DHAMPIR

11

The crippling fear I have sitting in my car after dealing with my emotions the past couple of days has me biting my nails with anxiety. Watching my peers pass me by on the way into school. I wish I was normal like them. Not having to worry about anything. My dad tried to get me to feed but my predicament has stopped me all together from what I truly need. Stiles. After that night, I blocked him. I ignored his passed messages from my parents to me. The small pebbles hitting my window at night. Scott trying to be a mediator. I can't do this. My breath hitches in fear as I sink down in my seat watching Stiles drive into the parking lot. He gets out just one row over a couple down from me and I feeeze. He looks around and I take my seat belt off and sink in my seat. Closing my eyes my heart pounds and I jump hearing a knock on my door. Hesitant, I look up seeing Jackson who smiles at me and I let my eyes pool with tears due to the anxiety and stress. Jackson's smile falls and a glare takes over his face before he tells me to unlock the doors. He walks around and gets in the passenger seat looking at me before closing the door. "What's wrong?"

"I can't tell you. I'm just scared to go into school." I whisper wiping away a fallen tear before I make eye contact with Stiles. "Is it shit for brains? Did he make you cry? That little bitch I'm gonna."

"No! No. Please don't, it isn't anything he done. It's me." I reply looking over at him before glancing back to Stiles only to see he's gone. "Let's get out of here. I'll take you for ice cream?"

Looking at him my smile slowly comes on my face and he smiles as well before he puts on his seatbelt. Clicking mine, I pull out of the school and we head to our favorite ice cream place.

Sitting in silence in my car after we got our ice cream. I glance at him before looking out the window. "It all started with my birth." I say quietly while he looks over to me with furrowed brows. "What I'm about to tell you is completely the truth. So please just listen to me and I'll answer any questions you have." I say already regretting my life choice of telling him. He's been so nice to me. Like a brother. And I feel I can trust him. "My father was a vampire. My mother a human. They met when my mom was on a trip traveling abroad in Romania. My mom was my dad's blood singer. Um, well a mate in easier terms. They fell in love, they had me. Vampires can in fact procreate but the birth can kill mortals. I was growing fast in my mother's womb and she had me in just five months. My father changed her and I lived with my parents until I was five. At that time my vampiric side was dormant. My parents were killed by hunters. One of my father's coven members killed a hunter, thus breaking the treaty they had set years prior. My father took me and my mother and ran. We just didn't get lucky. My mother hid me in an orphanage, where my parents here adopted me. My bloodlust took my best friend from me. My parents moved us here because this is where they were from. I feel like everything would be better here. I hoped, I could get a new start. I met Stiles, and it all changed. He's my blood singer. He's not entirely open to the idea of being stuck with me. He wasn't supposed to find out about me. The bond does crazy things and I feel like I'm beginning to lose control. I don't want to, I'm just scared. Stiles said some things when he thought I was asleep when I was in the hospital from when that...thing attacked us. Also, to my face, when the bond at first couldn't keep him away from me. Now, he wants nothing to do with me, but I was the one who cut myself off from him. I don't want to have him choose, so I chose for him." I cry and Jackson just stares at me before hugging me to his chest tightly.

"I'm sorry, I'm so so sorry you have to deal with this. Thank you for trusting me and telling me. I have you, you have me for anything. I won't let that twat waffle hurt you. Or anyone for that matter." He says pulling away from me while I smile and nod wiping away my tears. "So can I see your fangs?" He questions with a goofy smile and I laugh letting my fangs drop low before he smirks at me. "My little vampire." He whispers squeezing my cheek softly while I laugh at him. "Your little vampire." I softly reply before I start the car. "Well I can't avoid school forever and we already missed three school periods." I say while he rolls his eyes and puts on his seatbelt again.
