First Drop

Chapter 8: Laws

"If you know any information you MUST tell us, okay?" the police officer stated

"Ok" I muttered

"Okay, well I think we'll come around tomorrow but until then, Goodbye" 

The two officers left the house without trying to push and pull there way through. The reporters had left a few days before. There was no news anymore from this subject as there was no known murders by the media. I had an I idea that was Sarah's idea. I stood up after being asked several questions and went to my room. It was been 1 month that day since the death of Rachel Sampson and I had not been to school once since them. I had an idea that Sarah was still going to school as she only came to my room at night. She told me that tonight was one of the few night she would go hunting. As much as she hated it, she had to stay strong. So that meant I would not see her that night. I got into bed after taking off my clothes and tried to go to sleep. I heard I thud and a voice. I opened my eyes to find Sarah laying on top off me. She kissed me then got under the covers and stayed close to me. I turned towards her. She told me about who she hunted and how she felt and I asked how she was able to come tonight. As she was talking I began to worry more and more. Because I don't think she noticed that I was completely naked under the covers. It was incredibly embarrassing. After a long time talking, Sarah fell asleep. After her I did. The sleep was peaceful and it felt right with Sarah there with me. I felt complete. Then next day I woke up to a bed to myself. I felt ready for the day, even if it was waiting until the night for Sarah. I got changed and brushed by teeth and washed my face. I ran down stairs to have my breakfast and watch the news. And I was thankful the news was not about me. Because the people that the vampires hunted were unknown, people living in streets, un-talked to people, people no one would ever remember. After watching the news my mom came to sit next to me.

"How would you feel about going to school today?" she asked

"I think...it would be a really good idea" I said sounding excited

"Okay, well your dad will drop you off in a minute, are you sure you want to do this Jake?" she asked again

"Yeah, I'm sure" I said while walking to the door

After the talk from my mom and my dad waiting in the car for me I ran down the front door steps like I did the previous month. I got in the car and went to school. My mom waved goodbye and then went back into the house. Me and my dad didn't talk the way there, just the words 'bye' when I left the car. When I got out the car I had no one coming to talk to me, no people crowing me just a ocean of dirty looks. I walked to the main office to get a timetable and even the receptionist gave me and horrible look. I went to my Law & religion class for the beginning of the day. I walked in late as I was getting my timetable, when walking in the whole room just stopped to look and stare. Not one eye left my face. Mrs Moore gave me some work and sat me on a desk of my own at the very back. Mrs Moore then went on to Law responsibilities. 'When a crime in committed, you must go to the police' Mrs Moore said to the class with other sentences similar to that. I felt uncomfortable with the subject Mrs Moore picked. My life was ripped into shreds. Do I pick the Law and turn Sarah in, and the rest of the vampires to take the focus of me or do I pick my love for Sarah, love that I have never felt for someone. I had to decide.
