Worth Saving

He thought she was worth saving but is he saving her, or she saving him. It starts as a simple story, boy saves girl from dying bloody in an alley. But then boy and girl fall for one another, and chaos ensues. Because vampire and human relationships… they don't work out smoothly, not with some drama and violence anyway.

Warning: Violence, mention of domestic violence, possible sex scenes in the future, and slightly creepy vampires. (not sure of any other warnings, let me know if you think of any I should add)

A/N: I wrote the first few chapters of this a little while ago. I thought I'd put it up and see what people thought. I'm not a great writer but I think this can grow into something good. Enjoy.

Prologue

I lied in a petrified state as the blood pooled beneath me.

The blackness was slowly creeping in around me and the pain they ran through my body was subsiding and I knew that I was dying. It's the end of the road for you Julie, you're finally checking out of this deep dark hole of a world.

I barely felt him as he lifted me from the cold cement and on the awaiting leather of his car.

When I awoke I was in a small and very uncomfortable bed. The smell of my own blood still lingered in my nostrils. But it slowly dissipated as the dank smell of the room came to light.

I suddenly realised that someone, unbeknownst to me, was gently caressing their tongue over my now painless wounds. I flinched as the unknown person ran their tongue over my blood encrusted knuckles.

"Oh you're finally awake." He said now facing me, his blue eyes shone against the cold darkness as everything came to focus.

"Where am I?" I squeaked, barely noticing my own voice. The images, of my fiancé plunging the knife into my side, flooding back. I made an unintentional noise of shock and the stranger cradled me in his arms.

We shared a comfortable silence for a moment, he still cradling me tight to his somewhat cold body. I let go slowly though my mind protested. Easing back onto the hard bed and as I did he cradled my face.

"What am I to do with you?" He said in a fairly intimidating voice but I found myself unafraid. I could hear my heartbeat slowly pulsing away in my ears but it wasn't fast. I knew I wasn't scared.

"What's that supposed to mean?" I said in my still unrecognisable voice. This made him smile.

"Well I should of let you die on that pavement but you seemed worth saving. I would have turned you but I wanted to know if you were someone I wanted to give the gift." He exclaimed as he tenderly moved the loose strands of hair from my face. "Not only that," He said so suddenly that I almost jumped, he laughed at my sudden fear and brought his face closer to mine. "But I wanted to know if you wanted it."

His voice resinated in my ears. "Wanted what?" I asked, my voice shaking now as his touch began to give me goose bumps.

White pearl-like fangs protruded from his gums, glistening in the small amount of visible light. His eyes like black pools of darkness, beckoning me to join him. He touched my face once again in an attempt to comfort me. "If you wanted to be like me."

I was quiet, not realising that he wanted a response from me. I was frozen with fear because I had no idea what he was going to do next. "Well," He ran his tongue over his gleaming fangs then adding. "Do you want to be like me?"

"No." As the words left my lips I began to get the looming feeling that I was going to die, for real this time. But instead his eyes cleared and his fangs retracted.

He bit his lip and said in a hurt tone. "Why not?"

I took a breath, not thinking once again as I replied. "Because I want to know if you're someone who I want to 'turn' me." I paused for a moment then continuing. "I mean I don't even know your name."

This comment made him smile once again and I knew that I wasn't going to die, not right now anyway. "I'm Bishop." He said with authority in his voice.

I giggled and against my best judgement said. "What kind of name is Bishop?"

A/N: Hope you and same amount of fun reading this as I did writing this. PLEASE PLEASE REVIEW, if you liked it. I'm not asking for much, just a few lines about your opinion. And if you enjoyed this story I'd would love for you to read my other story, Timeless Affections and Puppy Love, I need more reviews. (p.s. please no haters, I worked hard on this and my other story, I tried my best. Constructive critisim only would be nice though, so I can work on it) Ok, thanks again for reading and new chapters soon (for both stories).

Was so eager to upload this that I almost forgot the disclaimer, I DON'T OWN Bishop, though I'd like to ;)
