Demons by Imagine Dragons is like my favourite song right now.

Chelsea stared at Isabelle still clutching the blood bag, Isabelle's eyes never left Chelsea's face. "Chelsea... You have to stop. Come on give me the blood."

"No!" Chelsea snarled. 

"Chelsea come on that's enough. I'm okay with you having 2 bags of blood a day but 10 bags in 12 hours is far too much! Give it to me!" Isabelle tried to take the blood bag off her but Chelsea grabbed onto her arm and pushed it away. "Give me the bag now."

"Let me have it! I want it!" Isabelle quickly took it off of her and put it on her desk. Chelsea growled and got up from the floor. "Give it back!"

"No. You've not even been a vampire for a whole day and you're already out of control! You need to calm down! I know everything's heightened at the moment but after a few weeks it'll be okay. You'll be like your normal self again."

"Maybe I don't want to be normal again." Chelsea said while wiping the blood off her face with her sleeve. "You seem to forget I didn't have a choice between life and death, I think I can do what I want."

"You're right. I'm sorry Chelsea. I'm just trying to look out for you. You're my best friend. It's a hard life to get used to. Yeah I had a choice, but that's because I hated my old life. When I found out this life was possible and everything was true I chose it and I don't regret it, I just regret it because of you having to transition and my mother dying."

"You don't get it. You don't have to regret anything I love this life, don't get me wrong it's going to be hard when I go back to Philadelphia in a few days-"

"Wait? What?"

"I've chosen to go back home tomorrow, Miss Carter said it was my choice whether I wanted to stay here or go back. Even though it's going to be hard. I can handle it... I promise you I'll be fine."

"I think you should stay here for a while, get used to what you can physically do. Get taught by the other vampires who are much older here." 

"I can't stay here cramped up here with everyone else. I can control it and if I lose control I'll just move on won't I. After all I am a vampire." Chelsea chuckled and stood up, she looked up in the mirror and wiped the blood off her face. "I'm sorry about what you had to see there, Miss Carter said it'll be a little bit hard at the beginning."

"It's true Chels. It is hard but you've actually handled it well. Better then I'll ever be." Isabelle looked around the room. "Chels... I need to tell you something."

"Yeah what is it?" 

"I'm leaving."

"Your coming back to Philadelphia?"

"No. I'm going to go travelling for a few years."

"With Leo?"

"I don't know."

"What do you mean you don't know? Have you told him yet? How long have you been thinking about this? Have you told Miss Carter your decision?"

"Enough with the questions. I don't if we are going to go travelling together because I haven't told him anything, I've been thinking about it around two weeks now. It's been a rough couple of months, I need a break. I'm going to see Miss Carter about it in a few hours, tell her my decision."

"You need to tell him. He loves you Izzy."

"Don't you think I know that Chels. I don't think I'll be able to cope if he says no and I don't want to break his heart."
