The Blood of a vampire

She was running so fast that she didn't know when her phone fell...

Whooshing whoo hoo

Came the sound of an owl, Bellezza stumbled and fell, this time around she got hurt. she needed a doctor to take care of her wounds.

But that was not important to her at the moment. She was alone in this forest, she needed to get out by all means.

"What kind of sound haven't I heard in this God damn forest," she said.

She stood up and continue running hoping to get a bus to the nearest town.

Bellezza knew what she saw back there in the forest wasn't a human at all.

"The fang?? Black eyes!! And those strange noises the creature made back there.

"I know for a fact that it's not a human!" She said to herself.

Running was not her hobby, back then in school she avoided anything that will lead to running, Bellezza wished she could go back in time to pay more attention to sports, especially marathon races.

The thought of Jove hit her like a stone, she fell to the ground and cried, her best friend was dead and she caused it. She was the one who brought her on this so-called adventure that got her killed.

She remembered how "the creature" back there fixed his fangs into Jove's neck... The thought of blood made her nauseous.

Bellezza looked up and saw a car coming, she was scared, tired, and hungry. She stood up adjusted herself, pulled her hands in front, and waved for the car.

It was an expensive black Volkswagen she wondered why the car owner would risk his beautiful car by coming to this bloody forest!

The car skidded to a halt in front of her...

"Oh, nice timing," she said to herself moving closer to the car.

The owner was a young guy in his early twenties, He had a black tuxedo, and his hair was black as charcoal, Bellezza was certain about a thing. Her savior was a young handsome man.

"This road isn't safe for kids, why are you here?" He asked.

"What?? Kids? Am not a kid" she said to herself.

"Please we need to leave this place immediately, if you could give me a lift I will tell you the rest of the story," she told him.

"Fine, get into the car he said," Unlocking his car.

He drove with so much speed, that she thought escaping from the forest monster was her first death trial, this guy was her second trial and final sentence.

If she could survive this drive, then death was not her calling.

She felt pain in her elbow and knee, and looking down her legs, she saw blood running down to her toes.

Bellezza turned to him and asked

"Can I borrow your first aid kit please?"

"I don't have" he answered without looking at her.

"Who does that these days? Everyone has an emergency box whether at home, school, place of work, playground, gym, in the car, and even a personal kit!" she thought to herself.

"Wait a personal kit?" She knew that she was exaggerating!

"Where is yours?" The guy asked. His eyes were still focused on the road.

"What ?? What do you mean?"

"Where is your first aid kit?" He asked again.

"Oh, I didn't say that " Bellezza knew she didn't say those words out loud, she was wondering how come he heard her.

" The first aid kit ? Or the personal kit ?".

She didn't want to lie to him, because she was in his car, what if he threw her out?? She always knew that her tongue will get her into trouble one day!

"I wasn't talking to you, those were my thoughts," she responded.

"I heard you very well, am not deaf, or are you saying...."

"Noooooooooooo" she interrupted. "You ain't deaf, your ears are perfectly working."

Maybe her mind was playing a trick on her, maybe she said it was loud, maybe she said it to him!

"Use this instead," he said giving her a piece of clothes.

"There is no first aid kit here, you can use these clothes to tie your wounds."

She took the clothes and tore them into three pieces, each for her wounds.

She tied her wounds and stopped them from bleeding.

"Thank you, you did save my life today, how am I going to repay you for this favor?! She said with a smile.

"It's easy" he answered her.

"You weren't supposed to answer that".

"But it was a question!"

"Yes, but a rhetorical question," She said. (Did he pass his literature exams at all? Or he was the president of the Big Bad Boys at school?)

"I didn't know, the question had an answer that's why I replied," he said, this time he looked at her and smiled.

She was impressed by his boyish smile, it gave her hope he was a human.

Phewwwwww...

She yawned, "how long will it take to get us to the next town?"

"Two hours, you look tired he said adjusting her seat, you can rest if you want I don't mind."

"No, am going to be awake all night don't worry about me, she yawned again!"

***

TWO Hours LATER.

"Hey, wake up we have arrived" she heard a Voice. She opened her eyes and saw lights everywhere, she heard noises from different angles, and people were selling and buying, She knew at once they were in a town.

She got out of the car and saw buses all lined up. "I think this is their bus station " she turned towards her savior to thank him

"Where are you going to after here? he asked.

"To swilleview, that's where I live she answered."

"Okay, let's go board a bus to swilleview before is too late," he told her.

"Wait, that's my town and not yours," she told him. She regrets her words as soon as they came out, "am so sorry" she apologized.

"You also live in swilleview?"

"No, it was for you he said going back to his car."

She wanted to move forward but she remembered she left her purse in the forest, she had no choice but to go back and plead with her MR SAVIOR once more.
