Hey guys! Thanks for making it this far, I just have one request...Review! I greatly appreciate your opinions :) I am thinking "Wolf telepathy" "I am a ghost talking" "I am a demon talking" Eric, Amy and the bad guys (Father and Derek) are my OC's. I Own Nothing of Twilight or Ghost Whisperer

Chapter 13

-Derek-

I smiled when Aiden followed me out into the woods. The kid was so innocent, so trusting, the perfect bait. I paused and leaned against a tree waiting for him to catch up. When he did he was panting and gave me a big smile and a wave.

"Derek! Where'd you go? I don't have anyone to color with me anymore." Aiden said as I walked up to him.

"Sorry kiddo. Amy didn't want to see me for awhile. We got into a fight." I said sweetly, nicely, as I remembered the night I asked her to change for me. How she ran away, and how I chased.

"Are you guys okay now?" He asked, his innocent dark brown eyes staring up at me.

"Oh yeah, kiddo. More than great. We're going to hang out today, the three of us." I crouched down to his eye level. "But we can't tell Melinda and Jim, we are skipping school after all."

Aiden frowned. "But I promised mommy I would tell her everything." I sighed and stood back up. "Then get back to class kiddo before you get in trouble and have to tell mommy."

"Hey! Don't you dare talk to my little brother like that." I turned as Amy crashed through the undergrowth. Alone. And here I was expecting a leech or two. Easier than I thought.

"Hmph, you're not even related."

"And you're getting on my nerves. What part of 'I never want to see you again' don't you understand?" She retorted, stepping between me and Aiden. I smiled.

"Yup, this is why I chose you, you know. You fighting back makes dominating you all the more fun." I flashed pearly white teeth as her face reddened in anger.

"Aiden" She said through clenched teeth as 3 or 4 leeches appeared behind her. "Go back to class."

"Come on sweety, you're teacher's probably wondering where you are." A short, spiky dark haired leech said, leading him back and safely away.

"Okay, I can't believe their fighting again though." Aiden said, still confused on what was going on. But I never kept my eyes off Amy, technically this wasn't leech territory from what I heard.

"I told you, you can't get rid of me." I said more seriously. The thought that she tried still irked me.

"Yeah, your like a wart on my life and I haven't found the 'freeze-away' yet."

"Come on, Amy. At least tell me the real reason why you left." She just stared at me while a tall, black haired leech shifted closer to her side.

"I did tell you. You didn't like the answer."

"Well maybe it wasn't a good enough reason." She laughed without humor as the dark haired vampire came back and stood next to the strawberry blonde one.

"Oh right, I forgot. I was just supposed to let you eat me on our first date to the woods that one full moon, right? And I forgave you thinking you just 'wolf out' during then and it wasn't your fault. Come the next full moon, what happened? Oh right, I was in the hospital for 3 months nearly shredded like pramesan cheese for one of Fazoli's spagetti platters." The dark haired vampire next to her looked ready to attack me at any moment but I ignored it. They seemed pretty close, let him make the first move and prove that I'm better.

"I was trying to change you but you kept fighting back." She glared at me and continued ranting.

"Funny, I don't remember agreeing to spend all eternity with you. Besides I'm allergic so that wouldn't be very smart." My turn to stare at her.

"You love me."

"Did. Past tense. You didn't just break my heart that night, Derek. You broke me. If you truly cared you wouldn't have kept making excuses, or pushing me around, telling me what to do, who to hang out with and how long. You controlled me." Her gaze softened and she looked down breaking eye contact. "In a way, I'm glad you did it. Hurt me, I mean. 'Cause now I know who you truly are." And then she turned around and walked away.

Just like that.

I was to shocked to even register anger, and I kept myself from feeling it knowing that if I phased now it would just prove that the dark haired vampire next to her was more in control. And without the full moon...it wouldn't just hurt, pain didn't even begin to cover phasing without the light of the moon. So I opted for more personal attacks.

"Speaking of which, I'm surprised your walking. How's the back?" I smiled wider as anger flashed over the vampires faces. She turned around and smiled, already by the other vampires who stood around protectively.

"How's the face?" She asked.

My smile disappeared as I could feel her slice the skin over my left eye with one of Melinda's antique silver knives. Not only was there along jagged scar, starting from my left eyebrow down to my chin, but small burn marks as well.

Still smiling she turned around and walked with the vampires away from view. I could distantly hear the swish of the undergrowth as they disappeared. I turned around with a smile of my own. Yes, she was definately worth it. Maybe to kill, no point in gifting her with eternity and making her my equal. If she could scar me as a human, what could she do as an immortal?

...And review!
