Finally! An update! Thanks for reviewing, I checked my email the day after I last updated and I had like 24 new emails lol, all of them being reviews, alerts, and favorites. You guys rock! I never thought I'd get over 100 reviews!

Previously in Chapter 12:

"What is it?!" I repeated, "Tell me! I'm tired of not knowing!"

"Holly..." His face was completely serious, the joking face I was used to was gone. He looked sad. And scared.

"Tell me," I said quietly.

"Holly, I think... you may be... Changing..."

"W-what?" I asked, not quite sure I heard him right.

Jason got up and started pacing, "You were bitten... you had that spasm the other day... temporary deafness, intensified hearing... the seizure... they're all apart of the Change. I remember going through that," he glanced at me, "Sucks for you."

I laughed once, humorlessly. I didn't know what to say, how to react. I'm Changing? Into a vampire? Why didn't Derrick tell me this would happen?

I looked up as Jason continued to speak, "The Change hasn't happened in over 80 years... I was one of the last to become a vampire. For some reason, vamps stopped producing venom. No one knows why. It's pretty messed up."

"So... I can't be Changing then?" I asked hopefully.

Jason shook his head and my heart sunk, "No, I'm pretty sure you are. I mean, there's no other explanation for the stuff happening to you."

I didn't want to believe him, but I knew he was right. My life is screwed up, and there's no going back. When people used to ask me, 'If you could go back in time and change something in your life, would you?', my answer was always no, but now, if someone was to ask me that, it would be a hell yes. I would go back and make it where I was never bitten, then I wouldn't be in the process of changing into a freakin' vampire!

But since time machines apparently haven't been invented yet, I am. Might as well learn about what's going on with me, "How does the Change work?"

Jason sat down in his chair, facing me, "Well, the Change starts once the venom has spread fully throughout your body, so maybe 3... 4 days after being bitten," Jason pondered for a moment and continued, "Your senses will start going in and out of focus. One minute you'll be able to smell Derrick's dirty socks 2 miles away, the next you wouldn't catch a whiff of anything even if it was shoved up your nostrils. You'll also be getting spasms of pain, which you've already experienced..." he winced, "Sometimes they're a few seconds long, and other times, they can last for hours. Turning into a vampire can take up to 2 to 3 weeks. They'll be the worst weeks of your life, babe, trust me."

I put my head in my hands. I cannot believe this is happening to me.

Sadness was clearly heard in Jason's voice as he said, "But there's something that makes this situation a ba-jillion times worse."

I groaned, "How bad could this possibly get?!"

"Pretty bad," he sighed, "Holly, people don't always make it through the Change..."

I gulped, "You mean...?"

Jason nodded grimly, "You either become a vampire... or die."

Wow, um, that was ridiculously short, sorry about that. Please review and don't tell me 'Great chapter, but it could've been longer' cause it couldn't have been. I have severe writer's block. You're lucky you got this much.

Much Love :P
