Should Have Walked Away | Aarmau Vampire AU

I looked over and my eyes widened.

The children were hiding behind their parents, or just behind the adults. The said adults were backing away as much as they could from the monster I was.

The guards were shocked, and defensive.

Everyone looked terrified.

What did I do?

My hand went to my mouth, covering the fangs they now knew hid there and the thick blood dripping off my chin. My eyes began to water.

Without a second thought, I sprinted away out the hole in the wall, making it to a large pond in a minute or two.

This wasn't the pond I knew, it was larger and the moon's reflection haunted me from the surface.

They know. They hate me. They want me dead. They're scared of me.

I don't cry. Not often. But right now, tears fell heavy down my cheeks and my hand still covered my mouth.

Sobs wracked my body, making my shoulders shake as I desperately tried to wipe off the distasteful blood from my face.

It was putrid, clearly not normal blood. It was at least 3 different species, and the taste was as if it was from a corpse.

I finally wiped it all off, but I still sobbed as the tears continued - though growing smaller.

Without knowing anything else to do, I simply started to sing after I caught my breath.

"There's a boy, lost his way looking for someone to play. . .

There's a girl in the window
Tears rolling down her face,

We're only lost children
Trying to find a friend
Trying to find our way back home,

We don't know where to go
So I'll just get lost with you
We'll never fall apart,

'Cause we fit together right
We fit together right
These dark clouds over me
Rain down and roll away,

We'll never fall apart
'Cause we fit together like
Two pieces of a broken heart,

I know where we could go
And never feel let down again
We could build sandcastles
I'll be the queen, you'll be my king,

We're only lost children
Trying to find a friend
Trying to find our way back home
We don't know where to go
So I'll just get lost with you,

We'll never fall apart
'Cause we fit together right
We fit together right
These dark clouds over me
Rain down and roll away,

We'll never fall apart
'Cause we fit together like
Two pieces of a broken heart,

Now I can lay my head down and fall asleep
Oh, but I don't have to fall asleep
To see my dreams
'Cause right there in front of me
(Right there in front of me),

There's a boy
Lost his way
Looking for someone to play,

We don't know where to go
So I'll just get lost with you,

We'll never fall apart,
'Cause we fit together right
We fit together right
These dark clouds over me
Rain down and roll away,

We'll never fall apart,
'Cause we fit together like
We fit together like
Two pieces of a broken heart,

There's a boy, lost his way, looking for someone to play."
