The rest of the day passed in icy silence. Some students talked little to her as she passed them. Worse, Leo seemed to be angry or if not why would he avoid her? These thoughts whirled inside her as she grew furious at her own concern. 'Why should I care?' she thought. He meant nothing to her and to him, her.

She popped in her ear buds and, with an aura of defeat; she trudged along the cafeteria line. She got her food and scanned her surroundings, wondering who would be insane enough to invite her. She heard her name being shouted. She removed her ear buds, which was playing a Beethoven classic, and looked around.

A scowl tried to break into her face; it was Kitty, trying to hail her like a cab. She was short but curvy, her auburn hair was tied in a bun and her black eyes glinted with gossip. She was one of Trish's loyal servants who, by the way, were standing behind her. She also noticed that Leo was beside Trish, sitting at their self-proclaimed table.

Kitty and the others went to her, grabbed her by the arm and steered her to their table. "What is it?" Eire snapped. "You are so asking for it you weirdo." Kitty replied with an evil smile. When they were near enough, Trish suddenly looked furious.

"This!" Trish turned to Leo "This is what you're replacing me for?" Leo glowered at her. Trish gasped and fell smack on her butt. Even Eire and the others froze in their places in fear. Trish stood shakily and ran away crying, with her servants at her heels.

"W-What was that about?" she tried to stay calm as she sat at the table which was empty except for Leo. "I told her the whole ugly truth." his warm smile caught her off-guard. His hand took hold of hers and he brought it to his lips and kissed it lightly. She was too numb to move even when he stood, kissed her cheek and whispered in her ear:

"You're finally mine."

She turned in her bed for the millionth time; his words still ringing in her ear. She looked at her alarm clock; it was already 11 pm. In an attempt to clear her mind, she went downstairs for a drink of water. She walked upstairs again and opened the door as she drank only to find Leo lounging on her pillows. She screamed in surprise but ended up coughing instead.

"H-How did you…get h-here?" she managed to get out. "Come here Eire." He patted the space beside him, ignoring her question. His eyes seemed to have a different color as he said this. She could feel herself drowning in them. She blinked and almost screamed again. She was now lying under him, his lips just inches from hers.

"L-Leo!" she pushed him away and tried to get off the bed but only managed to sit since Leo suddenly grabbed her "What are you doing?" "You don't have to struggle against me." He whispered in her neck. She felt hot; her heart felt like it was going to explode. He managed to push her down again without any resistance. Her body wouldn't follow her, she couldn't move an inch. It felt like something other than his arms was keeping her from doing anything.

He could feel it, feel the blood running in her. Gently, he lifted her chin and kissed the throbbing vein in her neck. She stiffened and her hands flew to his shoulders, roughly clutching his shirt. He let himself be pushed back so he could see her. She was blushing but she still looked beautiful; and very, very delicious. He started kissing her, his lips trailing swift kisses from her forehead to her jaw line. Before she could protest at his actions, his mouth crushed down to hers. Her soft lips were clamped shut at first but when they yielded he found himself caught in a confusing whirlwind of emotions.

A moan rose from her throat when she felt his tongue move against hers. After a few minutes, he managed to draw her tongue into his mouth and seductively began to suck it. When they broke apart both of them were breathing heavily. The moon suddenly reflected on his face and, for a split second, she saw his sharp fangs. Before she could scream, Leo bended down her neck as bit her and began to feed.

She woke up at 2 am, screaming. Leo was nowhere to be seen. She clutched her neck to feel his bite mark. Nothing. 'A dream?' she thought 'But it felt so real, so vivid.' A blush found its way on her neck as she wondered how perverted her dreams had become. Flustered and a bit unnerved, she set down again and fell asleep at once.

Meanwhile outside her windows, standing hidden on her balcony was Leo; licking Eire's stray blood from his hands.
