I had super-mega-vampire-teenage-angst. It's official.

"Lucas. Why did that poor girl just run out of your room in tears?"  Janesse said, hands on hips.

"Go away."

"Lucas answer her!" That was Vikrum. He was looking at me all dissapointed. 

I hated him for that.

"Because I reminded her of her parents death." I muttered.

Vikrum looked outraged, "So you did that AND threw a lamp at her?" 

"Yes..." 

Janesse's eyes widened and then narrowed.

"Go away." I said again.

They did. But not before shaking their heads disapprovingly.

Barty bit my toes as I lay back on the neon orange chez long. I couldn't be bothered to knock him away.

A voice in the back of my head whispered, "Go and talk to her." 

I ignored it. 

For the first time in years, I voluntarily drank a cup of blood. It didn't help. Being a vampire was sucky again. I got up and looked out of the oval window. I was shocked to see Cassandra sat under a tree by the edge of the cliff. She looked upset, of course. Barty meowed and hopped onto the sill. An idea streaked into my head, and I walked to the cabinet by the door. It was empty except for a small bottle- magic dust. Some say it doesn't exist. It does. Trust me. I got it out and shook some on Barty, saying,

"Magic I've sprinkled, 

On my cat,

Send him to Cassandra,

And nothing but that."

Barty was gone. He'd come back soon. I hope. Walking to the other window- by the bed- I watched the sun set.
