A/N: Look an update finally! Lol sorry this took longer than I intended hopefully you guys won't have to wait as long for the next chapter. Enjoy!

She used to place her pretty arms about my neck, draw me to her, and laying her cheek to mine, murmur with her lips near my ear, "Dearest, your little heart is wounded; think me not cruel because I obey the irresistible law of my strength and weakness; if your dear heart is wounded, my wild heart bleeds with yours. In the rapture of my enormous humiliation I live in your warm life, and you shall die—die, sweetly die—into mine.

"Stupid." I murmured out loud as I read. Clearly if someone is saying you'll die in their love than maybe you shouldn't be loving on them.

I looked over at Laura who was quietly working on something at her desk and I had the urge to pull her to the bed but my little human has been acting strange lately.

Distant.

She hasn't been sleeping with me anymore, she goes to bed early, and she doesn't even nag at me anymore.

Maybe her and Danny are hitting it off and I'm just being placed on the back burner.

Maybe.

I knew I wasn't good enough for her..but I deserve some sort of explanation or at least the truth. I was really starting to enjoy how close we were becoming and I thought maybe she felt the same way I did.

Maybe I was wrong.

I watched as she ran her fingers through her hair in a stressed out manner as she tapped her pencil on her desk.

"Tap that pencil any harder and you'll break the desk cupcake." I said standing up and looking over her shoulder. She glanced up at me and did some sort of nervous laugh that made my eyebrows raise.

God she's acting weird.

I decided to play the ground and act normal hoping she'd stop being like this and come cuddle with me and let me be consumed in her. Let me wrap my arms around her, feel her heart accelerate, drown in the scent of her hair, but most importantly be my quirky weirdo.

"Why don't you take a break?" I said pulling her out of her chair and towards my bed.

"It's uh fine Carm I just really want to study for my history exam." She pulled away and retreated back to her desk as I frowned.

For a second there it looked like she was holding herself back. Like she really wanted to come lay with me but something convinced her otherwise.

I laid back down and sighed picking my book back up but looking over at Laura who now had her head in her hands resting on the desk. I knew something was really bugging her, she wasn't just stressing over a history exam. It's more than that but what could it be?

And that's when an idea hit me.

I got up and went to the fridge grabbing a few sodas, a bag of chips, and some of the clothes from next to my bed.

I threw the clothes on her bed and then dumped the bag of chips on the floor and went into the bathroom and poured the sodas in the toilet leaving all the things for Laura to find and hopefully blow up about.

That'll get a reaction out of her now all I had to do was wait.

In no time she had to get up and go to the bathroom, I watched as she got up from her desk and made her way to the bathroom.

Three.

Two.

One.

"CARM! What the hell is this?!" That's what I call success.

She came storming out of the bathroom her head might have well been on fire.

"Soda in the toilet? Who does that? And why are there chips all over the floor? Why can't you keep anything clean I swear you do this crap on purpose." Oh you have no idea cupcake.

I just smiled and watched as her expression got even more disgruntled and well quite cute. Let me tell you an angry frustrated Laura Hollis is so attractive I might as well just melt, but I can't forget the task at hand.

"And now you just smile about it?!"

"Yes, something you should try doing." She gave me a confused look.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Really buttercup? For the last couple of days your face might as well be a permanent frown. Now what's up with you?" I asked and she shook her head.

"Nothing is up I've just been stressed about this history exam you know school has been tough lately."

"Bullshit Laur. That's bullshit you and I both know it. Now you have three seconds to tell me what's up or I'll make you tell me." Yeah I was being a little forceful but damn I'd give anything to have my weirdo back.

She paused for a second like she was searching for the right words.

"Fine..but it's stupid." She said giving up and sitting next to me.

"I'm sure it can't be that stupid since it's been bothering you so much now spill the beans cupcake." I placed me hand on her knee and it was like my touch made her relax, she was definitely less tense.

"I uh really it's stupid Carm." She stammered looking down at her hands.

"Not everything that bothers you is stupid Laura." She looked into my eyes and ran her nervous hands through her hair.

"Idontjustwanttobeanotheroneofyourstudybuddies." She said so fast I barely knew what she said.

"Now I may be a vampire but not even I knew what you just said now again but slower." I said in a soothing voice.

She took a deep breath.

"I don't just want to be another one of your study buddies." She said slowly but with her eyes shut.

Wow does she really think that's what she is?

Oh is she so so wrong.

This girl has made me open up, smile, laugh, tingle, made me watch crappy movies, and damn I swear my heart has beaten because of her.

I laughed.

"Oh what am I going to do with you cupcake?" I caressed her cheek with my thumb looking into her beautiful eyes. "You have no clue how much more you are than some random study buddy. Believe that." I said assuringly.

"I just..I wasn't sure." She took my hand from her cheek and intertwined our fingers.

"Well now you should be sure. Because Laura you are wayyy more important to me than you think."

"You're important to me too Carm. Very." She stated smiling nervously.

My heart pounded when she said that I swear.

An assuring silence fell upon us. Our fingers still intertwined I looked deeply into her eyes, the urge to meet her lips with mine getting really tempting. I glanced down at her lips and watched as she smiled.

Damn that smile. I'd do anything for it.

"There's that smile I've been looking for."

We decided to watch a movie and let me tell you the moment she slipped into my bed and rested her body against mine I didn't hesitate to wrap my arms around her.

We didn't really pay attention to the movie, just each other which is why I don't understand why we even watch these things.

She was facing me my arms were around her waist her head was against my shoulder.

"I can't believe that was what was bothering you, you weirdo." I teased her.

"Well I can't believe you trashed our room just to find out you weirdo." I laughed and pulled her tighter against me.

"I knew it'd drive you crazy."

"That's not the only thing that drives me crazy." She said flirtatiously.

Was Laura coming on to me?

Wow well what do you know.

"Hmm keeping talking like that and I think we'll both go crazy." I ran my fingers through her hair.

To be honest I wanted to kiss her more than ever but I was nervous. What if I kissed her and she didn't like it or she didn't want me to?

She bit her lip, pushing her body against mine and placing her arms behind my neck.

"I think I might already be crazy." She said and for a second I was confused but then her lips were on mine.

Laura was kissing me.

Laura made the first move.

Wow.

I kissed her back our lips moving slowly at first, little pecks on the lips but suddenly Laura deepened the kiss. Passionately holding on to me slipping her tongue in my mouth as I ran my hands down her back. Her hands were on either side of my face holding me in place as she moved her head to the side kissing me some more. Our eyes were both shut in our moment of passion. I still couldn't believe Laura had the courage to make the first move. This girl is just full of surprises.

I pecked her lips a few more times before looking into her eyes. Her face was flushed red and she had a shy look on her face.

"Well look at you full of surprises." I said as I smiled kissing her cheek.

"What can I say? I gotta keep you on your toes some how." She shrugged with a smug look on her face.

Yeah a smug look. Laura being smug. This girl can't get any cuter.

"Well feel free to keep me on my toes anytime." I said pecking her lips which I believe I going to be a new hobby of mine.

"Oh I plan on it."
