Vampire Academy

chapter 7

     It was 7:00pm , and I was laying in my dorm listening to Lilly ramble on about some supposed dance that would accrue Friday night . I was completely uninterested.

I was still thinking about earlier today. I couldn't believe that my parents had booked me two months ago.  The betrayal ran deep in my veins.

Dazed in my fogged mind I didn't hear when Lilly asked if I would go or not. "Well!?!" She said agitated
"Well" I mocked with a smirk.

She shook her head completely giving up on me.
Hey what can I say I have that special affect on people.

She looked as though she would say more but instead pressed her lips firmly together in a dull line.

The room was starting to get stuffy and I was beginning to feel claustrophobic. I needed to get out of here to get some fresh air and some new scenery or I would completely lose my mind.

I glazed my hands down my thighs as I got up from the twin bed and started for the door.

"Hey! Where are you going" Lilly protested taking a look up from the book in which she was drilled in.

I sighed turning to her.
"You don't seriously think I'm going to stay cooped up in here all night do you?" I asked.

"I believe I asked where you were going not weather you wanted to stay or not" she retorted using the same tone in which I had.

"Just somewhere, it doesn't matter. I just need to get away from here" I said throwing on my black hoodie and leaving immediately not caring what else she had to say because I didn't care.

After a while of walking aimlessly down the hallways I found an empty room,went inside and shut the door behind me. When I was completely sure that I was one hundred percent alone, I pulled out my pack of menthols, grabbed a cig and my lighter and glazed it in flame.

I wasn't a heavy smoker, so when I did smoke it either meant that I was super stressed or just tired of someone's bullshit. It was like a Narnia door out of my sad excuse for an existence.

God why do I sound so depressing. I was only a few puffs in when the abrupt patter of footsteps echoed throughout the hall.
I froze instinctively burning out the cigarette by scraping it against the bottom soul of my converse shoe.

I was hoping, no, praying that there were no teachers or administrators cruising the hallways. The sound of footsteps became heavier and sounded much closer than they previously did. I instantly dashed behind a desk in the small room hoping to the Lord Jesus that my presence wouldn't be discovered.

With my luck though, the group of people came right into the room. The voices were much clearer now and recklessly loud.

But there was something different about these voices I've heard these voices before. And then it suddenly came to me like someone had clicked on the light switch.

It was the group I sat with at lunch. That deep voice was undeniably Noah's, and I can even make out Brandon's voice along with Tiffany's.

As much as I wanted to get from underneath the desk, it would've just been weird for them just coming into a room and seeing a girl climb up from under a desk I know that would be weird for me so the reaction would be mutual.
But the real question was what were they doing here.

"Tonight's going to be so delicious I can taste it, I can't wait to get some real blood into my system" I heard Meredith say in a sneaky tone.
She sounded up to no good.

"I'm about sick and tired of the schools sad sad excuse for plasmatic gore" Noah added.
What the fuck are they talking about?
It wasn't a rare accession were I was not confused so this really struck out for me.

"You think we should of invited your new girlfriend ?" One of the twins, Matt I believe said although I can particularly tell,  they were just that identically similar.  A part of me also wondered who they they talking about?

"What girlfriend?!?" Noah asked, and I could picture him looking baffled.
"Um, what's her face. Oh yea that's right Skyyyy" Meredith remarked making sure to stretch out my name.

I rolled my eyes but couldn't deny the smirk that creeped it's way upon my face.
"From the looks of it , that girl needs a little blood in her system. She's so tan " One of them cackled.
What the hell.... Shouldn't it be the other way around.
I wanted to listen further but I longed for them to leave so I could switch from this horrid position.

"It always takes a newborn a while to pale up so cut her some slack" Tiffany defended. Safe to say I was still confused. "I'd gladly fuck the hell out of her until she turns pale" Brandon's voice echoed.

My mouth slanted opened as my head raised up instantly connecting with the desk causing a loud 'bang'.
"Fuck I muttered under my breathe as a lightning bolt of pain seared through my brain.

The pairs of feet immediately reacted taking big steps backward. "Dude what the hell was that?"
Deciding to just come out now and save myself from further embarrassment , I simply stood up from underneath the desk looking them striaght in the eye.

They all looked back with wide eyes. Especially Brandon who looked more
Flustered than the rest.
After all he did make that rather perverted comment.

"Oh my goodness Sky what the hell are you doing here?" Noah stampered . "I, I, um. Needed to um . You see I had this ah,I. don't. know" I gave up, my composure slightly slouching .

"So I can assume you heard us talking correct?" Meredith stated. "Correct"I responded taking a quick glance towards Brandon.
"-And are you going to tell?" Noah finished. I froze.

  "Why would I?"
  "You tell us" Meredith projected.
I bit my lip a small smile forming on my lips.

    "Maybe if I join, I won't accidentally blubber some things to Mr. Hensmen" I smirked feeling in control.

   Were ever they were going I wanted to go to. Besides I could use a little fresh air and sneaking around.
They looked to be thinking , contemplating whether or not to take me up on my table turning offer.

     "Fine" Noah said sending over a wink whilst Meredith scowled. I smirked in victory.
"So fuck me till I'm pale right" I mocked. Everyone laughed everyone but
Brandon. "I was joking ok" he muttered.
