Forever Alone

The Search

I lived where I died, so that means she must be close by. Today is the day I try to find her. Last night, I remembered more of what happened in my dream.

After the party I went home with Lauren -the girl at the party- and we talked for hours. We finished out drinks at hers and during that time all I could think about was her.. her body, her eyes, her smile... every last feature spun around in my mind. I left soon after finishing my drink and on my way home I ran into someone in the street.

I remember him lunging for me, a sharp pain in my neck and then nothing. Back to darkness.

I go out in search for Lauren. I check the local parks, the local restaurants and cafes... the only place left is the high school. I enter through the doors and there she is. Standing at her locker, practically glowing.

I go to talk to her but then I find my sled stopping. I start to feel the hunger the urge to feed. She starts to walk up to me but the closer she get the frantic my mind gets. All my emotions: happiness, fear, sexual urge, hunger... all mixed into one. Next thing I know my hand begin to shake and my eyes turn blood shot red and my fangs begin to pick through. The bell goes and I use the crowd of moving bodies to escape.
