/> “So, how are you going to explain to your mom that you have your boyfriend sleeping in your bedroom?” I blushed,
“Hurry back” I kissed him once more.
“Quinn” my mom’s piercing voice squeezed through the door.
“Who else would it be ma?” I laughed, secretly thinking of the possibilities, of who else it could be.
“How was your day?”
“Its was fine mom, me and Boone,” her smile became more pronounced. She loved Boone, almost as much as I did. “hung out, chilled after the movie.” I lied easily.
“That’s it?” she asked skeptically. I rolled my eyes.
“Wouldn’t tell you if there was more” I mumbled. She laughed, “Besides, it’s complicated mom, way too complicated.” I complained,
“What’s complicated? All you have to do is lay there” she smiled. It was awkward.
“Gross, we’re so not having this conversation. What kind of mom encourages her daughter to have sex at 17?” I wondered idly what she would say if she found out that she was having this conversation with a vampire slayer about her vampire boyfriend, she’d probably reconsider her “uncomplication” theory then.
“The kind who knows when her daughter is in love, and ready, besides, Your lucky it’s me, and not old dad.” I blushed, what did she tell him?
“Mom, I hope you didn’t say anything to him, gosh, how embarrassing, if you did I’ll never talk to you again” I threatened, my voice wavered form embarrassment.
“Yeah Yeah Yeah,” she laughed it off nervously “good night sweetheart. I love you”
“Goodnight mom, I love you too” I replied. She shut the door, and In the same beat, I was back in Boones arms,
“Yuck, I forgot how fast leeches were” he laughed.
“I know, hmmm?” he started to wonder “How do you do it, how can you slayers manage to keep up?” he was astonished, he never talked about my abilities to kill before.
“I don’t know, it’s kind of natural. I’m a human, of course.. But there’s this I’m not sure how to explain it. But something carries me almost, to anywhere I want to go when I’m hunting a vampire, no matter how far they are
.” I ended with a smile, I loved being a slayer.
“I wonder
..” He hesitated, it sounded like he almost didn’t want to ask me what he was thinking. almost. he looked away, and I bit my lip in anxiety.
“If something, or someone would make you choose, between me and slaying, what would you choose?” he looked away from me. ,my heart thumped at the thought of giving up either one of the most consequential things to me. But I knew the answer already.
“You,” I whispered into the dark. He kissed me, hard and eagerly. I radiated. My heart thumped, my head started to spin. Maybe he was finally going to give me what I wanted, my stomach dropped, But I new better than to be scared,. He felt the increase in my heart beat, and hitched my leg over his waist, shifting so I was on top of him. My heart thumped louder and louder, realization coming fast and hard.
“Are you sure” He whisperd, “Are you REALLY sure” He was skeptical, not sure if this was his Idea or mine.
“Yes” A heart beat and I half to late to sound really sure. And he kissed me even harder, he pulled my body closer, and we drifted deeper into the night.


chapter
The next morning was slow, as was always a Sunday. But this Sunday was different. It was my Sunday. It was the day after I’d tied myself in every way to my vampire. I was still lying in his arms when I woke up. He looked down and smiled at me, I blushed.
“Hey,” I whispered into the pillow, afraid my morning breathe would be deadly.
“Good morning love” he smiled brightly, it made me think of last night even more, I blushed deeper.
“Your little brother is coming in, I’ll be in the closet” he kissed me and ran to the closet. I don’t know why, but I was nervous suddenly. I didn’t feel different, so I couldn’t fathom why the liquid was sliding down my spine into my esophagus. It just was.
David knocked on the door, “Quinn!” he shrilled.
“Hey, punk!” I loved my little brother, he meant the world to me.
“What are you doing today?” he chimed, he was always happy.
“Nothing, Boone and I are going to hang out as usual.” I blushed, something we’d be doing today, again, wouldn’t be usual at all.
“Oh, can you drive me to soccer practice? Just so I can pick up my uniform, and then drop me off at coaches house, Its over in weeds county, in the middle of that farm. Mom and dad said you can borrow the car. We’re going to camp today?” pain jolted through me,
“your not leaving today are you?” I’d have to let him be someday, he was about to turn 9. I smiled a little at the thought, he’d grown up so much in the last few months.
“Okay, let me brush my teeth and call Boone, he’ll come with us, I’m sure he’d like to say good bye.”
“No, please. Just me and you today quinn, please!” I bit my lip. But who was I to say no to him. I’m sure Boone’s feelings were hurt, so I added
“Okay, but make sure you call him before you leave to camp, he’ll want to say goodbye!” I smiled, Boone loved David as much as I did.
“Okay okay okay okay!” his voice went hire, whining a bit. I guessed he was in a rush.
“Okay, let me brush my teeth, ill be down in five”












.................
“Ugh, im going to miss you so much David” I demanded when he got back in the car.
“Gross quinn, don’t get all mushy on me” he blushed.
“So, what was so important that you didn’t want Boone to play tag along? I thought you liked him?” I demanded driving slower, to prolong His time with me.
“I don’t know, he’s cool! I just wanted to be with you today. Im gonna miss you this Whole week” He ducked his head. He wasn’t emotional, just like me.
“Oh,” I smiled in relief “Well, then” I blushed, taken by surprise.
“Whoa!” I didn’t even know it happened, something hard smashed into my car, I didn’t know what it was but it hit me hard, and the damage was mostly done where David was sitting. DAVID, I started to panic, I looked to the left of me, and his eyes were closed.
“David,” I yelled. “Somebody. HELP!” I yelled over and over again helplessly, until something snatched Me out of the car. Relief last only a second. I should have seen this coming, what human would be out in the middle of a crop circle this early in the morning?
“Slayer,” kiarrah purred. “Sorry about the little shit in the front.” she laughed. Nodding towards David.
She had taken me by my neck, my legs struggled to break my body free.
“Let me go ! David, wake up!” I still struggled yelling towards the car. “Just get my brother!” I begged, her fist came hard to my face, I crawled towards my car. I didn’t want to look at what I thought would be the mangled pieces of my brother‘s body, I had not assessed the damage yet. something hard grabbed my foot, great, I’d been waiting for action for months, and now that it was here, I was unready, and unfocused. I broke free again, and stood in a fluid move. If I could just get her to stop for 30 seconds, I could check to see if my brother was okay.
“Just, let me get my brother” I begged once more.
“No, fight me slayer” The hard kick she’d delivered to my stomache was nothing compared to how hard the slap of her voice felt.
“Your wish, my command.” My body went under, I was no longer in control. I didn’t have time to finish her as I would have liked to. I had to hurry to save David.
Something hissed, grabbing hold of my arm. A stmoach twisting crunch sounded from my shoulder. I turned to see who’d done it, and I was out numbered.
“Five to one, aww, did master jack ass not trust one of his leeches to get the job done” I was smacked into the window of the car, David’s eyes fluttered.
“David, wake up for me-”I rushed. Another blow to my chest. I could concentrate more, knowing that my brother wasn’t completely dead, Not yet. it felt like I was being passed around for hours. I couldn’t fight anymore, my body was sore, my arms felt detached. Hope was gone,
“BOONE!” one of the leeches shouted, and retreating footsteps sounded in my ear. I looked up to see Boones figure, coming fast towards me. Who was that behind him?
“Quinn!” Boone grabbed me. David was in Montey’s arms. “Are you okay baby? I’m sorry I hadn’t come earlier, I didn’t even know, Montey came across a few vampires in the neighborhood, and came to get you, so I went with him.” he moaned
“David? Is he okay?” I demanded anxiously, not worried about his undeserved apology.
“He’s fine,” Monteys voice was restrained, he stepped closer, David was fully conscious, since when? How much had he seen? He looked Alert now.
“Quinn, tell me what’s going on,” His voice lower than usual. Hate bubbled deep into my stomach when I looked at his frightened eyes. What kind of monster would subject a 9 year old boy into the world of magic and myths, into the world of war and warfare. Into my world? I knew the answer, and he was going to pay!
“Why we’re those people beating you up Quinn?” he started to cry.
. “Ill tell you soon,” I said.
“But, Quinn!” David demanded. I grabbed his face
“Listen, it’s much better for you to not know, do you want me to go away? And never be able to come home again David? Look at me!” I demanded,
Hysterically now, “No, Quinn!” he cried,
“Then don’t say anything, to anyone. Promise me?”
He looked skeptical, “I promise”
“Montey, Take him to his coaches house, Its still a couple miles down the way. Run! As fast as you can. his bags are in the back of the seat.” I looked towards the car, which had been flipped over, while Montey got his bags.
“Be careful with him Montey, please”
“Montey, tell my parents that we got into a crash, and Boone broke his arm, and that ill be home as soon as possible.” I kissed David‘s cheek, before his and Monteys shape merged together into the evening sun, would I ever see them again? I wasn’t quite sure, after what I planned to do now.
“Where are we going?” Boone asked unknowingly.
“You’d have to ask, you should know where im going?” I raised my eye brow, fixing his statement, I had to do this on my own.
“No!” he demanded, “Your not ready!” he yelled.
“They attacked when I was with my brother! He could have been killed!”
“So now your going to go commite suicide, it’ll be better for him if you stay, they’ll be looking for him quinn, when your dead, and they will kill you. He is the next in line to become slayer.” his voice came fast, like a slap in the face.
I whirled on him, fresh tears in my face “Never say that ! Ever Boone” I yelled into his face. “Moms not a slayer, it skip’s every generation, I’m slayer so David wont
