Chapter 12

"You have got to be kidding me" Luna protested from the back.

No one really paid attention to her anyway, everyone but Johnny Evans looked right through Luna's protest.

"We have to do this together Luna. We're a team" Johnny Evans reminded.

Luna was silent for a while, at least until Tristin motioned to the whole team that they were already there, the gate that leads to the deserted, haunted and most coveted place in Moore's creek.

"This is it team. We are here! All we have to do is walk through this gate" Tristin was so excited.

"You crazy man. That's not a gate, and there's no way I'm going in there with you" Aidan said, which came as a shock to everyone.

"No no listen Aidan. First off, it's a gate made out of thick leaves, so I'm right to call it a gate. Look, I know its not about the gate. You have to come with us. So brace yourself team, we're going in there!"

"Hell no Tristin!"

"Come on man, we all doing this to get that treasure right. Let's do it as a team?" Tristin tried to convince him.

"More like we're doing it for you Tristin. I'm not going in there, that's it"

Tristin noticed Aidan had made up his mind, so he improvised.

"Okay fine. Not all of us have to go in there. Some of y'all can stay out here, be our look out" Tristin decided.

"Now that's better. It's a good thing coz that place could be filled with ghosts and spooky shit. I didn't sign up for that" Aidan said out loud.

"Aidan, I'm sorry, but I need you in there"

"What the fuck man...you just said.."

"I know I did, but I need you man. We all do. The more, the merrier right? Besides, we would all die without you looking out for us in there" Tristin teased Aidan, making tremendous effort to convince him.

"Alright. Fine. Let's head straight in" Aidan gave in.

Luna and Johnny Evans notified the rest of the team that they would stay behind, which wasn't that much of a bother. Everyone seemed to be okay with it.

****

"So...Johnny Evans right?" Luna said through the darkness.

"Drop the last name. It's Johnny, okay?"

"Alright Johnny. It's like really dark out here"

"Yeah I can see that. This frigging treasure hunt got me sick. We've been at it for more than 12 hours now"

Luna folded her arms tightly, and went closer to the bonfire Johnny had lit for light and warmth.

She looked intently at the fire, and back at Johnny Evans, her eyes almost watering.

"Shit. What's wrong Luna?"

"I just want to go back to my tent. I'm sick of this thick asf forest. The aroma of these fresh leaves irks me, everything in this freaking place makes me want to throw up"

"I wish I could help you out. Maybe we should fuck this, and head back uhhh?"

"We could get in trouble for that" Luna said.

"Maybe I could help you"

"Uhh? How?" Luna asked, anticipating.

Johnny Evans drew closer to Luna for no just reason.

"Johnny, you're like so close to my body right now..It's..."

"What? Sexy?" Johnny flirted.

The word sexy hit hard into Luna's skull, birthing wild thoughts in her head, generating an enormous amount of excitement, sending chills that ran over her whole body.

(What the fuck. Is Johnny actually into me? A boy, this cute, sane and conscious, flirting with me. Whao, maybe Tristin could go get fucked. Who knows? Ha ha) Luna thought.

"It's chill. But is there any reason you're flirting with me"

"No real reason, why do you ask?"

"Oh, I get it now. You just trying to make me feel better. Right" Luna figured.

"Not entirely Luna Jenkins. You're pretty, young, with an amazing skin, and you're sweet too"

"I am?"

(Okay. I'm freaking out right now! Johnny Evans likes me. Me! Luna Jenkins!)

"Yeah. Can I kiss you?"

(Oh my god. This shit just got even more intense. Say something Luna. Come on girl. You get to have your first kiss right here in this shitty forest. Ain't that bad anyway)

"Sure. You can. We can. I mean... you...I.."

Johnny places a finger on Luna's lips, sealing her lips with just his finger.

"You're an amazing young lady Luna, you deserve the best" Johnny leans in, touching Luna's lips with his soft lips.

Luna wasn't a clumsy kisser, which was surprising coz this was her first kiss. She had been preparing for this ever since puberty - her first kiss! She had watched a bunch of Youtube tutorials, and had asked her elder sister Nicole so many questions just to learn how to kiss.

"Wow. That was...just as amazing as I had anticipated" Luna said, her face filled with pure joy.

"Yeah, you are one good kisser Luna. I had wanted to kiss you ever since I saw you across the campfire, and I would like to do it again"

Johnny sunk his lips into Luna Jenkins's, kissing her even more passionately. He squeezed her body with his two hands, making Luna give a soft moan. He stuck his tongue on Luna's neck, and for some reason could not get enough of her neck. He caressed it, grazed her neck with his tongue, while Luna moaned softly.

Johnny was finding it difficult to let go of Luna's neck, which was spooky, but Luna just let it slide. Well, that was until some shit happened.

"What the fuck Johnny. What was that for?" Luna yelled, as she reached for her neck with her hands.

"Did you just bite me? Like fuck, you bit me?!" Luna continued yelling.

"Yeah, I did"

"You nuts!? Shit. I'm bleeding. How, why!?"

"You're blee-ding" Johnny Evans stammered, expressing hunger.

Johnny, with great speed, grabbed Luna, bent her head exposing her neck.

Without warning, he sinks his elongated fangs into Luna's bleeding neck, sucking her blood.

Luna struggles to get away from his grip, but he was clearly stronger. She yelled inside, still kept trying to push her body away from Johnny's grip, until she couldn't struggle anymore.

"Arggghhhh. Now that's more like it" Johnny said out loud, after he drank to his satisfaction.

He let go of Luna, who couldn't keep herself up. As soon as Johnny let her go, she fell to the ground.

"Shit. Luna? Luna Jenkins?" Johnny called.

Luna made no movement to indicate she was alive, she just laid numb, on the leavy ground.

"No no. I can't deal with this shit. No Luna come on. What do fuck do I tell the others? Shit. You got to get your ass up Luna"

Johnny examines her body with his hands.

"She's alive, but barely. I had too much, enough to make her unconscious. I have to do something, coz she would die if I leave her here"

"But I can't heal her. No I can't. That shit could get really complicated"

He glances at numb Luna again, messes his hair up, feeling really confused.

"It seems I have no other choice, or do I? Hell, I hate this. I just had to feed on her"

Johnny sinks his fangs into his one of his hands, causing an outburst of his blood from his hands. He rushes to Luna's mouth, and feeds her his blood, forcing her to drink.

After a short while, Luna's fingers move slightly. It was only a matter of time before she would regain consciousness.
