Just One Bite

~Ella's P.O.V.~

"Really, Mother?" I ask, looking up at the huge building that was to be my school. The building was a bright, cheerful building, with bright colored flowers going all around, and a stone path with multicolored stones. The building looked to be made of marble, which hurt my eyes. Being a vampyre, I have sensitive eyes when it comes to light. Mainly sunlight, but sometimes the light inside can hurt me.

"Yes, Eleanora," my mother replies, giving me a stern look.

"We couldn't go to Hogwarts?" I ask, my voice full of sarcasm.

"No, Eleanora," my mother replies, oblivious to my sarcasm.

"Well, I refuse to live in a rainbow for three months," I say, slumping back into my seat.

"Alright, it is a little..." my mom trails off, giving me an opportunity.

"Bright? Colourful? Clean? Neat? Shiny? Pathetic? Hell?"

"I was going to say unique," my mother replies.

"Let's get this over with," I say, giving my mother a look of loathing she didn't see.

"Don't forget to wake Charles," my mother says. I completely forgot about him. Charles is actually my twin brother, older than me by an hour. We look nothing alike, considering he was born with dark brown hair with pale green highlights and the same shade of eyes. He has a strong jaw line, pale skin, and his lip, eye brow, tongue, and ears pierced. Well, his ears are actually gauged, and he has green spikes through them. He should have been next in line for the crown, but he is gay. Now, guess who has to be married in three months? Yep, you got it. Me.

"Charlie!" I say, turning around in my seat.

"I need ice cream," he mumbles in reply.

"Why do you need ice cream?" I asked, a little amused.

"So Damien and I-," he starts, but I close my ears and scream.

"My poor ears!" I yell, causing Charlie to jump awake.

"Where is the ice cream?" he asks, blinking sleep away.

"Apparently on Damien," I reply, shuddering a little bit, but only in a teasing way. Damien is Charlie's ex, but Charlie still has feelings for him. Mother made them break up because she "did not approve" of Damien. If Charlie dates anything with a penis, Mother instantly disapproves of them. Dad is cool with it, and wouldn't care if Charlie got the throne.

"Yum," he says, causing me to burst out laughing.

"Well you two, let's go," my mother says, causing me to jump and laugh harder. We hop out of the Lamborghini our mother insisted on us taking. I close the door as Mother popped the trunk so we could grab the luggage. After I grabbed all three of my bags, I started heading to the bright doors.

"Need your shades, sis?" I hear Charlie ask from behind me. I nod, and he hands me my pair of designer shades I thought I left at home.

"Dammit, Charlie!" I snap, yanking my shades onto my face. "I needed these!"

"I know you do," he replies. Instantly, I could see better. It didn't help fully, but was noticeably better. I open the door, and walk in, followed by my mother and brother.

The inside is just as bright as the outside, with yellow walls, covered with brightly colored paintings, a hardwood floor, and plants hanging in pots and sitting on the tables. I literally shuddered at the colorfulness (is that even a word?) around me as we walk down a hallway to the office.
