Chapter 5

We stood there for what seemed like an eternity. I blushed slightly holding my fingers to my lips realizing what Bill might have witnessed.

Vampire Dating 101:

Rule 1. Vampires are very possessive.

Rule 2. Don't let your vampire lover see you give tongue to another unless it's in consensual sex play.

Rule 3. If you are stupid enough to do number 2 run like hell before he or she kills you.

"Is everything okay then?" he said smoothly.

Okay, not the reaction I was expecting.

"Yes." I replied softly walking up to him. He smiled at me and held the door open as he ushered us inside. The bar was starting to buzz as customers were trickling in.

He placed his hand to the small of my back guiding me to a booth in the corner. Before a sat down, I turned to him and asked, "You're not mad?"

Still smiling he replied, "Maybe a little, but you chose me over him. He can have that kiss." Then leaning over, brushing his cool lips against my ear, he added, "You are mine, Ally. I plan to have all of you tonight and every day after, my darling." I closed my eyes as my body tingled in anticipation.

Rule 4. Vampires are full of surprises.

Bill's POV

We got to her house around 1 am. Ally had asked me to wait for her in the livingroom while she went upstairs to clean up. I smiled as I watched her walk up the stairs her hips swiveling a little as she did so.

My Ally. I can't imagine being without her.

I smiled at my own restraint the night I followed her home on Valentine's day. She had given me a chaste kiss on the lips before turning to open her door. Her lips were so soft and sweet I wanted to take her right then and there. I sensed her feeling the same, but she pulled away anyway. Not like a tease, more like a promise of things to come.

Before I could leave, she said through her doorway, "Bill, come in for a minute." I walked past the threshold to stand before her. She leaned up and kissed me again saying,"Now that you are invited Bill, I hope you will come visit me again soon."

She was extending her trust to me. By inviting me into her home she had shown me that she did not fear me. What a wondrous creature she was. I pulled her to me kissing her deep, causing her to let out a small gasp. I could smell her arousal for me as she pulled away again. "Tomorrow then," I said as I stepped down. She watched with her glittering green gaze as I made my way back to my car. When I looked back she was still standing there smiling at me. Tomorrow couldn't come soon enough.

I snapped out of my thoughts as I saw Ally descend the stairs. Her hair was slightly mussed and she was wearing a green sleeveless top that was completely sheer held in place by a green bow. It fluttered as she walked calling attention to her smooth tanned skin and flat stomach. Her underwear was made of the same sheer material with lace that hugged the curves of her hips dipping behind in a thong. She paused at the foot of the stairs.

"I hope I didn't make you wait too long, Bill." she said coyly.

I glided to her. "It was worth the wait, my darling. What do you call this?" I asked running my fingers through the sheer fabric of her top.

"It's called a baby-doll. Do you like it?" she asked, trailing her fingers down my chest, all the while gazing at me with those amazing green eyes of hers.

"Mmm. I like it very much." I said softly as I pressed my lips to hers. She sighed as she opened her mouth slightly, allowing me to taste her, my hand reaching up to caress her through the silken material. I gently palmed her breasts as my thumbs traced light circles over her extremely hard nipples causing her to arch back slightly with a moan. Lowering herself on to the steps she pulled me down with her. My body rested between her legs as she took one of my hands and guided it to the little green bow. With a grin she had me pull the ribbon releasing her top causing to cascade off her shoulders.

"Oh, Ally" was all I could say as I took one breast in my mouth suckling gently while I continued to palm her other one. She was mewing with want by the time I switched breasts. She was so enticing with her skin covered in a thin sheen of perspiration as her body writhed beneath me. Her hands found her way around to the front of my shirt deftly undoing the buttons. Pulling the shirt off of me, I flung it to the side continuing to worship her body with my mouth.

"Bill...I need you inside me..."she moaned. I undid my pants and felt her slide her warm hand inside. I growled as I made to pull off her panties. Shaking her head gently she moved my fingers to her to the front of her underwear and pushed my fingers through the slit of fabric. My God, she was wearing crotchless panties.

"My angel. You are full of surprises." I whispered looking into her eyes.

"It's my thank you present to you for being so wonderful." she said her voice thick with desire.

"I plan to accept your gratitude, many times tonight my darling.." She licked her lips in anticipation. Freeing myself from the confines of my pants and underwear I kicked it off to the side. Grabbing that nice tight ass of hers I lifted her up slightly to take me inside her. I captured her mouth with mine as I thrusted into her causing her to scream out. Her legs wrapped around my waist like a vice, as her fingers raked into my back. I could feel her tighten around my length as I plunged deeper and deeper into her. When I finally bit her on her neck she was moaning with such pleasure that it nearly sent me over the brink. She continued to undulate her hips kissing my throat and cupping my ass as I sent her to another climax. She was so exotic, so perfect. One final thrust, and I came hard inside her screaming her name, her body still quivering with bliss. Pulling out of her gently I kissed her reverently brushing a stray hair from her face.

Running her fingers through my hair she hummed softly. I've heard her hum that melody many times before.

"Ally, what song are you humming?"

"I'm not sure. It's a song that plays in my head sometimes- do you like it?"

"Yes, very much."

She shifts her body beneath me. I could feel myself getting hard for her again.

"Bill?"

"Yes?"

"The night is still young. I don't think you've been thanked properly yet."

Picking her up I held her with her legs wrapped around me as we climbed the stairs, her arms looped around my neck. Lowering her in the bed I smiled as my goddess sat up with her arms outstretched for me to join her. The love I have for her overwhelms me as I step into her embrace.

Cole

I sit across the street looking at the shadows dancing in her window.

Oh how I ache for her.

I long to feel her beneath me- to touch her, to kiss her, to hear her moan my name. She was my light, my world, my love. When we had nothing we had us.

Why was I torturing myself?

I stood up and got in my car. After pounding the steering wheel, I jammed the key inside the ignition and turned. As it roared to life I turned on the radio.

My breath caught as I listened to the song, its melody floating out of the speakers like a distant memory.

If I hold out my hand
would it change where you're standing now?
Just come back to me.

Ally's favorite song.

She hummed it all of the time. She liked the melancholy melody for some reason. I had listened to it hundreds of times but never really paid attention to the words. Now they struck home.

I flipped down my visor pulling out the photograph that had been held there, secured by a metal clip.

Thumbing the frayed edges I smiled. We were sitting on her porch swing. Her head was on my shoulder as we gazed into the camera. She gave one of her lopsided smiles that always meant she was planning some mischief. She was such a little prankster. Unfortunately, I bore the brunt of her crazy ploys since the town seemed to shun her. Idiots. I could never understand why no one seemed to see what I saw. She was everything.

Looking back at our photo I noticed how perfectly our features complimented each other. Our dark hair and light eyes were a perfect match. Oh how she hated having her picture taken. The only reason she allowed me to keep the picture was because we were both in it.

I gazed longingly at her window again. The shadows no longer played against the glass. Everything was dark.

Maybe this song was a sign.

Resting back in my seat I closed my eyes as I gripped all that we had left together in my hand.

Come back to me Ally. Just come back.
