Elizabeth's POV
I felt so safe in Syrus's warm embrace. It was almost like being in a dream, as if I were there and not there at the same time. It felt so right that he would be the father of my child. Though I had to wonder: when someone with a pure heart and someone with a corrupt heart had a child, what would their child be like? Would their heart fall more to one side, or would it be a perfect balance between the two? After a minute, I found it best not to dwell on at the moment.
I'm so excited, but I'm also so scared. I wonder if Elizabeth feels the same way.
"Yes, I do feel the same way," I said.
"How did you..." Syrus asked.
"I can read your thoughts, remember. Or are you still too foggy from our love making to remember?" I asked in a tone a bit more irked than I had intended.
Damn you, you stupid, evil, annoying mood swings! I hate you so much! Ah, now you're making me yell at you! Get out of my head and stop messing with me! Die you little mothers! Die!
"I guess I am a little foggy. It's just that... It's almost like you get me high, like you're a drug. You see, I'm addicted and I don't want rehab," he said, making me smile. He was starting to get excited again. He kissed my neck, but I pulled away.
"Syrus, I love you, but if one of the guards walks by and sees me all sweaty and tired, he may get suspicious, and since those reptiles will tell Lucifer anything for a decaying rat head, it may lead to you and everyone else getting hurt. Besides, I think once is enough for one day," I said.
"Sorry," he said, with a sheepish look in his eyes.
"Don't look at me like that. It's okay, you're a teenager with raging hormones and so am I. Besides, we do find each other irresistable. At least, I find you irresistable," I said.
Stupid, stupid hormones!
"I find you irresistable as well," he said. We kissed, but were soon interrupted by a bright light. I looked at the clock: 12:00.
"I think that's my ride," I said before hugging him and kissing him again.
"I love you," he said.
"I love you too," I said, a tear running down my cheek. I walked through the light and found myself back in my cell, the amulet around my neck.
"You won't be able to use the amulet for a while, but it will glow once I have the energy to cover for you again" I heard Cedric say in my head.
"Thank you, Cedric," I whispered, and felt a certain, lovely comfort. I realised how tired I was from earlier and fell asleep in the corner, where there was now a bed of rather soft straw, obviously put there by one of the guards. Hey, even souls in Hell need some comfort.
