Sleep isn't sleep anymore, it's just an escape

***

(Xavier's PoV)

Uhh my head was killing me. I knew it was an hangover from last night.

I slowly opened my eyes and my surroundings focused into view.

I looked beside me and there she was Riley, laying peacefully beside me deep in her slumber.

I admired her courage, I really did. The way she stood up for her freedom the first day we arrived here.

Suddenly my memories came crashing Bach to me and I recalled all the rubbish that I had blurted out last night.

Calling Riley cute and all. I couldn't show that kind of an affection towards her but over the days she's grown on me.

But most importantly I remembered telling her my past. I never told anybody how I felt about anything.

The fact that I was able to express myself made me angry because it made me feel vulnerable. But at the same time it also made me feel like there was somebody in this world who would maybe understand me.

Riley stirred slightly and then opened her eyes.

"Good morning" she said

I simply nodded at her and got up to freshen up.

I could feel the growing hunger in me. We usually felt more hungry after intake of alcohol.

I could sense her heartbeat and she smelt delicious. I hope she doesn't bring up yesterday. I don't want to get angry and lose control.

I didn't know what to say to Xavier. I don't know if I even should bring it up.

Xavier came out of the bathroom and I had changed into my morning clothes.

I could sense that he was avoiding me. But I had to tell him that I wouldn't judge him and that he could talk to me.

After breakfast he sat down on his desk, working as usual.

I have always wanted to know, what kind of job he had. Or why he had to work at all.

"Xavier?" I questioned

He stayed silent so I continued.

"I'm sorry about your sister. But you could always talk to me about anything.." I didn't even get to complete my sentence, Xavier had gotten up from his seat and pushed me against a wall.

His eyes had turned from a chocolate brown to a deep crimson red.

He bared his fangs at me that had seemed to appeared because he was hungry.

I was terrified for my life. I had no idea what to do.

I tried struggling but his grip on me only increased.

"Xavier please.." I tried begging.

"Oh Riley you smell so good" he said looking right at my neck.

And without warning his fangs sinked into my skin, devouring my blood.

He drank hungrily, while excruciating pain was all I could feel.

There was nothing I could do. He was too strong.

My mind started to go dizzy, my eyesight became blurry.

And just like that his fangs were out of my skin and he looked at me.

He had seemed to realise what he had done.

I just stared back at him, unable to think straight due to the pain.

"Oh no" was all he said before he licked my wound so as to heal it and stormed out of the room.

I fell to the floor. My legs couldn't take it anymore, and I fell into a sleep like death.
