Welcome Dawn...

Trent just looks at Dawn going to the bathroom, guessing she may need to be a bit alone now for clearing her mind, gathering herself. After all he's clearly aware of the fact what he just did is a "shocking treatment" but that was definitely needed, not just for free, for torturing her. And the fact he's convinced of that makes him feel not guilty at all, just worried about Dawn right now. Partly because... Well she doesn't seem to behave like new vampires usually do. Her human part seems to remain. And not just like if it was friendly poking from times to times... That was not a very good thing, that was more like an annoying friend who keeps on inviting himself when you absolutely don't want him at your party.
Still, he definitely felt more peaceful right now. More able to face troubles, now that he was sure Dawn was not going to mess with him anymore. He then crossed his arms, contemplating at the bathroom door, thinking again and again about Dawn... On a certain side it was not a real problem her not to be a whole soulless vampire yet. He did not really need her after all... Still, now that she was his wife, he could not help himself but hoping her, sooner or later, to be a real partner... And as long as she would not give up her human part, she would not really be... "his wife". Actually it was a kind of internal struggle, not daring to hope too much from that relationship. Because murdering Dawn would be the most problematic thing which could happen now, and that would maybe happen if she would come to disappoint him too much... So no hope is better.... Repeating to himself that warning he got from his previous relationships : "The closer I get the worse it becomes... the closer I get the worst it becomes"... Still he somewhat wants to hope things to happen differently that time. At last. At least for once...

It's while he was lost amongst those thoughts that he hears Dawn calling him for help. His worries just increase and, if he does not run, he still walks very fast straight to the bathroom, opening the door very carefully. While he was doing that, he suddenly realizes he should have been more paranoid and have a look at his hidden cameras first, in case of Dawn would have prepared a trap but... for some weird reasons, that hypothesis sounded very improbable to his ears right now.
Now he sees Dawn, laying on the floor, apparently being in plain emotional shock, slightly shaking all the members of her body like if it was over cold here. He gently and carefully kneels close to her, trying not to approach her too much but still being close enough to her for being able to talk with her by nearly whispering, in order not to shock her more. Once again, he did not feel guilty at all by seeing her in such state, but worried about Dawn, her future, how she would evolve.
He understands more or less that she is kinda asking him some help in order to clear things in her mind. He then approaches very slowly one of his hands to Dawn's hand, stroking it very slowly while he begins to speak very slowly, nearly whispering.

-I guess... I guess that may be more than hard to live, over tough to go through, all the changes while those last two days... I also went through it. Being a vampire really hurts at first. It takes time to become a vampire, integrate what all this implies, that's normal... But from now on, I'm here for you. I'm your husband, and as such I'll stay here for you, trying to do the most I can for helping you. Sorry for what I just did but... it was for protecting you. I want to help you, I don't want to mess with you, but therefore I'd like you to try to help me and not to mess with me.. But since the very precise time you became my wife, you made me the being on this earth the more ready to sacrifice himself for you, doing his best for protecting you... The one who loves you the more in the world and wants to cherish you as the most precious thing down here...

He then grabs her two hands and moves his head in order straightly to stare at Dawn's eyes, then he takes a deep breathe and swallows his saliva.

-You are for me the most beautiful thing I ever got, and so I want to make my best for being the most beautiful thing you ever got. I know that it can seem stupid since, in a certain way, right now you can feel like i'm the only thing you can get anyway, but I don't want you to feel that way, I want you to feel like if... well, I want you to feel like I fullfill all your desires and needs. You may also tell me when I behave a way you don't like, just I did before. That may not mean I promise I'll stop doing it since sometimes I'm forced to do some certain things but still, i'll try my best to make you...happier than ever.

He then swallows again his saliva, trying to look the deeper possible inside Dawn's mind with his eyes, trying to convince her the more possible. By doing that he was also completely into what he was saying, more sincere than ever, convincing himself of the real aspect of each single of his words. It's like if, right now, he feels and means each single word he was enunciating. And as he was saying that, it was just confirming to himself the importance Dawn could get in his life, and how much he had to get all of his plans happen fine in order not to lose her.

-Because... I love you...I'm not asking you to tell me this in return, I obviously hope you also feel so but I'll wait the time which will be needed for that too... Just... From the moment you made me your husband... Well... Now without you... everything here and...

He takes Dawn's left hand and makes it touch his chest.

-... here would just fall apart... you see ?

Trent was staring at Dawn now, after having gently releasing her hands, hoping for a sign of answer, something. He just made his best and hoped that would, if you can say things like this, "get paid in return".

Dawn seems surprised to see Trent coming fast, but he was very carefully, sitting next to her. She only feels his presence and be more reassured.

* You see, he comes…*

She’s not finished to be surprised by him, taking slowly his hand and start speaking…He was so nice…That it’s disturbing for her, first she was in doubt she hears him but take care about what he does.
Maybe he try to tame her, or only be sincere how knows expect him?

She start to became more calm, her head doesn’t hurt her like a few minutes ago, it’s like his words care about Dawn and touch her death heart, it was like for the last time her heart beat again but she knows it doesn’t.

Once he stops speaking, he looks straight in her eyes, first she try to look at something else but she always stops on Trent beautiful eyes.
The mouth a little bit open, she’s surprised to see him taking her other hand, he really touch her, her eyes still with tears this time for what he said, the voice go away to stay the vampire part…He win because in some way he really takes the attention of the two part of the girl…But in some way maybe her human part is going away forever? Who knows?

When he said “I love you” she shivers, tight a little bit his hand and when he takes one of her hand to touch his chest…It’s was like an electroshock, feels like they’re connect by a link. Their blood pact? Maybe… Imagination? Maybe… The fact is now Dawn really love Trent and knows that, come what may, they gonna stay together! Hope forever but who knows?

He stops speaking, Dawn wonder “why?” but…He can’t talk all the rest of the night, he needs her to say something, now that she feels fine but a little bit tired, she only want to stay with him and gonna sleep today and not know in the middle of the night.

-Your…Your words sound beautiful, I know your feeling alone…And that’s the reason for me to never let you alone or go far away. Like you said you’re my husband and I’m happy to be your wife, but, maybe be we’re gonna be more than that, no? I maybe say some stupid things because I’m a little tired and I asked you for forgive me about this and no…Don’t try to move me in the bed I don’t wanna sleep I just wanna be with you here…If I have to loose my soul for that, well my soul go away now.

She’s just smile and comes a little closer from him, still laying down and staring at him, caress his check with her hand.

-I don’t want you to be hurt, and I want to be a perfect wife…But well…I’m gonna learn how because it was the first time and, I hope, the last one. But…honey, please, tell me when you gonna say something that can makes me cry like now, I don’t wanna do it in front of you.

She laughs a little bit and then, she comes slowly closer to him and kisses him on the lips.

-I know, I love you too, I can tell you.

And she hugs him, because she can’t hold on of that.

Trent remains staring at Dawn for a few seconds as she is answering him, like if he can not believe what he's hearing. Then when she comes to hug him and kiss him, he's completely amazed. And reassured. At least he did all his best to get all his chances to get Dawn, and that seems to have paid even more than what he was hoping for.
Immediatly after Dawn kissed him, he slowly takes her face in his hands, stroking her cheeks with his thumbs and then kisses her back, with all the tenderness and the passion he can. Then he speaks again, very slowly, like if each word he is enunciating is precious.

-Thank you... Even in my greatest dreams I was not expecting you to tell me that now... So once again, I'm very happy and proud to be your husband and I'll do my best to make you feel the best...

Then he gets to laugh a bit, like if he just had a joke in mind, which happened indeed.

-And well, if you don't wanna move from her to the bed, I still can move the blankets and the pillows in order to make the place more comfortable for you....

He kisses her again.

-And your lips are the most delicious thing on the earth I ever tasted, beautifully red, hypnotizing, gorgeous as hell, just perfect for the girl who owns them...

He hugs her again, stroking her back, smelling her hair, and sighing dreamily. On that precise time, he was not worried anymore, just like if he was floating on some clouds, forgetting about everything else which would soon enough come to call him back to reality.
