Accidentally a Vampire

-Warning- murder of a character (turning into a vampire)

Lily and I drive to the talk show about our up coming lgbtq movie, where Janie was waiting for us at the tv stage. Lily had always been a strange woman, she was my love interest in the movie but she did seem to like me very much. Maybe I was just paranoid, I mean she would never kill me. We are about to arrive when Lily breaks the silence.

"So, I have been meaning to tell you something," Lily says calmly.

"Oh, yes Lily?" I ask.

"I haven't always liked you and I find it hard to be around you because I have now grown fond of you," Lily tells me, "but I know how to fix that little dilemma."

"How..," I start to ask when she movies closer to me. Then she grabs me by the neck and bits me hard, I cry out but am silenced by her hand. The driver payed no attention to us in the back of the car, even with my screams of desperation after Lily moves her hand to get a better grip on my upper body.

"Why are you doing this," I cried.

"Because if I like you and you are still alive then I am weak, and that can not happen." I felt my body start to get heavy and my mind get slower as she stole my blood, my eyes were starting to close.

"Help," I whispered weakly.

"We are heyre my master," the driver tells Lily. I was barely able to keep awake when I saw Lily step out of the car. The driver then drove away into the car parking area away from any peering eyes. My mind was slowly shutting down, I reached for the bite left over from Lily. The blood was still flowing quite a lot, using the blood gushing from the wound I spelled the the word "help" onto the window before my vision went completely black and my body felt cold.

.........

"Emma, Emma," I faintly hear someone shout. My mind was still hazy, my body broken and weak but functional.

"Here," I called to whom ever. The car door was ripped open reveling Scott my manager, John one of the producers , Suzan my best friend, and another strange man who ripped off the door.

"Oh Emma!" Suzan cries. While John and Scott pull me out of the car. They lay me carefully onto a stretcher, the blood on my shirt was dried and my neck wound wasn't bleeding anymore.

"How did you find me," I horsey ask.

"We realized you were missing when Lily showed up without you," John explained.

"Oh," I quietly replied. My mind still trying to keep awake, but my body seemed to be doing better by the second.

"We need to get to the interview," I tell them. They look at each other concerned, then all their eyes turned back at me, I knew something was wrong.

"Emma, the interview was hours ago," Scott told me.

"We tried to stop it but the shows producers wanted to get the interview completed," Suzan tried to tell me. I heard shouts coming from close by and then Janie appeared. I pushed myself up to see all of them, my body was feeling better already. Which shouldn't be normal, I have been knocked out for hours.

"Omg, your ok," Janie cries out in joy.

"Yes all good," Lily coldly replies. Janie smacks Lily's shoulder angrily, the haze in my brain broke. The memories come rushing back, the blood flowing and the desperate cries. I almost screamed when the memories came flowing to fast, like blood. I kept my cool and looked at Lily, she seemed all to interested me.

"I'm fine," I tell the concerned friends and coworkers. I started to stand when John pushed me back down onto the stretcher, which was kinda random.

"We need to do a full check on you to be sure everything is ok," Scott tells me, "when we found you, there was some blood on your shirt." I grabbed the side of my neck but there wasn't bit marks, just a cut which had dried blood around it.

"I'm fine," I promise them. To be truthful, I was actually fine. I was feeling better by the minute and yet, I felt different and foreign to myself.

"Are you sure?" Susan asked concerned. Janie seem as worried as the others while Lily seemed almost joyful. I swing my legs to the edge of the stretcher and then stood. I wobbled on my unsteady legs at first but soon was standing normally.

"See all good," I tell the others, Janie and John sighed in unison while the Suzan and Scott release a breath they were holding. Lily walked over to me and smiled, she raped her arm around my shoulder and pulled me close to her.

"Well then, we better get her home so that she can get better don't we?" Lily tells the others.

"I can drive you home," Suzan offers but before I can accept her invitation Lily stops me.

"I think I can drive her home," Lily tells the others and for some reason I couldn't respond. It was like someone put tape over my mouth, it felt weird and yet familiar.

"Well let me come with," Janie more commanded than asked.

"Alright," Lily replied. We all pilled into the car and started heading for my big house in L.A. Only half a hour from where we were, I noticed that it was a different driver which made me nervous. Janie wanted to sit in the front because she seems to get car sick if she doesn't, plus she seems to like the company. Lily and I got to sit on the back, but being near her scared me. Half way through the trip, Lily put up a divider that separated the driver and the passengers.

"So you survived," Lily coldly snarled,"I'm not sure if I would be happy or sad about this new development." She moved closer to me, and my body felt cold. Her touch felt strange and welcoming, but she wasn't something natural and I don't think I was either.

"What are we?" I asked.

"We are vampires my dear," Lily replies.

"I thought you were myths," I whispered shocked.

"We like to keep hidden," Lily tells me.

"Then why try to kill me," I ask her.

"As I stated earlier, loving a human is weak to our kind and you were human," Lily explained, "but now that you are a vampire."

"You can be with..." I gasped. I don't know how I survived but I was ready to make sure this never happened again.

"I won't be yours," I tell Lily.

"You know nothing about our kind," Lily laughs, "when we change someone, then they belong to us."

"So, I am yours?" I replied, fear in my voice.

"For forever, my darling," Lily tells me with a cruel smile on her face. I could feel myself being pulled towards her, and I wasn't about to let her win.

"You wanted me to die less than seconds ago, and now you want me?" I almost shout at Lily.

"I always wanted you, but know I can have you," Lily explains. I scowl at her, my anger was clear and yet. I wanted to be her's so that I could be part of something. Without the worry of being excepted or if I truly belong.

"I honestly don't know what to say," I replied, "I guess what I think I might say is." I leaned close to Lily with only inches between us, my new fangs flashed in her face.

"I think you should have made sure I stayed dead." I snarled.

The End
