Our Promise Of Eternity

Chapter 11

We were in complete silence as I heard his steady but strong heartbeat. I felt him wipe my tears away and wrap his arms around my waist to pull me closer. I opened my eyes to see his were closed, taking in deep breaths. I slowly started to put space between us but his grip on my waist was firm. I leaned in to slowly brush a kiss on his forehead, which made him release me and open his eyes.

"My cold body will not give you any warmth," I told him as I pulled away to take a tray of food from the bed and place it in front of him. He grabbed the plate and started eating without looking at me.

After a while in silence he said," it might not give any warmth but it gives comfort"

I looked to smile at him, catching a glimpse of those amber eyes that were full of curiosity. " Does that mean your parents died? Are you the only royal family? What about me am I a vampire too?" he went on, blurting it out so fast he got tongue-tied. Surprised, I laughed at his eagerness to know more, and to think he wanted nothing to do with us.

"Yes unfortunately my mother had died giving birth to me and father died right after I never thought to ask how though, so my sister Hisana raised me. The Kuchiki's are the only royal family that has ruled the night world for over thousands of years now but there's a under court of clans that are in charge of sections and report back to me."

I watched him finish the last bite of his breakfast. He stood up to stretch and yawned. I also got up and copied his actions.

"Come we can go for a walk as we talk" I said and walked out of the room knowing he was following.

We walked for about a block when I notice I was still in my school uniform which reminded me that I forgot about school. I guess I would take the day off since it's late already but then I would have to go home right when school ends, knowing Orhime will stop by.

"Were here," she said turning to look at me, her violet eyes catching the rays of the sun. It was a small park filled with cherry blossom trees with a lake right next to it. She started walking under the trees shade as I walk in the sunlight.

"You never told me what I was," I told her, making her stop as she bit her lip.

"It's complicated …and it'll sound crazy to you," she said averting her eyes away from me to look at the sky.

"Yeah like hearing you're the ruler of all vampires isn't" I retorted back. She gave me a small frown but then took a deep breath.

"Your part vampire and part Lycan…I really don't know how it works but there are many that are mix so you wont be the odd one out…"she said biting her lip once again, frowning at her own response. I stopped walking to take in what she had said. It wasn't possible was it? I mean a Lycan was a stretch. What about my parents? "Your dad is a Lycan and your mother is a vampire. That's why you can't touch silver, it's a lycans greatness weakness," she told me.

Panicking I blurted out "Does that mean I'm going to change in a full moon or will I not? I mean what's going to happen to me? Why can I walk in the sun? And if I can't touch silver what about the necklace?" I heard her laugh but when I gave her a glare she stopped trying to cover it by coughing. "I'm serious"

"I' sorry but your reaction was funn- ahem...I mean no you wont change in a full moon and you can walk in the sun because of the contrast between the two different cells lets you. Now the necklace you can touch because the blood overlaps the silver. Think of the good side you have the basic which are strength, speed, high senses, quick healing, something that both races have and plus after a certain age you start aging slowly. "

I looked at her disbelief. How could she say this so naturally without worrying that she sounds like a person who lost their mind? Wait, I looked at her up and down does that mean she also stopped aging. She looked at me with a suspicious look.

"What age di-"

"That's none of you business," she said cutting me off and started walking.

"You said you'd answer any questions I ask"

"Of your past, my age has nothing to do with it"

I walked fast to catch up to her.

"Yeah you probably stop growing when you were twelve," I whisper to myself thinking she wouldn't hear me when she suddenly turned around and glared at me.

"I can hear you, you fool and I didn't stop at age twelve for your information" she said in a huff as I saw her cheeks were flushed. I put up my hands as if I was surrendering.

"Okay fine. So how long does it takes us to age?"

"One year for us is… twenty years for humans"

"Then that means-"

"Your friends will die way before you"

~'\{*.*}/'~

I turned to look at his stun face, as he was unable to process what I just told him. I sighed and pulled him to sit on the grass under the shade of the tree.

"What about my parents and siblings if I have any?" he asked me still in daze.

"The concept still apply's to them" I told him. "This is why we don't associate ourselves with humans that and every time we try to live together they end up killing us"

"This is all hard to take in," he told me as he frowned and looked around the park. I got up and pretend to dust off my dress.

"Wait, you said my father knew I was alive, does that mean he was in charge in finding me?" He asked, as his voice grew louder in anger.

I hesitated before answering him. "Yes I had ask him to search for you…but thinking about it now I think he made the right choice, though he could have told me" the minute I said that he looked up at me with a disbelief expression. He was about to say something but I place a finger on his lips and kneel right in front of him. "If he would have report back to everyone you had no memory then he would have no choice but to eliminate you. It's a code that we go by, if one would be threat to our world we must act right away"

"I was just nine. He could have claim me then I wouldn't have spent eight years alone!"

I got up pulling him up with me and started to walk back to the house. My arm linked with his.

"The human doctors would ask questions, the police would get involve and ask more questions then there's our world if you were to be bought back in it at that time you would have end up being killed and I wouldn't have been able to do anything about it"

{^.^}/'

We walked in silence. I was still trying to take in the information when I started to feel light headed so I shook my head thinking it would go away but I was wrong. I saw Rukia look at me with concern eyes.

"I'm fine just a little dizzy" I told her but that didn't ease her one bit.

"We'll continue tomorrow, to much information might cause you to have another black out. You can rest at the house and maybe tomorrow you can meet your parents …if you want that is" she said with hope. I nodded my head wondering if I should just tell her if we can go another day, I was still unsure whether I'm ready or not. Once we were in front of the gate Rukia stopped walking and hid behind me. I looked straight ahead to see a short white hair boy wearing jeans and a white t-shirt with a frown on his face. He turn to look at me as his turquoise eyes narrowed at me with suspicion.

"RUKIA KUCHIKI DON'T YOU DARE HIDE FROM ME!" I heard him yell.

"Oh crap" Rukia said behind me. I was about to ask whom the person was when she grabs my arm and pull me into run. "Get …ready"

We started running slowly but then after we picked up the speed it wasn't long when I felt I couldn't keep up with her anymore, but her tight grip on my wrist pulled me to keep going. Then I notice we were coming in and out of view. Running to I don't know where or how, but only feeling the wind as we ran faster. Rukia turn to look back at me as her long raven hair flowed behind her, hearing her laughter ring in my ears. The moment was indescribable, breath taking, it made me feel safe, happy and for the first time in eight years I felt I belonged.

Ah hope you guys liked it oh and I forgot to mention my internet isn't working anymore so yeah I can only use the computer at school but the problem is that my sister is with me the whole time and she doesn't know I do this so its going to be difficult
