It must have been hard for him to control himself to the extent that he did, I gained respect for him for being able to do so. I wanted to hate him and felt I wasn't being loyal to Ty for not hating him. I sat next to him, and had listened while he told me the of the events that had unfolded, all the while thinking how incredibiy handsome he was. His eyes were dark brown, warm and soft. His hair medium golden brown, not too short, not too long, cut and styled to perfection. His face was smooth, but manly. He had a strong chin and high cheek bones. His eyebrows were full, but not bushy and straight which gave him a look of determination and intelligence. I cursed myself for admiring him. No, I couldn't hate him, and found that I was actually enjoying his company,just like I used to when we were friends.
"Hungry?" he asked. I was starting to feel a little weak, "Yes, but should I be concerned?" I said, not trying to sound ungrateful. "No baby, don't worry I have the pure stuff without any additives, sound yummy?" he happily replied as he stood up. I looked up at him, "I miss the hunt" I said sadly. He knelt down in front of me, looking into my eyes, "Sil, you'll hunt again, I promise you. Hopefully, we'll be hunting together, but for now, the vials are the best I can offer you." He kissed my forehead, I didn't flinch, or move my head away, I allowed it, and I liked that he did it. He left to retrieve dinner for me. I sat there alone with my thoughts realizing, I liked Adam.
Chapter 27: ConfirmationRed watched from a distance as Ty and the woman on dance floor had left Hell's Pit and ducked around the corner. Red followed them siliently as they went down a dark alley and made their way into an abandon wherehouse. The couple was completely unaware that they were being followed.
They found a tiled room, with large open showers, bathroom stalls and sinks. Possibly one of the cleaner areas of the disgusting building. Ty wasn't really caring about cleanliness and took her into the huge tiled, out of commission shower, he had one thing in mind. Red who had snuck into the bathroom and into a stall was perched up on a toilet. Listening. He heard everything, at one point he peeped up over the stall and could clearly see that Ty was doing her from behind. He had seen and heard enough, disgusted he vapped himself into the night.
In his lonely one room apartment Red paced the floor back and forth. "I'm such a fool!" he said to himself. "Silvia's lucky dude-vamp took her away from that guy, he's a real piece of shit" he said, talking outloud as if he was having a conversation with someone. Red was lonely, maybe having conversations outloud with himself took some of his loneliness away. "She hasn't been gone three nights and he's got his pecker in someone else, I really don't like that kind of stuff man. That ain't cool. I ain't helping Ty-guy no more, why the hell would I help him get her back when he's not even loyal to her?" Red was pissed. "Fuck this, I'm out of here man!" With that Red went on the hunt for a kill. The last thing some poor old homeless guy saw was a Red haired, vampire wearing heavy black rimmed glasses with buck teeth lunging for him. The old guy's last words just before Red burrowed into his neck..."What the fuck?"
Chapter 28: The Truth HurtsAdam returned with two vials of "O" Positive. "Why does this feel like deja vu?" I said jokingly. Adam smiled,"I thought we'd dine together, if you don't mind that is?" he said tenderly. "That's fine, I have no problem with that" I replied. He uncorked the vials and handed me one, "bottoms up!" he said, and we poured the liquid down. I felt refreshed. "Thank you Adam" I said handing the empty vial to him. "My pleasure, thank you for dining with me" he responded looking into my eyes. I could see the love for me in his eyes, a look I had never seen in Ty's beautiful copper eyes.
"Adam why did you kill Ty?" I asked him, a question that had been on my mind since I learned he was the one responsible for Ty's transformation. "If I told you Silvie, you'd be very angry with me. I want to be honest with you, but I don't want you to hate me, so I think it's best if I don't tell you, I don't want to hurt you" he said sincerely. "Look Adam, I need to know the truth, even if I get mad at you. I would be even more angry at you if you don't tell me the truth" I said sternly. He thought about that for a minute and knew she deserved to know the truth. "Okay Sil, this is going to hurt you. I'm telling you sorry in advance and know that I mean it from the bottom of my heart" he said as he brushed a strand of hair from my face neatly placing it behind my ear. "Go ahead, I can handle it" I said like a young girl about to get a shot from the doctor.
Adam stood up and stoked the fire, his back to me. "I love you so much Sil, when you broke off our friendship I was devastated. After my family and I moved away I was hanging out at a park by myself one night thinking about you, I always thought about you, I tried to do things to get you off my mind, but I couldn't. No one was around and out of no where I was attacked by a female vampire, I died that night, but I was also liberated. I was able to visit you while you slept, I did that often, almost everynight. I wanted to bring you with me so desperately, but I couldn't do that to you. I just wanted to make sure you were okay, that you were happy. Sometimes I saw you with Ty, heard your conversations with him. I knew you were saving yourself for him because you loved him and he told you he was saving himself for you until you turned eighteen. For two years I watched you, wanting nothing but happiness for you, I was happy that you had found love while it tormented me at the same time because it wasn't with me. I followed Ty one night when he left your house and go to some other girls house. I saw what he was doing with her, Sil. I saw it with my own eyes, he deceived you. The next night was your eighteenth birthday, I saw what happened, I watched him take your innocence from you. He lied to you, he betrayed you and I hated him for that. When he left your house I followed him, I was so angry that he had deceived you I couldn't contain my anger, I attacked him and bit into his neck, and left his dead body in the open where the mornings sunlight would dispose of him. The sunrise was less than twenty minutes away. He must have transformed before the sun came up, I didn't know he had escaped. Two nights later when I came back to check on you, I was too late, you were gone and I knew he had gotten to you. I wanted to protect you from him and I failed" he said with deep remorse in his voice. The whole time he was telling me this he had been looking into the fire. He turned to me and said with tears in his eyes, "Please forgive me Sil, I'm so sorry."
I sat there with tears pouring down my face, I got up and walked over to him, I stood there for a moment starring him in the eyes. The part of me that was angry with him took over and I slapped him hard, he took it, feeling he deserved that at the very least. He looked deep into my pain filled eyes, "I'm so sorry Silvie" he said mournfully. I put
