JT's gorgeous laugh made me burst out in laughter. It was much funnier to me now that I see it. I couldn't believe Deacon almost got laid by Stephanie. Brilliant. I guess little miss goody two shoes finally found her libido. I wanna see what happens next. I bet she wouldn't be able to control herself.

JT and I were laughing and hacking up jokes. I could admit, it wasn't nice to laugh at Stephanie. She would be extra pissed with me if I told her I told JT what happened. I promised her I wouldn't say anything. She should know better by now than to tell me anything personal because of course, according to her, I have a huge mouth.

"Guess what Deacon told me." JT said while in the middle of laughter.

"What?" I giggled.

"He told me that Stephanie was an animal when she jumped him. I told him that he had no idea the kind of animal she was."

We burst out in laughter again. It's hilarious to know that Deacon has no idea that Stephanie's a non-human. The way she described his reaction to the kiss was a sign. It was both weird and interesting to learn she tasted another human's blood for the first time. What she has been drinking was animal blood. I recognized it immediately the day I came over to visit. It's not the same as human blood. It tastes like cardboard.

Human blood has a certain sweet coppery taste like animal blood, but more addicting. The nutrients in human food gives it its kick. I never really drank animal blood before a few days ago. When I was turned a century and a half ago, I drank nothing but human blood. My mom and dad wanted me to be strong.

Stephanie is lame for wanting to be human. She's worse than me in a way. Not only does she drink blood like me in her human form, but when she turns into a wolf, she tears shit to pieces. I run when she get that far in her episodes. She loses her common sense and all hell breaks loose.

JT was laying horizontal next to me. His hand began to caress my thigh. My body shivered and he sensed it. His black hair covered his beautiful indigos as I stared into his chalky and perfectly structured face. His breath was sweet and warm. It flashed across my face while my hand stroked the back of his head. His breathing was quiet compared to mine. I was breathing heavily and uneven every time his hand moved in a circular motion against the middle of my thigh.

"You okay?" his sexy voice was soft and slick.

I shook my head slightly. "Not really."

"What's wrong, babe?" he twirled a piece of my hair around his finger.

"I have a headache." his eyes were wide when I turned my head to look at him.

"Vampires can get headaches?"

"Alive vampires, babe." My gaze was up at the ceiling of my dorm. Man, I have to get someone to paint that yellow spot on the ceiling. It looks trashy.

"I forgot." he mumbled. "You were laughing so much, so I think that's probably why."

"No. It's like a massive headache. Like my brain is about to explode or something."

"Maybe you should see the nurse."

"I can't go down there."

"Why not? She'll help you."

"Have you forgotten that we are vampires? Besides, it's not a normal human headache. It might be something supernatural that even the nurse can't deal with."

He was silent.

My temples began to throb. I immediately sat up. The pain wrapped around my skull. The room was spinning a bit. JT grabbed my hand, looking at my pain filled face. My skull felt like someone was beating it in with a hammer. A small tear peaked from the corner of my eye. I didn't know what else to do at that moment, but scream.
