Chapter Four – A Nightmare On Greene Street
I laid back on my bed, thinking. Why would Stefan come and say sorry to me? Elena's the one he fought with. She's the one heartbroken.
Maybe Stefan liked me...?
"HA!" I thought aloud. Noooo way. He definitely does NOT. Even if he did, at least that's better than Damon liking me. At least then I wouldn't have to deal with an ASSHOLE all my life, the way he stalks me.
Suddenly I found myself on the street outside...what the hell? How did I get here?
It was raining and it was the middle of the night...I could tell. All the lights were off in the neighborhood. I was wearing a big white shirt...what a nice way to dress when IT'S RAINING. You could totally see through it at my underwear. God, I hated wearing white shirts for this reason.
I looked around...no cars, no lights...no sound. Really creepy if you ask me. I could still see the neighborhood though. The only sound was the rain pouring down. A thick fog rolled around me.
I shivered out of coldness. All of the sudden, a single sound emitted from behind me. It sounded like it was far away...hmm. I turned around, and there stood a tall man with a leather jacket on. He was pale, but I couldn't see his face. Just his...fangs?
He started walking towards me. No...he was gonna kill me. Something was telling me that. No...I was gonna live, damn it. A black bird flew by my face and into the opposite direction where the man was. Was that...the annoying crow from earlier? WHAT was going on!
I ran, in the direction the man wasn't, down the street. My house was just down the street. God, I hated Greene Street...it was SO long. It seemed endless.
Then the man sped up...he ran behind me, as if he had some sort of inhumane speed.
He then grabbed my arm. I screamed, "NOO!" and jerked it out of his hand. I ran and ran until I slipped in the middle of the street on the ground. FUCK! I was dead, no going back now. This guy had amazing speed and if I had one little trip like that, I was dead. I don't wanna die, dammit. I started crying.
The man sped up, and stood beside my body on the ground. I was on my knees, my hands on the ground, crying. "Please don't do this," I sobbed. "Please. Just LEAVE ME ALONE!" I screamed out.
He sat beside me and grabbed my head. He pulled me towards him, so I was sitting on the ground in front of him. He pulled my head back as if he was going to examine my neck or something.
"NOO!" I screamed. I elbowed him in the gut really hard and got up. My vision was blurry from crying.
"SOMEBODY HELP ME!" I screamed, running through the streets.
The mysterious man sped up, and stood in front of me. There was one last thing I saw, before he grabbed me and killed me.
That smirk. It seemed so familiar.
He then pushed my head to the side, and I felt two little knives plunge into my neck. I screamed out in pain, and fell to the ground. He held my body in his arms, his teeth sinking into my neck once more.
I jerked up, and screamed. "AHHH!" I yelped, before realizing...
It was all a dream. I sat up in my bed, and it was morning. I sighed in relief, holding my head...phew.
There's only one thing that describes the man in my dream...vampire.
"So a vampire killed you?" Bonnie asked, unsure.
I nodded. "He was so...fast. The only thing I caught was...that smirk. It's been haunting me all day. I feel like it's so familiar."
"Maybe it was someone you know..." Elena said, in thought.
I shrugged. "Maybe. All I know is, i'm going over to the Salvatore's later. Stefan came over yesterday and invited me...he said he wanted to talk."
Elena went silent, and looked at the ground. Bonnie looked up at me.
"Look whatever you do,...be careful." She was worried.
I snorted. "Bonnie. What's the worst they're gonna do They won't bite. I know Damon too well, he wouldn't hurt me or anything."
She sighed. "I know that you know Damon...but you don't know Damon. Just be careful."
I nodded, then something popped up in my head. Oh, yeah. I almost forgot. "Stefan said you could come."
She grinned in response. "Okay, just to make sure you are careful."
We both walked out of the house and got into my car.
I drove off to the brother's house, and I knocked on the door.
"Play nice, Bonnie." I whispered.
She laughed.
Damon opened the door and leaned against it, Stefan beside him.
"Hello ladies." Damon smirked.
I looked at his smirk...no. No no no no no. It was him...it was that damn Salvatore!
I elbowed Bonnie. "It's him...oh my god Bonnie it's him." I whispered, totally forgetting that Stefan and Damon could hear me.
Bonnie looked at Damon in shock. "Him?" she whispered back.
"What ever are you talking about?" Damon asked with a smug grin.
That bastard...he knew. He did this to me. He purposely tried to scare me!
"Y-you ASSHOLE!" I yelled, and tackled Damon. We flew past Stefan, and broke some glass on the way to the floor. Damn, how the hell did we land all the way back here?
I sat on his hips, while he was laying on the ground. I kept hitting him in the chest. "I can't believe you, Salvatore! You will pay!"
He grabbed my hands, to stop me from hitting him and grinned. He was smug with himself...that dick. All I wanted to do was slap that smirk off of his face. And that's exactly what I did. When I pulled my hand away, I saw that I left a red mark on his face.
He turned his head to face me again, and he growled. Yes, growled. His eyes turned red and veins popped out of the botttom of his eyes. He lifted his upperlip a bit, still snarling at me and showed me his white fangs.
I froze in place. Was this really happening? He was actually a vampire? Then again...he did make me have that dream. Oh my god...he was.
I gasped in shock, and stared at him. Stefan quickly came over and lifted me off of Damon. Damon stood up, and when I looked at him again, he was back to normal. He had a small smirk on his face.
"That position was fun...we should do that again sometime. Next time, i'm on top." Damon's eyes lit up with amusement.
I stood there frozen, in horror. Not because of what he said, but because of what I just saw. "You made me dream that horrible nightmare. You were that-...that beast!"
He snorted. "I have no idea what you're talking about."
I sighed. There was no getting through to him. "You're a vampire!"
That's when Damon's face went frozen, and he looked at me with a look that said, 'How did you know?'
I gasped. "Y-you are..."
Stefan held me closer. "We shouldn't talk about this right now."
Bonnie looked at me, as to say, 'Wow, that was weird.'
I nodded.
"Would you like a drink?" Damon asked, now appearing behind the bar.
I sighed. "I'm not looking to get drunk, thank you."
"Oh come on, Amber." Bonnie said, taking a drink from Damon.
I rolled my eyes and sighed playfully. "Fine. But only for you, BonBon."
Damon smirked in satisfaction.
Oh no, this wasn't going to be good.
