Ok, I normally wont update so quickly, but this chapter was getting stuck in my head and it just wouldn't go away which is very distracting when you've got three essays due. (don't ask why) But anyways, when we left off we see Shane and Michael are having more troubles, Claire is confused, and Eve is in ICU, and so far nobody knows if she'll survive. Will Eve live? Will Shane kill Michael? R&R! That's not an option. J Love my readers. J

Eve…

The one person who had accepted me from the beginning… Who had loved me despite my choice to become a vampire. Who says she had loved me for years. My love, my equal, my life. The one thing that had kept me sane and human. And now I've destroyed her. I ruined everything.

Eve…

Wake up. Please, wake up. For three days this has been my only thoughts. And I've had plenty of time to think. I haven't left the hospital. Not even to go home and shower, change my clothes, and during the day I sit in the shade. I don't deserve all those privileges. If I killed Eve then I would never need those things.

Shane and Claire avoid me. I see Claire looking at me, like she wants to say something to me but then I see the fear in her eyes and she looks away. My friends fear me. My world is falling apart, and I feel like I'm at the bottom, waiting for it all to fall on me, crushing me, killing me. I have never craved death like this in my life, undead or otherwise. Shane looks at me with fury and menace. And I don't blame him. I wish he would kill me.

I looked at the hospital doors, wishing Eve would come out. But no, they do open but it's a nurse. A short one, with curly dirty blonde hair, a little chubby. She's not the girl I ache to see, to hold. She is insignificant. She looks over at me, and then at the nurses station. She walk up to the desk and I hear the only words that hold any meaning to me.

"Eve Rosser is awake."

And before I even realize what I'm doing, I have the nurse by the shoulders and she's screams. I put my hand over her mouth shutting off her scream. I barely hear Shane and Claire, one yelling at me to put her down, the other begging me to calm down.

"Let me see her."

I growl at the nurse telling her I'm serous.

"But-But.."

"I'm not kidding. Let me see her. Or ill be the last thing you'll see."

The words came out of my mouth in surprise, yet I didn't care. I knew I wouldn't really hurt this innocent nurse, yet the look I was giving her made her think I would. She nodded and begged me to let her down. I dropped her and gave a pointed look towards the door. Shaking, she led me to the doors and I looked back at Shane and Claire.

"Stay here. I want to see her alone for a minute."

"Oh, hell no bloodsuck-"

"Shane! Let Michael see her for a minute."

Shane looked at her in shock, as did I. Sweet Claire.

"Fine, vampire, two minutes not a second more.:

I nodded and gave Claire what I tried to make look like a smile. I followed the nurse back down a long hallway. She stopped at a room and then turned back to me. I jerked my head back towards the way we came. Whatever else, this nurse was not stupid, nor was she slow in walking away. I took a deep breath and walked in the room. I saw Eve, sitting up in bed, her eyes closed, her breathing even, her heartbeat slow, but good. I sighed in relief, and her eyes snapped open. For second there was no sound, no breathing, and not even a heart beat. Then the sound of her scream pierced the air and the beast inside my heart….

Stupid, stupid. Why had I let that vampire go back and see her? I paced counting the seconds he'd been gone. One minute passed. Just one more. Not that long but each second felt like an hour. Then I heard it. Eve's scream. I'd heard it before but never, ever like this. Pure terror. Not thinking I ran through the doors going towards the scream, getting louder the closer I got. I ran into her room and saw nurses and doctors trying to restrain her. She was thrashing, practically spazzing. She saw me and yelled.

"SHANE! SHANE KILL HIM! KILL MICHAEL!"

~So what did you think? I'm eager to hear your thoughts and suggestions. Btw, Eve will be both scared and mad in the next chapter im just not sure how to work with it. Please help! Love my readers! J
