Barbara Ellen Palmer Cullen

Chapter 5: School

                "Alright everyone settles down." The teacher shouted.

        He was young, maybe in his late twenties. The girls found him attractive. I didn't need to touch them to figure that out.

                "We have a new student, Ellen Cullen."

        At the mention of my last name, everyone stared at me. The way they looked at me made me feel uncomfortable. Yes, I'm used to people staring but the hunger and lust in their eyes freaked me out.

                "Does anyone have any questions for her?"

        Everyone's hand shot up in an instant.

        Thanks to my rescue Alice and Rose strutted in, just before the late bell.

                "She's not one to talk." Alice chirped.

        Everyone stared in awe at her.

                "I'm assuming she'll be sitting with the two of you?" He replied.

                "Yes, she will."

                "In that case, everyone gets started. The work is on the board."

        All we had to do was to write a song about how we feel about someone in our lives. The rest of the day went the same way exempt in English. I knew the minute I walked in it was going to be hard to control my thirst. I could smell HIM across the class. The teacher had me sit next to him and as I was sitting I moved my seat over to the end of the desk.
