I woke up remembering my horrible actions from earlier.I sat up in the bed and looked down at my clothes.They were ripped and covered in endless amounts of blood.I held my head in my hands as I slowly began to cry.
I got up and walked into the bathroom connected to the bedroom to look at myself in the mirror.I could barely even look at my self without breaking down.I walked back into the room and saw some spare clothes that were folded up on the foot of the bed.I hesitantly stripped and changed into the new clothes.
I wanted to burn my old clothes from today.I didn't want any memories from my bad deeds.
I opened the bedroom door and slowly walked down the stairs.
"Summer, oh my goodness!!Don't you ever scare me like that again, you hear me?!"Maria ran over and hugged me along with everyone else. "Sorry, I just wanted to clear my my mind and be alone.You know what a lot of stimulation does to me."Laila lightly pushed some of my hair behind my ear. "Yeah, we know.We're sorry, but that still doesn't excuse the fact that you ran away."I nodded and looked around the house.
It was absolutely gorgeous, it looked like it could be straight out of a home catalog.

I also caught notice to the packed luggages all over the living room.I walked away from the group and walked up to the bags.
"What are these for?" "We have business to handle.Ski went out to get our last few things."Jah said, holding onto Maria's waist. "Wait, what about my mom?She just got me back not too long ago.It would kill her to know that I'm going away without her!" "Don't worry about her, Sum.We already handled that."Laila came up to me and grabbed my hands. "What the hell are we leaving for anyways?! I should be able to know what "business" that we need to handle."I let her hands go and scooted to the side to keep my attention on Jah. "Its vampire business.You have to be apart of this, Summer.But, if you want to continue to be difficult, then stay here.Coolie, Craig, y'all can go unpack her bags."He smirked and lit up a pre - rolled blunt.They walked over to my favorite luggage from my house. "Wait!"They both looked at me and I turned around and looked at Jah. "I'll go, but I am not killing anyone else.I refuse."I crossed my arms and looked away from him,"Aight, y'all can continue unpacking her bags.I'mma go call Ski."He began to walk away until I sped walked in front of him causing him to run into me.
"What, Summer?!You don't have to go, chill out." "Why do I have to kill people?Why can't you, Ski or anyone else do it?I'm not the strongest person here.If anything, you guys are!You guys have been vampires way longer than I have.Its not fair, Jah!"A tear escaped my eye.
"Fighting and killing anyone or anything makes you stronger, babe."I heard a voice behind me say.I turned around to see Stokeley standing in the doorway with some Trader Joe's grocery bags in his hands. "I-I hate taking a life, whether they did me wrong or not.That's not who I am.I could never imagine the pain that a family has to go through when they lose someone."I went to sit on the couch. "These aren't people that care about others lives, Summer.If we kill these people, then you won't ever have to kill anyone ever again.This is for the great of good.You will finally have peace and then we can all have regular lives again.I promise you that this will be the last wave of killing."Stokeley joined me on the couch as he took my hand.He kissed my knuckles repeatedly as I looked up at him. "Okay, I'm with you."Everyone erupted in celebration and Stokeley and I engaged in a kiss that was long overdue.
