First Kill

First Kiss Part 1

Juliet Pov

I was kissing a girl as our hands couldn't stop touching each other. I felt my pills hit the ground, but I didn't care as I kept kissing this goddess. I started seeing peach trees and flowers blooming. I am having bloodlust also. Then everything went left, I bit her neck and a knife was dripping blood on the floor. That is when I woke up.

[Gasps]

"That was a crazy one. Sometimes when I first wake up, my heart is racing and my throat is dry. Can't figure out if the pills are making the dreams more real or the reason they're not worse." I thought to myself as I got ready for school.

"Even on good days, I still feel like I don't fit in. Like everyone else has it all figured out. The clothes they wear. The bands they like. Who they are. Who they wanna be." I thought again as I tried to figure out something to do with my hair. I settled on a messy bun. I looked into my little tin canister as I looked at the blood pills. Before I just closed it and huffed out.

"And I'm the only one who's stuck pretending." I finished my thoughts. I walked downstairs and into my sister Elinor's room. I walked over to her makeup area and looked down at the lipstick choices before picking the one I liked. I wanted to try and look pretty for once. I looked back at the door to make sure she wasn't coming in, before I applied it and put the lipstick back and looked at myself before getting up and walking out of her room and into the kitchen.

"Good morning, darling." Mother said. As I got my "lunch" ready for school.

"Sleep well?" Dad asked me and I thought about it for a second.

"Uh, sure." I responded.

"I refilled these for you. You were almost out." Mother said, holding up my blood pills. I looked up from the "coffee" pot and saw her looking at me unamused.

"Already? Are you feeling okay?" Dad asked me.

"I'm fine." I told them as I put on a small smile. I took a drink from my mug and felt a bit more relaxed.

"Of course I'm not fine. They just want me to say it out loud. But I won't. Because that would be the end of everything and I'm not ready for what comes next." My inner voice said as I looked straight at my parents

"Juliette." Dad started off. I knew where this was going

" It's been three weeks since your birthday. We know your nervous but we both think it's time you-" Mother was cut off by my sister Elinor walking into the house.

[Door opens]

"Morning." She said as she walked inside the house.

"Morning." I said back to her as she took Dad's cup and drank from it.

"Elinor, have you been out all night?" Mother asked her.

"If I'm home now, does it really matter?" Elinor responded

""It does when you work for me." Dad told her as she sat up on the counter.

"Have I ever been late?" She shot back as I watched from afar.

"Elinor, my role model. One day, I, too, will be a self confident, bull-by-the-horns kind of girl, who doesn't give a shit what my parents think." My inner voice said as it was interrupted by my best friend Ben car horn.

[Car horn honks]

[Sighs] "Juliette, could you please remind Ben that we have a doorbell?" Mother asked me.

"Oh, he knows." I said as I grabbed my stuff from the table as I looked at my mother.

"We'll come back to these?" She asked me holding up my bottle of blood pills. I just sighed as I reached my hand out to get them. She placed them in my hand as I gave Dad a kiss on the cheek. He held up my cup and I was about to leave when Elinor stopped me as I reached down for my sunglasses by the door. My guess she used her vamp speed.
