Vampire Academy

Chapter 21

There was no way I was going back home after what I did. Ugh, I still can't believe I actually did that and I can't believe that I actually enjoyed it.

What the hell is wrong with me?

Luckily I had enough common sense to bury Candy's body before her parents got home. My god would that have been horrible if they arrived and saw their dead daughter in the hands of a demon.

After all that commotion I had found myself walking back and forth in front of a lichor store a few blocks down from my house.
My parents must of dialed me a hundred times but all I could do was ignore them.

How the hell would I explain this mess to them?
"Hey mom and dad it seems that instead of enrolling me in a normal boarding school you enrolled me in one filled with vampires, oh and here's another thing, I think I'm turning into one and I may have accidentally killed my friend. Sorry"

I shook my head at how stupid I would sound trying to explain all the shit that has been accruing in my life.
Fumbling through my contacts my thumb lands on Noah's cell number and with out a second thought I clicked it waiting as the line began to ring.

On the second ring he picked up and I felt the urge to smile when I heard his warm voice say 'hello' but today wasn't the day to be smiling.
"Noah I need you to get me out of here. I did something really bad" I said looking around to make sure no one could over hear my conversation.

"Well hello to you too" he chuckles wholeheartedly over the phone.
"I'm sorry for being rude but I really need your help right now" I say in a serious voice that seems to change the atmosphere.

   "I don't understand Sky what's wrong what did you do?" He asked as my bottom lip trembled. I wish I didn't have to tell him. I wish he could just read my mind so I wouldn't have to say it out loud because that'll only make me realize what a monster I truly am.

"Sky please answer me" his sweet voice vibrated against my earlobe.  I close my eyes as I say it "I killed someone" the words rush from my mouth so quickly I myself barley understood them.
The line was silent for a few moments.

"Don't say another word you can explain later I'm coming to pick you up were are you?"

"200 Washington street the Adams lichor store" I answered and then the only thing I could hear was the line being cut off.

Shoving my phone in my pocket I ran an exhausted hand through my hair leaning my back against the brick wall. I knew going home in the condition I was in was a huge mistake. I should've just stayed my ass at the academy.

A few minutes later there was a shinny black BMW slowing down in front of me. I felt a bit uneasy but immediately felt better when the window rolled down exposing Noah's beautiful face. I sighed in relief jogging up to the passengers side.

"Are you ok?" He asked once I was in and the car began moving.
I mumbled a yes sinking into the plush leather seats that still smelled new.
His hand found its way to my thigh gently giving it a squeeze.
He always knew how to comfort people.
But should I even deserve to feel comfort?

I really needed to evaluate some things in my life.
I needed to know whether or not I'm a vampire even though it's remotely impossible for me to be, but still. No regular human beings feels the need to drink human blood.
But Christ did it feel amazing, I feel amazing. There's just such a physical and mental strength the blood gives and saying I didn't enjoy the fulfilling high would be a definite lie.

To put it in more simpler words. I'm like myself (x) a thousand. How crazy is that?

Soon enough the car slowed down once it reached the front of two large black steel gates. I watched in amazement as Noah downed his window pressing a few keys on a pad with glowing numbers.
Astonishingly the two gates opened giving off a metallic sound. He needs to pass through gates to get to his house? Oh lord now I'm anxious.

He sent me a cocky smirk as he eased through them.
My jaw must have been touching the floor when he parked us in front of the biggest house I've ever seen in my literal life.

I'm not even lying when I say that house was like a miniature palace for Greeks and goddesses.
"You live here" I boasted still in a daze as I continued to scan the place observing every inch of it.

"Yeah come on in" he ordered unlocking the door before pulling me inside.
"Wait hold up is your dad home?" I asked semi frantic.
When Noah shook his head I sighed in relief.

It would have defiantly brought up some suspicion if Mr. Hensmen saw me in his home.

The house was even more beautiful on the inside than on the out leaving me to take my time looking over every painting, lamp, and detour.
Man was I jealous.

Well...atleast I have a boyfriend that lives in a big house so I still sort of win. A part of me still wonder if Noah and I should even be considered boyfriend and girlfriend? Yes. I had sex with the guy so that declares it.

I followed close behind Noah as he guided me up a long twirling staircase.
I mentally smile when I childishly run my hands up the rails as we went by.

I feel like some obsessed creep the way I'm analyzing every part of Noah's room as we enter it.
He gives me a strange look that gives me the impression that he's uncomfortable with my staring but I shrug it off and continue anyway.

I mean, you can't just have a big house and expect people like me to not to come in and stare like a freak. That's just showing a lack of hospitality.

"So..you want to talk about the phone call?"
I blink a few times emerging from my daze as I realize that he's talking to me.
Then I become nervous.

I sink to his bed letting my hands rest on my lap. It's like I'm about to confess to a murder, oh thats right I am.
"How did it happen" Noah spoke in a calm manner.
I close my eyes for a moment before reopening them.

"My mom cut herself today..Something just came over me. It's hard to explain. I just wanted so badly to kill her, to suck every ounce of blood in her body.."
The atmosphere becomes cold.
 
"That's unusual I mean, your just a mortal" Noah crooned with a concentrated look on his face.

"I know it's crazy. But the weirdest thing happened. I had a fang sprouting from my gums it was insane. Luckily I made it out of the house without anyone noticing but then I ran into an old friend someone I now very much dislike" I looked to see if he was still following before continuing.

"She just kept pestering me and I snapped. I couldn't control myself, but it was almost like I didn't want to. It just felt so good, so right" My words came out covered in a thick layer of melvolencay.

"Noah. I think I'm a vampire" I confessed a single tear sliding down my cheek.
He shook his head running both hands through his hair. "No. That's impossible I can still hear your heartbeat there's no way your a vampire"

"Then what's wrong with me" I nearly shouted. Anger,fear, every emotion that could ever be felt was raging through me like a drug.
I didn't mean to yell at him and so I felt bad. Leaning my head on his shoulder I muffled my sobs in his black T as he patted my hair like a fluffy pet.

"Noah it turns out I don't have to stay out late" A voice interrupts our pity party.
My head snaps and both my eyes dilate to the size of quarters.

It's Mr.Hensmen-
