Chapter 3

~Zayden~

I entered the house to see a tuxedo waiting for me. I literally felt my jaw hit the floor as soon as my eyes landed on it. Shannon placed a hand on my shoulder and said. "You have to look nice for this dinner, Zayden. Plus there is going to be a lovely girl there wanting to talk to you."

I looked at Shannon from the corner of my eye. She has to be joking right? I mean what man or Creature would be caught dead wearing that horrible thing? No pun intended. I turned around forcing her hand off my shoulder. "Is she lovely because of the scent of her blood or just in general?"

The vampire tore her eyes away and grumbled underneath her breath. "Both, but mostly the blood."

I shook my head and smiled in amazement. Such great influence I'm receiving from my vampire 'mother'. I glanced over my shoulder at the penguin outfit and sighed. It's just one night and it's not like I'm going to have a stroke wearing it. Well, maybe.

~~

I started to choke when I saw who opened the front door. It was the Shape-shifter. Damn. I didn't even know her name and I already hate her. Just for one night, a few hours, then I'm home free. The girl starred back at me with wide eyes, before they narrowed and her face grew furious.

Oh, boy.

She opened the door wider for us to walk in and as I was passing her I noticed she stuck her foot out. I simply passed through. Advantage to being a ghost by the way. I looked behind me and her face was in shock, I'm pretty sure it was because I didn't fall.

A arrogant smirk arose on my face. "Nice to met you too."

~~

We were all seated around the table. I kinda laughed when I saw it, it was a round table. You know like knights at the round table. Wow, I just sounded like a loner and have to humor myself. I shivered at the thought.

When I looked up from the chicken on my plate, my eyes met a very evil looking Calleys'. I learned her name when there was all that introduction crap. I winced and started poking at my food. I heard a voice and guessed it was Calleys' mothers. "So how do you like your new school so far?"

"It was good, but I had a run in with a panther." I smirked when I heard a scowl across the table. I heard her father sigh.

"Is that true Calley?" Her mother said in a scary voice. Which I like to tell you was not lovely at all or polite in any way, shape, or form.

"No. Another Shifter took my personal form. Yes you idiot!" Calley answered with sarcasm dripping from her voice. Her eyes widened when she realized what she said. "Sorry-"

"No. Your grounded. Sorry about that. So what's it like being one of the most famous Vampires in the world?" Oh, shit. Why did she ask that question, we will be here eternity. Even though that will not effect me.

~~

After dinner was done Calley's mother wanted her to show me around the house, Calley responded with every cuss word in the English dictionary. I chuckled when she did that. I guess we are a little bit alike.

She showed me around the house and when we got to the last room she had pulled my arm and slammed me against the wall in the room and quickly shut and locked the door. I looked around and smiled at her. "A guest bedroom. An excellent choice."

She scowled and her voice held a lot of anger in it. "You shouldn't have done that!" She pushed on my body harder and forced me into the wall. I felt my heart beat go faster, but that is beside the point. I'm just fed up. Yeah, that's it.

I knew my eyes spoke fire and I twisted out of her grasp and switched positions. Now I was the one hovering above her and she is against the wall. I pressed my body closer to hers and put my hands on either side of her head.

I heard her breathing hitch. I smirked. "You know I wish that I did something worse, to late now."

I suddenly felt my right hand go through a weird material. I stole a glance upward and my eyes widen in shock. My hand and wrist had went through the wall and now I couldn't get it out. Well, shit. I looked back now at Calley and the same anger was there. I had to distract her from my hand. How the heck should I do that?

Then a thought came to mind. Well it is worth a shot. I pushed my body closer to hers and I felt her slightly shift from under me. "Hey get off of m-"

The next thing I know is that my lips are touching hers and we are kissing. I instantly felt her relax and saw that she closed her eyes. I couldn't help but kiss her more deeply. I brought both my hands down to her hips, not caring that my right hand was free, and started to lick her bottom lip.

She granted access and I could faintly hear her moan against my lips. I stopped and pulled away instantly. She was still in a daze and I smiled. The kiss had felt right and I didn't want it to end, but it had to.

I didn't say any more words to her and left her house and started to jog back to my house. What the hell just happened?

~~

I laid back into my bed and I sighed. I mean I have kissed girls before hers was just different.

Yeah, it was different because your hand was stuck in a wall.

Shut up, conscious. I turned around and faced the blank wall of my bedroom. It is a normal Fantasy girl. Who wants a bet that we both will forget about it in the morning? I smirked and replayed the dazed look on her beautiful face. Okay. I admit I like a girl that I just met today.

Alright happy?

Hey guys. This was more of a filler chapter. But it is the chapter that will set up the rest of the story. I'm sorry that it is short, but my co-author was bugging me at school to get it done. So I did! Happy? So you know what to do and I quote from TheIslandOfSicily. "PASTA!"
