Hey guys! I have too much free time now. I'll try to update at least once every couple of days. I'm going on vacation next weekend though so I won't be updating for a couple of days there. As always, R&R! You guys are awesome!
Chapter Thirteen
Mary-Lynette's POV:
"Ugh," I mutter weakly, squinting my eyes against the light. A hand grips mine tightly and I can hear someone crying.
Mary-Lynette, wake up. Ash's voice begs in my head. I open my eyes all the way, peering at Ash. I feel different. It feels kind of hard to breathe.
"You're okay," Ash breathes, kissing my temple. I begin to feel even worse. I look up to see Rashel. Tears are running down her face.
"Wh-What happened?" I whisper. Ash looks striken.
"He strangled you too much. You've been out for three days. I had to... turn you or else you wouldn't have made it," Ash says, not meeting my eyes. My body freezes.
"Turn me...? As in... I'm a vampire now?" I whisper. No wonder Ash looks afraid. Rashel approaches.
"If you don't drink blood soon, then there will be some problems," Rashel says. I give her a confused look when she bares her neck to me.
"But... I could hurt you," I say, jsut barely restraining myself. It's really hard and it hurts but Rashel is my friend.
"Go ahead. I won't let you hurt her," Ash says, nudging my shoulder. With nothing else holding me back, I lean forward and sink my new fangs into Rashel's neck. I feel Ash's hand on my shoulder. He pulls me back and I feel much better. Everything looks different. I look at Rashel and I see dried tears on her face.
"Rashel, what's wrong?" I ask. More tears fall from Rashel's eyes and Ash glances down, his expression sad.
"Quinn got hurt during the fight. We don't know if he's going to make it. He hasn't opened his eyes since," Rashel says, looking at me with her teary eyes. She cries into my shoulder and I hold her close.
"He got distracted when one of the guys slapped Rashel. They got a good hit in on him and then they all went after him," Ash says, leaning his head against our entwined fingers. Not only had I turned into a vampire but Quinn could die. Could things get any worse?
