Lost.
There is no map to guide me, there's no one to lead me to,
happiness.
I've been sitting in my room for a couple of months now. Not being able to eat or smile or do anything. All my happiness is gone, he left.
He left me.
We had 3 minutes of goodbyes and that was it. He's gone. He hasn't even written a postcard or a letter to me. No emails, I checked my phone every 5 minutes for a couple of weeks. But then eventually stopped, gave up. Now the only thing I look at is the outside. The seasons changing, going from warm to cold. Just like my heart.

"Jesse..." My mother walked in, holding a tray filled with different types of food, "Is there anything I can do? Anything??? Please..."
I shook my head and covered my face, it was cold. I tried to cry but nothing would come out, as if all the tears already escaped.
"At least eat a little bit, or even take a shower." She whined and walked over to me putting her hand on my shoulder.
I thought about it for a minute, and then nodded my head slowly. I can't keep doing this to my self, I have to forget about him.
My mother put the food on my desk and left. Now the food is left there to dry up and get consumed by bugs.

I decided to go to school for the first time in 2 months. It was a big step but one that needed to be done. When I got into the class, I could see everyone's eyes go wide as they saw me enter. I looked pale and skinny and grey. Whispers were running down the rows as I sat down.
"Welcome back Jesse, we all missed you. Right class?" The class mumbled and the teacher started his lesson. In the middle of no where, the door swung open, revealing a boy. Another one, already?
"Hello Mr. Gardner, it's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Marco." He was wearing a black leather jacket and had black curly hair. Bile was rising in my throat after the thought of Daniel.
"Just sit wherever you would like, we have no time. I must continue on." The teacher shook his hand out into the crowd and I hid my face.
He started walking towards me, please anything but that. He sat down and I could feel cold coming from his body. I shivered and he looked up at me. His eyes turned from brown to yellow and my mouth dropped.
He was a vampire. For sure he was, no doubt. The coldness and the eyes...
I could feel all the air in my body escape, replaced with fear.
He opened his binder and in one of the sleeves, I could see a picture of a girl. As I looked closer, it look an awful lot like me.
"Huh..." I whispered to myself and looked even more closer. Well, I was missing a picture of me in my room...
God, oh God. It was me.
Marco noticed that I was looking at the binder and he quickly closed the binder and looked over at me and grinned and whispered,"I found you."
