Vampire Child

004 ; Transformation: Human to Vampire

I turn and look at Tae, who is curled up in my embrace, with the bite marks visible on his neck. Gasping, I notice they were already healed, meaning he's in the first stage. Hunger. It wouldn't be long before he began to crave the blood of an animal, or in worse case scenario, the blood of a human. I rose from bed and break into a run. I have to find something. and quick. That's all I could think about; Find blood for him to drink.

Rushing around, I find a white top to wear and a pair of grey sweats. I look back once more at Tae, and then leave. I feel guilty, like a monster, but I know it has too be done otherwise I'd have to kill him. Which is something I don't want to do. Ever. Think about it though, where am I going to find blood? Fresh blood? A butchers. It's possible that Jin has some new meet in today. It is Saturday after all. As I fly through the doors of Jin's butcher shop - shocking him and the few customers there - he knows why I'm here and immediately hands me a fresh cows torso. Not only is it drenched with blood, but definitely big enough for a good meaty meal tonight. Perfect. I look back at him, and he winks at me, telling me "Pay later", I nod and head back out for home.

I burst through the bedroom doors and, luckily, find Tae only just awakening. He looks at me with a dead, yet some how, hungry look and blatantly says "I'm thirsty..." he points at the torso, "For that." I tell him to follow me and he does, calmly. I pour as much blood as I can fit in the glass, and he drinks it faster than I can blink. I can see him change, slowly but he does. He becomes softer, and his eyes look gentler than before. His eyes - once a soft brown - are now a more soft orange, almost yellow, tone in colour. He's not human anymore. He's one hundred percent vampire now.

Tae looks at me. "I feel different." He whispers, looking at his hands, and his suddenly paler skin, then his eyes in the big hall mirror. "They're pretty, but Jungkook, why aren't yours different?" I look at him and smile, "Tae you dummy, contacts exist" he smiles shyly and then asks "Can I see yours too?" I turn away and slowly take out the contacts; Revealing one pale green eye, and a scarily vibrant blueish-purple eye. I've never really understood why I have two colours, but I assume its something to do with turning as a child, because Alena's were the same. One red, One Yellow. I turn back to Tae and he stares in amazement. He walks closer and holds my face in his hands, admiring the colouring of my eyes. "They're beautiful" he softly whispers, now holding me in his arms "I don't ever want to be without you. Since meeting you, everything became better. I mean it."

I can feel his tears dropping on my top and I hold him, quietly, with nothing to say. Tae I love you too, and a lot. I'm glad we found each other. Tae looks at me suddenly. His surprised face makes me question him "What's wrong?" he gently slaps his hand to his head, "I think I just read your mind? Or did you say it out loud?" I look at him confused, and tilt my head to the side, "Did you just say 'Tae I love you too, and a lo-" I cut him off, "YES! I thought that, I didn't say it out loud. so you did just read my mind." We're both shocked. How's this possible? It can't be? right?

Tae reading minds isn't actually uncommon, but it only happens in some of us. At least that's what I was told by Orion, one of the vampires in my circle. We cook the torso for dinner along with a lot of rice and vegetables. I make sure there were a lot of carrots, as they're Tae's favourite. He thanks me, and begins chowing down the food faster than a wolf could; it makes me smile seeing him happy, and without a worry on his mind.
