Love Bite

Chapter 6: Boxes and Dishes

When we got home, most of us went up to our rooms, Griffin and Seth stayed downstairs watching T.V. I went to my room, once getting there, noticing how much more clean and usable it looked. Plus all of my stuff was here, still in boxes of course.

The dusty room was now pretty and nice, elegant is a word I would use at first look. The loveseat no longer had the dusty white sheet over it, turns out it was a really nice red coloured fabric, with dark coloured wood framing it. There was also a vanity next to the seat, that was slightly distressed, but it made it look better. The mirror was freshly cleaned, I could slightly smell a lemony citrus smell around me.

The canopy bed now had actual fabric hanging from the top, and I wonder when they had time to do this, and also wonder how they got in. I suppose they have a key to all the houses, it makes sense but it is still a little scary to know they could get in whenever, but y'know, I am already in a pretty scary position by living here, it couldn't get much worse.

But it could, but I doubt it will.

I walk over to one of my larger boxes, opening it and revealing all my clothes that I brought with me, dresses hanging and other clothes in the bottom of the box. I check the wardrobe that stands in the back of the room, its clean, thats good. I start to fill it with my dresses and jackets, then put my other clothes in the dresser.

I look at one of my other boxes and wonder how I am going to manage to get everything everywhere, it's a bigger room, but I have less shelving. I manage to put my laptop and my small makeup bag on the vanity, along with a few trinkets, then put some small boxes of things underneath, with my larger makeup kit, and put more trinkets on my chest of drawers, and more on each side of the bed on bedside tables.

I still have a few left but for the time being it looked fine, I had a couple tissue boxes in the room and I set up my lamp on my vanity, there already being two very nice lamps on my bedside tables. I set up my alarm clock on my side of the bed that I usually sleep on, but don't really know what time we get up so I can't really set the alarm. I manage to stick up my fairy lights above my bed and above my vanity. The ones on my vanity going above it and drop down, and also setting up smaller ones to frame the mirror etc.

I set up my hooks that just hang from the top of my door and throw a warm dressing gown like cardigan and one of my usual jumpers on them. The room starts to look a lot more like my room and more lived in and homely by the time someone knocks on my door at 6.

I don't even get the chance to say to come in because the moment after they knock, they come inside. I look to see Carden standing at my door, glancing around.

"Dinners ready, and just by the way, dinner is always at six" he tells me and walks out, displeased with my room.

I just glare at his back for as long as I can before catching up and getting downstairs to sit once again next to Xavier. The food set out in front of me looks delicious, but I wonder if it is comsidering a vampire made it. Do they have the same type of tastebuds as us? Meaning they can tell what is scrumptious for a human?

I grab a piece of garlic bread to start off and pour myself some water, scanning my plate and seeing that whoever made dinner has cooked us lasagna and someone already dished it out.

The table stays quiet for quite a while and I discover that the food is really delicious like it looked. I look around at the people who I have to share most meals and a house with for the rest of highschool and try to figure out exactly how I am going to get along with them. Will Damien open up more and be less rigid and more friendly and relaxed? And will Seth become my new best vampire friend? Because he's the only nice and friendly fun one. Will Xavier ever talk again? Is he really as cute as he seems? Will Griffin stop looking at me like a piece of meat? Will-
