Disclaimer: I still own nothing in this story; everyone should know this by now.

A/N: I am sorry about the lack of updates with this story. I have been working my butt off, trying to finish Someday, so that I could focus on this one a little bit better. I think that I have about 10 chapters left of Someday, and I still have no clue on this one. Thanks for sticking with the story this long, and I hope that you enjoy this chapter as well.

I don't remember what time it was exactly when I finally fell asleep, but I know that I slept much better that night than I had in years. I could've only been asleep for two hours, and I felt much better than I had if I'd slept for the past three years. However, I knew that I was going to pay for my choice last night, as my back is currently killing me, and I know that I am much weaker than I was. Which means that I will have to feed off someone innocent tonight. Someone not as strong as killers.

I tried to roll over and lay on my stomach to try and stretch out my back when I was aware of am arm holding me in place. I turned the opposite way instead, to face her. She was still fast asleep, but she had showed longevity last night. She lasted much longer than I thought she would. Still, I knew that I needed to tell her about my being a vampire. She needed to know soon. The entire fabric of our relationship depends on this news. Yet, I still cannot tell her the truth. I can't force myself to do it, so I lie here in silence, waiting patiently for her to wake up so that I can feed her more lies.

Everyone knows that lies are easier than the truth.

Just because I'm immortal doesn't mean that I don't have my faults.

"The tests I ran on your blood, something else showed up in them…" she choked out. "I wanted to tell you sooner, but I forgot. The tests showed…sh-showed…" she fell limp against the post. I trembled with rage as the fire finally consumed us. The crowd that had gathered around us was cheering. Little did they know how they would pay later. Oh yes, they would pay…

I shook my head suddenly. Why the hell did that come up? I trembled slightly as I remembered that night. More haunting memories, I seemed to be full of them. I watched as Amy slowly opened her eyes. She smiled when she saw me.

"Hey handsome," she murmured. "How'd you sleep?" I smirked.

"Like the dead." I said without thinking. I shifted my eyes away from her for a moment, but she didn't seem to notice.

"Well, that's good, I guess." She chuckled. I moved a stray piece of hair out of her face before I could stop myself. "Look, about last night," she began.

"Let's not talk about this right-"

"It was too fast." She said. I stopped myself and looked at her in disbelief.

" 'It' took all damn night! What was fast about it?" I demanded. She began to laugh. I couldn't find the humor in this situation. There is nothing funny about questioning a vampire's sex drive.

"No, I meant that it was only our first date. That's a little soon for this sort of thing, don't you think?" she asked. I think I might have blushed at this point, but I'm not sure.

"Oh. I really don't know. I think that if both people are willing to take the plunge, then it might be worth it. It sometimes works out like that." I said.

"You don't think any less of me? You don't think that I'm a whore or anything?" she asked. I shook my head.

"Nope. I hold you in the same regard as I did before." I paused for a moment. "Do you think that I'm a whore?" I asked, fake crying. She smiled.

"I don't think. I know that you're a whore." She said.

"That hurts me. That cut me really deep right here," I said, pointing to my chest.

"Ah, you'll get over it." she said, getting up.

"Are you so sure of that?" I asked. She sat there for a moment longer. Then she quickly got up and yanked the sheets up with her, leaving me with nothing to cover up with. "Hey!!" I shouted in mock outrage.

"See? You're already over the whore thing aren't you?" She yelled back as she grabbed her clothes and dashed to the bathroom.

"No, I'm still upset!" I hollered back. I laid there for another moment or two, then I decided to get up and just get dressed. I was pulling on my shoes when she re-emerged from the bathroom. I grabbed my t-shirt and tossed it on, and then I grabbed my keys.

"Are you really upset?" she asked. I smiled.

"No," I said. "I'm going to get some breakfast." I told her, kissing her on the cheek, which not only surprised her, but me as well.

"Okay, I'll see you in a few." She said, and I headed out the door. I had to tell her soon, before I got in over my head. Ah, who am I kidding? I'm already in over my head. I want to tell her, but I'm afraid of two main things. I'm afraid that she will hate me forever, and then either take her secret to the grave, since I'll disappear after that. Or, she'll tell everyone she can, and get me sent to a hospital before I could disappear. Which would result in test after test and people with little scopes and lights looking up my ass.

But then again, she could surprise me and love me even more for what I really am.

Either way, one thing is avoidable.

She is going to have her heart broken.

And that is the one thing that I don't want to see.

The one thing I'm afraid to see.

So, I put it off again, at least until after we eat.

I hope.
