Cold As YouYou have a way of
coming easily to me
And when you take,
you take the very best of me   So I start a fight cause
I need to feel something
And you do what you want
cause I'm not what you wantedCold As You Angel clung to Brandon as they kissed in their driveway. She was going away for a week with her mother, Kiara, and her aunt to celebrate her birthday. Brandon was going to stay home with Jason. "I'm going to miss you," Angel breathed after they pulled apart. "I'll miss you, too, baby. Call me when you get there," Brandon told her. "I love you," Angel cooed as she leaned up to kiss him one more time. "I love you, too, darling. Have a safe trip!" he replied, kissing her before helping her into the backseat of the Jeep, which the girls were taking for the trip. Alice handed Jason to Brandon before hugging and kissing them both. She climbed into the back with her daughter and granddaughter. Brandon and Jason waved until the car was out of sight. Now to go over and see Jacks...
Brandon put Jason in his carseat before climbing into the driver's seat. Jacks' house was only a few miles from their house, so it didn't take long until they were pulling into the driveway of Jackson's house. He got Jason out of the back of the car before heading to the front door. Brandon rang the doorbell and then waited. He was pleased when it was Jacks who opened the door. "Oh, hi, Brandon. Come in," Jacks said, looking surprised to see his brother-in-law and his nephew. He stepped back to let them enter. As Jacks shut the front door, Anna came out of the kitchen carrying Stella. She smiled in greeting, "I was going to take Stella outside to play. Would Jason want to come with us?" Jason held out his arms to his aunt and she took him from his father. After they were gone, Jackson led Brandon upstairs to his study where they could talk in private.
"So what's up?" Jacks asked him once they were alone. "I know that this may be too much to ask of you, but I want to be changed as a surprise for Angel when she gets back," Brandon told him. "Well, I can understand why you want to, and I know Angel will be thrilled for you to be a vampire. I would have to call my grandfather really quick, though. I don't even know where to begin, I will be right back," Jackson replied before leaving the room. He came back a few minutes later. "Let's go into the guest room, so you'll be more comfortable," he stated and led Brandon out of the room. Brandon sat on the bed, waiting for what would happen next. "Grandpa said to give you morphine before I bit you so you would be knocked out for the entire change," he explained, pulling a syringe out of his pocket. He gave the morphine to Brandon carefully. "So are you ready?" he asked him, giving him a weak smile. "Let's do this," Brandon said nodding with a grim smile. |

I NEED YOU I wanna get lost in a corner booth, Cantina Mexico I wanna dance to the static of an AM radio I wanna wrap the moon around us, lay beside you skin on skin Make love til the sun comes up, til the sun goes down again Cause I need you    Like a needle needs a vein Like my uncle Joe in Oklahoma needs the rain I need you Like a lighthouse on a coast Like the Father and the Son need the Holy Ghost I need you, OOH I need you I NEED YOU
Brandon followed Jacks into the guest room, he was a little bit scared but he wanted this…he wanted Angel forever. Jacks gave him the shot of morphine and he was out in seconds. It was dark but he was ok…he could picture Angel, Kia, and Jason. It wasn’t that bad, felt like he was just sleeping. There was a pinch on his wrists and neck but nothing too bad. He was ok for awhile but then it started to get hot…really hot. He felt like he was in Texas with the sun beating down on him. It got hotter yet though, like he was on the surface of the sun…but it was manageable…he just kept picturing Angel in his head. Faintly he could hear voices, Jacks what did you do?! He asked for it…Angel is going to kill me. Brandon smirked at that, Angel wouldn’t kill him. I’ll keep Jason out…how long? A few days. Brandon really didn’t think about that…he was supposed to be watching his son not Anna and Jacks.
Day after day he waited to wake up. Nothing happened, he couldn’t move. After 6 days he started to hear the worry in Jacks voice, He should have woken up by now…I think I need to call Grandpa. Angel is going to kill you if you hurt him… I know! Please wake up… Well how did they wake up your aunt? I don’t know…My uncle was with her…damn if Angel has to wake him up I’m dead. I think you need to call your sister… He heard Jacks sigh and then the click of buttons. Angel…you need to come home, now. What happened? Brandon hasn’t woken up yet… What did you do?! Well he asked me to change him… AND YOU DID?! He needs you…he won’t wake up for anyone else… Brandon could hear her crying…as if a bell went off in his head his eyes snapped open. Jacks was in awe but Brandon held a finger to his lips. He didn’t want Angel to know he was awake. Come home…. If anything happens to him I’m going to kill you… Jacks hung up the phone and smiled, You look pretty good as a vampire…welcome to the family, again. He slapped Brandon’s hand, Is she on her way? His voice sounded pretty normal...but somewhat different. Jacks nodded, She’ll be here in a few hours…in the mean time you need to go hunting… Brandon nodded and set off with his brother-in-law.
After a few animals later he was feeling sloshy. Angel’s close… How did you know that? He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, I’m not really sure, I can just sense she’s close. They took off running back to the house but didn’t go in. Brandon heard a car door slam and Anna was out the front door. If you let him kill my husband… Angel calm down… NO! He’s everything… He heard her break down, it was too much to bear. He stepped out from the side of the house, I’m ok baby. Her jaw dropped as she spotted him.

COLD AS YOUOh what a shame,
what a rainy ending given
to a perfect day
Just walk away, no use defending wordsthat you will never say
And now that I'm sitting
here thinking it through
I've never been anywhere cold as youCOLD AS YOU Brandon heard a car door slam and Anna was out the front door. "If you let him kill my husband…" "Angel, calm down…" "NO! He’s everything…" He heard her break down, it was too much to bear. He stepped out from the side of the house, "I’m okay, baby." Her jaw dropped as she spotted him. She ran into his arms sobbing.
She buried her face in his chest. Brandon scooped her up and held her close. He buried her face in her hair. "Why?" she whispered, her voice muffled. "I wanted to surprise you for your birthday, baby. You're always talking about how you want me to be a vampire...so now I am," he replied. "That was stupid of you, you could have died....Oh, Brandon, I'm so glad you're okay!" he whispered. "Angel, I'm so sorry..." Jacks said before his twin interrupted him. "Oh, shut up, Jackson! What were you thinking?! You could have killed him...why didn't you asked Dad or Grandpa or Uncle Em or Uncle Ed?" Angel snarled at her brother.
"Angel, shhh. Calm down, I'm alright, babe," Brandon tried to soothe her. "This isn't over," Angel hissed at Jackson. "Hey, hon, come hunting with me?" he asked her. "Okay," Angel said, sighing in defeat. He set her down on the ground and she slipped her hand into his. Brandon leaned down and kissed the top of her head. He was so glad she was back with him and that she wasn't too mad at him. She leaned against him, needing his support. He let go of her hand and wrapped his arm around her protectively. Brandon led her into the forest so they could talk and he could go hunting again. |

Brandon led her into the forest so they could talk and hunt. As soon as they were in cover of the trees he turned and swept her off her feet. I missed you so much, he whispered as he kissed along her jaw. Her hands wound in his hair as she pulled his lips to hers, I missed you too. Immediately he forgot about hunting, all he could think about was Angel. The way his arms felt around her, how soft her skin was, the way her eyes sparkled in the sunlight. He knew just how tight to hold her without hurting her, just how much of himself he could give to her without hurting her. His every thought was of her and only her. I love you Angel, so much. I love you too. Gently he kissed her and held her close to him. Hunting? He sighed, now the burn in his throat was noticeable. She jumped out of his arms and raced away, she was easy to follow though. He could see her slipping past branches, so gracefully. Once again he forgot what he was supposed to be doing, all he could think about was his wife.
She stopped suddenly and he flipped over her to avoid slamming into her. Surprisingly he landed on his feet; she was giggling behind him, Am I amusing? He asked as he spun back around to her and wrapped his arms around her. She traced his arm with her fingertip, Very amusing. These muscles are amazing. He lifted her off the ground and kissed her, I think hunting can wait a little bit… No it can’t. She teased and wiggled out of his arms. Angel took off running again, he sighed but followed her. She pounced on a deer and he watched. It was just like he had done with Jacks. He followed in suit a few yards away with his own deer. After a few more for both of them he looked down at his shirt, it had blood on it. He pulled it off over his head and threw it on the ground. He could sense Angel just as she jumped onto his back, he hit the ground with her on top of him, she traced the muscles on his chest. I like you without the shirt. His arms wrapped around her gently holding her against him but so she couldn’t get away…again. She leaned down and kissed him, I love you.

COLD AS YOUYou put up walls and paint
them all a shade of gray
And I stood there loving you
and wished them all awayAnd you come away with
a great little story
Of a mess of a dreamer with
the nerve to adore youCOLD AS YOU He could sense Angel just as she jumped onto his back, he hit the ground with her on top of him, she traced the muscles on his chest. "I like you without the shirt." His arms wrapped around her gently holding her against him, but so she couldn’t get away…again. She leaned down and kissed him, "I love you." "I love you more," she teased. He chuckled, "I don't think so, babe." Angel giggled and he smiled up at her. "I like you without your shirt," he told her. She giggled again and let him pull her shirt over her head. Brandon's hand went to work on unclasping her bra, but he accidentally ripped it. "You don't even know your own strength, baby," she teased.
"Yeah, I can see that. Sorry, hon," Brandon apologized. "It's okay, it was quite amusing really," she said, beginning to work on his belt. He pulled her skirt off, accidentally ripping it down the back. "Oops," he chuckled. Angel giggled and shook her head. She finally got his belt undone and unzipped his pants. Brandon lifted his hips and pulled off his pants. Angel rested her head on his chest. He ran his hand up and down her back gently. "Only if you want to," he told her. "I do, I missed you so much..." she whispered. Brandon tried to pull off her underwear carefully but ripped it into two separate pieces. "You'll get better soon," Angel reassured him.
She pulled his boxers off quickly and slid down onto him hurriedly. Angel didn't even care that her husband was a vampire. It was twilight by the time they stopped. She yawned and rolled off him. "Babe, lay on my pants. I don't want you laying on the ground," Brandon whispered to her. She nodded in reply and laid down on his pants as he set them on the ground next to him. Angel curled up and fell asleep. It was dark by the time she woke up again. Brandon got dressed as much as he could as she sat up. Angel pulled on her shirt since that was the only salvageable piece of her clothing available. "Babe, put on my pants. I'm fine in my boxers" Brandon told her.
She nodded and pulled on his pants even though she was basically drowning in them. "I'll carry you back to the house, baby," he said. Angel clambered onto his back carefully. Then Brandon ran back to the house. Jacks and Anna were sitting on the couch when he walked into the house with Angel. "The kids are all sleeping," Anna told them. "Can Kia and Jason stay here for a few days? I don't know how they will react to my change. I'm taking Angel home now," Brandon replied. "Yeah, we can watch them. Go home and relax. Call us in the morning if you're up to it," Jacks said. Then one of the kdis started crying upstairs. "It's Kia," Brandon said. "How do you know?" Angel asked. "She's my daughter, I know," he said before leaving the house and running back to their house. |

Brandon took Angel home finally. It was nice to be back for awhile with just the two of them. He carried her to their room and set her down on the bed. One of her nightgowns was on the dresser so he grabbed it and tosssed it to her. She slipped it on and took off the stuff she already had on. He went and changed into sweat pants and a tank top. Now he realized something, Angel would sleep...he wouldn't. Either way he laid down and pulled her into his arms, Night baby. He ran his fingers up and down her back gently until she fell asleep. Brandon put one of hus arms under his head and thought about everything. He was strong, never needed to sleep, didn't eat regular food, and he could tell who was around him. He got up and went to take a shower, he didn't have anything else to do.
Brandon took off his clothes and stepped into the hot water. It felt scorching to his new cold temperature. Angel didn't seem to mind but then again both her parents were vampires. He looked over his arms, there was definately new muscles there. He was a lot more toned than before even with the Army and all. His biceps, triceps, abs, and everything was super tight. He washed up just like he always did, and then just let the water run over him. The door opened and Angel stepped in, even with his eyes closed he could tell it was her. Hey baby, shouldn't you be asleep? I couldn't sleep, you weren't there. Sorry I got bored and figured I should take a shower. Mind if I join you? Be my guest. He moved over and let her in with him, she leaned against him and his arms wrapped around her waist. I'm gonna need a hobby.

"I couldn't sleep, you weren't there." "Sorry, I got bored and figured I should take a shower." "Mind if I join you?" "Be my guest." He moved over and let her in with him. She leaned against him and his arms wrapped around her waist, "I'm gonna need a hobby." "I can't be your hobby?" she said, half teasing. "I don't think so, baby. You're still part-human and you're pregnant," he replied. "Well, you could always go spend time with my family. They're all vampires, so they should be up," she suggested.
"I don't know if I can stand them that much," he said. Then they heard the phone ring, so they both got out. Angel ran and grabbed the phone. "Hello?" she answered. "Angel, it's Jacks. Jason is really sick, we're thinking about taking him to the hospital," Jacks replied. "What's wrong with him?" Angel asked, frowning.
"He has a fever, he's throwing up, he's shaking pretty bad," he explained him. "We'll come pick him up now," Angel stated. "Are you sure?" Jacks questioned. "Yes, see you in about 10 minutes," she said and hung up. "What's wrong?" Brandon asked. "Jason's sick. We have to go take him to the hospital," she replied. "I'll go get him. You just stay here and relax," he told him. "No, he doesn't know about you yet. You might scare him. Look, let's just go drive over now," she answered. "Nah, I'll run and meet you there," Brandon said pulling on some clothes quickly and running out of the room. Angel got dressed and went down to the car. She drove over to her brother's house. Brandon was waiting for her on the front porch when she got there. They walked inside together. |

Brandon ran over to Jacks house to get his son. They didn’t know how the kids would react to his change. Plus Jason was half human, but he wouldn’t hurt his son. Babe, if I start to do anything I want you to shove me, as hard as you can. Don’t let anything happen to them, I couldn’t hurt you ever so I need to you get me away if anything starts. She nodded and kissed him, You won’t hurt them. He nodded and wrapped his arms around her as Kia stepped out the door, Daddy! He bent down and she ran into his arms. Hi boo. Her little arms wrapped around his neck and she kissed his cheek, I missed you. I missed you too, I love you. He lifted her off the ground and turned to Angel, One down, one to go. She smiled as Kia’s head rested on his shoulder, she felt like a feather to him. When the baby came he’d take care of them at night so she didn’t have to.
They went upstairs where Jason was and looked down at him. He looked really sick, Baby we’re here. Jason looked at Brandon funny for a minute and then held his arms up to him. Brandon scooped up his son with ease and cradled him with his other arm, We’re gonna get you better bud. We’re here. Kia squirmed around, Mommy! He handed her over to Angel and held Jason against his chest to try and bring down his fever some. I think he might need to see a doctor honey. She nodded as Jason whimpered.
