The new girl
Chapter One
"Carmilla? Carmilla dear it is time to wake up. You have skipped class four times this week and it is only Wednesday." Perry knocks on the door of the dorm that one Carmilla Karnstein resides in. She opens the door knowing that the raven haired girl never locks it. She skips over to the sleeping mass on the left side of the room as her partner, Lafontaine, follows close behind. She slowly reaches down and pokes the girl in slumber with one finger gently.
"Come on sweetie, if you don't stop playing hooky you are going to end up being expelled." Carmilla rolls over, effectively covering her head in blankets and her fluffy yellow pillow. She grumbles.
"No." Perry puts her hands on her hips before reaching down, grabbing the edge of the blankets and pulling with all she had in her. Carmilla rolls out of the covers, colliding with the wall. The curly haired ginger gasps and drops the blanket to the floor. She quickly gets behind her partner.
"Well now that you are awake I think you should know that your room mate has been missing for three days and there is some kind of yellow gunk on your floor along with a note." LaF looks back at the cheesy looking mess and their eyes get wide in excitement. They turn back to Perry and a pissed off looking Carmilla who is now sitting up in her bed.
"Uhm, you wouldn't mind if I took a sample of that would you? I mean for scientific reason I absolutely have to know what that is." Perry shakes her head.
"No, we are not taking that stuff back to our dorm." She takes LaF's hand and they leave the room. LaF pokes their head back in the room quickly.
"Oh and I have something I need your help testing something if you wouldn't mind." Carmilla puts a fist in the air. She then proceeds to put up her pointer and pinky finger. The short haired non-binary smiled widely. Like a child on Christmas they skip away.
"Oh my god, why am I friends with those people?" Carmilla rolls over out of bed and rests her head in her hands. She sees the note on the floor covered in the yellow goop. She huffs and walks over to the mess and picks up the note. Reading over it she is informed that her roommate has changed school, gone home, or something else. After the first two she stopped caring and threw the note away. She ends up at her wardrobe, getting dressed in her normal black leather pants and tank top. As she leaves the room she looks back at the empty bed that was her roommates and a she sighs in relief knowing that she was alone in her room now.
(Nine hours of skulking around later)
The girl in black walks into her room and is startled when she is met with green eyes meeting hers.
"Oh hi, you must be Carmilla. My name is Laura Hollis and I am your new roommate." The chipper girl holds her hand out, offering a hand shake. Carmilla looks down at the hand and walks right past the girl. She goes to the note she had crumpled up and thrown away. She opens it up to read at the bottom, 'You will be assigned a new roommate shortly'. She throws the note back in the trash and puts her hand on her forehead.
"Okay, why are you here?" Laura looks at her confused.
"I am your new roommate." She stands up and walks towards her obviously frustrated roomy. She puts a hand out to touch the girl and Carmilla pulls her arm away.
"Fine, whatever, I can deal with you. Just stay on your side of the room and I will stay on mine." She storms back out of the room.
"Uhm, well okay than, I guess the clean side is mine." Laura puts her bag on the stripped bed and begins unpacking.
(The next day after school)
"Carmilla, can you please stop videotaping me. I'm not really comfortable with that." Laura puts her hand out to try and cover the lens.
"What's wrong pumpkin? Are you camera shy?" Laura puffs up.
"No I just don't like feeling like I am being examined." She turns around on her bed and grabs a book. She flips to half way through the book and begins reading. Carmilla rolls her eyes at the smaller girl and walks over to the desk in the middle of the room. She sets the camcorder down on and sits in the chair in front of it.
"Hello viewers my name is Carmilla and we are here in my room where my lonely little roommate and I are at a stand-still." She rolls back and presents Laura as if she were a prize winning pony. Laura puts her book down to see what her biker looking roommate was doing.
"Carmilla what are you doing?" The punk rocker looks at her roommate, noticing that her flowing shirt with little owls all over it had fallen open a bit. She gets her eye full and answers.
"I am doing a video journal for one of my classes." Laura's mouth drops.
"You skip every single class almost every day and the moment they give you something that would help you be nosey you are all of a sudden the star pupil." Carmilla turns and looks back at the camera.
"No, this has nothing to do with being nosey. I just don't want to end up getting kicked out."
"Why?" Laura tilts her head a little to the side. Carmilla pauses, thinking about whether or not she really wants this girl in her business.
"I don't want to disappoint my mother. After my father died she put all of her focus on me and did so much just so that I could attend school." Laura puts a hand over her mouth.
"I'm so sorry for prying, I didn't know. Would you mind telling me what he died from?" Carmilla shook her head.
"Prostate cancer, he didn't want to do chemo so he died a year after being diagnosed." Laura stands up and walks over to her saddened roommate and puts a hand on her shoulder. Carmilla brushes it off.
"I don't need your pity. I just want to make my mother proud. This has nothing to do with you." The raven-haired girl roles back up to the computer. Laura turns and leaves the room. Before she leaves she looks back at Carmilla.
"I'm sorry." Then she leaves.
(That night)
Carmilla wakes up after from a nightmare, covered in sweat. She gets up and sits on the window sill looking into the night sky.
"Are you okay?" Laura startles her when she speaks from her laying down position. Carmilla continues to stare out the window.
"Yeah, I just had a nightmare." Carmilla answers. Laura sits up and looks at the girl in the window, she was so beautiful. She shook her head trying to remove the thoughts from her head.
"Do you want to talk about it?" Laura turns her body toward the beautiful woman in her room. 'No, stop this.' she thought to herself.
"No, just go back to sleep."
"I might have something to help with the dreams." Carmilla continues to look out the window.
"I don't want your help." Disappointed with the answer Laura lays back down. A few hours later Carmilla also got back in her bed and went to sleep. As soon as Laura heard the girls breathing go normal she got up and walks over to the girl in the other bed. She examines the sleeping girl, leaning over her. She inhales above the mess of black hair. She smiles, never smelling anyone who smells as good as this human. She stands back up and faster than normal human eyes could follow the girl was gone.
(The next morning)
"Hello viewers, I had the craziest nightmare last night. It wasn't really a nightmare as much as it was just weird. I was in my bed and there was a girl under it. She was crying. Then when I tried to get her to come out the room started to fill up with blood. She didn't even try to swim away." She pauses, really thinking about what it could have meant.
"Any way my new roommate is a pain in the ass. She is always here. If she isn't here she's off being a goody too shoes. She is always nagging at me about being clean." She leans in and whispers "Sometimes I make messes just to piss her off." She gives an evil smile.
"She is always nagging at me to do the dishes, I mean she never eats anything so she doesn't really have any but still." She pauses and looks behind her at the mini fridge. She turns back to the camera and smirks. Quickly she stands up and runs to the fridge, grabbing a box of chocolate cereal and soy milk that has 'Please do not touch, this belongs to Laura Hollis' written on it. She then grabs a dirty cereal bowl before bringing it back and siting down at the desk.
"She wants to bitch? Well then she can bitch about not having any more of her precious soy milk." She puts cereal in the bowel and starts boring the milk. She looks down and sees that the milk is actually blood.
"What the fuck? Are you fucking kidding me? What sick fuck does some crazy shit like this?" She steps away from the desk.
"Carmilla, are you okay? We heard screaming from our door and it sounded too angry to be anyone but you." Perry opens the door and examines the scene in front of her.
"Carm, why are you putting food coloring in your milk now?" the taller girl whips her head around and glares at her friend.
"Really, do you seriously think I would put food coloring in the milk just for the fun of it?" LaF now enters the room and stops dead in their tracks.
"Okay I know you are into some weird stuff and all dark and 'I am the night' but drinking blood with your cereal is taking it a bit far." They shake their head at the girl in leather.
"No, LaF I am not drinking blood now. This isn't even my milk this is Laura's." They all look at each other.
(Later in the day)
Laura comes into the room, met with the sight of her milk on the desk and Carmilla in her roll-e chair. She by passes the girl and sits down on her bed, throwing her bag behind her. The girl in the chair clears her throat, attempting to get Laura's attention.
"Do you want to explain?" Carmilla folders her arms in front of her chest and waits. Laura looks at her with a smile on her face.
"Ha! Gottcha! It was a joke, I tricked you." She grabbed her bag and started to rummage through it.
"Bull shit! Why the hell do you have blood in your milk container?" Laura continues to rummage through her stuff. Carmilla gets tired of watching her mess around. She snatched the bag out of her roommate's hands and Laura stood quickly.
"Okay fine! I'm a vampire! Are you happy now?" she starts to walk away and Carmilla stands in her way.
"What the hell are you talking about? You're not a vampire, vampires aren't real. Are you one of those crazy twilight freaks?" Laura tries to side step away from Carmilla and the girl stops her again.
"Hell no, you aren't going anywhere. I am going to call the cops." Before the girl could even reach for her phone they hear a scream come from outside. Carmilla grabs Laura by the wrist.
"What the fuck was that?"
