Hey, soz I didn't update yesterday :( but will try and make up for it by updating twice tomoz (maybe) x anyway, you know how I didn'y know whether Monica should be friend or foe? I got two replies, one saying friend, one saying foe, so sorry Clairebear97 but im going with friend x enjoy...

Claire's POV

no, no no! Why did she have to come now? Just as everything was fitting into place! Monica had finally ditched those murderers she used to call friends, and Alyssa is alive! Shane has been acting like he's on some sort of happy drug all week! He can't stop staring at her and grinning like a madman! It's actually quite funny! I think I'm going to have to video him and show him in a few years!

Damn! I'm going off track! There is someone in front of me planning my murder!

"Do you want to know who hired me?" Jennifer teased, walking toward me and causing me to back up until I was against the wall. "Do you?"

"What do you think bitch?" I retorted. "Of course I do." She pressed the knife against my neck, causing a trickle of blood to run down to my shoulder and stain my pyjama top.

"You better watch your language," she threatened, whilst grabbing a handful of my hair and pulling. I bit back a scream, not wanting to wake anyone up. "Ooh, you've toughened up!" She mocked. "Let's see if you can live through this."

And then she stabbed me.

Michael's POV

Something woke me up in the middle of the night. I don't know what, but it was two in the morning and I was awake...weird. Suddenly I caught a smell in the air...blood.

I rushed downstairs as fast as I could to find Claire unconscious, lying in a pool of her own blood. I felt my vampire instincts kick in as soon as I saw her like that, it would be so easy to just bend over and drink from her – no one would know it was me... No! What am I thinking? Oh god, I can't be around her much longer or I'll snap!

I ran upstairs and woke up Shane. Not an easy task. First, I shook him but he didn't respond. I said his name repeatedly, but still nothing. I sighed. "Shane, it's Claire." He was awake in seconds. Kinda sweet really.

"What's happened to Claire?" He asked, already dreading the answer. I could see it in his eyes.

"She was stabbed," I said, watching as his eyes instantly welled up with tears. "I can't be around her or I'll...you know.." I trailed off. He nodded, causing the tears to spill and drop sadly onto his pillow. Without being asked, he walked downstairs to get Claire whilst I woke up everyone else.

Shane's POV

I walked downstairs as if I were in a trance. Why Claire? Why my beautiful Claire? She's never so much as swatted a fly and here she is, lying in a pool of her own blood. Why do the bad guys never get hurt? Why is it never me instead of Claire? I've done far worse things than her, but she had to be the one who got stabbed didn't she? A sob escaped my throat.

I suddenly realised that I should call an ambulance. I picked up the phone but it just fell from my numb fingers. I reched down absently and picked it up and manged to call 999 this time. The ambulance was here quickkly but I didn't take any notice of what was happening around me. All I saw was Claire and the blood coming in a continuous river from her stomach.

It was then that I saw then note.

Don't think it's over.

Hey! Sorry it's so short but I thought that would be a good place to end it! Btw, thanks for the idea of Jen leaving a note Clairebear97! Anyway, will try and update two times tomoz to make up for yesterday. xxx
