Vampire Academy

chapter 5

"So what may be of your name?" She asked as soon as I was done settling in. "Sky" I answered.
She hummed. "That's a really neat name. Its not to complicated or to prosaic, but just natural and well...Sky" she commented, her face holding a gentle smile.

I looked at the girl with a puzzled look.
Her black/brown eyes stared back at me big, wide, and constantly dilated.

Her perfect posture radiated elegance, yet she appeared a bit too stiff,  a bit too still almost quit as if she weren't breathing.

"Oh I almost forgot. Here, Mrs. Miller told me to give this to you" she stated retrieving some clothes  from a drawer and handing it to me.
    I gave her a look before telling her that I'd prefer not to wear her handy down clothing.  "No silly, this is your uniform" she giggled placing them in my hands.

I looked down at the ugly plaid skirt and button up shirt with a little folded tie.
What the actual hell?

"You don't like it? Its a new brand , we just upgraded" she explained looking over the very exact uniform she was wearing, something I was just taking notice to.

I chuckled under my breath.
They can go to hell with this because I'll never wear it.
"I think I'll pass" I said chucking the clothes somewhere on the floor before crossing my arms together.

"Well you have to wear it besides, its against the rules if you don't" she informed politely bringing the clothes in my hands once more.

"You act like they'd kill us or something"I muttered seemingly bored.
The girl gave me a confused look then she fixed the collar of her top.

"Do whatever you want. But let me tell you, the last time I pulled a stunt like that, I didn't get to feed for two whole weeks" She said.

My eyebrows connected in confusion, somehow gaining her attention. "What's wrong?" She asked with a look of concern. "What do you mean by feed?" I retorted slightly biting my bottom lip.

"Drink, they didn't let me drink. They left me thirsty" she frowned looking me dead in the eye.
My face scrunched up.
"So dehydration is a sort of punishment here. Paradise"

The girl nodded in agreement.
"That's just how it is here" she professed, her big eyes focused on me.

I never shared a room with anyone in my life and I didn't really know exactly how this would work.

This girl seemed like a talker. But one thing for sure she was intrigued, intrigued by me. She just wouldn't stop staring, so I stared back trying to appear intimidating.

      "So I'll assume your changing your mind about wearing that uniform huh ?" She asked with a lifted eyebrow.

     "Fuck this uniform and fuck this school" I rolled my eyes aggravatingly.

      The girl looked me up in down ,eyes wide and in bewilderment.
Her pale pink lips parted slightly.

"Your a feisty one aren't you? I wonder where they railed you in from" she mumbled.

Before I could respond a loud alarming bell blared through the speakers.

"Good riddens we better go before we're late" the pale girl spoke shuffling through her stuff to retrieve a neat looking back pack that in all honesty looked to be made in the 18century by queen Elizabeth herself.
