Zoey

It has been three weeks since my brush with death. Now, here I was, finally walking without a wheel chair.

I was now High priestess of Tulsa House of Night, have the best friends I could ever want, and the best, most loving, strong, caring, hot, sexy, sweet, kind, wonderful warrior boyfriend in the world.

Did I mention he said he loved me?

The sentence made a thrill shoot through me. He loves me, he loves me, he loves me, he loves me! And he happened to be lying right next to me, looking as perfect as a god, well goddess in my case.

We were in our huge new bed in our new room fit for royalty that came with my title as high priestess. I was lying in his strong arms, snuggled up and cosy feeling safe from the world in them. Safe from Trinity, Domino and Kalona, none of which have been sighted since the night of their disappearance which made me a little edgy.

Stark stirred and I looked up to see his milk chocolate brown eyes sleepily look down at me. His blonde hair was ruffled and completely bed-head but I loved it, it made him look hot and cute. To add the emphasis on his hotness he had no top on, just boxers. His perfect chest was.... ughh my mouth watered.

He laughed, "Your beginning to drool, mind you I can't say that cause so am I. Morning gorgeous. How's your leg today?"

I wiggled it, "Fine, not even a little stiff." I beamed smiling at him.

"Well, I guess it's time for that date I promised you." He smiled and gave me a small kiss.

"Mmm, I guess it is," I said around the kiss. He'd promised to take me on a date three weeks ago when Cyrus, Trinity and Domino had almost killed me. Stark had killed Cyrus but the other two got away.

We were enjoying our little moment when our new friends decided to crash. Shane has cute messy blond hair and was huge, bigger than Stark but smaller than Darius, Travis has the same hair but is smaller and shyer but when you get to know him he's loud too, his non-identical twin Rusty is the same size as him but has a rusty colour hair, (hence the name) and they both have an accent like Stevie Rae's. Felix has short brown hair and is huge like Shane, and Ash has short ash blond hair and is the smallest of the group of them but bigger than all the girls. And right now they were charging through our door.

They made us jump as they ran towards us making a sound that sounded like 'arghhhhhhhhh'. They were obviously aiming for Stark so I moved back a little, I tried to move as fast as I could because they moved at lightning speed.

I was leant a few inches away from Stark now and they crashed into him, Shane first. They rugby tackled so he crashed backwards on the bed and piled on him. I laughed their childish ways, boys will be boys.

Stark was laughing and trying to break free from them and they all rolled off the bed onto the floor with a thud.

I laughed along with them as Stark stood up and sat back on the bed pulling me into his lap, probably so nobody would get him again but I was comfy anyway.

They all stood up and Shane was the first to talk, "Morning Z, how are you? Did we ruin your little moment?" He smiled mockingly.

I narrowed my eyes playfully, "Morning Shane, yes I'm fine and yes you ruined our moment."

He grinned, "Good, save it for when you're alone."

"We were alone." I retorted still playfully glaring.

He held up his hands, "Hey honey, we were only following orders." He smiled.

I raised an eyebrow, "And whose orders may they be?" I asked.

"The girls, they said go wake up Stark and Z and tell Stark to go away but Z stay there. They are—" Ash said but Shane interrupted him by getting him in a head lock.

Ash's head was now under Shanes arm and he was trying to break free from the steel band of muscle. I had to laugh watching the struggle, as I said before Ash was the smallest and Shane the biggest, the odds of Ash getting free were severely low.

"They said don't tell her why cause she'd freak out, so shut up short stuff." Shane laughed.

"Arghh, get off you dick!" Ash shouted.

We laughed, "What was that?" Shane said. "What did you just call me?" I saw him smirk thinking what he was about to do.

I rolled my eyes at him. "I said get off you dick!" Ash repeated.

Shane rubbed his knuckles in Ash's hair causing it to ruffle up more. "Arrhhh!" Ash exclaimed in annoyance and chuckled.

Everyone laughed as Shane carried on then paused, "Take it back." He said.

"No!" Ash laughed and Shane carried on.

"Come on guys, Stark too, lets leave this lady alone. Or face the girls." Travis said in his southern-fied voice.

Everyone immediately head towards the door, Shane did so with Ash's head still under his arm.

"Wait!" I called, "Don't leave! What are they gonna do?!" I exclaimed.

They ignored me just saying their byes as I sat hopeless on the bed. Stark was last out and popped his head around the door to say, "We'll talk soon, love you." He smiled.

"Love you too," I told him returning the smile.

He was yanked behind the door and I laughed. Felix's head appeared there now, "Later Z." He said.

I smiled at him and shook my head slowly, closing my eyes. The door shut gently and I fell back on my gigantic bed looking at my roof that had carved patterns in.

I closed my eyes, dreading what my friends were planning to do to me when the door re-opened.

"Z!" Stevie Rae shouted making me jump out of my skin. My eyes flew open and I felt several points on the bed bounce with impact as people sat on my bed.

I sat up and shuffled back so my back was against the wall, and I was sat on mine and Stark's pillows. "What's up?" I asked glancing around at excited faces.

Aphrodite, Shaunee, Erin, Stevie Rae, Cherry, Kim, Meg, Decima, Marley, Bailey, Hazel, Candy and even Damien were perched on my bed bouncing with anticipation.

"Well, we sorta overheard you say," Stevie Rae started.

"That Stark was taking you on a date!" Shaunee finished.

"So we thought you need to look hot," Erin joined in.

"And, Z honey, we are here to help," Damien explained.

"I already told the boys to sort out Stark." Kim informed me.

I raised my eyebrows, "Oh goddess." I rolled my eyes.

"Complain all you want, you're not getting out of a chance for me to give someone a make-over." Aphrodite's tone dared me to try.

I hung my head, "Fine." I said, "But where are we even going?" I asked, "We haven't even talked about it yet."

"You're going to this nice Italian restaurant I went to with my mum and dad and some of his work people. The meeting its self bored me to hell, but the restaurant food was good." Aphrodite said.

"I can't pay to go there!" I piped.

"It's not expensive, anyway Stark's paying." Aphrodite said.

"We can't expect Stark to pay for this!" I told them.

"Chill Z, Stark's good money wise. He's famous, he won some money from the summer games last year. He's practically rich for a few months." Erin said.

I sighed, obviously I wasn't getting out of it.

When I didn't answer they beamed, "Yay! Make-up time!" Kim said excitedly.

They all set in motion, going in and out the door carrying bags of clothes and boxes of make-up. Aphrodite brought in one of those wooden things you get changed behind, goddess only knows where from.

I tried on about 100 different outfits before they settled for one. When they did I was seated on a high make-up chair and they did up my face while others did my hair.

The girls gentle fingers through my hair felt nice and relaxed me.

"Wala! Finished!" Kim said.

"Oh my goddess we are geniuses!" Aphrodite said.

The twins high fived each other and everyone else smiled delightfully at me. Damien said, "Oh, Z hon you look beautiful!"

"Thanks guys." I smiled and stood to walk into the corner of the room to look in the full length mirror.

I stood in front of it and gasped under my breath. I had a floor length midnight blue dress on that clung to my body showing off my curves gently. It had sparkling sliver threaded through it making it look stunning. It had a slit at either side of my hip travelling from just above my knee to the floor. It was strapless and just under my arms to zip up at the back. On my feet I wore black stilettos that had lace criss-crossed up my legs to just below my knee. My black hair was up in a clip and I had a few little curls around my face where the hair was too short to tie back. My make-up was eyeliner and clear lip gloss and other stuff, it looked hot.

I had a necklace with a singular diamond on it that matched my small earrings.

I trailed my hands down my dress. "Oh," I breathed. "Thank-you guys, so much." I smiled at them.

"Our pleasure. Ooh! Stark's on his way, best be off!" Stevie Rae said, "Later Z, good luck!"

It was followed by lots of byes as they left me alone in my room.

I breathed out a deep breath. Then there was a small knock and the door opened.

Stark appeared, in a jacket with a white shirt underneath which had the top two buttons un buttoned, enough to make any girl drool. His hair was its messy hot look and his big chocolate brown eyes were shinning. He had jeans on too.

His breath hitched when he saw me and his mouth dropped open making me blush.

"Wow," He breathed, trailing his eyes down my body staring longer in some places more than others. "You look- amazing!"

My blush deepened, "Your not too bad yourself." I smiled.

"Yeah well, let's go my beauty," He held out his hand and I reached out to take it.

We walked out the building with lots of students eyes on us. Their eyes widened when they took us in. We reached the main gates and walked out, the night was just beginning and perfectly warm and starry.

Outside the gates was a limousine, on the back end were the words in smallish letters 'House of Night limo's'. It was deep black and shiny.

I gasped, "Wow!" I smiled and Stark squeezed my hand and opened my door.I stepped inside and sat on one of the long seats.

"This is the best first-date ever!" I laughed.

"Only the best for you," Stark replied giving me a kiss.

The journey wasn't too long because the driver knew where he was going. When we reached our destination I couldn't tell because the windows were blanked out, the driver opened our door and helped me out.

"Thank you," I told him.

"You're welcome priestess," He replied.

The restaurant was, well, fancy. Absolutely amazing! We walked through the glass doors and was greeted by an excited waitress, she obviously liked the look of Stark. Could she not see me here? Now I know how Bella from 'Twilight' feels.
