Evan If I didn't give up on us, I wouldn't have came at night. If I didn't show up to see her, I would have never hear my brother's voice. If I didn't go up there, he would have raped her and worst... Kill her. I feel so repulsive, so angry. I don't know the story of how Miles got into her house but at least she's okay. Besides her face being swollen from his hits but they will slowly heal. My body is so weak but I'm staring to get my movement back. The soft frightened voice of Adeline's that she thought I'd be paralyzed forever made me remember that she has no memory about it at all. So she will have to explain herself about Miles while I'll do the same with the existence of vampires and that her whole life is a lie. I groan while moving my arms around, the moonlight shining through her thin curtains. I know she has passed out because of the faint noise of her heart beat. I move my head to the side because my neck stuck to her blanket that's on the ground from my blood drying on it. If only I didn't miss Miles heart, then it would have been all over. But some part inside of me hesitated for his heart and went to his stomach on purpose. I stretch my legs after getting the feeling of them back. It took longer to move than last time when he bit me and left me off to burn in the sunlight. But now I lost so much blood and my body is so weak. I feel sick. Adeline takes a deep breath in her sleep and moves around, her arm sliding off the edge and hanging right on top of me. I chuckle under my breath, remembering the way she sleeps. So messy. I love it. I lift my arm up, grazing my fingertips along hers before she flinches them and moves again. Tomorrow will be explaining day. I will tell her everything and Chandler can't stop me. She deserves the truth. Slowly I drift back to sleep. ~~~~~ "Adeline wake up to you're going to be late." My eyes snap open and my body stiffens. I try not to move even make a noise so her mother doesn't see or hear me. "Adeline." I know she's standing by the doorway just how Adeline said she would in the morning. "Yeah mom, I'm getting up." Adeline mumbles through the pillow her face is planted on. Her mom shuts the door and she turns around. Slowly I see hair fall over me and her eyes peaking over the edge. "Hi." I awkwardly say and she smiles. "Good morning." "Are you going to go to school or..?" I ask. "No, I'm going to go to the bathroom and my parents will leave so after they think I'll be heading off to school but I'm actually staying here." "Okay." "Okay." "Okay." I say back because I have nothing else to say. She climbs out of bed and pulls her sleeping shorts down because they rid up till her underwear was showing. I smirk at the scene. She leaves me alone in her room and after a couple of minutes I hear her parents leave the house with a loud shut of the front door. I try to move around on the ground and get up. The door opens and Adeline comes back in. My mouth drops when I see her face but she tries to hide it with her long blonde hair. Along her cheekbone is a dark black and blue bruise and the other side of her face is the same thing but a thin cut. Anger rolls in my body when I realize it was Miles who did this to her. "They left the house." Adeline says with a soft yet nervous smile of her face. I nod to her silently and she goes to her window. My thoughts run and before I can stop her, she pulls the curtains to the side. Sunlight shines inside her room and I try as fast as I can to get up. The light touches my bare skin, feeling my skin slowly burn to crisp. I shout at the pain, fright and shock running along Adeline's face. I slide around on the blanket below me before I can move out of the way. I run to the dark corner, making it look like my life depended on this dark area. Adeline finally realizes what was happening and pulls the curtains over the window, darkening her room again. I sigh, falling on my knees and breathing deeply. "I'm so sorry I totally forgot." She pauses, feeling the strong stench of burning flesh. She covers her nose with her hand and gags. "Oh my god." "Adeline." I let out weakly. I know what I need to make me heal but it's going to make her so scared. And scaring her isn't my intentions. She stares down at me, frozen at her spot. My skin is dark and open with pink flesh. I know my eyes grow red because I feel my fangs lengthen. Adeline takes a step back when I look up at her with my red eyes. I take a deep breath, going back to normal and her wide eyes slowly soften. "What can I do?" She asks nervously, looking around her room like she's looking for clues. "I need... I need-" I pause, trying to push aside the sweet mouthwatering scent of her blood pulsing quickly beneath her skin. "Blood. I need blood." I finally say. Adeline I stare at him with wide eyes. He's asking me something I can't give him. I already gave him somewhere to sleep and now he wants blood? Where the fuck will I get it? I need answers also but he's whining in the darkest part of my bedroom. I need to know why he's in the vaguely visions and why he looks exactly like Miles. I need more than that but at this moment I can't get them. His face is crisped and the room smells like burnt flesh. He flutters his eyes and inhales deeply like there's something that smells so good. "Please get me blood." He begs, his eyes running red like they did seconds ago. "Or I'm going to do something I'll regret." "Where? Where do I get blood?" The word is so raw in my voice when I snap at him. "I don't know just please help me." He cries and I run out of the room. I go down the stairs and into the kitchen. I open the refrigerator and I see if mom has recently cooked meat where there's blood on the plate... because dad loves it medium rare. I groan when I see none and I rush out of the kitchen and out the door. The bright sun shines down on me because it rose earlier in the morning. I look down at my block and just my luck I see a woman jogging down it. I race down the driveway, waving my arms around to get her attention. "Wait please come here!" I shout and she stops her jogging, turning around to look at me. "Is everything okay?" She asks when I reach her. She seemed at bit scared at my big scene of running to grab her. "Please my friend is hurt, please help me." "Where?" "In my room, please help me." I beg, hoping she will follow for my trick. I jog away from her and towards my house, turning to see that she's following me from behind. I shut the door when she comes inside and I guide her up the stairs. "Please hurry here." I say, going inside my room. I stop when I reach my bed and she slowly creeps in. She looks around in alarm and a frown appears on my lips. I brought a poor woman for bait. Before she can say anything Evan comes up behind her and covers her mouth. She tries to pull away but can't. Evan's eyes burned dark red and my heart races. His canine teeth grow long and sharp before he bites down on her neck. I gasp but not from him biting her but from a vision. I stumble on my bed and I see that Evan and I are in an alleyway. He's feeding on a girl and I watching, wondering if he's going to stop or not. But when he does, she's dead. I'm back in reality and the woman is gasping for air. Evan slowly goes down on his knees and brings her with him, holding her body tightly in his embrace. He groans while drinking from her and I see that his burnt blisters on his skin is slowly healing. The woman's hand that was gripping his arm slowly loosens and falls besides her with a thud on the ground. I stand up, going closer to him. "Stop!" I beg and he pulls away from her. Suddenly I'm pinned up against the wall, my head slamming against it. A wince escapes my lips and when I open my eyes I meet red ones. His lips are stained red with blood but he slowly licks them away. I'm breathing deeply and tears swell in my eyes. I'm going to die in the hands of a vampire who I know and don't know at the same time with a confused past I randomly forgot about. He brings his face closer to mine and if I leaned in, we could kiss. But he wasn't aiming for my face at all... he was going for my neck. Evan brushes his lips along my throat and at the nape of my neck. I squeeze my eyes shut when his fangs graze on my soft flesh. His hands are holding my wrists tightly but his thumb are rubbing on my skin like he's trying to sooth me. "Please stop." My raw throat croaks out and he stiffens. I feel so small against him and it's terrifying me. His fangs are gone on my skin but his lips run along it again. "I've missed you so much." He whispers between breaths and I sigh that he's actually talking and not being all vamp on me. His grip on my wrists soften and I relax besides feeling terrified. I sigh at the feeling of this lips kissing my neck. I feel like I needed it and he's been the piece I've been missing for months. Suddenly my eyes snap open and I put my hands on his chest, pushing him off of me. He tumbles back but stops before tripping on the dead body behind him. Evan seems confused at what I did but I did mean to do it. "Can you explain to me who you really are?" I blurt out and he stares at me for a couple of seconds before sighing. "Okay, let's just go somewhere to talk." "Downstairs." I shrug, staring at him awkwardly. "I'm hungry so we can go to the kitchen." He nods in agreement of where we should go talk. He turns and steps over the dead woman on my bedroom floor.Her lips are parted a bit and her eyes are half way closed and staring at her is growing knots in my stomach. "What are we going to do with her?" I ask him, sweat coating the line of my forehead in nervousness. "Don't worry, I'll clean this mess." He responds back before making his way out of my room. I stare at the body, feeling a bit guilty because it's my fault she's dead. I shake it out of my thoughts and I leave my bedroom too. ~~~~~~~
