We'll play in the dark, 'till it's golden again (A TW FanFiction)

Part Thirteen

Siva's POV

As I walk into my house, with my suitcase in hand. I start to wonder about what happened last night. I know I got bitten, but what does that mean? Does that mean I'm a vampire now or what. As I place my suitcase on the floor, I close the door behind me and I turn to look at myself in the mirror, but I'm not there. What the hell is happening? Oh I get it. The boys are sick of people looking in the mirror the whole time, so they have replaced it with a joke one when we went away. Well that's just hilarious that is. Well, I'm sorry for taking pride in my appearance and not going out looking like a slob, like they all do. I pick up my phone to call someone to find out what they've done with my mirror. That's an expensive mirror as well. Who do they think they are? I bet it's on Tom's wall now or something, knowing them lot. I dial Max's number to try and get some information, but he doesn't answer. Maybe he's busy. To be honest, I wouldn't blame him, he has only just got home, like me. I'll ring him later. I carry my suitcase up stairs to unpack. I love travelling and everything, but there's nothing like sleeping in your own bed and knowing where everything is.

Once I've finished unpacking everything, I try once more to ring Max and this time he answers.

"Hey Seev. What's up?" he asks me, sounding quite happy with himself.

"Like you don't know" I tell him. Obviously he will know if he took my mirror or not.

"What are you talking about?" he asks. Usually he would get annoyed by this, but this time he doesn't.

"What are you so happy about? And where is my mirror?" I ask him.

"What are you talking about?" he asks me.

"Well when I got home I tried to look in the mirror, but it seems that someone has replaced it with a joke one, because I can't see myself. Now tell me what you've done with it. That is an expensive mirror and I don't appreciate it being stolen from me" I tell him, but he just laughs for a minuet.

"Oh no, what monster would do that? Imagine that, not being able to obsess over your hair all the time" he says sarcastically.

"Shut up. This is serious. I need it back" I explain.

"Hang on a second. The other night at the club" he starts, but then trails off. "Look we can't talk over the phone. People could be listening. Come over to mine, I need to talk to you" he says.

"Oh, is it some kind of treasure hunt? I'll be right there" I say sarcastically.

"No, just please Siva. This is serious" he tells me.

"Fine, I'm on my way" I say and with that, I get up and head to my car.

When I finally park up outside of Max's house I notice that something has changed. I don't know what, but it's something in the air. I can sense it. I lock up my car and then I walk towards the door. Before I can even knock, Max opens the door and he doesn't look like this is a joke.

"Come in" he says, as he moves to the left, so that I can enter the house. I walk into the living room, where I sit down on the couch and Max sits next to me.

"What's going on Max?" I ask him.

"Look, I don't mean to freak you out, but the other night at the club, did you meet anyone?" I ask him.

"Yes, a girl why?" I ask him.

"Did she bite you?" he asks, keeping a straight face.

"What?" I ask him.

"Oh forget this" he says, as he grabs hold of my head and tilts it to one side. "You have" he gasps.

"Yeah so..." I ask him, slightly offended by his tone.

"Look" he says, as he pulls his top away from his neck, revealing two little dots on his neck. "I got bitten too. We're vampires, Seev" he says.

"What? Are you crazy?" I laugh.

"No seriously. I've just had the girl who bit me come round and she told me all this stuff about rules and things. This is happening Siva. It's horrible, but it is" he tells me.

"Don't be insane. Why hasn't anyone come to see me then?" he asks me.

"Because they might be on their way or something" he tells me.

"I doubt it. This is just your idea of another joke and I'm not going to fall for it, just because you and the boys want to make fun out of me, yet again" I tell him as I stand up to leave.

"Listen Siva, we would never do that to you" he says, but I can see right through him. The boys always take the piss out of me. Not anyone else, just me. They tell me it's just a joke, but I can't help but take it personally. Like when they try and do my accent, it hurts. I just don't have the heart to tell them. I don't want them to think that I'm weaker than they already think I am. I stand up annoyed at Max for treating me like some kind of dumb kid and I make my way towards the door.

"Wait Siva" he calls after me, but it's too late. I walk out of the door and make my way to the car. I get about half way, before I start to feel a sharp pain in my stomach, which causes me to fall to the floor.

"Siva?" I hear a female voice say. I open my eyes, to see a young woman with long black hair a pretty little smile on her face. "I'm Becca. I met you at the club" she says, and then I remember.

"What's happening to me?" I ask her, worriedly as Max runs over to me.

"Siva are you ok?" he asks, but I can't bring myself to answer and to be honest, I think it's plainly obvious that I'm not ok.

"Look, you need to feed. Come on" Becca tells me as she helps me up. I try to talk, but the pain has taken over my vocal chords. We walk towards the woods. Once we get there, I notice that there is a group of girls around a camp fire.

"There" she says, as we walk towards them. She sits me down against a tree, where they can't see me.

"Wait here. I will tell them that one of them needs to come here and then you can feed off of her" she says, as she disappears off. At that moment Max falls down next to me and curls up in pain.

"My stomach" he says, in pain. After a few minuets Becca comes back with a young girl who looks about twenty-two.

"What's going on? Are you ok?" she asks me, as she kneels down next to me.

"Oh I'll go get someone to help you too" Becca says to Max, before disappearing again. I look at the girl and my blood starts pumping faster. It makes me even more hungry. She places both of her hands on my shoulders.

"Hello, can you hear me?" she asks me, looking worried, but I can't concentrate. At that moment I can't control it anymore and I grab hold of her shoulders and I pull her closer to me, where I bite her neck and I slowly start to drink her blood. It's so wrong, but it feels so right!

"Please no! Stop" she begs, but I can't. It's like once I've started, I just can't stop. "You're killing me" she says, as she slowly starts to loose consciousness.

"I can't" I whisper, but then I remember everything that has happened in my life. I can't kill this girl. I pull away from her, but she's already passed out and covered in blood. I quickly feel her pulse but it's only weak.

"Becca!" I yell, in the hope that she might be able to help me save this girl. I can't let her die.

"Yeah?" she asks as she walks over to me. "Do you want me to finish her off?" she asks. I look around and then I notice Max leaning over another girl, feeding from her. He doesn't even look guilty. It's horrible. I can't be this person. I can't be this thing.

"How do I save her?" I ask her, but she just laughs. "It's not funny. I'm being serious here. I can't let her die" I tell her.

"The only way you can save her is if you make her into one of us" she sighs.

"Ok then, how do I do that?" I ask her. As I hold the girl in my arms. She looks so pretty. She has long black hair and blackish eyes. "Please wake up" I whisper, but I know she can't hear me.

"You have to bite her neck again, but instead of sucking you need to push your venom into her wound" she says and with that I push my teeth into her neck once more and I start to push the venom into her. As I pull away and look at her pretty face, I see the life slowly re-appear in her face, even though she is still pale.
