Me And The Outcast

Breathless Bites

Starke's POV

...you tell me everything. My name is Alex. I think your pretty cool. She gets a lot closer. I step right up against her. She puts her hands on my shoulders and I put mine on her waist. I lift her up and she wraps her legs around my waist, and we kiss. I push her up against the wall and the kiss deepens.

Alex's POV

I put my hands on his shoulder. Starke puts his on my waist and I jump and wrap my legs around his waist. We kiss and he pushes me up against the wall. His friends leave and I walk into his room and lay down. He lays down next to me. Does this mean we' re a couple now? He kisses me good bye and I jump the gap again.

A Month Later

Do you want to go to the beach today Starke?

"Yeah, sure. I was wondering if you would call back."

Sorry, after study Monday I felt sick.

"That's alright. I was finishing my chores, so I wouldn't have picked up."

Is tomorrow okay? I' m still worried about my night terror.

"What was it about?"

It was about you.

"Me?"

Yeah, you...

"Hello?"

Starke's POV

"Hello?"

What happened? I look out the window and see Alex on her bed. She is laying on her side and looks breathless.

I jump the gap and yank open the door. She lies still on the bed but she is breathing.

ALEX!

She opens her eyes and looks up at me.

You scared me to death!

"I don't know what to say. I was thinking about the night terror, and it all came back into my head and all I could see was you...dead. You were laying on the ground and there was blood and banging in my head. I ran to your side, but..."

I catch Alex before she falls again, but she lay unconcious in my arms. Before thinking I called for my mom. She was home, but would she have heard me? My mom rushed to the edge of the balcony. She jumped. She asked what had happened and I said that I called her about tutoring and she just faded out. So, I came over here and sat her up and she said I was dead in her night terror...and then she fell into my arms. Get it? I left and my mom called 911 and looked all over her. Bite marks, I didn't notice those there before!...
