The song on the right is 'Make me wanna die by The pretty reckless'
**********
-I'm going to die today...great-
“I don’t get it” I shook my head.
“It’s not great to believe I know. But think. Your dad was suddenly offered a job by a firm in town which means he was offered a job to be here” Dr James said.
“But why would they want me here” I questioned.
“Beats me, all I know is you were brought here for a reason, you don’t have to believe me, but it’s the truth, people don’t just offer jobs out of the blue in this town” Dr James finished the dressing he was wrapping calmly.
“But he was promoted, he was just transferred because-“
“the town wanted him here, that’s how people get here, and then their families can never leave, I’m sorry but it’s just the way it is”
“I just don’t believe it, this was supposed to be a new life away from it all”
I knew several things now. Number one. This town is crazy and overrun with vampires. Number Two. I can't tell my family for their own protection. And number three. I need to have a serious chat with my friends about why I'm here, that is if I make it out of this alive.
In the world outside my head I heard yelling. I looked up to find Larry yelling at a quickly disappearing figure. Outraged he turned to Gerard.
"You told me to spare the little brat you go get him" he huffed. I suspected the little brat was crunchie boy. That was what I would nickname him until further notice.
Gerard slowly nodded and started off in the direction crunchie boy had just ran. There was a loud clatter and I heard Gerard curse quite loudly. I sighed exasperated and went after him ignoring any orders not to.
I found Gerard outside a cupboard door. "He ran in there" he remarked before I could even acknowledge my presence. I had no doubt that he was a vampire. Which meant it was best not to trust him even though he had stopped me being dinner.
I lightly knocked on the wooden door and waited for a response. I heard muffled sobbing. "Hey pumpkin don't cry, it's me remember the girl that gave you the chocolate bar?" I said sweetly.
"I remember you" a little voice said.
"Yeah that's me. Um my name is Jinx what's yours?" I asked.
"That's a cool name Jinx" the little voice said suddenly becoming excited. "I'm called Kieran" he said.
"That's a nice name Kieran" I smiled,"Why don't you come back out?"
"I don't want to, those bad men are scary"
"I know they are scary! but if you come back out I won't let them scare you" I remarked ignoring Gerard when he rolled his eyes.
"I don't want to Jinx"
"Come on Kieran they won't hurt you sweetie, I'll make sure they don't" There was a long moment of silence. Then I heard a little clanking noise and the door slowly creaked open. I slipped my arm just in front to prevent Gerard grabbing knowing that he could probably break my arm anyways. No harm in trying though is there?
His arm only slightly faltered and then he looked down at it ashamed. "Just because you're a vampire doesn't mean you have to act like one" I whispered under my breath.
