A/N Ok, this is a new series of short drabbles/oneshots. In the end there will be 100 stories, and I am writing them with Namduts, my fantastic mate! I hope to get about two stories up each week and each will be between 100 and 1000 words. I hope you enjoy them!
Beginning
EPOV
I felt like my whole body was burning up, like the throat of a parched man with no water in sight. I was slipping away, and I had nothing to stop me from dieing, nothing to grip on to. My mother was dead. The doctors didn't know that I knew, they thought it would be the end of me. But it didn't matter, it wasn't like I was going to survive the night anyway.
Strangely, when I heard them taking away the body, I didn't feel anything. Just a gaping nothingness beneath the thick layer of pain, submerging me in the torture yet no emotions seeping through. I wanted to feel something, wanted to grieve for my mother, but I just couldn't.
I heard Doctor Carlisle come in, the gentle creak of his footsteps as he approached my bed. He was considering something, trying to make a decision. I had a way of knowing these things, like I was picking up the general gist of someone's thoughts. I wondered what he was deciding on. I didn't really care, it wouldn't make a difference to me anymore. I just wanted the pain to stop.
I felt him come closer, his cool hand resting on my arm. His hand was so cold, but everything felt cold to my feverish skin now. Strangely I felt him lean towards me, and purely by force of will I opened my eyes to slits, curiosity aroused. What was he doing?
He bent his head and whispered in my ear "Your mother wants me to save you" and then he bit down on my neck, his teeth piercing my skin easily. He backed away, his hand clenched over his mouth, as if he was trying incredibly hard to resist something.
I didn't feel anything at first but slowly a deeper, more vibrant burn began to spread from my neck, a thousand times worse than the burn from the fever and I felt it slowly spreading through my body, consuming me. I think I screamed. And that was just the beginning.
A/N Please take the time to review, me and Namduts need to know what we are doing wrong if we are to improve our writing!
