Slowly I turn to face her, a wary smile masking my sudden fear
Before I could get a single breath out, she began "What are you?"
Eyes widening and mouth gasping while accusation pinned my heart
"Why do you keep asking that!"
With one hand pushing her black layered hair out of her face; giving me my first glance at her delicate face, the other on her hip
Looking away from me at last with her piercing yellow eyes finally softening, "You smell weird" she quickly stated, sounding embarrassed
Well thanks
"I was treading in snow fifteen minutes ago, I can't smell that bad" I retorted, lips forming a pathetic pout
She rolled her glowing eyes with a smirk, "Not like that, but who knows? Might not want to get to close"
What in the world
I scanned her form, hoping the answer would just pop out, "I'm lost"
"You're natural scent"
What's the difference?
"What's that supposed to mean?"
With a blank look she mumbled, "Your scent burns my nose" still not meeting my confused gaze
Being completely honest, she's crazy
Intrigued,"What do I smell like?"
Finally, she looks at me again; running her eyes up and down as if physically looking for words
"Something so sweet it's bitter"
Huh...
"So?" I emphasize, my posture slowly leaning
"It's-" she cut herself off as she focused on her feet shifting side to side
"It's uh, it's inhuman"
Well would you look at that
Better add "My smell" to the list
"I wouldn't consider you very human either" I say in defense, crossing my arms as I looking up at the suddenly interesting trees
"Why is that? Not that I disagree with you" she stated with a arrogant smile, suddenly getting her confidence back
"Well" I began, lengthening each syllable while I search for a good argument
I did follow the footsteps
"You were a furry beast not to long ago"
Now she was the one with wide eyes
Silence
With pride blooming in my heart and a smug expression painting my face, I take my chance to analyze her character
Round face, almost child like
Nose was short and button like; it reminded me of a white rabbit
Her oliy black hair reached just below her shoulders, each strand was a different length
She was probably above average height, her chin reaching a little above my shoulder
Her eyes...
Her eyes
They were the most inhuman thing on her
In this form at least
They were as bright as amber and glew like liquid gold, with sparkling brown scattered at its edges
Breaking the silence, she mumbles something inaudible
Making eye contact, she repeats herself
"Vampire"
