Forced To Buy A Vampire Slave -Chapter 17-

"I didn't do anything." I said.

"Yes you did."

"Well fine, I'm sorry."

"It's not something an apology can fix."

"I told you the truth. Would you rather I had lied?"

He thought for a moment, "No."

I sighed and leaned back against the seat.

I was starting to get a headache; I massaged my temples hoping it would help.

God I hate headaches, it seems like I have one everyday.

"You know-

I looked over at Corey.

"-I'm starting to think you're getting sick of me." He said.

I ran my fingers through my hair, "Why would you think that?"

He shrugged, "Just seems like I annoy you a lot."

"You don't annoy me." I said.

"Seems like I do."

I sighed.

"Why can't you just admit it, your sick of me." He said.

"I'm not, I'm just tired." I said.

"And I'm not helping." He said.

"No your not." I replied.

"Well I guess I'll just shut up."

I looked at him; he was looking out the window again.

I hated that he was upset but I didn't know what to say to make things better, it seemed like I was just making things worse.

It was silent but it seemed like there was tension.

Corey sighed.

I was about to say something but my cell phone started ringing.

I picked it up, "Hello?"

"Hey Bells, you rang?"

"Oh Drake, thank god. You have to come get us."

"Come get you? Why?" He asked

"Because my car broke down." I replied.

"Where at?"

I told him where and how to get there.

"Alright I'm on my way, but it'll be a few hours."

"Okay, thanks Drake, love you."

"Love ya too Bells, I'll be as fast as I can."

"Okay bye."

I hung up the phone and put it back on the dashboard.

"Drake's coming to get us; he'll be here in a few hours." I said to Corey.

Corey nodded.

"Corey I'm really sorry, I don't want you to be upset." I said.

"It's fine Arabelle." He replied.

"Are you mad at me?" I asked.

"No."

He wasn't reassuring me.

"I feel bad." I said.

He sighed, "It's fine Arabelle, really, don't feel bad, it's my fault."

"How is it your fault?" I asked.

"I shouldn't have brought it up...it's just, I've been nice to you haven't' I?" He asked.

"Yes." I replied.

"And I haven't done anything to you to not have you trust me."

"Right."

"Then why don't you trust me?"

"I don't know."

"Do you like me?" He asked.

I laughed, "Of course I do."

"Do you consider us friends?"

"Yes."

"Friends trust each other."

"Do you really want to know why I don't trust you?" I asked.

"Yes." He answered.

I took a deep breath, "Don't be offended but I think you're arrogant."

He looked shocked, "Don't be offended, how could I not? You seriously think I'm arrogant?"

"Yes..."

"Wow...that's the meanest thing you've ever said to me."

"I'm sorry." I said.

"You can't call me arrogant then say you're sorry."

"Well you are..." I muttered.

"Just stop, you've hurt my feelings enough."

"This is the first mean thing I've ever said to you even know you've been mean to me before I was always nice."

"I never asked you to be nice!"

"Well you didn't have to."

"You know what I blame you for everything; if you wouldn't have been so god damn nice we would have never been friends. He said.

"Are you saying its bad thing we're friends?" I asked.

"Yes. Vampires and humans shouldn't be friends; it's just the way it should be. I should have never kissed you, god what I have done?"

I looked down; I bit my lip trying to hold back the tears.

He couldn't really mean that could he?

I opened the car door and stepped out into the rain; I closed the door and leaned the side of the car. I slid down and sat on the wet ground.

The rain mixed with tears, I looked up at the dark sky as the rain came down in masses and drenched me.

I pulled my knees against my chest and laid my head on my knees as I cried.
