Vampire queen

Chapter 15

I wake up to my phone going off. It is noon. I don't know how but I have slept till noon. I answer the phone and it's Kyle.

"Hey, did you get my gift?" He asked.

"Yeah. It was too much. Thank you" I could hear the sleep in my own voice. 

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to wake you. I just wanted to be sure you got it and that you were going tonight." His voice cracked and I knew he was worried. 

"Yeah, I'll meet you there." I say and hang up. I get up and pull the box out from under the bed. I leave it there and go down stairs to get coffee. "Good afternoon." Logan sarcastically says. I shoot him a look that makes him laugh. "Are we going to talk about last night and why you have been acting so weird?" I ask as I pour the hot liquid into a cup. He shakes his head. So I let it go. "Are we going to prom?" He asks me. I whip my head around to face him. "You want to go to prom?" I ask him. He nods. "Prom wasn't a thing when I was going and I never got the chance to go back to school so I want to experience it." He explains. I nod and say "Okay, thats fair. We can go but I'm somehow Kyle's date." He smiles and walks out of the kitchen. 

I put the gown back on and slip some black heels on and a necklace on that had a single pearl on it. I walk down the stairs to see Logan standing with a grin growing on his face. "You look amazing." He says as he takes my hand at the last stair. "Thank you. You clean up nicely too." I say looking him up and down. He is in an all black suit even the tie and under shirt are black. The only color is a blue pocket square. He looks so handsome that it give me butterflies. 

When we finally arrive at the dance Kyle is waiting by the door. He is in a white suit with a dark green pocket square that matches my dress. He looks nice though when I look at him I don't get the same feeling as when I saw Logan. I give him a smile and we exchange compliments. He holds out his arm to escort me in and I pause. Logan is not going to walk in by himself. I loop my arm through Logans and have both of them walk me in. I can see the gratitude all over his face. 

A slow song comes on and Kyle has me in his arms. "You really do look amazing in that dress just as I thought you would." He whispers in my ear. I give him a small smile as a thank you. "Look Emery, I know that you are Emily. Don't tell me that I am being crazy and making things up because I miss her. Everything about you is the same. So what did this scientist have it right all along?" He asks. I want to lie to him but I also don't. He deserves the truth even if Logan gets mad. I nod. "Yeah, he was right about everything. You can't tell anyone though." I whisper. He nods his promise. I rest my head against his chest as we danced relived that he finally know. 

The doors to the gym burst open we both jumped in surprise. Standing in the doorway was Dr. Wickerson. His gaze finally catches me and he pulls a gun from under his coat. Kyle moves me behind him as I try to pull him behind me. Time seemed to slow in that moment. The sound of the gun was muffled my the music. Kyle fell against me and we slid to the floor. I watched Logan as he went after him. I held Kyle in my arms as everyone around us ran out. I looked down at him and blood was pooling out of his side. I could hear his heart slowing. "No. No! Kyle, you have to stay with me! I just got you back!" I cried. Tears spilled over and down my cheek. Kyle reached his hand up to wipe the tears. "Kyle! Please! Please stay with me!" I cried harder. He couched and blood came up and I knew that was it. "I love you Emily. I always have." he choked out as he took his last breath. I pulled him more to me and held him tight. I knew he was gone because his heart stopped. 

Logan finally came back with paramedics. They tried to take him from me but I fought and held on tighter. Logan had to pull me away from Kyle's body so they could finally take him. Logan held me in his arms as I cried. As time passed he picked me up to carry me home. At some point everything went black.
