Ruth stayed in the tent but I didn't

'hey your Jake right'

I turned to look at the girl who I had saved, Lilly. 'yeah that's me'

she smiled

'come and join us'

I looked at our tent and then looked at Lilly 'uh yeah sure'

'so I see you've got Ruth under your arm then' Carter said in a tone that was a mixture of anger and jealousy

I knew what he meant by that and it made me annoyed. I nodded 'yeah' I said blankly

Carter was about to speak but Luke cut him off

'you'd better look after her, hurt her in any way and you'll have us to deal with. Understand....?'

Carter smiled

'yeah. What he said'

they didn't scare me but I knew what they meant. I nodded 'don't you worry about that'

Sharlene half smiled

'I'm changing the subject by the way. Hows Ruth?'

I looked at Sharlene and sighed 'She's okay but she's still recovering after the anger. I knew that Lilly was turned because I turned her but I couldn't let them find out.

Tara sighed

'we all miss her talking to us, we may not want to admit that to her but we do. I can tell that you boys,' she turned to Luke, Sam and Carter 'Carter, Sam and Luke still love her. I can tell that we all miss her'

I was touched by that, okay I wasn't happy that three other boys loved her but I could really feel how Tara felt. It comes with being a vampire. I gave them a sympathetic look 'do you want me to talk to her for you?'

they all nodded eagerly

Ruth

I might have said something similar to this before. Before I said that my life was like a leaf blowing in the wind on a cold Autumns day, where running kids trample it. I also said that you should live your life while you have the chance and that I lost my chance to do that, I was on about Sunday. On Sunday something really bad happened to me, something I may never be able to come back from. This is what happens.

 I was beginning to wonder if Jake had abandoned me when finally he came in

  'you shouldn't be so hard on them'

  my smile became a frown 'what do you mean?'

 he sighed

  'they all miss you Ruth, especially the boys'

  I sighed 'well they should have thought about it before they got on my bad side then, shouldn't they'

  he sighed

 'it's late Ruth get some sleep, think about it'

 I sighed. I was annoyed because I knew that he was avoiding the subject but I let it drop.

  'Ruth'

 I groaned. I looked at my clock, one o'clock. I groaned again 'who's calling?' I said with an annoyed tired voice

  'it's Carter, come out'

  I hesitated, I was still angry at him but then I remembered what Jake had said. Truth be told I actually still had feelings for him. I looked at Jake to check he was asleep and he was 'hold on a second' I whispered. I quickly got out of my sleeping bag, unzipped the tent, put my shoes on and crawled out out. 'Carter what are you-'

  'shh....follow me' before I could protest Carter grabbed my arm and pulled me towards the lake

  'Ruth I'm sorry'

  I sighed 'couldn't this wait until morning' I said harshly

  he frowned

 'it's not possible to wait until morning, because your boyfriend is in the way,' he paused and looked at my angry face 'Ruth why are you going out with him, you love me not him'

 okay now I was annoyed 'okay firstly he's not in the way, your just jealous and secondly he's been here for me unlike you'

  'do you love him?'

 I was slightly annoyed that he was avoiding the subject but I let it slide. The truth was I loved them both. 'Carter'

  'you didn't answer my question, do you love him?' he said sternly

 I really wanted to say no but that would be a lie. I love him but I love Carter too. 'yes'

  his face dropped

 'let's see how you feel after this then' he said sadly

 before I could react Carter kissed me and surprisingly I found myself kissing him back.

  'if you can look at me and tell me that you didn't feel anything then I'll let you go'

 oh boy what had I got myself into. Carter's kiss was amazing but I loved Jake too. 'Carter I....'

  he smiled

 'just as I thought'

 I sighed 'Carter I left and you didn't stop me and now I'm with Jake'

  he sighed

  'I didn't know you wanted me to stop you'

 'this was so upsetting, I had to rub my eyes to prevent me from crying 'see that's the thing Carter, I did. It makes me sad that you didn't know because a true boyfriend that loves me wouldn't have to be told when their about to make a mistake,' I saw his face drop 'it's getting late I'd better go' after that I left and he didn't even try to stop me. For the rest of the night I stayed wide awake silently crying, that was the worst breakup that I had ever had.
