You had recently been bitten and were in the process of tuning from a fledgling into a vampire, which wasn’t the easiest to adapt to. Your main problems were your intense bloodlust and the constant mood swings.

The bloodlust gave you a sense of hunger that started out normal, but if not acted upon, got progressively worse and caused headaches and body aches, along with your fangs sticking out uncontrollably when you could smell blood or hear a heartbeat. Nothing helped except for blood, and eating regular food did practically nothing.

The mood swings caused a good amount of problems as well. They were unpredictable and often led to nasty comments, arguments, yelling, or crying. That meant you ended up in detention a lot…especially in the past week. It also meant you got into arguments with friends a lot, though mainly Benny.

Today was worse than usual, you were walking home with Benny, while struggling with your hunger. The conversation was normal and all of a sudden you snapped, and started speaking rudely and eventually yelling at him.

You two went back and forth for a while until Benny eventually yelled; “Bite Me!” daring you to do something to him, not actually telling you to bite him. Then you stopped walking, and snapped out of your anger, just telling him to shut up.

Benny stopped, realizing what he’d said, and immediately apologizing. “No I wasn’t trying to be-I-I didn’t mean it like that-! It just slipped I swear, I’m so sorry!”
