This one is pretty short, but I wanted to make a quick to update. I´ll probably update again tonight :-)
Images started swimming in front of her eyes. Memories, forgotten so long ago, forced away, was reappearing. But she couldn´t focus on them. She could only let her self loose in the waves of pure bliss and pleasure.
She faintly was aware of how they both had collapsed in a heap on the floor, but she didn´t care as long as she was close to him.
She didn´t know precisely when he stopped drinking, because the overwhelming feeling stayed, and only faded slowly. She felt a bit dizzy, and some part of her brain told her it was because of blood loss.
She was the first to move. She slowly turned around, untill she laid on her back. She cast a short glance to her right where Damon was mirroring her movements. They caught each others eyes, both piercing blue. A small smile played in the corners of his mouth.
"Wow," he smiled almost boyishly. It looked good on him. She smiled back.
There was so much she had to say to him, to ask him, so many memories that had erupted in her mind. But right now she just wanted to lay down and relax and enjoy the moment.
They lay like that for some time, in comfortable silence.
Then Alice sighed.
"This floor is absolutely not comfortable."
"I think it´s just fine," his voice was nearly inaudible, and he sounded completely relaxed.
"Not as good as my bed though. I do speak from experience. I´ve kinda slept in it for a couple of years."
She could hear him shuffle next to her. Pulling himself up on his elbow.
"Seriously?"
"Yeah, it´s pretty good."
"That´s not what I meant." He sounded a bit more awake now.
Alice rolled closer to him, facing him, as she studied his features.
"No funny business." She tried to sound stern, but wasn´t sure if she succeeded.
He raised his eyebrows, smirking a bit, but when she just held his gaze, he slumped a little.
"Fine. I promise."
"Good."
She was silent for a minute.
"You are allowed to carry me, though." His brows shut up again.
"Someone is pretty confident that the big bad vampire is full."
Alice couldn´t stiffle a yawn.
"Nah, I´m just too tired to care." At that a small chuckle escaped him. She felt his arms wrap around her, and then the swoosh of air, before she was engulfed by the softness of her bed. She let out a content sigh as Damon laid down next to her.
She snuggled into him, hearing him mutter faintly.
"Tease..." She ignored him. Se could feel sleep claiming her, and next to her Damon´s breath also started slowing down. Just before she was fully asleep, he pulled her closer, kissing her hair and whispering: "Goodnight Kirya."
"´Night Damon." And then she lost consciousness.
So, it seems that Kirya might be back? Or... I haven´t decided yet precisely what will happen in the morning. Should Damon still be there? Or will he have left? Does Kirya remember everything? And how will she react when her mind isn´t fogged?
Hmm... I can´t really make up my mind, so any ideas are more than welcome.
It´s morning here in Denmark right now, the sun is shining, but if you really wanna make my day, please review ;-)
