Hi guys! It's me, Ayesha, and I'm here with my first fanfic ever! Well, before I start with it, let me tell you something about it...
Basically, I got this idea from the famous and my absolute favorite series The Twilight Saga. Yeah, the vampire love-story. So, I thought of converting this story from Bella-Edward to May-Drew, but with a few twists. Firstly, there's gonna be some personality change. May is never going to lose her naivety and her cuteness. And Drew is never going to lose his arrogance and cockiness. And yes, characters are going to be different (Of course!). So, without any further delay, I present you the first chapter of My Bloodsucking Love-story.
Chapter 1: Arriving in La Rousse…
May's POV:
"May dear, take care of yourself. And please email me everyday. Also, do all of your chores properly. Help your Dad with his work. I'm expecting a lot from you. Take care of your Dad too," Mom said while wiping tears from her eyes and embracing me lightly.
"Yeah Mom. I will. You take care of yourself too." I said.
"Hey May, don't forget me. And yes, tell me when you get a boyfriend. I sure hope he's a nice one. Mature enough, unlike you," Max teased.
"Shut up, nerd! You don't tell me what to do!" I retorted while blushing a bit. Max can be such a pain in the neck. He's always boasting about his greatness (note the sarcasm) and taunting me. Stupid saucerman.
"May, I'll miss you," Max said softly. I knew he was trying to hold back his tears, and I was just as unhappy as him.
"I'll miss you too," I replied, while embracing him tightly. "Take care of yourself, saucerman."
"Hey!" Max protested, getting out of my hold.
"Okay guys, bye. I'll call you as soon as I reach. And lots of love," I said, shedding a few tears of my own. I settled in the cab that was taking me to the airport and continued blowing kisses and waving Mom and Max until they were no more seen. I sighed and stared out of the window.
Introduction? Hi, I'm Maybelle Victoria Maple. If you're wondering about the past embracing and goodbye stuff, let me tell you. You see, I'm moving away from my house, the one I lived in practically my whole life, with my mom, Caroline Maple and my geeky brother Max Maple. It's in the peaceful city of Petalburg. My dad, Norman Maple, lives in La Rousse city, which is a few miles away from Petalburg. We live separately because of a few reasons. Let not get into it. I'm moving over to La Rousse to attend a new high school. Sure, it was hard to say goodbye to all of my friends here, but, things had to be this way. So, I am now going to live with my dad. I haven't seen him in a long time since he was so busy with is work. He's a police chief. Chasing thieves, putting them behind bars, finding missing people, solving squabbles and those whacky sort of things. Living life with him could be…interesting.
The cab reached at the airport. I took my stuff with me, which wasn't really much. A big suitcase, that's all. I'm not really into fashion so much. I gave my passport to the security man, gave him my bag, and proceeded inside the room. While I waited in the room, I thought what it would be like living in La Rousse. The climate wasn't exactly sunny over there and I was used to living in sunny places like Petalburg. It was quite a cold place and I hate cold climates. I thought about my new school, what it would be like. Will the students there accept me? Will I able to make friends over there? I sighed. That just depends on what they will think of me. I am going to be a new student and as far I think, new students don't really fit in a group. I shrugged. Still, I had to try.
After what seemed like hours, the wait was finally over. I went inside my plane and took my seat. Luckily, it was a window seat, and I was thankful for that. A woman, who looked about forty, came and sat beside me. She had jet black hair with a few white streaks here and there. It was tied in a ponytail. She looked at me with her brown eyes, examining me. I began to feel uncomfortable as she scanned me.
She said nothing as she sat beside me. I looked out of the window. Soon enough, the air hostess's announcement was heard.
"Passengers, please tie your seatbelts correctly. Your mobiles should be switched off while you're on the airplane. In cases of emergency, your equipment is right below your seat. Let's hope it doesn't come to anything like that," she announced through the intercom. She gave us a few more instructions and soon enough, the plane was soaring up in the sky.
The lady beside me still said nothing. I shrugged. Maybe she's not a people-person.
A few minutes had passed by after we took off. The air hostess' were serving food. I was really hungry (I'm always hungry, and that's a fact that even I couldn't deny) so I took two chicken sandwiches and a soft drink with it. The sandwich was really good. After eating my meal, I relaxed back into my seat. We were somewhat close to La Rousse, so it shouldn't take much time now.
The lady beside me looked at me. "Hello, young lady," she said in a formal manner.
I wasn't noticing her, so when she greeted me, I was a bit startled.
"Oh, um, hello…?" I asked, stuttering a bit.
"Theresa. Theresa McCoy," she said, extending her hand towards me.
"Oh, hi, I'm May. May Maple," I said, shaking my hand with hers.
She didn't say anything after that. Weird. Guess she just didn't want to sound rude. Some character.
We finally arrived at La Rousse airport. I got off from the plane headed out to collect my luggage from the counter. After I collected my bag, I went out and found out that my dad was standing over there, probably to pick me up.
"Hi May. How are you? You sure have grown up to be a beautiful girl," my dad said, examining me. I have chestnut brown hair that end a little above my waist. My figure is slim and perfect (No bragging intended!), my eyes are beautiful and mesmerizing, and as blue as the ocean, atleast that's what my mom says and yeah, you could say that people used to have a crush on me. Now they cannot since I don't stay in Petalburg anymore, so there.
"…yeah," I responded, hugging him, not really sure what to say about that comment of his. He hugged me back, and after a little questioning, he led me to his car. It was a police car, afterall, what else can you expect from a police chief. I got in it and we drove away.
Soon enough, we reached at our house. It was… big. Not really big, but for two people, it was pretty big. I guess I could live in it comfortably. I stepped out of the car and walked and stood on the porch, while examining the area around the house. There weren't many shrubs and trees, since La Rousse is a cold place, but it was beautiful. There were some pine trees growing, and they were growing in an orderly manner, and there were some flower bushes too. They consisted of Camellias, Cyclamen and Hellebores. There were a few Witch Hazel shrubs too (A/N: Complicated names….). They really added to the garden's beauty. Oh… nature… beautiful nature. They weren't the flowers you usually see back in Petalburg since Petalburg was a sunny place and the flowers here weren't used to that kind of habitat.
"So…," My father began, "do you like your new house?" he asked, hoping I would say yes. I really did like it, infact, I loved it! It was beautiful and spacious, so it didn't really give me any other choice, but to love it.
"Yes dad, I do. It's really beautiful on the outside, I'm sure it's interior is even more beautiful. I'm sure I'll like my room," I said, optimistically. My dad nodded, muttering an 'I hope so' as we walked inside the house. It really was beautiful. The living room was spacious enough, well-set. After admiring a house a bit, I went inside to check out my room. It was good too. The walls were painted red and there was a painting of a red flower on the portion of the wall just above my bed. The bed was also spacious enough for me and looked comfortable. There was a red colored mattress on it. There were two side-tables on each side of it. There was a red chair beside the windows. The curtains were also light red and white, checkered. The side-tables had three drawers each and there was a bedside lamp and an alarm-clock on the right one. I hoped the alarm-clock would last for atleast a week or two, since I have a tendency of breaking alarm-clocks. The alarm-clocks don't usually last more than a week, so… I have to atleast try not to break them. And this one really looked sweet. So, moving back to the room, I loved it too. Guess dad knew about my so-called passion for the red color.
After observing the house a little more, I went into the bathroom to freshen up. After having a hot water and a refreshing bath, I changed into warm clothes for the night. As I mentioned before, La Rousse is a really cold place, and I hate cold. I'm used to the hot and sunny weather of Petalburg. So if I don't wear warm clothes, I'm pretty sure I'll catch a cold or something. I know I will!
It was already pretty late, so hurried down to have dinner with my father, who was waiting down for me. He had cooked the dinner today, since I was really tired out from the journey, so I was really grateful to him for that. He lived alone here before, so I hope that he will atleast have a little experience in cooking. I went and sat on my chair. Dad greeted me. He was probably waiting for me, so I could eat with him. Looks like he prepared… pasta. I liked pasta; so it was good for me. I removed some in my plate and started eating. Yum! It was delicious! I took second and third helpings of the pasta. It wasn't new to me, eating seconds and thirds, because I am a food lover.
"Hey dad," I said between bites, "This food is really awesome. I could never stop eating it," I said, stuffing my face even more.
"I'm glad you liked it, May," Dad replied, chuckling. He knows how I'm really obsessed with food. "And yes dear, don't eat too much; otherwise you'll end up in a bathroom with a tummy ache. Really May, its surprising you can still eat after already eating so much," he said, still chuckling.
I just looked at my plate, while grinning sheepishly. It really is surprising for some people, the fact that I can eat so much while still being in perfect shape. Back home, some people, especially girls, teased me and said things like 'You are such a shame to the female community' and stuff. I don't really mind that. Ignoring is the best thing you can do with people like that. Some food lovers, like me, envied the fact that I'm so slim, even after eating so much. I guess I'm one lucky female.
After dinner, I helped dad wash the dishes. He tried stopping me, saying that I should go to bed. I had school tomorrow, and it was my first day in Westwood High. I don't really know the reason behind name of the school, but then, who cares. So, anyways, I argued, telling him that I'll be just fine. It's the least I could for him, for making such a sumptuous dinner. So, he eventually gave up, knowing my stubbornness, while I smirked I victory.
After washing the dishes, I went to the bed and laid down on it. It was soft and comfy. I looked out of the window. It was a full moon night and the moon was shining brightly. The sight was fantastic. I wondered how the school will be like, especially the people over there. It will be a great day, I said to myself, and I was sure of it. Thinking about such thoughts, I drifted off to sleep.
And that's a wrap! I know, this chapter was sooo short, and I promise I will try to make my chapters longer in the future. So, what do you think about my idea? Please let me know my reviewing it. And let me know if there was some mistake with this chapter. I will try to update chapter 2 in 2 days. If you really want to read more of this story, please R&R!
