I Stayed up late writing this so i don't know if i misspelled a lot of words sorry, i would really love input on what my readers think should happen the story in my head is always changing and i never have an attitude for the characters set in stone so lets just see how you like it. Reviews are appreciated! Hope you enjoy and hope you guys think it was worth the wait. Thanks for reading!

Paul reached over to Marko and nudged him. "So you like that Anna girl?" he asked, "What you guys do when you were alone?" Marko nodded. "Yeah I like her a lot," "Bet she has some tasty veins." Paul interrupted. Marko looked over to him. "Umm I guess?" He wasn't sure how to respond to that. "She's kind of my girl now I'd prefer you not say things like that its just awkward" He stood up and walked over towards David and Dwayne.

"Aren't you thirsty?" Dwayne asked as David lifted up the bottle of blood to Marko. "You haven't fed in two nights." "I haven't felt the need to" Marko replied still taking a drink from the bottle. It was a mixture of all their blood it was thin and was never as sweet as the blood they would take from their usual victims.

Paul looked at the three of them annoyed. Marko had been the topic of discussion when they were out and still was now. Paul laid down on one of the mattresses. He thought of Bailey. Her sun kissed skin hot her bone structure ready for the taking. She looked sweet and smelled like lavender lotion, the kind most girls would buy from a Victoria's Secret store. He smiled. He thought of Anna. There was a girl he could think of everyday. Her black lions mane of hair framed her face and when the wind filtered through it he became intoxicated by her scent. He wanted to touch her neck and feel the veins pulse with hot blood. He wanted to feel her warm skin. He sighed and sat up hoping none of the boys had tuned in to what he had been thinking. He had to be careful with his thoughts the boys were a crew and knew what each other thought all the time, Hearing Marko's thoughts made it all the more difficult.

Bailey had been getting ready for an hour now. Anna paced the room impatiently. The sun was already about to go down and she was still waiting for Bailey so they could get to the boardwalk. "Bailey! You've been making that stupid O with your mouth for a half hour putting that crap on your face." Bailey set down the mascara brush, "Geeze okay okay I'm finished already."

Bailey talked every second of their walk to the boardwalk. "Anna I really like this guy, I don't know how I should be around him." "Bailey you only talked to him for like two minutes." Anna laughed. She wasn't used to seeing Bailey get so worked up over a guy, she hoped that Paul would be someone worth while for Bailey.

Anna saw Marko already in the crowd. He was staring right at her David and Dwayne by his side as always of course. "Okay Bailey, Have fun on your date thing I'll meet you at the usual spot at the usual time." Anna treaded off. "Anna I'm a nervous wreck! Your supposed to calm me down." Anna looked back "Bailey you look gorgeous just go out there and do what you normally do." She smiled

Bailey let out a puff of breathe.
Marko greeted Anna with a hug and a kiss on the cheek. "You look beautiful." Marko smiled. Anna laughed. "Marko I'm wearing athletic shirts and an old tee shirt. Nothing epic." She leaned up to kiss him.
"Well hello to you too." Dwayne smirked.

"Marko tells us the two of you are official now." David said lighting up a cigarette.

Anna smiled. "Well yeah I guess you could say that." She took a hold of Marko's hand.

"Well don't let the two of us stand in your way. "I don't mind sharing him." Anna smiled and looked up at Marko. "I know you guys are all like brothers I'm not here to interrupt things." "I told you she was perfect." Marko smiled.

Anna took a quick look around in search of Paul. She wondered if he was the one she had suspected of being with her sister.

Marko slipped an arm around her waist. "What would you like to do tonight? We could go riding again, go to the beach, the pier, the cave, stay here, whatever you want." Marko smiled.

Bailey picked at the edges of her fingernails looking around for Paul. "Hey did you think I was going to ditch you or something?" Bailey turned around and saw Paul, she sighed and the crease of worry was erased from her forehead. "Maybe." she smiled. "I wouldn't dream of ditching date with you, Bailey." He smiled. "So I was thinking the two of us could go down to the pier a band's going to be playing there tonight." Bailey smiled. "Yea sounds great."

Paul looked down at her, Why couldn't she be her sister? She little physical attributes similar to her, she didn't smell the same her blood wasn't as vibrant or beckoning to him.

When they arrived Paul leaned on a rail examining her. "So you realize your a bombshell, right? You don't look like you belong here around all us commoners." She laughed. "Yeah I know I look kind of out of place here." She shrugged. "So what's the story behind you?" Paul asked.

Bailey looked up "My sister and I moved here a while ago, not that much to tell. "Why did you guys move here?" Paul asked.

Bailey looked down. "Oh well…" she paused.

Paul smirked. "Hey its fine if you cant tell me."

But Bailey did want to tell him, She wanted to tell him about her, her life, her family, everything. She wanted to know about her and wonder about her.

"Its a weird story. I'll get around to telling you it some other time." She bit her lip.

"Another time?" Paul looked over her. "So I'm guess that's an invitation of date two?"

Bailey walked over to him scooting close in front of him. "This is a very subtle date." She smiled. "I think you should make your move soon."

Paul smirked. He placed a hand on her lower back and pushed her hair to the side. He looked at her a moment. Nothing more. He just stared into her eyes. He leaned down and kissed her. Paul tasted her lips against his own. He tried to make sparks, make supernovas and fire works the way that Anna made with Paul. He wanted to feel the way that Paul felt. Why did Anna's sister have to be so drastically different than the girl he wanted."

Bailey saw it all, she felt it. She fallowed Paul's lips as they started to part.

"Wow"

"Yeah wow." Paul pulled Bailey by her waist and took her with him to the beach.

Anna had removed her shoes and socks and sat squinching her toes in the sand feeling the water swish over her feet.

"Anna." Paul moved the hair that covered her face behind her ears.

"You say my name so often." She smiled.

"I like the way it just rolls of my tongue."

She laughed. "Marko." She kissed him giving him a quick peck on the lips. "Marko" She kissed him again. "Marko" and again. "Marko" again. "Marko" and once more.

He laughed. Anna smiled up to him.

"Wow, how is it that I've known you a total of three days and I cant keep you off my mind." Marko looked down a bit embarrassed he was being so lamely honest.

"I could ask you the same question." Anna smiled.

"Weird isn't it? How everything changes when you like someone. How your whole life starts going for back flips?" She looked over to him.

Marko wanted to tell her. He wanted her to know what he was. He was afraid though. Would she still be willing to kiss him or look at him the same if she really had any idea of what kind of monster her was?

"Marko, what are you thinking?" Anna asked.

"You"

She smiled. "Well what about me?"

"I'm thinking of being with you every night this summer." He smiled.

"Hmm do you come up with all your own lines?" She asked

He smiled. "Nah I usually get Paul to come up with them for me, he's a hopeless romantic at heart. You should hear my one liners. David has been an excellent teacher in that area of expertise."

Anna laughed. "I don't think they like me much yet.

Paul looked at her. "They love you. They think its pretty great that you give us the days to hang out. Most girls want all the attention they could get."

"Guess I'm just not most girls."

"Definitely not"

She shrugged.

Marko leaned in to kiss her.

Paul could hear it. He could feel Marko's lips on Anna's. He felt grown
form in his stomach. He looked back to Bailey who was laying in the sand. She smiled up at her such a pretty picture. "Bailey." "Mhm?"

He laid down and looked at her, why couldn't she just be the one?

Marko had found his mate, why couldn't Bailey be his.

He leaned down and kissed her neck thinking of Anna.

He could feel the blood flowing throughout her body.

She could be the one…

No.

It was Anna.

Paul felt the grown form at the bottom of his stomach again frustration overcame him. It took so much for him to move away from her. To tear his lips from Bailey's neck.

Bailey sat up placing and hand on Paul's shoulder. "Are you okay?" He squinted his eyes and looked up at her, "I'm fine Bailey." He smiled and kissed her cheek. "How about I give you a ride home?"

Anna waited with Marko at the carousel. Bailey was ten minutes late. Marko could see the worry in her face. "Anna I'm sure your sister just went on home without you, nothing to worry about." "I don't think Bailey would do that we always meet here so we can walk home together."

"How about I walk you home tonight then." Marko smiled. "I'll ask David and Dwayne to keep an eye out for your sister.

Anna sighed. "Yeah okay."

The kiss goodnight felt right. It was quick, simple, sweet, and amazing. Something simple that made a girl feel worth while.

Bailey was already in bed half asleep.

"You jerk" Anna kicked the mattress.

Bailey grunted and looked up. "Do you have any clue how worried I was about you. She was grateful Bailey was safe but still. "You suck so bad Bailey! I thought you had been kidnapped or something!"

"Quit being such a weirdo Anna, look I'm fine alive and well exhausted. Can we please just fight tomorrow!" she rolled over and pulled the covers over her head.

Paul knew what he had to do. He hated what he had to do. But he knew it was necessary. He would lose everyone but gain everything he wanted. David could feel it something was going to happen to break everyone up. Something that would screw up what the boys had strived for. He couldn't let it happen.

The boys were actually going to bed a few hours before usual, they had another few hours before the sun would rise, "Hey Marko?" Paul whispered trying to speak to him while he was already have asleep and the rest of the boys were already dead to the world. "Hmm?" Marko moved a bit trying to listen to Paul. "I'm happy for you." Paul said. "Mmmhm" Marko yawned now becoming as dead as the rest.

Paul closed his eyes his plan was simple. It was messy, though, and a bit dangerous. He had to wonder if Anna was worth it,. Maybe he should wait it out. Maybe he could just let it go. But Paul wasn't the type to do such a thing. He had his mind set and knew what he wanted, but he couldn't help thinking of everything was worth it all.
After he felt that Marko was dead asleep, he headed out and flew to Anna and Bailey's house.
