Okay guys, this is the last chapter I'm writing for today. I'm getting really tired, so I'll give this my best shot. Review my loves!- Arietty
Josef sat on the kitchen counter, drinking from his glass of blood. He had been up all night, waiting for Beth to wake up. It wasn't easy looking after a human, especially since he was a vampire.
Josef's shirt was off; he had gotten hot with it on. His grey sweatpants were low on his waist, and his boxers were showing (there you go, fangirls!). He was typing on his laptop, researching vampire misconceptions. It was funny to go on places that showed way to kill a vampire. Some offered more tips, others, ridiculed it. Josef personally thought it was hilarious.
He heard a soft groan from the living room, and his eyes shot up to his couch. Beth was stretching awake, and grasping her side in sudden pain. Josef sighed, and typed on his computer. Beth got up, and turned when she heard the pattering of fingers on the keyboard. She saw Josef, and instantly started crying out.
"Oh, Josef!" Beth cried, running over to him. Josef hopped down from the kitchen counter and opened his arms for her to run in. He tightly wound his arms around her, and kissed the top of her head.
"Josef, I'm so sorry! I can't believe I did that! I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry..." She trailed, her voice muffled in Josef's bared chest. Josef shushed her, and moved her back and forth in a rhythm. She closed her eyes, and sighed.
"I want to stay here forever." Beth muttered, and Josef smiled.
"Be my guest, I'm in no hurry to leave." He hinted, and Beth looked up at him. Their eyes met, and he looked away awkwardly.
"By any chance, did you happen to miss what I said before?" He asked, hoping she did. Beth shook her head.
"I remember." She said, and Josef looked away embarrassedly. Beth unwrapped her arms from Josef's and reached for his face. She tilted down, so he was looking straight at her.
"I don't care that you cried, Josef. I think I fell more in love with you when I saw it." She said and he stared down at her softly. She kissed him, and he brought his hands to her face.
"Who would've known we'd fall in love in four days?" He said, looking at the calendar. Josef looked back at Beth. "Two more days in paradise." He chanted, and rested his head on top of Beth's, still swaying her in his arms. They stayed that way for a few minutes, until Beth looked up.
"How about we make the best of it?" She said, obvious seduction in her tone. Josef quirked an eyebrow and she kissed his neck lovingly. Josef got the message.
"Ok, but how about my room this time?" He asked, as Beth started wrapping her arms around his neck.
"In the freezer?" She asked, confused. Josef rolled his eyes.
"No, I have a bed up there, smart one." He said, and she whacked him playfully. He scooped her up once again, and carried her up the stairs, kissing her while he did so. Suddenly, the phone rang, and Josef groaned.
"Go get ready. I'll answer it." He let her down, and she climbed another stair, and then kissed him again. He put his hands on her waist, and made it last. Then, he pulled away and headed down the stairs.
Josef picked up the phone, and said, "Hello?" And angry voice responded to him.
"So, have you been doing your job?" Mick's voice came through the phone. Josef felt his stomach drop- Mick knew. He tried to think of a bunch of excuses in his head, until Mick spoke again.
"Yeah, I know about the fire thing." Josef sighed in relief, and then rolled his eyes.
"Relax, Mick, everyone got out safely. Well, except for that guy I murdered, but he doesn't really count." Josef snickered at his own remark. Mick growled into the phone.
"Josef, I told you to protect Beth, not send her off to go in burning buildings! What's the matter with you?" If only you knew. Josef thought venomously, but put on a calm voice.
"I am protecting Beth; to be frank, I don't think she's ever felt safer in her life." He said, and heard Beth coming down the stairs. He turned, and she had on the naughtiest clothing. She had obviously been snooping through Josef's not so "secret" dress trunk. Josef's mouth watered and he wanted to cut it short with Mick.
"Yeah, um, listen, Mick." Beth stopped on the stairs. "Mick?" She mouthed, and Josef waved his hand to quiet her.
"Why don't you not worry your little head about Beth, and leave the 400 year old vampire to take care of her, okay?" He said maliciously, smirking to himself. Mick sighed on the other line.
"Okay, Josef, sorry. I trust you, you know." Mick said, and Josef's inside squirmed with guilt. He felt immensely and intensely guilty.
"Bye, Mick." Josef said, and shut the phone. He put it down on the table, and rested his hands on it. Beth came down the stairs, and pressed her hands on Josef's back.
"This is wrong." Josef whispered, and Beth shook her head.
"Love is not wrong." She argued, kissing his skin. Josef slid his head onto the marble counter, his arms over his head. Beth hugged him around the middle, and placed her face on his back.
"You don't understand; Mick is my best friend. I've lied to him, and betrayed him. I am a terrible person." Josef concluded, banging his head lightly on the table. Beth let go of him, and took a step back.
"Josef, look at me." She said. Josef didn't move. She stepped forward, and put a hand on Josef's shoulder. "I don't ever want to hear that coming out of you. You're a wonderful person; it was Mick's fault for leaving you with me. I'm the bad one." This put life into Josef. He looked up at her incredulously.
"You're the bad one? You're a human who got seduced by a vampire." Beth felt sudden anger.
"Josef, I love you! I did not get seduced! I know in my heart that I love you, and I will never stop!" She cried, and walked away from him, leaning against the wall. Josef straightened, and looked at her. He walked over to her, and placed his hands on her waist.
"Do you mean that?" Josef asked her. Beth turned to him, looking at him as if he was crazy.
"Of course!" She cried out, and with that, she grabbed Josef's head roughly and kissed him on the lips. Josef grabbed her tightly and kissed her back, pushing her to the couch. He crawled on top of her, and kissed her throat. Then, she pushed him up, and they were both sitting on the couch, Beth looking at Josef seriously, and Josef looking at her hungrily. Beth stuck her throat out, and closed her eyes. Josef shook his head.
"No, I am not biting you again." He said flatly, and Beth looked at him. She wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed him on the lips. She then pulled back, and stuck out her throat again.
Josef couldn't resist. He stroked the skin, and his fangs pushed out of his gums as his eyes gleamed. Beth grabbed his face and kissed him again, and he kissed her back roughly, and then shoved her straight down.
"Don't be afraid." He muttered, and leaned down and sank his teeth into her skin. Beth winced, but placed her hand on his back, encouraging him.
Suddenly, the door swung open, and Beth looked over and gasped. She poked Josef, and he reluctantly pulled back, his eyes still it up, blood dripping down his chin. He looked towards the door, and saw a very angry Mick St. John standing in the doorway.
Haha, I know, I'm so evil!! Well, if you really want me to continue tonight (probably only one more chapter), then review! I might not have time though, so review quickly!
