"So, are you going to give me a reason for this?"

"No" I said coldly, covering my nose so I can't smell her.

"So you're just going to give me a hickey, without giving me a proper reason?" Lemonade tells me, her voice getting louder.

"I don't know" I say, as I look down to the floor. Some students stopped and encircled us, snooping on our conversation and making me feel really uncomfortable. I thought of the people that threatened to take my life. I covered my face and sat on the floor, on the verge of tears since this day brought back a lot of horrid memories. The students whispering grew louder. Many of them were talking about how much of a coward I am for not giving up a reason on why I gave her a mark.

I picked myself off the floor and stared at Lemonade. She stared back at me seriously. She wasn't joking about this. I chuckled and the reaction of Lemonade and the rest of the crowd was priceless.

"I did what I did because I like her." I lie, trying to cover up what I truly am "she's really cute" I continue with a smirk. Lemonade's cheeks lit up a bright pink tint. A group of guys cussed under their breath, they were clearly into her. I bit my lip and tried to act confident.

"I was hoping that I can easily make her fall in love with me and if I can't achieve that. I guess I'm going to have let her go." I wink at her and she hid her face with her sleeve. She tried to cover up her blush.

The girls fangirled over me, some boys wanted to be as confident as I was while other boys wanted to kill me for stealing their crush. I walked away like a badass would walk away from an explosion. I felt like a boss until, a couple of guys forcefully grabbed my arms and held me there. I struggled to get out of their clutches.

"You think you could just take Ashley away from me like that? You really think she'll like someone as pathetic as yourself?" Mr.Coolguy said as he punched me in the gut, making me feel super nauseous. I coughed roughly and stared up at him.

"I didn't mean for any of this to happen. I swear." I say as each of the guys from the group took turns pummeling me to death. If they do anything serious, for example, cut me they will figure out I'm actually a vampire or a monster that has magical healing abilities. I closed my eyes and made my body go limp so they think I'm unconscious.

"You're not really hurt. You can stop faking." Mr.CoolGuy says as his friend punches me in the face. I endure the pain so I can keep up the act.

"Jay, I think he's actually unconscious. No matter how hard I punch him, he just won't move or open his eyes." One of the guys say, actually concerned about me. Jay looked at his friends and laughed.

"You guys are idiots. Don't you know? He's a vampire. We shouldn't have any concerns because they don't have the same powers they did back in the day." Jay says as he pulls out a knife.

I still pretended to be hurt. Maybe he's playing a game to see if I react the way he wants me to. Believe me it won't work.

Suddenly, I gasped as a sharp pain awoke in my side. Jay actually stabbed me. His friends let go of me and I fell to the floor, still kind of in the act. I felt disoriented and sick to my stomach. It was probably because I didn't eat my meal and I was losing lots of blood, so the result is semi-good. The bright side of this situation is now the group of boys don't have any evidence that I am a vampire. The downside is I might bleed out and die. I can't regenerate. The guys noticed I wouldn't get up so they panicked.

"Do I call 911 or should we just run for the hills outta this place?" A guy said, pulling out his phone.

"I think we should run! Damn it Jay, you said that vampires regenerate. Didn't you?" A worried teen said, panicking.

"I didn't say they could but I read online that vampires regenerate. I don't know why this one won't." Jay says trying to figure out why I won't regenerate.

I laid there waiting for the inevitable to happen. It feels so much like deja vu right now. Maybe because in my dream a boy tried to stab me with a stake. Well this time, a boy stabbed me with a knife. No one will save a monster like me. Of course no human has remorse for a vampire like me.

Wait.

Never mind,

I spoke too soon...
