"He is losing blood fast!"
"My boy! My poor little boy!"
"Where is it all going?"
"Mom? What wrong wit Biwwy?"
Aiden could hear everything so clear. He did not know what was going on. Who is Billy?? When he finally realized what he was doing he was terrified and backed away quickly. What the HELL?? He saw four doctors and a family trying to save the young boy he was trying to have for dinner. His mom was right and he couldn't believe it. There were quite sobs coming from the corner of the room. When the girl looked up he realized who it was. It was his old girlfriend Lacey back from Lambertville. When he left he said he did not what to make her sad then, he left.She looked like she had been crying for hours, no, days.
"Not Billy too!" She looked up to the ceiling. "First Aiden, now Billy." She half sobbed. He was out of her line of vision. He knew she couldn't see him, but he couldn't stand hurting her and watching it happen. She got up and ran out. Aiden followed.
Every time she looked back, he would hide. When she finally stopped in a near by alley. She sunk to the ground. Aiden cautiously approached her.
"Oh Lacey!" He wanted to die.
"Who is that? Who is there? Dad? Dad? I swear your scarring me." Lacey look frightened.
As Aiden stepped away from the shadows he said tentatively, "Can you hear me?"
"Aiden? No you...they said...no. I though..you..were..dead......like Billy." She sobbed.
"You can see me?"
"Yeah why?"
"Lacey!" He Stood her up and hugged her. Just as her dad walked down the alley.
"Lacey, are you okay?"
"Yeah. better anyway since Aiden showed up." Lacey answered relieved that Aiden was there.
"Honey, Aiden's dead. No one is here." He said sorrowful.
"But," She looked at Aiden as he franticly tried to explain. "He is right here." She said as she reached up to the top of his head and fluffed his hair.
"No hone, I am so sorry. Come on, you mom needs us." Aiden followed them back to the hospital no bothering to hide. He didn't understand what was going on. He was overjoued that he could have his Lacey back, but didn't understand. When they got back to the hospital, Lacey's parents went to the room with Billy. Lacey stayed with Aiden.
"What do you mean dead?" They had the same conversation as Aiden had early that day. Lacey was still sobbing.
" I will understand if you hate me, I do, really. I mean, I am a vampire, I hate me."
"Aiden, I couldn't be happier."
"Do you believe me?"
"Yes,"
"How,"
"Because," She flashed her fangs, " Me too."
