"What? I asked. I stared at him confused and hurt, I mean it not an everyday thing you see your boyfriend that is tampoul, beings who suck life/soul out of beings most common ones take vampires, and his chained underneth you ex's house! I continue to walk up and throw my new purple jacket over his shoulders since it was cold in here and all he had on were his shorts which were old and torn. "What happened? Tell me." I begged holding his face as he stared at me with brown eyes that held so much pain and sorrow that it made me want to cry and hold him close. "You had to get sick?"
He shook his head and tried to look down, he was so weak he couldn't figh me! "Why are you here giving me your jacket after what I have done to you?" He looked at me like I was telling him I am a guy or something, but didn't fit me when I ajusted the jacket on him. The jacket was just big enough, I love my jackets being way to big it alows me to hide.
"Well, I can't just leave you because of what you did. You apoligize and I forgive you which to most I shouldn't which they might be right but I don't care. Now tell me what you had to do? Please." I said bringing his face close to where I could feel his breath on my face but I didn't care I wanted Shane as close as possible. He looked at me in the eye then at my lips as if he was worried I would kiss him.
He wet his lips and started, "I am a tampoul so I feed off of souls. Well," he said as his eyes teared up. "I had to taste your soul in order to protect you." he rushed out the last part as tears flowed out of his eyes onto my hands and dripped off my wrists onto my knees. I leaned in and hugged him real close letting him know it was ok and I wasn't going to let anything happen to him.
"Is it like a vampire and a human? A vampire drinks a humans blood and now no other vampire can drink that humans blood." I asked whispering and felt him nod so I pulled back. I sat up against the wall next to him and he stayed next to me with his not long but not short chains hanging about two feet up the wall and the ones attached his ankels were shorter like the ones you see in movies alot cling as he slide to the wall.
I looked at him and could tell he was tired so I pulled his head onto my lap so he was looking up but not straight up at me then I ran my fingers through his hair. "Then why are you here and why are you in this condition?"
"They don't believe me nor do they want to because I made you two break up. Though I had no intentions of doing so. Though I can't blame them. Vampires and Tampouls have been sworn rivals for awhile, but they need to understand just like some vampires don't like drinking blood some tampouls don't like drinking souls." he stated weakly looking at the ceiling with his droopy eyes, "they all went out looking for you though. The little girl with blueish hair, I think her name is Candy, was balling saying she felt so bad for saying those things. I don't know what though." he sighed with his eyes finally closeing.
"She said some mean things to me and I lost my temper so I left the house to cool my head." I replied and watched him slowly drift to sleep. Now I know alot of people are thinking what am I doing?! Well I can tell if people are lieing or telling the truth so I know he is telling the truth and I wasn't going to let some stupid rumor ruin my relationship with Shane he is still a friend!
About an hour or so later the door shut and scuffling was heard making Shane jump up and on edge. I felt bad for him and began to wonder what were they doing to him. I pulled his head back to where it was and told him it would be ok, I will protect him. Just after I said that someone began to walk down the stairs.
"Alright, Tramp-oul. Is there a side effect for your meal leaving?" said a voice that scared me to my bones, Ashton's and worst of all, he seemed to enjoy it! He was wearing boots and from the sound of the echos they were heavy. Shane sat up and pushed me behind him getting very tense before I could even protest. Ashton continued to talk, "cause I don't have all the time in the world to look for my ex that you so kindly stole. So where is sh-?" he stopped not finishing as he stood frozen at the doorway of the cell looking past Shane and at me who sat staring right back at him. "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE GONNA DO-"
I jumped infront of Shane and locked my leg with Ashton's aimed leg. "He did nothing! I walked in and stayed with him! You are the one that nees to explain!" I spun around making Ashton fall down looking at me shocked. "Look Shane is a tampoul I know that! But what is so different from Vampires and Tampouls? You both feed off of humans! The real question is WHY is Shane in the basement and why are you wearing your boots?" I shouted at Ashoton who sat firmly on the floor staring at my face that was only six inches away from his as I bent down staring at his face. "I thought you were someone better."
"Don't listen to what he says!" Ashton shouted back, "think about it he nearly killed you!"
"Yeah well half the time I was with you I WAS nearly killed! And what does that justicife it just makes you worst! You are a hypocrit! And all he told me was the truth! Tampouls AND Vampires are related you just eat different things of the human!" I shouted back into his face with tears building up in my eyes.
Ashton stared back at me but before he could talk Drevan came and pulled Ashton back then glared at me. "How can you say that so sure?"
Soon everyone was in the room and I began to feel out numbered as if they didn't believe me and think I was being an obsesed girlfriend. I began to back up only to feel a hand on the crook of my neck, Shane's spot. I look back and see him shake his head and said, "just listen to them. You will be better off."
I instantly got mad and felt the tears begin to flow. "You are gonna let him bully you?! What happen to the big tough guy who protected his girlfriend from a bunch of jerks? That was you! You might be in chains but your words aren't!!! Don't listen to their bull, cause I believe you!" I turn to the vampires and my family, "just like vampires tampouls make their humans which means that human is hands off! Why is that so hard for you guy to understand!?!" I bawled and fell onto my knees with my hands holding my face.
"Told ya." said a voice that belong to Kendall, "Shane just marked her to protect her from anyother tampouls." I heard footsteps walk and end right in front of me. I look up to see Kendall smiling at me, "if they even think about hurting Shane or making you get out of the way they will take me on k?" I smiled and nodded.
"Not to rain on your pride but how can you take on a family of vampires?" Shane asked raising his eyebrows.
Kendall raised an eyebrow and smirked, "you guys would be surprised at what I can do."
"What is going on? Why is Shane chained and hurt?" asked Rea walking into the room innocently.
I turn to the adults, "good question, WHY is Shane here?"
Everyone shifted uncertian from one foot to another. "We were mad at what Shane did to you Carlynda. It was evil and wrong!" said Mom clutching her chest.
"Oh but hiding what I am is ok?! That isn't evil?! That isn't wrong?! Letting me go off into the world with the ablity and risk of killing someone is ok?!" I stood up yelling at her making Rea cling to Dad's leg and everyone else stand back. "See?! Even friends and my own family back away except these two!" I point to Shane and Kendall. "They are the only ones who aren't related to me or haven't known me as long as all of you! Ashton has known me since what 8th no 7th grade?! Along with his family and you guys have known me since what I don't know since BIRTH!" I stared to cry again. "God I cry all the time now! I should just leave because if I don't your house is gonna be flooded!" I said as Kendall pulled me into his chest allowing me to cry onto his shoulder.
As I cried I felt a tug on my leg and I look down to see Rea looking at me with tears trying to smile. "Don't cry. You eyes need to stop rain." Rea chocked out and hugged my leg begining to cry uncontrolably. I ran my fingers through her hair as she ran her tears ran down my legs.
There was an awkward silence between everyone. It was like a tear was now forming between us, but what was going to become of us I do not know nor, by the looks of if, I don't want to.
