Chapter 12
Stefan and I sat on the airplane waiting for to taxi to the runway, and take off back towards Mystic Falls. It had been an amazing week. We saw several schools, did the tourist things, shopped, and hung out on the beach. Nik and I grew even closer, having a week where we could just be a couple without worrying about anyone seeing us was wonderful. We held hands wandering through the streets, and he would randomly kiss me on the beach. By the end I would even venture to say that him and Stefan were back to being friends. I will never forget our last night together.
Nik lead me into a high end restaurant in downtown San Francisco. He pulled out my chair for me like a true gentleman. We ate an amazing steak dinner and drank the most amazing red wine he picked out for us. As we waited for dessert he pulled a box out of his pocket and slid it across the table to me. I carefully opened the box and inside was the most beautiful necklace I had ever seen. On the end of the long gold chain was a pendant that looked like two hearts studded with diamonds intertwined. It was stunning.
"I know that it will be hard to be apart for the next while, I wanted you to have something to remind you that I am always thinking of you, and that you own my heart. Keep it safe next to yours where it longs to be."
"Nik, I love it and I love you. I will wear it always." I say putting it on.
"Looks beautiful on you Love" he tells me as dessert arrived.
After dinner we walked back to the hotel. When we got into the room I silently untied the dress from around my neck letting it fall to the floor. I look up to see Nik staring at me with longing. He walks over to me taking his clothes off as he gets to me. When he finally reaches me he is naked and leans forward to kiss me. He kisses me with all the love that he has. He undoes my bra letting it join my dress on the floor. I push my underwear off, leaving me standing in front of him only wearing his necklace. He picked me up bridal style and takes me to the bed. Without losing eye contact he pushes inside me. He thrusts in and out of me hitting my sweet spot every time. I run my nails down his back pulling him closer to me and deeper inside of me. I can feel myself getting closer to my orgasm; I look up and catch his eyes. We somehow know what the other is thinking. I lean forward and find that spot on the side of his neck, before I can sink my fangs into his neck I feel his fangs on my neck. At the same time we bite down.
I thought drinking his blood was the best orgasm I would ever have, but the feel of him drinking mine as I drink his sent me to a whole new level of pleasure. As both our orgasms ended we pulled back and I saw the smear of my blood on his lips and I couldn't stop myself. I leaned forward and kissed him, tasting my own blood on his tongue. I have never felt closer to another person in my life. I knew then that no matter what, Nik and I would find a way to be together.
"Please return your seat backs and trays to their full upright position" I hear the flight attendants voice notifying me we are about to land.
Mom was waiting for us when we came out of the airport. I ran forward and gave her a big hug. "Hi mom, I missed you! Thanks for picking us up!"
"I missed you too Caroline. How was the trip?" she asks leading us to the car.
I filled her in on all the exciting things we had done. I told her all about the schools, and the amazing programs and campuses on the coast. Stefan told her some of the other stories of the things we had done like touring Alcatraz in San Francisco, and spending a day in Disneyland. We really did have an amazing spring break.
We dropped Stefan off at the boarding house and waved to Damon and Elena, before heading to our house. Mom pulled into the driveway and parked the car. I grabbed my suitcase out of the trunk and headed inside. I said goodnight to mom and headed up to me bedroom. I pushed open the door and stopped dead in my tracks. The last person I had expected to see was sitting on my bed.
"Hey Care, long time no see"
"Tyler"
