Take Me Home [MiniCat]

The next day I expected to see Tyler, but I didn't. Not at all throughout the entire day. Evan wasn't there either. The two of them hadn't returned since last night. I would have gone up to their friends and asked them myself where they where but it would have been slightly awkward, and completely irrelevant. Yeah, hi. I spoke to your friend yesterday and I want to know where he is today. Real smart, right? No. I almost laughed at the idea, but I was in Mr. Jefferson's class getting lectured. Tori was silent throughout and Brian was late in as usual. He got himself another detention before joining me and 'Miss Lawful' at our seats. He smirked once making eye contact with me, making me flush red. I couldn't help it, it was like instinct. "Hey hot stuff." Brian whispered as he took his backpack off his shoulders.

"H-hi." Real fucking smooth Craig. Real smooth.
"You should really tell Tyler to get off of your back already."
"Why is he on it in the first place?" I asked, wanting some answers from someone.
"Because you're different, you're special." Special my ass.
"I'm fed up of hearing that." I huffed, folding my arms.
"It's not my position to tell you what you are. You should already know, but apparently you weren't given the books." He rolled his eyes.
"What books? There's book I need to read now too?" I raised my eyebrows.
"It's a figure of speech. I mean, your parents would have told you this."
"They didn't." I bit my lower lip, trying not to ask why my parents were involved.
"You should biting your lip like that, unless you want to get attacked." He smirked again. I quickly opened my mouth and took a breath in, shaking my head.

"I don't care anymore. Leave me alone." I lied, looking to the front of the hall.
"Don't lie to me Craig, I know you want to-." I cut him off by pulling out the red bracelet from my pocket and holding it so only him and I could see.
"I said, leave me alone." I repeated in a quieter voice. He huffed and sat back on his seat. I sat forward, as to make sure I could see him look at me.
"I know where Tyler is." Bullshit. "And Evan." Coincidence. "They left yesterday night. They're still gone now." Lucky guess? "I know you can hear me Tiny Lad." I lifted up the bracelet that was still in my hand, keeping my gaze at the front of the room. He quietened down, letting me know he got the point.
"It's Mini Lad." I whispered.

After my different lectures I was walking back to my dorm to get homework done. My hands were full of books, making all the girls laugh at me. What a nerd. What a loser. Yada yada fuck off. At least I'm getting a job. I thought to myself, making me smile a little. I walked past the car park and to the grass path, seeing people under the tree where Tyler would usually stand. They were Tyler's friend groups. 'Vanoss'. Although, Evan and Tyler weren't there. As I expected. What I didn't expect was for one of them to come up to me, looking pretty panicked. Why am I getting this attention? "Craig!" One of them called while walking up to me. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, why wouldn't I be? How do you know my name?" I replied, becoming more side tracked with every question. More of his friends joined us.

"Did Brock hurt you? Or Brian? Or Tori?" He looked my body up and down.
"No. What the hell are you on about?" I looked about them all.
"Fockin' typical." One of them commented.
"Uuggghhh."
"Come on!" [1]
"Did he not tell you about this?" The kid asked me, still looking for blood or cuts.
"No. Every time someone tries to tell me we get cut off." I sigh.
"Well. It's time to explain. Come with me." He grabbed my wrist, tugging me along.

"I'm Jonathan. This is Lui, David and Marcel." They all nodded while Jonathan pointed them out. I smiled at them. "So you know about, us, right?"
"You're vampires?" I replied more as a question. He nodded.
"We're Vanoss. Your friend Tori is Lawful, and you don't want to know whose Cryaotic." He explained. "The reason I'm telling you this is because you're special."
"Oh not with this again..." I rolled my eyes.
"No you really are!" David shouted, moving forward to get past Jonathan.
"You basically have relations to the Royals." Lui stated.
"You hold the key to war and destruction." Marcel added.
"I don't have a key, and none of my family are royal." I folded my arms.
"No you dummy. You have relations to that family because you hold the key."
"What key? I don't have a key!"

"That's where we're stuck too. See the prophecy says..."
"The prophecy? There's a prophecy now?" I need to sit down.
"Yeah. It says that this year is the year of destruction. Vampires have been fearing it for decades. Although nobody said who was holding the key, they said that we would know who it is when we see them." I pinched the bridge of my nose.
"So you're just guessing that it's me." Jonathan shook his head.
"We're not guessing! Besides, the werewolves can see it too." Lui complained.
"Alright. I need some time to... Think." I took a few deep and collected breaths. They all nodded and looked between one another. Jonathan sighed.
"This is a lot for you to take in, I get it."
"Can I go back to my dorm now?" I asked, holding one hand to my head.
"Sure. We'll walk you back." I have such a headache...

Hey,
[1] I can just imagine which one of them said what. Like I unintentionally wrote out things they would say.
I'm also going ahead and writing a book full of short stories about what goes on in my like.
It's called 'A Collection of Essays'
If you wanna read it, you should follow, and never miss an update (;
