Vampire Love

Chapter 5 ☾

They rode back and I saw my mother grinning from ear to ear. I'd never seen her so happy before, for she always was worried about work.

"That's it? Can't we go for another ride?" My mother sounded like a little child, as if they had just came from paradise and landed on earth.

"Mom, you stole my date! I think that's enough for today!" I had been waited for an hour, doing absolutely nothing. I was being laughed at by Bella, who had decided to be the biggest jerk in the whole world at that point.

The pouty child she is, Mom got off and stormed into the house in frustration. Suddenly, she popped her head out of the door and said, "Great meeting you, Derek! Maybe we can get together again sometime." Then she silently mouthed 'Call me' and giggled into the house.

Derek smiled and laughed as I shook my head silently. Surprised by the sudden urgency, he pulled me onto this motorcycle and rode onto the rode before I could ask where we were going.

*******************************************************************************************

He stopped at a fast jerk, and hopped off the bike, while I was still hazy from the ride. He held my hand as I tried to get off.

"You rode so fast! Couldn't you hear me screaming to slow down?" I looked around and smiled. The beach: I could smell the scent of the sea blue ocean. I shrieked and ran to the sand. I gasped when I felt the warm sand touch my toes, it felt so relaxing. Derek chuckled and I blushed. I probably looked like some freak. The truth is I love going to the beach. It took my mind off of things, and so I'm almost there every week. Derek took out a rug and we sat on top of it. He brought a basket full of food for a picnic. (I still don't know how he fit that onto his motorcycle)

"So how do you like Heights?" I asked him as I popped a grape into my mouth.

"It's pretty cool. You know I was born here?" I raised my eyebrows at his answer.

"So have I! I was raised here. Why don't I remember you?" He shrugged, but I could tell he was trying to get rid of the answer. Probably had a bad childhood here. "Let's walk in the water!" I tried to pull on his arm, but his arm wouldn't budge. Oooh, he worked out! Suddenly, I remembered I wasn't on a date, so I snapped out of it.

"Fine let's go." He walked up and ran towards the water, leaving me behind. I smiled, walking, suddenly had a sharp pain come across my foot. I let a loud shriek and next thing you know, Derek is by my side, holding me before I almost fell.

"Where does it hurt?" He quickly asked as he examined my body. I saw his face become stiff but I was still in pain, so I said, "My foot! I think its bleeding." At first, he looked away and stood there, like nothing happened. What the hell? Is he planning on helping me or not?

Finally after about thirty seconds, Derek knelt down, took off his shirt, and used it to wrap my foot around. His abs, oh my fucking god, they were shining in the sunlight, and I couldn't breathe. When I found myself looking, I silently cursed myself and held my foot. Derek looked around, like he was trying to find something.

After a few seconds, he turned around with a smirk, holding up something small. "You cut your foot with a seashell. Watch where you walking, darling." I felt myself turning red and Derek gave a short laugh.

"You're my hero again. I don't know how you do it." I said to him and we were both sitting, his face only inches away.

"Maybe it's not me. Maybe your the clumsy one." Now, it must have been about an inch away, at the speed of our heads coming closer.

"Maybe." Fuck, just kiss me! I wanted to scream. At half an inch, I stopped, and he leaned his head to kiss me. Only he didn't.

It seemed as if he snapped out of it, and he turned his head away. I was a bit shocked, and I stared at him for a few seconds, and he just looked angry.

What the hell just happened?
