I definitely shouldn't have told him. I didn't wake up till....2:47 am. That's what my alarm clock is telling me.

I feel drained and my whole entire body hurts. As I sat up I winced and looked down at my body. I can't see anything that should hurt this bad, as soon as I tried to stand up it was a different story.

My entire body collapsed underneath me and I cried out in pain. Where the fuck was Ryder? Tears slowly escaped my eyes as my bedroom door swung open.

Nicole's face met mine.
"Sis...it's ok. I'm here." She whispered as she hugged me tight. The only thing that covered me was the big blanket.

"Nic-nic-nicole he l-l-left m-m-me." I choke south between tears.

"No baby. He's downstairs. He's with his brother. His brother felt the bite. Fuck he did a good one on you." Nicole whispered staring at my neck.

I nodded still crying.

Mumbling could be heard from the hallway and then the door opened again.

"Love..." A deep voice came in through my room.

I looked up through tears and saw Ryder.

"Baby..." He whispered getting closer.

"No no no no..." I kept saying pulling away from him. He shot his hands out to me to grab me but I flinched.

His face said it all. He knew what he had done. What he did made matters so much worse.

"Bambi. Ryder needs to speak with you." Scott stated softly coming form the door.

"I don't want to talk." I said with a broken voice. I stared at Ryder and his face fell.

"It's fine. I will stay. Nicole, go back to Jack. He won't be ok until you are with him again." Scott ordered.

I brought myself up on the bed and Ryder growled. I jumped and stared at him. His eyes were dark and he stared at my body.

"Fuck Ryder. Is that the best thing to do right now?" Scott yelled and grabbed Ryder to face him.

"Fuck....babe...get some clothes on." Scott said staring at me his eyes roaming my body. Ryder growled again and swung at Scott.

"Ryder! Fuck! Stop!" I yelled.

He slowly turned to look at me.

"Follow me." I demanded as I grabbed a tshirt of his that had been thrown to the side.

He followed me in to the bathroom and stood over me.

"Ryder. Stop being a douche." I said staring him in the eye. His facial features softened and he only nodded in response.

"I can't fucking believe you. We finally have sex after all these fucking years and you throw a damn hissy fit. You threw a hissy fit over my virginity. MINE." I started talking while poking him in the chest.

His head hung down low and his face etched with sadness.

"Bambi...I'm so-" he started before I interrupted.

"You don't even get to say I'm sorry. You do not deserve my forgiveness. You deserve a punch in the dick." I said throwing a large t-shirt on. A pair of short shorts were thrown on too.

I walked out of the room throwing my hair in a bun. He slowly followed behind me.

"Bambi. We have a lot to discuss babe." Scott started.

A low rumble came from Ryder.

"Didn't I tell you to stop?!" I yelled out, "Don't fucking start with me Ryder. Don't get all possessive now. You and I are drowning. You broke through that fucking thin ice and sunk us to the bottom of the Marianna Trench you fuck stick."

Scott snickered.

Ryder opened his mouth to say something but shut it just as quickly.

"Is this going to be a long talk? I'm starving and I can't deal with the testosterone in the room. I'm ordering pizza and wings." I stated, grabbing my phone and ordering quickly through a delivery app.

I kept everyone quiet until the food showed up about 35 minutes later. Thank God for 24 hour restaurants in college towns.

As we sat down to talk Ryder still stared at me. I could feel his gaze and knew he felt bad but I couldn't get past the fact of what he did.

"Ok start." I said grabbing a beer and popping it open as I sat down on the love seat.

Ryder looked up and sighed.

"9th grade is when I realized who you were to me. That you were my beloved, my soul mate. My parents sent Scott and I away to our family in the Czech Republic to learn ways of controlling ourselves. When I came back I wasn't allowed to treat you like I did before. Because of what we are, my family was afraid of you finding out and telling others." Ryder started.

"If you would have told me Ryder, I would have listened, come to terms, and never told anyone just like now." I interrupted.

Ryder slightly smiled.

"It wasn't up to him Bambi. It was a vote. Ry and I wanted to tell you." Scott said grabbing another piece of pizza.

I nodded hoping for them to go farther.

"This is also why I started treating you the way I did. The teasing, bullying, shoving, name calling, everything. Every time I do something to hurt you whether intentional or not I can feel it. I can feel your pain radiating through my body." He went on.

I nodded eating more chicken wings.

"When it got called to vote again, we were graduating. I found out I could tell you the day I saw you at the diner. I wanted to grab you, kiss you, and tell you everything. But you were so angry and hurt. Completely understandable though. I was the worst kind of person possible." Ryder explained.

"Why bite me? What about Dane do you hate so much?" I questioned.

"Bambi. Dane and his family are old vampires. Older then any other family except for the Council who are the last of the original vampires. They voted against telling you. Dane knew who you were to me." Ryder softly said.

"Oh my god.....have I been dealing with vampire shit the whole time and now to only find out the guy who took my v-card is your enemy?" I asked in one breath.

Scott nodded solemnly.

I put my face in my hands and hung my head low.

"I'm so over this. Ok. This is how it's going to be. Ryder. You keep me in the loop about everything. I will talk to Dane." I started and Ryder interrupted.

"Hell fucking no." He growled out.

"Bambi. Not a good idea. Once you are bitten, my baby brother over here is now even more protective of you then normal." Scott laughed out.

"Was that the whole following thing these past few years? Showing up in my bedroom and whispering shit to me while I'm sleeping?" I asked raising an eyebrow.

"Yes." Ryder stated.

I nodded and groaned.

This shit would happen to me. After living a relatively boring life I had to get thrown in to this shit. A vampire confusion fest where I'm the snack of one of the vampires.

"Ok. So who is the shadow man?" I asked.

Both boys shrugged as they looked at each other.

"It's a vampire for sure but we don't know who. We have a meeting with the council on Christmas break. I'm bring it up then. Which you will need to come with me. I have to present our relationship to the council now that I have bitten you." Ryder said looking up at me.

I nodded. This would all be such a shit show. But I can't do a damn thing about it now. I can only enjoy what be I have with Ryder. Spend some time with Nicole. Have sex with Ryder. Fuc,  having sex with him is hot. I would love to ride his.....

"Ok. That's my cue to leave. Bye Bambi. See you next weekend." Scott said and quickly walked out the front door.

"Uh....what was that?" I asked with a chuckle.

"You were thinking about something that turned you on and we could smell it." Ryders gravely voice pushed through the small living room.

"What were you thinking about?" He asked, amused by me.

"Riding your dick." I answered blandly.

Ryder chuckled and reached out to me. He grabbed me up in his arms and ran his hands up and down my sides.

"You....my little minx, are going to be in so much trouble." He whispered against me neck.

"Stop talking....more fucking." I whispered in his ear. He growled loudly and wrapped myself around him and headed towards the bedroom.

Yeah definitely still better then ice cream.
