and smiled causing a shiver to crawl up my spine. I turned my face into Erin’s chest and closed my eyes. I felt tears of betrayal slip out of my eyes as I felt the presence of the king come closer but I didn’t look up.
I felt the king touch my shoulder then I felt my hospital gown and sheet transform into a strapless floor length gown. My eyes flew open as I felt the kings lips on my neck. I jerked but couldn’t even move much more than an inch because Erin was holding me so tightly that it hurt.
The king inhaled then sighed. “Mmmmm. She smells delicious.” Then he bit me. I felt the pain but refused to cry out so instead I settled with glaring at him. To my surprise the king looked amused and when he saw the look on my face he barked a laugh which caused me to glare even more venomously.
The pain in my neck where the king bit me then started to… feel good. It felt like I was sitting in a warm bath. I wrinkled my brow puzzled as the warmth spread through my body.
“There son she’ll make the perfect concubine.” The king said satisfied.
“Over my dead body,” I snapped outraged. I freed myself from Erin’s grasp and stood staring at the king with murder in my eyes. The king just chuckled.
“You should be honored, human,” said Miss Prissy Pretty Faery. I whirled on her and smiled cruelly.
“Well, unlike you Miss Priss I don’t dress like a slut and throw myself at anyone who’ll have me,” I said snidely. That really pissed her off because she lunged for my throat. I didn’t even try to sidestep her I just stood there and smiled when she crashed into the force-field I had surrounded myself in.
The field electrocuted her and threw her against the wall. I wasn’t worried though because I knew it wouldn’t of hurt Miss Priss just humiliate her.
“No,” the king said to Miss Priss,” Hellena, don’t hurt her she is very important to our survival as a race.”
“Huh,” I said brilliantly. Then I knew that the kings bite had taken my humanity. With that realization I collapsed in on myself. I slid to the floor and buried my face in my hands and started sobbing. I felt Erin put his arms around me but he was part of the reason that this was happening to me so I shoved him away.
“Stop that,” the king said.
“I’ll cry if I want to,” I shot back then an old song started to play in my head: It’s my party and I’ll cry if I want to, cry if I want to, cry--- if I want to
I burst out laughing and everyone in the room looked at me like I was crazy.
“Hey, don’t look at me like I’m crazy because I’m not crazy I’m insane there’s a distinct difference,” I said trying to sound haughty and contemptuous and only succeeded in bursting into another fit of giggles. I sighed and dried my tears and gave them my best suffering look then stood with as much dignity as I could muster and said, “I’ll be in touch.” Then turning on my heel I swept from the room with way more confidence than I really felt. To be honest I was terrified that they were going to chase after me and luckily they didn’t until I was half way back to the hospital.
“Cyrene, you can’t run away from this,” Eric said as he matched his stride to mine.
“I’m not running away from this but I can’t just go missing from my life. And anyway I still need to get vicious dress for the summer dance. It is tomorrow isn’t it?”
“Yes, but—“, he started to say but I cut him off.
“Erin please don’t, I don’t want to think about it now. I can’t think about it now or I might just end up curled up in a ball and crying until the end of days so just don’t.” Eric understood so he shut up. He just didn’t understand well enough to know that I don’t want him to touch me. The second his skin touched mine I hissed like a cat and shied away from him. Erin’s face showed hurt and embarrassment and I didn’t have enough compassion left in me to apologize so I turned and left him behind.
When we walked into the hospital parking lot I saw a bunch of my friends getting out of Arnold’s car.
“Hey, guys!!!” I yelled excitedly as I jogged over to meet them.
“Whoa,” said Garrett a totally cute guy from the junior class who had always been really nice to me. I stared at him quizzically but shook it off and turned to Lauren and Tessa and didn’t hesitate to throw myself at them and start crying. Neither of them even batted an eye and hugged me tight letting me cry.
When I’d stopped balling Lauren said, “Soooo, are you gonna tell us the reason your balling like a newborn baby.”
“Mood swings, it’s that time of the month and Erin said something that would never have offended me if I wasn’t horny as hell.” I stood there for a moment with a straight face for a total of three seconds before my friends and I were doubled over laughing.
“I’ll take that as a no then,” Tessa finished for Lauren.
“Yep, pretty much,” I replied. Then changing the subject I asked, “So, what do your guys’ dresses look like?”
