James' POV

Four days have passed since Sofia's 'little escape' with Nicholas. He's lucky he wasn't around when I arrived to rescue Sofia, because if he were, right now he would be fifty feet underground, just to make sure. You never know with dead supernatural creatures if they will stay buried. Strangely, his car was still there. Wait! That bloody fucking asshole. He's the one who was in the woods creeping on Sofia! I swear, when I see him I'm going to kill him. Well, as long as Sofia isn't around.

Today is Tuesday and right now Sofia is talking with Amanda, Jane and Natalie at the lockers about the 'Winter Ball'.

"Has anyone asked you yet?" Jane asked Sofia and she laughed.

"Jane, its November. I think that its a little to early don't you think? The only things guys here are thinking about right now are sex, videogames, making out and sex." Sofia replied laughing and I smiled.

Yes! No asshole has asked her yet. But I have to be quick. I can see almost every guy eye raping her right now. Including the ones that are so called 'gay'!!!

"Hi James!" A fucking high pitched voice said behind me and I squinted at it. Great. Just great. The bitch/whore came to make me deaf.

"Hello." I want to run away from her fucking annoying voice before I get a seizure. Usually, vampires don't get seizures, but with this girl's voice, ANYTHING is possible.

"Are you going to The Winter Ball?"

"No."

"No?"

"No."

"Why?"

"Its not my kind of scene."

"Really? I bet that I can change your mind."

"No, thanks, but no."

"Oh c'mon! We can go together. It'll be fun and I can assure you that if you go with me, you'll get a little bonus gift." She whispered in my ear the last part and I almost puked right here. I feel so bloody disgusted right now. Can't she get a hint?!

"Sorry, but I have family plans that day. We're going away somewhere for the weekend. Why don't you ask Mark. You'll have way more fun with him." I tired convincing her.

"You're right, but he's too focused on Sofia to even look at me. He's plotting right now a plan to get her to go with him. Maybe he'll blackmail her, though I wouldn't be surprised if he does so-hey! Where are you going?!" She yelled , but I didn't give a fuck that what I just did was rude. I have to get to her.

"...I was thinking blue with a little of silver and-Oh! Hi James!" Sofia's beautiful voice greeted me and I sighed in relief. She just repaired my ears!

"Hi Soph! Um, can we talk in private?" I asked her. She turned to look at her friends who nodded their heads with smirks on their faces.

"Go ahead. We can talk in lunch." Jane said and I grinned at her.

"You sure?" Sofia asked.

"Yeah. I believe that what he has to say is more important than our girl talk." Natalie said.

"Oh. Okay. I'll see you guys later. Bye!" Sofia bid goodbye to her friends. I grabbed her hand and she tensed a little, but relaxed a few seconds later. I led her towards the music classroom.

"What's up?" She asked after hopping on a table.

"Um...have you heard about a Winter Ball?"

Really James? You're so smooth that I'm speechless.

Shut up! You stupid conscious. Like if you would've done it better.

Oh yes I would.

(-_-)

"Uh, yeah. The girls and I were just talking about it. Why? Are you going?"

"I don't know. Are you going?"

"Yeah. I even have a costume in mind."

"Costume?" I asked confused.

"Yeah. This year for The Winter Ball, everyone assisting will have to be wearing a costume based on Jack Frost and or Frozen."

"Oh. Okay." I replied stupidly. I was too focused on her lips that I barely heard what she said.

"Okay." She said and hopped off the table ready to leave.

"WAIT!" I shouted.

"What's wrong?"

"Um...do...do you want to...um...go to The Winter Ball...with me?" There. Done. I asked her. Whoof. I feel a little lighter.

"Uh...y-yeah. Yes. I would like to go with you. Do you want to meet there or...?"

"I'll pick you up." I said a little too quickly and she blushed.

"O-okay then." She stuttered. "Um, the bell is about to ring. We probably should get going now if we don't want to be late." She mumbled and I snirked at her nervousness, I find it cute and adorable.

"Yeah. Sure." I replied and we went to class.

Once the last bell rang signaling that school was over for the day, I wasted no time in going to search for Sofia. She was walking towards Derek's car when I grabbed her arm and stopped her.

"Oh James! What's up?" Wow! Déjà vu right there.

"Um, can you come over to my house. I need help with my math."

Lamest excuse ever. That's the oldest trick in the book Romeo.

Shut the fuck up if you don't want me to beat your arse.

Seriously? Your going to beat yourself up? That would be a really entertain sight.

I. Hate. You.

I love you too!

"Sure! I'll let my brother and my parents know." She messaged them and we went to my car and hopped inside. I just hope that I don't screw up this afternoon.
