It’d been a few days since I fainted after that Chinese dinner with Kris. Apparently it had something to do with my vampire change. I had to stay in bed for a few days because of the constant dizziness and change but now I was good as new. I brushed my blond hair in my mirror and stared at my reflection. The girl in the mirror wore a sea green halter neck top with denim shorts. Paired with that was a pair of black high top converses. Today was my first day at my new high school: Brooklyn International High School. I sighed, grabbed my side bag and left my room.
“Good morning Alexandra” Floren greeted as I approached the already set dining table.
“Morning” I nodded and sat down. A plate of omelette lay in front of me. Once I saw Floren start to eat, I started. A deafening silence settled over the table like a thick layer of fog, a silence that was scared and never appeared with Kristopher. After eating breakfast Floren decided to drive me to school. I’d gotten an induction and map the day before and I’d get my timetable today. The drive to school was also filled with silence.
The school building stood in all its glory with the golden plaque. Floren had to go to a very important meeting so she just dropped me off at the school gates. I got out and took a good look around. No one noticed me which I was glad for. I sighed and walked to the main building following the big signs. The office was medium sized with a decent amount given to the waiting room. “Hello, how may I help you?” the pretty brunette behind the desk asked.
“I’m a new student and I would like my timetable” I replied with a polite smile.
“Alright, what’s your name?” she asked. I debated whether to say Alexandra or Selena but then remembered I was officially named Alex here.
“Alexandra Bellatrix Vincent” She nodded.
“Alexandra Bellatrix Vincent, eh?” a male voice came up behind me. I spun around to come face to face with a tanned beauty. He had jet black hair which instantly reminded me of Scott and piercing green eyes that seemed to see through my soul. “Yh?” I asked.
“Nothing......hey babe, where’s my pass?” he asked the brunette. She rolled her eyes.
“Both of you please wait in the living room for awhile” she said before turning away.
We sat in silence before the boy decided to clear his throat. “So you’re new?” he asked.
“Yup”
“Welcome to Brooklyn cutie pie, I’m sure you’ll love it here” he winked. My first impressions of him weren’t that great. He appeared to your typical player bad boy and I didn’t want to get involved with him. We sat in silence before he annoyingly spoke again. “The name’s Costanzo, Damon Costanzo” he said. I simply nodded. After awhile of silence the receptionist came and handed two pieces of paper to both me and Damon. I thanked her and hurried to the door. I was glad I reached the hallway but before I could walk two steps further an arm was slung around my shoulder.
“Slow down tiger, I don’t bite.............hard” Damon chuckled. I shrugged his arm off in annoyance.
“What do you want Mr Costanzo?” I asked, attempting to shoo him away with my formality. Damon suddenly exploded into a fit of unattractive laughter whilst I just watched him with a bored expression. After he was done he wiped an invisible tear from his eye. “You’re something, you know that?” he asked. I rolled my eyes and turned to continue walking when he stopped me again. Before I could say anything he grabbed my timetable and scanned it. “Give it back you douche!” I yelled, not caring if anyone heard us. “Here” he said handing it back. “See you in maths” he winked before walking off.
When I walked into my first class which was Geography everyone froze and stared at me making me feel a bit self conscious. “Yes, how may I help you dear?” the man who I assumed was my teacher asked. “I uh.....I ......I’m new” I stuttered. Realisation crossed his features.
“Oh alright, come on then” he said. I walked in and handed him a late pass. He nodded.
“Where do I sit?” I questioned.
“That’s up to you Ms. Bellatrix” he shrugged. I scanned the classroom bravely and headed towards the window seat at the back. After a few moments everyone settled and the lesson started again.
After a few hours of plain torture the bell rang signalling it was break. I trudged out of class deciding to go get some lunch which I would eat at lunch in the library. I followed the crowd of people and entered the grand canteen which was more like a really big dining hall. I went to queue up behind a blonde boy for my food. I wondered what type of food they had here since the school was posh and all. “Excuse me are you Alexandra Vincent Bellatrix?” someone asked from behind me. I turned around to find a strawberry blonde. She had pale skin, a curvy body and black endless orbs. On her wrists she wore waay too many bracelets. “Yes I am” I replied giving her a wary look.
“New girl?” she asked to which I nodded.
“I’m Kristina Abel” she said extending her hand. I shook it.
“I’m meant to be your ‘buddy’” she explained.
“Are you kidding me? Is this........this is some kind of sick joke” I said turning away.
After grabbing a sandwich and a drink, I went to the field and sat right at the back. I was just about to open my bag when my phone rang. “Hello?” I asked, not recognizing the number.
“Hey, it’s me Reagan” came the voice.
“Reagan! Omg, hey!” I exclaimed.
“Hey, how’s NY?”
“It’s.....different” I replied and heard muffled laughter followed by static before the line went dead. I sighed and got up as the bell rang. But before I could walk further I was roughly pulled back. I tried to scream but a hand covered my mouth so my screams were muffled. “Let me go!......Let......me go!!” I tried to shout. Suddenly I was thrown roughly onto the grass and my vision became blurry.
The last thing I saw was his face.
