My Love For A Vampire

chapter six

next morning

"Drusilla!" I heard mom yell to me. I got up from my bed, which today I didn't wont to get up. I stretch my arms out and noticed my phone on my stand. he brought me my phone back, I thought. I grab my phone from the stand then found a note too. I grab the note and it had said. "found your phone next to the bushes. I hope we get to see each other tonight, Spike."
and at that moment, I had smiled. why did this guy make me smile all the time, I asked myself. I just met him like two days ago and now I'm smiling like an idiot, smiling like I've never smiled before. Jackson never really made me smile like that before and it was weird to think.
I got up from my bed and place the note back on my stand, as I did, I started to get ready to go to school.
after getting ready, I had went down stairs to find mom in the living room, watching the news and drinking coffee. "hey, sweetie." she turned her face to me.
"hey." I rub my eyes, because how tired I was. "Anything on the news?"
"nothing really. they say it's supposed to rain this Friday," she told me.
"oh okay." I went to the kitchen and had grab an Apple, as I did, mom came to the kitchen and stood there, looking at me.
"what?" I asked as putting the Apple to my mouth and about to eat it.
"meet anybody new at school?" she wondered.
"no. well,  Eve came back." I took a bite of my Apple.
"that's great to hear, but how about any other guys?"
I raised an eyebrow. "no."
she didn't say anything.
"I got to go, mom. I'll see you after work." I walked away from her and grab my bad and with that, I had left out to go to school.

as I started to walk down the hallway, I had found Eve at her locker, grabbing her books.
I walked up to her with a big smile on my face and I held the dress in my hands. "surprise!"
she looked up and just didn't do anything. no big smile, or no hugging. "oh hey." she turned her face back to her locker and I was confused.
"you okay?" I asked.
"you didn't reply back to me, so how am I okay," she said out loud.
"are you for real right now? you're getting upset because I didn't text you back, well I'm sorry! something happened."
"why didn't you tell me that something happened last night?" she wondered.
I didn't say anything.
she knew now. "oh my gosh." she shut her locker door and stood in front of me and whisper. "you were with him, weren't you?"
"come with me," I said as grabbing her hand and bring her to the bathroom.
"please say you're not falling for this guy," she cried to me.
I moved away from her and had rub my face with my hand. "I don't know, okay. I just met him and I can't fall for a guy just like that." I snap my fingers together. "but last night when I was heading home and you were telling me about being careful, well I heard something and by the time I turned around, he was in front of me. so, I got scared and my phone flew out my hands and landed in someone's grass and I was looking all over for it but couldn't find it, so we left because the porch light came on and he told me that he was going to find it for me and give it to me the next morning and he did."
she didn't say anything.
"please don't tell Jackson about this. he'll freak out and get worried," I said.
"well I'm kind of worried. This guy pops up out of nowhere, starts to talk to you and it's like he wants something from you." she sat ontop of the sink. "what if he is a kidnapper?"
I looked at her weird. "if he was, then why hasn't he grab me?"
she shook her shoulders. "maybe waiting for the right time."
I didn't say anything.
"but listen, your secret is safe with me." she hop off the sink and stood in front of me. "You're my best friend and best friends are supposed to be there for you."
I smiled alittle. "normally a best friend will tell you to stay away from this guy because you already have a boyfriend."
"true, but one last thing. you know what you're doing?"
I nodded. "yes of course." I then held up the dress up. "Oh and here's your dress."
She reached for it. "I love it. I can't believe did brought it."
"Well, that's what best friends are for." I came up to her and had hug her. "I'm glad you are back."
"Same here. Where would you be if you didn't have me?"
We both laughed and decided to go to class.
Later on that day after school, it was already break and so I had walked down the hallway, trying to find Jackson. Weird, I haven't seen him all day, I thought.
"Hey, have you seen Jackson?" I ran up to Eve and she looked at me.
"No, why?"
"I haven't seen him. Why do I got a feeling that he's mad at me?" I said nervously.
"Probably because you lied about the cup thingy," she said.
She was right. It was probably about that but I didn't wont to tell him the truth because if he found out about me meeting that guy, then he would worried. He would worried if I would leave him for this mystery guy.
I looked again and then I had found him. He was with Mikey. "There he goes." I moved away from Eve and ran over to him. "Hi."
Miley looked at Jackson. "I'll see you later." With that, he had walked off.
Jackson looked at me. "Hey! I haven't seen you all day."
"Yeah same here with you. Were you with Mikey this whole time?" I asked.
He nodded. "Yeah. We stayed in the library and did our project there."
I didn't say anything. In a way I felt as Jackson and I were fading away. The whole new year being a senior felt like it was moving us away from each other. I didn't like that.
"You okay?" He asked me. He knew I was upset.
I nodded. "Yeah." With that, the bell had rung to go to class. "I'll see you later." I back away and by the time I could walk off, he had grab my hand and said. "Whatever is bothering you, you can tell me."
I nodded. "Yeah I know." I moved my hand away from him and walked off.
Tears were slowly running down my face.
Was this little lie pushing Jackson and I away?
