DISCLAIMER: I OWN THIS STORYS PLOT AND CHARACTERS.

You, Me and Us.

"Yeah, that's why I was angry at my father, for keeping it at this time of the year. He could socialize all he wants anytime after we're married and you're safe and a vampire" I hadn't thought of that yet and I'd rather leave it to think about some other time or I'd have a nervous breakdown. Too much thinking for a few weeks.

He carried on "You are very vulnerable right now and I don't want anything to happen to you. I won't let it but still, one can never be too careful. And he just doesn't get it! He doesn't know every time I see her I feel like an idiot, my heart hurts. But no! He doesn't care! He still invites her family every time! I still have to suffer! But not anymore! Not anymore. This time I have you and I will never feel anything for anyone else as long as I live. I promise. I wish you could have come in my life a little sooner." He said as he pulled my chin up.

I was awestruck and said "Awe, David.. You're so sweet!" and hugged him harder.

He chuckled

Today was the first time I'd heard him talk so much in one day. Well, that's not entirely true but could be. He had opened up to me more than anyone else. He had done that only with me. I was the only one who had heard him talk this much.

I sighed.

"What are you thinking?"

"I'm just wrapping my head around the fact that from tomorrow onwards I'll be facing someone who has a different type of power over you which I don't. I must say I'm a bit jealous." I said jokingly.

Apparently David didn't take it as lightly as I intended him to. He sighed "she will never have as much power over me as you do. You have nothing to be jealous off. I'm all yours."

Awe! He said he was mine, exactly like I said before he left, that he had nothing to worry about and I was all his. I don't know why I felt so out of character as I felt the need to giggle. Which of course I didn't do.

I smiled and said acting babyish "I know! And she better keep her dirty paws to herself cuz I'm not as sweet as I look when it comes to my man"

We both laughed at that.

I was so NOT looking forward for this ball.

"Let's go show you your wardrobe for the coming weeks. I hope you like it. It's the finest outfits available and we want you to look your best" I frowned and he added "not that you don't.. Because you totally do.. No matter what you wear.. You know what I mean right?"

"Yeah yeah, whatever!" I joked. I was standing a little tensed now.

I knew I had to look really good because number one, I was their future queen, everyone will be expecting a lot. My frown deepened and number two, Samantha would be a major competitor.

Smiling, putting his finger on my forehead smothering my frown line he said;

"You don't have to wear them if you don't like it. We can go shop today for other cloths."

"No, it's not that"

"Then why are you worried?"

"Me? Oh it's nothing!"

I so did not want to tell him this!

"I told you so much about myself today and you're not going to answer my simple question because I certainly expect you to."

"Nope!" I said smiling and moving my head side from side.

Slowly with every word he was moving closer to me and I in sync was moving backward with each of his step.

"Are you sure that's your final answer?" he said seductively.

"Yep!" I said moving my head up and down.

Smiling the whole time.

"Really?"

I felt the cold wall press hard against my back and my heartbeat hitched.

"Y-Yes!"

I was looking in his eyes and getting lost.

"What if I can make you say what's on your mind?"

"Y-You.. C-ca-cant Ma-make me do an-any-anything"

I was stuttering, what was happening?

"Are you sure?" he whispered in my ear, his voice smooth, as he bent down now, with each of his hand besides my head, making my escape impossible.

"Y-Ye-Yes!"

He bent down and kissed my neck and then trailed light kisses along my jaw

"So, why won't you tell me?" he whispered seductively.

"I-I-I do-don't wa-want t-to" Gosh I was stammering so much! I supposed I was having a hard time keeping my head straight.

"Hmm.. Why?" he said pressing himself on me. Still planting kisses along my jaw.

"I-its em-embarressing!" butterflies were flying in my stomach.

"I still want to know. More than before." He smiled.

I frowned. "i-im not t-telling you!"

"Don't make me hypnotize you"

Shocked. My mouth popped open.

"You can do that?"

"Oh yes!"

Panic-stricken I said "No! Please don't!"

I started hyperventilating. I didn't want him to get inside my head, hypnotize me and find out all my secrets and thoughts. Even how I felt just by his close proximity. That would be even more embarrassing!

He pulled back a little with my sudden panic attack "calm down! I'm not going to eat you! And I'm not going to make you do something when I hypnotize you!"

I didn't even mean it that way but oh well, whatever.

"I don't want you to ever hypnotize me. I don't want you to know what I think about and all. It's embarrassing! I like it this way, so don't even try getting in my head."

"Alright, I will never get inside your head, but, one condition!"

"What?" I said narrowing my eyes.

"You're killing me! Now tell me what I want to hear."

I pursed my lips and after a minute of silence, exhaled loudly saying "FINE! I was thinking how everyone would be looking at me expectantly and would want to see a polished Barbie standing in front of them, someone to be able to lead them! And that Samantha would be there and I don't know if I'm good enough for you or if I'm better than her! And-"

He suddenly pulled back when I took Samantha's name. His back was towards me. Thank God for that because God knows how embarrassing this was.

"She's not even half as beautiful as you. How many times do I have to tell you? You don't have anything to worry about. Don't even compare her to yourself because she's not worth it. I've always thought that I've never deserved such an amazing person like you. I could never conjure that you felt like this. Never hide your feelings from me. As far as the others are concerned, they don't expect you to look like a Barbie- you already are one. You don't even have to try to win their hearts because you already have. By surviving seventeen years."

I frowned.

"I knew you would say this and get mad at me! That's why I didn't want to tell you this-"

He turned around interrupting me.

"I'm not mad at you! I just didn't expect you to think like that. I promise I'm never going to hypnotize you and get anything out but I want you to promise me something in return."

"Anything" I replied.

"Promise me that you will never hide what you feel or think about, from me, no matter how embarrassing, stupid or weird it is. I will never be mad at you for saying something you feel or think."

"I promise" I said smiling.

He held his hand out and I took it as he smiled.

"Let's go show you your beautiful outfit just like yourself." I blushed. Me and beautiful? Everyone had called me hot, sexy, pretty and etc but beautiful? No one except... Daniel. I missed him but I didn't want to think about it now either.

As I moved toward him, he pulled me closer, put an arm lightly around my waist protectively and slightly leaned or you could say, hovered over me.

As we walked to my room, he smelled my hair and sighed.

Soon in the room, I sat on the bed because he made me sit and walked away after saying. "Stay."

If I hadn't known him better I'd say he was commanding me to stay, but because I knew him well, I knew that he meant it with the best of his heart.

Soon he appeared with an outfit in his hand. One by one he showed me all the outfits and sort of modeled them for me as well.

I couldn't stop laughing.

I loved them all but I couldn't help but laugh.

He went all serious and said "Do you not like them? I chose all of them myself, especially for you, as I overheard your mom complimenting my taste in things on your birthday."

"I love them and totally agree! You have the best taste ever!"

"Then why are you laughing so much? Not that I don't like it" he smiled confused. He looked so cute when he smiled and had a confused expression.

"It's just that… I never expected the strongest, meanest and stoic ice Prince to display my dresses, like a runway model would, for me"

I laughed again and he frowned.

"Things we do for the people we love" he rolled his eyes smiling as he flopped down on the bed next to me gracefully, lying down with his feet still on the ground.

I froze. Did he just say indirectly or directly say that he loved me too? My heart sprinted with joy. He had never said it.

"What's wrong?" he said suddenly sitting up next to me.

"Nothing's wrong. It's just that I don't know if you realize this but it's the first time you indirectly said you love me. It's stupid, I know-" I smiled weakly, blushing. But when I looked up I stopped talking. He smiled the most brilliant smile I had seen on his face.

He put his hand on my face and pulled it closer to his face. I was almost on top of him.

He stopped, looked in my eyes and sighed "I didn't know this would be this hard. It's been so long."

After a while I felt a little awkward because we were sitting in a very unusual position.

We both were silent.

He was sitting on the bed, resting on the headboard with his knees up and I was between his legs and on top of him. Imagine. Awkward, no?

Wait. When did he adjust himself? I guess I'll never get used to that.

Anyways making use of this time I looked in my favorite place. His eyes. They were almost black? How did..?

Suddenly David slowly said "I love you"

His eyes were burning with hunger. I was awestruck. He just said he loved me. I was having a tingly feeling in my stomach and I could explode from happiness.

"I love you too" I whispered.

He put his hand in my hair and pulled me closer.

I looked at his lips and was going to kiss him.

Please review?

Zoya.
