barely above a whisper.

My hopes were crashed as soon as they hiked upā€¦ I fell on to the floor. ā€œYou didnā€™t save meā€¦ You took away my only chance to be happyā€¦ You killed my entire reason of beingā€¦ā€ I sobbed.

ā€œNikkiā€¦ā€ ā€œLeave me aloneā€¦.ā€ I screamed and screamed until I felt alone in the room. ā€œEthanā€¦Why did you do this to meā€¦?ā€I cried. Images of him flashed which made me cry more in pain. I cried and cried until my heartfelt empty and there were no more tears left.

ā€œNikkiā€¦It wasnā€™t their fault. I asked them to do thisā€¦ā€ Ethan whispered into my ears holding me in his hands.
ā€œBut I donā€™t want to live without youā€¦ā€I complained.

ā€œPleaseā€¦Nikki this is not the way I wanted to see youā€¦ā€ I cut him off.
ā€œI wanted to see you all the timeā€¦ā€I whispered to him.

ā€œDo you remember my favorite line in the drama we played?ā€ he asked. I tried to remember it. ā€œEvery person is sent to the earth to do somethingā€¦ā€ I cut him off again.

ā€œI was sent to love youā€¦ā€ I said.

ā€œIf you die then how will you love me?ā€ He grinned.

ā€œI could love you even in heaven or hellā€¦ā€I said.

ā€œNikkiā€¦ Did I ever ask you anything to do?ā€ I nodded noā€¦ ā€œWell, will you do something for me?ā€ he asked. I leaned on to his shoulders. ā€œTry to be the Nikki that I always lovedā€¦ā€ he said. I stared at him.

ā€œBut there is no Nikki without youā€¦ā€ I said as tears slipped through my eyes. He gave me a kiss on the forehead and let go off me, I tangled my hands around his waist to stop him, and He eased off my hands with a gorgeous smile playing on his lipsā€¦

He walked back to the white sky. I extended my hands to catch but couldnā€™t. ā€œI will always be there with you until you donā€™t need meā€¦ā€the gentle breeze whispered into my ears.

ā€œIā€™ll always need youā€¦ā€ I cried into the white sky.

ā€œNikkiā€¦ā€ Rachelā€™s voice dragged me to my present. ā€œDrink thisā€¦ā€ she said handing me the glass that I always thought as protein drink.

I faced away from her. ā€œI donā€™t want to liveā€¦ā€I shouted at her. ā€œIf you donā€™t drink this you are going to kill more people in your madnessā€¦ā€ Eva snapped.
I stared at her as if I had seen a ghost, of course she is ghost from pastā€¦I humored. Ethan thought Nikki was mad, she was crying, smiling at a time.

ā€œIā€™m telling you the truthā€¦ if you donā€™t drink this there will be more Benā€™sā€¦ā€ She snapped. Benā€¦? Why did the name sound so familiarā€¦I heard Ethan telling her to shut upā€¦ Images of a boy wearing shorts running flashed in my mindā€¦

ā€œI killed a personā€¦?ā€ My eyes went wide as I realized what I did and slowly anger crept into me. ā€œI killed a personā€¦?ā€ I chanted.

ā€œNoā€¦Nikki. He is safe.ā€ Ethan assured.

ā€œWe healed him but took away his memory of meeting you and the incidentā€¦ā€ Eric supplied.

ā€œWhat did I do to him?ā€ I cried. ā€œHe is really safeā€¦ā€Eric assured. ā€œOh! Shut up Nikki. Itā€™s not very vampiric to cryā€¦ā€Eva gritted her teeth. ā€œSisterā€¦one more word from your mouth, Iā€™ll strangle youā€¦ā€Ethan shrieked.

ā€œKidsā€¦ā€ Carl gestured all of them to go out. ā€œI know this is hard on youā€¦ā€ Jane started. ā€œYou canā€™t even imagineā€¦ā€ I said wiping away tears. She nodded her head. ā€œYou might be surprised to know that I do know what you are going throughā€¦ā€ I frowned.

ā€œI lived long agoā€¦ I had a beautiful family and a caring husband. He loved me so much and me him. We had adorable kids and we had wealth. I had everything that a woman would want to. One day we were returning from a business trip. Thugs looted us on the way; they killed my husband and my children in front of my very own eyesā€¦.ā€ She waited for a long time probably remembering those daysā€¦

ā€œCarl found me andā€¦ā€ She broke off. I could swear that I saw two tear drops around her cheeks. ā€œI found it so hard to liveā€¦I blamed Carl for letting me live when my family died but he was so patient towards me. The important thing is I began to love himā€¦ and I still have the fond memories of my Ex- husbandā€¦ā€ she said.

ā€œIā€™m sorryā€¦ but I donā€™t think I could ever come to love someone elseā€¦ā€ I mumbled.

ā€œIā€™m not asking you to forget him because I didnā€™tā€¦He is still a major part of meā€¦ā€ ā€œYou just need to find your happiness somewhere else thatā€™s what Ethan would like you to doā€¦ā€she said. I nodded.


ā€œArenā€™t you coming to school today?ā€ Rach asked. Nikki ignored her, she didnā€™t feel like going anywhere or doing anything, she wanted to lie down and find a way to reach Ethan. If she could find a way to be put to sleep and never wake upā€¦she thought.

ā€œNo interestā€¦ā€ She mumbled weakly. Rach stayed a while looking at Nikki and decided that she better be left alone. Weeks passed this wayā€¦ Nikki was always lost in Ethanā€™s thoughts, she was always in her bed and when awake she would try to sleep. Her thoughts were always filled with Ethan.


ā€œNikkiā€¦Get up nowā€¦.ā€Janeā€™s voice had intensity to it that made Nikki shiver. She promptly stood from her bed.

ā€œYou are going to school todayā€¦ā€She said and shoved a new pair of clothes into her hands. Nikki stood bewildered. ā€œAre you going to do it yourself or should I help?ā€She asked in a serious tone. Nikki knew she would just do that if she hadnā€™t listened to her.

She did as she was asked to do and went to school. She ignored all the stares and friendly gestures from people. She went through the whole day mechanically, all her thoughts elsewhere.

Nikki couldnā€™t stand it anymore she ran into the forest behind her school; she ran and ran until exhausted. She fell on the ground curling into a ball and she cried out loud, she let herself cry out and fell asleep finding once again below the white sky. She struggled to stand up as soon as she recognized where she was, she glanced every side to see if her Ethan was there. He was nowhere to be seen, she ran in every direction until she was blocked by white walls.

Ethanā€™s voice echoed from the white skiesā€¦She searched for him frantically. Her despair grew even more by the passing of time.

ā€œEthanā€¦Whereā€™s Nikkiā€¦?ā€Jane asked as soon as she saw them coming alone. ā€œWasnā€™t she back home?ā€ Rach asked easing herself on the couch.

ā€œShe went with you to schoolā€¦ā€Jane reminded her. ā€œShe ran off from school during the last hourā€¦ā€Ethan called and hurried to check her room. It was empty; his anxiety grew more as he searched every nook and cranny at house.

ā€œRachelā€¦Are you sure she left school?ā€ Ethan called still searching the entire place. ā€œPositiveā€¦ā€Rachel replied.

ā€œShe is goneā€¦ā€Ethanā€™s face registered shock. Everyone in the Reedā€™s house gathered in the hall as they heard the raised voices.

ā€œFelixā€¦Can you trace her outā€¦?ā€ Jane asked. Felix nodded and pressed his hands to his temples. He concentrated on Nikkiā€™s scentā€¦It was faint but still he could trace using the lingering trail she left behind in the forest.

He ran in the direction as the scent called him, Ethan ran after him followed by Eric. They used their vampire speed to reach the place where Nikki was. Nikki was crying in her sleep curled up in a ball. Ethan felt a sort of calmness spread over himā€¦ He picked her up gently from the ground where she was lying. She was still crying for Ethan in her dreams.

ā€œItā€™s okayā€¦ā€Ethan whispered to her as she whimpered. She snuggled close in his arms and enveloped her hands around his neck; her touch shook his entire frame. She laid her hand on his chest listening to his faint beat of heart. Her vanilla scent filled his nostrils, Ethan groaned as an unknown feeling crept through him. He peeped down at her, she was still disturbed in her sleep and her heart shaped face had the signs of sleeplessness and worry. Her tangled hair fell over her face. She leaned close to his neck and kissed him gently whispering something incoherently. That gentle touch of her lips electrified his whole body and jerked his entire being.

Ethan brought her home and walked her up stairs. His brothers never missed a minute detail of what happened back in the forest, they decided to tease their little brother about his new found love. ā€œEthanā€¦Give her to me. Iā€™ll take her to her roomā€¦ā€Eric said extending his hands towards sleeping Nikki.

Ethan growled at him and threw vicious glares at his extended hands which surprised the entire family very much. Ethan took her to her room and gently placed her on her bed. She curled up still catching his hands to her heart dearly.

Ethan shifted himself on the bed to be close to her, he moved her hair away from her face. He leaned forward to kiss her on the blushed cheeks of hers when he heard her whispering, ā€œPlease donā€™t goā€¦ā€

Everything came back to him as if he was slapped away from the stupor; he pulled his hand away from her gently and ran away from her room cursing him for even thinking about her like that.

ā€œEthanā€¦ā€ Janeā€™s voice was soothing his tensed nerves. ā€œMomā€¦Iā€™m horrible. She is Ethanā€™s girlfriend and Iā€™mā€¦ā€ He lost words as the full extent of what he did dawned on his mind.
Jane sat him on the couch and let him talkā€¦ ā€œEthanā€¦Itā€™s not wrong to love someoneā€¦ā€

ā€œMomā€¦She is Ethanā€™s girlfriendā€¦ā€ Jane cut him off.
ā€œYesā€¦She was Ethanā€™s girlfriendā€¦ā€She emphasized ā€˜wasā€™.
ā€œButā€¦ā€
ā€œDonā€™t you think she needed another chance in her lifeā€¦?ā€ She asked eying him.

ā€œI think you should give her that chanceā€¦ā€
ā€œBesidesā€¦Once a vampire finds his mate there is no way you can turn backā€¦ā€Felix said grinning.
ā€œI didnā€™t choose herā€¦ā€Ethan replied meekly.

ā€œWe have seen thatā€¦ā€Eric grinned.
ā€œYou are in loveā€¦brother. There is no denying itā€¦ā€ Felix said.
ā€œOf all the people, why should it be her?ā€ Ethan thought out loud. ā€œLove doesnā€™t happen when you want it to or with whom you wanted toā€¦ā€ ā€œIt just happens...ā€ Carl finished for Eric.


Ethan was having hard time in being away from Nikki, he was always so near to her yet far away from her. She did everything mechanically always lost in the world of Ethan. Nikki was never aware of that nightā€™s incidents but for Ethan that night changed his life forever.

ā€œWe should do something about themā€¦ā€ Rachel said as she eyed Ethan stealing glances at Nikki who stared into the space.

ā€œI have an ideaā€¦ā€ Rachel clicked her fingers and in one quick stride she was in the living room where the rest of the family was sitting.

ā€œMomā€¦I think we should go somewhere nice this weekend maybe it will help to lift her mood upā€¦ā€ Rachel said excited.

ā€œI think we are also in dire need of huntingā€¦ā€ Felix said. Everyone nodded. ā€œThis weekend camping on the mountainsā€¦ā€ Carl said winking at his children.

ā€œPrepare for the campā€¦ā€Carl said. Everyone
