{Editing} The Vampire's Baby Girl

Chapter 3

(Angel's POV)
I try to lean back but I'm already as stuck in the wall as I can.
I bring my knee up and hit him hard in the crotch.
"Ahhhhhhh." He screams and stumbles back.
At that Ellie looks at me then at Mason.
I wipe my lips with my sleeve.
He kissed me.
How could he.
"I love you Angel. I have always loved you." He says coming closer.
"No. You love you're wife. You're married to her and you love her. You also have a daughter from her. Yeah, you love me, and I love you too. But, not that kind of love. We're cousins, I took you as the big brother I never had. So, you can stay as long as you want, but, just stay away from me and my daughter." I say and go sit on my bed.
"I can't fight my feelings anymore Angel. For 18 years I've been hiding my feelings for you. I can't do that anymore. I left my parents to live with you because I wanted to get closer. When you started to get clingy, I took it as a chance and left. I left because I couldn't take it anymore. There hasn't been one night, when I didn't enter your room and just watch you while you're sleeping. When I left, I went to LA. I met Danielle, and I thought she was you." He says and sits in front of me.
"What do you mean you thought she was me?"
He then take out his phone.
It's exactly like mine but white. The iPhone 6.
I could've gotten the 6 plus but I think it's too big.
He then shows me a picture. Him and Danielle.
"Oh my god." I say taking his phone in my hand.
She looks exactly like me except a bit older. Like two three years older.
Same hair I used to have before my highlights which I got last year.
Same eyes.
Same nose.
Kinda same lips. Mine are fuller.
We even have the same body type. But, she's pregnant in the picture.
I feel tears streaming down my cheek.
I'll never be able to be pregnant.
I'll never get Ellie a sister or brother.
I'll never get married.
"Why are you crying?" Mason asks wiping the tears with his thumb.
-----------------------------------------------------------
(Mason's POV)
It takes all my will not to kiss the tears away.
I look down at the phone.
Shit! It's the one where she's pregnant.
Her thumb must have swiped the picture.
"I swear I didn't get this picture. It was this one." I say and swipe my finger across the screen to get the one I got earlier.
She drops the phone on the mattress and cries on my lap.
I pull her up and hug her.
"Why do bad things happen to me?" She asks.
I run my fingers through the ends of her hair then feel a small hand press on my knee and hear a grunt.
I look and it's Ellie. She's trying to get on the bed.
"Look." I say and move her head to look at Ellie.
I then carry Ellie and place her between me and Angel.
She crawls and sits on Angel.
"Hey... Baby girl." She sniffles.
"Mama.... N....o.. No.. Cwy. Mama.. No cwy." Ellie says and lays her head on Angels chest.
"I'll leave you two alone." I say and leave the room.
~*~
I am laying on the bed but I can't sleep.
I glance at the clock its 11 pm.
I sigh and turn on my side.
The door creeks open.
I close my eyes and pretend to be sleeping.
"Mason?" Angel comes in slowly trying not to wake me up.
She really is an angel.
She comes and shakes me lightly.
"Yeah?" I ask acting sleepily.
I didn't go to drama school for nothing.
I look at her and she's crying.
"What's wrong?" I ask sitting up.
"I'm in pain. And bleeding." She says clutching her lower side. Where the womb is.
"Are you sure it isn't your period."
"My period just ended 4 days ago." She nods and winces from pain.
"OK. Come on." I say and take her to her room.
I take out her jeggings and a t-shirt.
"When I pressure it the pain is lighter." She says.
"Do you want me  to help you change?" I ask.
She then shakes her head.
I go to my room and changed my clothes.
I knock on her door.
"One... Second." She says.
She's in pain.
What if she's still changing.
Just wait.
A few seconds later she opens the door.
She looks terrible.
"Come on." I say.
She walks really slowly because of the pain.
I stop and carry her, bridal style.
She rests her head on my shoulder while supporting herself by wrapping her arms around my neck.
I open the car door and place her inside.
I get in and drive as fast as I can.
I park in front of the ER.
I get out and she opens the door.
I look at her pants and blood is showing.
Is she wearing a pad.
"I am wearing one." She says breathing heavily.
"Come on." I say and carry her.
I run into the ER.
A doctor comes.
"Angel? Is that you?" She asks.
I nod.
"I need a gurney." She calls.
They get one and I lay Angel on it.
I follow them.
"What happened?" The doctor asks me.
"Well, she was perfectly fine, then she came into my room crying. She said she was in pain and bleeding. I asked her if it was her period, she told me that her period ended 4 days ago. She also said that applying pressure helps ease the pain." I say.
They enter a room and I enter with them. Angel looks like she's in more pain than before.
I stand next to her and hold her hand.
"I'm here." I say.
She squeezes my hand very hard it hurts, but I can take the pain.
They did a few things and managed to stop the bleeding.
"We stopped the bleeding and gave her pain killers. We've also taken a sample from the blood to find out what's wrong. We have reason to believe that it's because of the cancer. We just need the test results to make sure." She says.
She leaves my hand slowly.
"Bu-" Angel starts.
"I got the test results." An intern comes in and says.
The doctor looks at the results then looks at Angel with a frown.
"I'm so sorry. But, the cancer has developed into Stage 3." She says.
Oh no.
"What?" Angel gasps.
"That's what caused the bleeding." She says.
"But... It has been stable for 7 years now." Angel says.
"Mason, can you give us a moment?" Angel asks when the doctor looks at her in a 'we need to be alone' look.
I nod and get out of the room.
~*~
After some time Angel comes out of the room.
"I can go home." She says.
I offer to help her walk, but she doesn't want. She seems to be thinking.
"Angel?" A young doctor asks when we get to the reception.
Angel looks up and her eyes light up.
"Elena!" She says.
They both hug.
"I've missed you so much. It's been a while." Elena says.
"Yeah. Almost two years." Angel says.
"How's Ellie?"
"She's fine. She finally started to speak."
"Really, oh my god."
"Yeah. Three words just today."
"Awww."
"Elena, is this what I think it is." Angel says holding Elena's hand up. She's talking about an engagement ring.
Elena then nods eagerly.
"Matt proposed." She squeals.
"What. When. How. Where."
"A week ago. Oh. Here, I was going to send it by mail. But, here you are. There are five tickets. You, Ellie, and any three people you want to invite."
"Congratulations. You know, the three of us should get together again. You, me, and Bonnie."
"Yeah, it'll be amazing. How about Saturday, at the grill."
"You know, I haven't been to the grill ever since I skipped senior year."
"I'll pick you up. I'll keep it a secret. Make it a surprise."
"Yeah. It's the same number. Text me before you come."
"Yeah I will. You can bring Ellie too."
"Nah, I'll keep it a grownups day out."
"Yeah. Oh god. I have to go. My patient's crashing." She says fast and runs off.
"Bye."
Angel and I then go the car.
"So, what'd the doctor say?"
"I have until October. At most."
I gulp.
"But there's surgery. There's also Chemotherapy."
She shakes her head.
"You know why I can't do Chemotherapy."
Her mother died from Chemotherapy.
"Surgery?" I ask.
"I have a very bad feeling. Like if I enter I won't come out."
"The same feeling from when you had your apandex removed."
"Yeah, and it was right. My heart stopped. For a full 3 minutes."
I just nod.
"But there is one more solution." She says.
"Which is?"
"Vampire Blood."
"Then why didn't they give you?"
"It has to be compatible with my blood. The type compatible with mine is very rare and they don't have it. But, they'll keep me updated."
I nod again.
"I just can't do this to Ellie. I can't let her live the same childhood I had. No father. Mother dying at the age of two. She'll turn to this July. Then I'm going to college in September and die in October." She sobs.
"You won't di-"
"You don't know that."
"It's true. But there's always hope."
"I'm beginning to hate hope."
"OK. If worse comes to worse. And we say that you do....(gulp) die. I have another kid. Jason. He's 2 years older than Angel. Who is the same age as Ellie. We can take her in and if she doesn't want Jason can sit with her."
"So that she has the same life as me? I don't want her to have this life."
"We'll figure something out."
I say and rub her thigh a bit.
I feel the urge to go higher and rub her right here right now.
I remove my hand and continue driving.
When we get home, thankfully everybody is asleep.
Well everybody is Delilah and Ellie.
"Please don't tell Delilah." Angel says as we go up the stairs.
I just nod.
She goes into her room and I go into mine. Which is the exact opposite door.
I just take off my shirt and pants.
I'll sleep in my boxers tonight. Like the usual.
I feel thirsty so I go down and get some water.
Angel is in a shirt that ends just bellow her ass, and putting her sheets in the washing machine.
I drink my water and catch her glancing at my abs between adding the soap to the liquid one.
I don't like to brag but, I have a pretty amazing body.
I then start going up the stairs.
When I reach the top a small soft hand touches my back.
"Uhm. Mason. Can I sleep in your room tonight? I'm kinda scared." She asks.
"Sure. Come here." I say and hug her.
She hugs me back and burries her head in her chest.
"I can't leave Ellie." She says.
"You won't. We'll find a way." I say and kiss the top of her head.
We enter my room and she opens up the sofa bed.
I thought she was going to sleep with me like old times whenever she's scared.
She spreads the blanket and sleeps.
"Good night Mase." She says.
Mase. No one has called me that for a long time.
"Good night Ange." I say.
I keep tossing and turning but I can't sleep.
"I have until October. At most."
Her words keep repeating in my head.
I turn and give my back to the side where she's sleeping.
A few minutes later I feel the bed move.
I then feel a finger run across my spine.
"Can't sleep either huh?" She asks.
"Yeah." I say.
"I'm sorry."
"For?"
"Kneeing you in the balls."
I then chuckle a bit.
"You shouldn't be sorry. I'm the one who's sorry. I shouldn't have kissed you."
"Don't be. No one can fight their feelings. Plus, it's normal, we've lived together for 16 years. It's amazing how well you hid it for that long."
I then turn to face her.
"Still, I'm sorry. I didn't let you live your life because I was jealous. I shouldn't have done that. And, it's incest. I'm sorry."
"It's not incest. My mom was adopted remember?"
"Why are you trying to make me feel better?"
"Because... Well, I kinda liked the kiss. It's not that I like you. I mean I love you but as a cousin. But I, you know, haven't had this attention for a long time. And I just think that maybe... Just maybe, we can forget about the world just for tonight... You know what, uhm. Just, forget what I said. Good night." She says and gets out if the bed.
I'm still processing what just happened.
I then realize she at the door.
I run to her and stop her as she opens the door.
I close the door and pull her into me.
"I agree." I say and kiss her.
A small kiss.
She breaks and looks into my eyes.
"Just for tonight." She says and kisses me.
"Just for tonight." I say between kisses.
