Crimson Night and Dark Light
Chapter 5 - Cold
The still half
asleep girl nuzzled into her pillow as she slowly awoken. Her lids
fluttered open and the light abused her sensitive eyes the way it had
the day before. She was starting to realize something was wrong with
her. Again, she couldn't remember what had happened the night
before.
I
We kiss The stars
We writhe We are

Buffy
sat up and looked around the room. At least, she was where she was
supposed to be. She ran her fingers through her hair, trying to get
some of the tangles out. She threw her comforter to the ground and
stood up. She was wearing short black briefs and a black tank top.
She slowly made her way to her mirror to look at herself.
I
Your
name
Desire
Your flesh
We are
/i
She
had mascara smeared under her eyes; it looked as if she had came in
late last night and hadn't bother to clean herself up.
Why was it
she kept forgetting what she had done the night before? Maybe she was
just having a few bad days.
I Cold we're so cold
We are
so cold
we're so cold
/i
Buffy
slowly made her way to her closet and pushed open the white sliding
doors. She quickly scanned her clothes and picked a pair of low
riders and a purple, peasant shirt. She shed her clothes and changed,
hoping that her lack of memory wouldn't affect her day. What if she
had blown up the school last night or slept with some random guy that
would spread rumors about her the moment she arrived at
school?
I
Your mouth
These words
Silence
/i
She
just hoped her crappy reputation was still in place.
She took her
red brush and pulled her hair up into a high pony tail. Realizing it
exposed the bite mark on her neck, she took her foundation and spent
the next five minutes trying to conceal it the best she
could.
When Buffy arrived at school, the air around her
felt thick and she didn't feel like this was where she was supposed
to me. She felt like something was pulling her to somewhere other
than the high school she knew so well. She ignored the feeling and
made her way to her English class.
I
It turns
On
me
We laugh
/i
The
moment she walked through the door, she spotted Willow. She made her
way over and sat down with a smile.
The teacher droned on
about direct and indirect objects and Buffy just randomly doodled in
her notebook. Suddenly, she was hit by a memory. Just a short flash,
but enough to make her gasp.
I
My head
Falls back
/i
I
It
was the night before and darkness had taken over the earth. Buffy was
dressed in a very short leather skirt and a see through black shirt.
She slowly climbed out her window. Buffy saw herself stalking the
town in a way she had never acted before. She was swaying her hips in
a very seductive manner, acting like some kind of... mistress of the
dark from the movies she watched. That was the only way she could
describe it. Suddenly, a man walked out of the shadow and came to
her, his eyes roaming over her body. Anyone could tell that he had
one thing and one thing only on his mind.
Cold we're so cold
We are so cold
we're so cold
Before the
man could utter a word, Buffy grabbed him roughly to her and smiled.
Thinking she was just playing rough, he returned the smile. She
suddenly vamped out, bumpy forehead and small fangs showing in her
mouth. She pulled the man's neck to one side and sank her fangs into
the delicious, warm flesh.
/i
Buffy snapped
out of the flashback with a gasp. She fell out of her chair and the
entire class turned their attention to her.
She then heard someone
say aloud:
I
Cold we're so cold
We are so cold
we're so cold
/I
"What's
wrong with her neck?"
Buffy's eyes
widened as her hand went to the side of her neck. She could feel
sticky wetness beneath her fingers. She pulled her hand back only to
see her finger tips stained bright red. She grabbed a small mirror
out of her purse to look at her neck. The red blood was seeping
through the thick foundation, making itself visible on her pale skin.
She quickly covered her neck before running out of the
classroom.
I
Cold we're so cold
We are so cold
we're so cold
/i
She
made her way home and cleaned herself up. Buffy didn't know what was
happening to her, and she didn't want to know.
I
Cold
we're so cold
We are so cold
we're so cold
/i
They
say ignorance is sweeter than the truth and Buffy agreed.
