I was going to finish it there but I decided against it. Well my friend decided against it. So here is the next chapter… hope you like it!
"Are you telling me you can see the future exactly how it is going to be?" I asked. She giggled and playfully punched my arm.
"No, silly. I can see what you want to do in the future. What you are deciding to do." She said. "They change. Just like your thoughts."
"They are subjective?" it came out more of a question than an affirmation.
"Yes." She said between giggles.
When she stopped laughing there was a deep silence in the room. We were in a cave she took me. It had a little light from the moon coming in that covered her features.
She looked lovely. So sweet and glorious; her smell was intoxicating.
She looked at me puzzled as why I was so silent. My thoughts were jumping. Could she see my future? What about my past?
"Can you see the past?" I asked all of the sudden. I didn't want her to think badly of me. If she was going to know that it would be through me.
"No, just the future." She said. "Why is there something about your past you don't want me to know?"
"Excuse me?" I asked. How did she know?
"Well, I do have a confession." She looked the other way avoiding me. "When I have a vision I see it like if I was there. But when I see you, I see the vision through your eyes." The last part was almost a whisper.
"What is that supposed to mean?" I asked.
"Well, I don't know about you, but I feel like I know you already." She said still very low. "But as far as I can tell about you is that you escape from something that I never saw. Also I could feel when I saw you a strange feeling. But I don't know what it is…"
I thought for a minute and I took a deliberated risk. "I can feel that." I said. She looked at my puzzled. "That feeling that you are talking about. I can feel what you feel." I said through my teeth. "I can feel and change that feeling." I added.
Her puzzled expression changed to a grin. "I know." She said. "I've known since I saw you hunt for the first time. I felt it too in my vision. It was breathtaking." The last part was almost a whisper and the grin was gone. Her back was facing me.
The feeling of the prey was the hardest I had to suffer. It was the thing I hated the most about being a vampire.
"How is it that you know?" she asked all of the sudden.
I took a breath and my body went rigid. I haven't realized I was leaning on to her. My face was inches away from the side of the face. I knew she could feel me but for some reason she haven't backed away and I was glad she hadn't.
There was something about this girl that was like any other. Her light and happiness clouded all my thoughts. I just wanted her to stay with me. But I knew that she couldn't because that's what we do; we never stay in one place.
"Maria used to call it a gift. One special one in many our kind have." I whispered pulling back a little. "a special one. I can feel and control emotions, everyone's emotions."
"How does that work and who's Maria?" she asked.
I sit down on a rock and exhale, even though I didn't have to. "It's a long story. It's from what I escaped." I confessed.
She chuckled. "We have the whole night or do you want to go to sleep?" she suggested hitting a rock and putting it like a pillow.
A laughed escaped my mouth and I froze. It was so long ago the last time I heard myself laugh. It was a strange noise to me.
"Take a sit, ma'am." I suggested to the rock next to mine. She danced her way to the rock and gestured me to continue.
There we sat; she was hearing my stories about war and Maria and didn't leave anything aside. She told me how she didn't remember anything but her life as a vampire. We talked and talked and by the end we ended outside the cave looking at the stars. My arms had found the way around her body and hers found my chest. We lay there for the rest of the night.
