Vampire3oh3- hahaha eye candy is Someone or something that is visually attractive or pleasing to look at, example a hot guy or a cute vampire, in other words is eye candy ;D

Lovelesshope- thank you for adding my story to your favorite, do review =p

Don'twannabetorn9- hehe thanks for your review. And you see since its someone in the family who wants to kill Lizz, s/he probably would know where to look for her. Cause s/he would know where her parents are. So they simply left thus whoever s/he is wouldn't know where to start looking from. Umm I hope that helps, do ask me again if I need to explain it in a little more detailed way. =D

DISCLAIMER: I OWN THIS STORYS PLOT AND CHARACTERS.

Bumped.

Embracing myself for the fall I closed my eyes exasperated. My brain couldn't take any more.

After a few seconds, when my supposed fall didn't come, I opened my eyes, only to come in contact with a topaz ones.

They were mesmerizing.

I was in the arms of a man even more breathtaking.

He had bronze hair and sharp, angular features. From what I could tell he seemed like a muscular guy. He seemed perfect in every way possible. He was pale and had a bit of darkness of a bad boy in his eyes. He was so hot, no word could describe him. I would have loved to stay and chit chat if I'd be in another situation but what I just found out about my family a few minutes ago had given me a brain freeze.

I knew it was my fault but surprising myself as well I suddenly snapped. "What the hell! Get your hand off me! Are you blind? Can't you see! I'm sure I'm huge enough that even a bull would be able to see m-"

Suddenly I was up hard against the wall with his hand on my neck and his face only inches from mine.

"Who the hell do you think you are human? Watch your mouth!" he said, slowly, seductively, stoically and deadly.

That's when I realized that he was a vampire as well. I didn't know what to say.

My life had turned upside down in a matter of 3 hours. I was in a house full of vampires alone, my parents weren't dead, I'm suppose to marry a vampire and to top it off, right now I'm probably just gonna die on my birthday.

"I hate waiting for humans to reply. Do you have a death wish? Answer me! Who are you? How dare you speak in my presence? "

Who the hell did he think he was?

For the first time in my life I was scared of someone. He held authority and command in his voice. He had a dark aura around him.

His grip tightened and I came out of my revive.

"I.. I'm..-"

"Nevermind! As much as I'd love to hang around and play I have other important issues to attend to."

He suddenly let go n I fell down with a thud n heard;

"hmph, does that feel better?" with that he left.

What the..?? Who the hell did he think he was? First scarring the hell out of me, demanding an answer n then when I'm about to give one he cuts me off and leaves? How infuriating.

Well who ever he was, scared the hell out of me but I had other matters to think about as well.

I ran and left. I needed fresh air.

After several minutes I seemed lost. I didn't know my way back. So I just slumped against one of the walls. It was like a maze and I'd taken so many turns that I completely lost track.

I didn't realize when my tears started flowing down my cheek.

I thought that I didn't really have a choice but to believe my parents, they wouldn't lie to me and I couldn't bear to live without them again or could I? Could I hate them enough to leave them? No, Never! But I'd defiantly blame them.

Did I have no say in my marriage matters? Everything in life had a purpose, maybe mine was to marry a bloodsucker.

I'm so confused.

Why didn't they just tell me all this earlier, I would have understood better. I would have stayed quite, friendless and most of all prepared to give my freedom away. How much time did I have? Will I be able to go back to my old life? My friends? That thought made me cry even harder. My friends. They surely would miss me. I would have given them a treat today if I was home. I looked at my watch. 11:00 a.m. time was surely not with me.

I guess I just had to accept my fate and embrace my future but that was not like me. I would try, try to get out of this mess!

"Oh yes! I could talk my way out of this! Yes! I'm good at convincing people right? That's how I always get my way. I'll get myself out of this mess! I can do it!" I mumbled to myself.

I got up, determined and pumped up. Wiped my tears and headed in the direction I came from.

After what seemed like a lot of time I couldn't find my way back.

"Great! I'm lost.." I muttered.

"May I be of any assistance to help escort a beautiful lady like you?"

Astonished I turned around to come face to face with a very good looking guy. He had black eyes and was yet another vampire.

A shiver ran down my spine.

"Umm.. Hi, could u take me to-"

"I'll take her from here Vince." interrupted a beautiful young girl in a low deadly voice. She had golden-ish brown hair and brown eyes, reminded me a lot of Tracy, stinging my eyes.

Grabbing my hand she led me far away from him. I heard a "see you later"

We slowed our pace, it seemed a little awkward and as if reading my thought she said;

"Hello, my name is Lindsay. You're Elizabeth right?"

"Yes, how did u know?"

"Well u see, I'm David's almost sister-in-law" she giggled

Stunned I stumbled unlike me, I never staggered, "Umm.. Oh.. Ni..Nice to me-meet you."

If I was tripping over my words like that just in front of his sister-in-law what would I do when I met him?

"I can tell we'll be great friends!" she exclaimed.

I just remained silent not wanting to lie. Me and befriend a vampire? Let alone marry one? I don't think so.

Lindsay broke the silence "I've really been looking forward to meeting you. Now finally I have. I'm so happy for you both. "

Silence.

She sighed.

"A word of advice; stay away from Vince."

On that I looked up to her, well who was she to tell me who to stay away from? Was I now suppose to be controlled by these vampires as well? Well, why don't they just lock me away in a cage!

"I don't need your advice and thanks for your concern but I think I can be a better judge of who to stay with and without."

It came out harsher than I intended to.

"I was.. I was just.. concerned."

She sounded like my words really hurt her.

I instantly felt guilty.

"I'm sorry." I whispered. "I'm just.. So confused, it's like everything I believe in has been changed, altered. I don't know what to believe in anymore. I'm scared, I don't know what to feel, happy or sad? It's a lot to take in. I'm not easily submissive, I'm short tempered, arrogant, out going, self centered, stubborn.. I just don't know if ill be able to survive here. I'm just human." It was barely a whisper.

Wow, I couldn't believe how honest I was to a complete stranger. I guess I just needed someone to talk to.

I looked up to see Lindsay's expression. It was so sweet and made me smile. "I understand and apology accepted. I'm always there for you if you ever feel like talking to someone. Oh and ill help you survive here, don't you worry little princess. I'll take you to this awesome mall for vampires and their pets" she winked at me and continued "since you've got to select a whole new wardrobe and all. You will love it, by the way I like what you're wearing."

"Thanks" I smiled at that. Maybe we could be good friends. I already liked her.

"You're welcome. Now, going back to Vince, I really do think you should keep your distance from him." My smile faded "Not only him but any other member of the Salvatore extended family. I'm sure you've heard that someone in the family is after you?" she whispered.

I really had to concentrate to make out what she was saying.

I nodded and she carried on "so you see this year is very crucial for you as I wouldn't want to loose a nice girl like you."

I nodded and stayed quite.

"Not that we would let it happen but we can't do it without you playing some part in it as well" she smiled.

We reached my parents room. I opened it and walked in.

"Hey mom, dad"

They nodded.

"I'll leave you now." With that Lindsay left the room.

"Goodbye."

"Bye sweetie." Said my mum.

The door closed.

"Mom?"

She looked like she was going to cry.

"I'm.. im so sorry.. my darling.. I-I.. we love you.. so much.. we didn't kn-know.. im s-so.. s-s-sorry.. if you wa-want.. we can..- " she sobbed.

Another fact noted; vampires couldn't cry.

The sight was devastating. I rushed to her and hugged her as tight as possible. I hushed her by saying the complete opposite of what I wanted to.

"shhh.. Hush.. it's okay mother. Ill marry him."
