A/N- Hey all you readers out there, sorry I've been a bad person and didn't update on Friday like I normally do, I had nothing... but I have something now! Sorry Thanks for all y'all who keep reading the story and leave comments for me, the comments always make me feel like I'm doing something meaningful... so here you go, the next chapter in Bloodthirsty
Ross's POV
Once I started the car Hayley immediately asked "Where we going?"
"You'll see" I answered smiling, basically mocking her that she'd have to sit there and wait. I felt her trying to get inside my head but I brushed her off like she was nothing and kept my focus on the road. "Okay, we're gonna playthat game, are we? Alright... just wait Ross" she said crossing her arms in front of her chest, leaning back in her chair, and smiling evilly. I may know what this girl is capable of, but I could care less, she's gonna enjoy where we're going, and she's gonna have to wait. Quite a few different times I felt her trying to find out where we're going when she thought I wasn't paying attention but I still managed to keep her out. Eventually she just got too agitated with trying. "Why can't you just tell me where we're going?!" she asked impatiently.
"Because, you're gonna have a nice surprise for once!" I answered, still with my smile on my face. We drove for about 20 more minuets and ended up at the pier which had the greatest carnival I had ever seen. I saw Hayley's eyes light up as I pulled into a parking spot and shut off the engine. "Here?" she asked not taking her eyes off the lights.
"Here" I said sweetly. Hayley looked over at me a little concerned.
"Are you gonna be able to go in there with all the people?"
"Hey, for you, I'd walk through a blood bank and not touch a thing"
"C'mon, I'd never ask you to dothat"
"Well, figuratively or not, I'd do anything to make you happy"
She smiled that beautiful smile she had and kissed me quickly before she got out of the car. I got out of the car and Hayley was next to me in an instant, holding my hand, dragging me over to the fair. This is what I love about this girl, the fact that she is the biggest child I know. Once we walked into the fair itself I was overwhelmed with the waves of people around me with the smell of blood everywhere. F***, I thought, if Hayley wasn't here next to me, I would've lost control before I even got up here. Hayley looked back and saw in my eyes that I was really struggling here. She looked me in the eyes and did that cute little tilted head smile at me. "If you can't do this, we can go somewhere else" she offered sweetly. I clenched my teeth but put on a smile and shook my head. She had on that unsure look on her face and came back and walked next to me as opposed to in front of me, and that helped. I took he onto the line for the Ferris Wheel, but she looked terrified at the sight of the ride. We got on the ride and I sat there nonchalantly with my arms across the back of the ride while Hayley was clinging to me so tightly so I draped an arm around her shoulders and held her close to me. We got stuck at the top and I heard a buzz from the lower carts that the ride was broken down so we'd be stuck for a while. Hayley was trembling and I was sitting there thinking, she's beaten evil forces, been turned into a vampire, almost been killed by me, was actually killed and came back to life, and she's scared of a Ferris Wheel... of all the things she has to be scared about... she's scared of a ride. I smiled and wrapped her in a hug. "Hayley, we're fine... I've got you if anything happens, okay?" I reassured her. I felt her nod into my chest and relax a little bit. "Now if only I could say the same for myself" I said out loud to myself looking over at the flurry of people down below us, the smell of blood was bearable from up here, but I wanted to die when I was down there. Hayley sat up and looked at me. "Now, if you can get me to control myself up here, you can control yourself down there, and I'm there Ross... take it out on me, you know I can take anything right about now" she said in an know-it-all type way. I chuckled a bit and looked out at the water. "I wouldn't wanna get charged with abuse" I said jokingly. Hayley rolled her eyes and shook her head.
"Then why not just squeeze my hand, nobody will notice that"
"I guess... it's just, you know I don't like hurting you or having you get hurt, and trust me, with how much I'm trying, it's going tohurt"
"Calm down Ross... I don't care... whatever it takes for you to have fun with me tonight"
"Hayley"
"Ross, you gotta channel it somehow without someone dying"
I didn't want to end up breaking Hayley's hand, but she was right, if I didn't channel this somehow, I was gonna end up killing someone somehow. Hayley turned my head to face her and she kissed me. I leaned into it and didn't want the ride to start up again because I loved the view from up here and I loved being up here with Hayley. She pulled back and looked at me. "You'll be fine Ross... I promise" she tried to reassure me, somehow, I doubted that. The ride eventually started moving again and the smell was getting stronger and stronger and we went down and Ireally didn't want to get off the ride. The worker lifted up the bar and Hayley grabbed my hand and dragged me off the ride. We walked around playing games and I was actually having fun. I held on tightly to Hayley's hand and it actually helped me to keep me from going rogue on everyone here. We walked past the cotton candy booth and after we passed it Hayley said she wanted some. I smiled at her. "Fine, wait here, I'll go get it" I said.
"You'll be okay?" she asked concerned.
"Yeah... I'm a lot better than I was before"
"Good to hear"
She kissed me quickly and then I went to the cotton candy stand.
