The Academy Vampire

{ Chapter 26 } - Decisions to Make

A/N: I couldn't wait until next week. I was too excited, so here's the next chapter! :D 

If the description is kinda confusing, I added an image above so you can visualize it :)

----- Sang's Pov ----

After I left the bathroom last night, there was little to no incidents. North, Silas, and I went throughout the rest of the day and night in peace.

The next day, however, is when everything went downhill.

Everything was going great. North cooked dinner, much to Sean's protest and the rest of the house's delight. In reality, he didn't have to make a lot, since Sean and the rest of the vampires can technically go without eating human food, but it was a formality to make enough for everyone.

The table arrangements were quickly questioned as soon as the boys arrived, however. On one side of the table, from left to right, was Aiden, Victor, Kota, Silas, North, Nathan, then Luke. At the head of Luke's end of the table was Mr. Blackbourne. On the other side, from right to left, was Gabriel, Nikolai, Elijah, Cody, Sang, Olivia, and Asher. At the head of that side of the table was Sean, of course.

"Why is she sitting over there, instead of with us?" Nathan asked. North was going back and forth, setting down the dishes in the middle of the dining room table, but he was still assessing the situation each time he entered the room. Sean decided that we should sit in the usually untouched dining room, because the kitchen table was too small for our large group.

"Don't question my methods," Olivia snapped, her boys walking into the room soon after her. They were all dressed nicely, some with nice blazers while others just stuck to simple dress shirts. "My boys may act sickly sweet with you, but I didn't sign up for this game we're playing. I'm here because Sean asked us to come, and for Sang. The free dinner and a show is just a bonus."

"But-." Victor started to protest, but Kota stopped him.

"It's fine. If she was sitting on our side of the table, most of us wouldn't be able to see her anyway," Kota explained, laying a soft hand on my shoulder as he smiled down at me.

I grinned, noticing the little sparkle in his eyes. It wasn't something that was always there, but it's something I've begun to notice since the night Sean cooked us dinner. Nathan and North had a similar look to their eyes, but their behavior was even stranger...

Both looked like they were ready to fly at each other and rip the other apart. The had never really been close before, but this has gotten increasingly tense between the two ever since Nathan was caught sucking on my finger.

Olivia looked between the boys, to Kota's infectious smile, to me. Her smiled dropped more and more into a frown as her eyes traveled from each of us.

"Sang," she growled, "We need to talk."

"What do you need her for," Nathan started to get up from his chair, when he was stopped.

"Nope. Sit down," Asher said, physically pushing Nathan back down, "Give Sang and Olivia some girl time."

"But-." Victor started to protest.

"Let her breath for a few seconds, jeez," Gabriel snapped, crossing his arms and leaning into Nikolai.

I didn't hear the rest of the argument, as Olivia pulled me out of the dining room, down the hall, and up the stairs to what must be her room, as she plopped me in front of her vanity. She went over and dug through her closet as I sat looking at my reflection in the mirror.
