Summer Camp,Girl,Hot Vampire, Gotta Be Trouble

Mike took a deep breath that he didn't need. He looked me in the eyes and soon I was mesmerized. He then smiled and began to speak.

"I was born on June 13th, Friday the 13th in 1753. My parents were English but they went on a voyage and somehow landed in Australia. Where I was born. Their ship was wrecked but the natives were kind and let my parents and I stay in their village. We became accustomed to their ways. Speaking their language and such. My mother was a teacher so she taught me to read and write." he paused with a sullen smile and went on.

"The natives were not free in a sense. They were plagued or almost ruled by a monster. They said the monster lived in the deepest part of the jungle. No one ever traveled there in fear of becoming the monster's meal. There were legends that the monster was bone white, ice cold, and the appearance of an angel. They knew its deception and they knew what it ate...or drank." he leveled his look to see my understanding in what he said. I did not look away and he went on as if he never stopped.

"I was eighteen. To old to believe in these old tales. I went into the jungle one night. I was frustrated with all the fear and I wanted to prove them wrong. I did not come back that night. I found what they had feared. The dark angel. The blood drinker. The vampire. He was ravage with thirst and my attempt to fight him off was futile. No one heard my cries as he drunk his full. Emptiness of blood turned to a burning. So harsh I wish death would come. When the burning stopped it was as if I was born again and I guess in a way I was. Everything was different; sight, touch, taste, sound! I was so awed by a leaf I didn't even see the vampire standing there watching me. He told me his name was Demetrius. He told me what I was and what I could do but then he vanished. He did not tell me about the thirst. My throat was so dry of thirst. I wondered if the burning had come back. It didn't of course. I soon found myself back a the village. Everyone cheered for my safe return but those cheers soon turned to screams. My parents were the first to scream but I suck them both dry before I even knew what I was doing." Mike seemed to almost choke on the last word. I rapped my arms around him hoping to ease his pain. He was stiff and cold but he soon hugged me back with little strength. I backed away when I noticed his need to continue.

"I left after that. For centuries I've been roaming this earth. Trying to do the best I can at living. I never knew I was also searching for someone. Someone who was not even born yet." he finished with a smile that I looked away in my mind to store forever.

"I'm really sorry about your..." I tried to say but he put his finger on my lips before I could finish.

"Don't be. It was a long time ago. Its just sometimes it hits me like a bullet. So fast I didn't even know it was coming." he said with that sullen smile.

"Shouldn't you say vampire instead of bullet 'cause I'm pretty sure your faster than a bullet." I said with a smile trying to lighten the mood.

It worked he smiled that million and said,"Yeah, I guess your right."

"You know all that still doesn't explain how the hell you of all people ended up as a camp councilor." I said frustrated,

"It was kind of a random thing. Actually this is kind of my vacation. I saw a flier for this place one day and was like,'what the hell'. I didn't have anything else to do." he said nonchalantly.

"Hmmm. This is the last place I would come for vacation." I said smugly.

"Why? Your here aren't you?" he asked.

"Yeah! But not of my own free will. If it was up to me I'd be at a Paramore concert right now in Atlanta!" I said exasperated.

"This might sound corny but I'm glad you somehow got stuck here." he said looking down at his hands in his lap. Almost like he's ashamed of what he said.

"I'm glad to." I said softly and I somehow found myself blushing as he looked up with his eyes in full force.

"Can You tell me about yourself?" he asked shyly. I resisted the urge to laugh at his cuteness (or shall I say hotness) when hes shy.

"What do you want to know?" I asked.

He hesitated then stated, "Everything."

"Ok." I said and I proceeded to tell him 'everything'; from my Twilight fetish, to my favorite music. I told him about my parents being unfair but parent like. I told him about my friends and school. I told him mt dreams of being a rock singer, my fear of spiders and rubber bands, my obsession for everything sweet, and I even told him about when I cut. Its an on and off thing but the scars will always be there.

He wasn't happy at that part. He stared at me with shock and anger but then with sadness but not pitty like some would look. He kissed every scar on my arm. Then he kissed my lips softly.

"Will you promise me you sill never cut yourself again, Cassie?" he asked almost begged. Lots of people have asked me this and I promised knowing it was a promise I couldn't keep but right then I took a vow when I answered his plea.

"I promise." I vowed to never brake that promise.

"Thank you." he said softly. I decided to get on a new topic. My cutting discussion was making me uncomfortable.

"Mike, when you roamed around did anyone ever catch your eye?" I asked shyly. He was taken by surprise by my question but soon answered.

"There were some distractions but no one really caught my eye. he said in his nonchalant voice.

"Did anyone ever catch your eye?" he asked me.

"Yes, but he wasn't that great." I said slyly.

"Oh really?" he asked.

"Yep." I said with a smirk.

"Cassie, this might seem like a personal question but are you...?" he tried to ask but answered his unfinished question.

"Yes, I am a virgin." I said fast, "Are you?" I asked.

"Yes, I am." he said almost as if he was uncomfortable with the subject.

"Mike." I said so he would lock at me. He turned his head again. When he turned back and was confused but enjoying it other wise.

"You are by far the shyest vampire I have ever met." I said when our kiss ended.

" I'm sorry. I'm just so new to all of this, 'liking someone' thing." he said with an embarrassed smile.

"Oh , so you like me?" I asked playing dumb.

"Isn't it obvious?" he asked in fake surprise.

"Yeah, it is. " I said turning to look out the window.

"Oh man. Its dark outside already!" I whined.

"Its not dark yet. the sun is still out." he said plainly.

"Yeah, barely." I replied. The sky was filled with purples and pinks and I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"What's so funny?" Mike asked confused.

I smiled a goofy smile and turned to him and said, "It's Twilight." and then he was laughing with me as the sun slipped away into the horizon.
