Andy wasn't sure what to make of this girl. He had been drawn to her by her scent, which seemed to block out everything. Then she had called him by name. She was apparently a fan of the band. Then after asking him straight out if he was a vampire, she had said she would willingly give him her blood. Now she was asking him to let her remember the experience.

"You've waited your whole life to bitten by a vampire?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.
"No, I've waited my whole life to meet a vampire. I've always known you existed. I just never thought I'd actually meet one of you. I want to learn about and maybe understand your kind."

Now he was even more shocked. She wanted to learn about and understand his kind? Who was this girl? He thought about it for a moment. Should he risk it? What if she was trying to trick him somehow? He studied her. No, she seemed sincere. He could give her a chance, if it were a trick he would know the moment he bit her. Humans carried their thoughts and memories in their blood. He could always make her forget if he had to.

"Alright, but you have to promise to keep it a secret. You can't tell anyone about us."
"I promise. I won't tell a soul."

She seemed suddenly shy now that he had agreed to her terms. "How do we do this?" She asked nerveously. "Should we go inside so there's less likely a chance someone will see?"
"That would probably be a good idea. I've already been here longer than I should."

She walked past him and he followed her into her bedroom. She seemed unsure of what to do next. Not to mention she was scared. He could hear her heartbeat. He needed to find a way to calm her. She was being very cooperative and he wanted to ease her fear.

"I won't hurt you. What's your name?" This seemed to work a little at least her heartbeat slowed a little though it was still beating fast.
"Hope. My name is Hope. I'm sorry, it's just I'm a little nerveous. I don't know what I should do. I've never done this before, but you probably knew that already."

He crossed the room and took her hand and led her over to the bed. He sat down and patted the bed next to him. She sat down beside him almost automaticlly.

"You have to trust me a little, Hope. I realize that may be a little hard considering what I'm asking from you, but I'm really not going to hurt you. You need to relax. If you don't it will hurt and I don't want to cause you pain since you're being so cooperative."
"I'm sorry. I don't believe you'll hurt me, it's just well, I'm picking up on your vibe and it's very strong. I'm trying to not let it bother me, but like I said, it's very strong."
"my vibe?"
"Yeah, it's kind of dark. Not dark like evil or anything, just dark."
"Oh, you're a sensitive."
"I'm a what?"
"A sensitive. Like you can pick up on people's auras and moods. You pick up on their energy. Some people have that ability. I think I can help you with that."

Andy tried to clamp down on his true nature. It was probably affecting her so much because he was a half-breed. She seemed to relax a little.
"How did you do that?" she asked.
"Easy, I just reigned in my energy a little. So are you ready?"
She took a deep breath and nodded. "Yes."
"It's probably best if you lay back on the bed. You might get a little dizzy."

She lay back on the bed and pulled herself onto the pillows. Andy positioned himself over her. For a moment he wasn't sure how to begin. He wasn't used to his prey being so cooperative. He let his instinct take over. He kissed her. She seemed suprised at first, but then she responded. Her lips were soft and her scent was even more intoxicating than before. For a moment he forgot what he was supposed to be doing then he kissed his way down to her neck. He let his fangs slide down. Then he sank them into her skin.

With the first taste he knew that she was his mate. He was suprised at first. He had not expected this. Juliet had just left him a few hours ago. He knew he should have at least asked her first but he had waited his whole life for this moment and he wasn't going to let it slip away. He did the only thing he could at the moment. He marked her. "Andy?" was the only thing she could say before she sank into unconciousness.
