Buried trust

Chapter 28

"And? Do you know him?" What I just found out isn't good news. "Yes, I do." "Then tell me, who is it." "It is my french teacher." "How convenient, an old vampire who teaches French on a highschool." Olivia stares at the window. "Do not tell me that you have a lesson French tomorrow," Olivia says. "If you don't want to know I will not tell you." "Not funny, yes I assume." "Yes." " Do not enter that lesson." "Actually I was planning on skipping the lessons in the afternoon." "Is your French lesson then?" "No." "Then just act normal and tell your friends who he is." "Okay." "Except that Alex girl. It's better if she doesn't know anything." I nod. "Now get off my bed and go to your own room." Olivia laughs. Instead of walking away, she lays next to me. "I'm not going anywhere." "Alright. Then you have to come with me to lunch tomorrow. It's with Alex, Natalie, and Jenny." They haven't responded but I will convince Alex and Natalie to come. Jenny is the one I'm not sure about. "Okay, goodnight for how much sleep we can still get." Olivia turns around and I turn the lights off.

...

I wake up and Olivia is already in the shower. "Liv, why are you occupying the shower in the morning when you don't have to go somewhere?" I knock on the door. No response. I laugh and walk back to my room and grab an outfit. Today is the day that I have to face Mr. Johnson. Actually, his name is Christopher Ordeux. In the classroom, his name is Mr. Johnson. To bad for him we already know his real identity. Olivia walks out of the bathroom. I shoot an angry eye at her. Olivia burst out in laughter. "I'm sorry Mads. You weren't awake yet so I just showed first." "You know I have to school." "How late again?" "I'm supposed to pick up Alex at eight." "Then you have to hurry, it's almost eight." "I look at the clock and see that she is right." I run to the bathroom and take as fast as I can an shower. I quickly put on the outfit I chose and walk downstairs. Olivia made me a coffee and gives me my car keys. "Thanks, Liv." Olivia waves at me when I step into my car. "Three o clock lunch with my friends!" I scream and Olivia nods. The front door closes and I drive to Alex her house.

"Was about time," Alex says and steps in the passenger seat. "I'm sorry, Liv was in the shower this morning and I overslept." "Who is Liv?" "My cousin." "Since when do you have a cousin?" "Long story, I will tell you another time." We pull up at the school. I see Luke's car and I see that Niall came on his own. Andrew's car is also in the parking lot. I hope Natalie is also at school. I'm excited about lunch. We haven't had lunch with all of us in months. "Are we having lunch together?" I ask Alex. "Yes, and Nat. I asked her and she said yes." "Great." "Why did you send it in the group chat with Jenny. You know she isn't going to read it right?" "Why not?" "Because she hasn't texted me or you in a year." "I saw her a few weeks ago and I hope she comes." "Wait what?" "You heard me." "Yes, I did. Why didn't you tell me, or Nat?" "Just complicated things." "Yes, the same complicated thing as with your cousin." "Sort of. About my cousin, you will meet her. She is also coming." "Great, I love meeting new people." I know she wasn't sarcastic because it's true that Alex loves meeting new people. She is always open to new people. Take, for example, Ethan. I have to ask about that when we have lunch.

The bell rings and it's time for the first class. I hate that the first class is french. I never hated it but now I know that Mr. Johnson is actually Christopher Ordeux. It's terrifying knowing that he actually wants to use me for my powers. I walk into the classroom and don't see Mr. Johnson. I see that his stuff is here but he isn't in the classroom. Luke and Natalie are already sitting at a desk and Alex walks to them. "Natalie, Mads has a cousin." Luke his eyes stare at me and Alex. Natalie also looks at me with a weird stare. "You have a cousin?" Natalie asks me. "Yeah, and guess what, we are going to meet her for lunch!" Alex seems very excited and sits down next to Natalie and talks about how her weekend was. I sit down next to Luke. "Why did you tell her about Olivia?" "I just told her I have a cousin nothing more." I see relieve on Luke his face. "I do have to tell you something else." Immediately stress is on his face again. "About our mystery guy." "Tell me, I have to know." "I can't. It's too dangerous at this school for that." "Tell me tonight." "Tonight what do you mean?" "I can stop by your house with Niall. You can tell him too." "Does he have to come?" "Yes for your own safety." I sigh. Mr. Johnson walks into the classroom with his hands full of papers.

The French class was stressful. I could only think that he was Christopher Ordeux. It is almost lunchtime. I walk outside and see Luke, Niall, and Ethan talking. Seeing how their mouths move they're arguing. I quickly walk to them and they all stop talking. "What are you guys doing? It isn't a good time to have you guys fighting. Not after what I found out." Niall and Ethan are looking at me. Luke slaps his hand against his forehead. "You were going to tell us that tonight. Not now." "Yes, I'm sorry but I think that if we have to kill a very old vampire who you don't even know who it is, we should work together." "Tell us then. What did you find out this time?" Niall asks. "Do you want to know?" "Yes, I want to know." Niall is getting irritated by me. Now he feels how that is. "I had a vision the other day. That vision wasn't clear. So Olivia and I shared a vision and we saw the face." "Irrelevant, just tell us who it was" Niall is getting annoying again. "It's our lovely french teacher." "You mean Mr. Johnson?" Luke almost starts laughing. "Yes. I got to go somewhere so bye." I turn around and walk to my car. Alex is already there waiting for me. "What were you guys talking about?" Alex asks "Nothing important." We both step into the car and I drive to the Coffee Point.

Natalie is already there and I see Olivia waiting by the entrance. No sign of Jenny. "Mads, I didn't know if I should pick out a table of that you were going to do it," Olivia says and she walks to us. Alex her mouth falls open. "That's your cousin?" she whispers. I nod and chuckle. Alex reaches out to shake Olivia's hand. Instead of shaking Alex her hand Olivia gives Alex a hug. "Hi, I'm Olivia and you must be Alex," Olivia says. Alex nods and looks at her with big eyes. "Is that Natalie?" Olivia points at Natalie sitting at a table. "Yes, let's go sit with her," I say and walk inside to Natalie. Natalie introduces herself to Olivia and we all order something to eat and a coffee. We all sit there at a table for five but still no Jenny. The door opens and somebody walks inside. Every person who walks inside I look if it is Jenny. I give up and we all laugh at a joke Alex just made. "So girls, why did you start without me?" Jenny is standing at our table. Alex looks up and sees her. "Oh my gosh, you're real." Alex almost screams. She stands up and hugs Jenny. Jenny laughs and looks at me. "Sit down," Olivia says. "Do I know you?" Jenny asks. "She is my cousin." I jump in before Jenny starts getting aggressive or something. "Oh, I've heard about you," Jenny says and she sits down. "I'm going to the toilet, be right back," Alex says and she walks away. This is the perfect opportunity to tell them about Christopher. "So I have to tell you something, Alex shouldn't be involved in this so I will tell it very quick." "What's so important that it can't wait?" Jenny says. "Olivia and I found out who the vampire is." Jenny almost spits out her drink. "See it's important." Natalie looks at me with a questionable look. "I will explain Nat," I say. "Well hurry because I think Alex isn't going to be on the toilet for a longs time," Jenny says. "Okay, the vampire is an old one, from 1439 or something. His name is Christopher Ordeux. He is here to take me and use me for my powers. Only he changed his name so he wouldn't be found. Otherwise, I think Luke and Niall found out a lot earlier." "Who is it?" Jenny is getting impatient. "Mr. Johnson," I say. Natalie looks at me again. Jenny her eyes are the same as Natalie. Questionable. Only Jenny's are like, who is that person. Natalie's are more, why him? "What's up with Mr. Johnson." Alex is back and heard his name. "Just that his lessons are great," I say with a big smile on my face.
