(Luna's perspective)
Days passed. Almost everyday we went to that amazing place. I couldn't get enough of it. We kissed. We laughed. We had fun.
I was on my way to school when I saw it happening.
There was a girl on the roof of the building. She cried and screamed. Nobody knew why - they all just stood there watching her. I couldn't hear anything from what she screamed. I saw that her hand was on her ear. Why?
I decided to call Lucas. The phone I called with was the phone he gave to me for emergency's. He always was very worried about me. I mean, he was still a vampire so there could happen anything. He picked up the phone in a second.
'What's going on?' he said worried.
'Where are you? Can you come to the big building at the mall? You'll see the big crowd there'.
'I'll be there in a minute', he said. And he was. Incredible once again.
I pointed my finger into the direction of the girl. 'We have to stop this, no one does anything about it. And the police will be here too late'.
'I'm going to the roof. Stay here', he said.
Haha, does he really think that I'm staying here?
I thought. He walked just like a normal human first, but when he was behind the wall he started running like a vampire. He was on the roof in a second. I tried to run as hard as he did but I failed of course. I wasn't a vampire. But still, I tried to run as hard as I could. I runned on the stairs of the building. It has those iron stairs along the stone wall. It was really high. I gasped so hard. It was too far. But I didn't give up.
A few minutes later I was on the top of the building. I saw that Lucas was trying to calm the girl down. But she was totally panicked. Now I could see why her hand was on her ear. She was on the phone with some one.
'Put it on the loudspeaker', I said.
Lucas turned around and saw me. He looked a little bit mad.
'I told you to stay down stairs. This is too dangerous. Go back to the crowd.'
'No', I said.
'Luna, don't do this to me. I don't want you to get hurt'.
'No, I'm not going. Let me help'.
'Luna, I'm telling you again, go away!'
'No, I'm not going!' I screamed and was really mad at him. I really wasn't planning to go. I runned all the way to the roof.
Lucas ignored me now. He focused on the girl. Only on the girl.
'Leave me alone!' the girl screamed while she cried her eyes out. 'Leave me alone!'
'I only want to help you', Lucas said. Like I wasn't there. He only said ''I'', instead of ''we''.
'Who is on the phone?' I asked. Lucas turned around and looked very mad at me.
The girl was shocked. Even it was a very normal question in this situation, but still, she was very shocked that I asked her that.
'I... I can't tell you. H... He will kill me'.
I tried to think of a way to fix this, but I really had no idea. But of course, there was my angel in need, Lucas came with a suggestion.
'Give the phone to me, and it all will be fine', Lucas said.
'I... I can't', she answered.
It was incredible that Lucas always stayed so calm.
'He... He will rip my heart out'.
How in hell are we going to convince her?I thought.
Lucas grumbled -which made him terrifying for a while- and then he walked towards the girl and took her phone. He didn't say anything, so I thought the other voice was speaking at that moment.
First, Lucas' face was angry, trying to look for a solution. Whatever he was thinking about to say to that person, he didn't. When he heard the voice, his face changed and got actually mad, his jaw couldn't be tenser, and his eyes couldn't denote more hate than they did. He grabbed the phone stronger; I thought he would break it. But he grumbled again, as a wild lion. The girl and I couldn't help startling because of his ferocity.
When I thought I was capable of speak, I did:
"Lucas, what is going on?"
Lucas' eyes were the most terrifying thing I've ever seen in my life. He walked so fast towards the exit, that I couldn't see him well.
"I am killing him! I swear I will!" he screamed too quick, I wasn't sure if that was what he said.
I took the phone from his hand before he left.
"Who are you?" I asked, trying to hide fear in my voice. But I didn't get it at all.
All I could hear was a laugh, a calmed laugh having fun.
"Oh." He said when he recognized my voice. And I recognized him too, how could I forget him? "Hello, honey."
Tears were already in running through my cheeks. I have never felt so furious.
"Hmmm, let's see, honey." The voice was calmed, still trying to don't laugh "I don't want to have an argument with you, okay, baby? So please, give Amanda her phone back and everything is going to be alright, okay, baby?"
I understood the girl was called Amanda.
"You are a monster!" I screamed as strong as I could. "You are a monster, you are a monster!"
Darren sighed.
"Come on, honey. We can talk about this later, okay? It's four o'clock now, so we can meet each other at… 7? I have another things to do, baby, so you have to wait a little bit. But come on, we can talk about how monster I am later. I can even show you how monster I can be when I want to... It would be an interesting conversation, totally!" he laughed. "But now, give that beautiful girl her phone back and go away."
"How can you be so evil? How can you…"
"Honey, see you later, okay? At 7 on… where? At some cafeteria? Choose the place yourself."
I closed my eyes, trying to think about something that could make that monster shut up. He was trying to avoid this subject.
"Who said to you that I would meet you? Can you please stop being so stupid?"
"Oh, honey! You are actually a very bad girl. I love it."
"WHAT?"
Amanda was still crying, and Darren heard her.
"I have things to do, baby. Amanda is waiting for me. Don't ruin this, I'm having much fun." And he laughed again.
I fought against my mind trying to look for some swearword bad enough to insult him.
"Oh, oh." He suddenly said. "Your sweet Lucas has just arrived." He laughed, but I could feet he was worried now. "He seems angry. Oh, well. Can you please say to him how much you love me, and that you don't want him to kill me? Because he's staring at me really angry." There was a little silence and then he whispered to Lucas: "I'm talking to your girl, she's a bit pain."
"Lucas." I whispered. Then I understood; he was with Darren, he was going to kill him. He swore he would. "Lucas, stop! Don't do that, don't kill your brother!"
Why did I say that? Darren was a monster, but I needed to protect him from Lucas' ferocity.
Darren was surprised.
"Wow, I love you too, baby." He laughed, but still worried. "See you at 7, then?"
"I HAVE NEVER SAID I WAS MEETING YOU AT 7!" Now I was actually angry.
"You don't have to lie because Lucas is listening, honey."
Amanda talked for the first time:
"He will be back!"
Darren heard her.
"Oh, yes. Amanda, I've forgotten her." He laughed. "Said to her that I will arrive later because my lovely brother wants to give me some cute hugs."
Darren was the most ironic person I knew.
"Run." I said to Amanda, and she, still doubting, ran away. I was alone there.
I heard Lucas' voice.
"My soul is getting lighter, but you are always trying to change this and get it darker." His voice was tortured.
And then, I heard the first blow.
