OK, I officially hate the library staff. They have absolutely no books on vampire romances that I haven’t already read. How am I supposed top get my fix now?

In annoyance I stomped out of the library muttering highly intellectual things, such as “Meh meh meeehh,” and “Prr stupid people wanna books,”, forgot such essentials like looking where I was going, bulldozered my way into a nice solid male chest, knocking us both down the steps to the library entrance onto the cold hard ground. He took most of the thwack that resulted in us hitting the ground. Scrambling to get off the poor man and apologise in a coherent way that didn’t make me sound like I was on the run from the men in white jackets, I suddenly realised who it was I had steamrolled.

Fate and bloody cliché meant it was Sabyn.

He sat up with the air of someone who was blinking his eyes in surprise (though whether or not he actually was is unknown due to the dark glasses).

“Oh God I’m sorry it just stuff and so, well I didn’t bugger fall are you hurt?” I said, only realising afterwards that what I had said was a stream of consciousness, not a coherent sentence. Damn my mushy brain becoming all mushified when I fall on top of gorgeous damn it VAMPIRE.

He took his sunglasses off, possibly to check if they were broken, or maybe to make me melt into an undignified gooey heap at being allowed a glimpse of his mysterious eyes. Which is obviously what I did. It is the ONLY response permitted to a girl who is hopelessly in love with an unobtainable and, did I mention, EVIL VAMPIRE guy.

I’d never seen his eyes before. I’d seen him push his glasses to the top of his head in the I’m-such-a-cool-surfer-dude-have-a-holiday-fling-with-me-bitch (something and someone I am never going to do again, and that no power on this Earth will make me tell) stance, though I personally feel that it is a subconsciously cool display of practicality, but hey – I’m in love with the guy, I’m not about to express the opinion he’s a jerk, am I? But I’d never seen his eyes. Even doing my not-strictly-speaking-stalking, whereby I just turned up in all the places he is known to frequent and hang around hoping he’ll show.

And they are blue. Very light blue. So light, they are almost white. And so beautiful…

It was then I realised he was trying to talk to me. Well, he was talking to me. But I was kinda busy being hypnotised by his wonderful eyes.

So I changed my enraptured gaze to his mouth, which was also very very hot. He seemed to be worried about something. Though what, I couldn’t tell. The world around me faded away, leaving just me and Sabyn standing in the cold.

And that’s when he kissed me.
