"Blood Runs Cold." Chapter 7:

"Truthfully, even though we've been around for a while, there's still a lot that we don't know. Like if we can actually die another way, though I really wouldn't want to know," Maxine said, then she turned more towards Kiki. "We're pretty cool, though. Like vampires, but we don't kill humans or sparkle, depending on which vampire books you've read. Girls get awesome powers, even though they're based off of personality flaws." "Guess it's another way to get to know someone." Kiki said, and Maxine nodded. "All the guys get though, is the ability run faster, jump higher, be stronger, but then again, they got that when we were human." "Sucks to suck." Maxine laughed and nodded again and turned towards the TV. "I remember when I turned. It was 1852, and I was being set up to marry the wealthy, new, young farm owner in town, who was about 25. I liked him, but more like a brother, not someone I wanted to have kids with, even though he's completely flawless. He knew I didn't want to marry him, he didn't want to marry me either, he told me later he was there to help me. In case you didn't realize, the farm owner was James Diamond V, which he told me later, he was actually James Diamond II, but has just never aged. We were going to get married on my 17th birthday, but a few hours ago before the wedding, I started to change, and everyone thought I died. James told everyone he would bury me himself, since that's technically the husband's job, though we weren't married yet, and when I woke up, we left town and took different last names. I actually pretended to be his wife until I met Logan in 1864." "Damn. That's actually really cool of James to do that." "Yeah, he may seem like a non caring guy, but he actually does sweet things without trying to." "And, Logan. Logan said he was part of the Confederate army." "That's true, he was. We lived in the South when the war started, and James, being a solider at heart, joined and became head of his platoon. He knew he wouldn't die. When he realized Logan was going to change soon, he stayed close to him, and when he changed, they slipped out of their platoon and headed North, changing out of their Confederate uniforms, of course." Kiki smiled a little, and nodded. "How have all of you guys put up with each other for this long?" "Believe me, it's not easy sometimes. But, when you actually love someone, you put up with them through everything. Soulmates included." "And I thought soulmates weren't real." Kiki said sarcastically, and Maxine laughed. "Okay, so I did leave something out about guys. You know in Twilight, where the wolves imprint on someone? The guys kind of do that with us, too. I think it's some sort of man instinct to be like, this is my girl. No one else can have her. Except, instead of the sweet little imprinting shit, it's more like, look at my girl, and I'll rip your throat out, type thing." Kiki laughed a little and rolled her eyes. "That's so animalistic." "I know. But when it happens, guys are never the same. Like, James hasn't been the same since you've come around. And he's been waiting for a long time. A little over 200 years." "You think James kind of imprinted on me?" "After you changed and he came back, he stayed with you, and wouldn't let any of us in the room with you guys. Yeah, he kind of imprinted on you." Then, they heard someone else walking down the stairs.
