\u201cIf you\u2019re worried about hurting me emotionally, then don\u2019t. You \u2026 can\u2019t, really. I\u2019ve been all those places,\u201d she looked down, picking at the grass, \u201cheard every possible hurtful thing. If it\u2019s about the vampirism \u2026 I think the only person who can ease your mind on that is yourself. I mean, so long as you can\u2019t accidentally turn me, I don\u2019t really care. Other than that, just don\u2019t lie to me, and we\u2019re good.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Victor\u2019s head snapped up and his eyes were hopeful. \u201cI\u2019m sorry you\u2019ve been to all of those places and if you\u2019re willing to put up with me\u2026.I\u2019d love to be with you.\u201d<\/p>\n

He had a distant look in his eyes for a moment then he turned to her. \u201cIt\u2019s impossible for it to happen accidentally. Even if I bit you, you wouldn\u2019t turn. You\u2019d have to drink my blood\u2026So long as I don\u2019t feed you blood, which I don\u2019t see happening\u2026\u201d He stopped realizing he was rambling like an idiot. \u201cIt just could never happen on accident.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBe with me?\u201d Summer\u2019s voice went up on a squeak. \u201cYou want to \u2026 but I\u2019m not \u2014 I mean, you\u2019re too \u2026 um.\u201d She was trying to hide a shy, surprised smile, ducking her head. \u201cI thought we were still talking about being friends,\u201d she murmured.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Victor blushed, something he rarely did. \u201cWell\u2026.umm..I..ahh\u2026\u201d For the first time in a long time he was at a loss for words. \u201cWell, uh, you had said something about wanting to be more than friends..? And I\u2019m too what? You\u2019re not what?\u201d He was worried now that he\u2019d gone too far and in the wrong direction.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“… I expected you to say no to that. It’s the way my life is.” Summer pulled up some more grass, hair falling around her face. “Honestly, Victor, nobody wants to be with someone who can truly tell if they’re lying. I know you say different, but I’m just not really a likable person. At least most people don’t seem to think so.” She glanced back up, through the waves of red hair. “That’s not a ‘no,’ by the way. It’s more of a ‘I don’t understand what you’re thinking’.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
