Selene: Why'd you run off?

Me: I'm not telling you. Read the story.

"Alright. Well, we're going back."

"I'm staying a while. I'll meet you there." I said wiping my tears.

"Ok. Just be careful."

"I will. I have my weapons if needed." I replied.

"Ok, Darling. See you when you get home." She said hugging me then left.

I sat on the roof for another five minutes then jumped down to walk around. I must have walked three miles before I reached town. I got hungry and ran to the nearest forest. I watched Mom hunt when I was younger and followed my instincts. I found a deer and snuck up to it. I waited until it looked away and I jumped out attacking it. I broke its neck and fed quickly. I found a river near by and rinsed my mouth off. Suddenly I hear a crackling noise come from behind a tree. I opened my bag and pulled out my pistols cocking them to shoot. "Who's there?!" I yelled looking around suspiciously. I get tackled from behind then I hear laughter. I turn to see my attacker as he gets up.

"You should have seen your face." He said laughing.

I put my pistols away and glared at him. "That's not funny, Hayden. I thought you were a lycan."

He calmed down. "I'm sorry, Elizabeth. I didn't mean to scare you."

"What are you even doing here? You shouldn't be out here." I said with a warning tone.

"Neither should you. It's dangerous out here." He retorted.

"I'm perfectly capable of taking care of myself. I'm not human anymore. Unlike yourself." I said.

"You're not?" He asked surprised.

"No. My mother turned me this morning. I asked her too. I like being a vampire if you must know."

"Does that mean you're not coming back to school on Monday?"

"Of course I'm coming to school. I just won't be eating lunch anymore." I rolled my eyes at him.

"Oh. Good. I'd miss having you around if you weren't."

"My parents want me to live as normal of a life as possible. I don't want to be normal. Normal is boring." I said sitting on a rock.

"Liz, nobody's normal. Not even humans."

"Hayden, that's not what I meant. I just meant normal as in being human, mortal. It's boring compared to this. I'm glad I changed."

"Oh. Then change me."

"What?! NO! Hayden, it's dangerous. You could die."

"Then why'd you do it?"

"Because I did it for my family. This isn't about me." I spat.

"Your family?! Jesus Christ, Liz!"

"Yes! You wouldn't understand." I said and ran off towards home.

I ran in and up the stairs to go to the training room. I passed my mom and she stopped me. "Liz? Sweetheart, what happened?"

"I went hunting and ran into Hayden."

"Your friend from school?"

I nodded. "Yeah."

"What happened?"

"Can we talk in my room?"

"Sure. Come on." She said walking me to my room.

She opened the door and we sat on the bed. "So, what happened?"

"I told him about you turning me this morning. He wants me to turn him. I told him no because he could die. He asked me why I did it and I told him it's for my family. I didn't do it for myself. He yelled at me and I told him he wouldn't understand. I left and came home after that." I explained. "He's mad at me. I don't know what to do."

"Try talking to him on Monday." She said.

"But what if he doesn't want to listen?"

"He will. I met him a few times and I know he will. He just has to calm down."

"You sure?"

"Positive. Don't worry about it."

"Ok. Thanks, Mom. I love you." I said hugging her.

She hugged me back. "You're welcome, Princess. Love you too. Nite." She said pulling away.

"Nite." I replied and she left. I got on my laptop and started writing.
