I woke up to Bell shaking me.
"What do you want?" I moaned.
"It's morning." She stated " Wakey wakey!"
I laughed and sat up.
"Does that mean I have to get up?" I asked "I'm sure a lot of brilliant people slept till noon."
She rolled her eyes and pulled me off of the bed. We walked over to the closet. In it, were hundreds of different shirts, jeans, and skirts. I choose a navy blue T-Shirt with dark blue jeans. I put my long brown hair up in a pony tail. Bell put on a black T-Shirt and Jeans. When we were both dressed, we walked downstairs and saw all three brothers sitting on the velvety red couch.
"Good morning sleepy heads." Dameon said, smiling at Bell.
She was smiling at him too. Had I missed something?
"I'm hungry," I said.
They all looked at me.
"You aren't hungry." Scott said "You're thirsty."
I gave him a puzzled look. What did he mean? Then I realized, vampires need blood. I looked at him, horrified.
"We don't drink human blood." He explained "We drink animal blood."
Relief overwhelmed me. I wasn't thrilled about taking an animals life, but animals were better than people.
"Skyler will take you hunting." Scott told me "Dameon and Bell will go work on her gift. I have things I need to take care of."
Bell and I looked at eachother. It seemed like a good plan.
"Lets go." Skyler said.
I walked over to him and he took my hand. We walked outside, leaving the others behind.
"You're just as fast as me." He told me "It's what helps us hunt."
When we reached the woods he continued.
"What smells good to you?" He asked.
"Everything." I answered truthfully.
"Well let your senses go." He said "Open yourself to this environment, and whatever animal you smell, attack it. You'll know what to do from there."
I did as was told. I let my body and my mind unwind. I let the forest have me. I forgot about everything at that very moment. When I smelled something that made my mouth water, My senses took over, and I caught my first animal. It tasted so good. I felt like a monster but it soothed the thirst so I didn't care. I smelled something even better than the first animal. I left that carcase and bolted to the sweet smell. It tasted even better. I hunted for over five hours and soon, I couldn't drink anymore blood. I looked for Skyler, but instead, he found me.
"How do you feel?" He asked.
"Full!" I laughed.
He laughed with me.
"Let"s go home." He said.
He took my hand again, and we ran home. When we got there. We heard a noise coming from the shed. We gave each other an alarmed look and ran to the shed. When we oped the door, Dameon and Bell were making out. Skyler's jaw dropped and so did mine. I thought that she hated him. When they noticed our presence, they stopped.
"Um....Suprise?" Dameon said, smiling.
Bell gave me a 'I was going to tell you' look. I was just too shocked to react.
"Well be going now." Skyler said.
He picked me up and threw me over his shoulder.
"Let's go to the meadow." He said.
I just nodded my head. I couldn't respond or even move. When we reached the meadow, he put me down in the grass and sat next to me.
"That was.....interesting...."Skyler laughed.
"Yeah." I answered "Didn't see that one coming."
"How long do you think we should stay here?" He asked.
"Till we're sure that they're done making out." I laughed.
"I'm glad that Bell has Dameon." I said "She doesn't date."
"Dameon hasn't dated in 35 years." He laughed.
"Really?!" I asked in a shocked voice.
"Yeah." He answered "I'm glad that he has Bell. He doesn't really have anyone other than us. He's been here longer than me though. I'm the youngest."
I didn't know that.
"How did you become a vampire?" I asked.
He hesitated but told me anyway.
"I was 18. I had just gotten into a fight with my parents. They were angry with me because I wasn't interested in my father's bosses daughter." He laughed at that part "They wanted my fathers career to t off by using me. I ran out of my home and into the woods. I walked around until I heard voices talking. When they noticed that I was there, The one girl said 'isn't he just adorable! Can we keep him?' I stood there in fear. She ran over to me. 'No Zelda!' a man yelled. It was too late though. The women took a bite into my neck. They ran away quickly. When I woke up, Dameon was sitting next to me. I never saw my parents again."
I felt so sorry for him. Then I realized I would never see my parents again. I cried a little. For him and for me. He hugged me and we both stood up.
"Let's go home." He said "They should be done kissing by now."
We ran home together. We walked through the back door and into the living room. Bell and Dameon were sitting on the couch. Bell's arms were crossed and she had an angry look on her face. Dameon sat in the same postion but with a confused look on his face. What had happened?
"Hey guys." Skyler and I said in unison.
They both looked at us. Both seemed so upset. I couldn't figure out why. Before we knew it, it was dark out.
"Bell, lets go to bed." I said
We walked upstairs and layed on the bed. We drifted to sleep, in an uncomfortable silence.
