After talking to Josh at lunch and a smile from Hannah I was feeling happy. And plus the dirty looks from people had died down. People started to believe I was not a murderer, which I found was a big plus. I made my way out of the school, through the big glass doors to the parking lot and from a distance I could see a person standing next to my car. I walked slowly to my car and as soon as I realised the person standing there was Sarah, I ran to her. As always she look beautiful. Her eyes looked lighter though, red eyes.

"Hey!" I said while out of breath

"Hi" she said sounding worried

"You want a lift?" I said smiling like an idiot, just to be with her

She got in the car quickly, very quickly. As soon as I got in she had her seat belt on and was ready to go. I asked her if she was staying at my house that night and she confirmed.

"You seem...worried" 

I started the engines and drove out the lot, heading for my house.

"Nothing, it's just...I don't like being in that parking lot" 

"urm...Okay?" I said confused

"I need to tell you something..."

"What?"

"Do you remember when you were a kid and there was a a teenage girl missing in Seattle. Her name was Linda Gibbson?"

"Yeah, not very well but I remember my mom always talking about it with my dad. They never found the body right?"

"Yeah..."

I interrupted her before she could say anything else.

"You didn't...kill her did you?"

"No Jake, that was me" 

I was shocked with the thought that she was the girl the news obsessed over for months, years!

"W- what!?" I said completely confused

"I was walking home from school, a man drove up besides me and started to talk to me. I was only a kid and I replied to his questions. At one point another man came out from the car and grabbed my arm. They pulled me in and kept me in the back seat. I would have been safe but no one was about as I always took a shortcut. My kept me there for days, I was without water, food and hardly any air. But after three days of being trapped they got me out. They took me to one of the buildings on the pier. They kicked me to the ground and made me start to bleed. I could not shout as I was tapped up. They cut me, kicked and punched. Then when I felt half dead they took turns raping me. They then left me almost dead in the dark, damp warehouse. I felt as if a I could not use my legs or arms. The pain was excruciating and I felt like it was the end. Until I heard voices coming to me, I seen two people walk towards me. A man and a women. They looked down on me and started talking. I had nothing to do than lay there. The men came down to my face and bit my neck. I felt his teeth sink into my neck. I felt like a was just hanging onto life, like my hand was slipping and I was about to let go. I felt an energy flow through my body. It was extremely painful. But then, I felt I had both hands gripping on to life, then I became stronger and felt more alive. I then fell asleep. When I woke up I was greeted by two people, Drake and Faye. They told me what they done the change to me and they told me what I was. They explained what abilities I had and how I was to use them. Then Drake told me that we must not be known by any human. After that we moved to Canada. And like what he did to me he turned more people into vampires. Ryan when he was dying and Charlie was just someone Drake just wanted. We moved back to Seattle a few months back. And Drake told me to change my name. He also reminded me of the rules. So I decided to change it to Sarah. I just wanted to tell you how I became like this. I want you to know everything"

"Sarah, I'm so sorry"

"It's fine. Drake took care of them" 

There was a hint of a smile from Sarah and a inside joke of the Covern I guess. We finally reached my home. We both got out and went to my front door. I opened it and was greeted with my mom cooking and my dad watching the game on ESPN. My dad would have looked up but he would not dare to take his eyes of the t.v. My mom turned around and had an instant huge smile.

"Hey guys!" 

"Hi mom, this is Sarah" 

I looked at my mom and hoped she would not say anything embarrassing. My mom gave Sarah a massive hug.

"Well it's lovely to met you Sarah, this is Jake's dad, Tim" She pointed to my dad

"Tim!" she yelled

"oh! Hi, nice to met you" he said with one eye still on the t.v.

Sarah laughed and I took her to my room. I opened the door and I let her go through first. She sat on the bed.

"Well, that was fun" I said sarcastically

"they seem really nice!" she said enthusiastically

I sat down next to her and we both went back on the bed. She turned towards me and looked into my eyes and I looked into hers. I slowly went to kiss her and she came towards me. Her soft lips moved in sink with mine. I knew at that moment I loved her.

"I love you" I said quickly in case she didn't feel the same

"I love you too" she said before kissing me again

The night was peaceful with Sarah with me. I didn't feel scared of anything, and I knew I would do anything I could to keep her and the rest of the Covern unknown. I knew I never wanted to let her go.
