Chapter 10

Dan's POV

I just laid there, Phil made me warm. My head was placed on his chest. For a moment I could have sworn I felt a heartbeat... but that isn't possible. We're dead; a walking corpse. All I could think though was how amazing it would be to hear and actual heartbeat. I had never heard one before.

"Phil?" I asked. "What is a heartbeat like?"

He thought for a moment and sat up,

"A heartbeat? A heartbeat. Heartbeats are well, they're beautiful. It's like a clock; the constant ticking until one day it suddenly stops. But as long as you can hear the tick you're okay. That one noise can mean life or death. You know, when babies hear the heartbeat of their mother it relaxes them. I never thought I would miss a heartbeat so much."

"Do you miss being human?" I asked.

"Wow lots of questions today, huh?" He laughed.

"Just answer me."

"Fine. Yes, I do miss being a human. I would have never chose this life; never in a million years but I think this might be my fate." Phil said.

"Fate? You actually believe in that crap?" I scoffed.

"Yes, actually. Think about it, Dan. Everything ties into something else. One decision I make right now can change my life forever. Like the night I was bitten, I would have never gone in the graveyard before but I was drawn to it. Now look where I am. It's Fate, Dan, Fate. There has to be a reason why I was drawn to this place." He concluded.

I was contemplating telling Phil what I did the night of his attack. Will he hate me?

"Did you ever figure out who bite you?" I brought up.

"No, they said it was the full moon and loads of Lonely's were on the prowl; there really was no way to tell." Phil replied.

I took a deep breath and said,

"I know who it was."

"Who?" Phil raised his eyebrows.

"I did." I confessed.

He jumped up and out of the tree.

"W-w-what?"

I jumped down too.

"We seemed like a good idea." I confessed.

"We seemed like a good idea?!" Phil questioned. "I had a life, Dan! I had family, friends, do you know how hard it is to lie like this? You weren't controlled you did this for your own stupid selfish reasons! I can't believe I fell in love with such a monster! Have fun with Lilith, I'm done!" He walked off into the distance.

I didn't stop him and he never turned back around.

I flew back home; hating myself even more. I ruined his life. He was right, I was a monster and I deserved my shitty life with Lilith.

The next day

Dan's POV

I awoke to a delicious smell. I walked to the kitchen to see what was cooking, my dad was serving some pigs blood.

"What's up babe?" Lilith asked.

"Hello, Lilith." I sighed.

She did a school girl giggle, "Please, call me Lily."

"Whatever." I sat down.

Wilma started to talk, "So, Daniel? Are you excited for the wedding tomorrow?"

I spit out my pigs blood; "Tomorrow?!"

My mum gritted her teeth like she was embarrassed. "Yes, Daniel, tomorrow."

I lied, "I'm ecstatic." My mother gave an approving nod.

"Well, it'll just be you and Lily today, all of us are going out into town. You'll have some great couple time!" Mr. Hellmann said.

Lilith gave me a wink. Oh god. What was this girl thinking?

"Great." I lied again. "Just peachy."

"Dan, it's just you and me. You what we should do?" Lilith asked.

"Umm. I'd prefer we just stay away from each other."

"You say that Daniel; but I know what you're really thinking. Men they all think the same."

Lilith proceeded to remover her shirt, "C'mon Danny let's go play." She said seductively.

"I'm going to have to take a raincheck on that."

"Don't be silly." She growled and pushed me against the wall. "I know you want me."

"No, I really don't!" I spat.

Lilith pressed her lips against mine. It wasn't nice like Phil's. Her lips were cold like ice and I felt nothing when I touched her. She let go of me,

"Wow you're really going to have a hard time when we have to make children, aren't you?"

I growled, "I'm never having children with you."

"You say that now, but just you wait."

"Just you wait." Her words echoed through my head.

If fate really was real? Why was this my path? I'm miserable and I just want to die.

I feel like this chapter wasn't as good :/ but thanks for reading! & sorry it's been so long since the last update!
