for killerweasel who wanted Darla/Lindsey

Acceptance

She wanted him.  And she felt so damn guilty for it.  It was an emotion she was completely unaccustomed to.  She never felt it as a vampire--all she ever felt as a vampire was craving and power.  Never felt it as a whore--as a whore she neither wanted them, or felt guilty for any of it. 

 

And he wanted her back.  He wanted her so much she was afraid of him.  Afraid of the possibilities.  She couldn’t live this life again.  Not even when he promised to make it so palatable. So much better this time around.  But it was the pain.  She remembered the pain from the first time.  She couldn’t do that again.  And she knew men.  That was the one lesson she had learned well in life.  Men couldn’t be trusted.  Men would sweetly lie and then turn the knife in your gut. 

 

She couldn’t do it.  Not again.  So she turned away from him, and it killed her to do so.

I'm glad you liked it. Somehow, I always thought "poor Darla" after she came back human. Well, not always...but at first.
