Hayley's POV

I woke up screaming and saw Ross sitting on the floor next to my bed. He put a hand on my shoulder "Shh... it's okay" He said reassuringly. His eyes were a normal normal brown color and then I DID feel reassured. I laid back and then I was feeling a searing pain in my left shoulder right where my pressure point was. "Yeah... sorry about that" he said. I looked over at him and bolted upright. "Wait, so that did happen?!"

"Yeah... I've been able to suppress that one for the longest time... you just... you have some crazy effect on me!"

"Not the best thing you want to hear from a vampire"

"Yeah... I guess not"

"No duh!" I said jokingly.

"Hey, uh, I'm having some friends over later... you mind staying up here while they're visiting?"

"But can't vampires smell blood from like, a mile away?"

"Actually a mile and a half, but they'll just think it's the blood in my fridge"

"Alright... I'll stay up here" I said uneasily.

"Don't worry Hayls... I won't let anything happen to you" he assured me quietly. I nodded quietly, then I suddenly became very tired and fell off, but before I did... I felt Ross's soft kiss on my cheek.
