An Empty Heart & A Bookworm

[WeepingFangirl]

"Shit" Vinny murmured under her breath as she made her way out the public library. The cold autumn winds immediately greeted her when she passed through the doubled front doors. She threw up her hoodie for some warmth, and prayed that it wasn't too cold tonight because all she had on was a sweat jacket and acid washed blue jeans for protection. She looked at her watch and saw that it was already 11pm, which only made her curse under her breath even more. She started her finale year of high school tomorrow and she had only planned on staying at the library till 9. But she got caught up reading a book about important historical figures, and she just couldn't put it down! Damn you George Washington for being so great, she thought exasperated. Now she was going to have to start her senior year tired and disgruntled.

She quickly made her way to the parking lot of the library. God, why did she have to park so far away? Her gaze shifted to the sky for a moment and saw that the night sky was freckled with millions of tiny bright stars. She smiled, thinking this was a good omen. Stars were never usually out at this time of night. Maybe her day wouldn't be so bad tomorrow. When she reached her car, which was parked so conveniently in the last row, she started to fumble in her purse for her keys. Vinny had to admit, she wasn't the most cleanest person in the world. She had jumbles of notebook paper, a few candy wrappers, and pencils everywhere in the bag. Thankfully, she finally fished out her keys from amidst the mess. "Boo-yah" She proclaimed.

She went to unlock her car, but before she could , she heard a sudden burst of coughing. She looked up, only to see a few feet away from her, a figure holding their stomach. They had their hood up, and because their head was looking towards the floor she couldn't quite get a good look of the person. Although, with the muscular build, and broad shoulders she could tell it was man. "Are you okay man?" She called out. He continued to hack up a storm, but manged to get out the words , "Help me" before toppling over on the ground, face first. She gasped, and ran over without thinking. Logically this was a bad move she realized, but how could she just leave him like that? She had morals.

She quickly made her way to the figure and got on her knees, and started to pat the strangers back, and tried to move him. "Oh my god, are you okay?" Right when she asked that, the figure sprang up, and grabbed her by her neck. He clenched his grip over her throat, so much so that she began to stop breathing. The figure shot his head up, and Vinny was frozen with fear. He looked to be about her age, maybe younger...with bright crimson eyes. "Now I am sweet heart."He chuckled, holding her neck even tighter.

So much was happening that she hardly had time to even process everything that was going on. All she knew was...she was going to die.

A puff of white clouds escaped the ruby red lips of Violette as she took another hit off her menthol cigarette. The cold weather doesn't phase her for her skin was already so ice cold.... She was standing across the street from the public library. There wasn't really anywhere she wanted to go. Home... lonely... She knew her family was probably already waiting up wondering where she was, but... the truth of the matter was Violette didn't care. She wanted to stay out at long as she wanted... Maybe even get some... dinner while she was out. Her adopted father, Mr. Alexander Reigns would disapprove of her biting into the skin of a mortal. But, Violette was becoming tired of feeding off defenseless animals. She wanted thrill and nothing to satisfy her.


Another white cloud enters the dark black sky as Violette started to put the cigarette out on the cement. Better start making my way home before I get an earful. Violette thought. She placed her hands inside her black leather jacket that barely covered over her stomach as she started to walk down the long sidewalk her stiletto black heels clicking against the concrete as she walked.


Before she passed the library, she heard muffling and struggled movements. She paused for a moment to listen to it. Do I ignore it or do I actually help out? She heard a girl whimper as Violette groans lowly. Damn this caring dead heart of mine. She thought.


She walked over to the alley where she sees a man holding the neck of a young Lady. Violette's ice blue eyes pierce into the darkness as she looked at them. "Hey! Dip shit!" She called over to him. "Do you always prey on little girls you scumbag!?" She shouted slowly moving closer to him.

The boy dropped the grip he had over her, roughly pushing her aside, when he heard a shout. Vinny choked for air gripping the ground as she shook furiously. So many things passed through her mind as she struggled for air, but first thing on top of her list was finding out who saved her. She looked up only to see her attacker charging at a girl that looked to be her age. "Get away from here!" She yelled at the girl, "You're going to get hurt!" She grabbed her purse and threw it at the stranger, but it hardly went anymore, and instead landed a foot away from her. It was futile attempt but she wanted to do something to help the poor girl. She didn't want her getting hurt, or worse.


"Please run away" She yelled. She tried to get on her feet, but it was a pointless attempt. She was still too weak from the lack of oxygen she faced only moments before. God, what was she to do?

As the man charges at Violette, Violette spins out of his way as her foot slides underneath the mans feet tripping him onto the hard Cement. Violette turned to look at the man with her hands on her hips. "Listen... You are really wasting your time on this... I mean you can keep trying but I promise it will not end well for you." She threatened.
