Carolyn

Thank you for the reviews!

Chapter Six

Andy stared into Carolyn's eyes; he was shocked with himself for thinking that he should kiss Carolyn. She was fragile at the moment and he had practically taken advantage of her. He tried to choke up an apology but it never came.

"Andy?" Carolyn said warily. She put her hand on his shoulder and shook slightly. She needed him to return to her normal loving Andy but right now he was just staring at the floor. "Andy?" She repeated. He snapped into reality but the shocked look was still on his face.

"I'm so sorry" Andy managed to choke out. He reached up to where Carolyn's hand lay on his shoulder and moved it so it was resting on the sofa. It hurt Carolyn when she realised that he didn't even want her touching him at all.

"Don't be" She whispered. Andy's shocked look grew to new levels. He looked even closer into her eyes, just trying to read her.

"Why shouldn't I be sorry?" He asked. A tear looked as though it was trying to battle its way out but Andy managed to contain it but it wasn't easy.

"Because I wanted it to happen" Carolyn whispered. Andy grabbed her hand and made her look at him. He was frantic and getting angry but mostly he was feeling incredibly depressed.

"No you don't. I can't control myself around you. At least Jake can you're better off with him" Andy shouted. It was the truth as well. Jake could control himself around anything but Andy couldn't yet. He didn't want to hurt Carolyn ever but sometimes he probably couldn't handle her whereas Jake could and he knew he had an interest in her.

"Don't you ever say that again" Carolyn shouted back. She had tears falling down her cheeks. Andy hated it whenever she cried but this time it was for her own good.

"Please understand what I'm trying to say. You and Jake kissed and soon he'll be trying to steal more kisses until finally you kiss back. I knew this was going to happen and he really likes you" Andy explained. Carolyn firmly shook her head.

"I can't stay away from you Andy" She wept. She put her hand around his neck and pleaded with her eyes.

"Then I'll have to go" Andy said. He let one tear roll down his cheek.

"No Andy please don't" Carolyn begged. She clung onto his jacket and tried to pull him back to the sofa but her attempts were useless. He managed to get away from her but returned to kiss her forehead lightly. She didn't try to grab him again but she did look up at him and beg with her eyes one last time but it was useless. He went over to the door and stood there. He gave one last painful glance at Carolyn.

"Don't follow me Carolyn" He said. She ran after him though and clung onto his hand. She couldn't let him go now. She needed him and she wasn't prepared to give up on him that easily.

"Give me one more chance. If you're not here I don't think life is worth living" Carolyn cried. She would probably end up harming herself if Andy left her. Andy gave her another pained look. He couldn't leave now, not after she had said that. It would be like giving a suicidal person a gun full of bullets.

"Ok but I'll be distant again" Andy managed to say. Another tear swept down Carolyn's cheek but she nodded anyway. Andy walked away and back upstairs. Carolyn sat down and took a deep breath. She had managed to stop him from leaving that time but how many times could she keep him here? Her guess was that after a few attempts he just wouldn't care about her suicidal threats and just pack up and leave. She had been too caught up with stopping Andy that she hadn't noticed Jake standing in the doorway. He gave her a sympathetic smile and that was when she really broke down. She ran over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. He put his hands on the small of her back and hugged her close to him.

"I'm sorry" He whispered in her ear. She clung onto him for dear life. She was scared in case someone else was just snatched away from her. She didn't know why Andy was freaking out over kissing her so much. She had thought that he had wanted to do it but it must have just been spur of the moment. She wept into Jake as he sent comforting words into her ear but she was past listening now. Her mind was consumed in thoughts of Andy. She was terrified of Andy threatening to leave again. He thought it was for her own good but he had no idea what was for her own good. A life without Andy is a life not worth living. If she didn't have Andy then she didn't want to live full stop. Fair enough she had freaked out about him being a vampire but that was nothing compared to not having him there at all. She needed to tell him all of this but the problem was trying to get him to listen. If she got to close to him again then he would surely leave or at least try to again.

"Jake, I don't know what to do" She wept. Jake rubbed her back in a comforting way and sighed.

"I wish I could help. I'll always be here for you" He said. Carolyn nodded and hugged tighter. She was so shake up by the actions that had just taken place.

"Promise me you'll never leave me" Carolyn sniffled.

"I promise I will never leave you. Now come and tell me what happened" Jake said. Carolyn thought about this for a moment and then nodded at Jake. They went over to the sofa and sat down. The sofa where Andy and Carolyn kissed. Already it held so many bad memories. They sat down and Carolyn began with the story.

"We were just sitting talking and then we kissed. He freaked out and tried to leave for good but I managed to convince him not to and then you must have walked in when Andy said he was going to be distant" She cried. Jake looked hurt but he still hugged her again. Carolyn broke down again and couldn't stop the tears. She tried and tried but they just kept coming harder.

"It's ok Carolyn. I'm here for you in every way possible" Jake sighed. Carolyn looked up and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

"Thank you. I need you" Carolyn whispered before closing her eyes and drifting off to sleep. Jake stayed near her. He looked around the room to try and find something that he could do while she was asleep but when he turned his head he saw Andy at the foot of the stairs staring at Carolyn with an upset look on his face.

"Andy, you need to be friends with her" Jake said. Andy walked into the living room and sat down beside Jake.

"I can't control myself" Andy whispered. Jake closed his eyes in a frustrated way and then made Andy face him.

"You have to realise that the only reason that you can't control yourself is because you don't believe that you can" Jake whispered furiously. Andy looked at him in a shocked manner.

"What are you talking about?" Andy asked.

"Make yourself think that you won't harm her and then tell me if you want to drink her blood" Jake commanded. Andy shut his eyes for a moment and then opened them again. His eyes rested on Carolyn as he sent the same thought through his mind over and over again. I will never harm Carolyn. He shut his eyes one more time and the next time he looked at her it was just like before he was turned into a vampire. He gasped out in shock when he saw what had happened. Carolyn's eyes began to flutter open and they rested on Andy. A small tear escaped her again and she was breaking down all over again.

"You both need to sort it all out now" Jake said before leaving the room so Andy and Carolyn were alone together.

"Andy, please don't leave" Carolyn whispered. Andy shuffled closer to her and was relieved when he still didn't want to drink her blood. He put a hand on her neck and sighed.

"I couldn't do it if I tried" Andy said. Carolyn smiled slightly but then she was taken into Andy's arms. "Forgive me for being an asshole"

"You're forgiven" Carolyn sighed. She clung onto him like she had with Jake and he kissed the top of her head.

"It's going to take some time for me to get used to being around you" Andy said. Carolyn looked up at him and another tear fell from her eye but she nodded reluctantly. He kissed her head one last time and lay back.

"Promise me that you will never freak out like that again" She whispered. Andy nodded and shut his eyes. "Promise me"

"I promise" Andy said. "Go back to sleep"

"Only if you stay here with me" Carolyn said. Andy looked down at her again and nodded.

"I will never leave your side" Andy said. She smiled up at him and shut her eyes and soon she was back in her own world.

I ran through the woods. I was searching for Andy but I couldn't find him anyway but finally I found him. He was staring at me and tears were flowing down his cheek freely.

"I'm sorry Carolyn" He whispered before walking out of the woods and into a white light. I tried to run after him but I couldn't find him anymore. I cried loudly for what seemed like years. I was on my knees and was hammering the grass with my fist repeatedly.

"Don't break your promise" I whispered finally and then I was thrown back to reality.

Carolyn woke up whilst gasping for breath. Andy was towering over her with a worried look on his face. He shook her once until she was back to normal and then pulled her onto his lap. He hugged her tightly and sent comforting words to her like Jake had when she was crying. He smoothed her hair down like he always did when she was upset. The bloodlust still wasn't there so he relaxed a little bit more and let all thoughts of helping Carolyn through whatever had freaked her out consume him.

"Andy, help me" She gasped. He practically died right then. Hearing her beg for help made him weak and he practically broke.

"What happened?" He asked. He forced her to look at him and stroked her cheek which stopped her from shaking.

"You broke your promise" She gasped. Andy was majorly shocked. If that was what was going to happen if he actually did break his promise then he would be terrified to do it. He hugged her again.

"I'm never going to break my promise but I have to hunt so Jake's going to take care of you" Andy said whilst Jake came into the room and smiled warmly at Carolyn.

"Goodbye Andy. Hurry back" Carolyn said. Andy nodded once and kissed her cheek. Jake picked Carolyn up bridal style and walked her to her room. When they arrived he lay her down on her bed and tucked her in. He kissed her head lightly and turned to leave bus she grabbed his hand and pulled him back.

"What is it?" Jake laughed.

"Goodnight" She whispered. Jake gave her a sympathetic look.

"I love you" He whispered and then left. She hadn't said anything back but she really didn't know how much he did actually love her. She was getting really screwed up and right now she needed support from everyone so instead of trying to get her to go out with him he was just going to be a friend for her. He wanted to help her to recovery and that was the only way that he knew how to. He went back downstairs and sat on the sofa. He let his head hang back and he shut his eyes and groaned loudly. He had never felt like this in a long time. Why was Carolyn getting to him so much?
