Beast Within*Kellic*

Chapter Four

"I though I told you to leave Gerard and Frank alone!" Were the first words out of my mouth Friday morning at school.

Kellin looked over at me and smirked. "Why are you sticking up for these losers anyway?"

"Because they're my friends," I stated. "And friends stick up for friends."

"You must be a loser too," he said.

"You think you're so bad, don't you?" I questioned, amused.

"I know I am," he replied, still smirking.

"We'll see about that," I answered. "We'll see soon enough. Now leave. "

"And if I don't?" He chuckled, standing right in front of me.

I smiled at him sweetly before grabbing his collar and lifting him off the ground. It didn't matter that he was taller; I knew I'd always be stronger.

He struggled in my grip as Gerard and Frank laughed in disbelief.

"Shut up, fags! Put me down! What do you do, take steroids?"

My temper flared. "Do not call them fags. There is nothing wrong with being gay."

"Yes there is!"

"Name one thing."

He was silent and I knew I had him. I smirked this time.

"Are you done, or do I have to get the principal?"

He stared at me defiantly. "I'll just tell him that you're harassing me. And I have witnesses!"

"I think you're witnesses are more scared of me than they are of you, Kellin."

His eyes flashed at the sound of his name. "How do you know my name?" He hissed.

I scoffed. "San Diego isn't that big, nimrod."

"Then why don't I know yours?"

"Because you're not very observant," I answered, getting bored and dropping him. "My names Vic, and I'm getting bored. So beat it."

He nodded, leaving almost immediately.

I sighed while I waited around for someone to feed from. I was in a secluded park, so obviously almost no one was around.

I wondered I I should track Kellin down and give him a scare.

It's not like he'll remember anything if I feed from him. And damn, did he smell delicious today. Especially with the fear coursing through his veins...

Okay, I need to stop.

I knew he only smelled so good because in so hungry. I haven't fed properly in weeks, and I felt myself getting weak. Especially since I wasted all that strength scaring Kellin.

Honestly, I'll probably need to feed from two or three people just to get full.

To pass time, I decided you think about Kellin and the dream. Their eyes were the same color...did that mean he was my soul mate? Would we somehow end up together?

I mean, he was cute, but he was straight and homophobic.

But was Kellin even the boy in my dream?

I wish I'd dreamt of hazel brown eyes instead. Like Oli's.

Okay, so I had a crush on Oli Sykes. Was that really so bad?

Maybe it was, considering that there was a good chance that Kellin was the boy in the dreams. But he was such a dick and Oli was so nice...

Oli held my hand to lunch.

I mushed just thinking about it. Hopefully that meant that he'd say yes if I asked him out.

Finally, fucking finally, someone jogged by. I quickly grabbed them and sank my teeth into their neck, feeding quickly.

When I decided that I had taken enough from this one, I let him go. I recognized him from school, but no biggie.

The second came easily, and I fed from her. Just one more pint, one more person.

The third one after about ten minutes and I wasted no time in biting her neck. When I was done feeding, I heard a gasp and made the mistake of looking over with my black eyes.

It was Kellin.
