I watched from afar waiting for my best friends to enter the school. The halls began to slowly fill up as I noticed my pale friend enter the building. His black hood was up, covering the majority of his face but I could identify the shape of his lips at any given distance. I'd known Michael since the 5th grade. I noticed a teacher scold him to take his hood down. His slid it off with irritation then squinted at the bright school lights. He bent his head low and continued walking.
"Hi Mya!" A tall scrawny boy jumped in front of me sitting down in the cafeteria seat. I blew a strand of hair away from my face and glanced down at my hands.
"Hello, Barry." Barry was this red headed nerd who was close to obsessed with me. The amount of times he asked me out were not enough to count on my fingers. Of course I kindly went on a date with him the first time, but that just led him to believe I was head over heels for him...which I was not.
"So...I was wondering..." he trailed off with a sheepish smile. I cocked an eyebrow waiting for him to finish his sentence.
"You were wondering...?"
"I was wondering if you wanted to hang out this weekend?"
"Barry, I'm going to tell this to you again. I don't have feelings for you, okay?"
"Fine! We'll hang out as just friends! See you then!" He quickly stood up amd turned around but ended up running into Luke...who was also dressed in black. I sighed knowing Luke was going to start picking on him.
"Hi Barry!" Luke smirked and wrapped an arm around his shoulder. He forced him to sit down.
"Luke," I warned while shooting him a disapproving glare. Luke rolled his eyes and smiled at Barry.
"Relax M. I'm just being nice. Barry's my friend right, BlueBarry?" Luke chuckled while gently punching Barry's arm. A figure sat down next to me suddenly. I turned to see Michael staring at his hands, they were shaking.
"Sure..." Barry chuckled nervously at Luke.
"Luke, leave him alone." Calum walked over and plopped down in the seat next to Mikey. He glanced at Mikey for a second then did a double take as his eyes widened.
"Bro, are you okay?" Cal whispered in Michael's ear. I leaned closer for a better listen. Michael glanced at me then looked away. He sucked in a deep breath then placed a hand over his mouth. I noticed him silently and slowly shake his head no.
"Thirsty." He whispered. I heard his muffled voice quiver slightly. Luke let go of Barry then turned to Michael.
"We can leave school right now if you want." Luke murmured as he flashed Cal an alarming look.
"Do you need some water?" I asked worriedly. Michael shook his head. The first bell rang but the 4 of us remained still in our seats.
"Come on, Mike. I'll drive you." Luke murmured then stood up. I stood up too.
"I'm coming with."
"No." The three boys simultaneously muttered with urgency in their voices. Now I knew something was up. Something was always up when I was around them, I didn't understand and I never dared to ask. 2 minutes passed and the second bell rang. School had started and we had no way out.
"Call Ashton." Luke instructed Cal. Michael's eyes began to droop and I swore his skin was glistening slightly. He quietly put his hood up again and pulled his sleeves up so his hands were covered.
"You guys have to tell me what the hell is going on. I'm not just gonna stand here like an idiot." I snapped while crossing my arms.
"Hey! Get to class." A staff member began to approach us. Suddenly my heart began to race for Michael.
"Okay we're going!" I yelled back as we all pretended to walk away.
"Back doors, lets go." Luke hissed. We all followed him and impatiently waited for Ash to show up. Thank god his class didn't start to 12. Perks of being in college. Moments passed and suddenly we were running out the door and across the parking lot. We got inside and with a loud screech, Ash sped off.
"Alright you assholes, you tell me whats going on RIGHT NOW." I snapped as they all looked down at their hands. Ashton pretended he didn't hear. Michael turned to me with helplessness. His face was ghostly white.
"If we tell you, you'd be scared."
"Shutup, Mike." Cal hissed.
"You shutup, Calum." I snapped back. He looked down with a shake of his head.
"It's better you don't know, Mya."
"Why?" I muttered. But before anyone could answer the car made a low rumbling sound then slowly...stopped.
"DAMMIT." Ashon muttered then slammed his fists against the steering wheel. Michael gave a horrified look towards me leaning slightly forward, I noticed his eyes change color.
"We're vampires." Michael grimaces once he says those words. It takes me a few moments to realize what he just said and suddenly it falls into place. The dark colors of clothing, the pale skin, the reason they never eat during lunch, and the way Michael was looking at me with such...hunger.
"Prove it." I mutter while biting down my fear. And then I see their fangs and they're glowing eyes. I'm struck with surprise and horror.
"Well...what's wrong with Michael?" I question as he is now curled up in a ball facing away from me.
"He is thirsty for human blood. But we're stuck here in the middle of nowh-"
"He can drink mine." I say shakily. How was I so calm? They all fall into a terrifying silence. "As long as it's not gonna kill me right?" I add immediately after.
"No, it won't I wouldn't let that happen," I hear Mikey breathe a response.
"Alright, drink then." I whisper slowly as he sits up with surprise.
"I'm not drinking your blood, Mya."
"You have no other damn choice, do you want to die?!" I mutter with irritation but that was mostly out of fear. Michael furiously shook his head as the boys just continued to watch with hesitation.
"I'll take away the pain." Luke mutters with an empty voice. The boys whip their heads in his direction with alarm. Luke signals them by raising his eyebrows and slowly they understand. I, on the other hand, am left deeply confused.
"What?" I say with urgency.
"We know how to take away the pain when Michael drinks your blood." Ash murmurs while avoiding eye contact. I nod with confusion.
"Okay, and how?"
"Luke's going to put you in a trance, and you won't feel a thing." Calum places his cool palms against mine and I shiver slightly. His smile though, is warm and genuine. I nod as I gulp and stare at Luke. Michael sits up and hovers over me, tracing my neck with hunger. I gulp.
"I promise," he whispers, "I won't kill you." He leans closer, his breath on my neck and at just that moment Luke grabs my hand and stares into my eyes. I feel a weird sensation take over my body and I freeze. I don't feel or remember a single thing after that.
......
When I wake up, I'm in my bed and its pitch black. I sit up straight as I'm hit with a sudden pain in my head. I groan and gently rub it to make it go away but the pain remains. I lazily stretch over to my dresser and turn on the clock light. The machine flashes a: Friday 4:20 am then immediately changes to 4:21. I sit up in bed focusing on my memory. I swear I was at school until...Maybe it was just a dream. I'm about to lay down again when I feel a pain in my neck. My fingers fly to the sore spot and I feel something wet at the tips of my fingers...blood.
