In Our Blood

Chapter 9

Lilith eventually started to dance with me but there was a sudden snap that made her stop and instantly sit down and I squatted down in front of her and said "Hey, dude its okay." she picked up the broken pencil and stared at it. I took it from her hands and I pulled out a needle, I pricked my finger with it, drawing blood. I wiped it on the broken remains, after a couple minutes of waiting, there was a couple small snaps of wood, then, the pencil was renewed. I handed it to her and smiled. She looked at me in awe.

"What? You can't do that? All vampires can" I said confused.

"Y-You're a vampire?" She asked slowly, I nodded and said

"Aren't you?" She shook her head. I took my hair and revealed two small bit marks.

"So here's a bit of facts about vampires, since you are going to a fucking vampire school, 1. We do not drink human blood... Well some of us do, but doing so causes you to become more powerful, but age quickly. 2. We can't die from sunlight or garlic, we just get really bad sunburns and Garlic is just what we're allergic to. 3. Vampire blood can mend pretty much anything, the bigger the object, the more blood. Its that simple. And 4. Vampires have different tiers, I am on the top tier in our school, that's why the teachers don't care if I leave. So if you have anyone bothering you, let me know, They'll run away like little pussys if they see me." I let out a smile, she eventually started to tense down and she looked down at the pencil and smiled.

We continued to work on the project for another hour, until my mother yelled for us to come down. We went down stairs and sat at the long table, my sister was talking to my father about grades, and my brother was nowhere in sight, mother had us get dished out, it was a classic american meal, my mother apparently already sensed that she was a human, otherwise we'd be having raw chicken rather than cooked. I wonder how she can have that strong of sense.
