My girlfriend's a Vampire

Chapter 8

Chapter 8

"Did you worry about me, that's why you left your house when I was only 10 minutes late?" I asked

"Yeah, I did, I'm sorry I'm kind of paranoid," She said.

"That's fine, you probability should be," And I told her about Arial. She didn't say anything while I told the story. But when I finished.

"That Bitch. That Fucking Cunt," She said with bitterness.

"Whats going to happen to you?" I asked her.

"You shouldn't worry about that, it doesn't matter to me," She told me.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't do anything, I'm weaker than weak in your world," I said.

"Stop the car," She said abruptly. I pulled over to the side. She turned towards me and put her slender hands on my face.

"Don't say that, I don't care, you hear me? I don't care," She told me.

"You are strong," she said. I wasn't convinced, and she knew it.

"You are strong, because you didn't say anything to Arial, even when threatened with a bite," She told me. I still wasn't convinced. She sighed.

"I'm not that strong either, I don't have that much blood to increase my abilities," She said.

"But you can kill with a touch, even with as little blood as you have," I replied.

"How can I convince you that your not weak, that your not helpless, that I love you no matter what," She said exasperated.

"I would just like to be less of a burden to you," I said, her mouth was open wide her eyes were tearing up.

"You...You really think I think of you as a burden..." She trailed. She buried her hands in her face and started crying. I sighed I felt really bad about saying that.

"I'm sorry," I said, and I wrapped my arms around her. She started crying into my shoulder. I held her close. She kept crying, I felt worst and worst every second that passed her. I made her cry, I felt like a real bastard.

"I'm sorry," I said again. She sniveled and lifted her head from my shoulder.

"I don't think of you as a burden," She said leaning over my shoulder now.

"I know, I'm so sorry I said that," I said.

"But your right I feel helpless, I just, really wanted to help you more. If I was stronger. I could stop Jene, I could have prevented Arial from finding out how far we've gone. I'm sure that Jene has caused you more than a few problems, and now the entire vampiric race will know about us. I'm sure that will cause you even more problems," I told her.

"I don't care. I don't care what other people think about us," She said.

"Well... on to a different subject. Did you already start asking around about the blood issue? I think that's what Arial said," I asked.

"Yeah, I couldn't sleep and started asking around. Not the best idea I have to admit. Asking all at one time," She said.

"What did you find out?" I asked.

"Only bad news," She replied

"What is it?"

"Apparently there are 2 responses that vampiric blood has to human blood. Either the human blood cells die and the vampiric blood doesn't replace. Or the vampiric blood replaces the human blood," She explained.

"So, I die or I live. All or nothing" I said summarizing it.

"Yeah," She said grimly.

"Do you know the chances?" I asked.
