Being different Quote by Jade
“That was when I noticed how close this guy was getting. He put his hands on either side of me. Wait when was I up against the wall? (This is what alcohol does to you!) I could feel his breath on my face. Hell I could smell it. Yuck. I could hear my heart beating. No that wasn't my heart. It was his. I could feel his pulse. Hear it running through his veins. I mouth was so dry. He leaned in and I could smell his blood. These were the terrible consequences of my choice. I dropped the bottle and my arms found their way to his shoulder. It wasn't a gesture of lust. But that is what he thought. He kissed my neck in a drunken way. I stared at his neck then before I could stop myself. I bit down. I felt the blood gush into my mouth. It was.. Exhilarating. I think the guy was in shock. Jade what the... I heard someone yell. Then the guy was yanked from my death grip. He fell to the floor passed out. Stark crouched next to him checking for a pulse. I was freaked out. Did I kill him?”
