Shadows

5. VAMPIRES

I awoke screaming. I was dripping in sweat. I looked over to Elena who was awake and scared. I left out deep breathes and whipped a hand over my face. I got up from bed and took my towel with me I also grabbed extra clothes. I hopped into the shower resting my hand on the wall and letting the cool water calm me down. Once I was out I put on the bathing suit that I decided only to wear the top an then underwear and short shorts. I threw a top over it and headed out. I glanced at the clock and it said seven am the car wash doesn't start till nine.

I sighed and walked out of the room with Elena in tow. She stalked me till I opened the fridge and pulled out a beer. I twisted the cap and chugged it. When I finished the beer I went for another but Elena slapped my hand away and said, " You are not getting drunk right before the car wash."

I slapped her arm and said, "Watch me."

I grabbed two beers and twisted the cap off. I ran into the living room with Elena chasing me I downed the next bottle in seconds and let it fall to the floor. I twisted the cap off the next one running out the front door. I ran all over the front yard with Elena chasing me. I took a couple of sips and when we heard a car pull up Elena stopped to stare, me on the other hand I couldn't care less. I need to get  these thoughts and dreadful dreams out of my head. So I'm doing what I think cure it. Getting drunk.

I downed the last bottle and threw the bottle in the street. Now I need a smoke. I turned to see Elena talking to Stefan both of hem staring at me. I watched them as I went back into the house and up to Jeremy's room. I knocked on the door and no answer. I walked in to see his cigarettes popping out of his front pocket of his jeans that were laying on the chair. While he was laying in bed with his eyes closed and his head phones on. I ran over to his cigarettes and grabbed them. I took the lighter as well. I had cigarette hanging in my mouth and when I was about to turn to go down stairs I saw Elena and Stefan waiting for me.

"rut ro," I said looking them in the eyes.

"Jade what was in your dream last night?" Elena asked me. My eyes quickly flicked to him and remembered how he was in some kind of daze and when he threw Elena's lifeless body to the ground. I didn't know what to say so I ran. I ran towards my room and locked my door grabbing my bike keys and hopping out the window. I swung from branch to branch like a monkey trying to escape the predator.

I reached the ground and ran throwing my helmet on and putting my keys in the ignition and kicking up the brake in less than fourteen seconds. With that I rammed on the gear and zipped out of the backyard and to the front of the house. I saw Elena and Stefan running out when the heard my motorcycle. They gave me a look filled with worry and concern. I speed off down the street and down to the turnpike.

"Jade," I heard Stefan's voice come from next to me. My head snapped to the side to see nothing. Suddenly I lost control of my bike and it turned to the side flipping over with me on it. I fell of the bike after the third spin. I heard cracking from the pressure of the bike and twisting in odd directions.

I rolled several times on the road and came to a halt. I raised my hands to take off my helmet. Thank god for no broken arms. Once I had my Helmet off I glanced down at the rest of my body. MY leg was broken by the looks of the being out of place. I had to have dislocated my shoulder and I regretted every move I had to make. I tried to sit up but I cried out in pain. A couple of ribs had to be broken as well.

I gently made my way to my pocket that held my phone I was gasping in pain. I hit speed dial and it was picked up after the second ring, "Jade were are you?"

It was Elena she sounded panicked. I hadn't realized that I was crying until I said, "Put Stefan on."

"Jade are you okay? What's wrong?" she said in a panicking voice. I hung up. I didn't want Elena to worry. Right after I hung up though my phone started buzzing. I hit send and weakly said, "Hello?"
