Gothic Secrets Revealed
"watch it or you don't get to be best man" Alexander laughed, looking at Billy.
"w-what?" Billy boy asked, gaping at Alexander like a fish gasping for air above water. "I-I'm gonna b-be you-your best man?"
"Of course you are! Who else would I ask?" Alexander chuckled in response.
"Cool dude!" he yelled back, giving my fiancé a high five and laughing.
"Welcome to the family" my dad said, giving Alexander a typical man-hug, slapping his back a few times as my mum came up behind them and hugged them both, crying something like "oh my baby's all grown up!"
I felt incredibly embarrassed and completely the centre of attention but it didn't matter, I was engaged to Alexander, my knight of the night and nothing could ruin that for us.
As we sat down to enjoy our evening out, people came over throughout the night to congratulate us. Trevor's parents even went as far as to send over a bottle of champagne with their congratulations.
Throughout the meal I couldn't stop looking at my ring. The thin white gold ban contrasted against my pale skin brilliantly and the blood-red diamond shaped like a heart seemed like the perfect symbol of our love.
When we returned to my house later that evening, I had a sudden idea that I posed to Alexander.
"Can I ask something?" I said, looking into his smiling eyes.
"Of course you may" he replied, kissing my cheek tenderly before returning his stature, ready for my question.
"I want to tell my parents the truth about you. It doesn't feel right that we're going to be married and they don't know about you." I said, pleading with him to understand my qualm.
"That's not a question" he said, looking down at our entwined hands, "but I knew you would say it eventually. We will tell them." he looked into my eyes as he said the last part, fear evident in both his voice and his eyes.
"D-do you mean it? Really?" I knew in my heart that this was difficult for him. He never asked to be born as a vampire, it was one of those things of nature, but now I felt fear. Fear for him and our relationship.
"Come on,' he pulled my hand as he stood and began to walk into the kitchen where my parents were washing the dishes from breakfast.
"Mrs Madison, Mr Madison. I have something to say" he started, looking my parents straight in the face as he gripped my hand.
"Go ahead son," my dad answered, encouraging Alexander to continue, "we're family now, you can tell us anything."
"Thank you sir" Alexander said, lowering his gaze to the floor, "but I regret to inform you that I haven't been completely honest with you. I assure you that I love Raven and I would never harm her or anyone of hers and your kind"
"Alexander, you don't have to do this" I pleaded, feeling him tremble and knowing it was my fault felt like a thousand knives stabbing my heart.
"No Raven, I want to hear what he has to say" my dad said rather calmly, the expression on both my parents faces seemed calm and cool, almost like they already knew what he was going to say.
"Mrs Madison, Mr Madison, I am a vampire, I was born one and I always will be one" Alexander breathed in a firm voice, looking my father straight in the eyes.
"And your parents, are they too?" my mother asked, a smile gracing her pink Chanel covered lips.
"Yes, they are. My father changed my mother because they loved each other too much to lose one another to death. This is what Raven wishes me to do to her when we are married" Alexander kept his eyes glued on my father's, we were all silent.
"I knew it!" came a triumphant yell from the kitchen doorway. "I knew you were way cooler than you were letting on!" yelled Billyboy as he ran into the room and hugged Alexander.
"Thanks" Alexander chuckled, hugging my brother back as a brilliant smile spread across his face.
"Alexander," my mother said, a serious tone coating her voice, "we already knew. Well, we had a suspicion, but we're not afraid. We know that if you ever would have hurt us, you'd have done it before getting close to this family."
"Thank you, Mrs Madison. I hope this doesn't change the way you see me, especially when I'm with your amazing daughter" his comment made me blush from my toes to my hairline.
"Definitely not" my mother gushed, hurrying over to embrace Alexander, "we'd never be like that, especially not to someone as handsome and admirable as you." she smiled
"Alexander my boy, if changing Raven into someone like you is what my little girl wants then we have no objections. We'll just live in hope that it'll improve her attitude" my dad laughed as I aimed a kick at his shin.
"Yea dude, we'll keep your secret," Billy said, "I'm just surprised that Raven kept her big mouth shut so long!" he laughed.
I felt glad that the evening had gone so well. My family knew that my boyfriend was a vampire, I was now engaged to said boyfriend and life seemed perfect. I couldn't stop thinking about what our wedding would be like as Alexander and I took a midnight ride through Dullsville on his Harley.
As I stood outside my door and his soft lips brushed against mine, I knew this would only be the start of changes to come. But as of this moment, as I lay wake in bed listening to Kerrang radio on low, I welcome them all.
A/N: so I must have reviews!!!! If anyone wants to see a particular dillema or event to happen in this story, gimme a shout n I'll see if I can't just sneak it in for you.
