While I may of agreed to help, that consists entirely of just not freaking out. Which for the record, is already up for review and could change without notice. 

What the hell? Why couldn't I just have a normal life binge watching Monster High and getting wasted off energy drinks? I miss the lonely nights when it was just me and Dobby.

I sat down on the curb nodding in Lizzy's direction and letting her know that I know shes following me so she might as well just come join me. Damn vampire or not, she isn't the most stealthy in the world.

"You cool? You don't hate me now do you?" She asked when she got near

It was a stupid question. How could we be cool? I was completely used and ambushed. "You're going to need to tell Anna that I can't be involved. "

"But you said-"

"I said what I needed to get out of there! There are reasons why I'm here. Lots of them for your information but the important one at the moment is, I don't want to be a Luna. If I didn't let Nancy bulldoze her will on me, I'm not going to let you or your mother,  maker, or whoever she is to you do so."

I was getting more and more upset and I knew she was too. Lizzy could fly off the walls for just about anything. As for me, I was fast approaching.  I couldn't seem to rid the feeling like I'm being pulled apart. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, trying to will myself calm. It didn't help much.

"Don't you think you're overreacting?" That did it.

"NO!" This was going nowhere. Several people walking across the street gave me a dirty look letting me know that I was louder than I should be. This wasn't the place for this conversation. That suited me just fine as I was already more than done with it.

"I'm leaving." I said as I got up and headed off.

"How are you going to get back home? Crystal! You're being stupid!"

I didn't answer her. I didn't know how. My home was 350 miles to the east in Idaho. I was sorta hoping that might change with Lizzy but there's no way I can live with a vampire. 

Has she been feeding off me? I haven't noticed any puncture marks around my neck recently… she could've hypnotised you, making you forget my voice reasoned in my head. It wasn't helping but this time I couldn't tell it to shut up as it had a point.

"WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT? You WANT TO EXPLAIN HOW SOME SHORT FAT CHICK BEAT YOUR ASS AT WORK TOMORROW?  I DON'T THINK SO! YA BETTER MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS THEN, JACKASS! CONVERSATION HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU. LET'S KEEP THAT WAY FOR YOUR SAKE."

I heard Lizzy scream at someone in frustration. I quickened my steps refusing to look back. 

I spent the rest of night roaming around Seattle like a homeless person. What was I saying, I was a homeless person. There was no way I could go back to Lizzy's yet I needed some sleep. The effects of the nights activities were catching up with me. I would at some point, to get my car, but not right now. And certainly not when it was dark.

For the better part of the day I sat watching the skyline at Kerry's park. It was easily my favorite place in Seattle with the Space needle standing tall as it towered over all the other buildings. The sun was out and the sky clear so even Mnt Rainier was clearly seen. It really was a picture perfect scene but even it didnt do much for my mood or helped me sleep.

Lizzy was probably right about me being stupid. Why did I care so much about her being a vampire? I mean, I slept with a damn werewolf for Pete's sake! Correction,  two werewolves! Deep down I suspected the answer but I'd never admit it.
