Angel of Darkness

I'm sorry...

RECAP:

 "Shes alive Jake" I say with joy in my voice.... but also fear.

Fear of what I just did... and fear of what I am.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I start to feel hotter and I look over at Jake then everything went black.

I wake up cold and .... wet? I sit up and open my eyes and see that I am in the bath tub from my house and its full of water and ice. Why? No idea. "Elizabeth" I hear someone say like a whisper. "Elizabeth" I hear it clearer now and I look to my right and see Jake sitting in a chair next to the tub. Then it hits me. Everything that went on before I blacked out. My mom was dead and I brought her back.... What the hell am I? "Where's my mother?" I practically scream at him while trying to get out of the tub but Jake just eases me back down. "Shes in bed. Shes fine" he smiles. "Why am I in a tub full of ice water?" I also ask. "After you passed out you started to get hotter. I tried to pick you up but you burnt my hands. I pulled you in here and turned on the cold water and ran to get ice." he looked down at his hands. "When I came back, the water you were in was boiling so I had to find a way to cool you down. I poured the ice in with you and turned off the water so I could get some more ice. After about an hour and a half you began to cool down." he finishes and I look at him with confusion and a whole lot of fear covering my face.

I dried up and got dressed shortly after I woke up. I headed to my moms room and saw that she was asleep on her bed. I walked over to her and sat down on the bed next to her. She moved a little bit but didn't wake up. I looked at her neck remembering how that thingwas eating at her neck.... kind of like a vampire. Nothing was even there signaling that she ever even got bit none the less died. Jake walked in and leaned up against the door frame,crossing his arms and looking at me with a cute smile. God DAMN!! THAT is the meaning of sexy. But luckily Jake didn't hear me because I learned a little trick. I can block my thoughts from him so he can't hear them. "What are we going to do when Shelby and your mom wake up?" he asks casually. "We can tell my mom that we have no idea what shes talking about and that it must have been a dream." I say to him. "And what do we tell Shelby?" he asks with sadness in his eyes.

"The truth. What else can we do? We can just tell the the cops that it was a dog attack that killed her mom" I tell him. "THE TRUTH?" he screams. I feel my mom shift behind me a little and see that she still dosen't wake up. "Elizabeth how will we tell Shelby the truth? What we will just walk in casually he say 'Oh hey Shelby. Yeah your mom is dead. She was killed by vampires sent from my friend that is over 500 years old that is hunting down everyone Elizabeth loves because she refused to love him. You are now a target of his so you will most likely die in the near future" he says with sarcasm. "No but we have to try to explain it to her. She has no where to go"  He looks at me and asks about her dad. "He left them last month. He was caught cheating so he left them and says that he wanted nothing to do with either of them He even said that he didn't care if they died" I say, tearing up near the end. "He can't protect her either. Shes safer with us. She will live with me." I turn to look at Jake after looking at my mom. Shelby's right behind Jake. "What?" Jake asks as he turns around. "HOLY FUCK! Shelby!? You scared me" Jake says as he leans over holding his chest. "What happened? Wheres my mom?" Shelby says with tears rolling down her face and strands of her blond hair falling in her face. "Shit" I whisper.

I calm Shelby down after she hyperventilated and had a panic attack. I sat her down on my bed and held her close to me. "What happened Lizzie?" she says trying to choke back tears but failing miserably at it. "Shelby' I hold her face between my hands, look into her eyes, and smile 'What you're about to hear is going to scare you and you'll think I'm crazy" I pause "But you have to believe me because I'm not going to lie to you" I try to smile but it doesn't come. Jake sat down beside Shelby and started to rub her back. "What are you talking about? Just tell me what happened" she says while pushing my hands away and scooting farther back onto my bed. "I don't know how to start" I say as I look to Jake. "I'm not human. Not entirely at least" Jake says abruptly. "What the hell are you talking about?" Shelby tells. Jake stands up and takes his shirt off. Damn. He looks over at me and poof there are his wings. "Holy shit! What the fuck are you? And what does this have to do with my mom?" Shelby says wide eyed. "Some sort of Angle I think. He has this guy he used to know. Now they are like enemies. Last week I found out who he was." I paused and remembered the horrible memory of went down that night. "His name is Christopher and unfortunately I have reincarnated into their lives a couple times and I always went for Jake. Christopher didn't like that so he left Jake and promised that he will get me sooner or later." I run a hand through my hair and continue. "Both Jake and Christopher aren't fully human. And neither am I" Shelby looks at me with betrayal in her eyes. "I-we can heal faster than normal people. We can run inhumanly fast. Jake has angle wings and I can bring someone back to life... I think" Shelby's thoughts start to comprehend that we're..... psychopaths. "We aren't psychopaths Shelby. Please don't think that. I mean can a psychopath read minds and sprout black wings?" I ask her. Her face. Pure fear and confusion. "Everything we are saying is the truth. Everything we are about to say his sadly the truth"
