A Vampire's Desire

Meeting

Cameron: "I'll be there in 15 min. Kk?"

Me: "Cya then."

Cameron: " You won't tell anyone about this will you?"

Me:  "Nope. Wouldn't wanna lower your all ready oversized ego now, would I? "

Cameron:  "I'll cya then Foust."

   I set my phone down and waited for Cameron to arrive patiently. Dad was working late today and Kevin was jamming to ACDC in his room. No problems, thank God! Hopefully he wouldn't hear us.... maybe I should go clarify things with him so he doesn't get the wrong message.

   "HEY KEVIN! CAN I HAVE A FRIEND VISIT FOR A FEW HOURS?"I screamed over his speakers.

   His music cut off.

   "What?!?!"He asked.

   "Can I have a friend over for a few hours?"I repeated grumpily.

   "Who and why?"

   "Cameron Faulkner and we a have a report to work on that's due tomorrow."I lied swiftly.

   "That jerk? Fine! But only because it's for school. No kissing or anything, got it?"He poked his head out of the staircase railing.

  "Shut up dork."I smirked.

   "Weirdo!"He replied and I swear the whole neighborhood heard.

   I cursed him under my breath, returning to the T.V. I was watching the interview of the detective who was "uncovering" Carrie's disappearance. I rolled my eyes at his statement:

   "Carrie was thought to have emotional issues with family and friends, which may have provoked a sudden outburst and result in a runaway scenario such as the one in our hands."

   MTV appeared. Ridiculousness was on, a rewind of the latest episode from last week. A guy just flipped his bike over in mud and landed on his face. I don't remember laughing that much since May had pushed me down my stairs a month ago. That was hilarious though.

   A knock on the door broke my train of thought. I shot up from the couch just to fall on my face. Stupid rug.

   "Hannah?"Kevin asked."Who did that to your lip? Did you get in a fight?"

   "No. Just give me a second."I turned my back to him and opened the door. Cameron was leaning against the door frame, watching me intently.

   He came inside after I asked him to. He was being polite? Nah, it's just me over-exaggerating. Kevin sat next to me as Cameron settled in Dad's recliner. He cocked an eyebrow at Kevin and broke the silence.

   "So why is he here?"He muttered as if Kevin's presence irked him.

   "I was going to explain what happened to me, you can leave you know? "I returned sharply.

   "I was at my locker and I motioned for you to come here you know? Well, when you turned to talk to your friends and Rob came up to me. He said something like long time no see, huh?' I replied rudely and he pushed me up against my locker then people started to notice. I grouched at him  again, this time he slapped me.

   "He pinned my hands and feet down and started telling me how much he loved me and whatnot. I eventually got my hand free and punched him then ran like hell. So you know the rest from there."I let out a sigh of relief.

   "Well he must have hit you hard then. What should we tell Dad?"Kevin spoke, inspecting my lip. He pulled my chin up to the level that suited him and pretended to be Dad.

   "The truth? Can you go now, we have to do some research now, Kevin."

   "Fine. Don't do anything stupid, k?"He warned.

   "Yeah."I retorted, rolling my eyes.

   Once he retreated to his room, Cameron and I sat in awkward silence. Neither of us said anything.

   "So the text? Care to explain?"I managed to get out.

   "Do you want the whole story or short version?"

   "Short then whole."

   "The guy who sent you that, I know him. He's after you, Hannah. He's a vampire beast and wants your blood. O-neutral."
