After getting our food, Sophia and I sat down at a table nearby. Those around us quickly scattered, not daring to sit even a few feet away from us. The smell of the steak tickled my nose, but the scent of blood on Sophia was still very vivid in the air. Or I just have heightened senses, so I am more sensitive to it.

I bit my lip and took a bite of my steak, hoping that it would satiate my cravings. But as I chewed and chewed, I couldn’t help but frown. The meat here was different from my house, that has freshly butchered meat. I cut a piece off and sniffed it, only to put it down. I was very disappointed. “Elle? It’s not good?”

“It tastes fine but not what I was expecting. It just tastes like steak.” I sighed and placed my fork and knife down. Before grabbing the plate and standing up. “Sorry Sophia, I need to go for a walk.”

Without waiting for an answer, I got up and scraped my food in the trash before putting my dish up. Only then did I walk out of the food court and headed towards my usual spot. It seemed that Rachel had already been taken away. I am sure I will hear about it when I get back.

As I passed through the double doors leading outside, my arm was once more hugged, and the sweet scent filled my nose again. I turned to look at Sophia and felt like crying. This girl had no idea what was going on.

I really could no longer take it. I could feel my breathing becoming heavier. I pulled Sophia with me as I rushed to my normal spot, but this time, I went behind the shed where I had originally met Sophia at before.

As soon as we arrived, I spun Sophia so that she was facing me and looked at the blood on her cheek. I couldn’t stop the saliva from building up in my mouth as I swallowed hard. “Sophia what I am about to do may seem strange and I am sorry.”

“Wait. Wait! I am not ready for thi… huh?” I had licked my thumb and wiped the smear from Sophia’s cheek before sticking my thumb in my mouth and sucking on it. The blood had long dried, but it still tasted very sweet.

I could see the confusion in Sophia’s eyes as I slumped down to the ground and sucked on my thumb. “This is strange indeed…”

I couldn’t help it. I sucked every last trace of the blood off my thumb before looking up at Sophia. “I know… I can’t help it. The blood on your face was making it hard to think.”

“Blood?” Sophia wrinkled her brow and looked at me from top to bottom before kneeling down in front of me and placing a hand on my shoulder. “Will you be okay?”

“Yeah… I think. Sorry weird right? Seeing someone who craves blood?” I did not want to come out and say, hey, I am a vampire! I mean, no one would believe me.

“Your actions startled me since I thought you were going to do something else but well, everyone has their own quirks right?” Sophia forced a smile, which made me wonder if I was going to lose this new friend of mine. I could only hang my head and take a few deep breaths.

“I will try not to act like that again in front of you.” I could only say try. After all, there was no telling what the future would hold.

“It’s fine.” Sophia sat next to me and leaned her head on my shoulder. “In a way I guess it is my fault since you did seem to want to escape and I had not taken into account that I had blood on me. But now I know. So next time I smash someone I will do it so that they don’t bleed.”

I couldn’t help but chuckle. Sophia was even stranger than me. But she was turning out to be a good friend. “We should head back to class. Although I am unsure how long we will be able to stay.”

“Ah, don’t worry. They will have to call my parents to be there. And as long as you are with me no one can put the blame on you even if they want to.”

I hate it when I am right about the bad things in life. As soon as we returned to class, we were called to the principal’s office. It was there that I was met with two people who were staring daggers at me. “You little bitch, what the hell did you do to your sister’s friend!? Get on your knees and apologize!”

I looked at the woman who had just tried to force me to prostrate in front of everyone in the room and snorted. “Mrs. Thatcher, why are you trying to act all authoritative? Do you think just because we are not in the house that, I won’t revoke your momentary expenditure?”
