"Are you going to kill me now?" Zach asked softly. I kept silent for a moment. I did tell him I would if even one person knew about him living with me. But he did it to protect me. He saved my live.

"No I won't. Not now atleast. You saved my live. I owe you." He sat down next to me on the bed.

"You don't owe me anything. You already gave me a place to stay. You didn't kill me when you had the chance. It was the least I could do to repay you." He smiled at me after he said that. I smiled back taking his cold hand in mine. That was the closest we've gotten to friendly contact.

"Thank you."

Chapter 6:

"This is going to be a long afternoon. I'm already bored." I say. Zach chuckled softly but grew stiff soon after. 

I let go of his hand and look at the small crack in between the curtains. The sun wasn't even close to setting.  

"We'll be stuck in here for a while." Zach didn't reply. I turned towards him to notice his back was turned to me and he just nodded. What was wrong with him all of a sudden. 

"Zach you alright?" He just nodded. 

"Are you sure? You're suddenly acting weird." I say turning him around forcefully. His eyes had turned dark and his fangs where poking out of his lips. 

"Zach?" He balled his hands closing his eyes in concentration. 

"Please distract me." He says through gritted teeth. I sat up carefully and softly placed a hand on his shoulder. 

"What's happening?" 

"The sun weakend my selfcontroll. There's a heavely wounded villager nextdoor. Please distract me." My eyes widen realising what is hapening. 

"What do I do?" I asked him turning his head to me. I kept my hands on his cheeks hoping it would distract him. He shook his head and stood up abruptly. 

"Zach." I say sternly. He stopped but his breathing was heavy his hands balled up in fists. 

"Fight it Zach."

"I can't." He wispered.

"Yes you can. You're strong Zach. I believe in you. Just focus on me. Everything will be alright. Just focus on me." His eyes locked on mine as he turned back around. 

"Just talk to me." He slowely moved towards me like it took all his willpower not to go to the room nextdoor. He sat back down still balling his hands tightly. I took the hand closest to me in mine and rubbed circles on his knuckles. 

"Just talk to me. What did you do before I came back?" 

"I...I was looking at recipes." He managed to say in between gritted teeth.

"Why were you doing that?" It doesn't look like talking is distracting him. 

"I wanted to cook for you. To thank you for letting me stay." His hands tightened again for a moment and his eyes closed in concentration. 

"I don't know if I can take this for much longer." He admitted honestly.

"Did you feel like this when I was bleeding?"

"No for some reason the only thing I felt was worry." He sighed again closing his eyes. 

"Can you just knock me out?" He pleaded. I looked around for something I could do that with. 

"I'm sorry there's nothing I can use to knock you out." He groaned holding his head in his hands and closing his eyes tightly. I placed my hand on his shoulder. 

"You can do this Zach." He growled and suddenly got up and moved towards the door. Not at Vampire speed but at a regular human speed. It looked like he was trying to stop himselve but couldn't. 

"Zach!" I yelled getting up from the bed. 

"Zach stop!" I stumbled a bit as I tried to run after him. He was almost at the door when I reached him. I grabbed his arm and turned him around. 

"Stop! This isn't you." He turned us around so my back was against the wall and he pinned me to it. At first he glared at me but then his eyes softened. 

"Please distract me from this. I can't controll myselve anymore." I looked helplessly at him. He didn't want to do this but he just couldn't stop it.

"I don't know how." I tell him honestly. 

"Knock me out." 

"I don't have anything to do that."

"Kill me." It was sad that he even wanted to die, as long as he didn't become what he fought against.

"I'm still to weak to kill you." He was silent for a moment just looking in my eyes. 

"Can I try something else?" I nodded, wanting to help him in every way possible. Before I could do anything else or even say anything else his lips met mine.
