"Connor" Tomorrow said noticing that he had suddenly become quiet and wasn't ranting anymore. The Curse must be taking affect.

"Tom," He looked up at her, finally accepting that she was real, and jumped up and hugged her. "Tom. I thought I'd never see you again. Dad attacked me and wait, I was attacked and I remember being near death." He turned over her hands to show her cut wrist. "I am a vampire now aren't I."

"Connor I'm so sorry, but you were so far gone it was my only option. I had to save you."

"Saving me, saving me you think turning me into our fathers is saving me."

"No, but it beats losing you. After you, go out alone with your father. 'The father will kill the son' remember. At least now, the son is going to live forever instead of being buried in the cemetery he died in. I wasn't going to lose you. I wasn't. Do you think it was easy for me to know that by giving you my blood I was condemning you to this, the same person whose blood had saved me? I sired you and like it or not we're connected through our blood." She was about to leave when she felt his arm on her shoulder pulling her closer to him.

"Tom, I'm sorry I shouldn't have taken out on you. What you did was incredible. You did save me."

"I almost lost you" Tomorrow finally totally broke down into the stream of tears that had been threatening her all night. "Being without you. To never have said goodbye."

"Shh. I know, but I'm here now and I'm not going anywhere. I'll be right here."

"Promise."

"With everything I have. Hey," lifting her chin up. "A childe never leaves their sire. Especially the most beautiful sire I have ever seen" wiping her eyes. "Just don't sire any more guys. First childes get very possessive."

"Well sires usually sire only one childe the rest are just mindless minions who get completely ignored, because the sire only has eyes for her favorite childe. I better go tell everyone that your Curse worked."

"But then you'll have to go home."

"Well I guess the good news can wait a few more minutes. Some night huh."

"One I don't think I could forget if I tired."

"Oh I can think of a way, but I think we've had enough excitement for one night. I had better go, but I'll be by tomorrow with the sunscreen, you'll need it for school on Monday. You'll be safe enough here with Aunt Cordy. I already took off the necklace when you were feeding. And you know about sunlight and decapitation. So just take it easy, you're still not up to full strength yet. I love you," kissed him. "Be safe."
