The Eternal Ones (Completed)

The Eternal Ones :o5: Bruised And Scarred

Aiden stood there with his arms crossed.

"Where have you been?" he asked again.

"Just out...I needed some fresh air." I said.

"You have a balcony. You could've just used that." he said, not believing my excuse.

"I just...I need to get out of the house." I said.

"Let me guess, to see Emmit." he said.

"Why do you care?" I said and started walking towards the stairs.

"Hayden, come back here!" he said, rushing after me and grabbing my arm.

"What?!" I asked.

"Do not talk to me like that." he said.

"Dude, chill out. You're not dad...or mom." I said.

"Remember, I'm the one responsible for you. So, I have the rightful authority." he said.

"Just leave me alone." I said.

"Hayden, what happened to you? I bet this Emittron guy is having a bad effect on you." he said.

"Okay, first of all, it's Emmit. Second, you don't even know him." I said.

"You don't know him either. You just met him like a couple days ago." he said.

"Aiden, I say this because I care. So shut the fu---"

He totally snapped.

He slapped my face and I fell back, hitting my arm on the stair banister.

"Hayden...I....I'm sorry." he said.

I looked up at him, feeling hurt.

"What is going on here?" Tia asked, standing at the top of the stairs.

She rushed down to me, "Hayden, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." I said as she helped me up.

I marched upstairs, leaving Aiden and Tia.

I walked into my room and laid down on my bed, in tears. Suddenly, the doors that lead to the balcony, flew open.

"Emmit?" I said, sitting up.

"I couldn't bare to stay away from you." he said, closing the balcony doors.

He sat next to me and examined my face, "Why are you crying?"

"Nothing." I said.

His gaze travelled to the bruise on my arm, "Who did that to you?"

"No one." I said.

"Hayden, is someone hurting you?" he asked.

"Don't worry about it." I said, shaking my head.

He wiped my tears away and pulled me into his arms.

"If anyone ever touches you like that, I will hurt them." he said.

"Emmit, you barely know me. I don't mean to be rude but why do you care so much?" I asked.

"Hayden, I may not know much about you but I do know that I need to protect you." he said, "I can't let the full-bloods get you."

"Full-bloods? Who are they?" I asked.

"Hayden, there are different kinds of vampires. The ones who are turned and the ones who are born that way. The full-bloods are the last surviving clan of full-bloods. They feed off of the richest blood and nothing less. Without it, they are powerless." he explained.

"What do they want with me?" I asked.

"The full-bloods only need the blood of one human to last them years. When their 'hunting time' comes, they search for the person with the person who is considered to have the 'best blood'." he said.

"What? I don't want to be fed off of by a bunch of killer vamps." I said, "Besides, my blood's just blood."

"Their clan goes by areas. You're the only one they want. You're sweet, innocent, pure..." he said.

"Okay, sweet. I'll take that and innocent, maybe. But what the heck do you mean by pure? Like I'm clean and fresh or something like that?" I asked.

He chuckled and trailed his fingers up and down my arm, "Pure as in...you haven't 'done it' yet."

"Oh..." I said, quietly, "How would they know that?"

"They have their special senses, their ways and...you can tell by the look in your eyes." he said, smirking.

"No, you can't. You're just messing with me." I said.

"I would never lie when it comes to the full-bloods." he said, moving closer to my face.

"Okay, I believe you." I said, "And, they're...right. I am---"

He suddenly crashed his lips against mine and I kissed back. Something about a vampire's kisses is so intoxicating. I laid down and he hovered over me.

I could feel his fangs coming out.

"Ow." I said as they cut my lip a little.

He looked at me, afraid, "I...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to--"

"It's fine." I said.

He sat down, looking away from me as if trying to resist. I could tell this was from blood deprivation.

"Emmit, can I ask you something?" I asked.

"Sure." he said.

"When was the last time you had human blood?" I asked.

"I guess, I long time." he replied.

I made him look at me and his eyes stared at my bleeding lip. I could feel his breath staggering. I could sense that he was starving for human blood. He didn't necesarrily need it but he was definately craving it.

I moved closer to his face and he was just surprised at what I was doing.

"A few drops won't hurt." I said and pulled him into another kiss.

He was kissing back but I could feel him savoring the blood. He stopped and turned away from me.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Hayden, I can't do this." he said, "Another taste of your blood and I might just go insane from the want. I can't do that to you."

"I'm sorry, I just thought that would help." I said, disappointed.

He walked over to me and sat down again. He laid me down on his chest and held me closer.

"Go to sleep." he said, kissing my forehead.

I eventually drifted off to dreamland as Emmit stroked my hair.

I woke up the next morning, feeling really good.

"Emmit?" I said, turning to my side.

He was gone.
