissed him and he graciously kissed her back.

"Promise me one thing." She whispered.

"Anything."

"Promise?" He diligently nodded his head.

"Don't go to Montmartre. Christian, promise me you won't go."

"I'll go anywhere with you." He smiled trying to kiss her again. But she stepped away.

"Christian, for reasons, that are a danger to you, I don't want you to come with me. I need to leave. I need to get away from the eyes of the world. I need to just save you. No matter what happens to me."

"Diana what are you talking about?"



You have to tell him Diana! She scorned herself.

Tell him, or let him die… she couldn't do that. She loved him too much.

"Christian I lied to you." She mumbled. His face showed nothing but confusion.

"I put your life in danger as well as mine. And the thing that endangers us both is, is the picture you carry in your suitcase."

"What?? Why didn't you tell me?"

"Because Christian. I thought you would have been smart enough to leave when you got the right sign. I didn't think I was going to fall in love with you! I mean… I don't even know what I mean anymore. I just didn't expect to fall in love with you." She whispered. He looked so angry, so heartbroken.

"Christian I'm sorry."

"Why do they want the frame? Tell me Diana."

"There's something init. Gold… that's it. They want it. If they find you they'll kill you and take it. If they find me, I'm sure I'm a lot better off than you are so just go and live your life and forget about me." She went to move past his side but he wrapped his arm around her waist.

"Diana, we're in this together. I asked to come so I cannot be angry with you and you did tell me that nothing good would come of it. I chose to come anyways, so we stick together. OK?"

"Christian, I can't let you do that. Besides if they catch me—"

"They'll rape you, and kill you. They'll hurt you Diana. Just like Harry hurt you when he gave you that scar."

Backing away from him, Diana attempted to cover her cheek as if he'd forget about it once it left his sight.

"Diana, you don't need to tell me anything about your past or your scar, or even that you care whether or not I should come or go… all I want to hear is that you love me. And that you'll be my baby. That is all."

Diana smiled as he began to sing.

"The night we met I knew I needed you so

And if I had the chance I'd never let you go

So won't you say you love me

I'll make you so proud of me

We'll make 'em turn their heads

Every place we go

So won't you please

Be my little baby

Say you'll be my darling

Be my baby now

Ooh, ohh, ohh, oh

I'll make you happy, baby

Just wait and see

For every kiss you give me

I'll give you three (Diana leaned in and kissed him passionately and he returned it triple)

Oh, since the day I saw you

I have been waiting for you

You know I will adore you

Till eternity

So won't you please

Be my little baby

Say you'll be my darling

Be my baby now

Ooh, ohh, ohh, ohh, oh

So come on and please

Be my little baby

Say you'll be my darling!"

Diana took a deep breath and looked at Christian with a small smile…

"I love you Christian… but loving someone entitles them to know everything dear Christian." Still speaking she walked slowly to him.

"Such as the curves of his body and the smell of his hair and his favorite food and where every freckle on his body is and how he enjoys being pleasured…" Softly he kissed her lips. It seemed like forever he'd felt her lips and it had only been seconds ago.

"Show me how you want to be pleasured Christian…" She whispered seductively and they returned to their room…

OOOO… LOL I'll let you use your imaginations on that part. Thank you those who are R&R, I am currently deciding whether to keep going on this fic since there is no real apparent interest from the majority of the topic, so thank you to those who have read, and if you feel I should continue, please let me know in either e-mail or review… Thank you (
