• Chapter 1:Girl Meets Boy

    The thunder was crashing in the distance. The lightning would soon be dancing across the sky, and the rain would come pouring down. It was late, warm night and I was on the ground staring up at the stars that would soon disappear under the heavy black clouds. I decided it was time to head back home before it started to rain. I got up and stretched. A twig snapped nearby and I froze in place. I looked around for any signs of anyone when the smell hit me. It was a werewolf, male, and he was alone. That was a good thing I could eliminate him easily. I listened and nothing seemed to make a sound or move. Maybe he didn’t notice me and left. I started to walk back home. I didn’t make it far before I got tackled to the ground.
    I struggled for a few seconds before I threw him off. He slid across the dirt cleanly. He was a truly beautiful dog. His fur was jet black with blonde streaks threw it. His eyes were sky blue and they were huge like puppy dog eyes, but I couldn’t let that distract me. I sprang up and shifted into my vampire state. If he wanted a fight then he would get one. I got in my stance and was ready to go. He ran at me, jumped, shifted, and landed back on the ground. “
    Well, well what do I have here” he said.
 “Back off mutt, this is my turf” I growled. 
 “Calm down I’m not here to hurt you, or your turf leech” said the boy. 
 “Why not isn’t that what you dogs do, kill us leeches” I growled. Suddenly he was close walking around me, smelling me. I tensed myself for an attack. 
 “Hey relax, I couldn’t kill such a pretty face” he said and suddenly he was in front of me again. The lightning then came in streaking across the sky. The rain would start any minute now. I got lost in his eyes, and I think he got lost in mine. He started to relax, and then I started to relax. Then the rain came pouring down, and we were soaked within seconds. The next thing I knew I was on top of him on the ground kissing him. He was kissing me back, and stroking my wet hair. I never thought it possible, but I have fallen for a dog. I pulled away slightly, and he titled his head sideways to the left. Such a puppy like thing to do. I thought it was adorable. 
 “What’s wrong?” he asked. 
 “This is wrong, this shouldn’t be happening” I said turning away. He pulled me to him, and looked into my eyes for a long time. 
 “Let it happen it was meant to be, can you tell me your name?” he asked.
 “Lexi Anderson, what’s yours?”
 “Andrew Whiteraven.” I smiled slightly to myself fantasizing about the future of us. Lexi Whiteraven sounded amazing, better then Anderson. I didn’t like my last name. It just didn’t seem to fit. I then came back to reality. 
 “This isn’t going to work” I whispered.
 “Then why are you still holding me close?” asked Andrew tilting his head to the left again. I just couldn’t escape those beautiful eyes. I pulled away from him turning to leave. He grabbed my wrist and I turned back towards him. 
 “Let me go” I said as I tugged slightly at my hand. 
 “I can’t” he said. I saw the sadness in his eyes, and it hurt. I got my hand free and started to walk away. I could feel his sad eyes on my back, and I couldn’t take it anymore. I turned back towards him, and ran to him. He opened up his arms and I jumped into his arms. I kissed him fiercely on the neck moving up towards his lips. 
 “I love you” I whispered in his ear as I kissed him. He was stroking my hair ever so gently letting me do my thing. When I was finished he looked into my eyes and was giving me a little smirk.
 “It’s not going to work huh” said Andrew. 
 “Oh shut up” I said kissing him again. 
“Look we are going to have to sneak around, will you meet me in this field every night at midnight?” asked Andrew.
    “Yeah, but just to let you know Anderson isn’t really my last name it’s my safety name” I said smiling a little shyly.
    “What’s your actual name?” asked Andrew.
    “Lexi Summers” I said. His eyes got huge.
    “Whoa, you’re like family is like rich, really really rich.”
    “Yeah.”
    “Well I should probably get going.”
    “Me too, I’ll see you tomorrow night.”
    “Ok babe, I love you.”
    “I love you too.” He then disappeared into the night and I walked home. Everyone was asleep when I arrived. I got a quick shower and started a load of laundry to get the smell off of me. I didn’t want anyone questioning me. I was going to have to be real careful from now on. I hope that this works out and once I’m eighteen if we were still together we would move somewhere were it was ok for us to be together. This just the beginning and I knew it was going to only get worse. Oh well I loved him and I was going to try to make it work. I couldn’t wait to see him again, and I went to sleep thinking about him.
