She debated for hours about going to him, she could not decide if she wanted to finally be that close to him again. It was going to be hard for her. He was he weakness and she knew it. How could she be that close to him and not take him, not turn him. He smelled so sweet. The temptation. Yet she had to go to him. He called her.

She knew where he was, she had kept up with his schedule and knew he was in Iowa, she knew what cross fit he worked out at, and she knew how to get to him. When she became a vampire, she developed a vision that she had never known. So she was able to see individual thoughts and could connect with others physically. All she had to do was touch them. This was part of the reason she kept her physical contact to a minimum. She had met several individuals within the last year that had made her thoughts a living nightmare. She also had kept her sexual appetite at bay as well.

Knowing that this would cause issues, the connection with a human man internally would cause not only emotional issues, but she would begin to absorb his thoughts and she was not ready for the emotional baggage of that being a part of her at this point.

The night she saw Seth, as he walked by her his hands inadvertently touched her shoulder, which was bare due to the strapless black dress she was wearing. Her mind took her to him instantly. His thoughts were so dark and twisted. She sat quietly as her mind flashed with some of his previous escapades. She saw a brunette as he grabbed her by the shoulders and threw her into the wall, just how she liked it. His smile cocked, his laugh a dry desire of wanting her to complete the task at hand and leave.

Trina jumped as she sat on her couch. "I can't do this any longer, I have to find him. I can't shake this; I have been running from this for months. I have to have him."

As she spoke these words, it seemed that Neal felt her because her phone rang.

"Yes Neal?"

"Stop reading my thoughts Trina." He said with a smile

"I can't help it, this is what I inherited from you when you turned me. What's up?"

"Are you ready for this?"

"For what Neal?"

"For him, your twin flame?"

"What are you talking about Neal, I told you I don't believe in that crap."

"You forget who I am. Don't try lying to me, it doesn't work. You have almost revealed yourself to this guy three times over the past six months. He is your twin flame."

"Whatever…"

"Trina you are literally about to go see this man. How can you not tell me he is the one? I explained all of this to you. Why can you not just accept this as truth and embrace it."

"Neal, please shut up. I can't deal with all of this right now."

"Trina, there is nothing wrong with it, but you have to accept this. You also cannot approach him as you are…you will scare him. He will not know how to take you."

"Neal I wasn't going to."

"You weren't going to what? Go to him, Trina your over there going bat shit crazy right now. Stop denying yourself. "

"Neal, how the hell do I approach him?"

"You already have, in your own way. I am just saying be careful ok."

"Neal, he smells so sweet to me, I can see him in my mind right now, how can I stop myself from taking him? I want him so bad."

"It's ok, are you sure it's not thirst?"

"No, I could feed on anyone, I want to."

"You want to make love to him don't you?"

"Yes."

"Are you ready for this?"

"I mean I don't know, but this is just how I am, if I get rejected then so be it, but he is driving me insane and I have to put and end to all of this."

"Ok fine, I have a friend that has a private jet. Let me see if he can fly you down there tonight."

"If I can't fly out tonight, I will leave first thing in the morning. I have way more than enough money to pay for my ticket."

"You are so stubborn, let me do what I want. You make me want to strangle you sometimes."

"I mean you can try, but I am immortal so I would probably just stare at you like I am staring at the phone now."

Neal laughed loudly and said he would text her in an hour to let her know what to do. She had already disconnected the call and was flashing around the room trying to decide what she wanted to wear. Her eyes began to glisten as she stopped and allowed the memories of the first night of their meeting began to flood her. She felt a heat rise in the pit of her stomach. Her eyes closed and she fell back on the bed quietly. Her hair flowing around her in a brown pool. She lay there.

"Seth you better not reject me, I swear you will regret it."

She was quiet, as she felt the anxious desire to touch him rise within her. Her body reacting before she even knew it. She could feel his presence all around her. His lips seemed to find their way against her skin. His hands roaming her frame. His eyes burning their way into her immortal existence and she smiled.

"Your Not here with me Seth. Get out of my head."

As he sat with his friends, everyone noticed the change in him, the quiet. Normally he was very open, laughing and joking, but tonight he just sat and observed. He kept hearing voices within him, voices that seemed to echo softly. He seemed to have gotten darker over the past few weeks and everyone saw it in his aura.

The funny thing was his mind seemed to be reaching out to someone, whispering thoughts that only he could hear and that scared him. Not being in control scared him and at this point he wasn't.

"Where are you?"

"I'm close but not close enough."

"What's your name?"

"Trina

"What do you want from me? "

"What do you want from me Seth is the question?"

"I don't know," he whispered

"I mean it's a simple answer to a basic question Seth, are you ready to order or not." Dom said as everyone stared at him.

"What? What are you? "

"Are you ready to order sir?" The young lady said as she stood in front of him, with her pad in hand. Seth could see the annoyance on her face as she waited for him to respond.

"Crap, I'm sorry, yeah The Avalanche Burger, no sauce though, extra cheese and a tall frosted beer man, I need a drink."

"You sure that's all."

"Yep."

The young lady walked away, and Seth took his hair that hung in a frizzy mess and gathered it, while placing it in a bun. Dom looked over at him in a slight bit of confusion. "Bro you good?"

"Got a lot on my mind."

"Want to talk about it?"

"Nahh not the time or place. Plus you wouldn't believe me if I told you."

"I need to puff on this stick anyway, come outside with me, you don't know what I believe and don't believe. Come on." Dom said as he rose from the table with a cigarette in his hand. Seth followed and stood silently for a few until Dom nudged him.

"Alright, but you tell anyone I'm going to deny we ever had this conversation. Got me?"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah come with it man…"

"Dom, you ever thought you had this person out there. Like you have never met them, you just know. Its like you see them in your dreams and just know that they are the one for you?"

"Oh you mean met them in your mind before you met them face to face?"

Seth looked at him confused that he understood. He had known Dom since childhood. When he met him, he was one of the first black guys his age that was into metal. He had seen him several times with a Izzy Pop shirt on, but the day he saw him with the Megadeth emblem scribbled on his notebook, he decided the had to stop him and see what his deal was. Come to find out the both of them had the same interest. Metal, Wrestling and Women. As they grew, their friendship grew as well. So he knew some of Seth's darkest thoughts.

"I mean you don't think I am crazy?"

"Dude hell no, that was how I felt when I met Angie. I felt as if she was destined for me man. I felt like I had seen her in my dreams a thousand times."

"Dude, but I saw her, like I literally have seen her face to face a few times. At shows, I even saw her last night." Seth said as his voice trailed off.

"Did you say anything to her?'

"She was asleep. In her car." He said softly

"You stalking chicks now huh?"

"No Dom, it wasn't even like tha.."

"Dude I'm joking, I'm joking. Look, if you feel like she is it, don't let IT slip from your grasp, seriously."

"I don't even know who she is, I mean I have never met her."

"Doesn't mean she isn't the one…sometimes we just know when they are coming to us, our body gives us a warning. When you feel that little tingle of confusion, you seem to hear their voice. Its coming man."

"So basically go for it huh?"

"I mean what ya got to lose?"

"I don't know. I feel like my sanity."

"Your so dramatic, come on lets go eat."

Seth laughed and the two of them went back into Mighty Joe's Burgers and Wings, and Seth forgot about it all, and just enjoyed himself. In the back of his thoughts though she lingered…softly whispering his name.

Seth had been in been at the gym since almost 6 a.m. Hanging with his boys last night made brought him to a place of peace within himself. So he decided to go into the gym before heading over to the next class that he and Matt were teaching.

Seth thought of the other night and could not forget the beauty that was before him, he kept wondering if she was thinking of him the same way he was her. Music in his ear, he began lifting weights and working with the beat of "Wild Eyes" by Parkway Drive beat in his ears. He fought his urge to go in on the song with his own movement. Continuing to go from one area of the gym to the next, pushing himself as he always did.

Seth loved the fact that he was different; he loved the fact that he controlled his destiny; it was what he loved about himself. He felt that everything that he had accomplished and experienced was based on his personal fire to be greater than most people. His inside truth was he just wanted to be the man that he was supposed to. From failed experiences to a failed relationship. He faced them all head on and moved on.

Now here he stood, sweat pouring from every pore of his body. Every part of him aching, and still pushing. She crossed his thoughts with every movement. Her scent filled his mind. His mind wondered how she felt, was she soft or was her body firmer. Was she quiet…was she one that was loud and obnoxious. What was she like? Her smile, he wanted to see her smile. Her breast he wanted to touch them.

His mind joined his body as he became erect, with no knowledge of it. He continued from one area to the next. Not paying attention. He could feel her lips caressing his skin…. push ups continued to make him sweat. He could feel her nails as they dug into his skin…the weights he lifted excessively as he stood watching himself in the mirror. Her eyes locking with his as he entered her tightness and it surrounded him…groaning he continued to push himself physically as she overtook him.

"Fuck!" he shouted to himself as the words echoed in the Crossfit gym. He could not let this go. "Leave me the hell alone, damn. I don't even know who you are! Fuck!" he said to himself as he threw his towel to the side.

"Do you want to know me Seth?" she whispered as she walked in.
