Chapter Three: I Don't Do Well ABlood Drives

The next night Harper, Alex, Justin, and Max were sitting on the couch in their living room. Alex had "invited" (aka gave permission for her to come downstairs) Rachael over, and she was in the kitchen making popcorn. They were all going to watch "Twilight".

"This was Juliette's favorite movie." Justin whispered sadly to Alex.

"Shush!" Alex shushed Justin - it was the best part of the movie.

"Ooh, this is my favorite movie!" Rachael exclaimed as she plopped down between Justin and Alex on the overcrowded couch.

"It was Juliette's, too." Justin said sadly.

"Who's Juliette?" Rachael asked.

"Shush!" This time, Harper and Max joined Alex in on the shush.

"My old girlfriend. She was a vampire." Justin said.

"Aw, what happened?" Rachael asked.

"Get a room!" Alex snapped.

"She was scratched by a werewolf and she lost her vampire powers." Justin said.

"Well that's not so bad," Rachael said. "She didn't die, at least. And that would make her human, right? That's not bad."

"She looked her real age." Justin said.

"You don't seem shallow enough to let an age difference keep you apart," Rachael said.

"I'm not. She didn't want to stay with me. She turned her real age." Justin said.

"How old?" Rachael was afraid to ask.

"Two-thousand one hundred and ninety four years old." Justin said.

"Okay, this drama is worse than the movie. Shut up!" Max said.

"You must miss her so much," Rachael said.

"I do. But I moved on...I think." Justin said.

"Do you think she moved on too?" Rachael asked.

"I don't know. I haven't seen her or talked to her in months." Justin said.

At that, Rachael gave him a hug.

Meanwhile, Harper and Alex had started their own conversation.

"So what are you doing tomorrow? Want to go shopping?" Harper asked Alex.

"I wish," Alex snorted. "I can't. My parents are making all of us go to some Red Cross blood drive and give blood. It's going to take all day."

"I'll come with you guys," Harper said. "I've done it before. It's no big deal."

"You want to come too, Rachael?" Alex asked, turning around.

"Oh, no, it's okay." Rachael said.

"Why? Scared of a little blood?" Alex asked, laughing.

"Does it gross you out?" Harper asked.

"It's not that it grosses me out...I just don't do great at blood drives." Rachael said.

"Well if it doesn't gross you out, then why won't you go?" Harper asked.

"I just, I know, I mean, being around so much blood makes me...uncomfortable."

"Guys - she said she doesn't want to go. So she's not going." Justin said, getting very defensive at the thought of Rachael being forced to do something she didn't want to do.

"Guys, shut up!" Max yelled. "Edward saved Bella from James! This is the emotional climax of the entire movie! I need to know what happens! Wait - prom...that's it? That's the end? Please, please, please tell me there's a sequel! Aw, c'mon! This is bull!"

And everyone - even Rachael - burst into loud laughter.
