The Woods

Jake's POV

It was getting dark out as I went into the woods. I tried yelling to her but all I got back was silence. My phone started vibrating; I pulled it out of my pocket and saw that I got a text message from Erica. Which read: I'm in the woods, hiding in a hollowed out log covered by moss, come get me, I don't want them to find me. I replied who's them? a second or two later I get a reply that said vampire's. I found a log and looked in it. A dead end I thought to myself, she said a hollowed out log with moss. 45 minutes later I'm still looking, when I hear my name called. I turn in the direction and see Erica climbing out the log, I help Erica out. We start making our way back to her car when we hear footsteps behind us. I turn around and see a whole group of vampire's. I start running but feel something sharp hit my neck. Juice from it started running down my neck, I pull it out and see that it's a tranquilizer dart. My vision started getting blurry, Erica I called out before losing consciousness.

Erica's POV

I stop and see Jake laying on the ground and the vampires are circling around him. My instinct told me to help him but I kept running. It was a stupid move. I hid in a slide and 20 minutes later I see them dragging Jake into the back of a car. It was now or never, I ran out to them blinding them all with my vampire abilities, grabbed Jake put him in my car and drove off as fast as I could. A few minutes later still no sign of them, I look in the passenger seat and see Jake all bloody, covered in dirt, and his clothes are ripped a little bit. In a way he looked kind of cute. Cute I thought in my head, no he isn't. I pulled into my driveway. After searching his pockets for a minute I found his phone and texted his parents saying that he would be staying at Ethan's tonight. I put it back in his pocket just as he was waking up. Hey there sleepy head I said to him. He opened his bloodshot eyes and looked at me.

Jake's POV

I saw Erica looking at me. What happened I asked her, well when we were running they shot you with a tranquilizer and you blacked out so I waited until I saw them dragging you then I made my move and got you out of there. Thanks I said looking at her, so why did you come back she asked me, I came back because I realized I forgot to let you get some of my blood so if you want it now you can have it, I'll take it when you're sleeping. I climbed out of the car and walked up to her front door waiting for her. She got to it in less than a second and opened it. When we went in I went straight for the couch, where do you think you're going she shouted, uh on the couch, no you're staying in my room where I can watch you. Alright whatever I'm tired. I fell on her bed practically falling asleep before I got under the sheets. I fell right asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. It was that sleep where your sleeping but you are still aware of what's around you and you can still feel your body. My neck felt like it was on fire but at this point I didn't care.

After a few minutes of the pain I felt something different, something soft pressed against my face which lasted for one or two seconds, then I realized what it was, Erica just kissed me. When I woke up she was beside me, so I climbed out of the bed as quietly as I could, put my shoes on and texted Ethan saying that last night was totally weird. As usual he replied in an instant asking what happened I told him about Erica and the kiss. I swear I heard him scream when I texted him that. He replied back asking how that happened, which I said I don't know. He then called me and said that he and Benny were going to have a pizza game night and asked if I wanted to join, I replied saying maybe. When I got home I took a shower and ate a bowl of cereal. While I was eating I got a text from Erica which read: hey do you want to hang out with me today? I replied back with: can't today made plans with Ethan and Benny, tomorrow sound good? She replied with this :( . When I finished eating I called Benny and said to meet at Ethan's. When I got there they were in his room talking about what I told them about me and Erica. So how was it Benny asked as I walked into the room. How was what I said to him, the kiss he replied how was it? I don't know I mean it was soft. So you guys ready to pwn noobs in Call Of Duty, they both nodded. A few hours later Ethan's mom yelled from down stairs saying that he had a visitor. Ethan yelled back okay. A minute later a knock came on Ethan's door. Me and Benny were playing Hardcore Team Deathmatch, while Ethan was at the door me and Benny guarded him. When Ethan opened the door it was the pizza delivery guy, Ethan paid for the pizza and brought it in and set it on the floor along with a 2 liter bottle of Coke. Me and Benny finished the game and exited back to the lobby. Let's eat Ethan said.

2 hours later I'm lying on the couch in Ethan's room while Benny is laying on a blanket on the floor and last but not least Ethan is sleeping in his bed. Benny tapped me on the shoulder and said that he was going to sleep. I opened up Ethan's window which had no screen because it was hot in his room. My phone vibrated and I saw that Erica had texted me asking me what I was doing. I didn't reply and tried to get some sleep. I woke up at 3am and started walking to Erica's house. When I got to her house her front door was locked so I climbed on the railing to the porch and pulled myself up on the roof and tapped on her window. It was really cold this morning for the summer it shouldn't be this cold. I heard somebody whistle and saw one of the vampires from a couple days ago walking towards the house. I looked back in through the window and saw Erica just getting out of bed, I started knocking on the window.

Just as she opened it the vampire came up and started pulling my legs. I grabbed onto the window seal but lost grip. The vampire was trying to fly away when he lost grip of me and flew away. I was left falling out of the sky. I saw were I was going to land it wasn't going to be pretty. I fell through Erica's car windshield with a loud smash and what sounded like bones breaking. The last thing I remember before falling into blackness was hearing Erica scream.
