Chapter 2 - Meeting the Mates

I slowly woke up to the sound of hissing. (Yes, I said hissing.) I didn't open my eyes since I thought I was still dreaming of Count Dracula.

You see last night my dad talked me into watching 'Dracula' with him. He thought it would be amusing. (Werewolves watching a movie about Vampires, get it?) Hence the dream I thought was currently coming out off.

I was fully awake and I could feel the heat from the sun filter through my window. I didn't want to open my eyes but the hissing continued. I turned my head to the sound and opened my eyes slowly. My eyes widened as I came face to face with Blubber, Ash's six feet pet python, on the bed lying next to me.

"Holy fuck!" I shouted as I bolted from my bed. I couldn't take my eyes of the thing. I hated snakes and they crawled my blood.

I vaguely heard laughter over the buzzing in my ear.

I tore my eyes away from that thing and spotted Ash leaned against my open bedroom door, laughing uncontrollably with tears streaming down his face.

I clenched my fist as I finally fully comprehended what the fucker had done. 'That swine was dead! Dead I tell you!'

I saw red as a growl broke from me and filled the room. Ash's laughter died quickly to a cough as he realized how angry I was. He saw my look which promised murder and bolted out my room and down the corridor. I ran after him, still in my shorts and tank top from last night.

He'd just about reached the top of the stairs when I lunged for him and tackled him to the floor. He quickly turned on his back and tried to push me off but it was useless. I straddled him as I grabbed both his hands in my own and held them over his head.

"What the fuck Ash! You think that was funny?" I demanded angrily.

He tried to contain his laughter but failed miserably. "You should have seen the look on your face! I swear you were going to wet yourself!" he laughed harder, gasping for breath.

I was just about to punch him in the face when I was yanked away from behind. My older brother Harry held me in a vice like grip which I couldn't break.

"Settle down Kay," Harry muttered in my ear. He then looked at Ash still sprawled on the floor laughing.

"What is all the commotion about Ash? Why is Kay trying to kill you this time?"

"Blubber -" he gasped. "Blubber is on her bed. You should have seen the look on her face man." He burst out laughing as he added, "It was priceless."

I struggled harder in Harry's arms since I wanted nothing better than to wrap my hand around his scrawny neck.

"Settle down Kay," Harry said as he bit back his laughter as well. "Ash was just having some fun."

"Fun?" I said with disbelief. "That wasn't fun, Harry! I am going to get a gun and shoot that bloody snake once and for all!"

"Oh relax Kayla," Ash told me as he fought his laughter. "Blubber wouldn't hurt a fly. He likes you and just wanted to say happy birthday."

I shuddered in Harry's arms. I hate that snake. Ever since Ash got it for his birthday last year he has been tormenting me with it.

"By the way," Ash continued, "Happy Birthday love."

I glared at him while mentally promising I will get my revenge. I feigned calmness and turned to Harry. "You can let me go now. I won't kill him."

Harry looked at me for a couple moments before releasing me slowly. I made a mad dash towards Ash but Harry's arms tightened around me instantaneously, holding me away. He then lifted me bodily and said to Ash over his shoulder. "Get Blubber out of here before she really kills you."
