It happens every decade or so, I walk down the dimly lit street and happen across a news paper. I don't intentionally look toward the date, it just sort of happens. It catches my eye.
28th April 2009
Well, interesting. It's been 14 years since I've looked at the date, and 358 since I've cared. Which would mean, I'm 380 years old chronologically and 22 years old physically.
A total of 350 years alone, a long time to be alone, an even longer time to be an immortal and alone. Carlisle was there for the first five or so years, Emmett, for the next three, but they found their mates and 'settled down' well as much as a vampire can.
I've not been jealous of them, I've not been contemptuous, I've just felt empty, hollow, and dead without her. My heart hasn't beat in 358 years, and it won't, not until I meet her; my mate.
The dirt has turned to cobblestone, the cobblestone has turned to pavement, and now here I am, wandering the streets, looking for my kill, like the sick masochistic vampire I am.
I've never killed, I've never turned another, I've never dreamed of it. The vile creature that I am will not win. I will remain with a soul. I will remain, for the most part, human, albeit a trapped human, but none the less, human in soul.
Daylight, it's never been a problem for me. So long as I don't kill, my soul stays intact, and I don't burn for what I am.
The screech of tires turned my head.
Another crime, another death, it happens every day, well 3am can't really be considered day, but, still for those who only need 4 hours sleep it's a bright and chirpy morning. Well for all those other than the guy now tangled around a telephone pole.
His blood hit the bitumen, it reeked of alcohol, the only way a Vampire can get drunk. Drinking already intoxicated blood. Eh, you win some you lose some. I made my way over to the car.
Waste not, want not. As I got closer I heard his heart slowing, like the sound of butterfly wings fighting a storm. By the time I reach the door he will be gone. That's when lightning cracked around me. Fuck, a storm. A small gasp sounded from the passenger's seat.
I felt a pull, I had to get to that car.
Striding faster I reached the car. I smelt two different blood types. One the thick heavy whisky scented blood, which had a woodsy smell to it, and the other, a sweet vodka scent with something else. I liked that scent.
I pushed the car free from the pole, the groaning metallic frame shifting and crumpling under my hands.
I heard a flutter of that heart again. I looked into the driver, yep defiantly dead. My eyes were compelled by that insistent beating to look down to the passenger seat floor. Lightning cracked above me again, my eyes shot to the floor. I saw scruffy brown hair, clearly the top of a head.
THUNDER.
Clearly she was a woman. I unconsciously reached in to pull her out. Her heart thudded. Lightning again.
THUNDER.
She let out a small groan of protest.
THUNDER.
I pulled her frail body into my arms, her head fell back and her hair dropped out of her face.
THUNDER THUNDER THUNDER.
THUD THUD THUD.
Not thunder.
She flickered her eyes open. Big brown sparkling orbs met my own eyes.
THUD THUD THUD!
She lifted her head.
Yours.
Ba Boom Ba Boom Ba Boom.
Not thunder, heart beat.
Blooded, yours.
"Mine." I rasped my first word in over 20 years.
Her eyes went silver and closed as thunder crashed around us.
Protect.
I held her close and moved swiftly toward the closest building.
Mine.
So, whaddya think? It's our first Vampy one... hope you like. REVIEW!!!
Yeah, we sorta took the whole vampire thing and took it to a whole new level.
Ex's and oh's don't forget the oh's!
Andi & Megz!
