I had been up in my room for about an hour just staring at the wall.
All I could think about is that little girl, and Alec. There is no doubt in my mind they had drained her; maybe just for me they took pity on her and did it quick.
After I had changed into my pajamas a knock was heard at my door.
"Come in," I said barley above a whisper; volume wasn't a need in the company of vampires.
Sulpicia came in balancing two trays of food.
"I wasn't sure what kind of food you liked to eat, tomorrow someone will bring you to the food store," She spoke as she sat the trays down on the bed in front of me.
She seemed timid as she stepped back from my bed, like she wasn't quite sure if she should leave or sit down.
"You can set down with me," I told her with a small smile. She dragged the chair in the corner closer to the bed.
I had so many questions to ask her, but I couldn't get over what I'd seen just hours ago.
Clearly she took my silence as her chance to speak
"I know you have no reason to trust me Khloe, but I'm not going to let anything happen to you,"
I simply opened the can of Coke on the tray not knowing how to respond to her statement, was she being truthful?
She took my silence as a sign to continue,
"I see so much of my daughter in you, your strength downstairs with Jane and your determination with Aro,"
This caused my eyebrow to rise,
"You have a daughter?" I asked picking around the plate in front of me, she didn't look like she was much older than me when she was changed.
"I had a daughter, she died of sickness when she was five," I reached out towards her hand with my own before I thought better of it.
"Aro changed me right before I died of the disease myself,"
After that I finished reaching out to her, her cold hand wrapped around mine.
While I ate we sat in silence until she began speaking again.
"I better let you get some rest, you have tutoring tomorrow and food shopping, just put your tray out in the hall when you're done eating and someone will get it,"
She stood up putting my chair back in its original spot.
"Thank you, will I see you tomorrow?" I asked the hope could clearly be heard in my voice.
"Yes of course," and she bent over and did the second most shocking thing that happened today, after her wink earlier, she pressed her lips to my forehead before moving towards the door.
Quickly she turned before making her way completely out of the door.
"He didn't kill her,"
"What?" I asked confusion was clearly all over my face.
"Alec, he wasn't the one to kill the little girl,"
And with that she left.
As I slipped into sleep that night my mind only thought of Alec.
Its short I know, but Necessary to show the relationships forming between her and the volturi members!
