Love does not beg in and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war, love is growing up.

James Baldwin.

The cloud was dark filled with millions of stars twinkling as if they are speaking about an untitled love story which is growing slowly yet steady in blooming flowers which everyone love to admire.

Nandini was peacefully sleeping under the covers away from all those pain and sufferings, moon filling the room with dim light making her skin glowing every second.

Manik who was sitting beside on the same bed as Nandini silently watched her sleeping face as if he wanted to paint it inside heart forever. His hands gently stroking her smooth hair making sure not to wake her up.

Only time he feel peace was when he hear her light snoring digging into deep sleep a sincere smile form to his lips signaling he was completely satisfied.

"You are so pure and innocent Nandini..I promise I will protect you always".... He whispered looking at her. As he paused for a moment inhaling sharply.

"But how I am gonna protect you from my own devil self"....

His fingers never forget to stroke her hair he glanced at her once again placing his other hand over her creamy cheek gently caressing by his thump.

"Its hard to see your love again and it more painful when the time lapse is over hundred years".... He mutters again this time looking at the ceiling above.

He stayed there till dawn when the darkness slwoly was taken over by lighting of sun. He didn't wanted to be seen by Nandini so he escaped before she wake up. But only after leaving a peck on her forehead.

"

Where did you went, yesterday?".... Nandini asked inhaling in the clear sky.

"Got some stuffs to do".... Aayat spoke without looking at her.

"Can't tell?".... Navya asked.

Aayat nodded in yes as silence formed between them making them think deeply about their life..about the path they are walking On..hoping to go till the end with each others support.

"You are mysterious.. You know that right?".... Navya said breaking the silence.

Aayat watch her with wonder trying to address what her friend meant but shrugging she replied.."well now I know".

They watched sun set in silence..they all had somebody in their mind but they were just too messed up to think about that feeling.. They wanted to ignore but they can't. They admire the beauty when sky turned into the shade of vermelho making them smile widely.

Manik lay on his comfy bed staring at ceiling. He didn't went to college today as he choose to be locked up for few days.

It was the time of the year when his past lover died. The time when when he became a vampire and the time when he met with his new self.

"Die".... He yelled pushing the sword more further.

"Die..die..die".... He kept crying as the sword fell from his hands hitting the ground.

He watched the love of her life taking her last breath looking into his eyes.

He dropped on the floor holding onto her watching her dieing. The wetness on his cheeks got more as he kept shedding tears.

"I know its not my child"... He whispered before she lost the battle of life.

.

"Go away".... Manik yelled sitting up on his bed.

He was terrified by such reminders he got since past days. No matter how hard he try to jerk off but he cannot as if someone was controlling his mind.

He walked up to his window looking at the stars not knowing since how long he had witnessed them shining guiding the passengers. He looked upon recalling all the incidents he had survived beneath them.

He felt his throat drying as if he didn't got to drink since decade.

He wake up with such weird feeling as he wanted something to dry off his burning throat. He looked around realizing he was locked up behind bars but it wasn't a police station.

He ran up holding the bars firmly by his shaky legs. He shouted..he yelled but no one was around no one bothered to answer.

But then suddenly something caught his eyes..a bowl placed near the wall. He hurriedly walked back true his legs were wobbling but he managed to get there safely.

He saw a red liquid...he didn't wanted to know what was it...he didn't cared as he gulp it down in one go.

.

"Stars...you witnessed my first thirst".... Manik whispered looking at them.

You were there then there was no one around..you were my buddy..you were my friend and you are still my best friend.

Manik don't even remember for how long he was trapped in that prison..how many seasons passed by he didn't got chance to inhale in open space. All little hope or lightness was that little shaft at the very top in the right corner.. he knew about the period of day whether it was day or night. But he use to get what he longed for blood.

.

Nandini didn't like this emptiness in her house..by now he was habituated with Manik's presence in her house although it wasn't pleasant but at least he was around bothering her with his silly remarks or even marking her.

She wanted to hug him..run to him...say him about her feelings although he rejects but at least she wanted to let go that burden off her shoulder.

"Manik..I miss you".....

"I miss you more"....
