James POV

"JAMES!!! WAKE UP!!!" Someone shouted and I jumped from my bed and landed on the floor.

"Mike, what the fuck?!" I tried to shout back, but my troat felt dry (because I haven't drank blood since Friday) and it came out much calmer than what I intended it to be. He's currently leaning against my doorframe.

"Sorry bro." Michael shrugged and I check the time.

"Its seven fucking twelve a.m!" I complained to him standing up, laying on my bed again and mentally planning many ways to strangulate him.

"Yeah, and its Monday!"

"So?" I replied burrying my face on my pillow.

"So, today's your first day of school. Or have you already lost interest on Sofia? If you don't like her anymore, do you mind if I make a move on her?"

"WHAT?!" I'm standing now and fully awake. "What did you said?" I said walking towards him.

"Relax mister tough guy! I'm not going to do anything to her. I was joking. Now that you're completely awake, you should know that if you still want to continue with this plan, you shouldn't be late for school. You have....thirty five minutes to get ready."

"Shit! O...okay." I started walking out of my room.

"Uh...James? You should take a shower first. Girls like guys when they smell good."

"Shit! You're right" With that, I took a shower, shaved my beard and used a little gel on my hair. Then I chose to wear a pair of black jeans, a white t-shirt and black Vans. I went downstairs and drank four blood bags. I don't want to take any chances with Sofia. I can't loose control around her. I grabbed my backpack and walked towards the door.

"Hey, hey, hey! Not so fast! You forgot something." With that, Michael sprayed me with some perfume that was too strong for my liking.

"What's that?!" I asked coughing and with my voice hoarse because of that fucking poisonous thing.

"Abercrombie! Now you're good to go and remember!... be cool, not too clingy or too desperate. Talk about human stuff and most importantly...Don't. Bite. Her. I know she's hot and irresistible, but you have to control yourself. This is highschool and its completely different from any other social places you have been to. Okay! Have fun!" With that, he pushed me out the door and closed it without giving me time to reply.

I went to my car and drove to school. I parked right in front of a bench and I sat there. I took out my phone and listened to music. I feel weird. I didn't have any sort of contact with Sofia during weekend because my brothers told me that it would make me look like a stalker, that it was better to keep some distance, give her some space. Well, I think that's bullshit. Space my ass. I was planning on texting her a 'hey' and make some small talk with her. Its not like I would ask her her fucking social security number or ask her to marry me. Jeez! Suddenly I heard a very obnoxious laugh. I took off my earphones and looked around. Next to a white Hyundai stood a group of people and I searched for the horrible noise. Then some guy said something and the noise came from a fake blonde who sat on the lap of a brunnete football player, which reminded me of my brother Michael. He dyes his hair every month because he likes to be blonde. He always told us that a girl that he slept with, changed his hair color, but it was all a lie. He thinks that we would think that he's gay. How do I know this? Well, one day he thought that he was alone in the house, so he took the chance and dyed his hair again. I was in my room when I told everyone that I was going out so I didn't have to accompany my father to a 'party' that one of his 'friends' organized. I opened my door to grab something to eat and when I walked down the hall, I saw Michael with a towel wrapped around his torso and I smelt the fresh applied hair dye. He froze when he saw me and I promised that I wouldn't say anything about it. Since then, we developed a strange relationship were we were kind of like 'friends'.

"Sofia!" The football player shouted and stood up moving the fake blonde away. Sofia froze and slowly turned around.

"What do you want Mark?" She sighed sounding annoyed. He got closer to her, grabbed her arm and pulled her away to an area full of trees to my left, but I could still see them and hear them.

"You know exactly what I want and no matter what you say or do, I will get it." He whispered to her making her eyes widen and take a step back to be stopped by a tree.

"You're delusional. I will not go to that party so you can make me drunk and get me to have sex with you or worse!" She replied raising her voice a little and walking away, but the asshole grabbed her arm forcefully slamming her against the tree and pinning her with his body. I stood up and started jogging towards them without thinking.

"You know what? Every word that escapes your mouth only turns me on even more and also the part that you're a virgin. You have no idea how much I want to-" I cutted him off by pushing him away, careful to not use my vampire strength. I think that Sofia didn't saw me because she had her eyes closed shut of how scared she was and when I pushed him away, she took the chance and ran towards the school. Mark was still on the ground grunting in pain. No one was around, so I used my vampire speed to grab my backpack and get inside the building. As I walked, I spotted Sofia opening her locker, wiping her eyes angrily so no one would notice that she was crying. I walked towards her and she was blinking rapidly and breathing heavily.

"Sofia?"

"Oh! James. Hey! What are you doing here?" She tried to smile, but failed. Without knowing, I hugged her tightly. She seemed taken aback by my actions, but hugged me back quickly and buried her face on my neck. I could feel her warm tears against the skin of my neck and I rubbed circles on her back soothing her.

"Shh...you're safe now." She nodded and hugged me tighter. She didn't sobbed or had snot coming out of her nose. She was just breathing hard and the tears were flowing out of her beautiful eyes. This felt different. I have never hugged anyone like this, it was always side hugs it quick hugs. She stopped crying and her breathing was normal. I wrapped my hands around her waist and she wrapped hers over my shoulders. I rocked us back and fort and she raised her head to look me in the eyes. Those big brown eyes looking at my green ones with thankfulness made me feel important, made me forget that I'm a monster that drinks blood and never ages. Her eyes were red because of the crying and her cheeks were also. I want to kill that Mark guy and its taken every single cell in my body to calm myself. Sofia probably wouldn't like me killing him.

"Were you the one who pushed him away?" She asked and I nodded slowly.

"Thank you!" She smiled and hugged me again. It feels so good, no, there aren't words to describe what I'm feeling right now. Maybe there are, but I don't know which ones since all of this is new to me. Some people were staring and whispering about us, but I don't give a fuck about it. Being in this position has made me realize that nothing else matters, nothing but Sofia.

"Where is she?!" Shit! I heard him shout and Sofia pulled away with panic clear in her face and body.

"Its him, its him! Uh...come with me!" She grabbed my arm and led me to a classroom and closed the door.
