a.n.: Enjoy!
"...should be waking up soon. I hope she didn't hit her head to hard." I heard a man's voice whisper.
The next person who spoke sounded like he was smiling. "She sure is pretty isn't she? I love that brown hair." I felt someone touch my hair gently.
Who are these people? Where am I? I opened my eyes slowly. I saw two guys that looked about my age looking down at me. One had dark brown hair with sparkling green-blue eyes. The other had long black hair and looked like a Native.
"Good your awake. How's your head?" The Native asked.
"Its...fine. Who--are you?" I choked out having to clear my voice in the middle of my question so I could continue.
"Good. I'm Matthew and this is my friend Tyler." The brown haired one answered.
I nodded a little. "Where am I?"
"At my place. Tyler saw you hit your head on the branch and brought you here. What were you doing out there alone anyway? Don't you know about the leech's that hang out there?" Matthew's last words shocked me.
Leech's...did he mean vampires? Did these two know about them too? How did they know I knew? "There's vampires in the woods behind my school. Yeah sure and I'm werewolf." I said my voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Look I'm being serious. Those bloodsuckers are everywhere. Someone that...I mean...you--um what I'm trying to say...." Matthew stumbled over his words. Tyler stepped in.
"What he means is that bloodsuckers can't be trusted under any conditions. Not even for love."
I thought this over and found myself with a headache. I sat up slowly, pushing hair from my face and looked around. I was in a bedroom. There was a dresser next to the door and the be I was on was under a window. Besides that the room was empty.
"Would you like me to take you home now?" Tyler asked me.
I studied him a moment and figured he was alright. These guys seemed nice, they wouldn't hurt me...would they? "Yeah, that would be great."
Tyler smiled and before I could blink he had me off the bed and in his arms. "Whoa, um thanks but I thank I can walk." When I said this Tyler's face dropped a little but he did as I wanted him to.
As he set me down Matthew came over and placed a hand my shoulder. "Remember what Tyler said and please don't go out alone."
I nodded then headed for the door. What did these guys have against vampires? We're they really that dangerous?
The drive to my house was quit. Tyler didn't say anything unless I asked a question. When we pulled up to my house Tyler handed me a piece of paper. "It's my number. Call anytime and by that I really do mean anytime." Okay...that's like not weird at all.
I smiled and nodded as I took the paper. I climbed out of the car and to my house without even a glanced back at Tyler.
I went straight to my room and fell on the bed. When my eyes closed I saw Jeremy. Of course always on my mind. I had him totally memorized in my head. I pictured his crystal blue eyes that changed to green in different lights. I saw he's short dirty blonde hair, he's pale perfect face. That straight nose those high cheekbones. He was like the opposite of me.
I had thin, brown hair with a red tint hair that went half way down my back. My cheekbones went as high as Jeremy's but still high all the same. I had pale skin but on sunny days I could get a great tan. My eyes were green and changed. During the day they were a dark green then at night they seemed to be a much lighter green. I wasn't tall but then again I wasn't short. I was more in the middle. Jeremy on the other hand was over six feet so he towered over me. I was skinny and looked like an athlete but I was more of a bookworm other than a sports girl.
Jeremy was well built but not so well built he was football material. He was more the baseball type anyway. I loved him and he probably hated me. But what had he expected me to think? A vampire that drinks from animals and not humans. Yeah right. Then there was that story about the doctor that worked in the hospital and was a vampire. Yeah like there was a vampire doctor living in little Forks. That was totally believable.
Man did my head hurt! Where were those pain killers? I was searching the draws in mom's desk when I heard them. "She's still at school, no need to worry." This was a Male's voice, it rang and sounded beautiful.
"Then way is the smell so strong if she's gone?" That one was a girl, she sounded so young but still beautiful.
I silently closed the drawer I was looking through and walked over to the door. I looked out in to the hallway and saw two people standing at my front door.
They were so pale they looked sick. The girl had black hair that flowed down her back in ringlets. The guy had short brown hair. I watched them for a minute and noticed they didn't move at all the whole time I watched. How can they stand so still? Why are they so pale? That can't be good for them to look like that. Then like an idiot I sneezed making the two whip around so fast I barley saw them.
I gasped and slammed the office door when I saw there eyes. Black. I had vampires in my house. Not that bad right? No wait these drink from humans and well lucky me I'm human. Now what? I racked my brain but came up with nothing.
"I thought you said she wasn't here!" The girl shouted.
"Well she wasn't suppose to be! Now stop yelling and go get her!" The male order.
Suddenly the door to the office swung open trowing me forward and to the ground. I jumped up and turned back to the door. The girl smiled evil like and narrowed her eyes at me. "Hello, Melissa." She started moving to me.
I put on a fake smile. "Hi what's your name?" I tried to look hyper and excited.
She cocked her head to the side but kept coming, slowly. "Karrie." Was the only thing she said before lunging at me.
I dodged her by an inch. She looked like she was about to fall to the floor. Instead Karrie turned quickly and jumped for me again. I moved but was a little to late. Karrie's hit my arm and we both went to the floor. I let out a quit scream when we both happened to land on my arm. My arm hurt so bad but I wouldn't let that show. No way would I show weakness around vampires that wanted to...wait what did they want?
"Be still." Karrie ordered trying to pin me on the floor.
I wiggled and squirmed every which way I could until I got free from her grip. I pushed her off me with my legs then hoped up from the floor. I started for the door that lead to the hallway but turned for the other one when I saw the male standing there. I made it to the second door that would take me to the kitchen. One moment I saw the door and the next I saw Karrie. I stepped to the left just as she came for me again. What was with her? She was like the easiest vampire to get away from. She must be new or something.
I heard a soft growl as Karrie missed me again. Guess it was getting to her that she couldn't get me. I ran though the kitchen and was almost to the back door when I was grabbed from behind and thrown against the nearest wall. As I stood up I felt dizzy. I saw the male in front of me with Karrie behind him.
"I haven't had the chance to introduce myself yet." He said inching to me with a smile on his face. "My name is Michael. Karrie is my sister." Well thanks for telling me. I really wanted to know your name and how Karrie is related to you. Not!
What I wanted to know was what the heck did these guys want. I opened my mouth to say something witty and sarcastic but never got around to it. I had the hardest time keeping a straight face and not blowing it when I saw Jeremy standing behind Karrie. I knew if I let my eyes grow big and my mouth hang open like I wanted them to it would tip Karrie off.
Careful not to stare I glared at Michael.
"I can guess that your wondering what our purpose is of being here." Well duh!
"Yes. That would be nice to know." I simply said.
Michael smiled and reached his hand out to me. "I'd like to tell you that but I can't here. We must go to my home and everything shall be explained there." Idiot! I'm not going anywhere with you! This guy must be high or something.
"Of course. I understand." I made it seem as if I was going to take his hand but at the last moment I whipped my hand away. He looked confused for a second but that was the only emotion he had time to make before Jeremy throw him across the room.
