vampire next door

chapter twenty-nine

     Callidoras POV
I slam my door shut and rest my back on the door.  Tears trailed down my face.  It was filled with anger, sadness and betrayal.

I still couldn't believe Eva died.  She's was such a jovial and good person.  She was like a sister to me.

I went into my room and threw myself on the bed while taking a small picture of Eva and I which rested on my table.  We had traveled to Hawaii for the holidays.

I clutched the picture on my chest and cried harder.  I can't take it.  I just can't.

"Cally... Please listen to me" I hear a voice behind me.

I turned around quickly to meet Clemente looking at me.  He looked pale and weak.

"how did you get in" I asked surprised.

He glanced towards the window and I understood what he meant.

"what do you want" I asked angrily jumping up from my bed.

"I'm sorry" he said quietly running his hands through his hair.

"you lied to me.... Everything was a lie." I said my voice shaking

"I will never hurt you.  Believe me" he said tiredly.

"i know Eva died and you are really hurt but it's not my fault " he said again.

"but you lied,  it doesn't justify your action" I say raising my voice at him.

"don't tell anyone, please,  we live in secret.  No one must know about us" he said coming close to me.

"stop.... Don't come" I say shutting my eyes.

"don't say it " I hear and open my eyes but Clemente wasn't there.

I laid back on the bed while staring at the ceiling.

I lost my best friend
I lost my friends
I lost my love.

I didn't know how and when but I slept off.

Clemente's POV

I stood in front of my door and  turned around to look at callys house.  It was official

I've lost her.

"I'm so sorry " Adrian said walking towards me with his hands in his pocket.

"I should have listened to you" I sighed sitting on the floor.

"it's not your fault,  it would have still turned like this either way" he said sitting beside me.

"you are so lucky" I smiled referring to he and Miranda.

"I like her... No, I think I love her" he smiled cheekily to himself.

"I have to go inside " I say getting up and walking inside.

Callidoras POV

I sighed heavily feeling the warm water trickle down my skin.  I felt tired and sick but I have to attend my best friends funeral.

I put my hair in a side bun and put on a black gown and reached my knee.  I remember when eva shopped it for me because she thought it would suit me.

I take a small purse and wear my sandals. without any makeup, I walked outside.

"hi" Miranda's shrill voice came from outside.  Her hair was packed the same way mine was. Her gown was an inch above her knee.

"wanna go together " she asks smiling at me.
