I grumbled as I turned into something comfy and cold. My throat was dry and my eyes were extremely sore. That meant I had been crying for some reason. I opened my eyes slowly to see that just above the comfy stone was a man. Oh wait, the stone was a chest that belonged to Frank. I sighed and sat up looking around. Not my bedroom, no where I recognised. Actually, the room felt really warm...Temperature wise. I laid down and cuddled into Frank, letting him cool me down with his...Deadness.

"Morning" He whispered pulling hair away from my face gently. I looked around, trying to figure out where I was. The sun was shining bright, entering the room making it warmer.

"Where are we" I whispered poking his chest. It calmed me a little, and amused me.

"Secret location, think of it as a safe house. No one can get us here" He smiled and a thought popped into my head. What about my mum? What if Gerard gets to her?

"MY MUM" I shouted falling off the bed. Everything seemed so...Light and heavenly! I stood up and Frank was right in front of me, holding my arms still and sighing.

"I have people watching her, she's safe. Think of it as protection. You're Gerard's main priority. He'll come after you now he knows your mum is safe. It's hard to track you in a place like this. You're safe with me okay?" He smiled pecking my lips.

"Will I ever see her again?" I whispered, searching his eyes for a real, honest answer. He stared at me blankly and didn't even reply. "She'll worry Frank. She'll miss me"

"We made her forget you. She doesn't know she has a daughter" I felt my heart shatter. She doesn't know who I am. "I know you're upset, it's for the best though" I felt numb. My own mother...I loved her. I loved her so much and now she doesn't know who I am.

"Let me go" I whispered and he did slowly. I walked off slowly, it looked like a holiday home. There was so many windows and glass doors. I walked out and the heat hit my skin instantly. There was a little beach and the sea at the end of the garden. I walked and sat on the sea front, letting the water hit my feet gently, the water was so clear and the surroundings were beautiful. I just felt empty and dull though. Frank's made it so he was the only person that mattered in my life now. I didn't know if that was a good or bad thing.

"I'm sorry" He wrapped his arms around me and I raised an eyebrow. How could he come out in this sun? Back home it was sunny, but no where as near this sunny. "Forgive me Phoebe" He whispered holding me tight.

"How can you come out in this?" I whispered looking down at his skin, it was crumbling. "FRANK GET INSIDE NOW!" I screamed standing up and looking at him. He looked so weak, so sad. His skin was crumbling...I grabbed him and ran inside with him. I dropped him on the sofa and looked at him, he was burnt bad. I dropped to my knee's and held his hand gently, crying into it. "You fucking idiot" I sobbed and heard him chuckle weakly.

"I love you too" I looked up to see him smiling. "That hurt"

"No shit" I sniffed, "You need blood?" He nodded and I brought my wrist to his mouth. He quickly shook his eyes going wide eyed.

"I wouldn't hurt you...I prepared...Blood bottle in the fridge" He chocked out and I ran to the fridge, grabbing a random bottle. I ran back, flicked the top off and shoved it in his mouth. I could have been gentler but I was angry at him. Angry he took my mum's memories of me away, angry he nearly died just to hear I'd forgive him.

"Have I got any clothes?" I chuckled and he nodded. "Oh and, I do love you. No matter how bad of an asshole you are to me. Even when you left me, I couldn't stop thinking about you. Stupid vampire" I chuckled and he cupped my face gently.

"I'm sorry I hurt you. I'm sorry I left you, I'm here with you until you die old. Unless you want to be like me of course" He smiled, "I couldn't stop thinking about you either. That's why I had to come back, and I had to kick Gerard's ass. He won't touch you ever again, I won't let that happen. I'd risk my life to save yours" He frowned slightly and I nodded pecking his lips.

"Silly vampire Frankie, no running out into the sun again okay? I'll come to you. No dying on me now!" I smiled and curled up into him, he seemed to heal quickly which was good. If he died on me now, I'd have no one. I don't think I could handle that. No mother, no love, I'd just break. Frank is my life support machine, if he turns off then I die. Stupid strong love. I guess it does make you do crazy things after all.
