A newborn vampire by the name of Tobias Brandon Sexton kicked a rock as he walled down the streets of Volterra. He hated how they didn't trust him enough to let him go get his own meal. He was a member of the Volturi but he wasn't treated like one. That just wasn't fair!

As he swung his arm flames came out and he cringed a bit. That couldn't have been the reason why they weren't allowing him to go and get his own meal... could it? He continued kicking the rock until he came to the Volturi guard house and made a mental note to ask Mercedes why he wasn't allowed to go out and get his own meal.

He strode through the guard house until he came to Mercedes' Room. He attempted to knock quietly, but it only succeded making a noise that would be just under any Vampire's hearing range. So he knocked harder and louder putting a hole in the door, which was somethimg that he was trying not to do. He looked through the new 'window' that he had made.

"Oops... My bad..."

Mercedes Gregory had changed someone not long ago. She had been suprised when she came to the Volturi about it that they hadn't killed her or him. She was in her room laying on the bed in there when she heard someone knock at the door. Wonder who it is? She thought to herself mostly sarcastic, the only person that ever came to her room was Toby. She loved seeing Toby, she was in love and that she knew from the day she changed it. It all seemed so clear, like it had happened today but it hadn't. She smiled as she got off the bed and went over to the door when the knocks got louder she knew for sure it was Toby. She tried to get to the door quicker than she had because she knew if he knocked any louder he would put a hole through her door. And she'd been right, she opened the door. "Thanks Toby." she said with a little laugh.

"thanks Toby."

He laughed alongside her as he wrapped his own arms around jer. He was wearing the same outfit he had worn on the plane over to Italy, or as he liked to call it the hours of temptation. He had spent most the plane rode squeezing Mercedes hand as he tried to fight the urge to stick his teeth into the hostess' neck. Covering his torso was one of his highschool football uniforms. It was mainly navy blue with white stripes and a white number seven on the back. Over his legs he wore a pair of black jeans. On his feet he wore a pair of white nikes with three black stripes.

"I'd fix it for you but I'm afraid that I'll make the whole bigger. You have to admit thougj that I'm slowly getting better."

Before she had a chance to answer he placed a kiss on her lips. He learned a bit more every day about the world that he had been placed into, the world that never slept. Of course he didn't mind not beibg able to sleep, you could get more things done when you weren't sleeping or you could make love all night. When that thought occured to him he smiled and kissed her again. One thing he didn't know was that female Vampires could still become pregnant.

"I love you, Mercedes."

"I'd fix it for you but I'm afraid that I'll make the whole bigger. You have to admit though that I'm slowly getting better." Tobias said and Mercedes just nodded, she loved hearing his voice without hers interrupting or something. She smiled at Tobias, hearing him say that he loved her meant the world to her. When he held her, she got this warm feeling and got butterflies that wouldn't go away. "I love you too, Toby." she said to him. Tobias was his name but from the day they met she said she would call him Toby and she'd only ever called him that.

The day Mercedes fell for Toby was the most terrifying day of her life, she kept thinking the Volturi would kill her and him. She would never have forgave herself if she had to watch Toby die. She shook the the thoughts from her head and smiled at Toby, she kissed him once and then realized they were in her door way. "Would you like to come in?" she asked.

While she was still close he placed a hand on her cheek. For some reason he couldn't stay still. He wanted needed her, and he had to have her right now.

"I love you too, Toby. Do you want to come in?"

His smile was threatening to break his not so fragile face. Although he wasn't quite sure what coming in she meant. He'd like both of them though.

"In more ways than one, you know I'd love to come in[/] sweetheart."

Mercedes smiled at what Toby said, but she wondered if he was serious or just saying that. She backed up so Toby could come in and once he had she shut the door behind him. She pushed Toby up against the door she'd just shut, she did it gently though so he wouldn't break her door as well. She kissed his cheek and she moved in closer to Toby, her body up against his. She then kissed his neck and then his lips. The kiss on the lips was passionate... made with lots of love. Mercedes pulled away slightly, "What do you want to do?" she asked him.

When she stepped away he cautiously stepped in through the door. Each move he made he had to think about. One wrong move and she'd slap him. He was surprised though whn she gently forced him against the door and began kissng him rapidly and pationatly. As she did so he ran his hands down her slim lined body and when they got as far as they could get without him bending down he placed them on her hips.

"I want to show you how much I love you. I can still get an erection... Right?"

Mercedes nodded, "Yes, you can." she said. Then it occurred to her, why was he wondering this, she thought she knew why but she didn't want to say anything about it so she asked, "Why do you wanna know?" she smiled and kissed him on the neck after that kiss she put her body right up against his once more. She kissed him on the lips passionately but getting slightly wild with the kiss, using a bit of tongue and softly biting on his lower lip. She stopped biting on his lower lip and using tongue, seeing as most of the guys she'd been with didn't like that but then again she hadn't been with many guys and the ones she had been with she didn't keep but Toby was a keeper.

"Yes you can. Why do you wanna know."

He smiled and kissed her on the side of her neck as he undid the first button on her shirt.

"I want to explore more than the tid bits you've allowed me to. I want to make love with you."

He kissed her again this time on the lips.

Mercedes didn't know what to say but she knew she would do anything for Toby and if he wanted to make love then hell why couldn't they. Mercedes smiled and undid her next two buttons, then she kissed Toby on the neck and then the lips. "I love you, Toby." she said to him and then she took off his shirt.

Toby's eyes began to sparkle with lust as she undid two of the buttons on her shirt. They had gone through quite alot together already in his short second life, yet they hadn't done it yet. He loved her more than blood. More than he could have ever loved his biological mother had she kept him. He had begun kissing her jaw line as she spoke.

"I love you, Toby."

He stopped kissing her jaw line to help her get rid of his shirt, then he went and undid the last of the buttons on her own shirt before sliding it off of her. He kissed what he had not kissed of her jaw line before deciding that he should reply to her.

"I adore you Mercedes. I have no idea how I'm going to live if I ever lose you."

His hands craddled his hips as he continued to kiss her. She was his everything. He wouldn't even be here in Italy if it wasn't for her and he really did enjoy living in Voltera. His lust sparkled eye checked to see ic there was anyone coming through her new window as privacy was a hard thing to come by in the guard house, before pulling her behind the bed where no one would be able to see them when they actually started.

- - - - -

The lust that had made his eyes sparkle had fadded as he lay on the floor next to her. Absent mindedley he stroked her hair as he was lost in the wonder that had had been there first time.

"Wow...."

He had jad no idea what to say other than that. He stopped stroking her head for a moment and kissed the top of her head as he knew that she was still awake as Vampires didn't sleep. He had noticed several changes in the way he acted and his abilities since he had been changed, one of those things was the fact that he was extreemly protective of Mercedes but then again was that such a bad thing?
