Chapter 1
My name is Ellie. I'm not your typical type of teenager. I have black hair, love black, love vampires, and if they were real I would want to be one. Today is my first day at Bathory high. I moved to Bathory from the small town of Consecon. Consecon was an okay place, but my family wasn't very happy there. We moved about 5 times before that. I have a step mom, dad, four step sisters, and a biological brother. My family is so messed up it's not funny. Sometimes I wish they would just go away. My mom and dad split up when I was 4, and ever since then my life has been hell, always moving, never making friends. This time was different I guess.
The day we moved into our house in Bathory, my step mom, Amanda, and my dad, Shaun, told me and my brother, Jake that they were going "house" searching, but really they were probably going to go and buy another house we don't know about and then we're going to move again. There was no way in hell I was going to move one more time. I'm 16 now, and Jake is 18.
Tomorrow would be my first day of Bathory high. I heard that there are a lot of people like me. Gothic, and love vampires! I couldn't wait. Today I was going shopping at the mall, well extremely small mall, but it does. I got off my butt and went to the mall.
When I got to the mall, I saw this really hot gothic guy. He looked at me and smiled. His smile was so perfect, so awesome, he was perfect, he was my Edward Cullen, and actually he was BETTER!!! BY FAR!!! He came over to me and put out his hand as if to shake mine so I shook his hand instead. He smiled at me again and said, "Hello my name is Vladimir, Vladimir Tod."
He sound like he was into James Bond, so old school, BUT AWESOME! Anyway I smiled back and said, "Hey Vladimir, my name is Ellie. I'm new here."
He smiled and said, "Cool. Where are you going to school at?"
I looked at him for a second, memorized by his gaze at me. He looked at me like I was beautiful; no one has EVER done that before to me! So I smiled and said, "I'm going to go to Bathory high. I start tomorrow."
He looked at me and said, "Cool, that's where I go."
I looked at him some more. He seemed different then everyone. I know everyone is different, but he was just, really different. He looked at me and said, "Is something bothering you?"
I looked up and said, "Oh. No, no. Nothing at all. Nothing is bothering me."
After I got home I went straight upstairs to tell my best friend, Freddy, about Vladimir. I started to talk to Freddy when he said, "I can't talk to you anymore. My girl friend won't let me."
I cried and cried, and when I could see again I said, "You can't let her control your life, and I was just going to tell you that I met a guy today, and I think he likes me."
Freddy replied, "That's good then. I'll tell my girl friend that and see if she will let me talk to you now."
I replied, "Well I'm going to go to bed. Goodnight."
Then I signed off.
I got changed into my pyjamas and went to bed hoping to dream of Vladimir.
