Love is a strong word

chapter 6

Nikoles Pov.

"Oh my god... What are you!?" I yell.

"No no no. This can't be happening!" The dark figure yells.

"Who are you?" I say again.

The dark figure steps out of the light. "Blake?" I say. I feel my heart start to break.

"Nikole.. I'm so sorry Dallas.. You need to feed Nikole."

"I need to do what?" I can't believe what I'm hearing!

"Feed. You need human blood in your system so you can live." He says. He so calm. Does he not understand? "Blake you obviously don't know me. I'm not going to be a vampire no matter what!"

I yell in his face. "Nikole, I know this is a lot to take in.. But--" he got cut off when a girl walked into the abandon warehouse.

"Oh my god. NIKOLE! What did you do to her? I swear I could kill you right now! You hurt my bestfriend. What the hell is wrong with you? Wait- no don't answer that your fricken crazy!" Says Alex yelling. She ran over to be and untied my hands. I finally felt relief. Alex put her arms around me and hugged me tight. I felt this hunger rush threw my body my mouth.. Right up against her neck. "I'm so hungry.." I say very quietly and open my mouth. I bit her draining blood out of her body as time went by. I pushed harder on her making more blood go into my mouth.

I heard Blake yell. "NO NIKOLE!" Than I felt and huge push across my body and I fell to the ground. I wave of guilt flushed over my body. "Oh my god.. ALEX!" I look at Blake and he's already bit his wrist so blood with come out. And he put it to Alex's lip and made her drink it. The two gaping holes in her neck finally closed together healing.

"Alex. Oh my god. I'm going to hell." I saw her eyes flicker to me and she opened her mouth but no words came out. "Nikole, I know what you must be going threw right now." I looked away from Alex and looked at Blake, "I hurt her.. I almost KILLED HER! Blake what's wrong with me?" I start crying. I ran up to him wrapping him in a hug. "It's going to be okay." He said holding me. "I promise."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alex's Pov.

I don't really remember much, besides the fact I saw her. Nikole standing there sucking the life out of me. I felt every drop of blood leave my body as I feel to the ground. I remember drinking Blake's blood, it healed me. But how?

I fluttered my eyes open. I saw to amber eyes staring back down at me. My heart started to race. Nikole. She had a new ring on her finger. She was standing in the sun looking down on me. "Alex.." She started to say. "No Nikole, don't." I scooted away from her.

"Look.." She started again. "I know your scared of me, if I saw me. I would be scared to. But, Alex I promise I will never hurt you again." I saw a tear roll down her perfect skin. "Oh Nikole! I'm not mad at you! I'm scared! Your a vampire now, so is Blake I don't know how this is possible." I say shuddering at the word 'vampire'.

She smiled the biggest smile I've ever seen. She hugged me wrapping her arms around my waist. "Nikole.." I say looking at her face. "I need some time.. Away from all this. It's crazy!" I say. "I know what you mean Alex but, you can't tell anyone about me or Blake, even Dallas! We could all get killed. One stake in the heart and I'm dead, gone forever." I shook my head. "Even though your a vampire I'm not letting you die. Your still my bestfriend." I smiled at her.

"I'll answer any questions you have. Blake told me everything while you were sleeping." She says calmly her eyes soft.

"Okay, how do you walk in the sun?"

"This ring. It protects me from the sun hurting me."

"Do you sparkle?"

"No. Myth."

"Than what do you do?"

"Burn, catch on fire."

"Mirrors?"

"Fake."

"Running?"

She laughed. "Very fast!" She said.

"Show me!" I said jumping off the couch. She grabbed my wrist threw me on her back with extreme strength. "Strength too I see?"

"Yes." She took off as fast as I've ever seen. This might not be to bad. I think.
