Isn't Clarissa's Family the BEST?

She smiled suddenly.

"What if I do really well? Can I have sex, too?"

He glared.

"That is for after marriage, young miss--no exceptions."

"I'll be eighteen in a few months. Are we getting married then? Please say yes." She seemed happier than before already, just at the thought.

"...After you graduate high school," he said evasively.

She pouted.

"If we don't get married before my schooling is over, then I want sex before my schooling is over." She told him.

He sighed.

"Do my feelings and values mean that little to you?"

"I would be more lenient if you weren't forcing me to finish school." Clarissa replied, still hung up on that.

He sighed.

"...What if I agree to shirtless cuddling?"

She smiled slightly.

"That would be nice." She admitted, blushing slightly.

"Then will you keep your virginity until marriage?" he asked teasingly, kissing her on the hand.

She nodded.

"Yes. I still don't like waiting, though." She admitted.

He kissed her on the forehead.

"I know. But some things are worth waiting for. Now, how is this 'cuddling' going to work, exactly?..."

"Take off your shirt and I'll show you." She said innocently.

Sighing, he did as she asked.

"Now what?"

She tackled him, cuddling up to his chest and pressing her head to it.

"Your skin feels so strange...You're not very warm. When did you feed last?"

He shrugged.

"A week or two ago. Why?"

"Wow. You can go a long time without feeding. You should feed again, so I can feel the difference." She insisted, though she didn't let him go.

He nodded.

"Yes, yes...I'll order some blood later."

She kissed him on the lips.

"Thank you, Alois." She said sweetly.

He blushed and wrapped his arms around her.

"...I only do all these things because I love you, you know."

She smiled wider.

"I know. I love you, too."
