Heyy! Thanks for reading so far... XD really glad you're enjoying it! Umm, oh, we got the idea for this story from Taylor swift's songs actually. Weird I know. We bet come people are sitting there like. UGH! TAYLOR SWIFT! But oh well. Haha. She has good lyrics! And they would make a good story. Okay now we are blabbering!
Oh and sorry the updates are quite far apart. Been busy lately. (Danni – it was my birthday and party thing, so not really had time) but besides the point, we have another two other stories going at the same time. Haha, twilight ones: P please read them... Missing and a wedding to remember. Okay we shut up now, and you read! And please review! Gives us confidence. Thanks.
Zoey's POV.
"Oh right, umm, you can always hang with us, I know its hard living here at..." I cut jack off. What was he on about; I'm not going to live here! I'm never going to live here! This isn't my home!
"I'm not going to live here! I don't belong here! I belong with my friends who aren't bloodsucking freaks! It's Never going to be me!" I shouted at Jack. Jack was hurt by my comment as tears began to well up in his eyes and slowly overflow; Damien suddenly had his arm round him protectively and jack buried his face in his chest. What have I done? This is all messed up, I can't stay here! I've recovered from my drinking problem, but heath hasn't, he needs me. I have to get out of here, as fast as I can, without causing more problems with these rejects!
"Hey come on! That's hardly fair Zoey! Y'all should be nice!" Stevie rays voice ran around the table., which surprised me, she seemed so quiet.
"I know, but I don't belong here, I want to be with my Boyfriend heath! And my proper friends, we need to sort things out between us!" I said in a harsh tone. Tears began to well up in my eyes, I could feel it, my throat became tight, and it was hard for me to breathe, I need heath, I want to be back in his arms, I want to have his kisses that made me forget everything and focus on us, I want to feel his protectiveness, even though it was annoying, we were in love, and nothing come between us, and nothing ever will.
"I'm sorry, I just need to get out of here, I can't stay!" I buried my face in my hands shaking my head, I have to make sense of all this.
"Come on Zoey, it's been a rough day for you, as we can see" Erin and Shaunee huffed; I lifted my head slowly and looked at Stevie ray. "as I was saying, right come on Zoey, I think you need some time alone, you need to think things through, you don't need, people hitting on you" Stark raised his hands defensively. Right, hold the tears back Zoey. I told myself.
"I'm a boy what do you expect" he smiled a cocky smile. Damien giggled, still holding jack. Stark...was sexy and he actually made me want to stay here! Like major, his cheeky ways just made me want to kiss him! Hang on, rewind that, and wait? What? I just thought that! I couldn't possibly be attracted to him, no, no, no, way! No, never, I have heath! I'm in love with Heath; I couldn't possibly like stark that way, I was many things, but not a slag! Anyways, it doesn't matter if I like him or not. I'm leaving, any who he probably has a girlfriend anyways, why would he be interested in someone like me? Oh my god! Stop thinking like that Zoey, are you mad!? Well yeah I am. Ugh besides the point!
"And, getting into a rant with the twins, because there is no way you would be able to shut them up when they have started" Stevie ray looked at the twins who beamed a grin back. "Okay, come on Zoey" Stevie ray stood up and pushed the three lads up and out the way, for a girl she is quiet strong.
Stevie ray grasped my wrist and dragged me out of the dining room; I didn't want to cause a bigger scene anyways, so I didn't pull away from her, as I was dragged out by this leach, I felt eyes follow my every move, a lot of eyes.
Stevie ray dropped my wrist and carried on walking towards the girl's dorm. Soon as I left the main building and onto a walk way towards another building, probably the girl's dorms, I felt the cold air lick at my face, forcing my hair to whirl around me. What am I going to do? Oh my! That's it! I could cover up my mark with makeup! Then go and live back with my mum and step-loser dad! And go back to school, and be with heath, and totally avoid all this vampire crap! All I need to do is sneak out.
"Ya no, it's probably not a good idea for you to be picking enemies already" Stevie ray said cutting me from my thought.
"Like it matters anyway leach" I snorted in a unattractive way. Stevie ray just lifted her eyebrow at me.
"Leach you say? Yet you're one yourself" She giggled in her weird twang voice.
"IM NOTHING LIKE YOU, CAN'T YOU GET THAT THROUGH YOU STUPID SKULL!" I yelled in her face, and stomped forwards, and pushed the girl's dorm open, and had several girls staring at me. "WHAT? TAKE A PICTURE IT WILL LAST LONGER YOU LOSERS" all the girls quickly looked away quickly and carried on with what they were doing.
"Okay, whatever you say. But you can't run away from this, you remember that" Stevie ray placed her hand on my shoulder. She actually felt like a friend. Oh for god sakes, why am I finding reasons to stay here! Ugh! "Come on, I'll take you to your room" I followed Stevie ray to my room, we walked in complete silence. Stevie suddenly stopped outside of a brown door.
"Here your room, Okay and if you need anything I'm just across the hall" at that she left, and went into her room, I took a deep breath and let myself into my room. The room wasn't partially big nor small. The walls were a pale cream colour, and so was the floor, there was a big window that over looked the east wall, 2 single beds, a dressing table, a bathroom. Just a basic room, how boring!
On one of the single beds there was a note and a pile of stuff over flowing the end of it. All that stuff was mine; I thought grandma was bringing it tomorrow? The note read.
Dear Zoeybird.
I brought your stuff early. I can't visit you tomorrow, since there has been some very bad news. My old friend has died; I am going to the funeral and staying with her relatives. I will be back in about a week or two. You behave. I have also tried to sort things out with your parents, but they will not listen. I'm sorry zoeybird.
I love you
Grandma x
"Oh my poor grandma" I whispered. She didn't need the hassle right now. I sat on the bed, which surprisingly was very comfy. I looked over to the pile of stuff at the end of my bed. I can't go home, I can't make an excuse about my mark and say it was fake; they would make me join that cult! The one that my step-loser dad got my mum into and totally zombiefyed her! But I could still go to a school and say it was a rumour that I had been marked, and I could live here! Go to house of night classes at night, and go to my normal school classes in the day! Easy! All I would need to is sneak from place to place! Simple! I have a normal life! And a stupid messed up retarded vampire life.
I grabbed some stuff and put it in my room, to make it more homely since I was after all going to live here. I put most of my stuff away, well, more of shoved it were it would go without it looking to messy.
Right that looks...okay. I looked around my room. Wow that actually looks alright, since I have just unpacked in the space of 15mins. At least that took my mind of Heath for a bit, oh heath. I wonder what he is doing now. Maybe he is thinking about me. I looked over at the clock I had just recently unpacked it said 6:30am, well that means he will be asleep at the moment, and he will be getting up for school at 7:30am, school starts at 8:30am so I have about 1 hour and 45 minutes to kill.
I shuffled over to my bed and sat down looking around my new room, I sighed, what do I do now? My song book caught my eye. I reached over to my new bedside table and picked up my song book, which was shut tight together with a red ribbon. I ran my fingers over the front. Everything I had ever gone through I wrote a song about, this song book was like my diary. I put my book aside and got my guitar. I ran my fingers over the strings. What song could I sing? Umm. Oh I know!
I placed my fingers in the right places and starting playing and singing my song I wrote not too long ago. Called I'm only me when I'm with you.
Friday night beneath the stars,
in a field behind your yard,
you and I are paintin' pictures in the sky.
And sometimes we don't say a thing;
just listen to the crickets sing.
Everything I need is right here by my side.
And I know everything about you
I don't wanna live without you.
I'm only up when you're not down.
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground.
It's like no matter what I do.
Well you drive me crazy half the time;
the other half I'm only trying to let you know that what I feel is true.
And I'm only me when I'm with you.
Just a small town boy and girl
livin' in a crazy world.
Tryin' to figure out what is and isn't true.
And I don't try to hide my tears.
The secrets or my deepest fears.
Through it all nobody gets me like you do.
And you know everything about me.
You say that you can't live without me.
I'm only up when you're not down.
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground.
It's like no matter what I do.
Well you drive me crazy half the time;
the other half I'm only trying to let you know that what I feel is true.
And I'm only me when I'm with you.
When I'm with anybody else it's so hard to be myself.
Only you can tell.
I'm only up when you're not down.
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground.
It's like no matter what I do.
Well you drive me crazy half the time;
the other half I'm only trying to let you know that what I feel is true.
And I'm only me when I'm with you.
That I'm only up when you're not down.
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground.
It's like no matter what I do.
Well you drive me crazy half the time;
the other half I'm only trying to let you know that what I feel is true.
And I'm only me
Who I wanna be
Well, I'm only me when I'm with you
With you
Uh huh
Yeahhhhhhh
A tear escaped my eye and rolled down my cheek. I took my guitar off and placed it on the floor.
"I shouldn't be here, I should be with heath, come on what have I done to deserve this eh!" I threw my hands up, as tears began to escape, I pulled my legs up to my chest and lay down on the bed "I have stopped getting trashed all the time! I don't steal anymore! I've changed, and I'm getting heath to! And you pull me away from him and the part of my life the makes me happy! WHAT THE HELL HAVE I DONE?" I sobbed into my bed covers for a while. I want Heath, it's times like this when he is there for me, and he holds me in his stong arms, and tells me everything will be okay, and he loves me. I sniffed "I'm all alone here, can't you see that" I whispered.
"Great! Now I'm talking to nothing! I'm going mental" I mumbled to myself.
"No you're not" a voice rang from the door.
