If I ever catch up with the person who did this to me, I'm going to give them hell. I didn't have the most perfect life cut out for me, but I was content. Content with school, content with my family, and most important, content with love.
Tyler. Oh, that name still sends shivers up and down my spine. His warm brown eyes would send me to Heaven and back whenever he looked at me. And his dirty blonde hair that went to his eyebrows was so soft. I could just picture myself running my hands through them this very minute. Is he long gone? Yes. Try hundreds of years. But back when I still lived as a human, he was the love of my life. We were inseparable. I'm talking about that flower-giving, spark-flying, cookie-cutter relationship. We had it all. I wouldn't have changed it for anything in the world. But, of course, nothing good lasts forever. And I laugh darkly at the irony in that phrase, because, I, Isabella Swan, a vampire, does in fact, last forever.
Back to the story. We even had plans to get married and go off to college together. I'm telling you, every single girl, and guy, for that matter, was jealous of our movie-like relationship. But, like I said, all good things come to and end. Do I know how it happened? Not a clue. All I vaguely remember was driving in my car, on my way to Tyler's house. It was our one year anniversary too. I was just driving along, and all of a sudden, I felt my car jerk to a stop, like someone was preventing it from moving. My head slammed into the steering wheel from the forcer of the stop. I instantly smelt, and felt the blood trickling down my face. I stomped hard on the gas a couple times. I turned my neck to look out the back windshield, and to my surprise, nothing, or no one was there. When I faced back to the front, there was this inhumanly gorgeous man in the passenger seat of my car.
I gasped, and me put his hand over my mouth, a but forcefully. I could feel the tears start to form in my widened eyes, and all the while he just kept shushing me. As if someone would hear. We were out in the middle of nowhere, for goodness sakes! I guess there really was some disadvantages of having a house right by a forest. Also some very great advantages too, I might add... But that's history, and beyond the point. I attempted to scream, but that only made him clamp down harder. I swear I even heard a crack.
He moved us so he was in the drivers seat, and I was right along side of him, still being unprivileged to speak. He began driving, and didn't stop until there was only one house in sight- Tyler's. I immediately began to long for the house, to be in its warmths, and engulfed in Tyler's strong arms. I started squirming, eyes fixed on the house. My mystery capturer followed my gaze, and chuckled darkly.
"House of a friends, huh?" He asked, tauntingly. Well, I would answer that, my dear kidnapper, but I seem to be uncapable of doing so. I 'hmp'ed, and crossed my arms. "You want to be sassy?" He sounded like he was clenching his teeth together. I felt a sudden pain in both my arms, like they'd been pulled from their sockets. I cried out in pain, but that only made him angrier. "Shut up!" He smacked my face.
"P-Pleas.." I tried to manage, but there was so much blood in my mouth that I ended up choking. I coughed, and blood spewed everywhere. My taker froze, and that was when I first noticed his eyes.
Blood red. They instantly changed to black. His mouth began to drop, like he was smelling the most sweetest aroma of warm cookies on an early Christmas day. He fixed his hungry gaze on me, and began to lick his lips. He pulled his face closer to mine, almost as if he was going to kiss me. I tried to scoot away, but his arms tightened around my waist. My breathing picked up, and I realized these would most likely be the last minutes of my life. I thought of Tyler. I knew he wouldn't be able to survive without me. I looked at my soon to be killer with pleading eyes, and he didn't even falter. Tears continued to flow down my face, and he didn't even stop to wipe them.
I thought of my family, and everything else I would be leaving behind. My fragile Mom. This would just crush her! As it would my Dad. They split when I was little. My Mom eventually remarried, but my Dad continued with life alone. He didn't have anybody but me to live for. I was actually living with him. Well, not anymore.
This beautiful demon pressed his lips to mine, and even though I couldn't do anything to prevent it, I still felt a stabbing pain in my heart, because I felt I was betraying Tyler. I sobbed more as he moved his tongue around my mouth. I could be mistaken, but it actually felt like he was licking up the blood. Now that was just weird. I thought so at the time, at least. Now I live off blood. Not human blood, no. Animal blood. That is why my eyes are golden, unlike my killers red eyes.
He pulled away from my mouth, and sure enough, there was blood covering his lips. He growled with hunger, and dipped his mouth to my neck. I felt a sharp pain where his put his lips, and I felt the motion of sucking coming from his mouth. I began to feel weaker, slowly but surely. He stopped abruptly, and removed his mouth from my neck, and cursed. He threw me back to the passenger seat, and sped off. I managed to open my eyes and look out the window in time to see a very familiar form running towards the car. I vaguely heard the sound of a car following us, but I couldn't be sure, because I began to focus my attention on the burning sensation in my neck.
It rose in intensity, and I let out a shriek of pain. I didn't hear my killer talk, but I felt a slap on the face. I couldn't put my finger on why he would be burning me. As the heat grew, I felt the car make a sharp turn, and screech to a stop. The cold arms of my taker wrapped around my waist, and pulled me from my car. I felt the rush of wind whipping across my body, and it felt like he was running at an insane speed. He came to a stop, and gently set me down on the smooth, damp grass. I barely heard him talk through my agony, but I heard just enough.
"Consider yourself lucky." He growled. "You tasted great. I would've loved to finish you off, but your little friend starting coming to your car." He kicked my side, but it was almost as if I was numb. I felt it, but it wasn't anywhere near as bad as the fire. I would've taken his kick a thousand times before enduring such burning. "Now. You're going to wake up in about three days. It burns, I know. Suck it up. Just remember that you're a vampire now. You can drink animal blood, or human blood. Take your pick." He paused, as if he was letting that information sink in. "You know, if this wasn't such a mistake, and you were turning into a vampire in more... pleasant conditions, I would even stick around to see your full transformation. You're going to be beautiful."
Yeah, right. I was nowhere near it. Tyler always told me otherwise, but, still. He was actually smart not to stick around. If he was there when I awoke, I would've ripped his head off right then and there. I could've done it, too.
"I'm really sorry, kid." He replied, his voice even showing his remorse. "I didn't mean for this to happen. As in, you being stuck in this life. I'm not even going to sugar coat it. It's tough. But we all make it through." I tried to continue to listen to him talk. I was grateful for it, because it got my mind away from the burn a bit. A bit. The next time I was able to hear him talk, I was shocked. "It's been two days. Only one more day to go. I'm leaving, now. I would stay, but, you're going to be pissed. And a newborn isn't the most safest creature to be around, let alone a pissed one." He even chuckled softly. He touched my cheek, and sighed. "Goodbye."
I didn't hear another word from him, and haven't since then. Lucky him.
The fire soon began to decrease, and even drained from some parts of my body. But while it removed from some parts, it increased in one place- my heart. The burn was twice the temperature as the rest of the burn put together! I cried out in pain, even though I knew nobody would hear me. My hearts beating soon sped up, almost like helicopter blades. Then it slowed, shuttered, and thumped it's last beat it would ever beat.
Forever.
