Vampire Academy

Chapter 27

Noah was gone when I had awoken the next morning.
I could still smell the scent of him as it seemed to linger on my bedsheets and on my skin.
It was a mixture of sweetness and toxicity that made my nostrils burn but strangely crave for more.

As I sat up from the bed a small piece of paper caught the peripheral of my vision laying peacefully on my desk.
I walked over picking it up feeling it's papery texture on my fingertips.

The note was written in the most elegant fancy cursive I've ever seen in my entire life.
I read it over with a smile on my face.

If anyone were to ever ask me the meaning of beautiful I'd think of you. You are amazing and special and stunningly gorgeous in every way. I don't think I've ever met anyone quite like you, free-spirited and optimistic. Someone who is so capable of love and grace and courage. Sky Matthews, I love you in every way shape or form. You are my life now.
~Noah

"I love you too Noah" I whispered to myself.
Deep down I know that most of the things he said were lies because I wasn't courageous but the fact that he saw me as that, well...It made me feel something deep inside that I couldn't quite explain.

Who the fuck was I turning into? I chuckled to myself before heading into the shower to freshen up.

I was greeted with big smiles when I had finally came downstairs. "Sleep good?" Mom asked setting down a plate of bacon and eggs in front of me. "Um, yup slept like a baby" I said taking a bite of the crispy bacon.

In the back my mind images of Noah and I rolling around in bed circled my brain like a helicopter

"Well that's good sweetie"
She said seeming to hide a smirk.
For a moment I feared that she knew what Noah and I had done last night. There were moments where we were loud and I have to admit , anyone probably could've heard.

A deep blush settled upon my cheeks but I ignored it by shoveling food in my mouth.

"Looks like the police are still lurking around the Jenkins resident" My father said gazing out the window.

I walked up beside him, my eyes immediately connecting across the street.
My heart instantly dropped.

It was Candy's house, and it was wrapped around in bright yellow police tape. Alongside it were several police officers. The site made me want to throw up.

"Hey Sky are you ok?" My father asked cautioned by my sudden mood change.
"Yeah yeah I'm fine" I reassured.

"Listen, no one's gonna find out what happened you just have to stay calm and know that your mother and I are here for you, ok" His firm reassuring hand was placed on my shoulder.

I shook my head.
I was glad that they had my back but it was never going to be ok. I was still going to have the images of her in my mind even with all the distractions that seemed to be flourishing around me.

It sickened me, it sickened me to such an extent that it made my stomach twist and churn and.....

before I could think another thought I was suddenly on my feet and running to the closest toilet. My throat burned strongly as I vomited my breakfast.

My parents were close  behind me and patting my back by the time I had finished.

"I'm fine I'm fine please just leave me alone" I begged.
Knowing my limits they both left without argument.
I stood up shakily and brushed my teeth to get rid of the foul taste.

I had no idea what that was about. Did seeing all those police officers traumatize me that much?

And as if things couldn't get worse I was suddenly struck by a sharp pain in my abdomen that caused me to drop to the floor and release a cry.

In a second my parents were back in the bathroom huddling over me.
"My stomach! My stomach!" I kept saying over and over again.

After a full two minutes the pain had vanished and I was ok again though my parents were still surprised and stunned.

It took a while for me explain to them that I was fine and that it was just a very bad cramp.

After that I decided it would be  best to go back to my room since I began to feel off and thought as though I'd feel better with after a nap  and some ibuprofen.

I had woken up a few hours later and was surprised to see Noah beside me looking down at me with creases in his forehead.

"God! You almost scared me half to death" I laughed holding a hand to my chest.

He smiled kissing me gently.
"Hey beautiful"

"Hi" I responded.

"Feeling alright? your parents told me what happened today when I came to visit" he said in deep concern.

I sighed. "Noah you really don't have to worry about me."

"I just need you to know that what happened in the past happened in the past and you can't change what you did. You're just gonna have to live with it. I don't want you feeling guilty for the rest of your life" he expressed gingerly.

" I guess but I wasn't expecting to throw up like I did today I guess it just really got to me" I crooned.

Noah's face seemed to shift into one of confusion.
"Wait...you threw up today?" He asked.

So I guess my parents didn't tell him that, I wonder why.

"Yea it wasn't anything serious just an upset tummy" I said trying to calm him down.

He sighed lowly.

"You do know your the most stubborn person I've ever met right?"

I rolled my eye snuggling into him. "That's why you love me" I remarked.
He chuckled to himself wrapping his arms around me.
