Chapter 6
Lauren left at around 10:00am so I had about 2 hours to get ready for my lunch date with James. As I went through my wardrobe to choose an outfit I decided I would tell James about my true nature as I already knew about him. The only problem was vampires and were-wolves were meant to be enemies not soul-mates but I couldn't keep my feelings for him under wraps I had to be near him. When we're apart I feel like my heart has just stopped and there is a hole inside. I know we only practically met but it really does feel like that.
I chose a red dress that I just recently bought and a pair of black heels, yes it was a bit fancy but I wanted to look my best. I wasn't sure that it wasn't too much until I saw the look on James's face when I opened the door.
"Wow, you look, Wow!"
"Thanks. You look pretty Wow yourself"
I wasn't the only one that made an effort James was wearing a white shirt and black trousers and Wow was a pretty good word to describe it. We stood there looking at each other until he held out his arm.
"Shall we?" he asked
"We shall." I smiled bashfully as he led me through town to the only fancy restaurant we had in town. I'm so glad I made the effort because the restaurant had a dress code. We had an amazing lunch and after James came around my house, luckily my mum was out still so I could tell James my secret without getting a lecture.
"James I have to tell you something." I said slowly
"What? Did you not have a good time?" I could hear the worry in his voice
"No! I had a great time, it's just..." I sighed
"Just?"
"We can't be together."
"What? Why not?"
I walked over to him and sat on the arm of the sofa next to where he was sitting. I looked into his eyes and just blurted out:
"I'm a werewolf." I then dipped my head waiting for his reaction.
I expected him to get up and walk away but instead cupped my chin and he lifted my head to look into my eyes and said:
"So what? I don't care what you are, we're meant to be together."
"But…"
"No buts, I know you felt the connection between us and that only happens between…"
"Soulmates" I finished in a whisper.
"Exactly, I really like you Thea, actually I think I love you. I know this is kind of sudden but I have from the moment I first laid eyes on you. I didn't knew what it was that made me feel this way but when our hands touched I knew. I knew that I couldn't live without you. But tell me you don't feel the same and I'll leave and you'll never see me again so you can get on with your li-"
I stopped him with a kiss.
"I love you too" I said against his lips.
