"Well then I'm sorry it happened, at all." He says and looks at her. "But uh... You know if you need someone, or anything, that offer still stands that you can talk to me. And if you need uh, y'know, blood... I don't mind giving that either. Mainly because it'll mean that you won't hurt someone else. I can take it."


Alex sighs, "You have to understand though Jessica. If any of my line found out that I was remotely associated with vampires, or dark witches even, you have to understand what that would mean for me."

 

[CrystalSmith]

Alice shrugs, "I'll be fine. I just need to accept it and become what is expected of me, a heartless bitch because that's what a dark being would be like, right?" She asks.


Jessica growls, "She was our friend, Alex! Vampire or not and hey you never know, we could have changed her, she could have been good." She says.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

"I don't know. Apparently I'm a dark being, apparently my entire line is dark according to Alex. Do I seem like a completely heartless bitch to you? I'm pretty sure you can still be a dark being but still be nice, right? I don't know, I'm new to all this just like you are." He pouts a little and rests his head on his hand, his elbow propping his arm up by resting on the arm of the bench.


Alex shakes his head. "The vampires that roam this town are never good, or do I need to remind you about what happened to my sister?" He says, slowly. "And she can never be good. Not with the influence of that son of a bitch. It can't just be coincidental that these two dark beings managed to meet each other the day she completed transformation. Nothing a coincidence when a witch is involved."

 

[CrystalSmith]

Alice sighs slowly, "Well, I don't like being dark! It's not fun." She says looking at him and sighing again, "I'm hungry, and thirsty and my thoughts are revolved around hurting someone." She mutters, taking a deep breath.


Jessica sighs, "Alice isn't like them Alex, she's still Human. She still had her humanity, she was feeling guilty Alex! Have you ever met a guilty vampire? Exactly." She mutters.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

"I think you'll always be hungry." Fenton mumbles, looking at the floor, "but whatever, if you need it, you can have it, alright. Just don't be offended when I have to like, dark blast you or something to make you get off me." He laughs a little.


"She won't feel guilty for long!" Alex yells, shaking his head.

 

[CrystalSmith]

Alice shakes her head, "No, I'm not hurting you or anyone, I don't care if it kills me, I'm not biting anyone." She mutters looking at the sky.


Jessica stares at him, "Did you see her? She couldn't even look at someone without saying anything." She says.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

"Fine then, you don't have to bite me if that's what you want. But you're still feeding, and you're still gonna stay alive." He says, reaching into his bag, he pulls out a small box and opens it. Different assortments of razors inside. "Like I said, you don't have to bite me, or hurt me. I can do it to myself and then you can drink."


"I don't think she's good news anymore, Jess." Alex sighs, "if you want to stick around, waiting for someone to get killed, so be it, but count me out."

 

[CrystalSmith]

Alice looks at him and shakes her head, "No, I'm not drinking your blood, I don't want you to be hurt." She says quietly, guilt filling her.


Jessica stares at him, "Why are you so keen to give up on her?" She asks angrily.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

Fenton puts the box away again. "And I don't want you to die. Plus, from what I hear, you'll hurt someone else if you dont hurt me." He shrugs his shoulders, "and I'm offering."


Alex glares at her, "because in my family, association with dark magic or beings is a crime. I was raised to believe that people like Alice and Fenton and so many others in this school are bad news, not to be messed with, spoken to, you name it!"

 

[CrystalSmith]

Alice shrugs, "I don't care! I'm not hurting anyone Fenton." She says quietly before looking at the floor. She brings a hand through her hair and sighs.


Jessica stares at him, "Fine, we'll leave her. We'll let her get on with it shall we?" She asks.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

"You won't be hurting anyone." He says, quietly, "I don't count. In my eyes, I'm not being hurt, I'm helping a friend. I'm helping you control yourself, and I'm helping other people. Who knows what you'll do when you get really hungry, Alice..." He sighs.


Alex nods his head, "that's what I'm doing, but you don't have to. I know what your opinions on her are. She's your best friend. I get that. But I can't do this." He shrugs his shoulders. "Do what you want, I'm already out." He begins to walk away.

 

[CrystalSmith]

Alice shakes her head, "No, I might away lock myself away." She mutters.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

Fenton shakes his head. "Don't you dare. You have a life to live even if you're a vampire. So what? Y'know? So what if you have to drink blood to live? It can't be that bad."

 

[CrystalSmith]

Alice sighs, "No, I'll hurt people. I don't want to hurt anyone. Everyone hates me." She murmurs.


Jessica sighs and heads back to class.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

"I don't hate you, and I'm pretty sure that Jessica doesn't hate you. And if you work with us here, then you won't hurt anyone, alright? We can make sure that you don't hurt anyone." He says, smiling at her sympathetically.

 

[CrystalSmith]

Alice nods slowly, wiping her eyes, "Okay." She murmurs quietly looking at the sky. She brings a hand through her hair again.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

"We've got lunch next, haven't we?" He asks her, trying to get her mind away from her vampireness. "Does this school serve good food or nah? My last school, damn you would have thought it was prison food or some shit, I tell ya."

 

[CrystalSmith]

Alice nods and smiles weakly, "Yeah, they serve alright food actually." She murmurs, looking at him and sighing. She rubs her face slowly, her throat aching still.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

"You're still hungry..." He mumbles, looking at her and sighing. "You know, I really really don't mind if you want to." He says, gesturing to his wrist. "I really don't."

 

[CrystalSmith]

Alice shakes her head, "No, I'll be fine. I just don't think that this feeling is ever going to go." She mumbles.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

"Then you're going to have to learn to control it. You should seriously ask your mother some questions, or find out who in the school is a vampire, and then ask them some things. Considering that I'm not experienced with any of this shit, I can't really help you..." He says and shrugs his shoulders.

 

[CrystalSmith]

Alice sighs, looking around, "I don't like this, what if I can't control it, what if I hurt someone." She says quietly. She looks at the floor, she didn't even know who was a vampire in the school, never mind who to trust.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

"I won't let you hurt anyone, I promise, okay?" He says, smiling reassuringly. He goes into his backpack, pulling out his mobile phone. He sends a text to his aunt; much like the one he'd sent about visions. All he sent was 'Vampires?'

 

[CrystalSmith]

Alice sighs and nods, "Okay, thanks." She murmurs softly, letting her thoughts wander off. She sighs again, "Why do I feel like everything around me is going wrong? I mean I just lost my friends." She mutters.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

"I don't think you lost your friends exactly. I think you just lost Alex. He's the one opposed to all the dark shit. Pretty sure that Jessica cares enough about you to stay." He says, and bites his lip. "And you gained me to replace Alex anyway, a witch for a witch."
