The Wretched And Divine

God Bless You

ALEX'S POV

Upon my eyes fluttering open, I rolled over and marveled at my mate's beauty. We were both accustomed to watching each other sleepy occasionally, so we didn't necessarily feel creepy or weird anymore. He looked so peaceful...so serene. I couldn't bare the thought of losing him to Max. That low life already took one thing away from me, I did not want him to take another.

I sighed and rolled over onto my back and gazed at the alarm clock beside me - it was 6:20. Any ounce of sleep that lingered in my body disappeared, so I decided against lying in bed waiting to wake up or waking him up myself and got up. I tiptoed down the stair and into the kitchen where Amy was standing drinking a cup of coffee.

She greeted me with a warm smile. "Good morning, Alex. What's got you up so early?" I sauntered over to the fridge to retrieve the orange juice.

"Couldn't sleep." I shrugged, taking a sip of the juice that was now in a small glass. I leaned against the countertop and sighed quietly. Amy nodded.

"I understand where you are coming from," She laughed. "I often find myself up at the crack of dawn!" Her bright smile was contagious, making me grin just as wide. Andy's mom was so genuine and full of life, I always loved her personality.

It was silent for a few minutes before Amy checked her watch. She let out a breathe and placed her almost empty coffee cup in the sink before turning to me.

"Well, I'm off to work! Have a good day hon." She smiled. I said goodbye and waved her off and suddenly, the house became more quiet and dreary.

I moved over to the living room and sat down emotionlessly, my thoughts running rampant. There was an eerie silence that hung in the air and I couldn't help but wonder if that silence is what it would be like if Andy were to die in the fight. I had so many questions. Where would I go? What would I do? How would I go on? I was baffled and frustrated but I refrained from continuing to complain and cry to Andy about it. He had enough to worry about.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and jumped slightly but calmed down when I stared into those mesmerizing blue eyes.

"You okay?" Andy asked cautiously. I looked at the clock on my phone - 9:15am.

I've been thinking for almost 3 hours?

"Yes." I murmured, setting my empty glass onto the coffee table.

I laid my body on top of Andy's when he sprawled himself out on the couch and rested my head on his bare chest. He laughed softly and kissed my head.

"Are we doing anything today?" I mumbled, the feeling of exhaustion washing over me like a tidal wave. I let my eyes slip shut but focused on Andy's voice.

"Not till tonight. Ash and Devlynn are coming over for the day so he can help me train and then the four of us are going to some nightclub downtown at like 11." His deep voice rang through my ears. I lifted my head up and stared at him, excitement shining in my eyes.

I was in desperate need of some fun, despite our recent vacation, and going to a nightclub sounded like a blast.

"Ooh! I've never been to a nightclub!" I exclaimed. Andy laughed and wrapped his arms around me protectively.

"Well this is a special one only for vampires and their mates. We're allowed alcohol too." He grinned devilishly. I giggled childishly and dropped my head onto his chest.

"Are you saying we should get shit faced tonight?" I smirked.

Andy raised an eyebrows and smiled slyly. "I didn't say that."

"It was implied." I scoffed before running my fingers through his growing black locks. I grabbed his face in my hands and pulled him in for a kiss.

"So when did you and Andy meet?" Devlynn, who asked me to call her dev, questioned.

"6 months in little over two weeks." I gushed. "I know it doesn't seem long but it feels like we've been together for years." Dev nodded and smiled genuinely.

"I understand. Ash and I have only been together for two weeks and it already feels like a year." Her eyes twinkled as she spoke of her mate. It was cute and I wondered if that's what I look like when I talk about Andy.

"I can tell by how your eyes sparkle that you're madly in love with him."

Dev bit her lip and blushed. "He's amazing." She whispered. I nodded in agreement.

"That he is. That boy has been there for me more times than I can count; he's the brother I never had." I said. It was silent for a minute or so, but it was nowhere close to being awkward.

"Y'know Alex.." She spoke up. I hummed in response. "Don't get mad at him for this but Ashley told me about your eating disorder." My eyes snapped up to meet her pale blue orbs.

"Yeah?" I asked, my heart racing slightly. What if she judges me?

Dev nodded. "..And I just want you to know that I'm here to talk, if you ever need to. I know we just met but you're such a sweet girl and you deserve to be happy." I smiled kindly and leaned forward to hug her.

"Thank you, Dev. Same for you." I whispered.

It warmed my heart that Devlynn was being so sweet to me and acted as if we knew each other forever and were the greatest of friends. It was nice to have a girl friend for once and even better knowing she made Ashley happy.

@Red Phoenix77 i wrote this back when i was about 13 (im 18 now) but i assume that my thought process was that vampires weren't undead, they were very much alive. also, i was very inexperienced when writing this story so i didn't put too much thought into things. maybe i'll re-write it one day! :)

Not entirely sure why vampires would need to worry about protection . Since they're already undead , they wouldn't have to worry about diseases , and I seriously doubt that she's gonna get pregnant .
