And then little by little her heartbeat slowed

Evan raised a brow at his brother before turning back to his girlfriend, a little relieved that she seemed to be calming down but still keeping watch over her.

Lysander rolled his eyes at Evan’s not so subtle implication. Especially since they both knew that he was completely powerless. Useless… he added silently as he carefully took Betty's hand.

Betty jolted up looking around

Both brothers jumped a little when Betty sat up so suddenly… but Evan breathed a sigh of relief at her being awake again.

”Are you alright, my angel?” Lysander asked, still worried about her.

" Henry" she mumbled

”Henry? I think he's downstairs.” Lysander said gently.

”I’ll check. Do you want me to bring him up?” Evan asked.

She nodded " I need my knee wrapped"

Evan raised a brow slightly. ”Lysander can wrap your knee while I get Henry.” he suggested, noticing the gauze wrapped around his hands and fingers.

Lysander shrugged a little at the idea. ”Only if you don't mind, Betty.”

" he's in pain and he might touch me" she said

”I… I won't touch you.” Lysander assured her, lifting his mummified hands to show her that his skin was covered. ”But she's right. It might be better to have someone who doesn't have bruised ribs and can actually sit up help her.”

Evan nodded and stood up. ”Then I'll be right back.”

She nodded

Evan gave a small smile and left the room to get Henry, leaving the couple alone again.

Betty closed her eyes letting tears fall down her cheeks

Lysander looked over at her and was strongly tempted to hold her hand. ”Evan told me about the vision you showed him.” he said softly.

She nodded

“Was I in it?” he whispered. ”I mean, was I the reason for the fire?” he asked, referring to his vampiric ability.

She nodded

He sighed, understanding her fear and a little disappointed in his future self. ”I’m sorry. I don't know why I would do that. The last thing I want is to start another war between vampires and werewolves.” he said honestly and remorseful.

" it happens" she said

He shook his head. ”But I've never done something that stupid before. Cause a war between my brother and the woman I love… that's not me.” he said.

" you keep strating that one" she said

”Starting… which one? The one in your vision?” he asked confused.

She sighed, tears rolling down her cheeks " I try so hard to be there for you to make you happy to be enough to be the girl you want me to be but no matter what I do it's never right it's never enough " she said

He looked at her in shock at her words. ”No. Betty, love, you are enough. You are completely perfect for me when you don't try and just be who you are. These years of being married to you, have been the happiest years I’ve ever had.” he told her sincerely, gently placing his gauze covered hand on top of hers.

She looked at him sniffling " it's just Everytime a girl comes around it seems like you'd rather be with her than me"
