Just Another Vampire Story

Bump On The Road

                               

 I squinted at the darkness before me. I cannot make out the man's features yet.

 Whatever, I breathed and continued walking ignoring the presence of this figure.

 I felt strange. Something is playing its way through my head and trying to make me scream. This is too confusing. Ugh, I need sleep. I rubbed my temple and leaned against some building.

 What is wrong with me? I know what I need right now, and I can't even get some of it. I can't fucking get the sleep I deserve! It read 2 a.m. on my phone. I pushed myself off the wall and began walking back to the roadhouse.

 I have never had a problem concerning my abnormality. I have never thought that I would be forced to let my secret out. Wait...do I have to tell them about my secret? Is it really going to make me feel better?

 But if I am not supposed to give it out, then why is that dream haunting me? Is it some kind of warning? Or is it just a distant memory of someone else? I huffed. All these questions...

 I ran my hand through my hair. This walk was meant to clear my head, not to generate more questions.

 I feel weirder now. There is definitely something going on here. I looked over my shoulder and searched the scene behind me. There is no sign of the man I saw two minutes ago. I ignored it and continued pacing forward.

 A sudden gush of wind hit me and something smashed on my back. No, it was not just any something. It was my own back smashing against some wall. My eyes widened at the speed of the thing that knocked me away. I looked at that thing, and saw absolutely nothing but a man.

 Shit! This is the same guy. My breathing started quickening, and I began panicking. Shit. Why the fuck do I feel so weak? I am not weak. He held my shoulder and pinned them to the wall. I tried to wiggle out of his grip. But he just smirked at me.

 SHIT!

 What the hell did I do to get this fucked up day? I struggled to get hold his hands and push him away, but he breathed out a deep low laugh then grabbed my hands and pressed them up on the wall....I breathed deep and swallowed hard. I tried to calm myself and think of a way to get out of this alarming situation.

 I made an attempt of kicking him in the balls...but he was frighteningly fast and moved away, then he stepped on my feet and gave out another menacing laugh. Ugh! Why?

 I am not going to cry. Not from this creature. Clearly, he is no human.

 He held both of my wrists in one hand and hovered over my hair and face with the other. I was really getting scared now; I can't find my strength to fight him off, and I can't find my voice. And on top of it all, the streets were vividly empty and no one would notice a girl getting attacked.

 I blinked. No, I will not let him touch me. I looked at him closely as if to search any kindness in his soul. Fuck! He just smirked and licked his lips.

 He came to a very uncomfortable closeness that his nose almost touched my cheek. I held in a breathe. He caressed my cold cheek with his freaking frozen nose. I hissed, "get the fuck off of me." My voice finally found its way out, yet it came out very pitchy and shaky.

 He just laughed at me and remained grazing his nose along my chin and went down till it reached my neck, then he swallowed his stupid spit and breathed on my collar.

 And the question just broke through my scrambled thoughts. Is he a vampire? Is he like me?

 Bitch, did I have to ask myself that now? Just concentrate on how you are going to run away!

 He looked up at me with a smug smile and held up my face then looked into my eyes and breathed, "just relax." As if I was some crying baby and he was trying to pacify me. But that just got on my nerve, nothing more.

 Unwillingly, I growled and shook my head out of his grip, but still, my hands and feet were restrained. I still can't get away, so I bit his hand...hard.

 He growled pulling his hand out of my mouth and took a step back. That gave me the freedom to run, so I shoved him off a little further and started running.

 My hair was almost pulled out of my scalp. He pulled me back and slammed me hard against the wall. I almost heard a crack there. My head bounced off the wall from the impact. And I felt blood splashing on the inside end of my tongue. SHIT!

 I fell to the ground and coughed the blood. He pulled me up by the hair and pinned me to the wall, again. "Fight me off all you want, love, but you won't get away from under me." He whispered.

 "You are mine."

 I stared at him. Obviously, I cannot fight him off. He is just too strong, much stronger than me. He pressed himself onto me and stuck his stinking nose again on my neck and sniffed. I wanted to scream so bad but my I lost my voice.

 All that was in my eye sight was his ear and hair, other than that was a wall in front of me. Now I noticed that we were in some alley. I squeezed my eyes shut wanting to teleport or anything that would get me out of here.

 Suddenly a flash of Troy's face crossed my mind. I screamed in my head.

 Troy!! If you're awake please...I groaned; a small tingly feeling lingered at the back of my head. Troy, help me. Please.

 I felt a shot of a stinging feeling growing its way on my neck. I gasped. Fuck! The soreness increased badly. My eyes squeezed shut. I have never felt such pain before! I can't take it anymore. And that is when I let out the scream. His hand muffled me down. I squirmed and shook hard. I screamed at his hand and used every string of energy that I had to make him go crazy. I wanted to move around all the time to irritate him. That way, I would have a chance to run away.

 "Stay still." He snapped and shoved my head against the wall. And this time, a light flashed in my eyes and everything hazed in front of me. I yelped and then my whole body stopped resisting. I felt a hand traveling down from my neck to my waist.

 And now...I just want to die. That would be much better than getting raped.

 I heard something crack, and then a growl. The man let go of me getting me to fall to the hard ground. I tried to see what was happening but everything was dark in front of me. I am officially blind. There was lots of feet shuffling and growling.

 I took a deep breathe and closed my eyes; clearly, they are not of an assistance anymore. I laid my head down and gave up.

 "Ru..." I heard someone in the distance.

 "Ruby, wake up. Come on, now." I can't see who it is. I can't even move my eyelids anymore, and my whole body was paralyzed.

 "Hm..." that is all that could come out of me.

 And now the darkness took over.
