Turning around, Charleen looked at him pacing. She said with sweetness in her voice, “Maybe it was Heaven, Tabbruis?”
Tabbruis stopped pacing and stood still. He was warmed hearing his given name coming out of her mouth with such kindness.
She said again, “Tabbruis… maybe it was Heaven?”
Tabbruis walked to her, touched her chin to bring it up, so he could look deep into her brown eyes. Tabbruis said ever so tenderly, “Semper tuus ero… means… I am forever yours.”
Tabbruis’ words were like honey to her. Charleen looked at his eyes of deep green and said, “Those are the most beautiful words I have ever heard, Tabbruis.”
All Tabbruis and Charleen knew was they had a memory. It was before they woke up on the Earth alone. They melted into an embrace.
Tabbruis rested his chin on Charmeine’s head. He said, “Do you want me to call you Charleen or Charmeine?”
She smiled wide, snuggled her head against his chest and said, “I would like you to call me by the name I was born with, Tabbruis.” He smiled and said, “Yes, Charmeine.”
Tabbruis and Charmeine realized they had a past. Together now, for some reason, they were alone no more.

Tabbruis thought of their kiss in the clouds and the way she looked at him. He put his hands on Charmeine’s cheeks and looked deep into her brown eyes. The sun was reflecting her golden hair around her face.
Tabbruis could not help it, it was more of a reflex but he leaned down very slowly. He hesitated for what seemed like forever over her lips and kissed her ever so lightly.
Tabbruis had to fight back the urge for his fangs to appear. With that thought, he pulled away from her. Tabbruis wanted to kiss her more but he was unsure of his control.
Charmeine looked at him with a confused look. She shook her head and said, “What’s wrong?”
Tabbruis could see the hurt in her eyes. He said softly, “Charmeine, I do not know if I can control my urges. I do not want to take any chances of hurting you.”
Charmeine said gently putting her hand on his face, “Tabbruis, believe me when I say, I have the same problem. I… don’t know why but I’m drawn to you. You quiet me and stir my passion all at the same time.”
Tabbruis smiled and held her face, “I could not have said it better. That is exactly how I feel about you.”

Tabbruis and Charmeine looked at each other with longing.
She made a frown and said, “Well, your hair keeps hanging in your beautiful green eyes.” She looked at his beautiful chestnut hair with all sorts of blonde and red highlights in it and swiped the bangs from his eyes.
His deep green eyes revealed his desire for her; they were black with pin-points of green.
Charmeine blushed all over her body.
Tabbruis could see her body blushing and his want to be with her was more ardent.
