Silver Bullet

The Beast inside of Me

Get up, get up now, do you know how weak this makes us look. Real weak like really who passes out these days?I hear inside my head. Great now my voices are even telling me how much of a wimp I am.

Excuse me for getting one upd by a rock I tell the voice, but all I get back is silence. Great, even I'm ignoring myself.

I feel heavy, like my insides are filled with cement and slowly it's making my body heavier and heavier.

"Violet, if you can hear me you need to wake up it's been long enough. You're safe and you're home." A kind gentle voice whispers in my ear chipping away the cement enough for me to open my eyes, that's when I see a blurry Colin.

" how long was I out?" I ask Colin concerned and groggy, had it been hours, days, oh my god had it been weeks?!

He moves his hand so he can better see his watch before answering," about 48 hours." He says calmly.

My mind takes a minute to process what he just said," wait I don't think I heard you correctly it sounded like you said I was out for two days?" I look down to see I'm in different clothes then what I was in last night, or two days ago. " And how do I have new clothes on?" I ask raising an eyebrow.

"I just told you you've been out for two days, and the only question you have is how did you get dressed?" He chuckles as I feel a blush starting to form around my cheeks... and then I realize it's been two days.

" Omg! Two days?! What about school! And omg Michelle, why the hell didn't you take me to the hospital?"I say jumping out of bed and crossing my arms. Then my body catches up to the two days of not being able to move and I lose my balance.

" maybe you should sit back down." Colin says putting his hands on my shoulders for support, his hands feel really warm and make the muscles start to relax in my tense arms.

" I've been in bed for two days, I don't wanna sit." I say with a whine.

Quit whining, you already look weak enough. The voice growls.

" Oh shut up." I say out loud in response without thinking.

"What, I didn't say anything." Colin says looking worried. " maybe I should have taken you to a hospital now I just feel foolish you could have really been hurt."

Well you obviously aren't. The voice growls.

"Well obviously I'm stronger than we think." I say matter of factly. My stomach growls. "And I'm hungry since I'm guessing I haven't ate in two days." I shrug his hands off my shoulders and use the wall to help me walk to the kitchen.

****
"So...what happened?" I ask holding a slice of pepperoni pizza in my hands, Colin sits across from me, watching me.

"You passed out in the passenger seat of my car, I being the gentleman that I am brought you home to sleep it off." Colin says looking away from my questioning stare with his arms crossed on his chest, I notice his leg starts twitching.

"So what are you not telling me?" I ask putting my pizza down. " because obviously something is making you nervous."

"I don't know what you're talking about." Colin says making a thin line with his mouth as he continues not to look at me, his leg still twitching.

He actually thinks he can lie to us.

"Really because your leg says other wise?" He stops moving his leg and sits still like a stone," I need to know everything Colin!". I say getting aggravated and standing up to get closer to him.

" Fine. You hit your head, hard and that caused you to pass out." He says slowly getting even closer to me. "And I brought you home changed you out of your bloody clothes, and waited for you to wake up." I feel his breathe on my face and goosebumps start to form on my arms, I feel weak again.

" And that's everything." I say ignoring my hormones for the first time.

" Yes, Violet." He whispers. " that's everything."

My hearts racing, I can feel the blood rushing from my head as it tries to keep up with the steady pace. Then I feel myself moving closer, normally I would stop, I would back away and not go this far, but for some reason I don't. My lips are mere inches from his. The voices are calm there is nothing making me stop, then I look into his eyes, liquid silver meets my bronze brown as the two collide with one another.

" Tell me to stop." I whisper against his lips.

" Why would I do that." He says roughly as his lips meet mine.

Warmth runs through my body as I feel everything in me explode. His lips soft yet determined on mine, connected at a level I cannot even describe never have I felt so much at once.

And then suddenly I open my eyes, I feel hot and not that kinda hot like my body temperature has reached it's max. " You should go." I say weakly trying to push him away with my hands.

"Are you sure that's what you want." He asks still very close to me,to close.

"I feel hot." I say worryingly, as I step back trying to put some kind of distance between us. I look at my hands and see how red they are, then I start shaking. When I look back up I see Colin's face turn blank, then I really start to panic.

" What is it?" I ask terrified at what my body is doing to me from the inside. My body starts to shake uncontrollably.

Time for me to come out and play. The voice laughs wickedly.

Then it all clicks, what's happening to me is the voice insides fault. I turn my head to the side, and look at the mirror in the hall, I see my reflection or what I think is my reflection because the eyes looking back at me, aren't mine but a beasts.
