Do I Matter At All?
by Amazon Syren

 

     Well, here I am again. Pining.
     This is hardly a very vampire thing to do.
     Other people are supposed to pine for us, preferably while standing on a balcony or next to an open window with suitably billowing curtains.
     But no.
     Maladict has to go all weepy-eyed over a human.
     My mother would be disgusted...
     Of course, if I’m honest with myself, that’s actually not a bad incentive to keep doing it.
     But still.

     Maybe I shouldn’t have told her that I’m a girl.
     I mean, technically, I told Jade, too, but… What does Jade care?
     No.
     Polly would care, though. One way or the other, it had to have mattered, even if she didn’t act like it did. (Is that why I’m regretting this? Because she didn’t go all ‘Oh My Gods, You’re What???’ at me?) It had to have meant something to her, didn’t it?
     Didn’t I?
