The Real Christmas
John P.o.v
I look to my side to see her starting to wake up. I shakily burie my face in my hand and she sits up and rubs my back.
"John, are you ok?" I look at her and nod slowly.
"Just go back to bed, ok? Im gonna get a bath and stuff." She stops me as I get up anr looks at me worried.
"Im ok." I pull my hand back and go into the bathroom. What if that was something that would happen? What if the book is done? I just wanna kill myself after that. But I couldn't.
I shower quickly then see shes asleep again as I get dressed in our room. I then run down to my office and look through all my books.
It still had the same passages.
I didn't focas on anything but the fact she would never die. And we would just be together forever wouldnt we? I won't say anything, but if she doesnt tell me soon I'll just tell her im a vampire.
Still shaking I decide to wait for her to wake up well trying to calm down on the couch. I can't believe she was gone.
She comes down stairs in the same nightgown and robe and runs to grab my presents and puts them under the tree with mine for her.
I dont move from the couch and I just open my arms for her. She gets confused but hugs me. After a while she trys to pull away but i just pull her closer and nuzzle my face into her chest softly.
She rests her chin on my head and strokes my hair. "John, whats up?"
"I just love you so much." I kiss her deeply and I lay her down and every time she pulls back for air I kiss her again and again until finally she unbuckles my belt.

After we get back dressed I sit on the floor and pull her into my lap and kiss her cheek as we start opening presents from eachother. All of them were the same as the dream. My stumic turned when she took me to the attick. It was done the same as the dream. I start crying. I didn't realize at first but I was. She looks at me and frowns.
"John.."
"I love you more than anything in the entire world. You know that right?" I hug her and hold her close.
"I know, baby." She strokes my hair softly.
"How about we put the books on the shelfs and you help me hand up some lights and shit. It'll give us something to do."
"I have one more thing." As soon as she pulls the wrapped gift out I couldn't haddle it anymore. Everything goes black as I fall to the floor.

I wake up and feel a needle in my arm and my head pounding well my chest felt like a whole building was dumped on it.
I sit up as my blurry vision turns clear and I see her in a chair next to me holding my hand and laying he head on the bed. It seemed to be nighttime from the small crack in the blinds. I must have been out for quiet some time for it to be pitch black.
I then realize.... They were gonna fine out my heart beat was fake and that my hearts not actually beating.
I flip out and start pulling the needle from my arm and I get up not thinking about her head touching my leg. I jump up and get dressed as she wakes up.
"John what are you doing? Are you ok? Did the doctor say we could leave?" She stands up worried.
"Yeah we can can go now, darling." I grab her hand and rush us outside into the snow.
"John stop!" I stop and look down at her.
"Whats been with you! Your all nervous and now your leaving the hospital when you shouldn't be! What the fuck is going on!?" She yells finally showing me some sign she could stand up and be mad at something. I felt proud hearing her say something that wasn't a apology.
"When we get home I'll show you."

As soon as we get some I take her to my office and find the books where I talk about her. The 1956 passage even had the photo of us in paris from 1950.
"Anything to say about these?" I put the books open to the pages I mention her in each book by the years.
She reads them and the color in her face drains.
"How old are you, john.."
"I was born sometime before 1800 or something like that."
"You know im-"
"Yeah. I know that you left me to rot until I went mad and became a serial killer. Just because you couldn't stay for more than 5 years to find out I wasnt gonna die on you. But then again I met you because I was going to kill you for food because im a vampire but then," I suck in a breath. "Then after reading what your were working on I wanted to see it finished. So I faked it for a while until I realized I wasn't faking it anymore."
"Your the serial killer on the news.." She starts backing away and I stand there.
"Please dont run away from me again..."
She hugs me and I hold her close.
"Where you gonna tell me ever? Or were you gonna run again?" I whisper.
"I was gonna leave a note and leave.." She looks down.
I look out the window to the rising sun and then I walk into the kicthen and start to make coffee. After a minute she walks in and I smile.
"Mornong Darling, how did you sleep?" I ask and she smiles.
"Very well. How about you john?"
"Horrible."
She rolls her eyes and laughs. "What do you want for breakfast."
"Im not hungry." I shrug. And she nods.
I lay on the couch and sigh. We would be together forever now.
