My Forbidden Vampire Romance (ON HOLD)

The truth comes out.

Devon's POV
        

        I wait nervously by the fountain waiting for her arrival. I know she's coming because she decided to join in on my game of writing letters. I retreated from the hall and then waited like I always do in a small crevice in the wall by the elevators. She almost caught me before when she chased me but luckily I made it to my hide out before she caught up. I heard her taking on the phone and then a few minutes later I heard something the door open and close. When I didn't hear any footsteps, I peeked my head around the corner. A small pink envelope was lying on the ground. 

        I pick it up and flip it over in my hands a few times pondering whether or not I should open it. I finally decide to open and carefully slide up the flap. I pull out a small slip of white paper bearing only one word in perfect handwriting: yes. 

Taylor's POV

        As I'm preparing for my date tonight- if you can even call it that- thoughts race through my mind of all the possible scenarios. Angelina and Katie have agreed to follow me and wait in hiding if anything goes wrong. I decide to wear jeans a t-shirt and tennis shoes in case I have to make a run for it. I also tie my hair up in a ponytail and decide against any makeup. I hear a knock on my door and it opens to reveal Katie and Angelina. 

        "Hey are you ready?" Katie asks.

        "Are you still absolutely sure you want to go? I still don't have a good feeling about it..." Angelina looks away from my gaze and I notice she's carrying a purse which she never does.

        "Yes, I'm sure. And what's in the bag?" My eyes travel to the bag as she moves it out of my site.

        "Oh you know... makeup, a brush, my phone, chapstick..." She trails off because she never carries any of those things except for her phone.

        "Just tell me what's in the bag."

        "I did!" She starts getting defensive. I stare at her for a minute and she finally realizes I know she's not telling the truth.

        Her hand reaches slowly to her bag as if she's still unsure of whether or not she should show me. I watch her hand disappear into her bag and hesitate then emerge with a gun. I look at her in shock as she hurries to explain.

        "It's just in case he tries to hurt you or anything! I swear I wouldn't have brought it if I thought we shouldn't be careful. I just nod and without a word we start down the elevators to the stairs. I look at my phone and realize it's 5:45 and we'll be late if we don't hurry. 

~~~~~~

      I arrive at the fountain alone because Angelina and Katie took a different route to get to there hiding places. I look at my phone again and it's exactly 6:00. No one has I arrived yet and I take a seat on the fountain. My eyes close and minutes later  I hear footsteps coming towards me. I look up and I see the guy from my first period class. What is he doing here? I don't remember his name for a second and then I remember him giving a speech of some sort one day. His name was Derek? Darren? Dev- dev... Oh Devon! I look over and realize he sat down beside me. He speaks up first.

        "Hey Taylor."

        "Your name's Devon..." I say lamely. He obviously doesn't follow my train of thought because laughing quietly he says:  "Yeah... it is..." 

        "I mean... um... Oh gosh..."

        He just looks at me amused and I realize I'm just staring.

        "I meant that you're the guy from first period and all this time I had no idea who you were. I was excited about meeting you here tonight so I could finally find out who was writing all those letters."

        He looks at me and smiles. "So did you like them?"

        "Yeah I did actually. They were really sweet." I smile at him and when he smiles back I blush slightly. 

~~~~~

        We spend the rest of the night talking about our favorite bands, foods, hobbies and by the end of the night I'm falling for him. We stand up and I tell him that I should probably get back to my dorm. 

        "Would you be interested in going out again?" He looks down at his shoes when he asks the question.

        "That'd be great." I was blushing profusely. 

        "Can I take you to a movie next Friday?" 

        "Let me see your phone real quick so I can put my number in." I held my hand out expectantly while he looked shocked that he was about to get my number. He handed me his phone and I quickly typed my number in, putting a smiley face by my name.

        "I'll see you later okay, Devon?"

        "Yeah, um... I need to tell you something first..." He looked nervously at his hands. 

        "What's wrong, Devon?" 

        "Well....um....I just..."
