Italic= Alexandra inside her head

"You're funny." he said.

"I know!" I said.

"So now what do you want to do?" he asked.

"I don't know." I said.

He closed his eyes as he thought of something. I picked up a pillow and threw it at him. He opened his eyes and grabbed the pillow. I was laughing. He threw it back at me and it hit my head.

"Hey!" I squealed.

We kept throwing pillows back and forth for about five minutes. We were laughing hysterically. Somehow Eric was sitting next to me. He had stopped laughing but I was giggling. He looked at me and smiled. My heart started beating really fast. I wanted to kiss him so badly. I looked away quickly. Just in case he read my mind. I felt his hand on my cheek and he turned me to face him. Oh my God! He leaned forward and was about to kiss me then he laughed.

"You really....... thought I was...... going to kiss you." he said in between laughs.

"You are a real jerk you know that." I said.

He continued to laugh.

I turned to face him. He was on his back because he was laughing so hard. Then I did the unthinkable. I kissed him. Surprisingly he kissed me back. My fingers intertwined in his hair. He pulled me closer then he pushed me away.

"We can't do this." he said as he got off my bed.

My heart was on overdrive. I was breathing really quickly to. I looked up at him as he paced the room trying to figure out how that happened. We heard a knock on the door. Eric froze.

"Come in." I said.

Jenna walked in. She looked at us. I automatically felt guilty. I looked down and didn't make eye contact.

"What's going on?" she asked sounding unsure.

"It's not as bad as it is going to sound." Eric said quickly.

"Okay. What happened?" Jenna asked.

"I slapped her." Eric lied.

"You what!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Why??" Jenna asked.

"She hit me. And it was an accident. I over reacted." Eric said.

Jenna nodded.

"I should go." Eric said as he left the room.

Jenna looked at me.

"What really happened?" she asked me.

If you tell her I will hit you.

But I don't know how to lie.

Try! Please.

I can't.

"I kissed him. But he didn't kiss me back. He pushed me away from him." I said.

"I knew it." she murmured.

"How?" I asked.

"The way you were breathing kind of gave it away." she said.

I blushed.

"I won't tell John. But if it happens again don't tell me." she warned.

"It won't happen again." I whispered.

"Why not? You like him don't you?" she asked as she sat down next to me.

I nodded.

"But he doesn't feel the same way." I said.

I felt her hand on my shoulder.

"Or does he?" she countered.

I shook my head.

"You never know." she said.

She stood up.

"I am going to get you more water." she said.

"Okay." I said.

She left and went to get me more water. I laid down on my bed and turned around so I wouldn't face the door. I heard the door open.

"Jenna?" I said.

I sat up and looked to see who it was.

"What are you doing in here?" I asked.

Eric walked over to me. He sat down on my bed and looked at me.

What are you doing in here?

Alexandra I'm sorry for threatening to hit you.

You were scared. It's okay. By the way you can call me Alex. But don't tell John I want to be called that.

I won't tell him. But you can't tell him that I kissed you.

I nodded.

I promise.

Okay. I need to go.

Bye.

Bye.

Then he was gone. Jenna brought more water up for me and then I was asleep. I woke up to the food already on the bed side table. I missed Eric. I ate the food quickly. Jenna came up now and then and gave me more water. We would talk to each other and it was nice. I heard someone come in. It was John because he rarely knocks. He was going to feed from me again. This should be fun. When he talked I didn't say anything. He bit into me on the neck. Sadly it was at a different place then the other day. So now I have two new holes on my neck. I fell asleep sometime after he left my room. I woke up around dinner time. I saw food on the table and saw Eric sleeping on the sofa. I smiled. I walked over to Eric and tapped his shoulder. He opened his eyes and stared at me.

"I see somebody finally woke up." Eric stated.

I rolled my eyes and walked over to the bed and sat down. I nibbled on the food that he brought up here but I wasn't that hungry.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

I just nodded.

"Then why aren't you talking?" he asked.

"Tiered I guess." I whispered.

It seemed like John sucked the life out of me when he feed from me.

He stared at me then looked down at his hands.

Did you fight him this time?

No..... I didn't do anything.

He probably took to much blood from you. But if you tell him I said that he will kill me.

Okay. So were you asleep or were you just resting?

Resting. John wants me to take care of you and his guest that is visiting.

Who is it?

All I know it that they're a vampire. I don't know who they are or anything else.

Oh okay.

So why aren't you eating?

I'm not really hungry.

He stood up and walked over to take the plate away. I grabbed the plate and moved it before he could grab it.

Alex. Give it to me now.

No!

He looked at me. Then turned to leave the room.

"Don't go!" I said quickly.

He stopped and turned around.

"I have to. Now give me the plate so I can go give it to Jenna." he said while reaching out for the plate.

I handed it to him. His fingers brushed mine. He hadn't touched me since yesterday afternoon. It felt amazing. It was like everything in the room disappeared but him. My heart started to beat faster then his touch went away. Everything went back to normal. He turned to leave and then stopped.

"Bye." he said.

He opened the door and left before I could say anything.

"Bye." I whispered.
