My eyes fluttered open, I could hear the birds tweeting from miles away, and the buzzing of a fly.

I located the fly with ease, it was so small but I saw every detail of it, even it's thin hairs.

My feet swung off the side of the bed, I didn't know where I was.

I walked to the big oak door and opened it, accidentally I pulled it off its hinges and held it.

I dropped it on the floor with a loud bang, slowly I walked I over it.

I tip toed down the stairs so lightly, light burst blinding me as I entered the living room.

"Abel stay there" Eric said softly and quietly, he swung the curtains to cover the windows.

"How long have I been here?" I asked him, he looked at me with amazement.

"Uh, um, three days" he stuttered, why was he in so much shock.

I looked at myself in the mirror, I fell in love with my reflection.

My lips were a rose color just like my cheeks, my face was smooth, it looked like if you touched it you would be touching marble.

My hair was a lighter brown, and my eyelashes were longer, my bone structure was so much bolder.

The yellow specs in my eyes were now a deep golden, like gold coins at the bottom of the ocean.

I was so beautiful, every last bit of me, even my rotting had disappeared, and my nails had grown back.

I tore my gaze from the mirror, "three days?" my voice said horse.

"Yeah, Simon told your mom that you were staying at his" Eric said softly.

"Okay, I need to kill those guys who killed me though" I said with a grin.

I felt different, stronger, fearless, and there was no way I was letting anyone try and kill me again.

"No point Abel, I glamoured all of them to forget killing you and everything after that" Eric said.

Anger coursed through me, "even Simon and Tim" I said quickly, he shook his head.

"Well I better be getting home" I said softly as I walked towards the door.

"I wouldn't do that" he said, I swung open the door, the warm sun caressed my skin, it felt so good.

"What the hell" he said, everything rushed back to my mind, I shouldn't be able to do this.

"How are you walking in the sun" he said, he took off his ring and put his hand into a beam of light.

It started to sizzle, he yanked it back and out the ring on, "and you still have a heart beat" he said.

"Perfect so I can go home" I said with a smile, he closed the door quickly.

"I wouldn't, regardless of you being a living vampire, doesn't mean your blood lust is gone" he said.

"Well maybe it does" I said, he walked into his kitchen and came out with a bag of blood.

He poked a hole in it, i jumped for it, he stuck out his hand, and held me back.

"It's even harder with people" he said, I rolled my eyes and listened to him, we did need to figure everything out before I went into civilization.

We stood in the middle of his backyard, he had a lot of land so no one would see us.

"First we need to see your limits" he said he dragged a huge piece of metal and put it on the floor.

He put out his hand so we could arm wrestle, he flinched before he touched me.

My hand grasped his, I used half my strength and we stayed half way, I could tell he was struggling at his full capacity.

His eyes widened when I put in three quarters and slammed his hand into the metal.

The broken bones in his hand started healing immediately, "Jesus Christ, you're strong" he said.

"I wasn't even putting that much effort in" I said, he swallowed nervously.

"Okay race around the estate twice" he said, we began running, the warm air felt so good on my face.

Before I knew it I was about to lap him, I ran at full speed because it felt good.

"I hope to god you weren't holding back" he said, I was gasping for air.

"No, I was trying my hardest" I panted, he collapsed next to me with relief.

"Abe honestly I haven't seen power like this since I last saw an original warrior from my tribe" he said.

"So what do you think that means" I asked, he shook his head and shrugged as he sat up.

"I have no idea, but we'll get to the bottom of it together" Eric said smiling at me.

"Thanks, so can you teach me some vampire tricks like glamour" i asked, he laughed.

"Save that for next week, the more energy you use the more you need to feed" he said.

My stomach rumbled, and my throat burned a bit, he winked at me and put his hand out to me.

He pulled me up with force, my chest collided with his, his eyes gazed into mine.

He shook his head and turned around, "there are blood bags in the cooler under the sink" he said as he ran up stairs.

I walked to the kitchen, I was so hungry, I opened the cooler and took out a blood bag.

I bit into it with my fangs, as it poured into my mouth I felt that I was losing myself.

A grin forced it's way on my face as I was no longer in control of my body, well this might be a problem.

(Tim's POV)

Shelly Guyer was the one of the prettiest girls in school, and was clearly my date to the dance.

She stood in my bedroom, her blue dress complimented her eyes, they were a pale blue.

"You ready to go?" I asked her, she smiled and jumped up, she was always so dramatic.

Probably cause she did drugs, she was the biggest dealer in school, one kid over dosed on her drugs.

Everyone knew it but ignored it cause she was hot, I put my arm around her neck.

My real mom took pictures on her old camera when we got to the bottom of the stairs.

She was poor, but she was just as caring then ten of my dads put together.

She hugged me and kissed her on the cheek as we walked out, we got in my Lamborghini and drove to the dance.

It was actually quite decent and for a couple of hours my mind was Abel free.

I smiled as she grinded on me, all the boys on the team clapped and winked at me.

I laughed, it was fun, the most normal my life had been since Abel turned into a vampire.

But he was dead now, the first day I was scared that he's come back, but three days had passed.

None of the boys remembered him, at first I thought it was a joke, but maybe he did some kind of vampire magic to them.

But all in all it was definitely a better place now, "want a drink?" I asked her, she nodded and I was on my way.

I got two waters, I heard gasping and chatter above the music which was pretty hard since the music was so loud.

"Do you see him. he's so gorgeous. what happened to him?" was what I heard as I searched for my date.

Who were they talking about, in the middle of the dance floor danced Abel.

My heart skipped a best and butterflies exploded in my stomach when I saw him.

This has never in my life happened to me, his beauty captivated me, he was by far the most beautiful thing in the world.

He wore gray jeans, a plain white shirt, and a black jacket that I knew belonged to Eric, that made me a little jealous.

Everyone just watched him dance, clearly they were just as captivated, but I guaranteed that no one felt like I did.

He danced with a huge white smile on his gorgeous face and his eyes were shut.

His smile grew, I tilted my head admiring him, why was this happening to me, I mean, I know I'm not gay.

His eyes opened while he directly stared at me, people started to dance normally now.

The captivation and shock had worn off on them, why not on me, some people still watched his every move.

He used his finger to motion me over, angrily I stormed up to him, he smiled and looked me dead in the eyes.

My attraction towards him fueled my anger, "what are you doing!?" I yelled at him.

"I can hear you perfectly you don't have to yell" he said with a smile, his eyes started to glow red and with his smile he flashed his fangs.

"Then answer my question vampire" I said to him, he laughed and opened his mouth wide.

"Well aren't you a smart boy" he said, licking his fangs, I rolled my eyes, I wasn't scared of him.

Clearly he was amazed that I was smart enough to put two and two together.

"Stop playing games and answer my fucking question" I said looking down at him, he was shorter than the other guys.

"I'm dancing, what does it look like" he sighed sarcastically, his red eyes playfully gazed into mine

"You know what I mean!" I said quietly, he smiled and looked like he was thinking.

"Oh well see when your friend staked me I was actually in transition, I was prepared to die by myself" he said.

"But after he staked me Simon, you know Simon right?, well he let me feed on him and the transition was complete" he continued.

"Ta da a super powerful vampire, for the most part, you see I'm a lot stronger than the others" he finished.

"What did you do to Simon" I said with hate, anger made my blood boil.

"Oh don't worry babe, I would never hurt Simon, he's my friend" he said, I knew he was being honest.

"So dance with me" he ordered, I took a step back, there was no way I was dancing with it.

"Look I said I would never hurt Simon, everyone else in this school is nothing to me, and I will make it rain blood in this school if I don't get what I want" he said coldly, his face was emotionless.

"I'm not dancing with you" I said, he admired his perfect nails and then looked around.

"How about her, you two came together I hear, it would be sad if an innocent was to have a little accident" he said pointing to my date.

My arms hands slowly grabbed his waist and we swayed, his hands gripped the back of my neck.

I could tell he was trying hard to hold his strength back but his grip was still so strong.

"So Timmy, how have you been lately" he asked me with a smile, he buried his head in my chest.

I wanted to barf, never in my life would I have thought this fag would ever touch me.

I chose not to answer, "okay that's good, how's football, your hand looks a lot better" he said softly.

"Sorry about that by the way, I'm trying this thing where I forgive everyone for what they've done to me, so it would mean the world if you forgave me too" he said.

I continued to not answer him, damn he could hold up a good conversation with himself.

"I know you hear me" he said looking up to me and then putting his head back on my chest, everyone was watching us, this was so humiliating.

"Fair enough" he said, I don't see why he hadn't threatened me to talk to him.

"I guess I deserve it, you don't have to say anything, I hear your heart skipping beats every time I talk" he said.

I had had enough, I pushed him off me, he hadn't gone far at all, he was only like three inches away from me.

"Okay what the fuck is your problem!?" I yelled at him, his face showed genuine hurt.

"What do you mean" he sighed defeated, I grinned at seeing this finally.

"I mean you're trying to use your vampire powers to make me like you but it won't work, I'm not a fag!" I yelled at him.

His red eyes faded to reveal even more beautiful eyes, the gold in his eyes reflected the light.

"Tim, I never used any mind control on you" he said hurt, I saw tears well in his eyes.

"I know I may toy with you, and threaten you, but that's all for revenge, I'm not a monster" he added.

"Everything you feel about me is genuine, I never forced you to feel that way" he said.

"Like I said, I'm sorry I tortured you, but I'm not a killer or evil, and I won't ever try to hurt you, I'm done with all that revenge" he said genuinely.

A tear fell down his beautiful face, "I'm really sorry" he said, more tears cascaded.

He turned around and quickly walked out of the dance, I had always wanted to see him emotionally in pain.

And it finally happened, he finally cried, I've succeeded, so why do I feel so fucking bad.

(My POV)

I was a monster, this torturing thing wasn't me, why had I ever done that.

I promised I would never in my life make anyone feel the way I have.

But that's exactly what I did, I felt tears falling down my face, I started losing my humanity.

I hurt him, I broke his hand, scared him, id done everything he's done to me, but that doesn't make me the bigger person.

I'm worse than him, using my power to deliberately hurt others, well I promise I'll never do it again.

I now knew what Eric meant by he would help me through this, just because I'm a monster, doesn't mean I have to do monstrous things.

God this blood was changing my body, but I was changing my mind, blood was clouding my judgement.

From here on out I'll never let that monster come back, I'll never be selfish or greedy, I'll just be me, only less weak.

I owed someone a visit, I jumped to Simons window and opened it, he spun so quickly.

"Dude you gave me a heart attack!" he yelled, I laughed, gosh I'd missed him.

"How's your neck?" I asked as I sat on his bed, he say at his study desk, he was doing homework.

"Eric gave me some of his blood, enough to heal me but not turn me" he added quickly.

I nodded, "how is it?" He asked me, I knew exactly what he meant, I lifted my hand.

"It's so different" I said, those few words had so much meaning and he understood exactly what I meant.

"I'm here for you man" he said, he got up and hugged me, my arms wrapped around him.

He smelled like pine needles, he was so warm, as was his heart, he had helped me and I had helped him.

He got up and walked across his room and turned on the tv, "movie night?" he asked.

I nodded and laid on the bed, my mom wasn't expecting me until the end of the week.

He came and collapsed on the bed next to me, I could tell he hadn't slept for a while because he was already half asleep after three minutes.

"Hey Abe" he mumbled, I looked at him, his eyes were shut, his blond hair was a little darker.

"Yeah?" I answered him softly, he smiled hearing my voice.

"You look great, no homo" he said with a tired laugh, I laughed with him, I would've hit him but it was still a little hard for me to control my strength.

"No but for real I'm glad you're still here, you and I until the end bud" he said softly.

"You and I until the end" I said back to him, he smiled and passed out.

I closed my eyes and before I knew it I was asleep, finally I had gone to sleep with a clear and happy mind.
