Why me? I think as I lay dying on the ground. Yeah so I meet the most amazing guy, realize he's a vampire, fall in love with him and now I'm lying in his arms dying? How could this day get any worse? I sobbed as he stood over me and told me that he would die for me and that I meant the world to him then someone stabbed me and I fell into his arms. His family jumped up and ran after my assassin. But let me start at the beginning. This is my story:

Chapter 1: My prince charming.... Or not?


Have you ever known someone for so long that it feels like their part of your family? Yeah well thats how I feel about Mason Briggins. My best friend since kindergarten. But I have started feeling differently about him lately. I have started falling for him. It hurts though because he has a gorgeous girlfriend. I sigh as I watch him kiss her neck. She giggles. Why is my heart doing this to me? Its betraying me, like always. I can feel my face flushing with anger and jealousy. He looks up and sees me sitting there watching them. I turn and hurry away from them. Suddenly I run smack into a handsome stranger. He has a strange air to him. I cant seem to put my finger on it. But he seems inhuman. I cant take my eyes off of him.
"Hello" He says in a low voice.
"Hi!" I squeak out.
"What is your name?" He asks me.
Vampire, I decide. Thats what he reminds me of. I had met one two years ago. He had saved me from a guy who was stalking me. But he had been much older than this guy.
"Victoria" I told him. He smiles at me.
"I'm Vixon." He puts out his hand. "Can you show me to my first class?"
I nod. "Sure."
"Thank you, love." My heart skips a beat when he says love. Then, I don't know why, but for some reason I lean up and kiss him on the cheek. He stiffens.
"Don't worry." I whisper in his ear, my arms wrapped around his neck. "I know what you are. And I'm not afraid of you."
I can feel his breath quicken. "I don't know what you are talking about." He pulls away from me.
"I know what you are and I'm not afraid of you. I know you wont harm me."
He steps away from me. "I have no idea what you are talking about!" He growls. His face darkens. I can see something in his face. "Stay away from me." Then he turns and takes off.
"Wow. Good going with the new guy, Vic." Says a voice behind me. Tyler Shunning. I turn to face him. "And I thought you were totally going to hit it off with him. Aw well, too bad. Now you'll have to deal with ME" He gives me one of his gorgeous crooked smiles. I sigh.
"Oh Ty," I whisper. "You know it'll never work out. We're just two completely different people. You are the prince of our school. The hot guy that all of the girls fall for. And I'm just that nerdy girl who everyone thinks of as an oddball. And yes," I continue when he opens his mouth, surprised that I knew that everyone calls me that. "I know thats what people call me. I HAVE heard them talk you know, Ty… Don't think I don't know what people are saying behind my back. "She's so stupid!" "Oh my god! I cant believe that she thinks vampires are REAL! How stupid can you get?" "She really believes that she's going to find her "True love?" Your kidding me!" Yes I know the things they say Tyler. And I don't care. I know that there are vampires. I know that I probably wont find my true love ever but, It doesn't matter. And I know that the man I just talked to is a vampire. You don't have to be nice to me Tyler. I know I don't deserve it. But thank you for trying to be my friend. I appreciate it." And I walk away, tears rolling down my cheeks. He doesn't try to come after me, however, because he gets blocked by Brittany Miller. Brittany Miller is gorgeous and she's been after Tyler for like ever but, well in her opinion at least, I apparently keep getting in the way. It always makes me laugh. ME get in HER way? Hm, I'd love for that day to happen. I look around to see one of my best friends Melany Hall sitting on a bench. I start to walk toward her but right then, the new guy, Vixen walks over to where she is sitting and sits down next to her and I can tell that he is flirting with her. I sigh and turn away. Of course he would like HER! Who wouldn't? She is GORGEOUS. I feel tears run down my face even harder.

After school I walk toward my car, but before I can get there someone gets in my way.
"Excuse me." I say, trying to walk by him. I had been trying to avoid him the whole day but I had like so many classes with him and I sit next to him in like three of them. I sigh. "Why do you insist on bothering me so much?" I ask him, annoyed. He studies my face.
"Whats up with you?" He asks, laughing. I cross my arms.
"I know that you are a vampire! And I don't care if you want to call me crazy or whatever! Just leave me alone!" I start to tear up. I don't care what he thinks of me. I don't care what ANYONE thinks of me, I try to convince myself. Even though I know that its not the truth. I take off my glasses and wipe them. Then I step around him, hop in my car and drive off.

Dear Diary,
It's been a week since Vixen came to my school. I feel like I'm in a living hell. Oh please, somebody save me. Me and Melany went shopping yesterday. She tells me that she's got a date for the dance but she wont tell me who. Ha! Great best friend. I wish I had a date but everyone thinks I'm a nerdy oddball. I don't even understand why Melany is friends with me. She could be so popular if she wasn't. She's the most gorgeous girl at our school. Everyone thinks so. They just think she's like stupid for being friends with me. Same with Tyler. He's kind of been getting on my nerves lately. He wont stop following me around. He acts like he's in love with me but, how can he be? Im a stupid oddball loser! I hate this. Why does he do this to me? Well at least Vixen has been leaving me alone lately. Oh my god! I just realized who Melany's date is! Oh, I'm going to kill her. Not literally but, I cant hang out with her for a while now. Well I have to go. Goodnight Diary. Thank you for listening to me.

I wake up on saturday and stretch my arms. Why do I feel like my head is going to explode? Then I look over and see Tyler Shunning laying next to me. I scream and jump out of the bed. To my horror I was naked.
"Oh my god! What the hell are you doing in my bed?" I shriek at him.
"Chillax babe." He tells me, calmly. "Remember? Last night after the party? I asked you if I could come over for the night. And since your parents were gone you said yes."
Oh my god. I did do that! I stare at him as he gets up. God is he hot. I continue staring at him then realize how stupid I must look. I look away. What is he doing in here with a girl like me? Im such a loser.
"Why are you here Ty?" I ask him, narrowing my eyes. "Are you trying to make me seem like an even bigger fool? Because if you are then good job. Its working. Are you happy now?" I feel tears rolling down my face once again. This is so annoying. He grabs me and lifts my face so that I'm looking him right in the eyes.
"Victoria! What the hell are you talking about? I would NEVER hurt you! I love you! I really truly love you! You are amazing! You are the best person in my life. I would DIE for you!" He holds me close.
I sob. Why is he doing this to me? "That was the old me you were in love with." I whisper against his chest. "The popular beautiful non-nerdy me. You don't love this new me. You never have and you never will. I'm such a loser Tyler! Why would you love me? I'm nothing compared to you. I'm ugly, I have to wear glasses, I have braces, I'm not beautiful. That vampire must have cursed me. Because ever since I met him I have been like this. I HATE it!"
"I don't." He whispers in my ear. "I like this new and improved you better than the old one. And you ARE beautiful Vic. I know that you don't want to believe it but its the truth. Why do you think everyone is so mean to you? Its not 'cause they think your a loser, its 'cause their jealous of you. Everyone wishes they could either be like you or have you as a girlfriend. You are so amazing and perfect."
I laugh. "I'm not perfect Ty."
"No one is." He nods. "I'm not perfect either. Even though everyone thinks I am. I have so many bad qualities Vic. I can be such a bad person. My life isn't perfect either. My parents are always fighting. I have been abused so many times. I know that I will die soon. The doctor has predicted it. I only have a year at the most left. The one last thing that would make my life complete would be if you would at least tell me what you think of me. If you would at least kiss me, just once. Last night was great but it wasn't YOU. It was you with too many drinks in you."
Tears roll down my face. Everyone knows that he has limited time left in his life. I take a step toward him. Then I wrap my arms around him and press my face into his, our lips meeting. I kiss him like I've never kissed anyone before. I do love him. I really do. I kiss him harder and harder, pressing my body against
