Chapter 4- He Really Gets Them

Chapter 4- He Really Gets Them

Zoe's P.O.V.

Days, or probably a week has passed since the incident when that "vampire kidnapped" me. I don't know what's wrong with me, but i kind of wanted to see him, but then i kind of don't. I mean who wouldn't be interested in finding out more about a vampire, but then being scared too? Wait that doesn't make sense...Okay then....

I was called in for a night shift this Saturday night. Which means that i'm the last one to stay there till closing time. I personally didn't like it, but hey it's my job so i have to do it. So being...me i got ready, did my hair and all that stuff. I put my phone in my purse, put my shoes on, and walked out the door. I didn't need to drive to the cafe since it was only like a 5 or 7 minute walk. 

When i finally got there my manager greeted me, and told me what to do. Even though i already knew. 

"I'm just making sure Zoe." She said to me and smiled. 

"Yea i know. You always do." I said. 

"Ok well see you later, good night!" She said as she walked out of the cafe. 

Great, i'm all alone in this cafe. It's pretty dark outside, and it's dark inside....OH STOP CREEPING YOURSELF OUT ZOE!! Why do i always do that? UGH!

Nobody usually comes to the cafe during the night hours, so i don't get the point of keeping it open really late. I honestly had nothing to do, so I went to take out my phone from my purse. Once i got it, i just sat on a stool behind a counter, and started to play fruit pop. I adore this game! It's just so addicting! 

But as i was playing the game, I had a feeling that someone was looking at me. I looked away from my phone, and quickly looked around finding nobody there. I just shrugged it off my shoulder, and went back to my game.

Suddenly, i heard the door open which made me jump. I quickly put my phone in my pocket, and stood up. 

A pretty tall man walked in. He had beautiful red hair. He was wearing a red sweatshirt, with jeans and some sneakers. He had a nice smile on his face.

I felt like i was being hypnotized to look at him or something. But i quickly snapped back to reality. When i did i noticed his face changed emotions. Okay...

"And what would a girl like you be doing here?" He asked me. 

"A girl like me? Well this is my job, that's why." I said back to him a little annoyed. Did he just call me girl?

"And what brings you here?" I asked him with a grin on my face.

"Just some tea." He simply said. 

"At night. Tea. Okay whatever you want." I said, as i went to go make some tea for him. I decided that i would make some for myself too, since i was getting a bit thirsty.

I heard him start to take out some money. Honestly i didn't care if he paid or not. I mean come on it's late at night. 

"Oh, it's fine. You don't need to pay." I told him. 

"But i usually do." He said with furrowed eye brows. 

"Well consider it a gift from me."I told him, and his face lit up with a smile. 

I went to go get the now ready tea, and set it on a table that the man sat at. i put my cup down too, and decided that since i don't have anything else to do, might as well just talk to him. 

"So what's your name?" He asks me.

"Zoe. What about yours?" I ask him. 

"Edward, but you could call me Ed." He tells me as i nod my head. 

"Zoe. It's a pretty unique name. I don't hear it that often." He says.

"Thanks." I say looking down at my tea cup. Not very many people say my name is unique or anything like that. In fact i didn't really think of it as unique. I just think of it as regular old Zoe. 

"Well anyway, why are you here alone?" Ed asked me concerned. 

"I just work here on the weekends, and sometimes my manager puts me on night shifts like one tonight." I explained to him.

I noticed that he was finished with his tea, an surprisingly so was i. He handed me his cup, but when i took it, our hands slightly touched. They were cold. Just like hat vampire's hands a couple of days ago. 

I start to walk back towards the counter to wash the cups. What if he's a vampire? What if he kills me? 

ZOE STOP IT! STOP OVER THINKING THINGS, AND STOP BEING PARANOID. I'm probably just thinking of this because of what happened before. 

Ed's P.O.V.

The smell of Zoe's blood was irresistible. I wanted to drain her, but something else was telling me that i shouldn't. So i didn't. 

I wonder if Harry has met her yet. Maybe he has, maybe not. I hope he hasn't, because then i could just spend time with her, and i don't have to worry about her thinking about Harry. 

Because, you know Harry, he could be quite the charmer.

"Hey, Ed, it's closing time soo.." She said. 

"Do you want me to help?" I asked her. 

"Oh no, its ok. I just have to lock the doors that's all." She said. 

"I'll just wait for you outside." I told her, and she nodded.

Once Zoe was done locking all the doors, she came out from the back door, and then came to the front. I guess that i was going to walk her home. Not that i mind though. 

Harry's P.O.V.

I was on one of my nightly walks when the smell hit me. The smell of the girl i sort of kidnapped. 

It was back, and i was not far from her. But i could sense that someone was with her. I walked towards the scent, through alleys and down hallways when i finally was a few feet away from her. 

She was laughing with someone. And i recognized that laugh. It was him. Ed. NO! He probably can't resist the scent and that's why he's talking to her!

I saw her first and she was mine! Ed seriously needs to back off! If her doesn't she won't be a choice for me. 

If she goes after Ed she'll be treated like royalty. He treats women very well, and she probably would't want to be away from him.

I mean i'm charming and have my ways, but you should see Ed. He really gets them.
