Love Bites

Chapter 10

SCARLETS POV

The two men laughed as my body tumbled into the water. It fell to the furthest depth and changed to my true form, not Florences.

"That was easy," He said.

Just as he turned to leave ripples started emerging from the water. The shorter guy noticed and they both turned around to face the water.

My head emerged from the water. The two men gasped and began stepping backwards. My face was scarred and pourus, massive cracks lined with dried blood cascaded across my skin. Parts were green and mouldy.

The rest of my body followed as I stepped out of the lake. A gaping hold in my side where I was shot had blood pouring out making the lake go red.

Suddenly I lunged forward and to the horror of the taller guy I pounced on the small squat guy. I held my hands on either side of his head and smiled menecingly.

"Ready to die," I whispered.

"No please no!" He cried.

With one short swift movement of my hands his body grew limp and his eyes rolled back in his head.

I turned to the tall guy. "You better get running."

All this time I had been biting my tounge trying to stop myself drinking his blood. I could almost feel it pulsing through his veins, making its way around his body. I resisted the urge and instead ran back to Ollie, making a deliberate detour to knock the tall guy over.

FLORENCES POV

"Are you gonna eat?" I asked shifting another helping onto my plate, can you blame me, it was amazing!

"No thanks, you eat it I'm going to eat with the others later." He said.

I felt the urge to ask questions like, where are you going, what do you mean eat later with the others. Instead I kept them to myself thinking it best.

"You know I can read most of your mind," He said laughing.

'Crap!'

"And that."

I didnt think about much for a little while, making sure I would trip up on anything.

"How come you couldn't hear my thoughts, you know, when I was in my room."

"Like I said I can only read some thoughts, when someone is in danger, I easily read there mind for miles; and I can choose who's mind I listen to. When you came into my room I was listening to Scarlets and Chases." He said, "Maybe thats why I didnt hear you,"

I finished my last mouthful and Ollie stood up and started to (very quickly) clear the table. He sat back down within five seconds.

"Wow, express cleaning," I said.

He stood up again and sort of warped to my side. He scooped me up and carried me into the movie room. As soon as we were in he dropped me onto the sofa.

"Thanks, very graceful." I said.

"I'm sorry," He retaliated raising his hands in the air, "I cant be perfect all the time."

I laughed.

He wandered over to a cabinet full of DVD's that I hadnt noticed earlier; and began to pick a film. He scanned his finger across them but for once, at normal speed. Picking one and putting it in the laptop he turned holding the case up to me. It was 'Grown Ups'.
