Adulthood

A year later, me and Hamish were still together, still in love like always. It was a sunny afternoon and I was on my way to Hamish's house, since it was his sevententh birthday.

I got out of my car, and started walking down his drive-way. I had so many thoughts muddled up inside my head like.. would he like his present? Or does he still love me? Will there be girls at his party prettier then me?

I hated it when he hung around girls that were so much prettier then me. It made me feel jealous, envious. And I couldn't help but feel like he liked someone else.

I sighed, as I knocked on the door.

The door swung open shortly after to find Hamish in a sleek black suite.

"Eva!" He said throwing his arms around me. "You came!" He laughed.

"Ofcourse I did." I said, pulling away from his hug. "Happy birthday!" I smiled, giving him the gift.

"What is it?"

"Open it." I grinned happy as ever. He peeled the wrapping off to expose a MoonStone necklace, shaped into a cross.

"Woah, Eva.. you shouldn't have.." He said, taking it all in. "It must have cost a furtune, it's so beautiful." He smiled, pulling me back into a hug.

"I'm glad you like it." I said, taking the necklace and putting it around his neck.

"I love it!" He replied, kissing my forehead, "Just like I love you."

I looked at him for a minute, taking in his good features, slender body.. and everything- but then I noticed, he hadn't aged since his last birthday, last year.

I frowned, wondering how that could be? Maybe the potion worked, wait.. no it couldn't of had, if it really was the immortal juice I created in Science that year, then he would of atlest aged a year straight away.. but he didn't. And so it didn't work. But how, and why is he not aging? I was confused, I shivered at the thought.. what is he? Words snapped me out of my thoughts-

"Eva, what's wrong?"He asked, a questioning look on his face.

"You.. haven't aged... Hamish...."I stutterd.

"Come with me." He gestured towards the door to his room. Once inside, he sat down on the bed, with his face rested in his hands. Sighing.

"Um.." I felt lost for words, I didn't know what to say, I was confused.. scared..

"Eva, we need to talk."

"No Hamish!! Please, don't break up with me!" I squealed, tears forming in my eyes. No, he can't do this! It's been so long, we're engaged, he can't-

"Eva, i'm not, it's just.."

"What?"

"The reason for why I haven't been aging is because I'm an immortal already.." He frowned, guilty written all over his face.

"What? You serious! You can't be?"

"When you became an immortal, that was the same time I did, you see, you created the potion, and you aged a whole year, and now you don't age at all. After you made it, you threw it away, in the garbage, and I just so happened to pick it out, and I inspected it closely, but I didn't know what It was, so I drank it.. and ever since-"

"You haven't aged?"

"No.." He sighed, looking away.

"Why didn't you tell me?" I asked, confused.

"I honestly didn't know until today."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, when I aged a year, I was completely astonished, but I didn't know what the heck had happened, and I didn't think that I was actully immortal like you. Just today when you said I hadn't aged, everything came back to me. The stories you told me of how you became an immortal and so on, and now everything made sense, that's why I didn't tell you."

"It's okay babe.." I whispered, pulling him into an embrace.

"You'll always have me forever."

" I know, and I'm really happy about that. I don't know what I'd do without you." He smiled, caressing my face.

"Kiss me...?" I whispered, feeling butterflies, cheeks flushing.. And breathing heavily..

He scooted closer to me on the bed, and wrapped his arm around my back, he then placed his lips on mine. His kiss was so sweet, so soft, and his lipbalm tasted of cherry. His scent smelt so strong, so illuring, so yum. I closed the distance between us, and deepend the kiss. Our breathing got heavy, as we kissed. And I had to finally part the kiss so I could take a breath.

He pulled me back and our lips joined once more, we kissed until we finally got exhausted of everything and feel asleep on his bed; His arm around me.

I dreamed of a strange group of people surrounding me, holding guns, glaring at me.. some about to shoot. They looked familiar, like people I knew.. but I couldn't put a name on them. One of them shot me, and I watched as the bullet surged through me in slow motion. It was all so real. It scared me.

I awoke that morning, to the sound of a scream, a scream; that escaped my lips.

"Eva!" ..

[Dorryy]

Wow, you just skipped a whole year? OMg, oh well.
Anyway, moving on. Great chapter btw.

[WayOath]

Ok I have to give credit where credit is due. The first part was made up of great detail. There were bits of it comprised throughout this chapter. I only found one quirk, weren't they suppose to be at Hamish's party. Lol, I guess they ditched the whole night. Ha ha, but anyway, your chapters are getting longer and filled with more detail. Keep working on it girl, and eventually it will come to you like the breeze.

[Aynsley]
