Hope this chapter is better. It's a bit longer than my usually chapters, but still short compared to others. I hope it makes up for how shit last chapter is.

So I told him, I told him about everything that had happened, since I had been marked. I talked for hours, him only interrupting, with the occasional question. Or the encouraging nod whenever I paused. I cried, sometimes, and when I did he held me rubbing my back soothingly. When I was finished we sat in silence, it wasn't awkward it was peaceful. I fell asleep with my head against his chest listening to his heartbeat.

I couldn't believe what had happened to Zoey, she had been so innocent and they had all used it against her. I wanted nothing more than to go down there and hurt Neferet for the pain she has caused her. But I knew I couldn't do that. I also knew that Zoey was worried about what I thought of her, but nothing has changed, I still love her, I always would, even if it took my forever I would make sure Zoey knew it too.
I pulled my arms tighter around Zoey, feeling her snuggle into me, I closed my eyes content to have her in my arms.

When I woke up I let my mind play over everything that had happened since I had returned here. I could hardly believe it had been only just more than a day. It felt like forever.
"Crap!" I exclaimed sitting up. I had forgotten to look after the new fledgling, first day on the job and I was already messing up. God this was going to be hard. Stark stirred beside me and opened his eyes.
"What has you cussing at this time of the morning?" He said sitting up.
"I-I can't do this, I al-already stuffed up and it hasn't even been t-t-t-two days." I sobbed, I wasn't sure why I was crying, but I was. He pulled me onto his chest and rubbed soothing circles into my back.
"What are you talking up, of course you can do this." I sniffled, but stoped sobbing.
"No I can't. I'm only a kid. I even forgot about the new fledging that I was suppose to greet yesterday, and I have to do a circle casting and a staff meeting. I don't know how to do a staff meeting." I was rambling now. "I haven't even finished school myself. What if I stuff it up, what if I ruin the-" he cut me off by placing one hand over my mouth, I scowled at him.
"Look just, relax, breath. You will be fine, we will help you, the professors will help you, we'll just call it learning on the job. As for the new fledging, that wasn't your fault you were a bit occupied with Neferet trying to kill you. Now I'm going to let you go now okay." I nodded, he took his hand away. "Good." He breathed.
"So what do I do?" I asked. He took a deep breath.
"I... Well, how about this. We go find out about the new fledgling, then call a staff meeting. After that we call an assembly and explain things the best we can." It wasn't much of a plan but it was good enough for me. "But before we do any of that, we shower, dress and eat." He finished. I nodded.
"Okay. Thank you." I kissed his chest. "I love you." I said before I could stop myself. That was the first time either one of us had said I love you to the other one. I looked up at him, slowly waiting for his reaction.
He was grinning widely. "I Love you too." I grinned back and him. Then he kissed me.
A warm feeling spread throughout my body and I felt a familiar sensation on my chest. When he pulled away I lifted my top and heard stark gasp, there right over my heart was a intricate heart shaped tattoo with a bow and arrow, with the letter J in the centre, Stark stroked it smiling. I lifted his shirt, to find a similar tattoo on his chest, in the centre of his there was a small tattoo of each of the elements surrounding a Z. I grinned and kissed it before kissing him again. Both hearts wer incomplete, I wondered why that was.
"I guess that means we're really meant to be." I whispered.
"There no guessing about it Zoey, I love you, with everything I am." I blushed.
"And I love you too, with my entire heart and soul."
"Well coming from someone who control's spirit that's definitely saying something." He joked; I shoved his shoulder and got out of bed.
"Come on, let's put that plan of yours into action." We showered – separately – got dressed.
After breakfast I txt Lenobia, asking her to come to my – that is so weird – office. She was there within minutes.
"Hello Zoey." She said. "Is everything okay?"
I smiled at her. "I think so. I just had a few questions. Is that okay?"
"Of course, whatever you need."
"Okay, first of all, did the new fledging arrive yet." She shook her head.
"No but she should be here today, all her information is in the folder to your left." She pointed to the manila folder on my desk, with the name Katherine Osborne printed on front. I nodded.
"Thank you. I was also wondering if you would help me call a staff meeting today, then I would like to have an assembly to inform the students of what has happened." She nodded.
"That's a good idea, the students are still confused and showing trust in them will help then understand the situation better." I nodded. "Is there anything else you would like to ask me?"
"One more, I was wondering if you knew anything about these types of marks. I gestured to Stark who came forward, lifting his shirt to show his tattoo. She gasped and looked at me. I pulled my top down slightly to show her mine. "Do you know what these mean?"
She nodded. "These are the tattoo's of twin souls." I looked at her, hoping she would continue. "It is said that once every hundred years, two souls are put on this earth that are destined to be with one another for ever and on their declaration of love, they will get marks over their heart symbolizing the love for the other. When this happens they will become inseparable, they will crave for one another constantly, as if there were thousands of miles separating them, even when in the same room and it will physically pain them to be separated. To take one away from another is like a death sentence for both of them." O.K. "It is a wonderful thing to find your other half, they will complete you and be whatever you need through-out your life, a friend, a protector and a lover all at the same time." I blushed slightly at the last one and looked up at Stark. I could feel everything Lenobia had said was true, right now I craved for his touch and even the thought of him leaving made me hurt.
"Thank you." I whispered, she stood up bowing.
"I will call the meeting for you, how long until you are ready?"
"Two hours?" I said it more like a question but she nodded and left.
"Are you upset?" I heard Stark ask from behind. Was he an idiot why would I be upset?
"No of course not, why would I be upset?" I turned to face him.
He shrugged, "I just, thought, well that maybe you thought you were being forced into it, like you didn't get a choice if it was destined." He trailed of and I couldn't help but giggle at him.
"No silly, this just means, that I we were right. Plus weren't you listening, it only happens once they declare their love for each other, just like we did, by choice." I emphasized. "Plus this just mean everyone else will know you are mine." I felt very possessive of him.
"As you are mine" he growled pulling me against him. "I love you my Zoey."
"As I love you my Stark." I grinned; I really liked the sound of that.

Plus this just means everyone will know you are mine." I felt her possessiveness of me and I loved it, I grinned so wide I thought my cheeks would crack.
"As you are mine." I growled pulled her against me, because she was mine and no one else's. "I love you my Zoey."
"As I love you my Stark." She grinned. Oh god, is this what Lenboia meant when she said, we would crave for each other, 'cause I was certainly craving for her now.
I leant down and kissed her, she immediately tangled her hands through my hair, I moaned into her mouth and she took the opportunity to connect my tongue with hers. Oh good she tasted fantastic, better than anything else in the world. I couldn't even compare it to anything. She pushed me backwards until I was up against the wall. I pulled her tighter up against me, but it still wasn't close enough.
I turned us around pushing her up against the wall, using the wall for support she wrapped her legs around my waist pulling me closer still. I placed my hands under her ass for support. We had yet to do anything further that make out and I was wondering if we were going to do it. Neither of us were virgins, so it's not like it would be our first times or anything, but it was still special and I wanted to make sure we were both ready before we took that step.
"Zoey," I gasped pulling away from her. She just nodded, I pulled us away from the door and she untangled her legs from my waist. "Are you sure?"
"Do I look sure?" She asked, taking my hand and pulling me from the office quickly. I nodded hurriedly and followed her like a lost puppy.
When we got to the room she locked the door, then started walking me backwards towards the bed. My legs hit the bed frame and I fell back onto the bed with a huff. She kissed me and I kissed her back.
"I love you Zoey redbird." I whispered, when we pulled away for air.
"I love you James." She whispered back. She sounded so sexy, I moaned and attacked her, neck, kiss, sucking and lightly biting it, causing her to moan and shudder with pleasure.
We continued to move in sync, I never realised any part of me was missing until I found Zoey, but now that I had been with her I felt like I would die without her. We both climaxed, jumping over the edge together, screaming each other's names.
I rolled off Zoey and looked down at her to see her heart tattoo complete. I grinned at her, watching as her breathing returned to normal. She had a grin, the same one that I'm pretty sure was on mine.
"That was..." She trailed off at a loss for words.
"I know... I feel like I'm complete now." I finished still smiling at her.
"Exactly." She huffed.
"And look," I said, stroking her now complete heart. She looked at it, her smiling growing even wider.
"Meant to be." She whispered.
"Meant to be." I agreed.
TA DA! So come one tell me how it was! Do you think I redeemed it enough to make it worthy of completion. Or should I just stop there...........Please tell me!!!!!!
I would love if I could get five reviews for this chapter..............
