Twisted

Chapter 5

Monday came, and I was not ready for another week of school. I know it's only been two days of school and then the weekend but in those days I learned my best friend is a witch and two boys I have just met are Vampires. I also know I like both of those boys and maybe even one more than the other.

Once I got to school, Hannah came right to me. She seemed even more happy than usual. That is rare because she is already always happy. I asked her what's going on, but she wouldn't tell me anything. She walked me into our school gym. There were decorations in boxes and I realized what she had said the first day of school. "I'm helping with the school dance!" This was great, because I get to get out of all of my first through fourth period classes, just to set up for this stupid dance.

An hour later Zach walks in with two more full boxes of decorations. He walks straight towards Hannah and asks her where he should put them. She pointed to me, so he walked over and set the boxes by my feet.

"What are you doing here?" I asked out of curiosity.
"Helping set up." He said this as if I should have known.

He walked away to hang a banner that said "welcome to the 80's" on it. I followed him with a table cloth to put on the table beside it. I thought to myself a question I was very eager to ask.

"What's the question?" He asked as if he knew.
"I have two."
"Let's here them."
"Can vampires read minds? because you always seem to know what I'm thinking." I said the word vampires silently as I asked this question.
"No, but we can sense things easily" he said
"The second question is..." I was still trying to decide if I should ask this question. I thought. It couldn't hurt to ask.
"We're you alive in the 80's" I asked
"Yes. Jake and I were both." He said this while Jake walked up right beside me.

Jake being that close to me gave me the shivers. Not because I was scared of him but because we have a connection. I wondered if he was going to ask me to the dance. I realized not to long ago, that I liked Jake.

Zach left us alone, so Jake helped me put the table cloth on the table. I was scared if I should ask him or not. So I just decided not to.

The hours went by fast. Zach left the school, because he doesn't go here. I wonder why he doesn't go here? I wonder who Zach killed that made Jake so angry? I wonder if Jake will ask me to the dance? I was lost in my thoughts I didn't even realize Jake was waiting for me. I tend to do that a lot. Like on the first day of school.

"Are you coming?" He asked
"You go ahead. I have volleyball practice." I told him
"Okay. But can I ask you something first" Jake said this as if my answer would be no.
"Ya. Anything." I replied sounding desperate.
"Will you go to the dance with me?"
"Sure." I said... Kind of to excitedly.
