The Last One

"And down below your veins run dry your vacant eyes
I lost control your face is pale, your body's cold
And down below your veins run dry your vacant eyes
I lost control your face is pale, your body's cold"-Escape the Fate

It was the first Wednesday of October, October 1st to be exact. I was wearing my least favorite black skirt with my green and black striped tights, my combat boots and my black Paramore hoodie.
The morning was awful, an omen on the rise. It was raining softly, not too hard but enough to get you wet in a couple of minutes.
The sky was painted a dark charcoal color, looking the opposite of day. I was the first one at school, feeling a bit embarrassed
but trying to ignore the usual stares coming from the main office. I hated being early, but I also hated being late.
So, thanks to the many failed driver's test, every morning I have to walk around 10 minutes to get to school.
Which is fine with me, that's my work out of the day. Except today, because I was a soaking wet when I got to school.

I headed straight to the restroom, waiting for anyone else to come. I was in the middle of adding eyeliner to my eyelid, when my cell phone vibrated.
A text this early? I thought. I immediately checked and it was from Jake, my best friend. In our freshman year, everyone thought we were dating.
We hung out together all the time, and it was ridiculous how much we had a common. Two weeks and we shared lockers. Shared money, shared secrets.
Our parents met at our school's Open House, 2 years ago. My father really liked his mom, but we thought it was gross to think of them as a couple.
We're not sure why, maybe because they're grownups already.

2 mins until I get there. Meet me at the cafeteria would you :)?

Jacob is a year older than me, making him 18. His father left his mother 2 years after Mike was born, replying he was sick of a baby and wanted to be free.

Daliah, Jake's mom, never seemed to care and raised him all by herself. It was hard to talk about parents, and it's something we never brought up.
Jake knew my parents divorced after my mother walked out of my father's home, giving the excuse of her feeling "bored" and with no future in this small town.
Only to come back seventeen years later, due to her job as a plant researcher.

I walked slowly to the cafeteria, feeling glad students were starting to arrive. I spotted Mike, Jessica, Tyler and some other seniors, hanging around by the entrance door.
Eric, Angela and Lauren by the first table in the cafeteria, and finally Jacob entering the exit door. He hugged me awkwardly, realizing I was soaked from the rain.
He gave me a smile of approval and I followed him to the nearest empty table.

The school's breakfast sucked, as always. My morning wasn't a complete morning without it. So Jake decided to share his burrito with me.

"Beans and cheese? Aren't those the main gas producers?" Ignoring me, Jake looked down and rubbed his stomach.

"I don't feel good. It's not the burrito, trust me. No gas involved. It's just this worry I have. I don't know what it is" Jake said,
with a terrifying look and pose, as if someone had just stabbed him or something.

I knew what he was talking about, I'm sure everyone has had those feelings. So I didn't pay much attention to it and went back to finishing the burrito.

The day went on as usual, boring and confusing. Lately we've been having tests and quizzes like mad animals, as if the world were to end tomorrow
and we wouldn't have any other day left to take a test. The end of the school day arrived, Jacob and I were sitting in the hall, in front of our lockers.
Knowing how much it hurt me, I brought up Edward.

"He keeps starting at me sometimes. It's a creepy look. I just don't understand if he likes me back or not..." I started complaining,
I didn't want to realize how much of a pain I was being, talking about someone I would never have a chance with.

Edward has been my crush, no love, since the beginning of the year. He has all the qualities of my dream guy, and even though I have never spoken to him once
(Except that time he held the door open for me and I said "Thanks"), I think we share something. I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say "love" because honestly,
he's all I ever think about. He appears in my dreams, day and night. My stomach makes the funniest reactions when our eyes meet, and my knees feel
the weakest when I pass right next to him. Call it love or not, I want him. I want him in the most innocent, purest way, to the naughtiest, dirtiest way.
But no girl has ever dated him, at least not in the last month since I moved here. His family, "the Cullens", is the outcast of the school, making it even
more difficult for me to get a chance to talk to him.

So I decided to shut my mouth about it. Jacob noticed my bummed expression and tried to cheer me up by telling me how "he doesn't deserve me anyway" and
I "could do so much better". I got up, ready to go home to spend the rest of my day uselessly online or hearing Charlie's stories about how great the weekend will be,
just to let me down every Saturday morning.

"Bella, aren't you staying? Research on U.S Electoral College, remember?" Jake asked, as he handed me a bag of Flamin' Hot Funnyons he'd saved from lunch.
"I guess" I answered with my mouth full, and ran to catch up to him, heading to the library.

Books fascinate me. Not the autobiographies or non-fiction books, but the ones with interesting, illusory characters and stories. The ones with sad and unfair endings.
The ones where the protagonist lose, and make me want to plug my hair out. Just different books. It seems like I've read all the books in this library,
but I didn't want to check some out in the local public library, I owed two books since two summers ago.

As we entered the library, I threw away my trash and sat at the corner table at the very end of the library. The table was covered in anime and comic books cut outs,
protected by clear tape. I watched and somehow the library seemed packed today.

There was Ms. Goe sitting behind her desk and the book drop, Jessica going through some magazines Ms. Goe was giving out, Eric in the science fair book section,
Jake in the first computer by the entrance door, and other kids reading and talking constantly at their table.

It was five minutes before 5pm, when I first heard it. I thought someone had fainted or dropped 20 books to the floor at the same time. Or maybe Jacob had gone
on addictinggames and was playing that shooting game of his. But I was wrong.

I heard and saw two teachers including Ms. Goe scream their lungs out, crying agonizingly. There were 4 men at the library entrance, with black-holed cloth on their faces,
covering everything but their eyes, nose and mouth. Wearing all black clothes, each holding a gun, giving what seemed directions to each other.
They closed the library doors, and turned the lights off. I panicked, trying to find a place to hide. There was nothing but the table, and I managed to squeeze right under it.

What the hell? What's going on? Who are you? Oh my God, we're going to die! Help, help!

Everyone lost control of their minds and bodies. Others even tried going up to the masked men but only received a bloody nose and broken ribs in return.

I couldn't spot Jacob, the computer sit was empty. And then I heard his voice.

"Hey buddy, you got the wrong school. Forks High? Seriously? Is this some sick joke?"

What the fuck are you thinking Jacob?! They've got guns, and not the ones you managed to get this summer!

During this time, I yearn for courage to go protect Jacob. But really, what could I do? Breaking my thoughts, I heard a gunshot and saw Jake drop to the floor.
Then two, three gunshots, going everywhere. I covered my mouth with my hand and let the tears run down my face. The quietest noise and they would discover me, I thought.
I could feel the hot bump in my throat, cutting my saliva circulation and making it hard to breathe. My effort to look for Jacob was regretful, all I could see was his once beautiful face,
covered in dark red, wet blood, so I quickly turned away.

I tried looking at their faces, if that was going to be the last thing I did. I tried focusing on their mouths first. One had really white teeth; the other had some kind of mole
or dark dot right under his lip, nothing special about the others and neither of them with mustache. The eyes came next, but they were all dark brown,
I would say black but that would be impossible. And their noses had almost the same characteristics. My thoughts were pleading for help and my life somehow felt to be worth nothing.
I closed my eyes and let guilt and pain fill my heart. I don't know why today I even bother to come. But I regret doing it. I regret having to be a nerd and having to stay after school to finish up homework. I regret being so quiet all the time and never having the guts to confess my love for Edward. I regret not doing anything after my best friend Jake was killed.
If I was going to die today, I wished I'd die doing something I was to be proud of. Hiding under a table, watching your best friend die wasn't it.

Suddenly, the yelling stopped and I heard one of the covered man chuckle.

"Ready?"

"I think so."

Then what came next, was the weirdest, most repulsive thing I've ever seen. All the guys bend over, resting their knees on the ground, and started to, what seemed, suck on the dead people's neck.

What…? Are these pedophiles… but… dead…bodies…Jake..

Then I realized that they weren't only sucking on their necks, but biting on them, like if it was food, a sweet or a fascinating drink. So fast, so gross.
I could see the blood run down one of the guy's mouth, all the way to his neck. Are these animals dressed in disguised as humans? Vampires, sharks, carnivores? WITCHES?!

Once I heard them release a "satisfied and full" sigh, they left the library, running, if not flying.

I don't think these guys had a clue what they were doing because if they did, they wouldn't have left me alive.

Wow, i finally finished it the way I wanted.
Please comment/review it and feel free to ask questions :)

Thank you!
