Chapter 4

Claire's POV

When I awoke I found myself in my bed, Michael must have carried me up here, I thought. I got up and started my daily routine but i was extremely shocked when I was about to freshen up and looked in the mirror. That's when I remembered the events that took place last night. All of it was coming back to me, the pain, the anger, the sadness. I only hoped that Shane had taken time alone to cool off and would be better today but I didn't think that was a possibility. I got dressed and was ready to go to college, but then I remembered that I couldn't. I couldn't go out in the sunlight anymore. I could no longer go to College, what would I do now? I needed to talk to Amelie, but would she be mad? Mad at Myrnin, or mad at me, or both? I wondered if Michael was here, Shane and Eve were probably at work. Eve! She dosen't know. What would she think? Has Michael even told her? I really needed something to do to take my mind off things. I refuse to think about Shane. I won't. Like he said, we're over now and there's nothing I can do about it. Thinking that caused tears to form but they did not spill, I'm not going to cry over some guy, even if he is the love of my life. I have to move on, just not yet. I'm not ready especially when I'm still madly in love with someone who despises me.

My thoughts were interupted by the loud bang of the door, I wonder who that could be? Well it's not Michael, he can't go out in the day either so that means it's Shane or Eve. The heavy footsteps that were quickly approaching me told me everything I needed to know. Eve. Time to explain myself once again. I took a deep breath as she stood before me in all her Gothic glory and examined me, relaisation came across her face and she was completely shocked.

"Eve, I can explain" I only hoped that she would let me explain and that she could accept it but after Shane's reaction I wouldnt count on it. I really didn't want her to hate me over this, I couldn't let myself think that, our friendship was too strong for her to dislike me, it had to be.

"You had better explain! What the hell happened?"Well at least she is going to let me explain so that has to be a good sign.

"Okay well I went to Myrnin's lab because he called me telling me to be there as soon as possible and it was evident that he didn't drink any blood for some time. So he bit me but apparently I'm too important for this town to die so he changed me and yesterday Shane...Shane saw me and he...he said some things and he broke up with me."At that I burst into tears and Eve came to my side and pulled me into a hug, trying to comfort me.

"Claire honey, its going to be okay. Shane didn't deserve you anyway, he's a prick and I'm going to beat his ass when I next see him." I laughed a little at that but I could tell that Eve was really angry with him so I wouldn't be surprised if she did beat him.

"Eve, please don't, I don't want Shane hurt, I still love him and the hardest part is knowing that he dosen't return my love." I cried even harder while Eve comforted me. How I wish it were Shane's arms wrapped around me. I didn't know if I could even be in the same room as him without feeling the emotional pain I am feeling now. I hate this! I hate being a vampire..oh great now I'm thirsty...and Eve is so close. Before I knew it I was leaning into her neck as my fangs slowly descended. They were pressed into her neck now and I bit down hard, my fangs piercing her skin. I sucked on the warm tantalizing blood oozing from her flesh while she screamed. What the hell am I doing? She's my friend and I'm slowly killing her but I cant bring myself to stop. It tastes so good.

I push Eve away but with too much force as she is thrown against the kitchen counter. She shows no signs of movement while blood is still flowing down her neck. I want so much just to taste it again but she really needed help and I was the only one there to save her. I ran to her but I had no idea what to do and I was still trying to fight off my bloodlust. I only drank 30% percent of her blood so she is most likely to be okay. I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and called Michael. He is going to hate me so much but I know I deserve it and Eve needs help. After a few moments of ringing he finally answered.

"Hello"

"Michael! I need you here at the house quick!" I was afraid of what his reaction would be to what I have done, he would never forgive me for almost killing his girlfriend and my bestfriend.

"Why? What's going on Claire? Are you okay?" He sounded quite panicky but he hasn't heard the half of it yet.

"You really shouldn't worry about me right now. It's Eve. I bit her." There. It's out, now I've just ruined our friendship forever. I think I'm pretty good at ruining things especially in the past the few days.

"WHAT! IS SHE OKAY? IF SHE'S NOT OKAY CLAIRE, I SWEAR I WILL KILL YOU!." He sounded so menacing that I was really scared. I was right, he is never going to forgive me for this.

"I don't know, Michael. She's unconscious and I don't know what to do. Please just come here quick." I was so scared for Eve, she still hasn't moved and I'm the one that caused this. I am now a monster.

"I'm coming right over, you just get a cloth or something and press it to her wound until I get there." He seemed to be more calm, probably for Eve's sake but I knew that he was still pissed at me.

I realised that he hung up on me so I found a cloth and held it on her bloody wound on her neck. I saw two holes there and I was disgusted with myself because I did that. I hurt someone. I hurt my best friend. I only hoped that Michael would come here soon so he could help Eve, I just wanted her to give me a sign to show that she was okay.

A few minutes later the door banged shut. Michael was here. He ran to the kitchen ina speed that was anything but human. He had the most worried and frightened expression I have ever seen on him. I have never seen him look so scared...and I'm the one that caused it. He bent down and took Eve in his arms gently and walked away but as soon as he walked out,he turned back to me.

"I want you out of this house in two days and I want you to stay the hell away from us." Once that was said he walked out the room and I broke down crying. I hated myself so much, I caused so much mess and I could never fix it. I felt completely alone and rejected, being human was so much more better. It is best that I do leave so I can't put anyone else in danger. But why stop at leaving this house. Why not just leave this world? Why not just end this life?
