Blood for Blood

Chapter Six

Being sealed shut in a small box, we waited for the elevator to reach the floor. I hate elevators. I do. I'm always afraid that the doors won't open so I'll be stuck in there for ever or else the box will just drop. Well fortunately, we got to the floor safely. And there Brennan laid. In a hospital bed awake and looking right at me. While his friends were all crowded inside the hospital room. "You monster!" Yelled one getting up from his seat looking like he was about ready to fight me,"you nearly killed him!"

"No I didn't!" I said," and you really think you can fight a vampire?!" I quickly shut up after that and covered my mouth. I said too much. I turned to Aryn. He looked way too confused to even say anything. "What?!" He asked in complete shock,"and I gave you a ride?!" At this point, I had to tell him the truth. "Hey guys?" Called Brennan," could you leave the room for a bit? I have to talk to Jen."

"Course." Said another one of his friends,"just make sure she doesn't bite you again." They all laughed as they left and closed the door. Brennan rolled his eyes but then said,"hey did you try to walk 3 and a half miles just to get to me?" He asked with a warm smile. "Yeah." I said," I didn't want them knowing that I bit you. Or else I could possibly get arrested because cops hate vampires. And then while I was walking, Aryn picked me up in his dad's truck then took me here to you."

"Oh." Said Brennan,"well for once he actually did something nice. Ha-ha! But come here." He sat up in his bed. I came over closer to him. He showed me his teeth. Fresh new fangs. "Nice." I say smiling."Thank you. But no really, come closer." I inched a little closer to his face. He lifted his face up to my lips and kissed me. His thumbs brushed my cheekbones softly. I put one hand on the back of his neck to keep his head held up and the other on top of his head to play with his cute, black hair that I loved so much.

My mom called in the middle of us kissing. I took my lips off his and pulled out my phone. The collar ID read "Mom." Crap. I tapped the answer button and put it up to my ear. "Jennifer Angel Marshal!" Yelled my mother through the speakers of her antique, old cellphone. I looked over at Brennan. He gave off a worried and depressed look. I nervously spoke up."Ye-yeah?" My voice cracked badly full of nervousness. "It's midnight!" She yelled," where are you?!"

"Mom, I'm at the hospital." There was a long silent pause."...What happened?!"

"Well-uh... I- I bit...Brennan." Then on, I had to explain the whole thing but she didn't listen obviously because she was flipping out blaming for things I don't even know about. So I just tapped the end button. "She's mad." Said Brennan,"isn't she?" I nodded my head trying to hold my tears back. " Aww, come here, come here." He scooted over on his bed so I could sit down next to him. I scooped my arms underneath his back and brought the side of my face to his chest. I felt his heart beat as my tears bled into his soft tee shirt. His body, so warm, so comfortable. He ran his fingers through my hair and calmed me down as I lay crying. "Shh... it's okay." He said in a soft, kind-hearted voice.
