Clarice was woken by Lecter sitting next to what he thought her
sleeping form. Her nightmare was the worst she had had in a long while.
Though she had never met Will Graham, it was him that shot Lecter.
When she felt his warmth she cuddled up against his firm body. She whispered low but high enough for him to hear. "I love you Hannibal." Clarice didn't care about her promise to her self earlier, no she wanted to call him by his given name, she felt her self quiver all over her body and she was glad for the fact that she was in bed, even though it was next to a cannibal. Clarice tried to hide her smile but was unsuccessful.
"Your awake." Hannibal asked hiding his surprise as Clarice sat up, her head resting on Hannibal's shoulder. "Yes, you seemed to wake me up." Hannibal, didn't put his arm around her, he simply sat there, enjoying the feeling of having Clarice so close. No bars, no glass wall between them, and they weren't separated by Clarice's former masters. The air in the room was filled with unanswered questions wanting their answers. Yet neither Hannibal nor Clarice seemed willing to ask them or answer them.
"Clarice." Hannibal began. But was for the first time cut off by Clarice. "The answer to you are looking for is yes." Hannibal wanted to say something but Clarice cut him to it. "Dr. Lecter." Hannibal cut her off. "Clarice, I would have hoped that you by now, would call me by given name." Clarice looked down.
She felt her chin being lifted by his gentle fingers. Her eyes met his. His mouth was inches from hers, she could feel his warm breath, but their lips never met. "Say it Clarice." Hannibal hissed. He needed for her to say it. It would be the last line for her to cross. They should no longer be tutor and student, but equals.
Hannibal drew even close. His mouth was at her ear as he again whispered his command. Having him so close, was driving Clarice over the edge, she knew what could happen if she said it. She longed for the release his name would give.
Clarice was afraid that she had lost her voice. "Hannibal... Hannibal" Clarice closed her eyes. "Look at me Clarice." Clarice kept her eyes Close. Not because she wanted to be defiant, but because she was afraid of the lust there was in her eyes, and that he would see it. of cause he would see it. But he hadn't repeated any of that he had said to her at Chesapeake, she didn't know if he still wanted her.
"Clarice you know I don't like repeating my self, and you have tested my patient more the enough for the past few days. Now look at me." Clarice looked at him, there was a silent plea in her eyes, only Hannibal knew it's meaning. "Clarice" Hannibal's voice was thick with lust. "I love you, have done so, since I saw you the first time back in Baltimore. I knew you weren't ready at the time, I thought you were ready when I asked you to run with me in Chesapeake, when you said no, I was for the second time in my life wrong. But I knew then that you loved me, but it was still too soon."
His mouth was again only few inches from her own. But he still didn't kiss her. "Are you ready now Clarice? Hmmm are you here for the right reasons?" Clarice was taken aback, was he still just playing with her? She drew back from him, her anger coloring her face red.
When she found her voice she made no attempt to hide her anger. "You honestly think I here to turn you in, Dr. Lecter?" Clarice got up from the bed, leaving Lecter to him self. "When do you think Dr. Lecter that we will learn to trust one another?" Lecter was at loss for words by Clarice's insight. Had he really asked her that because he still thought she would call her friends from the FBI? He realized he had. They indeed needed to trust each other.
"Clarice." Lecter tried. But too late, she was gone. He only had the warmth from where she been to remind him that they had for a short while shared the same bed. A feeling of sadness came over him.
