Well, this is my first fanfic and I cringe knowing that I wrote this. I am rewriting/ editing the chapters. Hoping that it is less cringe to read. Who knows maybe when I am more comfortable and better at writing I will come back and edit once more. Well, It's 2 am and here we go again. once again I am so sorry for the cringe. Ahhh sometimes I don't even know why I started this. low key this is what happens when there is not enough Draculaura and Clawd fanfics to read. lol
I began on wattpad but I really want to post my story here for other people to read. I'm just copying and pasting my fanfic here so if some of the "authors notes" don't make sense that is because I've done 16 chapters so far but decided to edit the whole thing. I've re-written the first four but I still have a lot more to do. I really don't encourage readers to go read the unedited ones on are simply not ready and are written so bad. they have major cringe alert. If you go looking for them I'm sorry lol.
Draculauras POV
Two hours.
I've been in the car with my dad for two hours listening to his road rage.
"Daddy, maybe you should have let uncle Vlad drive me to Booniversity."
"None of that Laura I am completely capable of taking you there myself," He scoffed.
"Well then please stop honking at the other cars! I don't want other monsters to think my father is crazy."
"I will stop honking if they knew how to drive like they actually own a drivers license."
Ugh, here he goes again thinking he was the best driver in all of Salem. I couldn't help but sigh and roll my eyes. I leaned my head against the window looking out at the forest path that covered the side of the road. Two hours of nothing but trees and grass. How much longer was it going to take to get there? I was growing impatient.
The sound of my dad cussing and fumbling with the radio made me turn my head. Yup, just as I thought he was complaining about the music once again. Typical old bat.
"What happened to all the good music?!" He hisses smacking the radio, "You kids need to learn what real music is," he said annoyed in his thick Transylvanian accent.
I rolled my eyes once again for the thirteenth time since we began our little road trip. Although I couldn't help but laugh a little. He did look funny stressing out over the music. I may be over 1600 years old but I always keep up with the latest trend. Music and the latest Celebrities are my specialties. I leaned forward to open up the glove compartment digging through the stack of CDs I've burned for him throughout the years with his favorite songs.
"How about I play one of your CDs I burned for you instead" I smiled at him. He returned the gesture with a smile.
"Thank you my sweet bat"
I suppose deep inside I knew that behind the road rage and the music bothering him was his way of hiding the fact that he was upset about me leaving. He was going to miss having his "little" girl around. But even little vampire girls have to grow up someday. We were on our way to Monster Booniversity it was located two and a half hours away from Salem. Away from the grips of the old-strict-always-sucks-the-fun-out-of-everything Dracula. For four years I may add. Four years that I would be away and eight semesters that I was desperately excited for. I was excited to get out on my own to meet new monsters maybe even make friends. I did feel sad leaving my dad and my uncle Vlad behind but I was ready to taste freedom.
It was a new semester at the Booniversity for all the newbies. My father wasn't excited about the idea of ghouls and mansters sharing the same buildings, but he was happy I was continuing my deaducation. I had decided to major in journalism first. It's something I have been interested in since I was young. I've been writing since I was able to pick up a pen. Thinking back to when I was a little girl I remember making up random questions to interview my uncle and he was always kind enough to play along.
During High school, I had joined a poetry club. That was about the most creative writing I was able to do there. My dad had made me go to an all vampire academy where everything was very traditional and old school. My hobbies were frowned upon by the vampire elders. I used to beg my dad to transfer me out to the new high school across town Monster high it was. I used to hear so many good things about it and even made a chart for him to see the benefits I would be receiving by switching me over but he never did.
"It's for your own good" my dad use to say. Was it though? If he only knew the horrible things that I experience in that wretched Vampire school.
"Laura, sweetie we have arrived," his thick Transylvanian accent snapped me out of my trance.
"Finally!" I cheered. Freedom is one locked car door away. Looking around the parking lot. I noticed many different monster unloading boxes from their cars. I guess the parking lot is full newbies.
"I wonder if I will make friends right away" I whispered to myself. Well, that's what I hope for. I know I can be very gullible and being a doormat was sort of my thing. High school left me with enough scars to know that much about myself.
"Draculaura, sweetie come help me with your stuff."
I looked over my shoulder and oh boy. Something about watching the big-bad-scary-Dracula struggling to hold two boxes full of shoes and clothes was funny enough to get a chuckle out of me. And yes I thought to myself a ghoul can never have enough clothes when it came to fashion.
"Coming daddy!"
I scurried towards him grabbing another box from the trunk of the car. I took out my cell to re-read the email with my dorm information. I've must have read it over one hundred times but I must admit that I was feeling a bit nervous.
"Building 8 room 136. Follow me, dad," I lead the way towards the building passing through the crowd of students. I noticed a couple sitting under a tree in the shade. How wonderful would it be if I met someone here? I ghoul can only dream. Once we reached the hallway where my room was located. I heard singing, whoever it was had a thick almost boo york accent and they were singing their heart out. They had a really good voice. Looking at the numbers on the doors I reached the end of the hallway. Room 136 this is my room. I take another listen and realized the singing was coming from inside. How exciting! Just the thought of my roommate being as cool as she sings I was ecstatic.
My dad cleared his throat making me aware that I've been standing in front of the door for more than five seconds lost in thought. I stretch my hand out to knock. I didn't even get to touch door before it swung open knocking me down. Instead, the floor was the one that got to touch me. oomph. Yes, this would happen to me on my first day. I force a grin on my face trying to hide the embarrassment of what just happened and look up to see a girl about my age...well age appearance. No, even better a werewolf! Amazing I thought to myself, she had gorgeous hair and her style was unique. Still, on the floor with a heavy box on my lap, I turn to glance at my dad. He was not amused. If anything he was probably upset that my roommate had knocked me down by opening the door or was it the fact that the old school bat was not very fond of werewolves. There was a whole feud between vampires and werewolves years ago. My uncle Vlad used to tell me stories about it but I never understood much. I never had a problem with werewolves if anything I wasn't very fond of vampires. They can be a very stuck up. I was too excited to meet someone new who was not a vampire for once.
"Whoops, sorry about that," She quickly apologized and extended her arm," sorry didn't mean to bump you with the door, I heard you coming up the stairs and well I got excited " she blushed. "My name is Clawdeen, Clawdeen Wolf I'm your roommate."
Once I was up on my feet I fixed my skirt pulling it down back in place.
I give her my biggest grin exposing my vampire fangs and I go in for a tight hug " Hi, it's very nice to meet a werewolf. I'm Draculaura daughter of Dracula" I pull back pointing my index finger towards my dad.
I noticed her yellow eyes growing big "whoa, Dracula like the-famous-scary-could-be-a-jerk-sometimes-no-offense Dracula?" She said nervously placing her hand on her other arm. "Nice to meet you, sir," she gulped averting her eyes towards the door.
I hate that my dad had that reaction on most monsters but when you been around for as long as my dad you hear stories and some are enough to keep you on your toes when he is around. It did not help that most of the older vampires didn't like to associate themselves with werewolves either and well vice versa. Feeling the awkward tension in the air I quickly thought of an excuse to get out the room.
"Hey, um, why don't you show me around campus?," I said hoping she would take the bait. I turn around to face my dad,"daddy you can leave the boxes on my bed. I can finish unpacking later," I quickly stood on my tiptoes and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"Laura, you cant ju-"
"Clawesome idea!" Clawdeen cheered not letting my dad finish his sentence. Good, she took the bait I thought to myself feeling relieved to leave the room. She perked up her ears and grabbed my hand pulling me out the door.
"follow me. "
we ran.
