and live our lives. It’s what we owe them for being there for us all their lives.” Adrielle looked shocked. She looked up at Ariana and unfolded herself from the kneeling position she was in. She wouldn’t have in her entire life expected Ariana to be the one saying this. In fact, she expected herself to be the one to pull things together. Anyhow, she knew that Ariana was right. Adrielle nodded to show that she understood, and that she was willing to try her best to move on and try to be happy. She wrapped her thin arms around Ariana’s lean frame and hugged her tightly; at least she knew she had someone there for her no matter what.
Chapter 4

By the next month everything was completely different from what their recent mornings had been like. They seemed to be themselves again. They decided that they would pretend as if they were taking a long vacation from home. They knew however, that their past would end up catching up to them sooner or later. As Ariana was standing by the cash register, 2 handsome boys walked into the coffee shop. Handsome was an understatement. They were god-like, almost as if they weren’t real. And best of all they looked just as if their age was perfect for Ariana and Adrielle. “Welcome to Java coffee shop, what would you like to order?” asked Ariana focusing on her notepad. She hadn’t bothered to glance up until they spoke.


“2 regular coffees please.” said the boy with dirty blonde hair. He was gazing down at Ariana. When she finally looked away from the notepad she gawked. She was completely stunned by the boys. The boy on the right had dirty blonde hair and blue eyes. The other had light brunette hair with lilac eyes. They were sexy, muscular, and tall.


“Uh, okay. I’ll get that for you both right away.” The light brunette seemed pleased with her reaction as he smirked boyishly. Ariana practically bolted to the back. “Adrielle!”


“What?” Adrielle asked nervously. She hadn’t seen Ariana this excited about something in a while. “Two hot guys, both of them are tall, blue and purple eyes, amazing hair, oh my gosh!” Ariana whispered ecstatically. She didn’t want Jen to hear her drooling over two customers. Adrielle’s eyes lit up like a Christmas tree.


“Seriously?! Where show me!” Ariana grabbed Adrielle and together they peaked out the door window. Both knew that they weren’t ready to hold a stable relationship, but they knew they could at least enjoy the view. Ariana pointed to the two boys sitting out in the booth. “Oh…my…they are freaking gorgeous!” Adrielle was busy fantasizing about the guy with the dirty blonde hair when she was interrupted by Ariana.


“Oh, and they need 2 coffees.” said Ariana as she remembered she was at work. Adrielle grumbled as she went back to grinding coffee beans.


“Liam, did you see her?” said Logan. He was watching Ariana intently as she counted money. He noticed her resemblance to Elizabeth. She had the same dark hair, tall slender body, and most of all her oceanic sapphire eyes.


“Yeah…it’s quite creepy how much she looks like Elizabeth.” Replied Liam amusedly. He watched as Logan stared at Ariana as if she were Elizabeth. But she wasn’t and he hoped Logan knew this. He glanced down at his watch impatiently. The thirst was killing him.


“This is creepy….they resemble each other so well…” Logan muttered to himself. His thoughts trailed to memories of him and Elizabeth the night it had all happened. He remembered the night that he lost his first love, and theoretically, his life. Ariana came out with the coffee ruining his trail of memories. “Alright, here you are…anything else?” she asked politely. Her skin cheeks felt hot as the fumed with a crimson color. Liam snickered when he saw her blush. Logan flashed a nasty look at him to get him to shut up.


“Uhm, no we’re good. Thank you.” Logan replied in the same courteous manner. Ariana nodded and began to walk away when Logan grabbed her wrist. “Hey what’s your name?” Ariana panicked a little and gave him a flustered look.


“ uh…umm…Ariana” she managed to spit out. Ariana was embarrassed about how she was so close to forgetting her own name in front of this god-like human. Before Logan could answer, Adrielle waltzed out of the back room and stood next to Adrielle. She pretended to tell her that she ran out of cream in the back, which seemed to crack Ariana up. Adrielle gave her a look that meant to just play along. Ariana just handed her the money and told her to go tell Jen about it. Adrielle groaned and was about to turn away when she noticed Liam ogling her. Liam hands started to quiver and he almost looked afraid. She looks just like Stella he thought to himself. He noticed that she looked just like Ariana except for the eyes and height. Adrielle was a little bit taller. But both were tall, thin, and absolutely beautiful. He kept gawking until Adrielle waved her hand in front of him.


“Is there something on my face or something?” she asked sarcastically. She glowered at him. She loathed it when people just stared at her. Liam didn’t respond. Instead his eyes shifted to Logan.


“Uh, I know this is weird because I don’t ever know you but would you like to go to a movie or something?” Ariana started blushing. Adrielle looked at her with disbelief. She had NEVER seen Ariana blush before, granted these guys were hot, but still.


“Uh, sure.” She said smiling, showing her pearly whites. She didn’t have the thought of them being potentially dangerous run across her mind. She barely knew him, but she caught herself agreeing to go on a date him. Adrielle nudged Ariana and pulled her aside.


“Are you crazy?” she whispered, “You barely know him. For all we know he could be a serial killer.” Ariana rolled her eyes and giggled.


“When did you become the worry wart?” Ariana said playfully. “Besides it’s time for me to have a little fun!” Adrielle remained silent and just nodded. Ariana strolled back over to Logan, and batted her eyelashes. Adrielle looked back over at Liam who was gawking at her again.


“Wait. My best friend…I can’t just ditch her…” she heard Ariana say sadly. Adrielle walked over and hit her upside the head jokingly.


“It’s fine, Ariana. We aren’t attached at the hip!” she stated. Ariana beamed gratefully at her. Adrielle just returned the smile and walked away hoping that the mysterious hot guy would ask her to go with him.


“Oh no it’s fine. My brother here, he’ll be coming as well.” Logan suggested. Adrielle clicked her heels and faced the three of them again. Before she could even object to the pity date, Ariana cut in.


“Oh okay. Perfect. I’m Ariana and my friend, her name is Adrielle.” Adrielle just waved and smiled awkwardly. Liam stared at her intently again. Adrielle watched his blue eyes get deeper and softer the longer he looked at her.


“I’m Logan and this is Liam.” Logan gestured towards Victor, who was too busy looking at Adrielle to acknowledge Ariana.


“Oh okay, nice to meet you both. I’ll see you guys at the movies tomorrow night at 8.” Ariana spoke sweetly. She was also wondering why he was looking at Adrielle as if he was already in love with her or something.


“Oh wait, what are your last names?” asked Liam abruptly. Adrielle and Ariana exchanged looks. They were shocked by the question, but they knew they needed an answer now. Adrielle forgetting she had to use a fake name began to speak.


“Oh mine is Ma—“But before Adrielle could finish, Ariana cut her off. “My last name is Clark and Adrielle’s is Smith.”


“Uh yeah…what she said.” Adrielle murmured.


“Anyways, we have to get back to work. Bye, see you all at 8 tomorrow night.” said Ariana cheerfully. She was twirling her hair and beaming from ear to ear. Logan said his goodbyes and practically had to drag Liam with him.


“Adrielle and Ariana…” said Liam sternly. “You don’t think…” he trailed off realizing it was practically impossible.


“She looks like Elizabeth…and Adrielle looks like Stella. But they aren’t them. They have human written all over them not to mention the blood pulsating throughout their bodies. But maybe they can help us find them.” Logan’s violet eyes blazed as he thought of his first love and also his first enemy Elizabeth Marino.

Chapter 5

Later the next day, Logan and Liam walked up the two stories to Adrielle and Ariana’s apartment. They looked around noticing the cracks in the pavement and the algae growing around the sides. They didn’t think the place was fit for a pair of two 19 year old girls. They waited patiently, in the vast living room as the two girls got ready. When they descended the mini stairwell, Liam and Logan’s face fell grave. They were beautiful, far more beautiful than Elizabeth and Stella, but they were still very comparable looking. “You guys look sick….” Adrielle said disappointedly. She fiddled her thumbs nervously and her eyes filled with worry as she noticed their pale faces. “Do you need water or anything?” she pointed at the bottle of water and began to walk over when Liam spoke up.


“No, we are fine, you look gorgeous.” Liam couldn’t believe his own eyes. She was stunning, amazing, but her personality, he could tell, was completely different. In an instant he wanted to hold her in his arms and just tell her he loved her. It took all this strength to act casual
