I woke up to the sound of…oh gosh…moaning and panting.

I peeked at my alarm clock and saw that it was 11:13 P.M. I groaned and just tried to ignore the sounds but,

"Rick! Ricky! Ricky! Ah~!" was hard to ignore.

I guess my friends were telling the truth. I also heard another girl pant,

"David~! Ah~! More~!"

I shivered and continued to ignore them, but the more I tried to ignore their noise, the louder it seemed to get.

"Aw, fuck!" said a guy, and that made me snap.

I raised my shaky fist and pounded it on the wall that separated me from the sex crew. The wall made a huge vibration and I'm amazed it didn't break.

"Shut the fuck up! I'm trying to sleep here! Go hump each other in the woods damn it!"

Hey! I just heard my own echo! Ha ha.

It grew silent and I grumbled and laid my head back down.

I immediately fell back asleep, not hearing anymore noises.

===========================

I woke up again to noise…again.

This time though, it was my front door being banged on.

I groaned and sat up and then slowly stood, walking in a bee line to my door.

I opened it and there stood a prostitute.

"I'm not interested. I don't have any money on me sorry."

"What are you talking about?" she asked.

"Look. I'm straight too, so yeah. You should go to another door."

I was about to close the door, but she said,

"I just want to talk."

I re-opened the door and said,

"Well, then talk."

"Was that you who banged on the wall?" she asked flipping her hair over her shoulder.

"Who's asking?"

"Uh, me?" she said in a 'duh' voice.

I rolled my eyes. Is this girl seriously as stupid as she looks?

"What's your name?" I asked slowly so she would understand.

"Oh." she paused like the idiot she is. "I'm Katherine Samantha Matthew. But people call me Kathy."

"Okay. Look here Katie-"

"Uh, it's Kathy." she said in a obnoxious tone.

"I heard Katie!" I said in a sterner tone and she shut her mouth.

I noticed people woke up from her loudness too and they were peeking from behind their doors.

"Because you and your dormmate were banging each other last night, I woke up cranky. And now you're banging my door? First of all, that's just wrong." I said.

People giggled and Katie flushed.

"Second of all, I'm tired, so go away."

"Wait," she said before I closed the door.

"How would you like to become friends? You're short, but you have the looks." she said trying to look cool in front of the people peeking from behind their doors.

I smiled sweetly.

"No." I said acidly and slammed the door on her face.

I walked back to my bedroom feeling awake…and mad.

There was a knock on my door again and I groaned.

"Look here Ka-"

But it was Amber, Kina, and Alex.

"Oh. It's you guys." I invited them in.

"Why was Kathy at your door? She stormed off pretty mad." Kina said.

"Who?" I asked.

"Kathy."

"There wasn't a Kathy at my door, but there was a Katie." I said.

"No. I'm pretty sure her name is Kathy."

We just stared at each other like we were crazy, but then Amber broke the silence.

"Kathy, Katie, it doesn't matter. Why was she here?"

I told them about last night and this morning with her banging, and they just burst into laughter.

"You're the first person to tell her off! I'm amazed." Alex said.

I just shrugged. "I had to say something or else I wouldn't be able to sleep."

"Wow. Maybe, you're just blunt." Kina blinked.

"Maybe." I shrugged again. "Wait here. I gotta go and get ready."

I went into the bathroom and brushed my teeth and combed my hair.

I went back ready now and noticed the big bag that looked like a diaper bag that Kina had slung over her shoulder.

"What's that for?" I asked pointing to it.

"It's your blood. In fact you should drink some right now." Kina said as we exited my dorm room.

She handed me a can that looked like the one I drank from last night. I chugged it down, still not used to the texture.

"And another." I chugged it down.

"An-"

"No way! Two is enough!" I said and a huge burp erupted from my mouth.

People in the hall stared at me weird and I just laughed under my breath and covered my mouth.

We went out the school and a lady was standing there.

When she saw me, she smiled and held out her hand.

"You must be Mariam. I'm Ms. Dean. I'm an art teacher, and I'll be the one to chaperone you four." she smiled.

"Nice to meet you." I shook her hand with a firm grip. My daddy taught me that.

"So how are we going to get there?" I asked.

They turned to grin at me.

"We're gonna run." Alex said.

"What?"

"Run." Kina repeated for Alex.

"We're just gonna like-run?" I asked.

"Yeah. It's really simple. I mean, yeah, you have to learn how to control your strength, but your body has better instincts now." Amber informed.

I had an unsure look on and Ms. Dean said "Just run. You'll be fine. We'll start off slow."

They took off fast as hell. Those liars!

I ran and immediately reached them.

Oops. I guess I was just slower.

They gradually sped up and I did also and soon, I felt like I was flying. The wind was blowing on my hair and my breath was caught in my throat, but I didn't mind. It felt good.

Soon, we reached a mall and my throat started getting itchy.

I hacked my throat and Kina quickly handed me a can of blood.

I quickly took it and drank it all in only a few gulps. I sighed and grinned.

"I cannot wait to do that again."

"Oh! Before I forget, here you go Mariam." Ms. Dean handed me some money. "It's from Fariyel. She says you don't own her."

I laughed. "Okay."

"First things first! Victoria's Secret!" Alex said grabbing my hand and they dragged me to the store.

Ms. Dean stayed behind and did a little shopping herself.

"Wait! Wait! Wait! I am not going in there!" I said trying to stop them. "I don't need fancy expensive underwear!"

People glanced at me funny and I ignored them.

"No, but you need to be sexy. How could you have sex appeal and not use it? You're a vampire now. Use it to your advantage." Amber smirked.

I groaned as I figured out that I couldn't fight all three of them and just slumped into their arms.

They made me stand in the middle of the store while they brought me stuff to see if I liked it.

I sighed. No way was I going to say I liked any of this stuff.

They brought up a thong. And it was seriously a thong. A thong that was nothing but string.

It was actually just Alex who brought it up, so I smacked her right up in the head.

Hmm. I felt like déjà vu. Oh well.

"Why, hello Amber babe!" said a girl.

I looked in the direction of the voice and it belonged to a red head who was tall and looked exactly like Amber. A brunette girl stood next to her. She wasn't as tall as the red head, but she was still tall.

"Ember!" Amber squeled and ran over to her to give her a hug. "Missed you! What are you doing here?"

The Ember girl grinned. "Shopping!"

"Hey Tiffany! Nice to see you again." Alex greeted the brunette girl.

"Hey. Alex! Hey Kina!" she greeted back.

"Hello!" Kina said.

"And who's this?" Ember asked.

"That's Mariam. A friend we just recently made." Amber said.

"Aw! You're so cute! Are you a freshman? Or maybe still in junior high?" Ember cooed.

Kina, Alex, and Amber muffled their laughter.

I smiled sickly sweet at her and she noticed and flinched back.

"I'm a junior…in high school." I said in an acid tone.

"Whoa. Didn't see that comin'." Tiffany laughed her butt off at Ember.

"Dang. Could've warned me Amber." Ember elbowed her and she laughed.

"Sorry. Had to see the results." she laughed again.

"Sorry. I won't mess with you. I can already tell. You're not someone to mess with." Ember said scratching her head.

"You have good senses." I said smiling.

"Anyway, I'm Ember. And as you can probably tell, I'm Amber's twin." she greeted.

"I'm Tiffany by the way." the brunette said.

"Nice to meet you guys. Do you go to V-Academy too?" I asked.

"Yeah, but we're at the other building." Tiffany said.

"Is there another building?" I asked.

As I recall, the school has six floors, three for the dorms and three for the classes. And there's only one building.

"Oh! They didn't tell you? There's another V-Academy because more students started attending, so they built another one." Ember said.

"Really? Where is it at?"

"It's to the north of your school. But it's like 10 miles away. They had to separate the buildings so the publicity of the school didn't get too big. Besides, only vampires are aloud into V-Academy anyway." Ember said.

Amber punched her in the arm.

"Gosh. Might as well as tell the whole world that Ember!" Amber looked around and fortunately, no one was around to hear.

"Oops." she whispered.

"Anyway, where's Noah?" Alex asked.

"Who's Noah?" I asked.

"My boyfriend." Ember grinned.

"Wow. Your twin already has one and you don't? I mean, you could get one if you wanted to…" I whispered the last part so only Amber could hear and she blushed.

"What?" Ember asked confused.

"Nothing." Amber said making me smirk.

"Okay? And Noah's somewhere else with Richard and Constantine." Ember said.

"Constantine?" I asked.

"Ha, ha, ha! Yeah. Unique name huh?" Tiffany said laughing.

"Um…yeah. I guess."

Kina brought up some decent looking bra and underwear and a lingerie to go over it. Well, I agreed since they were being annoying and wouldn't stop bugging me about it. They clothes were very lacy, and the lingerie stopped right above my waist line. They were all black, so that made me cave in a little. I mean, who doesn't like black?

"Make sure you come out to show us!" Alex said before I walked into the dressing rooms.

I changed and looked at myself in the mirror. I didn't look as bad as I thought I would. I pushed my hair back and it revealed a lot of cleavage. I was embarrassed at first to go out, but the store only has girls in it, so I guess it didn't really matter.

I walked out and they weren't where they were before, so I walked out the dressing room hall. They dressing room checker let me go, but gawked at me, and she was a girl. That scared me for a moment.

"Guys?" I asked, and there they were along with three other guys now.

Great, just great.

"Holy shi-!" Ember smacked her hand over a brunette haired guy before he could finish.

"Wow, Mariam." Kina said walking over to me. She twirled me around and I gave her a crazy look. "Just checking every corner." she said.

That sounded…perverted.

Everyone was giving me an intense stare and I shuffled under their gaze.

"Who're you?" a black haired guy asked. There were two black haired guys and the other was checking out my cleavage.

"I'm Mariam. Now who the fuck are you? And what are you doing in this store?" I asked placing a hand on my hip.

The guy who was checking out my cleavage licked his lips and I shivered involuntarily.

"This is my boyfriend, Noah and his friends Richard and Constantine." Ember said tilting her head to the side a bit. Noah, was the brunette, Richard was the shorter of the black hair guys, and Constantine was the tall black hair guy.

I flipped my hair over my shoulders and made sure it wrapped around my body.

"Pedophiles." I said narrowing my eyes at all of them. "Do you guys really like to stare at little girls?"

"Baby, the way your body is talking, you're definitely not a child." said the black hair guy who licked his lips. The way his eyes roamed my body and stayed put on my eyes made me turn hot.

"I'm going…to…go and…change." I said as I quickly turning around running back to my dressing room.

I quickly changed back into my clothes and walked back out giving the clothes to the lady by the dressing room counter.

I was scared about walking back to them, but I eventually did.

They all looked at me right away when I came back.

"I can't believe you guys forced a little girl to dress up in lingerie." said Noah.

"How old are you?" Richard asked.

"I'm a junior in high school." I sighed feeling like déjà vu again.

Their faces turned to shock.

I looked up at everybody, and saw that I was the shortest person of this group.

I felt like a bug.

"How old are you guys?" I asked.

"I'm a senior. So is Richard. Constantine is a junior." Noah said.

"Oh, so you're Ember's boyfriend. Nice to meet you. I'm glad that you are loyal." I said and he blushed.

I noticed that Richard was giving me a stare and I glared at him. He flushed and looked away.

"What do you want?" I asked Constantine. He was smirking, but his smirk just got wider.

"You got a boyfriend?" he asked.

"No. I bet you do though." I laughed dryly.

"I don't have one."

"Yeah, but you have a girlfriend." Richard said.

Constantine just sighed and gave him a 'shut up!' look.

"Hm. You're not very loyal are you?" I asked.

"She doesn't have to know." he whispered.

I smacked him on the head, and felt his-awfully familiar-soft black hair.

He was stunned and just blinked.

What is with this déjà vu lately?

My throat started getting itchy so I asked Kina for a can of blood.

I chugged it down and wiped my mouth.

"That's it? You're not gonna even try to go and grab a snack with a little fun?" Constantine snorted.

My eyes widened.

Why? Why did that sound so familiar? Why?

He saw my reaction and he leaned into my face.

I heard him sniff my neck and I stiffened.

He pulled back with shocked face.

"Oh my god." we both said. "It's you!" we pointed an accusing finger at each other.

"You bastard!" I yelled.

I flew my fist at him and it connected with his jaw. He stumbled back rubbing his jaw and staring at me wide eyed.

It's him! It's him!

He's the one who changed me!
