• She stood on top of the hill, her hair was blowing in the wind."The wind." She inhaled the smell of the green grass below her. "Zan?" Jacob called her name, wanting to reach out to her and touch her perfect round face." Yes, Jake?" She opened her eyes.." Shouldn't we be going? Won't you're boyfriend be mad?" Jacob was afraid of Zan's boyfriend, Harris. " I don't have a boyfriend anymore." She breathed."Why?" Jacob was always curious."Because I didn't love him anymore." Zan danced over to him gracefully. " Then who do you love?" Joacob asked. Zan finally exhaled. "I can't love anyone anymore." She told him."What! Of course you can! Zan, that's what people do! They love each other!" Jacob exploded. "I can't!" She yelled back."But Zan, you are a loving person!" Jacob protested." No, I'm a monster." She growled. "No, you're my best friend." Jacob argued."I know what I am!" She answered angrily." And what exactly is that?" Jacob challenged."
    It doesn't matter." She growled."Yes, it does!" Jacob disagreed. "Fine then,I'll tell you. But you'll be scared of me." She sighed."No I won't." Jacob touched her face. "Okay, you see how these two teeth are pointy?" She asked."Yes, what does that have to do with what you a-" Jacob backed away from her."No! No! Zan, no!" Jacob screamed."Sorry, Jake." Zan backed away from him and sprinted down the hill, and out of sight. "Damn!" Jacob exploded."What?" Zan was right behind him again." I'm sorry. Can we still be friends?" He begged. They had been best friends since they were 4. "I don't think that would be a good idea, but what the hell. If you get turned into a vampire like me though, that's your fault."She warned."Oh, thank you so much, Zan!" Jacob laughed, picking her up and swinging her in a circle."Your turn."Zan picked him up with one arm."Zan!" Jacob yelled."What?" She laughed."You'll break your arm!" He panicked."No, I won't. Vampire, remember?" Zan laughed."Well before your parents freak out, I better get you home." Jake climbed down from her arm."Okay." She sighed. He drove her home in his Porsche. "Zan,I know that it is dangerous, but I want you to be my girlfriend."He said."Okay, Jacob."She bit her lip."Here we are."Jacob said."Good night, Jake." Zan kissed his cheek."Sleep well." Jake called to her." I wish I could!" She laughed and went inside her house.Without knowing what she meant, Jacob turned around and drove home. "Jacob, honey? Are you home?" His mother called.She was always annoying him, even thought she didn't annoy anybody else. She was always bugging him, asking what he was doing. She was not a conventional mother, she cared too much."Yes, mom." He moaned. "Come eat!"She pushed him him to the table, and sat him down. "What is it?" It sounded rude, but he was trying to go upstairs. He wanted to think things through. "Pasta." His mom said. He always hated her pasta. She liked to experiment, and it always turned out either bland, or brackish. She mused his hair, and he had to fix it. It was salty, and he had to choke it down. "Mom, I'm going upstairs."He said quickly, before she tried to make him eat something else. " I love you." He could she the hurt in her eyes. "I love you too, Mom." He sprinted up the stairs." Hi!" Zan was in his room. "How did-"
    "The window." She pointed to his bedroom window." Cool." He took a step closer to her.She layed on her back on his bed, and bit her lip. "So what do you wanna do?" He asked nervously."You can choose." She winked. "Wow, um..."He squinted his eyes, and jabbed his thumb towards his stereo."Music?" She asked. "Sure, you like Panic at the disco, right?" He grabbed the little remote." Yeah, I love them."She told him. All of a sudden she turned pale. "Zan?" Jacob's eyes widdened. Her legs turned flaccid, and she fell on the floor."Zan!" He yelled. She looked like she was asleep, but she also looked dead. He couldn't tell his mom, or else she would freak out that a girl was in his room.(How boobish)"Zan, you can't die." He yelled. Jacob remembered how Zan always pretended to be a vampire, and that she wasn't one. She could die. He looked out his window, to see his mom's car gone.So he called the police.Zan fit on the stretcher, because she was so small."Zan, listen to me," Jacob insisted."You are not a vampire, you are a human, and humans die. You can't take yourself away from me forever."He warned her.She was just his girlfriend and she couldn't die. "She's in a coma."The doctor told him."Why?" Jacob asked stupidly."I don't know, kid.Sorry."The doctor went over and examined Zan."She's dead!"He yelled in horror."You must save her! Bring her back!" Jacob demanded."I can't.It's too late."The doctor made a fist, put it over his mouth, and shook his head."Zan."Jacob started to cry, which he never did."I love you."He didn't go home that night, and he turned off his phone to avoid his mother's phone calls.Jacob just slept in his car, in an alley. It wasn't safe, but if he died, he would be with Zan forever....."Jacob, what are you doing?" She asked in his dreams."Zan, come back."He begged."I can, but I don't want to.Ha!"She disappeared."I was joking with you, Jacob.I can't come back, sorry."She said, and turned her back.She walked into the shadowy forest. "Jacob!"Zan was hitting his chest, as he slept in his car."Zan?"His eyes widened."You're supposed to be-"
    "Dead.It was a prank the doctor played on you.I told them not to.They obviously didn't listen."She shook her head.He had her in a tight bear-hug."Zan! I cried! I thought you were dead!"He stroked her cheek."Sorry."She patted his hair."I'm happy you're alive, though."He added.She just laughed."We'll both live forever together."She said.He smiled at the thought.
