When You're Strange

Chapter 4

After David ordered Marko to drop off a passed out Michael at his house, we all gather back at the cave.

"So, Y/n. Care to tell me how you entered my head and knew we were drinking vampire blood?" David asks, for once not wasting time with dramatics.

Okay moment of truth. Do I reveal that I'm a witch? Who am I kidding? What choice do I have? It's better than them assuming I'm a hunter or something.

"I'm a witch." I say simply and there's a moment of silence before Paul and Marko start laughing, obviously not believing me.

So I look over at the two men, and mentally say a spell to make them start ballroom dancing like Beauty and the Beast.

"What the hell are you two doing?" David asks, looking at the guys with a cocked brow.

"We can't stop. She's making us dance." Marko forces out as he tries to stop.

Finally I have them bow, and I ironically clap as they take their seats, glaring at me.

"You shouldn't doubt me." I shrug, getting comfortable in my seat on the couch next to Dwayne who chuckles a bit.

Meanwhile, David looks at me, wheels turning.

"You know what we were the entire time didn't you? And still you said nothing. Why?" David look me in the eye, his squinting in suspicion.

"What y'all do isn't really any of my business. I just wanted a fun night out and I got one." I explain, looking him in the eye.

Y'know, other than the fact that I was hoping I'd get somewhere with Dwayne at this point. But now that the guys know my secret, I think it's best I dip.

"Anyway, I've had my fun, so I guess I'll head out." I go to stand and Dwayne, surprisingly, grabs my wrist.

"But we haven't even shown you any real fun yet." He says, with a smirk, ignoring Paul's crude remarks about Dwayne trying to get laid.

"Y/n, stay." David says, talking to me in a warning tone like he does Star and I give a look that says, who the fuck are you.

"Look David, I said I wouldn't reveal y'all's big secret. But what I won't stand for is you or anyone else thinking they can tell me what to do. That might work for Star and Michael but you forget I'm much more powerful." I snap, before I can stop myself.

The cave becomes silent as I tell David off and David watches me with a smirk.

Still angry, I leave the cave to stand outside in the cold ocean air. I take deep, calming breaths before calming down enough to get ready to recite my spell.

"Leaving without saying goodbye?" I hear Dwayne's voice behind me. 

I turn to him with a genuine smile before my eyes start trailing his body.

I'm not sure who moved first but our lips lock and his hands travel my body, pulling me closer and my hands are tangled in his hair. I inhale his campfire, cinnamon scent as I kiss him harder. All too soon, he pulls back chuckling.

"You keep at it like that and I'll burn up." He teases, nodding over at the horizon where you can notice the sky getting lighter.

"Come back tonight." He says, with a small smirk as though he already knows my answer.

"I'll think about it." I reply, biting my lip.
