Restart

• • • Bullshit • • •

My ordeal with Aaron and the doctors in the hospitals was cut short when I stood up, ripped out the IV's and left. No amount of arguing and following me down the hallways would make me stop.
I grimaced at the smell of each room as I walked by.
Too... Sanitized and pristine. Gross.
"Amelia listen, you are in no condition to-"
"Shut the hell up" the words ripped from my throat without permission but I was in no place to take it back.
I was leaving for their sake and mine.
They didn't need to be part of a blood bath and I was not in the mood for a shower. Sort of a win win situation.

My fingers fumbled for my little token of hope as I walked through the park.
I placed it between my lips and watched the end burn bright orange against my lighter,  then inhaled, and blew out the smoke through my nose.
I have to be honest, I wasn't the kind of person who took care of myself. Not that I needed to, being immortal had it's perks. I can smoke forever and it will never give me cancer or anything, I don't age, I can't die, I don't have to eat or drink anything and I'll always have this "young energy". Now you are probably wondering why or how I am immortal but that is no business for little ears like yours.
The end of my cigarette came too soon and I snarled to myself.
"Goddamn it.."
"You shouldn't be speaking like that young lady" a larger woman that sat on the bench promptly said to my state of anger.
My eyes pierced towards her and I smirked "fine.. Then satan bless it."
Her eyes grew wide and the obviousness of her shock was plastered on her face.
Dumbass.
I turned on my heel and headed towards my apartment building. I decided I would stay there until any trouble came around.

I jumped as a raindrop patted my head.

Great, rain! Just what everyone loves!
I thought to myself.
Almost as soon as I thought that, my hood was flipped up.
I turned around in an instant and looked into the brilliant blue eyes. A hospital mask covered his mouth. It wasn't uncommon to see people with them now a days, it was clever.
"Jeff..." I said quietly "you shouldn't go on scaring people like that."
He scoffed "You, scared? Oh please Miriana-"
"Amelia" I snapped.
He held his hands up in a defensive way. "Anyway," he continued "the likelihood of anything scaring you after all these years is utter bullshit."
He shoved his hands in his pockets and walked along side me.
I couldn't help but roll my eyes and smile, knowing it was true. "Well, it's more believable to the normals out there." I giggled.
We called all mortal people, so, people like you, normals. I came up with the term because well, you're normal, we aren't. Tada. Oh the logic.
"You know, you should have stuck around the hospital Amelia" Jeff said softly.
I looked at him but he kept his gaze forward, not looking at me momentarily, then his eyes met mine.
I wasn't going to lie, I had always loved Jeff. As in true love, not the mushy, back and forth "I love you, no I don't" shit that all girls seem to have. I had solidly loved him and knew I always would. He did not know however, no one did because well, I didn't want them to.
I didn't want to say anything so I nodded in response because as usual, he was right.
