"Mom, please hear me out.You have to take us out of our first period."I was begging and pleading to my mom.I wanted nothing to do with those guys.It sucks because I literally just met them and I was really starting to like Stokeley.
"Summer, I already said no.There's not enough room in any of the other classes.Please give me some time, I'll see what I can do.But, I can't make any promises."I nodded and became even more anxious.I got in the car and texted Maria and Laila.
S🤍 - she said that she can't do it.we have to stay in that class until another class empties out.
M💙 - come on, man.im not tryna get bit today or any other day by accidentally pissing one of them off.
L💚 - why don't we just avoid them?
S🤍 - that is highly impossible.their vampires, they could easily find us.
M💙 - fuck it, we're just gonna go to class and act like their not even there.im not gonna let them scare me out of my class.just ignore them if they try to talk to us.sounds like a plan?
L💚 - yeah, im with that.summer?
S🤍 - yeah, let's do it.
My nerves were everywhere at this point.I didn't want to see Stokeley, but then again I did.I just wanted answers.
We arrived at school and I felt my heart speed up instantly.I got out of the car with my mom and followed her into her office.
"Honey, you can go and meet up with Maria and Laila.Why are you following me?"My mom asked, curiously.
"I don't know, mom.I'm just nervous about talking to the new kids again, that's all."I lied.
"Well, don't be, honey.I'm sure they love you already.Go on and head to class, the bell is going to ring in 5 minutes.I love you, have a good day."My mom hugged me and kissed my forehead.I smiled at her and walked out of her office and into the main hallway.
I was looking around cautiously for any of the guys.I turned around for a second to look behind me until I came into contact with someone.
"I'm so sorry, let me help you."The person knelt down and started to pick up their things with me.They had a hood on so I couldn't really see who they were.
"It's fine.I got it."The voice sounded super familiar for some reason.They looked up and I saw those vibrant red eyes from yesterday.It was Trippie.I screamed and fell back onto the ground scooted myself away.He smiled with his fangs out and that was all it took for me to get up and run to my first period.I ran into the classroom and shut the door behind me.All eyes were on me.I sped walked to my seat in the back beside Maria and Laila and sat down.
"Girl, where were you?I was texting and calling you this whole time!"Maria whispered, angrily.
"I was with my mom and then I ran into Trippie in the hallway.He had his fangs out and his eyes were red, just like yesterday."I said, frantically.They both looked at me and then at each other.
"Its okay, we have to stick together now.This could turn into something dangerous."Laila said, reaching over to pat my shoulder.I breathed out and sat back in my seat.I put my head down until I felt a presence in the seat beside me.It was Stokeley.
"Summer, can we please talk?"I looked up at him and he looked - sexy, just like yesterday.I knew that he was a vampire, but for some reason, he didn't scare me as much as Trippie did.
"What do you have to say?"
"I know what you heard and saw last night and I really didn't want you to see that.I was trying to tell you my secret before Trippie interrupted us.He is a very dangerous guy, stay away from him.You need to remain a mortal.You don't want to be like me."Stokeley had sympathy in his eyes.
"I actually just saw him in the hallway."I spoke up.He shot his head up at me.
"Are you okay?Did he hurt you?"He began to examine me.I laughed and pushed his hands away.
"I'm fine, Stokeley.He didn't hurt me."He looked at me and smiled.
"I'm glad.I don't need anything happening to you, especially now that you're under my protection."Stokeley stroked my chin with his thumb and smirked at me.He was so perfect in his own way.
"Wait, what about Jahseh and Isaiah?Are they vampires, too?"
"Unfortunately, yeah.Trippie and his ugly ass girlfriend decided to throw a party and invite us over and get us drunk and then take advantage of us and that's how this happened."I felt bad for them.They didn't choose to be vampires.Trippie and his girlfriend need to be stopped.
"How are you gonna get him back?He can't get away with this."
"I don't know yet, but we have to figure something out and fast."
"I'm with you every step of the way."Stokeley looked at me and smiled,"Thanks, beautiful."He took my hand into his.
"No problem."
I was invested in getting revenge for my new friends, I don't what it would take.
