Chapter 10.

Please review.

Sasuke's POV.

"Sasuke, do you think you could ever love me?"

The question caught me off guard. I wasn't quite sure how to react. I was starting to get angry, I could feel all my emotions shifting as I stared down at her, the spot where I was laying beside her.

"Why?!" I snapped at her.

She looked at me oddly before shaking her head and rising to her feet to meet me.

"Let me guess, this date was or is that vampire ego of yours too inflated to handle this simple question I had asked?" she asked annoyed, folding her arms.

I could tell by her stance and her eyes that she wasn't afraid of me in the current moment. I needed to fix that. This damn human needed to know her place whether I fell in love with her or not she would always be at the bottom of the chain.

"Listen here, you pathetic human. I was fine until you had to ask that question. Why can't you just take in the small nice gestures, why do you always ask more of me? You ungrateful brat!" My fangs were beginning to protrude from my upper lip and I watched as she stepped closer to me.

I was frozen in place in a slight daze.

What was this damn girl doing?

I watched as her crimson red eyes met my charcoal black ones and she pressed her left index finger to one of my fangs. I didn't step back, I didn't move an inch. I stayed still as I possibly could, I felt my fang pierce her small finger and she pulled it back slowly looking at the blood, watching it drip. I felt my eyes turned into the sharingan and I looked at her.

She was determined to stand still, she slowly slide red hair from her right shoulder, her neck became bare.

"I want you to bite me." she spoke softly.

I didn't know what this girl was thinking. She wanted me to drink from her?

"No." I sputtered.

I never choked on my words what was this damn girl doing to me?

"You don't know what you're asking." I finally got out reaching for her upper left arm which I held onto tightly. She watched me with curious eyes.

"So you can take it when I don't want you to, but you can't accept it when I finally offer it to you. Who is being the ungrateful now?" she challenged me and look of defeat was clear on my face.

"Why?" I finally asked pointing to her neck, my fangs still out.

"Because, I want you to know what it's like when I allow you to."

I narrowed my eyes trying to pay attention to her breathing. Her mind was clear and there was no fear present.

I didn't think twice before pulling her to me and kissing her lips roughly. She was dazed for a moment before continuing the kiss. Once she was breathing heavily, I left her lips and let my fangs graze her jaw line, trailing kisses. I let my tongue slip over the veins where I intended to bite. Without asking if she was ready, I bit into her. I held her tightly with my arms wrapped around her securely. Her hands found it's way to my hair and she tugged softly. Her blood was so good, it made it's way down my throat.

"S-sasuke... I'm feeling dizzy." she whispered.

That was my cue to and I let my fangs pull out slowly, causing little to no pain. She held onto me softly and rested her head against my chest. My eyes turned back to charcoal black.

"No sleeping." I said, softly to her before carrying her bridal style into the house.

I brought her up the spiral staircase and to the bedroom I let her sit on the couch before I walked away.

"Sasuke!" she called out before I shut the bedroom door.

I didn't listen to her. I just wanted some time to think about what had happened.

Karin's POV.

I laid on the couch not wanting to move. The events flowed in my mind over and over. I didn't know what came over me or why I wanted him to him to bite me. I got up and walked over to the bathroom and decided to bandage my bite marks. I put my long straight hair in a mid ponytail and left my bangs on my forehead. I slipped on a black hooded sweat shirt and took my seat at the couch once more.

After Sasuke bit me I felt like I needed to sleep for hours, now I felt wide awake. I was even hungry, but I didn't want to leave the room just yet. I felt I should give Sasuke a little more time to himself first.

I started reading a book from the shelf quickly before my thoughts came back. It had only been a mere few weeks that I had been here. I guess once you lived with someone it was easier to get to know them, to fall for them. As much as I knew it was a bad idea and I didn't want to, I had fallen for Sasuke, and I wanted him to fall for me, too.

My fingers lightly tapped over the bandage over my neck and I sighed. It really didn't hurt at all. All the kissing before hand made it tolerable. Perhaps he wasn't so hungry this time and that's why it didn't really hurt, there was no urgency for my blood.

Sometime later, I looked at the alarm clock and noticed it was practically midnight. I was starving now and I decided despite what Sasuke wanted that I would go to the kitchen and get something to eat. I put my book down and left the couch. I sat up and surprised that all the dizziness had finally subsided.

I walked down the stairs quietly not wanting to disturb a certain vampire. I was feeling slightly uneasy as I walked into the dark kitchen. The large wall sized glass windows allowed me to look into the dark forest that surrounded the house. Normally, I would say it was beautiful but at the moment in time it reminded me of a horror movie.

I shuddered at the thought. I lived with a vampire, once that randomly hated me and yet I was a little afraid of some theory in my head. I almost laughed out loud at the irony of it all. Once I made it to the kitchen I stopped at the island in the middle. I heard sounds of footsteps and I gulped. I looked around in the dark, with no luck of finding anything, let alone the stupid light switch.

"Sasuke?" I slowly called out.

I received no reply, I only heard faint noises once more. I rolled my eyes in annoyance at my loud thumping heart. How could I be scared of the dark? I was 17 for crying out loud. My heart continued to thump in my chest as I let my hand grip the counter top.

I tried to listened for the sound but nothing. A pair of arms snaked themselves around my waist and a soft voice whispered in my ear.

"Why are you so scared my cute tomato?"

I rolled my eyes at his voice, his breath rolled against my right cheek. I turned and he held me between him and the counter. I looked up into his eyes

"Where did you come from?" my whispered came out scattered due to how close he was.

"I was originally outside, I came in a little while ago."

I looked down but then his left hand gently grabbed my chin making look up at him.

"What?" I whispered slowly.

"Your heart is beating rapidly in your chest and your breathing is raspy... is everything alright?"

The look of concern on his face allowed me to blush and I was thankful that it was dark in the room.

"I'm fine, you're just soo-" my words were cut off as he studied my neck.

"Still thirsty?" I asked.

He shook his head examining the badge. "No, you did a good job covering it."

I nodded slowly. I allowed my hands to fall upon his chest and I was a little nervous as he watched me.

"I-I just." What was wrong with me? Why did he make me stutter? Why couldn't I just a coherent sentence? He just let his left finger trail amongst my lips and I looked at his charcoal eyes.

"Don't think, just do."

I didn't know what he was referring to, just as I was about to move he held onto me to sit and forced me to sit atop of the counter, soon he was standing between my legs with his hands wrapped around me. I was practically his height now.

"Do it my tomato." he whispered watching me.

I felt awkward before I just wished the nerves away and allowed my hands to wrap around his neck, I felt my nose touch his carefully then our lips danced fluidly. Once I pulled away he still stayed close to me. He nuzzled his face into the right side of my neck and I felt myself holding onto him.

"You smell so good." he complimented me.

I smiled more to myself than to him and nodded my head.

"You know, I was a little nervous to kiss you."

This time he lifted his head back to my face and kissed my lips gently.

"Why?" he asked breathlessly.

"I don't know, you make me nervous." I said softly.

He didn't say anything just watched me. "I didn't know how to answer your question earlier... the one about love... you caught me off guard."

"I never thought to even like you, but that happened. So who knows, I guess I could always manage to fall in love with you..."

After those words I had nothing left to say. I just rested my head against his shoulder and took the moment in. After all, when it came to Sasuke, you didn't know how long it would be until he would snap again.

I felt his left hand softly rubbing my back, trying to soothe me. It was so relaxing.
