The Vampire Prince And Me.

The Vampire Prince And Me. Chapter Twelve.

Though I hated the fact, I had to get Lucas to help me wash my back. I was in my tub with my knees against my chest as he cleaned my back with my red loofah. I couldn't reached my back and I only had a few bite on my back from the invisible mosquitoes.

It felt weird being in a tub full of bluish-purple and you could see the milk in the water stand out--and with Lucas. But my mind wasn't on that, but on what happen today. We got Sarafina back, but Xavienna ends up in jail.

And this fight with Samuel hasn't finish and we're not sure if he's going to attack just King Alderic or Lucas and I. It scares me actually.

"There, you back should be fine now.", he said, letting the loofah down and let it float on the water.

My nose started to tickle and brought my arm up to my nose and sneezed. The right side of my nose felt clogged up and my throat start to feel slightly sore. I groaned, "Great, just what I need. I might be getting sick.", I said.

Lucas put his hands on my shoulders, "I can't tell since your in a tub full of hot water.",

I rolled my eyes and leaned back on his chest a little. He was in the water with me. It was a little odd having him with me since he never took a bath or shower with me, but since I needed help with my back, he just decided to join me.

"Your father an ass, Lucas.", I said, my voice sounding a little nasally.

He wrapped his arms around me, "I know. But he did the right thing on letting King Alderic knows. This is his people, not ours.",

"Yours.", I mumbled. "Vampires aren't my people...well, not yet.",

Lucas didn't say anything for a few moments before asking, "Your not regretting are you? About us?",

I forward my eyebrows together and turned my head around and shook my head, "No, of course not. I just mean, I'm not one of them...I'm not like you, not yet. I can't say they're my people just yet when I'm still human.", I said. I bit down on my lower lip nervously, "I'm scared, though. I'm scared about if I'm going to be a regret changing into a vampire. I mean, I'll be alive forever...watching my family die. I already miss them and I'm still human and I still get to see them all the time.",

"It's okay to be scared, Doe. You know I don't want you to choose between me and your family and you changing into a vampire isn't me doing that. Yes, they'll die, but you can't think about that right now. It'll be hard, yes, but you'll treasure the memory you have with them.", he said, bring his hand up to my face and caressing my cheek.

"What will I feel like?", I asked and he raised an eyebrow. "I mean, well I still feel warm to you? Or would I just feel cold? Will I even look the same or different?",

He gave me a small smile, "You'll feel amazing to me. I wont feel cold to you anymore like i'm a bag of ice and you wont feel like a pot of hot water to me. We'll be the same temperature. But you will look different, you'll be more beautiful, even though I don't think that possible.",

I grinned at him, "Shut up, Lucas.", I said, turning my head around. "You're so cliché.". I sneezed again and groaned, "Ugh, I bet I'm getting a cold.". Lucas flicked some water on my face and I froze, shock. "What the heck, Lucas?", I asked, wiping my face. I pressed one arm against my chest and turned around and splashed some water at him with my free arm.

He pressed his lips together and splashed back at me, but unlike my splash, his had a lot more water and he laughed when my hair stuck to my face, "Nice look, Doe.",

I grumbled under my breath at how childish he is, but I splash some more at him and some of the milk-y water in his mouth. I laughed hard and my head went backwards a little.
