My Vampire Mate

Chapter 3

It's been a long day and I can't wait to go home. I've been stuck in the kitchen all week sense my blow up on those customers. Hey don't get me wrong I understand... I was out of line and I need to learn a lesson but for the love of everything holly I have bills to pay to. I mean my tips are my everything. I talked to Daniel before I left and he was fine with letting me back on the floor next week as long as I behave myself. My shift is finally over THANK GOD! I start to walk out the door to head to the bus stop and I'm blinded by lights from a sleek black car.

Thinking nothing of it I continued on my way toward the bus stop. I was so caught up with the music streaming out of my headphones filling my soul with emotion as all music does that I didn't notice a car slowly creeping behind me. Finally it caught my attention and my blood went ablaze. This isn't the first time something like this has happened so I'm well prepared.

I turned toward the car to show them that yes I do know your there. Usually that is enough to have them speed off to whatever rock they crawled out of. I turned back to continue walking and realized they were not afraid that I knew they were watching me. I turned again toward them this time making sure they get the message that I'm not the one. "YOU WANT YOUR FUCKING THROAT CUT!" I yelled as I pulled out my switch blade that I got in a sleazy pawn shop near my apartment. "KEEP IT UP AND YOU'LL MEET YOUR MAKER!" I screamed to show I had no fear. I turned and continued to walk to the bus stop bench that was across the street.

The car never moved after I went bat shit crazy on them, but that's the crazy part. no they didn't try anything but yes they stayed on the other side of the street as if they were watching my every move. Finally the bus arrives and my nerves calmed. I kept an eye out the whole way and nothing. no car thank the heavens above. I'm finally home. I have school so I just strip down to my panties and throw on a black tank minus the bra. 'Sleep never felt so need.' I sighed. 

BANG...BANG...BANG... I jump. "what the hell? Is it the cops?" I say to myself BANG....BANG...BANG. I look at the clock and I still have fifteen minutes before my alarm would have gone off. "Damn it Shawn." I yelled as I was walking to the door. My friend Shawn goes to NYU with me and he lives two floors above. He doesn't start class as early as I do because he is a preforming arts major and I am a English and American Literature Major. However he is dating my friend Trevor from class. They met through me my freshman year and have been strong ever sense. I swing the door wide open in all my bed head underwear half asleep glory to see an angel standing before me smirking. Needles to say... I slammed the door shut.

BANG...BANG...BANG. "Please open the door I'd like to talk to you." he said trying to coax me. "What are you doing here? How did you find me? How much did you see?" I said rambling so fast you can tell my anxiety was getting the better of me. "I'll tell you if you open up." he replied in a cool calm tone. I ran to my dresser and put on some shorts. They were a little small though they were pajama shorts but hell they were better then the thin lace panties. Then I threw my jacket on so my braless wonders weren't showing.

"Fine....you can come in it's unlocked." I said as i sit on my couch fixing my hair to not look so pathetic. He walked in and just looked ravishing. He closed the door behind him and began to give my studio apartment a once over. "Umm....Lucy I think you have some explaining to do." I said desperate for him to stop judging my place. "Ah yes, I did promise answers. Well lets see.... I'm here for you. I can find anyone when I want to. As for how much did I see well not enough as I'd like to but more then I'm seeing now." he replied with a sexy confidence.

"What do you mean your here for me?" I asked shifting in my sit as my body began to warm. "I'm here to give you a lift to school and talk to you. You know get to know you." he explained. "A ride? Wait how do you know I go to school? Where I go for that matter? Why talk to me? There is nothing to know about me. Better Question.... WHY ME?" I almost yelled with excitement in my voice.
