"Don't you like Daniel?"

~

We get to the first rest stop of the day and everyone gets off except for Zach and I. We both ate breakfast before so we weren't hungry. I decide this is my only chance to tell him how I feel.
"Zach can we talk?" I ask fiddling with my thumbs
"Wow this must be serious, you used my actually name" he chuckles
"But sure"
"Ok uh I've been keeping this inside for the past month because I didn't have my humanity on so I didn't really feel. But I really felt it when you got together with Aspen. I know your still together but I'm still going to say this. I like you." I say finally looking up
"Don't you like Daniel?" He scoffs
"No, I like you" I say firmly
"Um sorry, but I'm with Aspen and-"
"I know, I just wanted to get it out" I reply
"Okay just forget this happened ok? then it'll be  fine" he says
"what?" I breath
"No! I can not keep this out of my mind Zach!" He looks at me confused
" I can't keep this out of my mind when your dating my sister!" I exclaim
"What?" He asks shocked
"Oh- uh nothing" I stutter
"So your a leoffler huh?" He crosses his arms
"No wonder you show skin" he stares at me with cold eyes.
"It would have been better to keep on your humanity switch" he crosses his arms
"You can't fall in love with me, Riley" he says more gentility noticing that I'm tearing up
"I fell in love with a girl that was with another guy and it didn't end well"
"But that's the point Zach! You did it because you lived that person. You loved  that girl and it didn't matter how she felt about you did it? You kept on falling more deeply in love with her because you liked her. You didn't want to stop loving her no matter how hurt you got in the process. Do you think your the only one who could fall in love? To chase after the love of your life?" I sniff as tears start to fall
"I- All I have to say is, I don't love you Riley. I love your sister and it will always be like that.
He then walks off as the guys walk in smiling and laughing.
I just got roasted, rejected, and exposed in one conversation
I wipe away tears and put on a smile. After they walk on the bus, a guy walks in behind them.
"Is he supposed to be here?" I raise and eyebrow while pointing at him
"Oh yeah this is Eben and he is our opening act." Corbyn explains
The new guy glares at me and looks like he's holding back. I look at him weirdly but then just shrug it off. A couple hours later, we get to our first hotel of the tour. In less than 6 hours I will meet about a thousand of these boys fans and I'm kinda nervous/ excited. They haven't met me yet so how would they react? I walk into my hotel room and open the curtains to admire the view. I get a knock at my door not long after I settled down. When I answer it, Eben comes barging in with a very angry face. As he comes towards me, I back away with a frightened face. Yeah I'm a vampire but I'm not strong. I can over power a small girl like Asspain but not a guy or any werewolfs. I bump into the wall and widen my eyes at him, he's so close to me I could feel his breath. He stares daggers into me and I could hear his heartbeat. I try not to look at his neck or his bulging veins but I can't help it. Black veins start to form under my eyes but he puts a finger out.
"No no no, you can't kill a hunter or you'll get the hunters curse" he backs away and pulls out a steak. He hurls it at me, barely missing my heart. I scream in agony while holding the sharp object that is empaled in my chest. He takes this chance to give me vervain and punch my arm which will most likely leave a bruise because now I have vervain in my system and it won't heal.
"It must be so exhausting trying not to kill, right?" He teases
"Is that one of the reasons you turned your humanity off. So you could kill with no heart, no regrets!" He shouts at me
"YOU KILLED INNOCENT PEOPLE" he shouts with anger
"I'm not going to kill you because the boys
would hate me but take this as a warning. If I ever find out you killed someone, I will kill you" He said getting up all in my face then leaving the room. I look back down at my chest breathing heavily. I pull the steak out trying not to scream but letting a quiet shriek out. I quickly bandage the gash up and get ready for the show. Hopefully it doesn't show too much.
