Misfits

Chapter 2

Lapis' Pov

I woke up drenched in sweat, my heart beating fast. What am I saying, I don't have a heartbeat, vampires don't have one.

But I was still sweating though. I had to go and get some air or else I'd suffocate. I ran outside our house and went straight to the forest.

You see, since my family and I are vampires, we don't have to live in a giant pack house like those mutts. Werewolves are so old school, but I can't deny that almost all of them are extremely attractive.

Werewolves and vampires have naturally god-like features, that's why people mostly drool at the thought of us even though we could possibly kill them in an instant. As I ran through the forest, I could feel the rush of adrenaline coursing through my veins and I made an abrupt stop.

Something's wrong. I could feel it, smell it even. It was still dark since it's still 4am, but I could see perfectly. I could sense that I wasn't alone in the woods.

I may have huge amount of strength and speed but our senses aren't as great as those of werewolves. That's the only thing that made me admire their kind. After a minute waiting in the center of the woods, I sneaked around to see what the other presence was.

I saw a clearing and a figure laying down the grass. It was a wolf. A beautiful one, it made me tilt my head to the side and admire its features. It wasn't white nor was it black, it was the perfect shade of blonde fur and a batch of darker fur on her paws. I know that its a she-wolf because it was average sized yet much bigger than normal wolves. Maybe she was a daughter of a ranked wolf? It could be possible. While I was admiring her I didn't notice that I stepped on a fallen branch and the wolf was on high alert. I closed my eyes and kept quiet so she wouldn't be able to hear me and I heard grass rustling. She ran away and left. I sighed and opened my eyes. I walked over to where she was laying and saw pieces of dried leaves. Almost all of them were brown. An orange colored leaf caught my eye. I picked it up and sniffed it. Her scent was still there, then I decided to take the leaf and I ran back home. After running upstairs to my room, I took my favorite book and placed the leaf inside and placed the book on my nightstand. I wonder if I'll see her again. I'm turning Sixteen in a few months that means I'll get to know who my beloved is. (Beloved is like a mate for vamps but I think I just made that up XD) I look forward to who I'll spend my eternity with. I went to bed and closed my eyes. Hoping that I'll fall asleep.

Later in the afternoon...

I woke up by the sound of my alarm clock and I threw it all the way across my room. I groaned as it smashed into little pieces. I rubbed my eyes to get the sleep away and stretched. I made sure the curtains were covering the windows and I went to the bathroom to take a bath. I didn't close the curtains just so that people wouldn't peek on me, I did it because I don't want to burn. I may not die and fall into ashes because of the sun but I could still get seriously hurt. Why add windows? Well, my dad thought that it was a good idea so people wouldn't think of things they shouldn't think of. As I finished bathing, I covered myself in a towel and took clothes out of my walk-in-closet. I grabbed a black and white long sleeved shirt and a red flannel, and I picked some short shorts. I put on my knee high socks and red converse. (Pic on the side, tell me if my describing was wrong, I really don't know fashion haha XD) I headed downstairs and saw dad sitting on the barstool next to the counter. "Hey dad." I kissed him on his cheek. "How are you honey? I heard thumping on your room earlier this morning. You better not have boys hiding up there." He told me with a smirk. My eyes widened at what he said. "C'mon Dad, don't be ridiculous. You know I'm waiting for my beloved and nobody can change the fact that I'll be single 'till I meet him. That's final." I explained. My father looked at me with a smile. "I know you won't betray your beloved by having boyfriends but, don't you think that you need to have a little fun?" He said. I laughed, "Dad, I'm still Sixteen. I have my whole life ahead of me and even if I'm a hundred or so years old, I'd still be young like you and mom. How old are you guys?? 600 or something?? You guys look like you're 35 or less. Don't worry." I explained and he smiled at me. He enveloped me in a hug and we stayed like that until we heard a cough. "Am I missing out on something? 'Cause I really wanna know what happened. Also c'mere, I want to join that hug train." My mom went over to us with her arms wide and hugged Dad and I. I squeezed them and I let go of the hug. "So, are you ready for school tonight Lapis? Have you packed your things? Do you need anything else? What if you get bullied?! Oh no, call me if something happens okay?" My mom went wild, she kept on pacing over and over again. "Mom, I'll be fine. No one's gonna bully me. And if they do, they'll have to answer to this." I raised my fist. My mom chuckled and hugged me again. "Oh darling, I'm going to miss you. Just remember to call or visit sometime okay? Now, let's take all of your clothes and other thing to the car and your father will drive you to the academy." She said. I only nodded and went upstairs to carry some of the boxes. Did I mention that I'm leaving my home? Yeah, the academy requires us to stay there at all costs, kinda like a boarding school. It's fine by me, I don't know about the others though. As we took my luggage and place them in the car, I kissed my mom goodbye as Dad started the car. We waved goodbye and drove to the academy.
