Emotionally, it was the most difficult thing I'd ever done. I started to tear down the walls that had protected me from people for years and I invited him in: Varick. A Vampire. The most unlikely person to cross my path and illicit such a response from me. But there it was.

I was so used to walking life alone that it was nearly impossible to believe that I'd actually met someone who'd slipped under my defenses.

Varick broke the kiss first, muttering more apologies that made my heart hurt.

I knew why he hated himself. I'd borne witness to what he'd done, and no doubt that was a single occurrence amongst many. So why was I here, defending him? Certain to my core that he could still be saved?

I didn't have the answer. All I knew was, it was the Vampire in him who had done those things, not the man.

“Enough.” I pressed a hand to his chest. I gazed up into the dark trees, the bare branches reaching into the moonlit sky like gnarled fingers. The spectators were watching; they'd see how we cared for each other and it made me fear for Varick more than ever.

He nodded, backing away and moonlight spilled through the clouds, casting him in a halo of light.

How was it that death could look so alive? His eyes were emeralds laying in the shade, his hollowed cheeks touched with the milky paleness a long winter might bring. All of his quiet beauty seemed to be waiting for sunlight to fall on him and, if it did, I was certain he'd captivate the whole world.

I took his hand, silently guiding him into the cave and dropping onto my cloak which was laid out by the fire. Patting the space beside me, he reluctantly sloped into it, leaving a sizeable gap between us.

I closed it, unstrapping my tablet from my wrist and resting it on our touching knees. Sucking my lower lip, I typed out a message on the screen so our words could be kept secret.
