help you” he said. He grabbed the bag out of my hands and dumped the contents on the floor. He picked up a shirt. It was slightly ripped. “I have a tank top” he said. “Take off your shirt.” I slowly lifted my shirt off of my body. He didn’t move he just stared. “Here” he said. He handed me a black tank top. I put it on. He handed me the over shirt. I put it on. He picked up a pair of distressed leggings and handed them to me. This time he turned his back away from me. I still didn’t trust him. I walked to the closet and opened the door. It was crowded but managed to fit in there somehow. I put on the leggings and skirt. Then I walked out. He turned towards me. “Hmmmm” he said. “Gorgeous” he said. “Except your hair. Let me get my sister.” He walked to the door. He opened it. “Cheyenne” he yelled. She didn’t come. “Cheyenne come here.” He yelled again.
“Im coming” a girl yelled. Cebastian moved out of the way and a tall girl with blonde hair came in. she had earphones in her ears. She pulled them out. “What do you want?” she asked. She noticed me here. “Oh who’s your friend?” she eyed me curiously. “Hi” she offered me her hand. “Im Cheyenne. What’s your name?” I took her hand. She shook it vigorously.
“Im Kara” I said. “It’s nice to meet you.” I looked towards cebastian expectantly, hoping for help.
She noticed my gaze and became all the more curious. “Are you and my brother…?” She leaned closer to me. “You know…. Dating.”
“Uh yeah” I told her. Than I smiled. She looked happy for some unknown reason.
“It’s about time ce…… “Cebastian cut her off. “Um Cheyenne we have more important things than me recently acquiring a girlfriend. Will you fix Kara’s hair the way you normally do yours.” He said. “I haven’t quite figured out how to do it.”
“Why?” she asked. “Where are you guys going?” she looked at us curiously.
“We are going to a party.” I said. “Can you please just fix my hair…..? Before this gets more awkward? I giggled.
“Yeah sure” she said. “Uh find somewhere to sit. Cebastian you really need to clean your room.” She scolded him teasingly.
Chapter 7
“See you later” Cheyenne said after she finished my hair. “Have fun.” She winked at me. The she left the room.
“Absolutely beautiful” cebastian said. He pulled me to his side. “Let’s go darling. Do you mind if we leave your car here. I want to bring my car today.”
I stared at him curiously. “Your car?” I asked him. “I didn’t know you had a car”
“You’ll see” he grinned and covered my eyes with his hands. I giggled but waited patiently as he led out the front door and to the back. When we finally reached our destination, he removed his hands and in front of me was a full blown hearse.
“Holy shit” I said. “This is so cool. Where did you get it?” I grabbed his hand. He smiled.
“I bought this at a garage sell actually. the man I bought it from had received it from the funeral home when they got a new one a year ago. He didn’t want anything to do with it.” Do you really like it?” he rubbed his hand down my spine.
“Yeah” I said. “It’s so cool. Does it have a coffin with a vampire in the back?” I said sarcastically.
“Unfortunately no” he chuckled. But if you want I can do that.” He began trailing his lips up and down my neck. I arched my back. I felt his teeth gently sink into my neck. I screamed than giggled. He removed his lips from my neck. I turned and looked at him. He had blood on his lips.
“Cebastian” I said. He frowned. “What did you do?” I placed my hand on my neck. Than pulled it back down. It was covered in blood.
“Im sorry” he said. “I didn’t mean to. We have to get Cheyenne. She can help.” He picked me up and carried me inside. “Cheyenne.” He screamed. “Help me. Oh god help her” I heard his sister come running. She saw me and saw the blood covering cebastains arms.
“What did you do cebastian?” she stared at him, shocked. “Why did you bite her?”
“It was an accident” he cried. “I didn’t mean to. We—we were just playing around by the hearse and …. And I began kissing her neck. It all happened so fast. Help her. She’s blacking out.” He looked at me frantically. A sudden pain bursted from my neck. I screamed. “The venom is taking effect.” Cebastian said. ‘Hurry”
“What did you do to me?” I yelled. “Im in so much pain” he wiped the blood off of his lips and pulled me into his arms. Even though he was the reason for my pain I couldn’t stop loving him. I wrapped my arms around him.
He looked towards me. “What are you?” I asked him. I thought about what he said before this happened. “You’re a vampire.” I said.
“Yes” he said. “Were going to have to kill the pain. I don’t know if you’ll believe it or not. Im hoping you’ll accept it. I can’t afford to lose you like I lost Claire. Im sorry I lied to you about how she died. It was my fault that she died. It was almost the exact same thing that happened to. We were out at my black Cadillac, doing the exact same thing we were doing. I was thirsty. I just wasn’t thinking. It happened to fast. Soon all of her blood was gone. She was dead. We drowned her body in the river. Then we got myself cleaned up and called the police. Im sorry Kara. I promised myself this would never happen again. Im lucky I didn’t bite you as long as her.” He rested his head against my chest. “Your heartbeat is slowing fast. You’ll change soon. Im so sorry” he kissed me gently on my cheek. Then I blacked out.
Chapter 8
My eyelids began to open slowly. “Cebastian” I said. “Where are you?” I looked around the room.
“Im right here” I heard a voice from the corner of the room. I turned my head and saw cebastian walking towards me. His head was drooping shamefully. I sat up, hoping he would sit next to me. He didn’t. He just stood there.
“Come sit by me” I said. “Please, I love you so much. I can’t stand to be without you.” He walked to the bed and sat next to me. I nestled my head against his chest. He put his arms around me.
“Im sorry” he said. “This never should have happened to you” he kissed me on the forehead. I looked up at him then pulled his head down to mine. Our lips touched. He pulled his lips back in a snarl. “Don’t do that” he said. He pushed me away from him and into the wall. I felt the tears come to my eyes. He got up and began to leave the room, but then he noticed I was crying. He turned and suddenly he was beside me. “Im sorry” he said. “Are you okay? I didn’t mean to hurt you. I love you so much. Don’t cry, darling.” He pulled me into his arms. “Do you want to see what you look like now?” he said. “Still as beautiful as ever just more pale.” He said “and your eyes are a different color, but you still always are my Kara. Do you understand that?”
“Yes” I said “don’t ever leave me.” I rested my head against his chest. The door was suddenly shoved open. Josh walked in along with Cameron and Craig. For once josh looked sympathetically at me. But he turned and glared at his brother.
“What was that noise?” josh asked. “What happened?” he looked from josh to me.
“Nothing” I said. “Everything is alright.”
