When I Joined Him (Tate Langdon FanFic)

Chapter 1: The House and the Boy with it

"Mom. This house is.. old! And really crappy! Why on earth would you want to live here?" I yelled at my mother.

"Honey, it was very cheap. Plus I hear there is a few kids next door who really need company. I stepped up..." She trailed up with a knawing look in her eyes.

"Oh, by the way.. there have been quite a few known deaths in this house... but there is no such thing as ghosts! I was just saying.. if you saw blood on the floor or anything..."

No wonder this house was so cheap. I rolled my eyes and went up to my new room.

My stuff was unpacked so I just had to get the stuff that I carried in. I turned on my iPod and started listening to music.

My dad called up, "Hey Violet! I am having a client over! No coming in here!" He never let me see his clients so this was nothing new.

"Whatever." I blasted my music leaving the door wide open.

I sat there for a good hour until I heard a voice, "You should really listen to better music."

I sat up extremely quick. "Who are you? Why are you in my room?"

He had a scary look on his face. "I'm Tate. I'm one of your dad's clients."

I looked at him. Blonde curly hair, dimples, great smile, brown eyes. I have to admit, he is gorgeous.

"Oh, I'm not supposed to see his clients."

"Well, our session is over so... I'm over as your friend." He gave me a straight smile.

I laid back down and turned on my music.

He came over and sat on the bed, criss cross.

"So, what are we gonna do?" He asked.

I looked at him, "I don't know. I hardly know you." He grabbed my hands.

"Stop! What are you-" He pulled down my sweatshirt to my elbow. He shook his head.

"Why would you do this?" He asked. I looked at the scars on my wrist.

"I was depressed okay. I stopped."

I grabbed my headphones but he pulled them out of my hand.

"Don't. I wanna talk." I was getting tired of him.

"Well I wanna listen to my music now leave me the hell alone!"

That's when my dad walked in. "Tate? This is why my clients go through the front door. Please get out and leave my daughter alone."

He gave a smile. "Yes sir. Bye Violet."

I shivered when he said my name. "Bye."

-Next Day-

Today I started school. Yay.

Not exactly what I want to do but, hey! Who cares!

I walked past a girl and her boyfriend making out.

I whispered, "Get a room." But I am guessing the girl heard me because she stopped and looked at me.

"Uh, who are you? Sleez bag." I walked toward her.

"Well, I'm Violet. And thanks for the compliment."

She pushed her boyfriend away squinted her eyes at me. She began to move toward me.

"Are you getting smart with me?" He picked up her hand.

She went to slap me. I waited for the impact that never came.

My eyes were shut and I turned away. As I waited for the slap, I was confused.

Why was it taking so long? Why do I feel the same?

I heard a "Hey! Whoah! Wait!" And then a scream.

"What's going o-" I looked to see Tate.

Everyone that was around us was gone. "Tate?"

"Hey Vi. Is it okay if I call you that? I don't care. Vi. Haha."

"Tate, where did everyone go? What happened!?" I started to panic.

How did he make all this happen? How did he even get here? What is going on?

"Chill. It's okay. They all went to class that's all." I shrugged and nodded.

"So, wanna go get ice cream?" He asked looking so cute and sincere.

"I have to go to class! I haven't even eaten breakfast!" I stressed.

"Oh it's your first day. No one will worry about you. Come on." He grabbed my hand and lead me to his car.

And, we went.
