2nd chappy up! Enjoy!

Chapter 2

The following night, I was walking in the city. Tonight wasn't about feeding. I'm not sure why, but tonight I didn't want to be inside.

As I walked the streets, a sudden smell suddenly caught my attention.

What smells so sweet?

Looking around, I caught the scent again and followed it. I felt like a dog, but my curiosity got the better of me.

After walking around the corner, I found what caught my attention.

A young girl was walking across the street from me. Her light brown hair was in a long braid down her back. I couldn't see her face.

She smells sweet…just like- NO! STOP THINKING ABOUT HER!

Shaking my head, I turned in the opposite direction, ignoring my instincts to follow her.

This is how it started last time! History will just repeat itself! I don't need that again!

A few steps away, I heard a noise. If it weren't for my excellent hearing, I wouldn't have heard it.

A high-pitched scream.

Without thinking, I ran towards the sound. With my speed it only took a moment to get to the alley where the scream came from.

Three men had the young girl pinned to the ground. One held her hands, the other held her legs, and the third straddled her, trying to take her coat off.

"Come on, Bitch! Let's see what you got!"

The girl struggled, but to no avail.

I saw red and ran straight for them. I punched the man that was on top of the girl and sent him flying back. The other two got startled and let her go to come at me.

The one tried to hit me, but I ducked and slammed my fist into his face. He cried in pain and fell to the ground. I then slammed my knee into it again and he dropped, passing out.

I turned to look at the third man, but he was too preoccupied with the woman. She had jumped on his back and started bashing him in the head. I smirked but my amusement ended when he grabbed her and slammed her into the wall. She crumpled to the ground.

I snarled and grabbed the man, slamming him into the wall with much more force. Now he was out cold.

Looking around quickly, I saw that all three men were not no longer a threat. I went to the girl and picked her up into my arms. Without thinking of anywhere specific, I walked off with her into the darkness.

…

I ended up in the park. I was thankful that it was empty tonight. I laid the girl gently on the park bench and bent down to inspect her head. There was a light cut on the top of her scalp but there was no major damage.

As I inspected her small wound, the smell of her blood caught my attention. I closed my eyes and shuttered.

I couldn't help but lean closer. Her sent was almost intoxicating. Before I was completely overcome, I opened my eyes.

Unfortunately, her eyes were opened too.

"Umm… Hello?" I said.

Her fist slammed into my nose.

I staggered back in pain, clutching my nose. I wasn't bleeding but it still hurt.

"What the hell!"

The girl was sitting up and breathing heavily, fist clenched and face distorted in anger. This girl was ready to fight all over again.

As soon as she saw me, her face lost all anger and guilt took over.

"Oh my god! I'm so sorry! I thought you were one of them!"

I snorted my disbelief and continued rubbing my nose.

She stood and I was finally able to see her fully. Her hair lost its braid and fell in waves down to the small of her back. Her face was heart-shaped and had a faint blush from the chill in the air. Her eyes were a light hazel and seemed to hold a mystery in their depths. Her lips were full.

What would it be like, kissing those lips?

I shook the thought away.

"It doesn't matter. Are you alright now?"

She nodded. "Yes, thank you. If it wasn't for you, I'd probably be dead."

He shrugged. "Any decent person would have helped you. I couldn't just walk away with scum like them walking around."

She was silent for a moment, and then smiled at me.

"Well, you saved my life and dealt with my punching you in the face! I need to thank you properly."

I wasn't sure how to respond to that, so I chose my words carefully.

"That's really not necessary. Just you saying it is nice enough."

"No! I insist! Please let me do something! I would have lost my virginity if it wasn't for you!"

I gaped at her, and watched as her hand flew to cover her mouth, her face turning red.

"OH MY GOD!" She screamed. "I DID NOT JUST SAY THAT!"

"…Yes…you did…" I said quietly.

She buried her face in her hands

"I am such an idiot…" She whined quietly.

Suddenly, without warning, I burst out laughing. I went years without a single chuckle, and now I couldn't seem to stop.

After a few minutes, I stopped and looked her. Her face was red and angry.

"Stop laughing! It's not funny!" She yelled, pointing at me. "If you ever tell anyone I said that then I'll… I-"

"Relax," I said. "I don't give away that kind of information to anyone without consent."

"Well… good!"

We were silent for several moments.

"So… you should get home." I said finally. "I'm sure you wouldn't want to be out anymore tonight after what happened."

"Yeah… I should get home. My parents would be worried."

I turned to go. "Well, goodnight."

"WAIT!"

I didn't make it two steps before I felt her grab my arm.

"Please… I know I shouldn't ask this… but can you walk with me for a little while? I don't want to be alone tonight. Especially after what happened."

I froze and started debating with myself.

No… your getting to close to her… think of the past

She just wants you to walk her home… nothing will happen that you wont allow…

I felt her tug and my sleeve.

"So… will you walk with me?"

After a few moments of silence…

"…Yes… I will…"
