[intxrfectorem-a]

Sorry, did you say something? I was trying to decide what to order.

[humanegwen]

I told you to pay attention to me, you dummy.

[formerpsychokiller]

I wouldn’t ask you to be a vampire with me if I didn’t want to spend eternity with you. 

[humanegwen]

And what happens if I say no? We break up?

[gradeafreak-deactivated20161014]

Just being honest, Gwen.

[humanegwen]

I appreciate your honesty.

for @humanegwen

happy anniversary, essie!

[gradeafreak-deactivated20161014]

Guess that’s why vampires and humans shouldn’t be in a relationship.

[humanegwen]

Thank you for the words of wisdom, Sam.

[formerpsychokiller]

I just can’t. Just like you love being human and having a whole future ahead of you, I love bein a vampire and having eternity ahead of me. Eternity to spend with the one woman I love. I can’t imagine myself living a handful of years just to lose you eventually.

[humanegwen]

Fine. For argument's sake, say I gave in and let you turn me. You’d want eternity with me?

[formerpsychokiller]

You don’t know who I am when I’m human. I hated who I was when I was human. I was weak, miserable, lost, until vampirism became my way out. I like who I am now, I like being a vampire. This is the Damon you fell in love with, the vampire version of me. Confident, strong, cocky Damon. I won’t be the same if I turn back into human.

[humanegwen]

I didn’t fall in love with a version of you, I fell in love with you. I don’t care how strong or cocky you are. I love the man that you are. I love the woman that you make me. I can’t imagine living for centuries and not getting bored of being alive. I want kids. I don’t want to have to hurt and kill people to survive.

[formerpsychokiller]

I don’t want to be with anyone else either, but we won’t be together at all if we don’t figure this out sooner or later. You either give up your life and turn into a vampire, or I give up what I am to be human again.

[humanegwen]

What’s so bad about being human? We could start a family.

[formerpsychokiller]

You do know we’ll never work like this, right? With you being human and me being a vampire. One day, sooner than I want, I’ll have to leave and you’ll have to move on with your life.

[humanegwen]

But I don’t want to be with anyone else. Only you.

[formerpsychokiller]

Wow. Honestly? I don’t know. I’ve been to caught up on trying to convince to turn that I really haven’t thought about that. What I do know is that I love you and I’ll love you for as long as I live.

[humanegwen]

You’re going to live forever. I’m lucky if I have fifty years left.

[formerpsychokiller]

Uh, okay. Go ahead.

[humanegwen]

When I’m old and wrinkly and gross.. what are you going to think about me?

[formerpsychokiller]

I’ll want to kiss you for… As long as we both live.

[humanegwen]

[She pulls away slowly.] This isn’t me initiating a fight, I promise. I just want to ask you a question.

[formerpsychokiller]

I love you too. Me too. I can’t kiss you when we’re arguing, I don’t like it.

[humanegwen]

I grant you my kisses for as long as you want them.

[formerpsychokiller]

Of course I didn’t have to, but I wanted to.

[humanegwen]

God, I love you. I’m glad we’re not arguing.

[formerpsychokiller]

Fine, I’ll wait. You won’t have your until then either anyway.

[humanegwen]

You didn’t have to get me anything.

[gradeafreak-deactivated20161014]

Oh. I’m sure he’s doing something, Gwen.

[humanegwen]

I hope so. I’m just praying he doesn’t bring up wanting me to be a vampire again.

[formerpsychokiller]

But why do I have to wait?

[humanegwen]

Because I’m your girlfriend, and I said so.
