My Love Life with a Vampire (boyxboy)

CHAPTER 17

I woke up to an odd text from an old friend. Someone I hadn't talked to since middle school. Someone I hadn't thought about since middle school. I even forgot I had her phone number.

From Callie
Yo! I haven't heard from you in years! I'm moving to your city soon actually and you're the only friend I would have there sooooo, we should meet up!
...

I read over it a few times, thinking of how to reply. I didn't know how to really feel. It's not that I'm not excited, I'm just so used to not having many friends here. I like it that way, aside from Sebastian. I'm just used to spending time with Sebastian, my mom, and Goober. I don't know if I'd want anymore people in my life.

To Callie
Hi! That's so exciting! We really should meet up, babe. Do you know if you'd also go to my school?
...

Was the 'babe' too much? Maybe she'd suspect my gayness because of it. But it's not like that'd be a bad thing. I just don't know if she's homophobic or not. While my mind is flooded with these thoughts, I get a reply from her.

From Callie
Yea I think i'm gonna be at your school. I'm so excited to see you at school again lol
...

I nodded to myself and put my phone down to begin getting ready for school, ignoring Sebastian's goodmorning text in the process. It's hard to say why this bothers me so much, I guess Callie just gives off weird vibes. It probably doesn't matter though, it's just some weird feeling, I guess.

I tried ignoring the feeling all day, going to school and spending the time of my day how I usually do. But, once I got home, the feeling returned. It practically plagued my mind, and I had no idea why. I had no idea why I was so nervous about meeting Macey again. Just no idea.

The next day Callie had told me she would be at my school. I think I had calmed down about it since yesterday, or just came to terms with it. So I got ready for school, as slow as possible, and made it to school after Sebastian for the first time.

I got to my seat, looked around, and thanked whoever might be listening for her not being in my class. And that relief lasted about three minutes before the teacher had announced the arrival of a new student. And then there she came through the door, her hair done well, and her skirt as short as allowed. Of course, I started internally panicking, practically begging that she won't be sat by me. Thankfully, she sat across the room from me, but that still didn't solve the issue of lunch.

Yet, I still had no idea why I wanted to avoid her so much. It was also weird that I hadn't told Sebastian at all, so I had no idea what it'd look like at lunch. I suppose I'd have to leave it up to fate, and try not to make any eye contact until then.
