Your head is pounding as you begin to regain consciousness

Your head is pounding as you begin to regain consciousness. You can hear a small beeping off to your side, and you have to slowly open your eyes to adjust to the brightness. When you look around you notice you are in a hospital bed, an IV is hooked up to your arm with a blood pack attached to it. You place your hand on your neck to find it has been bandaged, and you sigh with a smile.

"I'm still alive." You look around the room and see Mari asleep in one of the chairs, you wonder how long she'd been there. She stirs a bit before she finally wakes up, her eyes widen when she sees that you're awake, and she quickly jumps up from her chair.

"Oh my god! You're okay!" she practically yells while wrapping her arms around you, pulling you into a suffocating hug. "I was so worried about you! This is all my fault, I shouldn't have left!" You can tell she has been crying from the puffiness around her eyes, you bet she feels guilty for leaving you, which is the last thing you want.

"No, stop. None of this is your fault. So don't you dare blame yourself," you say, pointing a finger at her. You try to sound intimidating, but your voice comes out weak and raspy.

"But it is. I'm your friend and I should have been there."

You look down at the ground trying to recall what had happened that night. Instantly, you remember flashes of people being attacked, seeing Taehyung, and a pair of red eyes beating into yours. You perk your head back up.

"What happened... and how did I get here?" you ask, and Mari opens her mouth to respond, but you hear a male voice answer your question.

"A young man brought you here saying you needed help." You look to see a doctor walking into the room. "He said you were attacked by a group of men and that you were running low on blood," he explains, and you nod slowly, taking in the information you were just given.

"Did the man tell you his name?"

"He didn't say," he answers simply. "He had us take you, but before we could ask him any more questions he had left."

"How long have I been out?" You look to both the doctor and Mari.

"About 3 days. We want to keep you here for at least another day to make sure you're stable, then we can send you home." You nod again before the doctor leaves.

So you don't know if Taehyung was the one who brought you here, but who else would it have been? And why would they leave without saying their name? Everything is so strange, not to mention the fact that you're pretty sure you'd been bitten by a vampire, you aren't even sure if you will turn into one yourself. Thinking back to the night you remember the feeling of Taehyung biting you, it was painful for an instant, but then you remember the wave of pleasure that surged through your body... you enjoyed it. You place your hands on your head.

'I'm crazy,' you say to yourself, 'I was attacked by a vampire... and I liked it?... ugh I'm losing it.' You look up from your palms to see Mari staring at you.
