"no" I shouted dodging in front of the lions paw, to block the blow. The paw hit my arm and a claw caught my skin as I screamed. Arms wrapped around me, and lowered me to the bloodied ground.
"you stupid little girl I told you I would be fine" he said. "your going to die, because of me."
"I'm responsible for you, I have to protect you" I mumbled raising my hand a little to touch his beautiful sparkling face. He grabbed my hand in his cold grip, pressing it to his face. He looked over my with dark black eyes. His soft brown hair rustled in the African breeze.
"there's so much blood Alyssa, so much blood" he said. "your going to die" he said.
"let me die knowing I'll be right where I -" I couldn't finish. The blackness enveloped my good eye.
"no, no Alyssa come back to me, don't go" he shouted.
I shot up in bed breathing heavily. How long had it been since I had that dream? Years. I needed a drink. I swung my legs over the bed as the door opened. Paul stood there with a glass of milk and a plate of food.
"you look better" he said.
"what are you doing here?" I asked.
"your grandma said you broke into a cold sweat and wouldn't wake up, she had to run somewhere today with my mom so I ditched school to stay with you" he said.
"what time is it?" I asked.
"11" he said setting down my food on the side table. " you look really shooken up, is something wrong?" he asked.
"no, nothings wrong. It was just a dream" I said, without thought I touched my scar.
"you want to talk about it?" he asked.
"no" I said.
"you sure?" he asked. I threw him a glare. "alright, well I have a muffin and butter, and some milk" he said. I took the plate and bit into the muffin. "so who's Damien?" he asked.
I froze in mid chew. "how do you know that name?" I asked.
"you were mumbling it while you were out" he said.
"it's nothing, he's no one" my heart clenched as I said it, it was a bad lie.
"is he an ex-boyfriend or something?" he asked.
"I don't want to talk about it" I said.
"Sonar" he said.
'I'd think you would let out an super wave of sound or something, like a sonar' his voice rang in my ears.
"I'm tired just go away" I said setting the muffin down and getting back under the covers.
"son-" he started.
"GET OUT" I said louder more sternly. I heard him sigh and leave. I wish I hadn't woken up I wished I could finish my dream.
Paul POV
I sat by her bed while she slept soundly. I had put a washcloth on her forehead. "Damien, its ok Damien" sonar mumbled. Who was Damien? I began to shake. I got out of the house fast, stripped and phased. Maybe a run would be good. No one was out. Good. I didn't want to have my thoughts read today. Sonar would be hungry when she woke up, I'll take her a muffin from Emily's.
Sonar POV
How I wish I could see him again. Ryan. Ryan wasn't Damien, he would never be Damien. I walked to my back pack and grabbed my cell phone. I needed to talk to him to hear his voice. Speed dial number 1. It rang 3 times. "hello?" the familiar voice came.
"Damien" I breathed.
"Alyssa" he said. His breathing stopped for a minute and there was moment of silence, "why are you calling Alyssa, is there something wrong?" he asked.
"no, nothings wrong. I just needed to talk to you" I said into the phone.
"it was the dream again, wasn't it?" he asked.
"no, not that one" I said.
"which one then?" he asked.
"the day with the lion" I said.
"oh" he said, "Alyssa I promise we can be together once this is done. I left you with Ryan, is he causing you troubles?" he asked.
"no I joined an orphanage, I was adopted, I'm in forks Washington." I said.
"are you safe, Alyssa. You were safe in New York" he said.
"I was bored, I'm fine here" I said.
"you worry me" he said.
"I'm fine, really, I just didn't to make sure you were ok" I said.
"once this is over I promise I will take you away, and we can be together again" he said.
"alright Damien" I said.
"good bye Alyssa" he said.
"bye Damien" I said closing the phone. Leaning my head back on my pillow I closed my eyes and relaxed.
Paul POV
There was no way I was going to leave her alone for even a second. I leaned close to her door and listened. She shuffled around a bit and then I heard her talking to someone. "Damien" she breathed the name. the spoke it with such relief, such love it was heartbreaking. "no, nothings wrong. I just needed to talk you" she said softly. Her whole speech changed when she talked to this Damien. Her usual sarcastic hard exterior just seemed to melt away. "no, not that one" he said. Another pause, "the day with the lion" she spoke. Lion? What day with the lion, I thought she lived in New York. "no, I joined an orphanage, I was adopted. I'm in Forks Washington" she said. She sounded guilty. "I was bored, I'm fine" now she sounded more like the sonar I knew. "I'm fine, really, I just needed to make sure you were ok" she said. "alright Damien" she paused again, "bye Damien"
She was with someone. This Damien. I would, I would, get her to be with me. I know I will. She's my imprint.
A/N: sorry this took forever. I moved to Germany so I just got wifi today and I finished this on the plane. And I know exactly where I'm going with this story. So rate, comment, review. I also need a character. A vampire, it will be a couple chapters from now, maybe 5. If you have a suggestion for a character please give me their name, ability, and personality in a review. I will sort through them all and choose one. And then you have to deal with me and my endless questions. Lol.
