Chapter 2

It has been about two weeks in a half since Vee and Edgar have become boyfriend and girlfriend and while keeping their love in the dark, from their friends and parents. The two lovers been seeing each other behind Poppy and Bridgets back in school by making a good excuse on going to the bathroom or pretend to be sick from eating bad lunch, so that way no one will be suspicious about their recent activity.

At home in their neighborhood, both Vee and Edgar would sneak out of their homes and hang out at the park and have some alone time kissing one another, and enjoy the great sunlight and asked each other serious questions. Currently now the two were in parks basketball court playing one on one, while having a discussion about their very first official date night as Vee wanted Edgar to pick the place.

"So I was thinking that we should go to the movies. You could pick the movie that you want to see." Edgar suggested while passing the ball to Vee.

"Oh that sounds spooktacular Edgy." Vee said using Edgar's cute nickname that she came up with, as Edgar blushed deeply when hearing that nickname.

"I figured that you might like the idea my little fang girl." Edgar said giving her a wink.

"Haha. So um when do you want to go to the movies?." Vee asked before taking the chance to shoot the ball into the basket.

Edgar jumped up and grabbed his basketball before the ball could even reach the goal, and then started dribbling and took a three point shot but that's when Vee used her vanmpire speed and flew up to get it and land down with a grin. She stick her tongue out playfully as she jumped made the ball go through the basketball net. Rolling his eyes after seeing his girlfriend showing off her vampire skills and used to her advantage. Edgar loved when Vee uses her vampire powers on special occasions such as visiting him at night to his room, by turning herself into a bat or speed run when doing a one on one basketball game with each other. Yes sir, he loved everything about Vee even though she's different from other girls but that's what Edgar loved about her the most.

"I was thinking that we should go to the movies say...this Friday night." Edgar said seating down on the ground to get some air through his lungs.

"Oh goody!. What movie are we seeing?. Is it that new Marvel movie called Captain Marvel!?." Vee asked with much eagerness as she was a die hard fan of Marvel.

"Yeah!. That's the movie that we're watching Vee. I heard it's going to be cool." Edgar said taking out his Gatorade bottle and drank.

Seating down to join her lovable boyfriend and enjoy a good break from playing basketball. Vee already thought on the second date night as she had the best one and had just enough money in her vampire piggy bank, and automatically knew that Edgar was going to defiantly love her turn on picking dates. A thought accrued in the young Vampire girls mind as she forgot their were obstacles in their way and needed Edgar to figure out what to do before they can be together. Edgar saw the worriedness on her pale face and know exactly what's on her mind and already had the answer to the solution.

"You're probably wondering how are we supposed to leave home to go to the movies, without either your parents, my mom, and my sister from finding out that we're are a thing huh?." He asked and got a quick nod from Vee.

"Yes. What should we do Edgar?. Our parents and your sister won't allow us being together because we're dating." Vee explained in utter sadness and felt Edgar's hand on hers and looked up at him, seeing a warm smile upon his face.

"All we have to do is for you to sneak out of your room by going through your window and I'll walk out in the back door of my house." said Edgar as it made the young Vampire girl smile back with clear worry. "And besides theirs nothing wrong about interracial dating Vampirina. This is one of things that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr had fought for and damn it, I'll refuse to let his dream to become in vain." He told her as he showed Vee on how proud he was about his black heritage and strongly respected the Civil Rights movement era and it's leaders. Feeling so much better and happy to hear those words coming right out from her lovers mouth, she went over and kissed him sweetly on his lips and hugged while doing so.

The kiss was broken up when the two were satisfied with the kissing and looked into each others eyes and got up to resume playing. After a few more hours of playing basketball with each other the two went home together holding each others hands, and continued like that until they saw their homes and quickly let go of each others hold. The two eventually separated and went inside of their homes and get ready for their first date night. In Peepleson household seating down at the kitchen table reading her book and doing some extra credit homework assignments. Poppy had heard her brother coming back inside from playing basketball with whoever in which she have no knowledge of who he played with, as he came into the kitchen humming his favorite tune while going through the fridge.

Poppy raised her eyebrow in curiosity as to who Edgar been seeing that got him humming or singing Bobby Browns Every Little Step music. She wondered what girl for the past two weeks have made her little brother all love crazy, and not once figured out who was the mystery girl is as Edgar have not once mention her when she is around him. Their mom once told her that when she was her age, both her and their dad kept their love on the down low from their friends and family until they graduated from school. The thought of keeping something this big from your friends and family just made Poppy go insane and wanting to know badly, and demanded to know whose the girl that's been messing with her brother.

"So tell me something Edgar, have you been seeing a cute girl lately?." She asked before closing her textbook down.

Edgar pop his head out of the fridge when getting what he needs and closed the door back, and then walked over to the table to set the bag of bread and sandwich meat down. "First off that's none of your business Poppy." Edgar began while fixing his triple sandwich before continuing. "And second is why can't I come home happy and sing some Bobby Brown lyrics huh?. What's wrong you don't like Old School R and B Sis?." He asked Poppy before going back to the fridge to grab the mustered and a slice of cheese. Already feeling herself getting irritated from her brothers smartness, Poppy managed to calm down and continue on with their conversation without having to sibling fight.

"The reason why I asked you samrt ass is because you've been acting all lovey dovey in the last two weeks, and I just wanted to know as your big sister. Whose the girl that got you wrapped around in her finger?." Poppy asked once more again as Edgar went back to adding more to his sandwich. Basically prepared for Poppy's nosey nose in his business as their mom already had that covered since she's been digging her best to find out, but Edgar was making sure she won't find out and just leave it at that.

"Like I told you before Poppy. That's none of your business and so shut the hell up about it." Edgar said finishing making the sandwich.

"Look here you little hoodlum. I have a damn right to know what tramp is dating my dum ass of a brother of mine!." Poppy yelled the last part of her sentence as she stood up at him, with anger on her face while shooting daggers right at him.

Edgar just took his eyes off his sister and took the leftover bread and the other food back into the fridge, and then grab a can of coke soda and went back to get his sandwich. Then he looked up at Poppy and sticked up his middle finger at her, and walked off from the kitchen and straight to his room to eat his healthy meal. "Asshole." Poppy said going back to his seat and resumed back to her extra credit homework assignments and won't rest until she finds out whose the girl that's been messing with her brother, even if it means following his ass from school to anywhere.

"Sooooooo Vee where are you planning on going tonight buddy?." asked the light blue friendly ghost named Demi who wanted to know so much.

"Haha, Demi. I'm not saying a soul. I cross my heart and hope to live. And besides it's not that big of a deal." said Vee who was laying down on her stomach as she was on her bed, searching through the worldwide web on her Transylvania laptop. "You know it's very rude to be snooping on someone's shoulder when the person is doing something on the internet." She told Demi with a stern eyebrow raise while lowing the screen down. Demi flew back with a nervous chuckle while rubbing his head in shame.

"Oh I'm terribly sorry Vee. I didn't mean to be nosey." He told her when seeing Vee smiled back at him and raise the screen back up, and resume playing the keyboards and read what she's reading before clicking on the mouse.

"I too want to know what's up with you and this weird behavior you're having Vampirina."

Vee turn her head to the left and saw her other monster friend Gregoria who walked in, and had her arms crossed with a suspicious look towards her. "Oh really?." Vee asked in sarcasm while resuming back to her laptop. "Yes really Vampirina. You've been acting awfully too happy for the pass two weeks and the only time you're that happy, is when your mom makes her famous lizard and dog guts pot pie." Gregoria stated the truth as Mrs. Hauntley haven't made any meat pies as of late. Before Vee could talk back to her stone monster friend she had to do one final thing on website that she is on, and clicked send and then closed her laptop up while getting up to seat down on the bed to give Gregoria her full complete attention.

Crossing her arms Vee said it plainly.

"Look Gregoria. You and Demi need to know that they are something's that's your business and something's that's not your business. Now if you will excuse me, I want to be by myself in my own room please." Vee told them with her finger pointing at the open door.

Not wanting to argue with the young Vampire girl the two respected her wish, and walked or float out of her room and closed the door behind them. Breathing out the built up air inside her and layed back now facing the ceiling, Vee just ignore her friends concern about her personal life and focused on going to the movies with Edgar. The thought of going to see Captain Marvel just made her smile and can't wait for the sun to go down, and dying to leave her home go with Edgar.

Time have passed bye bye as the Sun went down for the day and out came the full Moon in which was Vees favorite thing, as she opened up her window and walked out of her room and closed the window down. Then she transformed into a bat and fly down to the Peeplesons garden where Edgar was just went out from the back of his house, and quietly closed back with the most quietness that he possibly can and smiled with his success.

"Boo!." shouted Vee in her quilt voice as it shooken Edgar up and turned around in scare.

"Oh god, I thought it was my pain in the butt sister of mines but luckily it's you babe." Edgar said giving her a smile while catching his breath after being scared good.

"Haha. Sorry to give you a scare cutie. I just love to surprise people back in Transylvania." Vee said having her arm around Edgar's as the two quietly snuck out and walled down to the street.

The two talked and hold hands through the beautiful moonlight as Edgar was telling Vee on how much he loved supernatural things and monsters such as zombies, while Vee told Edgar that she had friends that are zombies in which Edgar was dope excited to learn more facts about actual monsters. Of course their conversation about the undead was put to a hold when the two find themselves at movie theater building, and almost passed the place due to talking about the citizens of Transylvania. The two walked up to the ticket booth as Edgar took out his phone and pulled up some tickets on it and show it to the ticket master.

"Ah I see you have brought your tickets and reserved seats online. You two can go right on in please." The Ticket Master said before wishing them a fun time.

With getting the okay to go in as Edgar opened the door for Vee to go in first before he did, and walked towards the concession stand and ordered a big bucket of butter popcorn and two medium sized drinks of Coca-Cola in which Edgar had paid for it as well, to Vees surprise before Edgar gave her the big bucket of popcorn. Carrying their snacks to the movie room and found their reserve seats in which was in the middle so they can watch the movie with no problem. "Do you what's my most favorite part in every Marvels movie?." asked Vee before taking a hand full of popcorn in her mouth to chew. Edgar set his cup down before taking a few sips and said in honesty. "No not really. What is the most favorite part in every Marvels movie?." Vee took the chance to chew her popcorn that was in her mouth as Edgar can see that she took a big portion of it due her cheeks gotten extended. She swallowed the chewed up popcorn and sip some of her soda to clean her throat up and looked back at her boyfriend.

"My favorite part in every Marvels movie is a Stan Lee cameo." Vee informed him with a smile.

"Oh yeah that's my favorite part too. I love that man's cameos especially his signature phase. Excelsior." Edgar said grinning about his last part as it truly was his favorite.

"Yeah I loved when he says Excelsior. That's his ultimate signature of all time." Vee said and then suddenly got saddened real quick. "But now his gone and there won't be any more Marvel movie cameos." She told Edgar as a few tears came running down her cheeks.

Edgar knows that Marvels Comic Book legend Stan Lee was like a grandpa to Vee as he was kind, funny, and lovable and now he passed away last year in November. In deep honesty and not telling a lie, Edgar always dreamed about meeting Stan Lee and just hang out with the man and asked the most nerdy questions about every Marvel comic book issue, and hoped that he will sign his comics for him but it looks like his number one dream want come true. Smiling with compassion to his vampire girlfriend he wiped the tears off her face and put his arm around her, making Vee smile a little as she knows Edgar was trying to comfort her and make her feel better.

"Vee don't be sad. Stan Lee lived a good long blissful life and I bet that he doesn't want his fans to cry, and mourn over his death. No, but instead he wanted us to stay strong and continue his legacy by watching and reading Marvel Universe, and never forget to say Excelsior in respect." said Edgar and lean down to kiss her lips.

Vee kissed back and felt much better now, and know that Edgar was right and should honor her hero by watching or reading anything Marvel and never be sad about the legends passing. As Stan Lee didn't want none of that and deep down she can felt his presence, and feel that he wanted her to continue to be his forever fan no matter what. "Your right Edgar. Stan Lee wanted us to be strong and never give up on his and Marvels legacy." Vee said grabbing another handful of popcorn and put it to Edgar's mouth, as he munched down on it and ate happily as he did an outstanding job of not only making Vee happy again, but also reviving Stan Lee's memory as will always be there in their hearts and in the heart of the Marvel Universe.

When the lights in the room when low automatically. Both Vee and Edgar got comfortable in their seats as the movie was starting and watched the opening of the movie. Almost forgetting to turn off their phones from ringing, the two quickly take out their phones and turned them off and put them back into their pockets. The two hold hands throughout the whole film while drinking and eating popcorn and have their eyes glued to the big screen, and not once left their eyes off the smash jam action of Captain Marvel and enjoyed the awesome work that Marvel Studios has to offer as it was worth every penny to Edgar. When the movie was over and the lights in the room was lit back up, the two headed out to go leave the room and go use the bathroom before completely leaving the movie theater.

Edgar waited for Vee to come out of the Women's bathroom as he finished handling his business in the Mens bathroom, and looked at the up coming films on the wall that was coming soon to this movie theater and had his eyes on one film ad. And that ad was Avengers Endgame in which he couldn't wait for it to hit theaters soon. "I can't wait to see how the Avengers are going to put an end to Thanos." He told himself as he and everyone else who was a die hard Marvels fan was waiting and wondering on the up coming blockbuster, and all wondered how it will all end with this fourth Avengers movie. His thoughts were interrupted when a pair of arms were wrapped around his neck, and felt kisses going down his neck up to his ear.

"You're great with your lips Vee." Edgar said turning around to face her.

"Yeah I know Edgar. My lips are great when it comes down to having it touched by your lips." Vee grinned and hold his hand as the two walked out together.

When exiting the movie theater Vee hopped on to Edgar's back and let him carry her home, and listen to one of Edgar's playlist that he gave her when putting his ear buds in her ears, and started listening to some real music that she have thought possible. "Why this is spooktacular!. Who is the cool artist that I'm listening to Edgar?." Vee asked nodding her head in enjoyment as the music was really good to her soul. "His name is DJ Khaled. His cool huh?." Edgar asked his girlfriend when taking a right turn to reach their homes. Vee could only nod in response as her focus was on the man's music as it was so new and exciting to her. In fact the music was so good that she wanted to ask Edgar if he could get them tickets to DJ Khaled's concert.

"How come Poppy didn't introduce me to this artist?." asked Vee taking out the ear buds.

"Ohhhhh that's easy. She has no taste in music and she not gangster like me." Edgar informed as it was true.

Vee just laughed her butt off after hearing it from her boyfriend and can't believe that Poppy wasn't good at music taste, and wondered what else does she sucks at as this was too good to be true but it is!.

When reaching home and getting off of Edgar's back and gave him a goodnight kiss and made the kiss much more passionate, and broke apart and waved goodbye for the night. Edgar went to the back and entered his home while Vee turned back into her bat form and flew up to her window, and turned back to open it up to get in and closed right back and went to change into her pajamas and go right to bed. As for Edgar who went to change into his pajamas and went to bed with his mind on Vampirina and tomorrow. He wondered how he and Vee will keep their relationship on the down low as Poppy already have her nose in his kool-aid and don't know the flavor, but Vee doesn't need to stress about it as Edgar promise her that Poppy doesn't know anything about them and their secret.

"As long as Poppy doesn't know a damn thing about me and Vee, then will be a ok." Edgar thought before closing his eyes to sleep with his mind was on his girlfriend throughout the whole dream.

"Excelsior!." came a familiar voice.

Edgar woke up and scanned his whole room and see that their's no one here with him in which was confusion, as he could have sworn he heard a familiar voice that said Excelsior but probably over thinked or just probably nothing and went back to sleep in peace.

A/N: Their is nothing wrong about giving Stan Lee his cameo in this story!. RIP Marvels Comic Book Legend. The World of today and The Marvel Universe will won't be the same without you. Excelsior!.
