Only Between Us [EDITING]

FIVE

Chapter 5

The room was filled with awkwardness, did I hear him right? No, that can't be right, can it? He put himself on top of me. Damn, this was getting intense. What was he planning to do? I felt myself heat up and my cheeks flutter red. His grin, those eyes, but what I wanted was those lips.

Yep, I'm messed up.

His body felt cold against mine, it brought chills down my spine. But I kept looking at those soft and tender lips of his. Soon, I found myself biting down on mine. Drew giggled at my reaction, "Do you wanna know?"

"Do I wanna know what?" I was lost for a moment just studying his face figure but mainly those lips of his, again.

"If I'm playing or not. Do you wanna know the truth?" I just nodded my head unsure if that was the correct answer.

Finally, Drew brushed his lips against mine and down my jawline to my neck. I hesitated, wanting to push away, still afraid. He moved away and looked into my eyes deeply, almost apologetic. "I won't, I promise." But I shook my head, for some reason I wanted to feel that unnatural feeling of fangs digging into my bare flesh. Only from him though.

"Do whatever you want." Did I seriously just say that? Anything! Was I really desperate?

"Don't worry I won't go that far." He kissed me again and rested his head against my chest. And I wrapped my arms around his waist. How did this even happen? Me getting involved and then falling for Drew? Was this even possible? So many question stumbled into my head all at once making me go completely crazy. 

"Drew, why me?" He still was resting his head on my chest and slowly sighed.

"Do I really have to explain?" I felt as if he was drifting off into a restless sleep.

"Yes, you do. I don't even know how to feel. Is this even real or are we fake? Don't mess with me."

"I thought I explained it already."

"But it doesn't feel right. What do I call this?" He got up and I untied my arms.

"If you really have to question then there's nothing to call it." Drew sat up on the edge of the bed, putting back on his shirt, "It would be better if you just left without questioning me more. So leave." Was he seriously getting pissed at me? His voice wasn't no longer sweet but now bitter.

"Leave Hollis, and forget everything. Don't ever bring it up and if you do I'll find you and end you along with whoever knows." My throat became dry. Was he really threatening me, was everything fake? My emotions were mixed, tears found it's way down my cheek, streaming down like a waterfall. "Leave now!" His voice raised as he yanked on my arm dragging me out of the room.

He swung the front door open and pushing me out, but before slamming he threw out my backpack. His eyes were red again. That's what frighten me about him because whenever his eyes were red he was different, aggressive, cold, careless, and uncontrollable. 

The dark consumed me while walking home alone. Tears just constantly streamed down my face uncontrollably from the pain throbbing inside my heart. Its been forever since this feeling almost killed me. My mother put me through this pain as well after turning on me at the age of four. Those beatings still were scarred in my memory. Nightmares of those days still haunt me. But those days are over, now something else is haunting me, Drew. Not him alone but his other self, the vampire he was.

'Beep! Beep!' My head turn towards the honking noise, it was Violet. "Where the fuck have you been! You had me worried." But her tone lowered when she seen that I had been crying. "Dear lord, please don't tell me you were-" But I stopped her before she could finish the sentence, "No. It wasn't that."

She sighed, "Hop in." I walked over to the red car and got in, "What happen?"

I shook my head, "I don't wanna explain right now."

She growled at me, "What's up with you now? You've been acting weird after mom's—" Once again I stopped her and mumbled, "Demon, no, a devil."

"Hollis please don't debate about that now, she's your mother rather you like it or not." 

"You're just like everyone else." We sat in the car silently until she argued back, "Hollis I know how you feel but hiding it won't help. Is there anyone hurting you? Bullying? You gotta tell me not only as your sister but your guardian."

"You should know."

Violet turned on the car but before driving she said, "Tell me when your gonna stop being an ass so we can talk." And off we went, awkwardly driving home.
