Forbidden Romance

Tiny Dancer

"Hold me closer tiny dancer

Count the headlights on the highway

Lay me down in sheets of linen

You had a busy day today"

(From Elton John's Hit Song "Tiny Dancer")

Spencer: 

        I walk along the bleachers at school and watch as the soccer team practices. I look and see Ashlee knock the ball out of the goal with such...grace. He's looks like a tiny dancer from where I'm standing. His feet just seem to glide along the field; like he wasn't even touching the ground. I watch as the sweat drips down his chest; seeing as how it was shirts and skins. 

        I soon hear footsteps behind me and see my friend Hunter Carrington coming up behind me. "Hey Spence.", he says with a smile. "Hey Hunter.", I say as he comes down next to me. "What are you doing?", he asks. "Just...walking around.", I tell him. "And watching the soccer team practice.", he says. "Are you...watching Crawford?", he asks, looking to where I was looking. I begin blushing and look down at my feet. 

        "You know you can't be with him.", he says. I look at him and nod. "And besides, I think he's already taken.", he coninutes, pointing towards the field. I look and see Ashlee kissing his girlfriend Ariana Morgan. "How long have they been together?", I ask. "A year today.", he answers. I nod and watch as they talk; smiles on both their faces. I then look closely and watch their lips as they speak. 

      "Did they just make plans to go out tonight?", I ask. "Yeah. But he should know not to go out tonight.", Hunter replies. "I'm sure he does, but I'm sure he'll be fine.", I say. "Why do you care? Don't your families still hate each other?", he asks. "Yeah. But...", I begin. "But nothing Spence. You shouldn't be concerend about him. His whole family has been and will be backstabbers. That's part of the feud of our entire species.", he tells me. 

        I nod and begin to walk back towards my car. Well, I guess the whole species thing kind of makes you curious; so I'm going to go on and say it. I'm a vampire. In fact, my whole family AND Hunter are vampires. And the whole reason that my family is in a feud with Ashlee's family, is because...he's a werewolf. Well, him and his family. And, we don't know why, but our familes have hated one another for centuries. But maybe, just maybe, he could be what stops it all. He's always been trying to talk to me, but I don't think I've ever listened until now.
