"Do you regret what we did, Xander?"
Blue eyes bore into mine. How was i suposed to tell the woman that I loved so dearly that I would never in a thousand years regret what happened last night. And I had waited almost a thousand years.

"Never, Elizabeth"
Her eyes seemed to have glazed over, tears forming in them.

"Do not lie to me! I know how you feel. I know how many men from your time feel about sex before marriage."
Truth rang in her words. It was well known to many of us men that we only shared our beds with our wives. Every word my mother had told me throught my childhood played in my mind. Her lectures had went unnoticed last night.

But it was well worth it.

Blood fell from her eyes, staining her face asa she cried. Every part of me screamed to hold her, to take away her tears.
But if i wanted to have many more nights with my dear Elizabeth, I would stay put. As i watched her, memories of the night before flooded my head, drowning my mothers lectures.
I was the only man who had pleasured her so. The only man to see the secrets of her body. The places noone else would ever see.

"What are you asmiling about?" Her voice brought me out of my daze. I looked at her. Her black hair covered most of her face, trying to hide the fact that she did something that she had vowed no to. She cried. She showed weakness.

Screw pride.

I motioned for my sweet to come to me, and she obliged. When she was in my lap, facing me, I crashed my lips to hers.
In no time last night replayed for us.

-xXx-
I lay awake the next morning, the woman of my dreames snuggled close to me, exausted from our love making. I looked at her angelic face, and guilt rushed through me.
I had made her a monster. Sixteen forever. I ran my fingers through her hair, enjoying the scent of vanilla that came from her skin.

I reached over to the nightstand and seased a small velvet box. Opening it quietly, i made sure that the diamond ring was still safe.

Did I regret making love to the only woman in my life? No.
Did I regret keeping her with me? No.
Did I regret making her my wife and spending eternity with her? Hell no.
