Vampire

Chapter 5

Kate's POV

James shoved me against the wall and I cried out in pain. My eyes were filled with tears and I knew he was going to kill me. I will never see my family and friends again He backed away from me slightlyl. I looked at him and I got more and more afraid and as he leaned his head back showing his fangs a tear escaped my eye. He came closer to me and catched my tear with his finger, I flinched away from his touch. He stared into my eyes and said "Are you okay?". I looked up at him, unure. Did he just say that? He's going to kill me and then he asks me if I'm okay? 

I turned my head sharply as I heard knocking on the door. It must be Tristan I thought, relieved. He is just as scary as James, but it seems like he wants to help me. "What are you doing to her James?" He shouted. James lifted his head to look at the door before he looked back into my eyes. "Is something wrong?" I whispered to him. I must  have lost my mind. James didn't answear, he just walked over to the bed, he sat down and put his head in his hands. Then he started.. crying? I walked over to him and sat down and started patting his back. Something is definetly really wrong with me. He turned his head slightly towards me, "Stop" he said harshly and I immediatley stopped and looked down ant my hands. 

What was happening? Was he gonna kill me or not?. "James!! what's going on in there?" Tristan shouted. I stared at James trying to figure it out myself. James lifted his head and looked over at me. His cheeks were stained with little tears. I didn't know vampires could cry? "Nothing" James whispered back to Tristan. He managed to talk properly without his voice cracking. Tristans started walking away from the room. What now?

I stood up from the bed and walked a few steps away from James. He was unstable right now and I didn't want him to snap. He told me earlier that when my hearts pounds fast the smell grows more delicious so I tried getting my breathing under control. James looked up at me. "You don't have to be afraid of me anymore Kate" he whispered. Was he kidding with me? He just tried to kill me! "Just sit down here" he said while patting the spot next to him on the ned. I shook my head slightly, afraid that I would make him snap out of this trance he was in. He sighed and looked down at his hands. "I guess I can't blame you" he said. I lifted my hand up to my neck, the blood had started to dry, but it still hurt. James got up from the bed and walked towards me and I jumped back into the wall. I closed my eyes at the pain. I had slammed head first into the wall. 

James' eyes widened in shock as he looked at me. I lifted my hand, this time to check for any damage of bleading in my head. I flinched as I laid my hand on the sore spot, but there were luckily no blood there. James walked towards a door that were in the other end of the room. I had not noticed that door until now. He opened the door and closed it after him. I took the time to look around the room. It was not a big room. The bed stood close to the door and the door that we came in through was just at the foot end of the bed. On the other side of the room was the door James just walked through and a dresser. Nothing else was in the room, if you don't count the two windows for things that is. I could hear water running and after a few minutes James came out with a wet towel in one hand and a first aid kit in the other. He walked towards me and I backed away from him. 

"Just sit down on the bed" he said. I was afraid that he would hurt me if I didn't listen so I obeyed. I sat down at the edge of the bed and stared up at him. He sat down next to me and my heart started beating faster again. He laid the first aid kit down on the bed before he opened it. He took out a bandaid and leaned towards me, but I moved back from him again. "Hold still" he said and used his other hand to  hold me by my shoulder. He put on the banaid on my neck before he took the towel and put it over the sore spot in my head. I flinched slightly when he did. I stared up at him, into his dark eyes. He stared back into mine, he didn't seem to sure of what he was doing. "You must be really confused huh?". I nodded. "Well.. you see" he started before sighing heavily. "When you turn into a vampire you can choose if you want to have your feelings shut off. It's much easier that way. No feelings, no guilt, nothing. You can turn it off just like a switch. I've had it off for so long as I can remember, but something about your scream back there made me turn it back on" he said. 

I just stared at him, deep in thought. Why had he chosen to turn it back on because of me? I stared biting my lip. "I'm sorry about everything Kate. I think you should go home. Everything is coming back. All the regret and guilt, everything. It's not safe for you here" he said and took his hand with the towel away from me as he got up from the bed. He walked over to the door and unlocked it. He let me go, but I was a bit fascinated by him. I coulden't make my feet work. I was curious of him. "But why?" I asked him in a whisper. He stood by the door, holding it open for me. He just shook his shoulders and then pointed to the door. I got my feet to listen then, but I was shaking so badly that I could barely stand. 

I walked slowly towards him. When I was out the door I started walking faster. I could see the door that lead out of this house, that lead me towards freedom. But wait a second, how was I going to get myself home? I didn't have a car. I opened the front door and closed it slowly, breathing a sigh of relief, that I was finally free. I started sprinting away from the house with no clue wich way I was supposed to go to get away. The house was in the middle of the woods for God's sake!
