Cursed Love

It was my favorite time of the year, Christmas, and I was sitting in Starbucks drinking a nice warm cup of hot coco. It was nice seeing all the families and couples running around in the snow from store to store. I am all a lone this Christmas since all my family decided to go somewhere warm , Hawaii, without me Mark for christmas. I didn't go because I prefer being in cold winter weather than hot sweaty weather. I finished the last of my hot coco and started walking toward Jc Fashion, the store where my bestfriend Jenn works at. I walked in and immediately got distracted by all the latest winter clothes. "Hey Mark!" Jenn yells as she runs over to me. "Hi bestie. Whats our plans for Christmas?" I ask her excitedly. "Well I got a surprise for you. Were going to a cabin by Crystal Lake.." "No thanks." I quickly interject.

"I knew you would say that, so I locked up the apartment, changed the locks, and packed our suit cases. There in the trunk of my car, now lets go bestie." Jenn says while grabbing my hand. I really don't want to go because me and nature don't mix too well, but I know once Jenn puts her foot down its either go or get knocked out and still go. "Don't be sad. There going to be cute guys. You know Jack and Ryan, there both coming plus Christy and Mike, so it's gonna be fun." Jenn says to me but I know the real reason. Luke and I just broke up because I found out he slept with Kim my now ex friend. "You know I can still remember that day. He called me and told me to come home late because he was fixing me a surprise dinner, and I being stupid listened. Luckily I came home a little earlier because my cell phone was about to die. What I find? Him fucking that bitch and him about to set my house on fire, letting the food burn." I say to Jenn trying to hold back the tears.

"Well I told you he fucks anything that moves, but you didn't want to listen because he says your special." Jenn says mocking me. I get in her car and don't say a single word. "They are going to meet us up there, so pout now party later." Jenn says before turning up the radio. I hope this Christmas weekend goes by fast because I don't know how friendly I can really be.

We spend two hours driving and we finally make it to Crystal Lake. I get out and is immediately met by Ryan 6'2 muscular frame. He walks up to me and hugs with a playful grab of my butt. "Damn you working it today." He jokingly says."You play too much." I whisper secretly enjoying it. Jenn gets out and heads inside not saying a single word. "So I hear your single now, maybe we can get together." He whispers wrapping me back into his arms. "Um didn't we try that already?" I ask. "Yeah but this time Im ready for you." He says. I duck out of his arms and grab the bags and head into the cabin. "Oh I know why Jenn is mad. It because we bought our new friend Drake aka Dracula boy. He the guy who loves to wear vampire teeth, weird." Ryan whispers. "Well you hang out with him so that makes you weirdos too by association." I say with a smile.

"You never met the guy because he weird. He doesn't go clubbing with us or to parties. We only really see him at his house or maybe at that bar." He says with a smile. "Well maybe he just likes being alone." I answer defensively." Maybe or maybe he straight!" Ryan shouts in a playful tone. "You are so stupid." I say going to sit by Drake.

He doesn't say anything just continues to stare out the window. Jenn who is running around giving everyone orders leaves me alone with. "You smell very nice." He says in deep voice and turns to me showing his toy fangs which look dangerously real. I stare into his dangerous green eyes. "What you mean I don't haven't put on any cologne. Hey aren't your eyes blue. I know I saw them blue in a picture of you and Ryan?" I ask. "Well you see I meant your natural smell, its interesting. My eyes have always been green." He said quickly standing up and walking out side. Ryan was right he is weird.

The weekend goes by faster than ever with Mike and Jack fucking on everything, Jenn and Christy making out on trees, in the car, and on the table. Ryan trying his best to flirt with me which surely didn't happen. Drake I don't really remember seeing him that much at all. The only action I got was getting scratched on a tree while rolling down snow covered hills. The weirdest part of the trip was when everyone had left to go find firewood, and I was left to cook dinner. I thought I saw someone walk by the backdoor in the kitchen, and I went to see who, but nothing. I walked around the house outside and still nothing until I tripped and landed in this big paw print hole. I quickly got up on my feet and ran like hell back into the kitchen praying whatever made that track was long gone.

When I got back in, I saw Drake in the kitchen. "Are you ok?" He asked. "I am fine, but do you know if any large dogs live around here because I just saw this huge paw track." I ask out of breath. Drake smiled and whispered, "Be careful." Then he walked away. That night I dreamed of a huge dog chasing me, and Drake eating the snow where my blood had landed from the scratch.

As soon as I got home, I made sure to have a couple of shots. Even though I am feeling a little drunk, I want to go for a walk. I decide to walk toward the park even though its midnight. As I walk, I feel eyes are watching me. I finally make it too the park and see Drake sitting on a swing, so I sit next to him. "Hi Drake." I drunkly manage to whisper. He looks at me and sighs, and ask "Mark, can I tell you something?" "Sure buddy boo boo." I say with a giggle. "I am a bad boy. I have been cursed by my father to forever stay a virgin." He says. "Cursed how?" I ask. "I am a vampire, a heartless, blood thirstier who no one will ever love." " Why not. Your kind of cute." I whisper.

Drake gets up and stare at me with a hint of anger, "You don't get it. Everything I love is taken from me and hunted down like wild animals. He knows everything, my every thoughts, and my every move. You would of been dead if I didn't chance him away!" He yells. "Why me?" I ask getting more confused and slowly falling asleep. "Because Im falling for you, a human with a pure heart. You didn't know me, yet you didn't judge me for being weird. You stood up for me against Ryan and I know how much you like him. I am sorry that I put you in danger when you don't even feel the same." He whispers turning his back to me. I get up and kissing him on the lips and I feel his tongue slip in my mouth. He moves to my neck and I feel him bit me before I past out.
