I decided to do one more chapter with just Josef & Kate, 'cause I can't really think of another case they could go on at the moment...any suggestions?

It's been exactly a day and a half since I began staying at Josef's place. At first it was really boring 'cause I couldn't go anywhere, besides Mick's of course. But Mick was way more boring, he hasn't been getting any interesting cases either, just husbands who want him to follow their wives around or wives who want him to follow their husbands around, and one missing persons case when a teen went missing, but it was a false alarm, the kid was just out all night with friends. He even got a case where an old lady came in asking him to find her cat. Of course it was a paying job, so Mick took it, found the cat in a tree, got it down, and collected his large sum of money. After about half of the first, or second day, depends on how you look at it, it got less boring being around Josef. He took off from work and stayed home while I was here and we had fun...no, not that kind of fun, you sick-minded people. We messed around a lot and constantly teased each other and got into fights. The fights didn't last long though. We talked a lot too, he got my life story, I got his. He is one very interesting vampire.

I felt my feelings for him grow during this time, which scared me a little. I hate him for making me like him so much! I didn't want to come on to him or anything. I know he thought I was pretty and he liked me, but I can't help but feel like he only sees me as a friend ever since I made it clear that I didn't like him, it seemed so long ago when he kissed me and I told him I couldn't be with him, and now, to think I said that because of Nick...ugh. Anyways, that's one reason I didn't want to tell him how I felt, it could possibly ruin what we already had, or it could make it a lot better, but I'm a pessimist so I don't think that way naturally.

I sat in Josef's living room and thought about all of this on the day I finally get to go home, but I couldn't seem to feel happy about it. I wanted to stay here longer, with Josef. I sighed and looked over at him, he was on his phone a few feet away, straightening things out at work. I could've listened to the conversation if I wanted, but business is so boring. I don't see how Josef goes through it all everyday.

He suddenly snapped something into the phone angrily and shut it without waiting for a response. He sighed and came back to sit next to me on the couch. Before he had gotten the phone call we were talking about the history and evolution we've seen. It would have been a very dull conversation if I was talking to anyone besides Josef. He's seen a lot of things in his lifetime. It amazes me how much has changed in my lifetime too.

Josef propped his feet up and looked over at me,"Where were we?"

"Um, I think you were saying something about the inventions that have been so helpful compared to when you were a lot younger." I replied.

"Ah yes. When I was just 100 years old..." He continued talking about how difficult it was as a vampire way back then and I barely listened. I watched him as he talked, every movement he made. He really was a gorgeous man. My thoughts went back in time to when he kissed me, I wished I could do that again. Why can't I? I thought hard about this. Maybe he hadn't abandoned all feelings he had for me. But what if he did? And then again...what's life without taking risks, right?

Suddenly I sprang at him, too fast to follow with human eyes and stopped him in mid-sentence with my lips on his. He didn't pull away or push me off of him in disgust, this was a good sign. I could feel his shock at first, but then, he actually deepened the kiss by wrapping his arms around me and pulling me closer to him.

We kissed for a long time, it felt like a long time anyways, time wasn't important while I was kissing him. Finally we pulled away and stared at each other, I got lost in beautiful brown eyes. The expression on his face was unreadable.

Suddenly he smiled a crooked smile that looked like it just belonged on his face and said,"You are a very good kisser."

"Like I haven't heard that one before." I said grinning, we were still holding on to each other.

"Have you now?"

"Josef, I'm 135 years old, I've kissed plenty of guys before."

"I bet none of them are better kissers than me." He smirked.

"You're probably right." I said and leaned in and kissed him again, more passionately this time, trying to get my feelings across.

When we stopped I made eye contact with him,"Josef, I like you..." I paused and added,"a lot."

"I like you a lot too, Kate." He said seriously.

I rested my head on his chest and closed my eyes, committing this moment to memory, never wanting to forget it. I wanted to stay like this forever. I probably could've, if Josef's phone didn't ring. Stupid cell phones.

I sighed and Josef groaned,"I'm not answering it."

"No, you should, something could be going wrong." I said and tried to get off of him, but he tightened his arms around me in a grip like iron that I couldn't escape even with my strength.

"Let it." He said casually.

"There could be a crisis." I said looking up at him.

He kissed my forehead,"So?"

"You could lose a ton of money from it," I said even though the phone already stopped ringing.

He smiled warmly, which you don't see often,"You're worth it."

I smiled at him and lay my head back on his chest.

"You know what?" I said glancing up at him.

"What?" he said running his fingers down my cheek.

"I don't like you," I said and his face became very confused and he looked kind of hurt.

"Josef...I love you."

His expression changed completely. He looked relieved and he smiled his infectious smile again and I couldn't help but return it as he lifted my head up. He kissed me once again, putting lots of feeling into it as I had done before and finally replied,"I love you too."

Sorry this chapter was so short, that would be 'cause I don't write very good romance. I'm only 13, cut me some slack. :D
