I closed my suitcase and sat down beside it on my bed. I looked around the room a final time before my eyes fell on the vanity and my face. It was pretty hard to explain to my aunt and uncle how I managed to split my lip and end up with a concussion. The only thing my aunt would stare at were the stitches that made their way across the end of my hairline. At least I hadn't broken anything and I told them that there was a small fight that I ended up getting into to protect a friend. Who was the friend in question? That's what they had asked and that was where Beth came in. Protecting vampire's is hard work. I actually had to ask Beth how she could handle that kind of secret.
"You take it one day at a time, like everything else," she had told me. I really took this insight to heart. It made sense now.
I picked up my suitcase and a bag that was by my door on the way out. I hugged my aunt and uncle good bye and they got all teary-eyed on me of course. I told them I would miss them and that I would call when I could and I would call and let them know I got there alright. They just nodded.
Soon, I got in a cab and headed to the airport.

It was a surprise, granted a very nice one, that Josef, Mick, and Beth just happened to meet me there. Beth knew that I was going away for college but I didn't actually think she would tell them. Still, it was so nice to see them all before I left, before I got away from it all. Finally.
"I'm gonna miss you," she whispered in my ear as she hugged me. "You're the only other girl that knows this about them." I just smiled.
"I'm gonna miss you too," I told her as I pulled away. "You have my number to get in touch if you ever need to talk." She smiled at me.
"I should be saying that to you," she told me. I just giggled at her. Mick came up next for a hug and I giggled even harder at the look Beth had given him. It was a bit of bewilderment mixed with a smile. It was such a funny look.
"Take care," he told me when he pulled away. Last, but more than definatly not least was Josef. His embrace was the longest and over his shoulder, I watched Beth pull Mick away, giving me a small smile of encouragement. Even though I hadn't noticed it over the past few days because I was in fear of my life, I found Josef kind of hot. Which kind of seemed ridiculous because he was how old? I certainly didn't know. He soon pulled away and looked at me. His eyes went quickly to the stitches.
"I'll be fine," I muttered. He just snorted.
"If it weren't for me, you would be less than fine," he said. I just rolled my eyes.
"Well, aren't you sure of yourself," I said. "Need I remind you who ended Scott's little reign of terror?" Now he just rolled his eyes. "You were the one lying on a ground with a stake in your chest."
"Against my will," he said. We both chuckled at the memory, even if I had been terrified at the time. It had made me stronger. Before I knew it, Josef pulled me back into another embrace.
"I'll be in touch," I said to him. "It's not like this is a perminent good bye."
"Sorry," he said, pulling away. I saw something flash in his eyes. Was it sadness? Was it a caring sincere feeling he could only have for someone he had saved? I don't know. But I did know he had managed to be holding my hand without me noticing until now. I looked down at my hand in his and then and there part of me didn't want to go.
"Final boarding call for State College, Pennsylvania."
I slowly pulled my hand out of his, said my final good bye and walked away. This was it. This was good bye.
Or was it?
