Sold to a Vampire

Chapter 9

9) We finally arrived at this club that we were going to meet the werewolves at. I stretched after I got out of the car. Damien held out his hand to me and I took his hand. If he's gonna be all nice now, then I might as well take advantage of it while it lasts. We followed in behind the others as we entered the club. Loud music was blaring while there was a sea of people dancing. I tightly grasped Damien's hand as we went through the crowd. We went to what looked like the V.I.P. section of the club. Lauren talked to the bouncer who stood there, and he looked at a clipboard then let us in. It was a lot less loud it the VIP area. There was about four ruggedly handsome guys and a few girls in here already. "Derek!" Lauren shouted and ran up to one of the guys who turned around. She hugged him and then brought him over to us. He kissed Sarah's cheek and then Lauren brought him over to me. He looked kinda shocked to see me but smiled as Lauren said,"Derek this is Rose. Rose this is Derek. He's my werewolf friend I told you about." I smiled at him and said, "It's nice to finally meet you." He grabbed my hand that Damien wasn't holding and kissed it. "Nice to meet you too. You are very beautiful." He said to me and I felt my cheeks turn a little pink when he said that. He then looked at my neck, then at my hand Damien was holding, then at Damien. They gave each other ominous glares at each other. I was confused as to why they'd do that. Once Derek went to catch up with Lauren and Sarah, I pulled Damien over to a little couch that was in there. We both sat down and that's when I said, "What was that about between you and Derek?" He looked at me and sighed. "I'll tell you later. I don't want to ruin this night for you." He told me and I just nodded. I trust him that he'll tell me. We sat there for a while until one of the werewolf guys came up to me and asked me to dance. I politely declined though. I didn't feel like dancing just yet and embarrassing myself in front of everyone just yet. I looked over at Damien and said, "Did you not wanna come here, Damien?" He looked at me and said, "Lets just say I don't really like werewolves." I had a feeling this had something to do with what he was going to tell me later. Sarah and Lauren then came over and each grabbed my hand and pulled me on the dance floor. I laughed as I danced with them. I probably looked really silly but I didn't really care since I was having so much fun. It felt like we were dancing for hours, some of the guys even danced with us for a song or two, but then a slow song came on and Lauren started dancing with Mark and Sarah danced with William. I walked off the dance floor and watched them dance from the side. Never thought I'd party with vampires and werewolves before I got kidnapped. As I sighed, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around and I saw Damien. "Do you wanna dance?" He asked me and held out his hand to me. I nodded and smiled as I grabbed his hand. He led me to the dance floor and then we faced each other. I blushed as he placed his hands on my waist and I put my hands on his shoulders. I never thought I'd see Damien dance, let alone slow dance. I wonder if he feels alright. Damien leaned in closer, and for a split second I thought he was going to kiss me, but he leaned in closer to my ear and was going to tell me something- since the music was pretty loud- and just before he was going to say something I felt myself being pulled away from Damien. The person who pulled me away was Derek. He looked pretty pissed off for some reason and Damien looked like he was about to kill Derek. "You better not do that around here, vampire." Derek said to him with venom in his voice. I some how figured out what Derek was talking about and I pulled my arm from his grasp and stood between him and Damien. "I'd like to see a fight as much as the next person, but this is all just a misunderstanding. Damien wasn't going to bite me. He isn't like those creepy old men that buy humans to have sex with them and feed from them.. Heck, I probably disgust him for all I know." I said to Derek. Before Derek could say anything, I felt someone grab my hand and they started pulling me out of the club. I noticed it was Damien who had grabbed my hand. He pulled me towards the car and opened the passenger side door for me. I got in and he slammed it shut and quickly got in on the driver's side. Now I did something to upset him. He left, leaving the others behind, and was speeding down the road as we sat in silence. I was looking out the window watching the scenery go by when Damien cut the silence between us. "Why do you think I find you disgusting?" He asked me and I was kinda shocked he was upset about this. I glanced down to my lap as I said, "The day when I almost started a frenzy at the school because of the cut I got, Sarah and Lauren told me about how you hated humans before I got here and asked me what did I do to make you so nice to me." He looked at me quickly and then looked back at the road. "You really think I'd find you disgusting though?? I spend like almost every second of every day with you since we've met, I even share a freaking bed with you. You hang out with my friends and I like that you get along with them. After what happened yesterday, do you really think I'd find you disgusting and that I'd let you do that if I did?" He said to me, which caused me to look at his profile and I can tell he was being honest. "But why change your views because of me though? Your dad basically forced you to keep me at your side24/7." I retorted back. He sighed and said, "Spending all this time with you made me realize that humans aren't so bad. Even though you can be really annoying at times and just as stubborn as me and no matter how many times I tried to hate you, I just couldn't because I stopped seeing you as just a human. You made me start seeing you as a person and I'm actually thankful you did that because I got to get closer to a really amazing person." He said the last part quietly, but hearing that made my heart skip a beat and I started to blush. It made me really happy to hear that from Damien. I leaned over to Damien and kissed him on the cheek. "You're pretty amazing too." I said to him and I giggled as I saw him look pretty shock but then he smiled. We talked about random things after that.Once we got home, we both ran upstairs to our room to change into our pajamas. The others weren't back yet, so we both sat in the living room and watched tv. We were actually cuddling a little, which is a surprise but after everything that happened this weekend we did get closer. The front door opened and in came Mark and the others. "Next time you decide to take my car to fool around with Rose, at least tell me first." Mark said to Damien as he sat down next to me. "Pervert. We didn't do anything like that." I said to Mark as I hit his chest. "Then why are you two so close now?" Sarah asked us as she sat on a chair. "We just understand each other more now." Damien said with a smile. I smiled too as he said that. We really do understand each other more.
