As much as I hated to I moved in with the Forces when we returned from Italy. The only good part was being able to see Jack everyday and have him close. I don't know why I feel so connected to him its like a beacon drawing me to him...his lush green eyes...his intoxicating scent that I want to wrap myself in like a blanket...his ever so tone body..."Umm his body" I thought.
"Care to share Ms. Van Alen" the teacher said
"Um...I...Sorry...What was the question?" I said
I was in chorus...daydreaming yet again how it would be to so close to him. Have his hands on my body and his kiss on my lips. I totally forgot about doing the assignment he set for us. "I see." said Mr. Olsen "Just start with warm-ups please". Mr Olsen was one of my favorite teachers. He was a short, plump man in his late forties with balding brown hair. He was the only teacher who seems to get me to focus.
Thank God this was my last class! I was so tired. Even though I moved in with the Forces Charles I was still able to train with Lawrence. Lawrence told him I should know how to protect myself and Charles agreed since in his words "She does need all the help she can get since she's only Half vampire" with a smugness about him. He still hates me for well just being born. Lawrence thought it a good idea with the silver bloods back but I think it has something to do with me living with Mimi."I'd rather take on the silver bloods than be anywhere near Mimi" I said. Lawrence just laughed.
Lawrence took my training up a notch. We are now working on my fighting skills along with everything else. For the last three weeks he has been teaching me different fighting styles: Ta-Kwon-do, kickboxing, fencing, even some yoga. He said the yoga would help me be more flexible plus it helps me relax. I wasn't that into it at first but it's not so bad. Actually I've gotten really good.
"You're a fast learner...I am so proud of you at least now I'll know you can protect yourself."
"I guess I just have good genes." I said smiling. I love when my grandfather is pleased and happy. I hate to have him worry for me.
"This will be our last Lesson...I have taught you everything I know but I still want you to practice on your own time and don't forget to feed regularly to keep your strength up."
"Does it have to be? I am just getting to know you. Please, you can come up with something┘." He cut me off mid-sentence and said, ⌠I love you to but school will be resuming from the winter break and you'll have your studies. Plus my lovely granddaughter you're ready"
It was getting late so I said my goodbyes and kissed him on his cheek. I went outside to check and see if my cab arrived when there he was waiting on me. And it was none other than Jack Force.
