a hug

'Luke! Be careful she's only just woken up, you'll hurt her'

I could just make out that Tara said that, only just and it was just a guess

the person that gave me a hug, now found out to be Luke stepped back

'sorry Ruth'

I made a faint smile 'it's okay'

they all smiled at me

'were so... sorry Ruth, we should have listened to you!'

I half smiled at this

'yeah, Tara's right! We shouldn't have made you go to school today. We should have known that they would all ask about Lilly'

I smiled this time, and not because of what they were saying, because I could now fully see everyone.

'yeah, we should have known that it would all be too stressful for you'

I smiled at everyone 'it's okay guys, really'

they all ran and gave me a hug

'so how are you feeling now?'

I looked at Carter and smiled 'I'm okay now, my head just really hurts, that's all'

Katy frowned and it didn't just shock me, it shocked everyone else too

'what's with the frown'

Luke's question was quite a good question

Katy sighed

'normally I would say that it was stress and I wish it was, but it wasn't was it?'

I sighed, wow she was good, really good. 'no'

the others frowned

'What was your dream about this time?'

I looked at Katy and sighed. 'I can't quite remember,' I paused, suddenly my head started hurting and it didn't go unnoticed 'I...'

they all sighed

'Ruth you don't have to tell us if you don't want to'

I half smiled at Tara. 'no it's okay. Telling you makes my head hurt but I have to tell you'

they sighed

'you don't have to do anything if you don't want to'

I smiled and Ben

'no it's not that, I got told that I have to tell you,' I paused again and held my head. It really hurt 'what I have to tell you will save your lives, of only I could remember'

they all gave a sympathetic smile

'don't rush this Ruth, sit down and breath, try to remember what you were told'

I sighed and sat down, the others joined. I closed my eyes and took deep breaths in and out. Suddenly it all came back to me, some of it did at least and it really hurt my head. 'you guys couldn't remember me...'

Tara sighed

'go on...'

I took a deep breath 'you locked me in a room,' I paused 'before that I was told that I was being tested....'

'go on....'

I looked at Tara and sighed 'a girl around my age told me that I had to remember....'

they all looked at me with serious faces

'remember what?'

'Luke relax, let her think'

I gave Lindsey a thank you smile 'she said that what just happened would come true except it would be a lot worse, she said that I had to be careful. She told me that I couldn't loose my memory, she said that if I wasn't careful I would forget you like you forgot me and it would put danger in us all. She said that I wouldn't exist,' I paused and nearly cried because my head hurt so much 'I will be wiped from existence, except I won't'

'what do you mean by that?'

I looked at Jackie and sighed

'I'll have a new life and I would have never met you or my mum or anyone. You will exist but not for long, the past will eventually eat you up. No me, no you'

they were shocked

'but how is that even possible?,' Tara wriggled in her seat in stress 'we had lives before we met you, so how is that possible. I mean not to be mean but this is just so....'

this made me a bit mad but I kept inside and forced a fake smile 'I guess it's because you would have never known about vampires if you hadn't met me' I tried staying positive but I don't think that it worked

'I know what Ruth means, now we've met vampires our lives have changed so.... much and we can never go back'

I smiled at Ben to say thanks

'yeah I mean if it weren’t for Sharlene, Sam, Luke and of course Ruth we would be just like a normal boring teenager our age, I like having all the action'

I smiled at Jackie, I wasn't a vampire but vampires follow me so I knew what she meant.

Tara sighed

'I'm sorry Ruth I didn't mean that, I love having you as my friend and I'm glad that you came with all the action and danger.'

I smiled at Tara, I appreciated her apology, after all if I was in her shoes I would be struggling to deal with it too.

'so basically we don't want this happening, what can we do to stop it?'

I looked at Sam and sighed 'I don't know but I have to protect my memory at all costs!'
Chapter twenty-nine part one Lilly's back

Feelings, Feelings are always hard to explain. Whether its feelings in a relationship or crush, or simply just feelings for friends and best friends. Feelings for all of them is always hard to explain. I am here to take up the challenge of explaining my feelings, and trust me it won't be easy. My feeling is for my best friend, as you probably know already my best friends name is Lilly. Close your eyes and picture this, picture your friend or someone who you have strong feelings for get shot. Imagined that? Great. Now imagine the person who you have strong feelings for fighting for their life, image having the feeling that he or she may never wake up again. Imagine crying for hours and hours on end about the person who you have strong feelings for, thinking that you'll never get to talk to him or her again. Okay now imagine that you've spent, what seems like days worrying and crying over him or her and then going to work or at school or wherever you normally see him or her and you see the person who you have strong feelings for. What do you feel? Many of you will say that your happy, I'm not.

'hey Ruth are you ready?'

I jumped and turned to see Lindsey. I sighed 'I guess so'

Lindsey looked at me and frowned

'it'll all be okay, trust me'

I sighed. I believed Lindsey but I was still upset about Lilly and I was still in shock about my dream. 'how can you be so sure?'

she sighed

'we won't let anything happen to you Ruth, your too special to us,' she glanced at my smile 'and Lilly is in hospital and so it won't happen'

my smile faded at that

'I didn't mean it like that, she cares about you to much and so she won't let anything happen to you. Trust me'

I smiled at that. I still doubted her telling me to trust her but I was happy that she was trying. After that she led me to the others and we walked to school, this is where it all happened. I stood dad in my tracks in shock and so did the others. Right in front of my eyes stood Lilly, my best friend Lilly. She was happily talking to everyone, she then glanced at us and her smile grew. 'Lilly...I...we....–'

'we thought that you were in hospital still'

her smile grew

'I got better and so the doctors let me out. They let me out yesterday but I wanted to surprise you today by coming in'

I was shocked, I was really shocked. I was so shocked that I was speechless

'wow....Lilly. That's amazing,' Ben elbowed me and I couldn't hep but go 'ow' 'isn't it Ruth'

I was still annoyed at Ben elbowing me and I was still shocked. 'yeah. It's so great!' I really was happy but I was shocked as well and it was kinda taking over me. That half of the day got stranger and stranger, however it wasn't the normal thing that made it strange. It was Lilly. She was acting so weird, she knew when the lesson was going t end before it actually ended and I kept loosing her for some reason and then she kept appearing again. I blamed that part on my eyes but still it was weird. I couldn't concentrate in the lesson before lunch, the lesson was history, I was to determined to find out what was going on with Lilly.

'Ruth wake up, it's simple'

I jumped trying to figure out where the voice came from when I finally figured that the voice was Lisa. I immediately put my hand up, I had to get out.

'yes miss booker?'

'can I go to the loo'

she sighed

'go on then but don't be to long'

I smiled, I always like my history teacher. With that I ran to the toilets, when I got there I locked myself in a toilet block again. 'what do you mean?'

I could hear her sigh

'your stressing over Lilly but it's so simple'

okay now I was confused 'what are are you on about'

she sighed

'add it all up Ruth, she's a vampire'

okay now I was even more confused. She may be acting weird but she's not a vampire.

She sighed again

'Ruth do you remember when you didn't know about Luke, back in the disco?'

I gave it some thought and then it all came back to me, the moment when he threw me in the air and caught me and when he was a super fast swimmer. 'yeah...when he threw me in the air and caught me and when we were in the pool, when he swam really fast.'

'add it up Ruth, Luke is strong and fast and Lilly is...'

I couldn't believe what she was saying, I half believed her though, Ruth focus!

She sighed again

'okay then....do you remember how fast your kidnappers were?'

I gave it some thought and then the memories flew back. I was running from them and they ran like as fast as the speed of a car, or...faster. 'yeah,' then suddenly it hit me. Lisa was right! Lilly was pretty fast and quite strong. 'oh my goodness! Your right!'

'yep, told you'

a sudden flare of anger flew through me and I couldn't hold it in. 'right that's it!' before I could give Lisa a chance to respond I
