In Trouble [hiatus]

Chapter 19 // I'm a vampire.

"Cupcake..." He breathes slowly, a faint smile appearing on his cracked lips.

And at that moment my friends, a rebellious tear strolled down my cheek. "Iz-Izzy.." I barely say in a whisper. I make my towards him quickly.

Mr. and Mrs.Ryder were standing beside him, his dad gave me a nod with a smile and his mom just throws her arms around me and hugs me tightly. I could barely breath, she was nearly choking me but I couldn't care less if was able to breathe or not. Her motherly embrace calmed me down a bit, but then I heard a sob escape from her lips. I rub my hands over her back soothingly. "Its okay....he's going to be perfectly alright Mrs.Ryder." I assured her unsure.

I lied...I don't even know if he's gonna be okay or not. But that was the only thing I could do to soothe a sniffling mother. Great just what we needed, two sobbing women. She lets go of me and Mr.Ryder immediately wraps his arms around his wife. "Um..." He clears his throat. "You kids can talk alone, we'll leave now to give you some privacy." He announces, with his wife in his arms. He give Izek a look and he nods back at him reassuringly and straightens himself in a sitting position. Wait what? Was that supposed to be some kind of secret father -son mind conversation or something?

Oh my goodness.

Is Izek a werewolf? Did they just mind link or something? Is that what he's been hiding from me? If he is, that'd be super sexy.

Okay I've gotta tone down on the werewolf stuff I've been watching and reading lately. Teen Wolf, you're one the main reasons for this weird behavior.

And they stepped out the room, leaving us both alone.

I turned myself away from Izek, not wanting to face him. I bite my lip to stop me from bursting into tears...is it normal to be this worried about someone? Because I can't even barely breathe right now when he's just next to me, injured.

He whispers, "Cupcake..." He wraps his palm around my wrist which in turn shot tingles up my spine and erupted numerous butterflies in my tummy, heck they felt like freaking elephants! "Look at me...please.." He whispers once again in a pained voice. I close my eyes and shake my head. "No. No, Izek. I can't."

"Wh-why..?" He chokes out. I swallow a lump in my throat, "Because seeing you like this...seeing you hurt..it breaks me...." I manage to answer.

SHIT. WHAT THE HELL DID I DO?! I just nearly confessed my feelings. He's gonna think I'm a freaking weirdo now.

But he didn't.

Instead, he locked our fingers together tightly. And that made me look down at our clasped fingers and I glanced at Izek, slowly.

Ouch. He must be in a lot of pain.

"I-I..um..ho-how ar-" He tugs at my hands with a strong pull and I fall onto the bed, more precisely-on top of him. My eyes widened in shock at our position. He wraps his hand around my waist in a tight and secure hug and I-once again-felt safe and protected by his hug. "And it breaks me when you don't look at me. " He whispers, causing sparks to ignite at his touch.

I didn't hug him back though.

My hands stay still beside his body, but I felt the warmth of his embrace pleasuring me. Izek's body suddenly stiffens, "Why aren't you hugging me back, woman?" He chuckles softly, but I sensed the hurt in his stressed voice. Crap...I gave out the wrong message. Its not that I didn't want to hug him.
