VAMPIRE EMPIRE

CHAPTER FOUR.

I know. I should have told Drew something. But watching him dunk and the cheering squad good wilder and wilder made me believe he'd be fine without me . He likes to be cheered. We all do.

"I think that would be fun, let's do it. " I agree springing to my feet and stumping my pins and needles away. Gosh, that's uncomfortable, and how does that happen? I can't sit in whatever posture I want for as long as I want? Bullcrap. I push my hands in my hoodie pockets and feel my hands meet over some case.Am not  very proud of this but I may have carried my glasses accidentally. Crap.

"What's the problem? Everything OK? " He inquires from me.
He  notices things too fast. If I stopped breathing right now he'd know. If a strand of my hair plucked off my scalp am pretty sure he'd know. And he would let you know he knew

I find that... I  still don't have a personal view yet.

I don't answer him. That way I don't lie. We walk chatting almost nothing sensible, just me inquiring about Vadille's weather like its what I care about. Am sure we'll be back before Drew notices we left.
******************************

We stop  at a restaurant. I shield my eyes with my hand even though the sun isn't that bright it's about 5.oopm,call me a bitch but the sight of the building hurts my eyes too. It must be a default setting of getting used to pretty things, say my reflection etc . It's a tall building with peeling paint and soaked walls with those white cotton like thingies. Even the name is peeled off. But he's staring at it with a sparkle in his eye that is should be reserved for Disney land.

"This is your favorite restaurant? What is it, the forties? " I ask not planning to eat anything. They could have cockroaches in their bugger. It's so freaking old.
"You wouldn't get it. Now. " He tells me, putting his arm around my waist as we walk in and I push the door with my foot. Kicking would have felt better. Its disturbing. Not his grip on my waist, I like that. Just that he put the "Now" so much later in his sentence the creeps are coming back.

We seat at the nearest booth to the door. Do I have to tell him that's weird. Bad things happen when you sit in a place like that.

"Come on there are more seats!" I point out at them and turn back to him wearing my puppy face hoping it works on him.

"You can only catch the fullview of the sunset here. " He argues.
I look up playing with my tongue like I had a piece of candy in my mouth and pretend to be thinking. Who am I kidding? It's the dream. Just that I figured it would be a fancier place with a reservation or something. But this place is so backward am sure the don't know about that and I can't believe my ass is touching their itchy chairs.
After we are all settled and staring outside through the surprisingly clean floor to ceiling window at the sun setting. It's spectacular. With the waterbody shimmering infront of it and all.

"Hi Troy and guest?  What can I get you newbie? " Asks a voice almost as fairly deep but mine but with more American accent. We look at the same time. Interesting. She has the hair too. The silver white hair, in a long plait and over her left shoulders. They must be related or sth. She's also weird looking, but visibly younger. She doesn't have those little sprinkles of wrinkles at the corner of her eyes when she smiles.

"Coffee. Black coffee is fine. You should come to my school or any other " I don't know why I added the last part I just have a blurting mouth. It's like a curse. In my defense my lips are bigger and sexier than I have ever seen. God must have known what he was doing.

"Me too. " Troy orders. I can see that he wants to laugh so bad. His face is turning a little red.

"Troy, this one's a bitch. Please don't bring her upstairs. " She says eyeing me from my head to toe.
"I don't do that anymore. Please don't hold it against her. She's outspoken like that. " He responds boldly. She then walks to another table. And I wait for her to go far enough. So I can get the hell out. As if I know where am going. I swear I want to cry. I feel used and stupid. So not only does he kiss girls and dump them he takes them to his room. Rumors have it, it's right upstairs.
