True Blood

I Don't Wanna Know.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I scream throwing the blankets at Sam 

"Nothing. Sleeping." he cries back holding up his hands in surrender 

"Did you touch me?" I ask in disgust 

"Hell no, I swear. Megs, listen. Bill asked me to look after you while he was away." he says and I scoff 

"Did he ask you to do it buck-naked?" I ask and he shakes his head  "I want you out of here. Now." I say before he can defend himself anymore 

"Listen, Megs,  I need to tell you something about me, something I've never told." he says and I quickly punch him in the nose as he falls to the floor i scream 

"Oh, my God, it's you. You're the murderer." I cry before I run out of the room I quickly hide behind the couch but as I peak around it I see the dog sitting there

"Come dog" I whisper but all of a sudden it turns into Sam and I back up 

"I'm a shape-shifter." he whispers 

"Shut the fuck up." I say laughing  "A shape-shifter?" I ask when Sam and I walk outside and sit on the porch 

"Most of us refer to ourselves simply as shifters." he replies 

"Well, how many of you are there?" I ask curious 

"Thousands, tens of thousands, maybe. We don't exactly have a newsletter." he says smirking 

"Do you come from, like, a family of shifters or something?" I ask 

"It's hereditary, so yeah, I suppose. But, I was adopted. And the family that took me in... We just never talked about it." he says and I sigh 

"Can you turn into anything, like cats, birds?" I ask and he nods 

"Cats, sure. Yeah, I can do bird, but flying's hard. Dog's the easiest for me. People like dogs. Most other animals leave you alone." he responds and I look at him in disgust 

"I used to scratch your belly in the parking lot at the bar." I say and he just laughs 

"That wasn't me, that was a real dog. Yeah, I need a live animal in order to... To shift. You know, as a model. Kind of like an imprint." he responds and I let out a sigh of relief 

"Can you turn into another person?" I ask 

"Humans are too complex. Despite what you might see at the bar." he says trying to crack a joke 

"Can you do it any time, or...? Or what?" I ask 

"Yeah, but it wears off if I fall asleep. And on a full moon, I can't stop the shift." he says a I tilt my head 

"Like a werewolf?" I ask 

"We're not werewolves. Hey, werewolves are dangerous,
nasty creatures. Do not call me a werewolf." he says seemingly offended 

"Werewolves exist too? What else is there?" I ask and he sighs 

"More than you can imagine." he whispers and I shake my head before walking back inside. Sam follows 

"I can't... Life is just getting too weird too fast. Could a werewolf have killed Gran?" I ask 

"I suppose it's possible." he replies 

"Oh, my God. Bill's been dragged off by vampires, and now I find out you're something I never even knew existed." I say and I feel the tears start to stream down my face and Sam places his hand 

"Don't!" I say as he tries to touch me and he scoffs 

"I thought you of all people would understand." he says and I shake my head 

"Because I'm dating a vampire?" I ask and he shakes his head 

"You live with a secret." he replies 

"I don't hide who I am." I state 

"I wanted to tell you for years!" he cries 

"I kissed you! And I know you wanted to do more than that. Were you gonna tell me before or after?" I yell before getting up and walking away. the next day I was stuck trying to help Sam set up but we didn't talk at all about what happened last night  

"Megs, could you reach me up another box of paper lanterns?" he asks from a distance 

"I'm kind of busy right now setting up your bar." I reply. Finally when everything was done people started turning up and I sat alone by myself 

"I'd ask you to dance, but I don't dance." Terry says as he walks up to me 

"Thanks anyhow, Terry. Sometimes, crowds makes me feel guilty for not having fun like everyone else. And then I feel guilty for feeling guilty." I sigh and he laughs 

"Guilt is a useless emotion. Or so I've heard." he replies 

"I just wish Bill was here." I reply 

"There's some dead people I wish was still around too." he sighs before smiling at me and walking away finally I decide to get up and dance with Rene 

"May I borrow her?" I hear Sam ask and Rene backs away and i begin dancing with Sam he sighs 

"Okay, truce? It's not fair you being mad about something I can't help." Sam whines 

"I'm mad that you didn't trust me enough to tell me. You hid the most important thing about yourself." I reply 

"So what? You're with Bill now." he says 

"Yeah, and you're with Tara. Another thing you didn't tell me." I hiss and he laughs 

"'Cause there's nothing to tell." he replies 

"Oh, does she know that? Or the fact that you can turn into a dog?" I say and he sighs 

"It's none of her business. And you know what, I didn't tell you because I knew this is how you'd react. But you're right I didn't trust you. I trusted my instincts, and they were dead-on." he says as he walks away furious 

"Honey, you seen Sam? We're out of ice." Alrene says walking up to me and I sigh 

"I'll get it. I could use a break from all this anyhow." I sigh walking away but i hear Arlene call behind me 

"Well, thanks for having such a great time at my party." she screams as I go inside to feel up the Ice the lights turn off 

"That's not funny." I cry 

death, help the voice inside me cries and I duck behind the bench before going to look up again. Someone grabs me by the neck and I punch them as I run out into the hallway I try the doors but nothing seems to be opening. I duck as I hear someone walk into the room 

Death

I run as I hear the footsteps approach but they catch up to be quickly I scream as loud as I can and I see all the glass shutter around him and he falls to the ground. I quickly run out of the room and as I look back, I slam into something 

 "Megs, it's me." Sam cries and I jump into him 

"He's in here. He almost... Please, please don't leave me. Don't leave me. Please don't leave me." I cry into him 

"I won't. I won't. I promise."  he says but he places his hands to his lips as he goes to look at the noise 

"Don't leave me." I cry and he nods 

"Ok, ok I promise" he whispers and I sob into his arms.
