Chapter 3.5-It's Complicated

Authors note-
This is a mini chapter. Enjoy!

(*THIS CHAPTER IS PREFERABLY FROM CRIMSON'S VEIW OF THE PAST SIX WEEKS AT VANTELIPA. SHE WILL SUMMARIZE AND SHARE HER THOUGHTS ON THE ODD EVENTS THAT HAVE LATELY OCCURRED...*)

It's been six weeks since I enrolled at Vantelipa. Things have calmed down, except for the occasional getting deep gashes and random fires starting right by me...but I'm still not convinced that the amulet is cursed! I've been getting these weird hallucinations lately. Alexander is pissed at me for it. At night, I imagine the lady who kidnapped Eitiene standing before the foot of my bed. She wears the same blood stained, willowy dress and has the same dark, cultivating hair. It scares me. It happens every other night or so. Also, the amulet chain seems to get smaller each day. Selene told me it would end up choking me, but I don't believe her. I'm just hallucinating.

I've been mad at Aleister for the past two weeks. He tried touching my boobs and that crossed my line big time. I've been giving him the silent treatment.

Guess who else I've been giving the silent treatment? Yep-you guessed it.

Eitiene.

That son of a silver-haired skunk deserves it. I don't feel guilty saying that either, because apparently we have different mothers....

I haven't really been talking to Xaender a lot either, except for in Vampire History. Once you get to know him, he isn't as shy.

Selene has been creepy as usual, too. Recently, she's gotten very familiar and comfortable around me. It scares me. Just the other day, she showed me her skull collection. Skull collection. Oh, did I mention that she collects blood samples from literally everybody she meets? I know it sounds bizarre, and I wouldn't believe it either, but after she told me, she tried sampling my blood. I ran away like an ostrich running from a natural disaster. Overall, fast.

But, I get up everyday knowing that lunch will be delightful. Carson and I spend every lunch on the rooftop feeding each other. I know it sounds odd, but it's a habit from our youth. It's fun, too. He's like an older brother to me. I might even have feeling for him. But I have feelings for everyone else too. Aleister. Eitiene. Xaender. Carson. Alexander. I've gotten to know them all a lot over these past few months. It's been hilarious, and confusing the whole time. But now it's time for real business.

I might sound like a coo-koo saying this, but I think-I know someone is after me. I've been left life-threatening notes every day. I don't even know how the person who sends them to me finds these things out.

For example:

'Saw u feeding Carson 2day. Slut.'

(Excuse me, how does playfully feeding my best friend count me in as being a slut?)

'Aleister will dump u like every1 else. Be prepared, bitch.'

(What does he have to dump me from? It's not like we're in any sort of relationship.)

I figure people are jealous. But then there's one that scares me.

'Hello, darling. I'm pleased to make your acquaintance. How is my darling Crimson doing? I assure you that I will be able to meet you again soon. Very soon. Only then, will your true life as my servant begin.'

I mean-what the hell? I'm hoping this is a joke. But I don't really know. So that's what is sort of freaking me out at the moment.

One more thing.

Is the amulet supposed to glow everytime I see the woman at the foot of my bed?

If it's not, then I'm 101% sure that the woman is hunting me down.
