CHAPTER TEN

(RECAP)

"Baby what ever it is you are is not going to scare me away." He says sweetly and kisses my forehead and cheeks."

"Okay then, let's get this over with." I say flatly.

We walk into the bathroom, Dick steps into the shower and turns it on. He squirms around at first, because the water is cold when it first comes out. I laugh and take a deep breathe.

'This is it!' I mutter under my breathe.

I step in the shower, keeping my eyes completely focused on Dick, making sure he doesn't start flipping out. He looks directly in my eyes and mouths, 'I love you no matter what!' I mouthed to him, "dido.' We both smiled and then I let myself change.

"Oh my gosh," he says smiling, "you are absolutely beautiful Mary. I can't believe you're a.."

"Mermaid!" I laugh.

The Next Morning

I awoke very relaxed. I felt more rested then I have in a very long time, and it's all thanks to my one and only true love. Dick looks so handsome, even in his sleep I want to jump on him and attack him. My mind has turned in to a dirty thing lately. Ever since I laid eyes on him all I've thought about is sex! Not that it's a bad thing, but with my job, I can't have that on my mind all day. That would just be disgusting, and very inappropriate.

I lay and stare at Dick for a long time, then remember, I have no milk left. I quietly get up, get dressed and run to the super market down the road. I'll be sure to grab two gallons of milk, just to be safe. You never know what could happen if he doesn't have milk, and I'm not going to be the one to find out.

I enter the super market, and notice a lot of people staring at me. 'What the hell are they staring at?', I ask myself. I'm dressed as I normally am, the only difference is my hair is pulled up in a messy bun. Maybe that's why they are looking at me all crazy. So I ignore all the weird glares that I'm getting and make my way over to where the milk is. Instead of getting two gallons, I decided on three. I really don't want to know what could happen. I juggle three gallons of milk, making my way to the check out counter. Once I get there I place them on the belt and wait my turn. People continue to stare and it's really pissing me off.

"What's the deal," I ask angrily, "do I have something on my face, clothes or is something wrong with the way I'm wearing my hair?"

Judy the cashier replies, "Uh, Mary have you looked in the mirror today?"

"No, why?" I ask curiously.

"Well," she says, "you have a huge bite mark on the side of your neck, and blood is dried on it."

"What!" I scream.

"Here," she says taking a mirror from her purse beneath the counter, "have a look."

I take the mirror and turn my head slightly to the right, and to my surprise, there is a huge bite mark. Shit, I think to myself, I need an excuse.

"Oh that," I laugh, "that's fake, it's from a vampire play I'm working on with the kids I watch. i must've forgotten to take it off.

"Oh," Judy laughed nervously, "it looks so real! Can I touch it?"

"Sure." I reply not knowing what else to do.

"Wow!" she squeals.

"What's wrong," I ask panicked, "are the pieces falling off?"

"Some are, and Mary," she says, "when is this vampire play, I'd love to come watch it. Especially since everything looks so real, and feels so real."

"I'll let you know Judy," I laughed, "it'll probably be a little while longer though."

"Okay, please don't forget to invite me!" she yelled as I exited the market.

I nod, letting her know I heard her,  then quickly walk back to my apartment.

I can't believe I forgot Dick bit me! No wonder everyone was looking at me like that. Shit, shit, shit! I wonder how long it will take for this to heal? I can't go to school and let the children see me like this, it would devastate them. I hope Dick is awake when I get back to the apartment. I need to know what's going on!

All of a sudden I felt a new energy inside me, almost like I had some sort of super speed power. I gripped the handles on the bags that held the milk and slowly began to run.At first, I didn't notice a difference in my speed, then out of no where I was at my apartment door! I inserted the key and opened the door. I guess Dick is still sleeping, because I didn't see any movement in the dark apartment.

WAIT! I can see in the dark!?

*BANG*

DICK's POV

I woke up to a loud bang, what the hell was that,I thought. I jumped up, not caring that I was still naked from last night and ran into the living room. There sprawled out on the floor, was Mary. Did she fall? Did she faint? Oh my, my sweet Mary. I zoomed over, quickly swooping Mary in my arms. I slammed the door as I raced to lay Mary on the leather couch. I can still hear her heart beating, so I know she's alive, but what caused her to be like this? 

"Baby," I spoke softly, "can you hear me?"

She grunted and groaned, trying to sit up, but I wouldn't let her. She opened her eyes and looked at me.

"W-what happened?" she asked confused.

"I'm not really sure," I reply, "I heard a loud bang, ran in here and found you on the floor unconscious. What happened sweetie?"

"Uh...Um...I think it had something to do with me being able to-" she started, before I interrupted.

"Able to what!" I all but screamed.

"Able to see in the dark," she continued, "and speed walk."

"Really," I questioned, "what else can you do?"

"I'm not sure, but I got you three gallons of milk." she laughed pointing to the front door.

I quickly ran over and grabbed the milk, then placed two gallons in the fridge. I brought one to the couch with me, drinking half of it within a second. Mary, without warning, yanks the half gallon away from me and finishes it off. She smiles when she's done, handing me the empty container. I take it and watch as she hastily walks to the fridge grabbing another gallon. Before she realizes, that gallon is gone too.She is beginning to get mad. She abruptly grabs the last gallon, opens it, and begins emptying it.

I begin to panic, realizing that if I don't get more milk soon, Mary could become something neither of us want her to become. I quickly get dressed, knowing that only only have seconds before she is out of milk. I hastily run to the market, grab eight gallons of milk, purchase them, then haul ass back to Mary's apartment. Hoping the whole time, I make it back in time.

When I arrive, Mary is sitting on the floor in the kitchen. She's looking down at her stomach, but why? Is something else wrong with my Mary?
