Bloodlust → Stefan Salvatore [1]

Lost Girls

Above you'll see an image of Caroline Forbes

     I walk up the stairs, I've heard noises all night. "Elena?" I hear something zoom by, I cautiously walk down the stairs. "Elena? Jeremy? Jenna?" I feel someone breathing on the back of my neck. "They're all dead..." I turn around, Stefan has blood all over his mouth. I gasp as he digs into my throat. I gasp for air as I fly up out of bed. It was only a dream.

     I'm starting to suspect Damon and Stefan, are not human. Stefan was alive in 1953, which would mean he's just about 56 years old, but he's in high school. I should confront him.

     "Elena???" She grunts.
      "Blake, it's early what are you doing?"
      "Tell Jenna I'm going out to meet Caroline for some study session."
      "Whatever..." She rolled over and falls back asleep. I walk down the stairs and out the door. The truth is, I'm not going to meet with Caroline, I'm sneaking into Stefan's, hopefully I get some things explained.

     I open his door without knocking. There's music blasting. I turn the corner to see Damon running around with Vikki, he turns to me, and out of nowhere he's just right in my face, like he has super speed abilities. "You..." His eyes change like Stefan's did. Then everything went dark.

      "Ugh, get up so dramatic. I didn't even drain that much blood. Your lucky I didn't kill you." I slowly open my eyes, there's blood on Damons mouth.
      "Oh, sorry. How rude." He uses his thumb to wipe it off. I feel my neck, there's marks on it. It's bleeding, bad, and it stings.
      "What did you do to me?" He smirks.
      "I bit you," my eyes widen and my jaws drop. "and let me tell you, Blake. You are one tasty man." I look over at Vikki. She's dancing, then a slow song comes on. "May I have this dance?" Damon asks, they begin dancing, almost in motion with the beat of the song. He grabs her neck, and quickly snaps it. My jaw drops as I cover my mouth with my hands. He body falls to the ground.
"Vikki?" I run over to her body.
"Oh, she's fine, she ha Amy blood in her system, she'll wake up like me." I look up at him.
"A psychopath?" He laughs.
"Not quite... a vampire." I get up and turn around to run, he sin front of me now.
"Unless you want to end up like her, I suggest you sit down." I do as he says.

Hours later Vikki wakes up. She looks around, dazed.
"What happened?"
"Oh, you know. You fell, hit your head, died, woke up a vampire." I look over at a glass of bourbon on the table. I pick it up and smash it over his head. I grab my phone and run down the stairs, I file on Stefan's number.
"Hey, Blake. What's up."
"Stefan, Damon is chasing me through your house. He bit me, and he snapped Vikki Donovan's neck, but she woke up, and-
Damon appears in front of me. He grabs my phone.
"I see your gonna be and issue. He grabs me and begins biting me again. I try to push him away, but all I feel is the blood leaving my body. My eyes begin to close but a rush of air comes through and pushes Damon away, and grabs me. It's Stefan. I look up at him.
"What the hell are you?" I begin feeling my head get very heavy, I close my eyes, knowing that my time was here.

I wake up in my bed. How did I get here? I feel my neck, the injuries gone.
"I healed you." A voice says. It's Stefan. I look at him scared.
"Stay away from me." He gets up.
"Blake, it's not what you think. Today I saved you from Damon. I'm trying to protect you." I look him deep in the eyes.
"Tell me the truth. What are you?"
"Blake..."
"WHAT ARE YOU???" I scream.
"I'm... I'm a vampire." I begin to start breathing heavily.
"Blake, I would never hurt you. I'm sorry for what Damon did." I take a deep breath.
"Tell me... about vampires."
"Okay, as you wish. Vampires have been around for ages. No one is sure how we originated, but we did. To become a vampire, you have to die with vampire blood in your system. Our blood is used to heal anyone of anything, and we are killed with wooden stakes. We are also no friend to vervain."
"The herb?"
"Yes, the herb. We can also compel people to tell us whatever we want and do whatever we want. Damons attacked you before, that's why I gave you that compulsion ring," he's attacked me before? "with that no one can compel you, and if someone's on vervain, the can compel or feed off them. We can also run faster than the average human."
"So, what else? Is that it?"
"As a vampire, everything is heightened. Senses, emotions. But there's a way you can get rid of them. We call it flipping the switch. Doing that turns your emotions off, you don't feel anything. Some people it's easy for them to come back, others... not so much."

The room fills with an eerie awkward silence. "Does knowing this put me in danger." He sighs.
"Yes, but I'll get you some vervain, you and Elena."
"Does she know?"
"She found out last night." I take a deep breath.
"I need you to go."
"Blake..."
"Just get out." I close my eyes, and when I open them... he's gone.
