Chapter 8: Thirsty For Blood

"What Wait what? What do you mean she is gone?" How can you let her leave in that state?

"I didn't let her leave. I want to get some medications before I came back she was not here anymore."

"How could this be? She can't even walk in her state. Do you think somebody came to take her away?"

"That I don't know actually. How about you call her first."

"Okay doc."

"Once you heard from her please give me a call."

"Sure doc."

When, I got home, I quickly went for blood in my fridge. Luckily, I was having one remaining. Without hesitating, I drank it at once I could feel my body again. I took a long breath and fell to the couch.

The door bell keeps ringing.

"One minute please." I shouted from my room. I run to get the door, I look through the door and it was Skylar.

I gasp in shock. "What's he doing here? He can't know that I'm doing fine already. Thank goodness I already banged some part of my body. I pretend sick and weak and I open the door.

"Keisha, how are you doing?"

"I'm good. What are you doing here?"

"To check on you, I was worried sick when I heard you left the clinic before treatment. I wanted to call you but I realize I don't have your number. Why did you leave the clinic?"

I ignore him and sit on the sofa.

"Are you good?"

"I'm good Skylar, you can leave now."

"You don't look it. You look extremely weak to me right now"

"I said I'm good, please leave now."

"Fine but can I get your number so I can reach on you later."

I give him my number and he left. "Jeez, that was so close." Just a few minute later, I heard a knock on my door. "What does he want again?" I open the door.

"What is it…?"

"Hi." Liam said standing at the door with a flower on his hand.

"Liam." I was surprise, I wasn't expecting him at all, and beside how did he know my address. I stood there looking at him not knowing what to say.

"Can I come in?"

"Sure, come in."

"You thought it was him?"

"Pardon, how did you know?"

"I saw him leaving. What is up with you two?"

"What do you know?"

"I….."

"Why are you here Liam? I interrupt."

"I know about your incident with the girls. I heard you left the clinic without being treated. So I decided to come see how you are doing."

"Well, I left because..."

"Don't bother. I guess you left for personal reasons. I brought you flower."

"I don't like flower."

"What? That's odd."

"What's odd?"

"It's actually the first time am seeing a girl that doesn't like flowers. It is very strange to me."

"I collected the flower from him feeling mortified. So how did you find my house?" I asked trying to change the acrid atmosphere.

"That is simple. I have your number remember and I have my phone." He said and find comfort on the couch. "So how are you feeling?"

"I'm fine now."

"Don't lie to me Keisha, you can't be fine. You know, I have been here before."

"What do you mean?"

He looks at me and gives a wry smile. "When I first got into this school, I saw Eve for the very first time and like her. I guess that was a mistaken love at first sight. I crush on her for a month and one day I decided to tell her how I feel about her. I summon courage and told her one day. She didn't say much, she told me she will give me a reply later and at lunch time, she called me. She asked me to follow her and that was the stupidest mistake I made. She took me to a place and I was humiliated by her and her friends. Yours is even better, mine was recorded and posted social."

"I'm so sorry Liam"

"You don't have to be Keisha, it already in the past."

"You care for anything?"

"No. I have to leave now. I have a blind date with someone."

"Really, Go and get her."

"Sure I will."

He stands up and left.

At 9pm, Eleanor was with her friends and they were enjoying the rest of the early night in the bar drinking and chatting happily except Alice who seem to be lost in curious thought.

"It was really fun with Keisha today." Eleanor said.

"Yeah, we really dealt with her. Eve said."

"And this is just the beginning as long as she keeps stocking Alice man, she will know no peace." Eleanor said.

"Can you girl just keep it down. I'm trying to concentrate here okay. Alice shouted

"Alice, are you good?"

"Yeah, I'm just thinking…"

"Wait; don't tell me you are still thinking about what happen earlier? Eve asked and Alice sighs.

"C'mon girl, that was nothing so stop over thinking it. It's not like it our first time doing that to someone."

"To hell with Keisha, I'm only worry about my man.

"Really, c'mon you should stop that already. Like Eleanor said before, Keisha is not worth to be Skylar idea type of woman."

"Are you guys sure about this?"

"1,001 percent sure, girlfriend. Pick up a drink and relieve your negative stress baby girl."

Alice sighs again. She picks up a drink and sip in.

"Excuse me lady." Someone said. Eve look and behold a Handsome, tall, richly dress hot looking guy was standing before their table gaze was focus on Alice. His shining black hair was resting on his shoulder and he smelled nice.

Eve seems to be absorbed to him already.

"Hi handsome" she straight her hand forward for a handshake. "I'm Eve and these are my friend Alice and Eleanor."

"Nice meeting you girls, I'm David." He said looking at Alice. "Alice, can you please excuse me for a minute."

Eve seen disappointed as the guy came because of Alice but Alice don't seem to be interested in him.

"Alice…." Eleanor muttered.
