Beauty & the Bloodsucker

Chapter 19

After the whole dilemma with the spiders, Brick muttered something about a meeting with someone before shoving me back in the bedroom, locking the door. I thought we were over the whole locking me in rooms but then again I'm still not trust worthy. I was okay with that, they may not trust me but I have less eyes on me then before. Since they made a habit of locking me in, I practiced unlocking the door with bobby pins. Let's just say I got really good. Professional good. Okay, I know I'm being cocky.

I have to get myself escape routes through out the whole house. I didn't care if this was freaking heaven, they took me from my home with out MY permission. I was going to get out of here.

Time passed as I explored the whole house. It was so big, I never knew if I was going in circles or not. I started using the sharpest end of the bobby pin to carve symbols, so I'd know where I was and where I've been. As soon as I saw it start to get dark outside, I knew I had to get back to the room before Brick showed up, if he hasn't already. When I got into the room, it was empty, no sign of Brick or anyone else. I sighed in relief closing the door, using the bobby pin to lock it back up. I hid the bobby pin, if Brick or anyone else saw it they'd  know I used it to unlock the door and I would have no chance to escape.

Later that night I went to bed with Brick, no fighting like I promised. It actually felt nice, not having to use what little energy I had left to get rid of him only to lose every single time.

The dream I had was a little strange... Okay, you caught me, super strange. Brick, along with everyone I've met while I've been with him have been either vampires or some other kind of monster. It was horrifying and through out the whole thing, I pretty much had a heart attack.

When I woke up, Brick was gone and terror shivered down my back leaving a trail of goosebumps. It was still dark outside. I pulled the blanket to my chin, practically wrapping myself like a burrito. Something was off but I was to freaked out to get out of bed. After about an hour passed, I finally gathered barely enough courage to get out of the bed. The ground was cold and knees were shaking from fear and the cold. I rubbed my arms, trying to create any possible body heat but it didn't work very well.

I went to open the door but it was locked, of course. I grabbed the bobby pin, shimming it around till I got the door open. After, I made my way to the staircase, hearing voices. They were muffled and the only way I'd be able to hear them is if I got closer. I know doing this, I was most likely going to get caught but me being the curious person I am, I did it anyway.

I did my best to be quiet, following the sound of the voices. It brought me to the kitchen. I peeked in seeing Butch, Boomer, Brick, Ace and Sudusa.

"So how did you and little red meet anyways?" Butch asked Ace, going over to the fridge.

"If I didn't tell Blossom, why would I tell you Butch?" Ace snapped, he was still a major ass.

This seemed to piss Butch because he pulled away from the fridge, not opening it, "Because maybe I actually know you."

"Technically Blossom knows me too." Ace sassed.

Butch growled before going to the fridge opening it up. My eyes grew and a gasp left my lips at what I saw inside. I'm officially screwed.
