Hi there everyone. Sorry its been a while but I've been sick and then school and then recitals and then bleh...I tried to start another fic which isn't coming along as nicely as this one but hey I was sick and thought "ah..what the heck."Let's just say I needed the two months I've spent NOT writing to get better. I hope I still have whatever it was that made you read my little story in the first place. So I guess this is part one of the conclusion to this fic. I thank everyone who read it, will read, and reviews it.

Onward!

Godric continued relating to us their story.

Lilly was different from the moment he turned her. She wouldn't eat, she wouldn't talk to him, nothing. All their conversations had been reduced to the nodding and shaking of heads and what couldn't be answered in those terms was left unanswered. Godric knew that soon she would fade away then he would be in the same situation as if he never turned her. He had ordered her never to meet the sun so that was off of the list of ways she would meet her final death, but the one thing he would never do force her to feed. He couldn't, not after what she had gone through. Still, he had to find some way to break her out of this masochistic phase. One thing in particular that Godric noticed is that Mae still continued to take her evening walks into the woods behind their home where she would meditate or pray. He thought the only way to finally get her to start talking to him again and finally accept what she was now was for him to be there with her talk to her even if she didn't want to hear, he would make her listen. She owed him that much.

One night immediately after rising Mae got herself dressed and went out for her walk in the woods without acknowledging anyone or anything. She hated using her new found skills to do anything so instead of racing into the forest she walked slowly finding renewed beauty in the world through her new eyes. Smelling things that never smelled as sweet before and hearing sounds up close that she was sure happened to be miles away.

Godric waited until she was completely immersed in the thick brush to quickly fly off to the spot he knew she would end up. Once she got there she could tell the spot held a different energy but couldn't exactly tell why. She sat on a stump in a clearing and removed her shoes revealing her bare feet. He watched her from behind a tree, as she then sloughed off her coat like an extra skin, her bare arms glowing in moonlight. She loosened her hair which had been braided and the plats turned into waves of raven colored hair that framed her heart shaped face. His gaze turned from one of determination into one of hunger and lust. He would say what he needed to then make love to her or which ever came first.

He walked from a tree to grab her from behind. Hesitating at first she stood up and struggled but when he held her tighter she recognized his smell and fell back into his arms. This embrace was what she was desperately missing, she knew it wouldn't be long now before she felt all of him again.

"Mae, I miss you." he began whispering.

"I haven't gone anywhere."

"But you have, even though I turned you, you still died in spirit and its only a matter of time before you fade away from me completely." he said as he rested his chin atop her head.

"I'm sure you must realize how difficult a change like this must be for me and I'm sure you know a million more people who would love to be in my position. I just wish that this didn't have to happen under the circumstances given to us. I would have loved to be turned by you...when I was ready. I didn't know I was going almost die and I didn't know the choice once presented to me would be so difficult to make."

He turned her around to face him and saw bloody tears streaming down her face. He licked them away hoping to make her smile. Which she did, then rested her head on his shoulders while he rubbed her back.

"I hate to think that these past weeks I have almost resented you for saving me and for trying to kill yourself. I just wasn't ready but I must live with this now and I'm glad I get to do it with you."

She took his hands and kissed them, giving each finger a light peck before she stopped to kiss him. An invitation he didn't dare refuse as this was the first time since he turned her that she let him touch her and vice versa.

He needed this time to wash all her remaining doubts away and to heal her. They stayed that way for a few minutes until she broke away suddenly realizing she no longer needed to stop to breathe. But she felt like this was as good a time as any to share a secret with Godric that she had never told anyone else. A secret that probably was the sole reason they were together in the first place.

He, still on the verge of taking her right then and there had to control himself and find the patience to listen.

"When I was a little girl, I had always heard stories of vampires and how they could never love anyone because they were not human."

Godric scowled at her teasingly, "But I always knew how foolish that sounded. Vampires once were human and so I never believed that tale. My grandmother who was an outcast to our family was in love with a vampire and knew that anyone, whether they are human or use to be human, could love. Her parents were afraid for her life and sent her around Louisiana and all of the south to get away from her undead suitor. What very few people knew about my grandmother is that she practiced voodoo. As an act of desperation she cursed herself and all the first born women of our family to smell of chocolate. Anyone who knew her would know that was her favorite sweet. Alas, she never got to blood bond with her love and so she cursed herself so that he could always find her no matter where she was. And the way I hear it, he always found her and later bonded with her. "

After hearing this Godric smiled and pulled her closer and kissed her. " Your curse is my blessing." he exhaled.

….Naomi's POV...

I was utterly amazed at the whole story. We chatted longer with my aunt and Godric for what seemed like forever. Parts of my life made sense now, My grandmother whom I've never even seen influenced my life in a way that made me so special. She's the reason my parents were strict with me, She's the reason I moved to Bon- Temps. She's the reason I met Eric...well her and a bit of destiny.

After they left Eric and I still had at least two more hours until he would have to rest.

We lay in bed and and do what we usually do on my nights off and perhaps any other night. Doing things I could never see myself doing even in my wildest dreams and none of it was out of lust but love the love that my grandmother, my aunt and myself have found. A love that I would want everyone I know to experience just once in their lives. And so it goes that he's my vampire and I'm his drug.

Okay, people that's all I got.
