The Sisters
Chapter 7:
I awoke to a loud bang coming from Elena's room. I pulled the blankets off and jumped out of bed, I knocked on the conjoining door that linked my room to hers and heard footsteps walkimg to the door. It opened seconds later and Elena appeared looking sheepish. "Sorry, Stefan came over to talk," she said , soumding embarassed.
I smirked at her. "Just to talk?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.
She laughed. "Goodnight Bella." She closed the door.
I sat on my windowsill, looking out at the front lawn. A crow sat on a nearby branch in the darkness, looking into my room. Beneath the tree a figure appeared in a black leather jacket and dark jeans. I watched the figure walk into the light from the porch, it was Damon. I froze in shock. Slowly I stood and nearly ran down the stairs and threw open the door. He stood smiling at the door.
"Hi," I said, smiling.
"Hi," he said sheepishly. "I just wanted to see if you were okay."
"Ask me tomorrow so when we're inside we can talk," I replied. "Would you like to come in?"
He looked relieved. "Yes."
I held the door open so he could come inside and he walked through the threshold almost gliding in. I ascended the stairs, him following me, heading towards my room. Once inside I shut the door and sat on the windowsill, he sat beside me.
"Why did you come?" I asked.
He smiled. "I wanted to see you," he said. His arm holding my wrist. He bent down, his head tilted towards mine and his lips brushed over mine, velvety and soft.
I kissed him back. His arm found it's way around my waist. He pulled back, I felt breathless.
He looked at me. "Don't scream," he said, mesmirisingly.
"I won't scream," I could barely hear what I said.
His face changed. The veins came out in his face, his teeth enlargened. I don't know why I couldn't scream because the image absolutely terrified me. "Why can't I scream?" I asked.
He smiled. "Because I told you not to."
Then all of a sudden he was at my neck and there was a sharp pain. Then it faded and a blissfulness peace took over. It only lasted a few seconds but when it was over I could think straight again. What just happened? He couldn't be a vampire. I knew what vampires were and he wasn't at all like The Cullen's. "What are you?" I asked.
He smirked. "I'm a vampire," he mused.
"I'm a vampire Bella," he said. Then he laughed sarcastically. "You're forgetting the most important question: what do we eat."
I stood strong. "I'm not afraid of you," I said strongly.
"You should be, I'm the wold's dangerous predator. As if you could outrun me!" In a blur he was across the field laughing. "As if you could fight my life!:" He grabbed the root of a large oak tree and pulled, the tree came out whole, he laughed and threw it from one hand to the other like it was a baseball and threw it passed my head. It made a loud crunch sound as it hit another tree and split in half. In a blur he was in front of me. "Everything about you invites me in. My face, my smell, even my voice!"
At that moment I was terrified, but I wouldn't tell him. I swallowed back the ball in my throat. I shook my head. "I don't care," I replied.
We were in the forest out the back of Charlie's house. "We're leaving Bella," he said.
"I'll go home and pack my things, and tell Charlie... something," I said.
But the look on his face said everything. "No. Just my family and me," he said.
I was walking, it was dark and I got lost but I had to find him. I fell over a tree root and landed in the dirt. I was shivering from the rain and didn't have the strength to get up and keep walking so I lied there until I was too exhausted and fell to sleep.
I had tears running down my face and banged against his chest and shook my head. "No, no, no, no!" I said over and over again.
Damon grabbed my wrists in one hand and my face in the other and forced my eyes to look up at him. I was about to say something but when my eyes locked with his blue eyes I forgot and all there was was him and his eyes. "You won't remember anything from tonight. All you'll remember is I came over, we talked and it was nice, and we kissed, we said goodnight and I went home and you went downstairs, got something to drink and went to bed," he said, his voice was silky and caressed my skin.
"We talked, it was nice, then kissed, said goodnight and you went home and I got a drink and went to sleep," I said dazedly.
Suddenly Damon was gone and I was left alone on my bed. I wiped tear away from my eyes, unsure about how they got there, walked down stairs and poured myself a glass of water, took a sip, emptied the cup and went to bed.
Hey sorry, I decided to change the chapter a little. I like this version better and I hope you do too! :) Thanks and let me know what you think about it.
