Getting to Know

A couple of days later...

”Ughh, brain please work.”

Laura rested her head on top of the book that she was reading. She’s already spent an hour digesting everything that she read earlier.

“You okay?”

She heard someone from her side ask. She turned to see who it was and found out it was Timothy. She ignored him and switched her focus back to studying.

On the other hand, Timothy already knew that she’s having a hard time reviewing the lesson. He took out his study notebook and switched it to Laura, surprising her with his actions.

“What are you doing?”

Laura asked, confused of what Timothy did.

“I know you’re having a hard time, so there I’ll let you have my study notebook.”

Timothy said before leaving.

“Wait! I can’t..”

She wasn’t able to finish her sentence because Timothy ran away from her. She sighed and looked at the study notebook that he switched from hers. After opening it, she was surprised that it was far more informative than hers. It had notes beside major lesson and had key points marked. It made her smile after seeing all of this, she trusted him and started studying the lesson with Timothy’s study book.

Hours into studying with her new lent study notebook, Laura enjoyed using it. She was able to understand the lessons that they she has to review for their assessment later. She looked at her watch to check for the remaining time she has until the break is over.

“Still an hour left before class. Better go back to studying.”

Meanwhile, Timothy woke up after sleeping for an hour on a park bench. Took off Laura’s study notebook on top of his face, which he used as cover.

“Is it time already?”

He checked the time on his watch and forced his body to stand up and move. He put Laura’s notebook inside side his bag and left the park. He walked across the hallway towards the direction of the library where Laura is currently studying.

“I wonder if she’s still having a hard time.”

Timothy thought before entering the library and headed straight to where where he last saw Laura. While walking along rows of bookshelves, he stopped after he heard noises from a far. Curiosity urged him to track the source of the noises he heard. It led him to a secluded part of the library, because of the size of the library the maintenance staff has a hard time cleaning the farthest bookshelves.

Timothy slowly peeked on the area where he assumed the noise originated. He was surprised to see a guy on top of a woman, like they were doing something risky inside the library. The guy stopped “kissing” the woman’s neck and looked up, there he witnessed something he never had seen before.

The red eyed guy with veins popping out on his temples has blood around his mouth and has its two fangs as long as of a wolf, was not “kissing” the woman. Instead it was sucking the woman’s blood dry from her carotid artery.

”What are you?”

The guy which Timothy asked stood up and smirked.

“Me? A Vampire”
