I think you could write this story with several alternative endings, not the least of which would be having her be back home before daylight. She could learn to take just a small amount of his blood or if she failed that she could have turned him and they would have been together. How about writing a couple of different endings and let the readers know which they like the best?
A sad ending, yes, a painful ending for sure, but utterly believable in terms of these two characters. So not a bad ending at all. Actually, very romantic.
She redeemed herself because of him.
Perhaps I missed this one part if anything was said at all, but why was the possibility (or reality) of Gary being turned never mentioned or considered in any way, shape, or form? It seems more than fitting for this story if you think about them loving each other for eternity.
That said, I hope you continue Gary's story; you certainly left enough clues for the possibility of future adventures of a reluctant hero.
