Mine

Part 32 (Colby's POV)

Penny didn't let me at the mansion for the next week, and I barely saw her. I knew she was busy with her clan, making new vampires and working on their control. I was busy too. I was making my videos and appearing in my roommates videos, plus getting ready for another Sam and Colby tour. When I told Penny about the tour, she said it was good that I was getting out of state. Away from Micheal. She also said that she would also make sure that Micheal wasn't following me. How she was going to do that, I had no idea as she never told me.
"How are you going to feed?" I had asked her when the thought occurred to me. We were at Trap House 2.0, up in my room. "I mean, I won't be in state."
"I'll survive." She answered. "I may not be able to feed off other humans, but I'm sure I'll survive a few blood bags. Besides, your tour isn't for another month. Relax."
"You should take that advice."
"I'm fine, Colby." She replied. "It's a vampire's nature to be a little stressed. We're always looking over our shoulders."
"It sounds tough. A vampire's life, I mean."
"It has it's perks. Like being able to smell a lot more than humans." She says, smiling. "And being faster," She suddenly pushes me down on the bed and sits on top of me. For how small she was, it was no surprise how light she was. "And stronger." She takes my hands and pins them above my head. I look up at my hands and attempt to break free, but it was useless. It didn't even look like she was using much effort.
"It sounds like fun."
Her smile falters and her eyes flash. "It can be."
"You don't want me to be like you, do you?" I ask after a seconds pause.
Her smile disappears, and she lets me go. "No."
"Why not?"
"I have my reasons."
"Can't I know?" Did she not want me?
"I don't want you to be like me because you won't be you."
"What do you mean?"
"When a vampire is born, they're not the same as when they were human. When you're human, you want more than one thing. You want to live. You want a wife or husband. You want kids. You want that promotion at work. But when you're a vampire, none of that matters. There's only one thing you want above all else. And to some, it means killing. Being a vampire changes you."
"I want you." I say. "I want you and nothing else."
She shakes her head. "No, you won't. You might still want me, but only blood will matter more."
I open my mouth to respond, but I close it when I realize that she was probably right. She had been a vampire longer than nine times my age. She knew more than me.
"You also have a life, Colby. You have family, friends and fans. And you want to give that up? You want to give up possibly having kids? You'd be giving up so much."
"I told you already. I only want you." I say firmly.
Penny doesn't reply. Instead she turns her head to the door. "Come in."
The door opens and Sam pokes his blond head in. "Oh,"  He blushes when he sees the scene in front of him. "Should I come back later?"
"No, what do you need?" Penny asks.
"I was gonna ask Colby if I can borrow his camera."
I frown. "What for?"
"I was gonna prank Jake." Sam answers. "Corey's saying we should do another prank war."
"Another one? I'm all out of ideas."
Sam shrugs. "Same here, brother. Kat came up with this one, not me."
"What are you going to do?" Penny moves off of me and I stand up, grabbing my camera off my desk. I take my SD card out and hand the camera to him.
"She said I should block his door from the inside. Make it so he can't get in."
"Sounds too easy." I reply. "You should tie his door handle with a rope and attach it to something else from the outside too."
Sam laughs. "I'll do that too then." He turns to leave. "Thanks for the camera."
I turn back to Penny. "Another prank war?" She asks.
"Yeah. If Corey decides to announce one, I'll be a goner. I'm fresh out of ideas."
"Maybe you guys should do a couples one. You know, Sam and Kat, Corey and Devyn, Jake and Tara, you and I." She suggests. "Should be fun. And, I have so many ideas already."
I smile. "I'll bring it up to Corey."
