Fangs and Hearts

lil' old Bessie

I wake up by the sound of my alarmclock which just has been used for the first time since my first day in high school, since I never really cared what time I would wake up. Today was different, today I might have a chance of running into Elijah again if I go to school around the same time every normal student does. 

I take a quick shower and brush my hair thoroughly. I put on my favourite black top that I designed myself with a logo from In This Moment (my favourite band) on it  and my black jeans. I quickly grab my black vest and I put some mascara on my whimpers. Before I leave I drink a bag of blood without really paying attention to what kind it is, and I  step into my bright red doctor Martins. Only when I walk out the door I remember I forgot my phone, my bag and my wallet. And so I head back. When I get my pfone I notice a message.

unknown number:

hey it's Elijah, I desided to go to school with the bus today, wanna meet up at the bus stop?

O my god! Oh my God! O-MY-GOD! Why, How, When did he get interested in me? This is the single best thing in my life, appart from that time when Gwendolyn got a F for five classes and she got grounded for two years. 

I change unknown number to Elijah and text him back.

you:

Yeah sounds great! What time?

Elijah:

'Round 5 past 10?

you:

Sounds great, I'll be there.

Elijah:

See you there! :)

Oh crap! If I want to catch that bus I'll have to get to the station in thirty seconds. Oh well I'll be able to do that.

When I get in to the busstation I am just in time, before I step in I have my doubts. But not for long since my thoughts were rudly interrupted by the bus driver shouting

'Are you gonna get in?'

'Yes, yes, just give me a second.' I don't know why but getting in a bus seems kind of scary,all those people together in a tiny space, it's sorta disgusting.

'Lil' old Bessie Ain't gonna bite, y'know?'

'Bessie?'

'The damn bus, now get the hell in or go home, litlle girl!' Okay, that was rude.

'I am not liking the way your talking to me.' I say while I am putting on my scary face.

'Alright Alice, why don't you get in the bus and I'll get ya back to Wonderland.' I step in the bus and towards the busdriver as I whisper to her.

'You don't know what I am capable of, there is nobody here besides us.' I put my hand around her neck and tighten my grip. 'No idea.' 

'You think you can take me, Alice?' She asks in a mockingly way. I am about to strangle her when somebody else steps in, and I losen my grip, smack some money on the counter and take a seat somewhere in the back.

When the bus stops I look around, I can’t see Elijah anywhere. I look on my phone 9:50, I geuss it’s kinda early. When school is about to begin and I’m still waiting I decide that I should call Elijah,
Beep
Beep
Beep
The phone number you are trying to reach is not available,  please leave a message after the beep.

Wait, he’s not picking up? This hurts, why is he not picking up? Does he even want to meet me? You know what, screw him, I don’t need him. I put in my earplugs and walk to school in a slow pase, I’m late anyway.

It’s a boring morning until our maths class starts. As Miss Faberwire welcomes us in our class she says
‘Today we will welcome a new student to your class, mister Haleming.’
A new student? That’s unusual.
A hum of children whispering to each other is beginning to form a loud sound of children almost screaming to each other. Miss Faberwire is desperately trying to calm the class down, but everyone knows that that will not happen. It’s a complete chaos and pencils and pens are flying through the air until we hear a knock.
‘That must be mister Haleming!’ Miss Faberwire sighs relieved.
I’m smelling that wonderfull smell again, the one I smelled when I bumped into him. I don’t dare to even think his name, what if I faint by the amazing thought of his dreamy beautiful eyes, his soft pink lips, his strong jaw line, and his muscles holding me in a firm but soft hold and never letting go. Wait, no get it together!
The door opens.
A foot steps into the classroom,
Wait..
Followed by blue jeans under a black T-shirt with the Nirvana logo on it,
What!
Followed by a strong jaw line pink lips, black straight hair, dreamy eyes and strong muscles,
The new student is Elijah!
What the hell, I look at him as he looks at me. He has a smile on his face which turns into a frown when he sees the expression on my face, I’m not smiling, I’m not happy.
“Alright,” our intense stare is broken by Miss Faberwire. “let’s put you on the empty desk in the back, next to Elizabeth.” I am really starting to despise Miss Faberwire. Elijah walks up to his new assigned desk. Miss Faberwire starts talking to Elijah but he’s not paying attention, he’s just staring at me, and I stare back. When Miss Faaberwire starts with the lesson, my phone starts vibrating, it’s a text from Elijah.

Elijah:
What’s wrong?

You:
I thought we would be going on the bus together?

He just stares at his phone for a minute and then he starts to write.

Elijah:
I’m sorry,family business.

You:
Your brother?

Elijahs face froze straight for a second before he replied.

Elijah:
Let's talk later OK?

I look at him as he smiles back, but I'm just worried. I know it is wierd to worry about some guy you've met a view days ago, but with Elijah, I can just feel a conection. I know it's tacky and used a lot before, and you're probably thinking
'Wow, is this the best they could come up with?'
But let's be honest here, I am a witch/vampire named Elizabeth. Don't worry you'll get used to it.
