the walls of this house.” Her reasoning seemed logical, but she didn’t mention the date in her reasoning. I didn’t want to discourage her, so I guess my plan would just have to wait until our next day off. I just hoped Hades didn’t decide to show up, with some grand gesture, to steal her away from me before we could have our date.
    I cleared my throat of my dubious thoughts. “Great. That’s perfect; I’ll be there with you every step of the way.” I hoped my ambivalence didn’t stand out.
    “Thank you, Ben, but I do think I need to eat before we leave and maybe stock up in a thermos.” She waited for my acknowledgment. I just nodded my head.
    “Good.” She started down the hallway, back to the white room and closed the door behind her.
    I didn’t understand what had just happened. She had come in here and completely threw me off.
    One thing is for sure, I will not take advantage of her during her bloodlust moments. If I do, she will definitely hate me and think that all I want is her, sexually. I wouldn’t let that happen because I need her like oxygen, and losing her would be like trying to live in a world with no air. I need her to know that she completes me and that I have completely fallen for her in just the short time that I’ve known her. A single touch from her can make my non-beating heart flutter. I know what I must say and do to spend infinity with her.

    We rode in our bikes together to work. I walked into the locker room with my helmet under my arm and my bag crisscrossed over my shoulder. I found my bag in the spot I left it in at Ben’s house before Catherine gave me back to Hades. I was happy she was one person I didn’t have to worry about since Kevin staked her.
    It felt good to be back at the hospital with my mind off the two men that I want. I called to see if Dawn was coming into work and she was, of course. She wanted to escape her sister, Amy, whom she had showed around the city, all day. Dawn was forcing Amy to go back home since she works during the night and usually sleeps during the day. I didn’t get why she wanted her to leave, she seemed nice. Maybe Dawn has something to hide and worried that Amy might spill it. I’d have to talk to her about that sometime during the night. I wish I could have stayed and talked more, but in just those few minutes I was around her, I started craving her blood. I must kick this bloodlust habit.
    Ben decided to join us in going back to work. I couldn’t remember the last time I had been here, but I knew it had been awhile and it was embarrassing. I saw the looks. I knew I looked different to them and the episode of hurling in front of everyone loomed.
    I’d had an eerie feeling since we left Ben’s house, but it wasn’t enough to make me want to stay there. I just hoped that I would be ok since most, if not all; my patients will likely be bleeding.
    Ben had given me a couple of cups of blood and told me to keep a mask nearby, in my pocket or around my neck, to block the smell of blood if it became too strong. Plus, my fangs might pop out and God knows I didn’t want that to happen.
    Dawn was in her typical spot in front of her locker in a yoga position.
    “Toni!” She shrieked, jumping up from her seated position
    I walked over her way as Ben headed to his locker.
    “How do you feel? Hungry?” Dawn asked with a concerned look on her face. I knew that she was deep down frightened that I would snap and kill everyone in the hospital. I hadn’t been a vampire that long and that was a possibility.
    I giggled, “No I’m fine.” Her wide eyes relaxed and she pulled me into a hug as I dropped my helmet on the floor.
    “I am so glad. I have so much to tell you,” she blurted.
    “Yeah, like what’s up with your sister Amy?” She pushed back from the hug.
    “Shhh don’t say that too loud.” Dawn looked around to see if anyone was listening.
    “Oh, shit,” Dawn, squealed.
    The door to the locker room opened
