Laura's POV
After I controlled myself, I simply stared in Carmilla's direction. Her shocked expression stayed for half a second and turned to anger.
"What the fuck are you doing here? I always come here when I need supported. This is not social hour! I don't care if they are your friend. Right now I'm the one that needs comforting. You're just a bitch that uses people and I don't need that kind of person in my life!"
"Woah. You think I'm using you?! As if! I don't go around trying to get people to like me! Unlike some vampire in this room! I'm tired of you thinking of me as less than you. If anything, I'm more of the person you'll ever be. All you know how to do is sleep around with any girl you see. At least I know how to comfort people when need be. You just know how to hide. So, Carmilla, just be the coward you are!"
"Fuck you! I didn't sleep with you, so you can just take that back! I also comforted you whenever you needed it, so you can just shut the fuck up about what I don't do. You're the fucked up one if you really think about it. I mean here you are falling for a vampire for whatever reason. Did it ever cross your mind that I would never turn you? I mean did you even consider that the first time we kissed? You know what, don't even bother answering. I'm done with your shit. We are done, so don't even expect me to be crawling back to you."
"Now both of you shut up! Do you guys have any idea how much this hurts to watch and listen to?! You both need to settle down and tell your side of the story. There is absolutely no need to break up when you have no idea what the reason behind it is. Now I'm going to get more hot cocoa for both of you, and then I'm leaving. So, since I've heard Laura's part, she now gets to learn yours. And then can you finally just listen to each other? Have you not been paying attention to each other? The love between the two of you is so strong nothing can get passed it, so who got in between the love?" LaF asked.
I looked back at Carmilla, but she was looking intently at LaF. I wanted to know her thoughts on this. They were right of course, I mean I should have listened to her side of the story before snapping at her the way I did. It was totally uncalled for. I stood up hesitantly and walked over to Carmilla.
"Look, what I said before... I didn't mean any of it."
"We always say what we mean in the moment. Doesn't matter if you think so or not. The anger and hatred just rose in us, so we yelled what we were most afraid of. And that's human. Even if I am a vampire, my anger gets the best of me at times. I'm sorry for what I said about your mother it was wrong of me. Especially since I know what the loss of someone feels like."
"Carm, you don't need to apologise. I was the one who said all those terrible things when I brought up Ell... I was so rude to you, and you were just yelling back. I understood exactly how you felt when Ell saw the monster in you, but that will never be how I see you. Even after all this arguing I still see the woman that will comfort, protect, and be there for me no matter what. I love you Carm. I always will"
"Laura, I love you too. I've been in love with you for a very long time. I just wasn't sure of it until I heard you sing. Then that wonderful kiss right after, was just magnificent. You are everything to me. Nothing more nothing less. You are just so amazing to me, and I don't want anyone but you. No matter what." I walked closer to Carmilla after she said those heartfelt words and kissed her with as much passion as I could.
I looked her in the eyes with the brightest smile plastered on my face. She kissed me once more and held out her phone.
"I got these anonymous texts from someone, and that's why I was acting strangely. I just didn't want to ruin your last surprise, but then I read your thoughts and I lost it. I'm so sorry I didn't tell you sooner."
After I was done reading the text messages I was angry again, but not at her. How could someone get in between us like that? Who would do such a thing, and all to make me out to be the bad guy? Why, what's the point?
"Carm, I'm sorry for not asking more about why you were acting strange. I know you would probably make me stop, but eventually you would have. I'm just so sick of people coming between us. First it was Elsie, then Danny, then your mother, and now this? Who could this possibly be?"
"I had one idea in mind..."
