Hey! So this is my first fanfic ever! I hope you like it!
"NO!" She sobbed. "I have a husband! And kids!" The vampire didn't flinch. He just continued to trace his fangs over her unscathed neck. "Please," she whispered, but she had given up hope and knew the words wouldn't distract him from what he wanted. And what he wanted would undoubtedly result in her death.
I sighed. Shane smirked at me. "Don't get upset Claire! It's only a movie! In fact, you should enjoy it even more because it's a vampire movie and Amelie didn't confiscate it!"
I looked at him, shocked. "How can you be enjoying this?"
He seemed confused. "How can you not?"
"I don't know Shane, I guess it takes the fun out of it when you know the exact same thing could happen to you if you so much as go outside after sunset!" I rolled my eyes and stood up, ready to go upstairs, but he grabbed my wrist before I could even step away from the couch.
"C'mon Claire! You know I wasn't being serious!" He started giving me the puppy-dog eyes.
I yanked my hand away and glared at him. "I know! You never are!"
He looked at me with a mixture of sadness and confusion in his eyes. "What have I done to upset you?" he asked. "Because whatever it is, I'll do my best to make it up to you, I swear."
"It's just…" I said helplessly, making meaningless hand gestures here, there, and everywhere. "You never take anything seriously! Your mind doesn't seem to comprehend the fact that we could die any day!"
His face changed from sad to angry. "Have you ever considered that you take everything too seriously?"
"Why dwell on things that aren't true?" I said smugly.
Now he was back to looking confused. "Dwell?"
"Oh god." I muttered under my breath. "I'll be in my room when you come to apologise."
"Don't hold your breath," he said absently. Probably still trying to remember what 'dwell' means.
Once in my room, I let out a strangled sob. Why had I done that? I loved Shane and here I was picking fights with him. Why can't anything be simple? Well I knew the answer to that – because we lived in Morganville.
I collapsed onto the bed and began to cry. What if Shane broke up with me? What if he finally realised what a geek I am and never wants to see me again? You're over-reacting! I told myself, but there was still a small voice at the back of my head whispering 'He doesn't love you… he never did!' I tried to ignore it but I couldn't for a second longer. Screw my pride, I needed to go down and apologise to him!
Just as I was about to open the door and walk out, it flew open and hit me on the head. "Ow," I muttered.
"Oh shit CB!" She squeaked. "I'm sorry!"
I touched the spot where the door had hit me and winced. "Don't worry 'bout it, I'm fine." She didn't look convinced.
"Oh, there's already a bump! Stay here while I get an ice pack!" She said, panicked. I began to protest but she was already out the door in a blur of black and white. I sighed, my head actually did really hurt, but I couldn't tell Eve that – she felt bad enough already.
She was back soon with a bag of ice. I gave a weak smile to show I was grateful and placed it over my forehead. "So what did you want to talk about?" I asked, I was eager to get back to Shane. Her eyes immediately turned glassy. I gasped and put my arms around her. "Eve what's wrong? Please tell me!" She was crying now, so much that she couldn't talk. She handed me a crumpled sheet of paper. The writing was smudged with tears and crumpled from someone reading it over and over again.
Dear Eve, it said.
Before I explain what this letter is about, I want you to know that your father and I always loved you very much, even if we weren't very good at showing it. You were adopted when you were young, your real parents evidently couldn't handle the stress of parenthood and abandoned you at the nearest orphanage. We took you home when you were 3 months old and have had you ever since. Please don't let this colour your view of us and we hope that you will forgive us one day for not telling you earlier.

"They were murdered last night along with Jason," she said, her voice wavering. I didn't know how to respond so I just hugged her tighter.
