The Creatori 5
What's going on? Callie's just turned 16. But things are weird. On her way home she finds out that two of the neighbor's sheep have gone missing. No big deal right? But then she finds them outside her house, dead. Then upstairs in her bedroom, there's a beautiful man sitting on her bed. Callie's life is turned upside down as she finds out she is part of a species known as Creatori.

Yeah, you figured me out
Something gave it away
It would be such a beautiful moment
To see the look on your face
To know that I know that you know now
And baby that's a case of my wishful thinking
You know nothing
Well, you and I
Why, we go carrying on for hours on end
We get along much better
Than you and your boyfriend
Well all I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
How long, can I go on like this,
Wishing to kiss you,
Before I rightly explode?
Well, this double life I lead isn't healthy for me
In fact it makes me nervous
If I get caught I could be risking it all
'Cause maybe there's a lot that I miss
In case I'm wrong
All I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
If it kills me
If I should be so bold
I'd ask you to hold my heart in your hand
I'd tell you from the start how I've longed to be your man
But I never said a word
I guess I'm gonna miss my chance again
Well all I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
If it kills me
I think it might kill me
And all I really want to do is feel you
Yeah, the feeling inside keeps building
I'll find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
It might kill me"
He finished and looked up at me. Everyone but me and Ange clapped, because we were frozen with shock. Where had that voice come from? And since when did dumbo Rhys play the guitar? And that song? It sounded amazing, and if it were any other circumstance i'd be clapping till my hands drop off. But it wasn't. It included me. The song was clearly for me and about me and to me. Rhys smiled sheepishly at me and it snapped me out of my state. I marched over to him, grabbed him by his ear and dragged him to a quire spot. He howled and rubbed his ear which was bright red and obviously throbbing like hell.
"What the hell?!" I whisper/screeched at him. Rhys grabbed my hand with his spare and cradled it to his (hard) chest.
"I love you Callie" I stared at him, completely horrified and tried to snatch my hand away. But bloody Rhys and his bloody massive biceps, kept his grip on me.
"So why did you act like a right fucker when we went out?" I asked, genuinely curious.
"Because my parents were getting divorced and I know I was inattentive and I upset you, I couldn't concentrate on anything for three months after, on my education or on you. I'm sorry" he looked sincere. I bit my lip and hung my head. Shit. He went through that? And I was a bitch to him when I dumped him. I felt terrible.
"I'm so sorry Rhys. I didn't know...if I had then I wouldn't have....I'm sorry" I finally sighed. Rhys pulled me into a hug and I let him. He held me at length and smiled.
"Does this mean we can go out again?" he asked.
"No, Rhys. I...it's kind of complicated right now. Maybe...sometime later, in the future" I gave in after looking into his puppy dog eyes. He grinned, ducked his head, kissed me quickly on the lips and then turned and ran off. I stared dumb-founded at Angelica, who was smiling. She came and gave me a hug.
"Looks like someone's in love with my pallie Callie" she winked.
"Shut up!" I whined and punched her playfully. She slung her arm over my shoulders and we walked out the center.
I couldn't believe what had just happened. Rhys hadn't meant to be a horrible boyfriend. It was just that he was going through a rough time. I was thinking about his quick kiss when Max stepped in front of me. I stopped and as I looked into his eyes, I flinched. They were blazing. And there was blood on his hand, I was suddenly very scared.
"What-" I began but he stepped forward and a low growl rumbled through his throat.
"Why?" he growled.
"Why what?" I whimpered.
"Why did you let that...asshole kiss you!" he roared into my face. Angelica and I jumped back. I could hear sirens in the background. My eyes flashed from his hand, to his eyes and then to a bloody body lying on the ground surrounded by people. With horror, I realized what he had done.
"Did you kill Rhys!?" I screeched. He chuckled bitterly and turned his head to the side.
"No I didn't kill your precious Rhys," he sneered "I just lost my temper when he tried to get all touchy-feely with my girlfriend! So I punched him and the pussy collapsed and started bleeding all over the place". I stared at him. He was a vampire, not a human for god's sake! Why was he so jealous?! I hissed at him (whoa, where did that come from?!) and then stalked off to check on Rhys.
He was crumpled on the floor, head in hands, bleeding everywhere. I gasped as I bent over him. He turned his head a little and all I could see was his left eye peeking at me, then he moaned.
"Oh god Callie! That nutter just came over and whacked me one. Yattering on about you and kisses and ugh...I think he broke my nose. Do you know him?" he asked, his voice muffled.
I looked back at Max who was being questioned by Ange.I wouldn't be surprised if Rhys's poor nose was broken...he got punched by a pissed off vampire. Max glared at me and I turned back huffily.
"Yeah, but I wish I didn't" I muttered and as I helped him into the ambulance I hoped Max had heard me.

Right guys... I know the story's progressing at a slow rate, but all this is very important for later on in the story. So if you just bear with me for one or two more chapters then you'll get more sci-fi stuffs. Lol. The song Rhys is singing on the guitar is called If It Kills Me by Jason Mraz. It's an okay song, and I thought it fit perfectly with his feelings. Do you think this would fit better in love and romance or just short fiction instead of Sci-fi? I think it just might. Tell me what you think...
