I can't help it

●~chapter 12~●

Julian's Pov only for a little bit

It might sound crazy but me finding out that Michael's a Vampire made me love him so much more. Don't get me wrong. I've liked him for a while now, but this just made it so much more to love him because he's finally not hiding something from me. It must've been hard to keep it from me and other people, Like were Roommates so it most've been harder with me cause he could hide it from people outside but I'm his Roommates, I live with him. Wait, how is Melanie? I'm keeping this from Amy and Ashley. I think they might have to tell those two cause I know they wouldn't shut Melanie out. Well, I hope cause that would be the worst. I slowly woke up realizing it was Friday, and I was currently on top of Michael. Wait, I'M ON TOP OF MICHAEL. I eyes widen while realizing I literally fell asleep on Michael, and he's playing with my hair. I wanted to scream in excitement, but I kept myself from doing so because Michaels eyes were on me. I slowly got up and started to change, but Michael was still lying on the bed. Grinning. When I was done He did his vampire speed to get the clothes he wanted and went into the bathroom. He zoomed back out and quickly put on His shoes. I got my shoes out of my closet and sat them on the floor. I was about to put them on my foot, but with his vampire speed again, put it on and laced it up for me. Well, I guess that's much easier. When he was finished, we still had an hour until class started, so we decided against going to breakfast and instead waited until the bell rang. Michael decided to take the time to read, and I decided I wanted to read with him as always.

Michaels Pov

I sat down on Julian's bed and opened up my arms so Julian could sit with me and read. He climbed in with me but decided to get even closer by sitting in between my legs with his head on my chest, but thankfully, his head was turned so he could read. I was focused by the fact that Julian was literally on top of me and didn't realize the time. We had only a few minutes before class started, That's what it said on my phone, so I stood up after Julian got off me, and we quickly walked over to our class. We eventually heard the first bell and got there before anyone and sat down. The teacher came in and started her class, and I didn't turn my head once over to Julian cause I was still thinking about that moment. I didn't listen to what the teacher said and only started to focus when Julian shook me because I was quiet for too long. I looked at the board and instantly started writing notes when I realized I was behind. Frick. That's not good. Somehow, my notes were still Neat. Then Julian passed me a note and I read it. I wanna skip so bad that this is so boringggg. I giggled when I read it but just went back to my notes. I then wrote on the paper to give him an answer. After Biology, we can get ice cream, K? I gave him the paper, and he wrote an answer and passed it back to me. Can vampires eat ice cream? What a weird answer. Yes, we can. I'll just pour some plasma juice on it, so don't worry. I passed him the paper, and He made a phew sound. He ruffled up the paper and went to the front of the class to throw it away and quickly went back to his seat. I nudged him so he could come closer. I whispered something funny in his ear and almost got caught laughing from the teacher, but the bell rang before she could see anything. I packed up my bags and waited for him to do the same. We were walking to our next class. "Dude, where did you learn that joke, bro?" I thought for a moment. "Nelson, I think." He nodded. "Makes sense." We continued walking to our next class which was which was Math, my absolute favorite. "So, what happens when you see blood?" He whispered to me, and I instantly tensed up. "Nothing cause I'm unfazed by it because I've learned to get over the smell..." I said, looking away and to the front. I wasn't lying, but I made a promise to Melanie to never ever drink blood, and she made a promise to do the same. I sat down and the teacher started her class. Math was so much fun the teacher gave us a paper that I finished fairly quickly and when I came back to my seat I realized I was the only one done with the paper. I quietly tried to help Julian, and our teacher said she had to go get something and told us to stay quiet while she's away. I turned my full attention to Julian while everyone started talking to their partners, and Ashley turned to us. "Hey Julian, are you ok? Michael told us you had a cold or a fever, Are you sure you ok now?" He nodded and tried his best with his work. The teacher eventually came back, and everyone instantly went quiet. She came back with a coffee. Understandable, I mean like Imagine having to teach teenagers, Must be hard. Julian eventually finished his work shortly before the bell rung and seeing the time I started packing. He rushed to pack his stuff away. The day went by super slowly. It's a bit too slow for my liking. Me and Julian decided to stop by our dorm to grab some money for ice cream. I decided I wanted to pay this time, which wasn't a problem cause my mom absolutely spoils me and my sister. I went over to the cafeteria where everyone was sitting with their friends and talking, but I was only there to grab some plasma juice and pour it into my water bottle. I was quick with it. We walked over to the gates, and the guards let us through cause they were always there. I saw a few people packing their stuff and putting it into their parents' car. We went to the ice cream shop, and holy smokes, this has a lot of flavors. I decided to take mixed berry and..... wait..... Is that strawberry.... out of all the human ice cream flavors that my favorite. I decided to take mixed berry and strawberry. Julian took chocolate and vanilla, I paid for both ice creams, and we sat outside. I sat down and poured some plasma on it. When I took a bit, it was really good. I felt eyes on me when I took a bite. I looked at Julian, and he was smiling while looking at me. "What is it? is there strawberry on my face or something?" He shook his head. "I just happy cause I can be friends with a vampire... I feel lucky cause as a kid I had an imaginary friend who I imagined as a vampire... If you told me now that you're imaginary or something, I would've believed you." I chuckled. Cute. "Well, to answer your question, no, I'm not imaginary, so don't even ask." His smile widened. "wasn't going to.." I continued to eat, and so did He. I threw away the Napkin, and we walked back to the school but was stopped when I heard a voice. "You kids go to that school, right? be careful, I heard kids are being murdered." The woman said while turning back to her husband. Friend. Boyfriend. I don't know. We walked back to our school and went back to our dorm. I went to get comfortable, which was really this new routine. Take off my contacts and put my hair in a bun. I got into pajamas and took my book to read on Julian's book again. Julian sat with me after getting ready himself but didn't cuddle what so ever. "So football practice is on Monday so I won't really have much time as I used to.." I smiled and looked at him from my book. "That's good, also don't worry about me. I can come to your practice when I'm done with homework." This place was quite big so the football stadium or whatever you call it was next to the school just in walking meter. "What about your art activity when are you gonna start?" I I looked back to my book. "In the second half year..." Julian gestured for me to stand up. I did as he said with my book, and he sat down. He patted a seat next to him, and I sat back down. When I did, he put his arms around my waist and shifted me, so we were in that position that we were in this morning, but now he's me, and I'm him. I blushed madly but followed soot. He took the book for me, and I finally could just relax. He then put the book aside from him and started opening my hair. I don't really like the idea of people messing with my hair. I put my hand up so he couldn't do anything with it. "The hell are you doing??" I asked, and he just smirked. "Please, I promise I won't ruin it." I sighed "fine just please don't ruin it.." He start playing with my hair. "Can vampires sleep but like not need energy, or can you physically not capable of sleeping." I looked from the ceiling to his eyes. "We can close our eyes and pretend to sleep, but we can't sleep." He nodded. "I thought you were some kind of vampire expert?" I said while giggling.

"Well, in fiction, not in real life. Obviously, we humans don't actually know how vampires work, so we just create some random things that make sense." I nodded in understanding. "You guys also sometimes make terrible vampire love stories.." I said while closing my eyes. "Yeah, I get what you mean." We cuddled for hours and got so much closer. I wasn't on top of him and turned my chest to the bed. My hand was around his shoulder and making a hook shape. His arms around my waist and our faces are not so far from each other. I was looking at his features.

I played with his hair and heard my phone chime, so I took it from beside me. I saw a notification from Melanie, I swiped left and opened the notification and saw a picture of her, Amy, and Ashley at the ice cream shop like we were. I smiled and gave her a heart emoji as a way of being proud that we made some good friends. At the end of each half year there's a party or a dance. Right now, it was around the start of march. On valentines Day, I decided to go with Julian cause we were close, and why not.

If you're asking about drunk vampires. Just know that yes, we can get drunk, but it takes longer for us to get drunk. I shifted a bit to put my phone beside me, when I shifted back, his grip tightened and I was a few inches way from his face, scratch that I was a few inches away from his lips. I wanted to kiss them and had an urge but decided against it cause I know what it's like for people to kiss you without your permission. I would never be able to forgive myself if I even tried.
