I glared at my best friend and the guy i was madly in love with. He smiled showing off his sexy dimples. I looked into his blue eyes as he looked into my dark green eyes. I sighed "please for me dont go" i whined looking up at his tall muscular figure. He smiled down at me "Skyler stop whining i'll be back in three days tops" He said kissing my forehead. "Emmett Please!" i begged him. He shook his head "shut up Skye" he said getting annoyed with me. "fine Emmett, go out there!" i yelled getting mad at him now. Emmett Dale McCarty is my best friend and true love. We've known each other from the day our mothers made us play together at the age of 3 because they were best friends. I sighed as i walked away from him and heading for the McCarty house. "Skyler!" Emmett called after me but i didnt listen to him and i walked towards the house.
I passed the barn where i popped my head in to see Emmett's older brother Aaron cleaning the horse stall. "Hi Aaron" i said smiling at the brown haired blue eyed freak i love as a brother. I loved all of Emmett's sibling as if they were my own. I had an older brother and older sister. Both were 25, and 23. I am 20 and my pa has been trying to get me married.
But i keep telling my pa i didnt wanna marry anyone. My ma thought i had gone insane until she clicked it all together and found out that i was in love with Emmett. My dad had started to deny a lot of men because my ma plead with him to let me choose my own husband. Right now i was mad at Emmett because he wanted to go on a camping trip with his friend Richard who i didnt like so much. Richard was an idiot, drunk or not. Yeah Emmett drinks and i do too but shhh pa dosnt know.Pa hates the fact that i am not like my ma, a women who stays home and cooks for her husband. I'd rather be on the fields working.
I made my way to the house and got in being greeted by Patch the old hound dog that belong to Nicholas. Emmett's ma came out smiling at me I smiled at the small women. She had the amazing Blue eyes that Emmett inherited and she had long black hair that was wavy and reached to her waist. She was wearing a long green skirt and her hair was tied into a neat bun. "how are you dear?" she asked me as she went back to her cooking. "im good Alison" i said. She nodded her head and smiled at me. "will you be out on the porch again with Emmett?" she asked as she poked at the fire. I nodded my head and bit my lip.
Emmett and I would usually sit on his porch before it gets dark and he would play guitar while i sang to any song he strung. I smiled thinking about it and i grabbed a freshly picked apple from the wooden table Howard McCarty made with his own hands. Emmett's pa. I cleaned the apple on my white dress that Alison had made for me and bit into it. I walked out onto the porch and Emmett was already sitting out on it holding his guitar in his hand. I smiled as i sat in front of him. He strung a few notes and i started to sing "one day when the sky is falling, ill be standing right next to you, right next to you. nothing will ever come between us, ill be standing right next to you, right next to youuuuu..." i sang smiling at Emmett. He smiled at me with a bright dimple smile that i love.
My heart pounded in my chest and i smiled wider. I went on singing for a while and we enjoyed ourselves like every night. Me and Emmett were spending our last night together, but of course we didnt know that.
I woke up the next morning and i rushed over to the McCarty's farm on my horse Cobalt. I hopped off my horse as Jackson smiled at me and went to Cobalt and led him to the barn. I rushed towards the house where Emmett was sitting on the steps laughing with Richard. I smiled at him and stood in front of him. He stood up and smiled at me. I wrapped my arms around his neck and his arms wrapped around my waist. I hugged him close to me and i didnt wanna let go. I smiled at him as i pulled back "stay safe" i said smiling at him. "stay you" he said laughing. I rolled my eyes and hugged him again. He grabbed his gun and his bag. He kissed my forehead and said "try have fun without me" "ill try not to" i said laughing a little. He smiled brightly at me "well Bye Skyler" "bye Emmett" i said waving my best friend goodbye.
-----Present-----
I ran and ran trying to get away from Carl. I looked at the trees here covered in snow. I pushed my self faster when i heard Carl's sickening voice say "Skyler come back, my love". Carl is a human drinking vampire who thinks im his mate. I thought he was a disgusting man. I had ran into him on one of my hunting trips a year ago and he wont let me be. He wants me to be his mate and wants me to drink human blood. Yes i am a vampire, but i drink animal blood as much as i hate to do it i have to.
I screamed at the top of my lungs as i came towards a big wooden house here in Canada. "HELP ME!" i yelled. The front door opened and out came a blonde male with scars. I ran up to him and he looked at me confused. "help me, your a vampire help me" i plead. He growled and i said "please, i come in peace this crazy vampire is after me". He looked at Carl who had just come from the tree line. He smirked at me "Skyler come over here 'Darling'" "Ew stay away from me!" i yelled backing my way towards the blonde.
The blonde started to crouch into a defensive stance at Carl. Carl stopped and froze looking at the blonde male "hey buddy im just here to get my mate" he said. "Go away" the blonde said in a southern accent. I smiled inwardly hearing it. Carl glared "ill be back for you Skyler" he hissed out at me. I glared at his retreating figure. "thank you..." "Jasper" "Thank you Jasper" i said smiling. "it was nothing" he said smiling "whats your name?" "Skyler, Skyler Thomas" i said smiling. He then said "will you come in?" he asked. i nodded my head and walked inside a house that had suitcases all over the place. I looked at him confused and he said "me and my mate are going to go back home to our family". I nodded my head and said "where is your mate?" He frowned "in Italy trying to save my brother" he said. I nodded my head and didnt pray.
I smiled at Jasper and said "well i better be going off" i said. Jasper shook his head "come with me to Washington. You cant go out there with that guy after you" i shook my head at him "i cant ill be intruding" i said. "NONSENSE!" Jasper said smiling. I smiled back "only for a day or two" i said glaring at him slightly. He smiled "so how old are you?" he asked. "a hundred or something, but frozen at 21" i said.Jasper nodded "im a few hundred years old but frozen at 18" he said. I smiled "from the south?" "texas, you?" "Tennessee" i said proudly. He laughed "you sound like my other brother" he said. I smiled "well i guess we will get along" i said.

"When we were five, they asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up. Our answers were things like astronaut, president, or in my case… princess.
When we were ten, they asked again and we answered - rock star, cowboy, or in my case, gold medalist. But now that we've grown up, they want a serious answer. Well, how 'bout this: who the hell knows?!
This isn't the time to make hard and fast decisions, its time to make mistakes. Take the wrong train and get stuck somewhere chill. Fall in love - a lot. Major in philosophy 'cause there's no way to make a career out of that. Change your mind. Then change it again, because nothing is permanent.
So make as many mistakes as you can. That way, someday, when they ask again what we want to be… we won't have to guess. We'll know."
