I slept very little that night, all the vampire information i've acquired buzzing in my head. Who is Edgeworth's mate? It can't be me, can it? Sure he kissed me, but that kiss meant nothing. It was too short to mean otherwise plus, I'm not gay. So let's cross out 'me' from the list of possible mates, shall we? Alright, then.
He was given a choice to be in any House he wanted. But he chose Slytherin. This says that his mate is most likely in Slytherin, unless he wants to create a love/hate relationship with a Gryffindor. He must be trying to spend more time and get closer to his mate (and the fact that we share a room means NOTHING!). Also the fact that he's nineteen and is in fifth year suggests that his mate is also a fifth year. The fact that he's gay also points out that his mate is most likely a guy and also gay. These are, of course, all theories if he actually is a vampire.
---------------------
I spent the rest of the day observing Edgeworth. I was on the lookout for anyone who might be recieving any special treatment from him. I found nothing although I did find the look on Pansy's face rather funny when she failed to 'accidently' brush hands with Edgeworth at breakfast.
And now I sit, (with no results, mind you) on the black leather loveseat, staring into the bouncing flames in the fireplae to gather my thoughts. Is Edgeworth really a vampire? Why am I tyring so hard to find a mate for a vampire who I'm not even sure IS a vampire? Why am I so obsessed with trying to figure out who Edgeworth is? Why--
"Dracooooo! I have a surprise for you!"
"GAH!!" I shout in suprise and nearly jump a foot out of my seat. I hear him laugh as he flops down besides me.
"Here you go!" he was absolutely beaming as he handed me a small, rectangle wrapped in purple paper with a silver bow on top.
"Uhmm. . . thanks . ." I took the rectangle and undid the neat, little, silver bow. "Chocolates?" I ask, looking down into the box. The label says 'Godiva'. "I've never heard of this brand before." I point out.
"I'm not suprised. My parents sent it to me from human world."
"Human?" Why did he say human? Wizards and witches may be magical, but we are still human. Maybe he ment muggle?
"Did I say that? I meant muggle. Back where I come from, we say human." Edgeworth said quickly, covering up his mistake. "Well go ahead, try a piece."
Muggle chocolate. . . well, it IS chocolate, isn't it? I unwrapped the bar of cocoa goodness and broke a piece off with my teeth.
SO BLOODY GOOOOOD!
So those muggles ARE good for something after all!
The chocolate practically melts in my mouth. I take another bite from the bar and roll the piece around in my mouth, savoring the taste. "This chocolate. . . . it's amazing!"
"I'm glad you like it." Edgeworht laughed. "I can get it anytime I want so just let me know when you want more, OK?"
I just nodded, as my mouth was full of chocolate. After finishing the bar, I looked to Edgeworth to find that he wasn't there. I looked around until I saw him come out of the new curtain/door holding two mugs. "I've had a kitchen put in so you won't have to worry about being late for breakfast. Here is some tea."
I took a mug from him and took a small sip. I was grateful that the tea didn't completely wash away the taste of the chocolate. but the bitter taste of the tea brought back my bitter thoughts about Edgeworth. "Edgeworth, can I ask you a question?"
He put his tea down on the table and gave me a concerned look. "Oh sure, Draco, anything."
"And do you promise to tell me the truth, no matter what?"
He nodded.
I took a deep breath, "Are. . . are you a vampire?"
Then, with all seriousness, Edgeworth answered, "Yes."
Well, that was easy enough. Maybe I can push this converstation a bit further. . .
"Are you, by any chance, in search of a mate?"
Edgeworth flashed me a smile. "I was, but now I found him."
Him . . .could it be. . . . ? Well, there's no harm in asking. . . .
"Am. . . am I your mate?"
"Yes."
And then, darkness took over.
