Chapter 2
As Ana began to come into consciences she realized she wasn't at home anymore. She was lying on a couch in what appeared to be a small, old house, where at, she was not certain. The place was dark and light by a few dim lights. She stood up for a second but then a ghastly pain went through her body sending her back onto the couch.
That's when Cayden entered the room carrying a wet rag in his hand. She looked at him in fright for she didn't know what was going on. He noticed the look of fright on her face. " Ana, it's okay. I promise I won't hurt you" he said reassuring her. For some reason that was all she needed to hear, she trusted him since he was one of her good friends.
Cayden gently wiped the cut on her cheek with the wet rag. Ana flinched in pain. "Sorry, I know it hurts but we got to clean it up so it doesn't get infected." He said to her.
" I know." She answered as she closed her eyes slightly, she felt so weak.
" Anywhere else that asshole hurt you?" he asked.
" Well, he did slam into my stomach." She answered.
He slowly lifted up her shirt half way revealing a big bruise across her stomach. " I swear I'm going to kill him for this" Cayden muttered to himself.
"Thanks for saving me from that monster." She said, then realizing that he too was also a vampire. " Umm... but not that you're a monster, oh you know what I mean" she said getting frustrated with herself.
Cayden smiled slightly, " It's okay. I should be thanking you, you're the one that saved my butt when he was choking me." He answered starring into her radiant green eyes. " No, I can't keep letting myself fall more in love with her. It will just put her in more danger." He scolded himself.
" I suppose you have some questions for me, don't you?" he asked her while taking a seat next to her on the couch.
" Yes, quite a few. But hmm.where do I start." She said.
" Well, I better go get some food and soda then cause where going to be here a while." He said as a joke.
She laughed at his sense of humor. "Ouch" she said as the laughing had caused her more pain in the stomach. "He's always had a good sense of humor. Oh no, why do I keep falling for him! I cant, he's a vampire." She thought to herself.
" Are you okay?" he asked her.
"Yea, I'm fine" she lied to him.
" So have you always been a vampire?" she asked him.
" No, I was just transformed into one about a year ago by David, the one who tried to bite you. He wanted me to be his partner in crime but after I turned I refused, unlike him I still had some good in me. And now we're worst enemies. He screwed up my life. That's why I dropped out of school, because I can't be out in daylight. And it seems as though he'll do anything to hurt me. Even hurt the one's I love." He exclaimed.
"Oh no, did I just say love." He thought to himself.
" He love's me?" Ana wondered.
"But how'd he know about me?" she asked inquisitively.
" He spies on me some times. And I guess he must have seen us hanging out enough to figure out that we're good friends" he answered.
" Why didn't you tell me you were a.. vampire?" she struggled saying the word. It all seemed so weird.
" Because I didn't want to risk our friendship. I figured if you found out you wouldn't be my friend anymore. I don't blame you if you don't want to be my friend right now. I don't know how you can even stand being here with me!" He said. Her eyes met his, they were dark and cold but somehow she managed to find warmth in them. " No, I would be your friend no matter what! It doesn't matter to me. Your still the same old funny, caring Cayden I've always known." She said to him.
" Really?" he asked as a smile began to form on his face.
"Really" she answered.
Then before either one of them knew it they were kissing. Suddenly Cayden jerked away from Ana.
" No, I can't. I'm sorry." He said looking down at his feet.
" But why?" she said with a hint of hurt in her voice.
"Because I don't love you that way." he lied to her
"Oh." was all she could say.
"Where's the restroom?" she asked.
He pointed down a hallway.
She slumped down onto the bathroom floor and buried her hands in her face crying. At the same time Cayden sat there feeling worse than ever.
"Damn why do I have to be a vampire! Why does it have to be this way? I do love her, with all my heart. I would die for her!" he muttered to himself.
Somehow she fell asleep in the bathroom crying. After awhile Cayden went to check on her. He found her slumped against the wall sleeping. He picked her up and carried her to his bedroom and gently set her down on his bed. He covered her up and then gave her a kiss on the cheek. " Oh how much I want her" he said to himself as he looked at her one final time before closing the door. The one thing he didn't tell her is that he did kill humans for food. That was the only way for his survival. Weather he liked it or not, he had to and he felt like crap for doing it.
