[Connor's POV
After we had stopped kissing, some amazing kisses those were I might add, I moved over and lay beside her. She had fallen asleep, so I watched her, her chest moving up and down with her breathing. She really is amazing. God, how I missed her during those three years of being away from her. While lying there, watching her, it dawned on me that I truly am completely in love with her. I always knew that I loved her, but thinking of it now, I never want to be away from her again. I do want to spend the rest of eternity with her. So, maybe when she's ready, I will turn her. If that's really what she wants, but I think I might wait until she's eighteen. Maybe I will change her on her eighteenth birthday. She stirred, so I took my hand and gently put my fingers through her hair. My, what amazing hair she has, so soft, and what a beautiful color. She always says it's just brown, but it's more than that. Yes, sometimes it does look black, but in some lights, it almost looks like it has red in it, too. It amazes me how it's always like a surprise to see what color her hair will be in each light she's in. I could see her eyes moving from underneath her eyelids. In a way I wish she would open her eyes so that I could look into them like I always do. Another thing about her that fascinates me would have to be her eyes. It's strange how she's the only person in her family with silver eyes. Gorgeous eyes. Sometimes they can show such emotion. Like when her smile reaches her eyes completely. What I hate is when they show no emotion, like if she's trying to hide her feelings. I hear a door shut downstairs, and her parents talking.
"What do you think she did all day?" her dad asked, and he actually sounded in somewhat of a good mood.
"Knowing her, she probably just read all day." Or she was with me, kissing and lying on her bed, and talking about everything. I heard footsteps coming upstairs, so I put her Edgar Allen Poe book beside her, unlocked the door and hid in her closet. A little after I got into her closet, her parents came into her room.
"Oh, she's sleeping. Ah, no wonder why, if I read a book that many times it would probably start putting me to sleep as well." Her mom said, trying not to giggle and wake Rayne.
"Well, let's just let her sleep." Her dad said. They walked out of the room and shut the door behind them. She opened her eyes just as I was locking her door again.
"Are they downstairs?" She asked, which startled me because I thought she was sleeping the whole time.
"Yes. When did you awake?"
"When you left my side." She said, her cheeks having a little blush to them. Only she could say one word and blush.
"I heard your dad downstairs and thought he sounded like he was in a good mood. I thought his mood would go to bad if he came in and saw me lying beside you in bed." I said grinning, which made her smile, that beautiful smile.
"No, he probably wouldn't even care, or think anything of it. I'm surprised they even walked in here." She looked at me and her smile got even bigger. "Connor, I want you to meet my parents."
"Rayne, if I just walked downstairs with you, they might get a little confused." I said almost laughing.
"No, no, no. You would obviously have to go outside and ring the doorbell." She said smiling, which completely lit up her eyes. She looks so gorgeous right now.
"Are you sure about this?" I asked trying to hide my nervousness. Yes, her dad did seem in a good mood, and yeah her mom is very nice. But the whole vampire boyfriend meeting his girlfriend's parents just doesn't sound like that great of an idea.
"Connor, you're going to have to meet them someday. Besides I've met your parents and been around them who knows how many times? So, go. Wait about fifteen minutes outside. Then, ring the doorbell."
"Alright, I guess I'll see you at the door." I said jumping down from her balcony. I had this uneasy feeling in my stomach throughout those fifteen minutes. Those minutes alone felt like an eternity. I didn't really know how else to waste time, so I ran home and got my car. I wanted it to look a little more realistic that I had just come over to visit. I ran up to my room once I got home and changed into some cleaner jeans and a black long sleeve shirt. Tied back on my chucks, everyone all had different plans tonight, so I didn't have to worry about being questioned. I went outside and got into my BMW. Finally, I stepped onto her porch, and rang the bell. I waited a minute or two, and then heard her run into the entry way, yelling to her parents that she got the door. When the door opened I seen that she too had changed. She was now wearing a different pair of jeans, a plain black t-shirt, and her chucks as well. Wow, we matched way too much. I wanted to just burst out laughing, and by the look on her face, so did she.
"Hey." She said, trying not to laugh. Her hair was tucked behind her ears so that it wouldn't hang in her face. It looked like she had thrown some mascara on because her eyelashes looked even longer than usual. "You can come in." she said, still trying not to laugh. I walked in at the same time that her parents walked in from the family room.
"This must be Connor." Her mom said. I looked at Rayne, startled that her mom knew who I was. "Rayne just told us you were stopping over, and we figured maybe in a little we'd all go get something to eat together."
"That sounds good." I said shaking her hand.
"I'm Rayne's dad, obviously. You can call me John if you'd like." What did she tell them about me because they seem to like me already.
"Oh, silly me, you can call me Holly if you'd like." Her mom said smiling. She was obviously just happy that Rayne had, well, a boyfriend.
"Do you want a drink or anything?" Rayne asked me, and by the looks of it, she was still trying not to laugh. Well, I am so tickling her to death, for putting me through this.
"Yeah, that'd be great."
"Okay, come with me and I'll get you a drink. Mom, dad, we'll be right back."
"Oh, it's fine. Take your time. We're going to go upstairs, and get changed and ready to go out to eat." Her mom said smiling. We went into the kitchen, and right after we heard her parent's door shut, she started laughing.
"I'm sorry. This must be torture for you." She said after she had calmed down some.
"You're just plain mean. So, wait a minute. What all did you tell them?"
"I just told them that I saw you in the bookstore the one day that I went into town, and that it turned out that you're one of our neighbors. And that today we went out to breakfast together and talked. And that was basically it. My mom asked if you were the 'Connor' from three years ago, and I said yes. Then, she smiled and said 'okay'. And that was it." She looked at me with this look on her face; like she was irritated by her mom's reaction to finding out it was the same 'Connor'. That's another thing I love about Rayne; she's so different from all the other girls. Most girls like to sit around and gossip, or talk about boys, Rayne would rather shoot herself. She'd rather sit by herself and read, or write.
"Okay, so, where are we going out to eat?" I was pretty hungry, and I'm sure she is, too, because we barely ate anything today.
"Um, I'm not sure. I doubt my parents even know of anywhere around here. Although I did find a nice little restaurant when I was in town that one day that you were following me." She said grinning.
"Oh you mean 'Sisters'?" Four sisters a long time ago that were supposedly witches owned the restaurant. At least everyone thinks it was just a myth, but well, it wasn't. The restaurant has been handed down generation after generation, but a year ago one of the descendents, who refused to believe she was a witch, sold it to someone with one request that they didn't change the name or anything else with the restaurant.
"Yeah, that's it. I walked passed it and thought it looked like a nice little restaurant. Lets just hope that my mom doesn't find out about its history, and the stories that go along with it." Her mom is just completely against witchcraft. I don't understand why, but I guess it was mainly Rayne's dad who was pretty much against it. She walked over to me, slid her arms around my waist, and looked up at me with those amazing eyes. I bent my head down to kiss her, and not even a second later we heard her parents door open. "Just great." She mumbled, and sat down at the table. I sat down across from her.
"Hey guys." Her mom walked in and said. "Two things, what restaurant do you guys want to go to? And we figured that afterwards, your dad and I would maybe go out, and you two could just come back here and maybe watch some movies?" Her dad agreed to this? No way, something's not right here.
"Are you sure dad agreed to this?" Rayne completely read my mind.
"Yeah, he said it was fine. We both had long days at work, so it would be nice if me and him could just go out for a little."
"Well, mom, why don't you guys just go out and we'll all go to dinner some other night? Maybe we can just invite Connor's family over some night, and we can just cook dinner here?" Rayne looked at me to see if I would say whether or not they could.
"Yeah, I'm sure my parents would come over, my brothers and sisters are always busy, but if I tell them like a few days advance then I'm sure they'd be able to." I said.
"Okay, I'll ask your dad, but I'm sure he'll agree to that. Are you guys sure you don't want to go out to eat though?" She asked, sounding like she felt bad for the change of plans.
"Mom it's fine. You guys go ahead and go out. We'll order some pizzas and watch some movies." Rayne said, and of course once she said it her mom let her happiness through so that she was smiling.
"Okay, well, we'll be home in a few hours or so. Connor you can just spend the night if you'd like. I mean you might want to sleep on the couch, or the floor in Rayne's room, or something, so that her dad doesn't get angry or anything." She said laughing.
"Um okay." I said cautiously. After that, she walked out of the room, we heard her parents say goodbye and goodnight from the entranceway, and they left. Once we saw their headlights disappear, Rayne practically ran over and sat on my lap.
"What movie would you like to watch?" She asked with a grin from ear to ear. She's so cute.
"Well, what are the options?" I asked grinning back at her. I felt her sigh knowing how much she loves my grin. Why? I'm not completely sure, but for some reason she is completely in love with it.
"My dad has a lot of movies." She got up, took my hand, and led me to the family room. "How about 'Boondock Saints'? I've seen that one over a hundred times, and it never gets old."
I laughed and said, "Okay, let's watch it then." She put the movie in, I sat on the couch, and she lay down and rested her head on my lap. So, I played with her hair, running my fingers through it and what not. After we watched Boondock Saints we decided to just go up to her room and lay in bed. We kissed for a little while, and she eventually fell asleep in my arms. After awhile I got up, lay down on the floor with the hundred pillows and blankets she gave me, and fell asleep as well.
Sorry it took so long for me to post this chapter. I tried to make it long. Please, review, I want to know what you think.
