A Vampire's Touch

Chapter 20 ~•Turned•~

"Ethan?" I whisper but somehow he heard me. He smiles so big and I smile back. Tears start to form in my eyes and they crash down.

Ethan's hands start to shake, and so does the sword in his hand. The sword is drenched in Cameron's blood. The guard lets go of my hands and runs like lightning to Ethan. I forgot that all the guards are vampires too.

Ethan still has his eyes on me, even though the guard is coming to him. "Ethan! Watch out!" I yell.

He quickly moves his gaze towards the guard. He tightens his grip on the sword and runs after the guard. They start to fight, but everything's a blur.

All of a sudden all the vampires start to fight. Why the hell are they fighting each other?

I turn my gaze to Ethan and I see him slice the guards head off. Blood starts to pour out his neck, then his head flops to the ground, taking his body with him.

The whole place is a mess. Everyone's shouting and screaming. There are fights going on everywhere, and no one seems to know what they are doing. Some places of the ball are on fire. How the hell did that happen?

Ethan runs towards me and I run towards him. A vampire jumps in front of Ethan and I skid to a stop. Ethan starts to fight with him. I look around for something to help Ethan with.

I find an extinguisher case on the side wall. I run over towards the case and I punch it. The glass shatters and my knuckle starts to bleed. There are some shard pieces in my knuckle. I ignore the excruciating pain and grab the extinguisher. I run over to where Ethan and the vampire are fighting.

Ethan sees me holding the extinguisher, so he grabs the vampire and throws him on the floor. He pins him down and Ethan nods at me. I lift the extinguisher and throw it down on the vampires head. I hear a huge cracking sound, then gushing blood.

I let go of the extinguisher and Ethan gets off the vampire. Ethan grabs me and pulls me to the backstage. Once we are there I jump onto Ethan. I wrap my arms tightly around his neck, and Ethan snakes his arms around my waist.

"I thought you were dead!" I say.

"Same here, but my dad didn't actually kill me," Ethan replies.

We let go of the hug, but I still have my arms around his neck, and Ethan has his arms around my waist. We look into each others eyes, his icy blue eyes are bluer than ever.

Ethan looks down at my rosy lips, and I smile. He starts to lean in and so do I, but then I stop myself. I push Ethan back lightly. Ethan looks at me, hurt all over his face.

Oh god this is so hard, it's hard enough not to kiss him!

"I don't want to start something that's just gonna end," I say.

"Grace, it won't end. We will be togethe-"

I cut him off. "Do you hear yourself Ethan? This isn't some fairy tail. Either one of us is gonna die or get hurt. I don't want a broken heart again."

Ethan stares at me, giving me a blank look. I can tell he's really hurt.

I hear footsteps coming close. "Ouch! Ethan just got rejected by the one and only Grace Shield!" Says the guy walking in. He walks out the shadow, he has jet black hair thats straight and long like a goth. He has bright light brown eyes that's scanning me up and down.

"You are one hell of a girl," says the guy looking at me.

"Back off Damon!" Ethan says moving a bit in front of me.

Damon roars in laughter. "Didn't you hear her Ethan? She doesn't want you!"

Ethan does a animal growl that came from his throat. Damon does a evil smirk and lifts his finger. "Let's fight," says Damon.
