Midnight

Chapter 3: Bad Day

He leaned over fast and tried to sink his teeth into my flesh but I jerked back and slapped him on his cheek bone. He muttered in laughter "Dang Lil I didn't know you were this sexy when you were scared." I turned around and tugged on my door handle. Great. I had locked it. Now I'm going to die. I took my moms hammer that she always put on the bottom of the car and smashed the window. It was my only chance of escape.

I started to climb out of the window. I felt something sharp touch my leg. I looked down and saw blood gushing out all onto the inside of the car door. I turned around to see Justin eyeing my cut. Oh no. I slipped out probably getting more cuts on my legs and started to sprint down the road. I saw a black figure move past me, I was distracted for a second then, BAM! I hit something hard. I felt around for a second and realized it was a body thank god. Safety. I looked up to see what the person looked like. No. It was Justin. A scream escaped from my mouth.

"Hello? Lil? Are you there?" I was snapped back to reality. Before I could stop myself I said "get away from me!!!" He held up his hands like all the criminals do when they get caught by the police. "Calm down Lil. I know it's a lot to take in. I'm not gonna hurt you." His words didn't reassure me anymore. I was NOT ready to trust a vampire. "Get out of my car!" He looked kind of hurt "ok, ok. I'm leaving." He opened the door and got out. As soon as that door closed I pushed the gas as hard as I could and took off.

Calm down. It's gonna be fine. I'm dreaming. I'm going to wake up any second in my bed all nice and comfy. Vampires don't exist Lil. I forgot I was driving for a second and almost hit a car. Shit. Pay attention to the road Lil. It's gonna be fine.

I got home gave my mom the keys and went straight to my room. I probably sat there for and hour or two just staring at the wall. I thought this kind of stuff only happened in movies.

Justin Pov

It hurt that she was mad up me. But I couldn't really blame her. I mean with all the horror movies about us anyone would be scared. But still I thought she was different. I had to get this off of my mind. I started running towards my house. I will never get used to how fun this fast running is.

I got home and saw my brother waiting for me outside. He knew I was going to tell her. He even bet money she would freak out. Great now I lost the girl and owe $20 to my brother. This day just keeps getting better. I went through the back door and straight up to my room hopefully not being noticed. On my way to my room I stopped by the bookshelf and picked out a book. I needed something to do to get my mind off of her. I lied down on my fluffy grey sheeted bed. I've met many girls before...but none like her. I just needed to tell her.

I heard soft footsteps coming up the stairs. That's probably my brother. "You didn't even say hi to the family? I'm guessing she freaked out." I got up and got the $20 I owed him. "Here." I said gruffly. He laughed "is baby brother hurt?" I hated him. "Shut up!" I pushed past him and out into the hall. "Where are you going?" Idiot. "Away from you." I walked outside then started running. I was getting hungry. It was time to find a meal in the forest. Maybe a deer...or a bunny...

Lily POV

Dinner was awkwardly silent after I had yelled at pretty much my whole family for disturbing me. Didn't they know I just needed to be alone? After all I did just see a vampire! Ugh. I wish they could read minds sometimes so times like this wouldn't be so awkward. Even my little brother was silent. I mean don't get me wrong I liked it. But it was awkward. "Lily's on her perrioooddd!" I spoke to soon. "UGHHH! Mooooommm!" My mom slammed her fists on the table "both of you shut up and eat!" Well that was the end of our conversation.  

Oh how I love my aunt. Not. She made things even worse. She asked my mom how the job interview went. Yea. It did not go good. Well at least we know why she's in a bad mood. I wanted to tell everyone why I was in a bad mood but they would think I was crazy. Could you imagine me in a metal hospital? Not pretty. I decided to sit quietly the rest of dinner no many how many questions about my day and my moms day came up. This day probably couldn't get worse. But I softly nocked on the wood table just in case.

Luckily the rest of the day went well. I went into my room and put on a show on my laptop. Later my mom came in and lied down with me. I guess she wanted to do the same thing as me. Curl up in a ball and hide from civilization.
