Save Me

T W E N T Y O N E

When we went back into the room where Lily sat she looked somehow more scared than we left her. I sat in front of her and grinned. Channeling the boy that Lauren somehow fell in love with and not the cold hearted vampire I was acting. "Hey Lily" I said. "I made cookies? You want some?"

She bit her lip and my eyes watched her mouth. Stop it! It wasn't Lauren.

She nodded slightly and I smirked "I'll be back in a second"

Standing up, I walked over to the kitchen and opened the cookie jar to see a few stale cookies left at the bottom. "Shit" I cursed. I pulled them out anyway and put them on a plate. I walked back out and handed it to her.

She took it in her hands nervously and slowly picked one up. I tried to hide my disgust as she bit into it. She swallowed it and placed the cookie back on the plate and then the plate on the table politely.

"Sorry" I chuckled and picked the plate up and threw it in the kitchen. It smashed against the tiles and I grinned. "Do you want to do something?" I asked her. 

Crow groaned, bored and left. I chuckled as he slammed the door behind him. Lily shook her head no and I frowned. "Are you tired?"

She nodded and rubbed her eyes. I had completely forgotten that it was the middle of the night. I smiled and lead her to our room. She closed the door behind her and I lay down. "See you then"

She smiled and sat down in the armchair in the corner of the room. She curled up and closed her eyes.

When I woke up, there was an intense pain in my chest. I coughed and tasted coppery blood. Looking down, I saw a large knife sticking from my chest. A note was tied to the handle and I frowned.

I pushed myself up and pulled the blade out wincing. I dropped it beside me and looked at the note.

I laughed as I finished. This note was a spark of hope.

I ran from the room and kicked Crow's door down. He yelped and glared at me as I threw the piece of paper at him. I watched as his eyes scanned the words and a grin grew on his face.

This is what you get. Make shit cookies and I stab you in the chest.

You're probably thinking that it's that bitch Lily talking but guess what fuckers.

You can't get rid of me that easy.

Ciao,
Trouble

"You've got to be fucking kidding me" he laughed.

I nodded "It was attached to a knife that was buried in my chest"

Crow smirked "Sounds like Lauren"

"We still have a chance" I breathed. 

Holy shit. Maybe we could actually do this.
