Jez101: That's okay. You reviewed so that's made me happy. I think a lot of girls are afraid of spiders, dunno why though. I never did find that one in my room, maybe it went away? Thanks for the review, and hope you like this chapter?
Asli28: Oh my God! You like spiders? I hate them! They're creepy and crawly and…Urgh! Well, each to their own. Two of my friends like spiders, I don't they freak me out. Anyways, thanks for the review, and hope you like this chapter?
Chronic Sarcasm: You're welcome. I'm gonna try to cut down on the lyrics from now on, there are non in this chapter. Yes, I'd rather Nilsson be soulmates with a human red head than a blonde witch. :P LOL! I didn't get to sleep until after four in the morning when I found that spider, dunno where it is. Well, I just made it so Nilsson would crack under the longing of not having a soulmate. Poor Nilsson! Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah:P I have mismatched eyes. My eyes have been weird. I wasn't born with mismatched eyes they went this way. I agree, people don't know a good fanfic if it bit them on the arse! Thanks for the review, hope you like this chapter?
Bold italic is Nilsson's mind and italic is Judith's mind. That's all I'm saying. I'm sick, so sorry if this is pathetic.
Part 4.
What the hell is going on? Judith thinks. She is in a strange dark place…it's not pitch dark exactly; it looks more like night time with the full moon out. The strange place looks black and silver.
It's the Soulmate Principal. It is Nilsson's voice, but Judith doesn't hear it in her ears, but in her mind.
What's that? Judith is clearly befuddled. Nilsson gets a mental image of a puzzled expression.
It's this…what we're feeling. Nilsson answers.
But what is it? Judith's still confused.
It's the idea that everyone has a soulmate. The other half of themselves, the one person destined to spend a lifetime with you. We're soulmates. Nilsson explains more better for her.
Judith walks around the strange place she's in. This place is a bit dark but for some unknown reason, Judith feels strangely comfortable.
Where I am?
You're in my mind. Judith I don't want you to see what's in there. Nilsson sounds desperate. It sounds like he does want her to see in his mind, but he's ashamed of what he's done, and what he is.
Why? What's wrong? At these words, something comes floating towards her. As she looks at it, it opens up, and Judith finds out what Nilsson is.
You're a vampire? Judith is surprised, but Nilsson can feel through the soulmate link that she's not afraid.
Of course I'm not afraid. Why would I be? These words shock him. He gives her a mental grin and Judith grins back. She explores some more of Nilsson's mind, and she sees things that he is ashamed of. Apparently Thierry is a vampire who made a promise to his soulmate Hannah, that he'd never kill again, and he has lived up to that promise. Nilsson has been the one to kill those that Thierry wanted eliminated. Although Nilsson hasn't killed a human deliberately. He as killed a few humans due to bloodlust. But they were all accidental, though Nilsson is still ashamed to have done it.
Why aren't you afraid of vampires? Nilsson asks, but instead of Judith answering, his question goes searching on its own accord and he soon finds out the answer. The reason why Judith is not afraid of vampires is because she's obsessed with them, and has been for most of her life.
I just never knew that vampires existed before. Judith answers with a mental shrug.
What made you obsessed with vampires in the first place? Nilsson can't help but laugh, he is still reeling in the discovery of his soulmate.
I have no idea. My favourite muppet from Sesame Street has always been the Count. He used to make me laugh as a kid. But Sesame Street isn't on anymore in Northern Ireland. Nilsson is promptly embarrassed, here he thought that Judith was from Ireland, isn't she's from Northern Ireland.
Don't be embarrassed! I'm still from Ireland, just not the Republic of Ireland.
So that's why you're accent isn't Irish? Nilsson asks, still a little embarrassed.
Exactly, my accent is actually Scots Irish. Apparently. Judith explains.
Are you from Scotland then? Nilsson asks, sounding a little puzzled.
My ancestors were from Scotland. Apparently the Blair's were kicked out of Scotland for sheep stealing…as long as they weren't doing anything else with those sheep! Poor sheep. Nilsson bursts out laughing, and he can't help but think that his soulmate has a sense of humor.
Of course I have a sense of humor! And I'm also crazy…Ooops! Shouldn't have told you that. Nilsson starts to break down the barriers that Judith has now put up in her mind; he's trying to figure out why she's done that.
I don't want you to get close to me.
Why not? I want to see your mind.
Tough! Go away!
Judith? Let me in?
Not by the hair on my chiny chin chin! Not that I have noticeable hair on my chin, but still.
Why won't you let me in?
I don't like people getting close to me!
And why not?
Because people who get close to me, end up backstabbing. That's why I don't make best friends! Now go away!
Alright, I'll leave. Nilsson turns away to leave Judith's mind completely.
No! Don't leave! I like you here in my mind. Nilsson turns back, but he's sure that he wouldn't be able to leave the comforts of Judith's mind, even if he wanted to. Nilsson puts his hand up to the barrier and it pops like a soap bubble under his touch.
Don't mean to intrude, but I want to know why you're insisting on keeping me out of here! Nilsson walks around in this new part of Judith's mind. He sees a little screen and walks up to it. As he does, the screen becomes larger until it surrounds him completely.
He sees a boy, about eighteen or nineteen, slightly shorter than Thierry, with spiky black hair and blue eyes. He is holding Judith and showering her with kisses. Nilsson hears the boy tell Judith that he loves her.
The scene changes and Nilsson is standing in a small kitchen with Judith and the tall boy. Nilsson hears the boy telling Judith that he never loved her, that it was a lie. He only thought of Judith as a friend. Nilsson literally sees Judith's heart shattering, and rushes to hold her, but instead, his arms go right through her, as though she's a ghost.
Nilsson feels the anger welling up inside the real Judith, and sees a huge hand cutting up the memory into shreds. The memory vanishes like smoke.
I never want to see that memory again! Or any of the memories with that dickhead in it! Judith's voice has suppressed anger behind it. Nilsson now knows who the tall boy was; he was Judith's ex-boyfriend.
Stupid God dammed fucktard! He dumped me for God only knows the real reason behind it! Every time I asked him why, it was a different excuse! He only thought of me as a friend, he never liked me, I made him depressed, I was too clingy! How the fuck could I have been clingy to that bastard if I only got to see him at the weekends! I believe he was cheating on me!
And how do you know that? Nilsson tries his best to tread lightly, knowing that Judith is on the verge of exploding.
Because he spent five days at a friend's house, and this friend happened to be female, all because she "fractured" her leg in a car accident. Yeah, and my arse plays a banjo! So what does that tell you? He fancied her, and she fancied him. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what's been going on!
And you don't have a boyfriend right now?
No, He was the first and last. I had my first kiss at seventeen and my first and last boyfriend at eighteen. That was seventeen months ago! I'm nearing twenty and I've only had one boyfriend!
You're nineteen?Nilsson's eyebrows get lost in his immaculate ponytail.
Yeah, why how old did you think I was? Judith's mental voice calms down quite a lot.
To be honest, I only thought you were around sixteen or seventeen,
Yeah, I get that a lot. But no, I'm nineteen. I feel so old!
Try being nearly two hundred, and then you'll feel old. At this both Judith and Nilsson laugh.
I think I'm going to lie having a soulmate.
It's about time I found you. I was going insane around the other soulmate couples.
That's understandable.
Judith and Nilsson spend a long time in each other's minds. Eventually they reluctantly pull apart, and pull back to look at each other. They don't say a word.
Judith reaches up and takes Nilsson's sunglasses off and stares into his chocolate brown eyes. Neither knows who moved first, but soon they are in each other's arms, and Nilsson leans down slightly and kisses Judith, who responds immediately.
A/N: Sorry if this was too short, or too stupid, I'm not well. I've been sick since Saturday, so you'll forgive me if this chapter sucks. I'll improve on the next one. Seeing as I'm mean, I'll tell you guys in the last chapter of this who the real Judith Blair is. Only Nat knows. Don't tell anyone though, sure you won't Nat? I'd have made this chapter longer, but my wrist is killing me.
