Alexis' POV
Friday morning
when ever it would rain my mom would drive me and my brother Joseph to school. But we would always be late, even is she tried to get ready any faster we would always end up getting to school late.
Thank goodness that my first period teacher would never get mad at me for being late. My teacher is very sweet, she isn't like most teachers who would yell at you and give you detention for being late.
School dragged along like usual until about lunch time. Quinn sits in the same seat as my but at a table behind me. We sat backs to each other but we always turned around to talk to one another.
"Hey Quinn." I say.
He turns around and gives me a warm smile and says "hey."
"Can I talk to you for a minute." I said with a serious face.
The smile that was so warm fell from his face and gave me a worried look and said a shaky "Sure."
we walked out of the cafeteria and into a empty hallway, he still looked nervous and worried. I was able to tell in his ocean blue eyes because what ever mood he was in his eyes would change different shades of blue. I wasn't sure if it was because he was a vampire or it's the way his eyes were. Then I really thought about it and my moms eyes change different colors of browns too.
Quinn wasn't the type of person to act like this, so to make him feel better I say " I just wanted to talk nothing to worry about." he calmed down a little more but still seemed a little unsteady though.
"If its just a simple question you wanted to ask me, then why did you pull me out of the cafeteria?" he asked with curiosity.
" I have my reason why...I'm just gonna come out and say it." I said confidently.
" Who else knows your a vampire?" I blurted out to him.
He sighed with relieve, what did he think I was going to say? Then he began to say " well, of coarse my family, John Susan, the school district and you."
" Why does the school district know?" I asked.
" I'm not sure, I guess my parents wanted them to know." he said
" How long have they known?" I asked being a little curious but since I'm analytical I wanted to know this.
" Well..." he started to say "John had found out last year, Susan just found out on the first day of school, and you found out yesterday." he said being facetious as usual. I rolled my eyes a his comment, I always do when he acts this way around me. He enjoys to piss me off all the time he even tells me to which makes it even worse.
" I'm just wondering why it took you so long to tell me?" I asked.
" Like I said yesterday, I didn't want to ruin are friendship." Quinn said.
" Wow, I didn't realize that are friendship means so much to you?" I said with a huge smile and thinking awwwwww!
" Well it is." he said while taking one of my hands with his.
I could feel the heat rise to my face, I was blushing again. It was only Quinn who was able to make me blush uncontrollably. I wanted to know why, but I just don't know? These are the real questions that needed to be answered!
" lets get back to lunch before are friends start to worry." I said.
" Yeah, I'm starving, you pulled me out right as I was about to start eating my lunch." he said and I playfully punched his arm.
As we were about to leave and walk back to lunch everything went horribly wrong.
As we were about to go back to the cafeteria, us for some odd reason still holding hands but it felt right
though. But all of a sudden all the lights in the hallway started to flicker then they eventually went off.
I looked at Quinn confused and he was also confused too. Then I thought for a second Quinn loves to mess with me so I though he might be playing a joke on me.
So since I'm thinking that I say " Are you messing with me again?"
" Not this time." He said, so then whats going on?
Then we just stood their Dumfounded. We looked to see if anyone else was still in the hallway ans there is no one in sight.
Then out of no were this person starts to walk down the hallway towards us. It was a guy dressed in all black and in his left hand you could see a knife. My eyes widen and I begin to get really scared and I squeeze Quinn's hand.
"Quinn we have to get out of here!" I say quickly and started to pull at his hand.
"Yeah hurry go this way." he said in a husk tone. "Lets go into the empty class room over there and take my phone and call the police." he said and gave me his phone and I dialed 911 but there was no answer.
"Theirs no answer Quinn." I said starting to cry because this is the second time in my life that someone has a knife and I'm running and hiding.
"Alexis calm down, I wouldn't let anything happen to you." he said, which made me smile but tears still rolling down my face.
" You know how scared I am of knifes! That's why when you talked about them with Whitney ans Susan I would always put my head phones in and listen to music." I said with a serious face.
" Now I understand why your afraid, since that person tried to stab you and Whitney." he said sincerely
" Yeah, and now its happening all over again, why does everything horrible happen to me?" I said sobbing even more, and Quinn took his hand and wiped away the tears on my face. He's a very sweet guy but can be very sarcastic and a smart ass sometimes too.
"Do you think he followed us?" I asked with curiosity.
" I don"t think so, but he can't get ti use because the door is locked and no one can see inside the classroom." Quinn said trying to make me feel better.
" Wait what about are friends! There in the Cafeteria and the guy with the knife could be their hurting them!" I said making myself more scared then before.
" Stop thinking the worst there is teachers in the cafeteria, they'll be fine. He said reassuring me.
"How are we suppose to know when its safe to leave the classroom?" I asked
"I'm not sure, I'll leave and go look because being a vampire I wont get hurt. Also I am able to see in the dark very well." Quinn said and then letting go of my hand.
"NO!" I said really loud (crap the guy with the knife probably heard me!) he looked at me confused.
"Don't leave me here by myself!" I said starting to cry.
"I would rather have you safe in here than out there in danger." he said, awe he cares about me.
I got up from were I was sitting and went over to Quinn and gave him a big hug.
"Thank you fro caring for me so much." I said and pulling away a little but his arms were still wrapped around my waist and my arms were around his neck. We stared at each other for a few minutes, then I pulled away because I started to blush. I bet he loves the affect he has on me.
"Go." I said to Quinn motioning my hand in the direction of the door. " just be careful and come back in one piece." I said giving him another hug and he walked out the door.
15 MINUTES LATER
"Whats taking him so long?" I said aloud and sighed.
Then I hears a knock at the door, I walked slowly to the door because I don't know if it was Quinn or the guy with the knife.
There is curtains over the window on the door, so I moved it so that I can see who it was but them not able to see me. Thank goodness its Quinn!
"Quinn!" I said with excitement. I immediately opened the door and he came in and closed it behind him.
Then I noticed that hid arm was bleeding, so I sat him down in one of the desk and I got a few tissues to clean up his arm.
"What happened?" I asked wanting to him explain the cut on his arm.
" After I left to go see whats going on I had bumped into the guy with the knife." he said.
"Then what happened?" I asked wanting him to get to the point.
"He tried to stab me but thank god that I'm a vampire, we have fast instincts. The way I got the cut on my arm was when I want paying attention, but luckily he didn't get me that badly." He then looked down at his arm that I was cleaning.
"Go on." I said wanting to know more info.
"Then I had took his knife and threw it across the room so he wouldn't be able to hurt me with it. Then a light came down from the hallway, it was the principal. She had the police with her and they took the guy away after that in handcuffs. I told the principal that I would go find you and tell you everything is fine and that we can go back to lunch." he said
"wow that's a mouthful." I said.
"yeah, Ms. Poppie went to go find a janitor to go fix the lights." And weirdly after he had said that the lights went back on.
"Want to go back to lunch?" I asked with curiously.
"Yeah, so are friends don't worry." he said getting up a walking towards the door me fallowing close behind.
"I'm sorry." I said to Quinn.
"Why are you saying sorry?" he asked.
"Because if I wasn't so curious then you wouldn't have gotten hurt." as I pointed to his arm and started to tear.
"Its not your fault that we were at the wrong place at the wrong time." he said while taking his hand and wiping away the tears on my face.
"But it still my fault because I let you leave the classroom!" I said shedding more tears.
"Its over you don't have to worry anymore just be happy that you didn't get hurt." He said while bringing me into a nice long hug. But I was still crying but happy tears that he wasn't severely hurt.
We walked back to the cafeteria actually making it there this time and are friends Susan and John come running up to use asking what happened. Then we explained everything and they were in complete shock.
"so both of you okay?" John asked with concern in his voice.
"Yeah." me and Quinn said in unison. Then we all busted out laughing.
AFTER SCHOOL
"We all going to the deli like usually?" Susan asked.
"I was going to walk Alexis home because she still seems a little upset about what happened this afternoon." Quinn said to are 2 friends while was standing right next to him.
"Yeah, text you later Alexis!" Susan said before she left with John to the deli.
"lets take the long way to my house Quinn." I said walking the opposite direction Susan and John were heading because that is the same way I walk to my house and I wanted to be alone with Quinn to talk.
