Cold Blooded

20. 😧

Mariyah pov
I woke up from a long nap with myself being alone in the hotel room. I sit up, and turn on the lamp. I feel awfully different. And I don't like it. I feel for my teeth, and they were gone. I grew alert. "What the fuck."

I jump up, and walk towards a mirror. My teeth were gone, and my eyes were regularly brown.

What the fuck.

"I know one of y'all hear me!" I yell.

I feel someone tap my shoulder, and I turn around to see Ayo. I grew alarmed. "What is wrong with myself. I don't have no teeth, or n-"

"You're a human again." He cut me off.

"Why?"

"You needed to be. It wasn't good for your environment. You needed to be because you would've been in danger if you haven't because your death was planned." He explained.

My eyebrows furrowed. "What?"

"You could revive someone who's died less than ten years ago. Vampire wise too. You couldn't be one anymore because Mateo is already in deep shit."

I feel myself begin to cry. "I wanted to be one."

He shook his head. "I'm sorry Riyah."

"No the fuck you're not!"

I look up, and he was gone.

I rapidly put on my sneakers, and a cardigan. I run downstairs and out of the hotel.

Why?

I just wanted to not be casually alive anymore.

It's not fair.

I fold my arms since it was quite chilly outside. I turn the block, and end up bumping into someone. I nearly fall, but was grabbed. I look to see this boy with vibrant bluish green eyes. Even though it was late night, his eyes still had flamboyance. It however didn't look normal. Contacts preferably?

"Sorry." He mumbled.

"It's ok. I'm sorry. I didn't know where I was going."

I begin to walk, but was stopped with him calling me.

"Wait."

I turned around. "What?"

"W-what's your name?"

"Mariyah. Yours?" I ask shyly.

"Marcus. Where you headed? You seem rushed."

I blow a raspberry. "I just needed a walk. I was going somewhere to just think."

He smirked. "You're very beautiful."

I feel myself beginning to blush, so I decided to look down. "Is that your real eye color?"

He nodded. "Uh huh. Why? You like it?"

"It's different." I say. I look back up at him, and into his eyes. They're so beautiful but I've never seen eyes like that before.

"Ion mean to be too into your buisness but do you wanna talk about what's on your mind?"

I shake my head. "It's too personal."

"I won't tell a soul." He vowed.

I do need someone to talk to. Besides the people in the situation. I'm not even a vampire anymore. Ugh. Just think a bout it makes me angry. And, he won't tell anyone. I just won't mention them as vampires.

I nodded. "Alright. Can we go to where I was going through?"

He nodded. "Sure."

We began walking together silently, but it wasn't awkward. We walked towards a park. It was empty, and dark dark in the distance as well since it feels like 1am. The only lights there are is the bright path lights. We sat down on a bench.

I sat back. "Well, um there's boys." I started.

He nodded. "Ok,"

"I wanted something that I've wanted for a while, and there's boy who I love, and he loves me back. We aren't together though. We act like it. He gave what I wanted to me. And I was so happy with the specific thing that I had. And now, it was taken away from me. Without my permission, or myself being notified. It was just gone. And the boys are gone. They're probably just out for the night, and the boy who I love, I haven't seen him since yesterday, when I went to sleep at 8."

He nodded. "What was the special something?"

"A life. Just a life. A life that would make me be happier and more kinder than I am now."

He nodded. "That happened to me before. I could relate."

"It just really affected me. But shit." I hid my sadness with a smile.

He smiled. I looked at him, and realized he had razor sharp teeth. I grew nervous, and quickly got up. "I-I have to go."

He stood up as well. I began to quickly walk away, but was unfortunately stopped with him grabbing my arm. He pulled me into a kiss. I quickly pulled away, and shoved him. "Move! I don't know where your fucking have been! I don't even know you! You creep!" I wipe my lips.

He smiled, and licked his teeth. Seeing that caused for my mood to change into fear.

"Now I have your scent. Tell Mateo I said hi." He laughed. I broke into a run. I looked back to see him gone.

Oh no. What have I done. He knows Teo!?

"Mateo!" I yell. "I know you hear me!"

Tears fell down my cheeks.

I wipe my tears, and look up. I look around, and suddenly see Mateo across the street. He stared at me with his eyes dark. I feel a brutal pain in my head again. I grab my head, and nearly fall. I groan.

Just stay away from me .

The pain in my head then slowly faded away. I looked up from my hands, and looked around. I wiped my tears, and got up from the ground. Mateo was gone.

Did I hurt him? Or did he hurt me?
