THE LIFE OF A TEENAGE VAMPIRE by Veronica Gibson (philippa perry book .txt) 📖

So I just stood there and listened

            “You’re supposed to love me, we were supposed to be together forever. Now you tell me that I’m  not the one for you, that there is someone else.” She screeched, then she stopped as the realization of something sank in

            “Its her isn’t it” she said tentivly with big tear filled eyes             “it’s the new girl isn’t it.” She finished  and her voice was rising again “Well, im gonna show you just how pathetic she is, thinking she can come here and take my man.” She yelled and spun around stopping when her eyes landed on me “you.” She said accusingly. I looked down at myself and back up at her

            “Well, from the looks of it, yea its me, what of it,” I said sarcastically

            “What are you doing here.” She asked crossing her arms across her chest

            “Well, I was looking for my mentor, because he was late for class,” I started “but when I went to his room and didn’t find him there, I was going to ask the head mistress if she knew where he was but I stopped by my room, and on my way out I heard a crash so investigated. “I informed her

            “Well, you can take your snoopy ass and leave me and MY boyfriend to OUR private business.” She sneered

            “Well from the looks of it he’s no ones boyfriend.” I said calmly knowing it would get to her and boy was I right, she stepped  forward and swung at me. I caught her fist easily and leaned forward.

            “You really shouldn’t have done that, you have no idea who you are messing with.” I whispered. “Now if you’re done verbally abusing MY mentor I would like to have class, good bye.” I said giving her fist a shove, sending her stumbling back about a foot

            “You’re a major bitch, you know that.” She hissed as Dimitri left the room. I looked at her for a minute

            “Yea,” I said as I watched her sink to the floor as she realized she had lost. I then turned and walked out the door.

                        “Well, that was interesting.” I declared as I caught up with Dimitri. “So what was that about.” I asked

            “She believes that her and I were destined to be together, so when I decided to move on, I went to her and tried to explain to her that there was nothing wrong with her that I was in love with someone else.” He informed me

            “Well, that didn’t go as well as planned huh.” I said

            “I kinda expected her to get mad, never expected her to throw a tantrum thought.” He said stopping outside the gym door to look at me.

            “So what did she break.” I asked

            “A couple lamps.” He said looking at me in the eyes with such intensity I was drowning in it. It was then I realized he was leaning in to kiss me, our lips only a whisper of air away.

           “Oh, good you’re here.” Came a voice all to familiar to me, Dimitri and I jumped away from each other. I sighed

            “What do you want Kriss?” I asked a bit annoyed

            “Well I wanted to talk to Mr. Stevenson about extra help, but if I’m interfering with other plans I’ll just go.” He said with an evil grin.

            “No, I was fixing to start training with Miss. Charleston you are welcome to join us.” Dimitri said smoothly. He led the way through the door, with Kriss on his heels. Before Kriss slipped through the door he turned and winked at me before holding it open for me, I sulked into the gym—which only made Kriss grin even bigger—I flipped him the bird on my way past him.

            I got back to my dorm in a foul mood, I dropped down on my bed face first only to hear a knock on my door

            “Hey can I talk to you?” the person questioned

            “No, now go away before I rip our head off” I said into a pillow

            “Sorry, no can do, now you can come let me in or I’m gonna let myself in,” he persisted. I sighed and pushed myself off the bed and opened the door, and was really tempted to hit him in the face.

            “What do you want Kriss?” I questioned bitterly

            “To do this.” He said grabbing my face to kiss me. He let me go and I just stood there shocked. He chuckled and turned and walked away. I, on the other had, stood there like an idiot until I realized that I was being stared at by some other girl on the hall, I quickly shut my door, and sat down on my bed. WHAT JUST HAPPENED. I questioned myself.  I suddenly stood up and headed to my brothers room. When I got there I walked in not bothering to knock.

            “Is Kriss here?” I asked Tommy as he came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his hips.

            “No, he said something about going to the gardens though, you might find him there, Why?” he said turning to look at me “Oh, ever heard of knocking, I could have been naked” he said with a smile

            “Nothing I’ve never seen before, and honestly I don’t care, you’re my brother.” I said smiling at him, I sat down on his bed and noticed the outfit lying out on it “What’s with the get up, hot date tonight,” I questioned teasingly

            “Well, yes.” He confessed, blushing slightly

            “Do I know her,” I asked

            “No, but she wants to meet you, I told her I would try and talk you into coming to the club with us this weekend.” He said

            “I would love to escort my LITTLE brother to the club, beside you’re underage anyway.” I teased

            “Hahaha.” He sneered, “Okay, out I got to change,” he said shooing me out the door.

After we went our separate ways I made my way to the huge gardens on the outside premises of the school. I walked around for a while till I spotted him.

            “What don’t have a hot date tonight,” I said as I came up behind him

            “No, not all of us are your brother,” he joked right back

            “So why are you hiding out, out here?” I questioned

            “Well, it’s better than being disgusted by your brothers lovie dovie stuff.” He said turning to look at me

            “True,” I said looking out toward the school through the trees

            “Why are you out here, you have your own dorm to hide in.” he questioned me suddenly

            “I came looking for you,” I admitted, blushing slightly

            “Really, why,” he pried

            “Well, what happened earlier made me rethink some things, and I realized I enjoyed it way to much, and I wouldn’t mind doing it again, as long as you don’t get all cocky.” I said unable to look at him

            “What about Stevenson, looks like you two were all hot and heavy,” he said

            “What about him, he’s my mentor,” I said looking at him this time.

            “Wouldn’t want to hurt his feelings now would we.” He said

            “Look there is nothing going on between me and him, and if your gonna be a dick about everything you can just forget I said anything.” I hiss in his face and walked away

            “Wait, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t of said that, its just when I saw you two earlier I was jealous, if I couldn’t have you then I didn’t think anyone else should and I know that its not fair of me to think that but I couldn’t help it.” He confessed looking at the ground

            “Its okay, I overreact to things, bad personal trait.” I told him “Look I got to go I’ll… see you later.” I said though it sounded more like a question

            “Sounds like a date.” He said looking up at me, he winked and then walked away. I got back to my room and went straight to my desk to check my email, I had one from my mom

            NICOLE,

                        HOW’S CLASSES GOING, I KNOW IT HAS ONLY BEEN A COUPLE OF WEEKS BUT I MISS YOU ALL SO MUCH, JILL HAS STARTED CRAWLING, AND PULLING UP ON THINGS, I WILL SEND YOU, TOMMY AND, OF COURSE, LUCY LOTS OF PICTURES, YOUR FATHER SAID HELLO.

I sent the email and went to find Lucy,

            “Hey, Luce, did you get your email from mom,” I asked

            “Yea, and here are your copy of the pictures she sent,” she said handing me an envelope. I pulled the pictures out to look at them, it was my niece Jill playing in the sandbox with another little boy.

            “Who’s the little boy,” I asked her

            “That’s Macy’s little one, you know the next door neighbor.” She responded

            “Oh that’s right, I’m gonna go show these to Tommy, or does he have copies of his own,” I asked her

            “Yea, here can you get them to him for me.” She asked looking distracted

            “Yea, hey are you okay,” I asked

            “Yea, it’s just, I miss her so much,” she said as a tear escaped her eye

            “I know, it will be okay, visitation is in just a few weeks you’ll see her then.” I informed her patting her shoulder to comfort her

            “Yea, I will wont I,” she said “See ya, Nicole I have class to get to.” She said as she hurried off

Chapter Three

“So how was your date yesterday,” I asked Tommy the next day

            “Great, what about yours, did you find him,” he joked right back

            “Yes, I found him and no it was not a date, technically.” I proclaimed

            “Ha-ha, well when I got back to the dorm last night he was all hyped up about something I can only assume it was you,” he told me “you know, he really does like you, a lot, he’s always asking questions about you, I was tempted to tell you myself if he didn’t shut up about it,” he said seriously

            “ I can see that he does, “ I said looking at the table

            “So do I need to add another guest to Saturday nights party,” he questioned bumping my shoulder with his

            “I don’t know I’ll have to ask him if he wants to go, I’ll let you know okay,” I said thinking about it, “oh Tommy, here these are pictures mom sent over here of the three of them and the next door neighbors little boy, “ I said handing him the envelope of pictures
