I HAVE PUT NEW PICS UP, ALEC, ASHLEY, HEIDI, JANE... HAVE CHANGED. I THINK MY NEW ALEC IS HOTTER AND HE LOOKS OLDER WHICH IS IMPORTANT!!! AND REMEMBER I CHANGED THE PREFACE, YOU HAVE TO READ!

Chapter 16 – Mio Angelo

What! Is he serious? He loves me? No, he must be joking, I mean the other day he threw me on a fricken' table. I shook my head, he's pulling my chain.

I chuckled lightly "Ok...ok. What did you really want to say?"

His face dropped and he shifted uncomfortably "I-uh........ Ashley" he looked at me pleading with his ruby stained eyes.

I quirked an eyebrow and nodded urging him yet again. "Go on, Alec"

He stepped forward and ran his fingers over my hand, smiling at it when he took it in his. He ran his thumb over my cheek.

"Ashley...I am in love with you" he said in more confidence this time.

I stood there is shock. Everything started getting blurry until it all delved into a dark sea of black.

* * * * *

Ow.

I need aspirin.

"Ashley?"

Mum?

"Ashley" the sweet voice sounded relieved, but it wasn't mum. It was male.

I opened my eyes, to see an angel above me. He was gorgeous. His dark hair choppy and his eyes red. His skin pale with a happy grin plastered on his beautiful face, his jaw line standing out and his gorgeous lips barely iresistable.

...Alec.

Then it hit me; everything that has happened, how Alec had nearly killed me. How I had been technically held prisoner or in other words kidnapped. But what also hit me was Alec's previous words; I love you.

I reached up and cupped his cheek, smiling at him.

"I love you too" I whispered before he smiled and his lips came crashing down on mine. It was short and sweet but still sent butterflies through my stomach.

He chuckled lightly putting my hair behind my ears. His smile was wide and I could almost see the aura of his happiness.

He lay down next to me pulling me to his chest. Laying his chin on my head, he began humming a tune in a velvet yet manly voice.

Primavera canta po 'di sole.

Summer unisce tutti in uno.

L'autunno pieno di fuoco come le foglie.

Inverno a sinistra con gli alberi spogli .

His voice made me smile, and I couldn't help but hear the emotion in the song. It obviously meant alot to him.

Il mio angelo attraverso tutte le stagioni

Miei cari attraverso tutti gli anni

Il mio bambino per sempre

Sarai sempre il mio

Come ho la tua

I yawned, feeling drowsy. "What are you singing?" I whispered groggily. He chuckled lightly his mouth making contact with the back of my neck. "It's the song my mother used to sing to Jane and I." he mumbled against my skin.

I smiled pulling his arm tighter against me, no longer feeling constricted by the covers separating us.

"I love you mio angelo" I heard him breath before I fell asleep.

* * * * *

I yawned and not just any yawn but a hippo yawn, which is sure to be seen as attractive to Alec. Sarcasm.

"Morning mio angelo" Alec whispered kissing me chastely. He ran the back of his hand over my cheek, smiling.

"Moring Love birds!" Heidi crashed into the room, winking and bobbing her hip. She stood, lace, silk, velvet, satin, cotton and linen in her hands. Oh great; dresses.

Alec groaned, rolling his eyes. Heidi grinned "So ya'll been getting frisky" she said with a slight fake southern drawl.

I laughed at her failing impression at the accent. She rolled her eyes throwing the garments onto the bed.

"No. Barbie. Ashley" I moaned, all I wanted was to lay here with Alec, all day.

He hugged me tighter to him, obviously agreeing on not moving.

"Ashley. Alec. This. Is. Important" Heidi growled, placing hands on her hips.

I scoffed and she quickly backed herself up. "Sulpicia and Athendora have been planning something awhile now and. NOW. Is the time. To get ready" she hissed, glaring at Alec.

I quickly kissed his lips "You better go if you value your life" I giggled as he pulled himself out the door. His head popped in a moment later. "Love you mio-"

He was cut off as Heidi threw a book at him. He laughed disappearing down the corridor but not before I said I loved him back.

Heidi smiled at me, pulling out a long dress. It was a faded peach and lapped at the bust also combing almost origami-cally at the back. It was a thin material but looked stunning and from the moment I put it on, I knew it was the one. (A/N Pic on profile)

...

"Where are we going!?" I demanded. I tried to push my heel into the ground to stop but Heidi being inhumanly strong pushed me forward.

She groaned as I tried to pull from her grip. "I. Told. You. It. Is. A. Surprise!" she said to me as if I was a toddler.

I scowled. Vampires are idiots.

Great now I'm acting immature and positively childish. We neared the dining hall, the one I ate in not the one the...

Monsters.

I groaned and the door opened to reveal the room lit roantically. The table was gone since, I had dinner an few hours ago. It was now 9 pm.

I looked around to see candles everywhere. There were long peach sheets draped along the walls, I guess Heidi's doing in a desperate attempt for it to match my dress. There was a large white piano in the corner and the top was layered in peach sheets and candles. The room smelt of freesia and was oddly alluring.

She ushered me in and left, pulling the doors behind her. I stood awkwardly wringing my hands together and glancing nervously around. I have no clue what is going on.

I retreated backwards when the doors opened again and there stood Alec, nervous just like myself, he glanced around until he made eye contact with me. We both grinned at each other and he was in front of me in seconds.

"Hello." He smiled holding out his hand.

"Alec" I nodded and placed my hand in his.

His other arm snaked around my waist pulling me tight and my arm went over his shoulder. He began slowly stepping forward making me retreat, then he turned slowly.

I jumped when a soft piano sound filled the air. I turned my head to see a vampire named Larrisha play a soft melody. With her short orange hair covering her eyes I was surprised she could see the keys.

"mio angelo" Alec whispered letting his face sit in the crook of my neck.

I chuckled "What does that mean?" I said lightly, talking loud wouldn't seem to fit the setting.

He kissed his way up to my lips and then pulled back "It means; my angel"

My heart sped and I felt as though my heart was melting, my eyes widened and glistened.

I felt a smile break my face. "Do you know, when I passed out" he flinched but I continued "Well when I first woke up I thought you were an angel, you're beautiful." I smiled.

He grinned smugly and chuckled lightly "I'm beautiful?"

"Don't let it go to your head" I laughed.

He chuckled, dipping me back so my neck curved, he of course took advantage by trailing kisses along it.

He brought me back up and I was blushing tremendously. His fingers traced along my jaw and over my cheek.

"You are perfect" he whispered before his lips ran over mine.

I blushed darker but deepened the kiss. My breath was rigid and my heart was embarrassingly speedy. He chuckled against my lips.

"I see you must be enjoying yourself" he laughed and I smacked him playfully on the arm.

I had to admit, hitting him kind of hurt, the big rock that he is. I laughed at my mind and he shot me a curious glance.

"What?" he asked spinning me.

I smirked "Oh nothing, just thinking that's all"

"What were you thinking about?" his eyes were full of curiosity.

I laughed again "Oh. Just how hard you are" as soon as the words escaped me, my eyes widened and he laughed, I could see Larrisha hold back a giggle and yet again my face stained beetroot red.

"You have that kind of effect on me" he grinned smugly, his forehead against mine. This was when Larrisha left, awkwardly.

I laughed. "Wow we must be getting too graphic" and he laughed along with me.

Okay, thought I'd end here they ain't do 'it' yet

I thought it was sweet, but next Chapter Alec gets really pissed off! I got the idea from Shyrazie which will be featured next chapter. :)

Omigosh! 159 reveiws, yay! :D
