Brown Paper Bag
By: RavenPhoniex
a.n. / I wrote this because of certain things happening around me lately that are somewhat beyond my control. Now please keep in mind that this is rated M for a million reasons and not all of this is based off my life, just the basic plot. Cool beans? Awesome, let us begin!
Chapter 1: 365 days
Vasilissa and I were the best of friends; she was a moroi, beautiful and elegant. She descended from one of the most pristine families in the royal court; the Dragomirs. I was the procreation of Abe Mazur and Janine Hathaway, two of the most feared names in the vampire world. Now, after 12 years of knowing her, it was time to say goodbye. I gave her a giant hug.
"Rose…I'm so sorry! I can't believe they didn't…" she was racked with sobs as she recalled the event that had just played out. I was assigned to Christian, the pyro she dated a year back. Her guardian was Eddie. The explanation being that I was too irresponsible and Christian could better handle my rough attitude and tendencies. Eddie would be gentler towards our new queen. Now I was waiting outside her room, trying to pass a security inspection. Chris stood in front of me as –finally- we were allowed inside of her quarters. She saw me coming and through a bag under the bed.
"Hey," she stood up, stumbling as she did so.
"Hey," I wasted no time in hugging her, despite how awkward she was being. She smelled like musty grass and urine.
"How's Chris been treating you…uh…?"
"Rose,"
"I know your name," she insisted, looking away. Sure she did.
"He's been fine; he stays in his room I stay in mine."
"He was never so calm when he was with me," she mused.
"Well, he's calmed down a lot and we don't have much opportunity to talk he distances himself from me as best as he can. Except breakfast…he holds that dear for some reason."
She nodded.
"I miss him," it was short, matter of fact.
"Oh," I looked over Chris' way to see him flipping through the music in his iPod. He hadn't heard. "So…what's in the bag you threw under your bed." She didn't bother answering me; she looked around frantically, before throwing on a grin.
"Can I show you the rest of my castle?" she didn't wait for an answer, she literally grabbed me and dragged me down the half. She showed me the rose gardens and the fountains, it was beautiful and soon I'd forgotten all about the brown paper bag beneath her bed.
