Chapter 2:
- Talia POV -
UGH! This place is annoying with all its "Oh-Mi-Gawd! Did you hear about Billy and Sandra?" and the every so popular "Why can't he like me?!".
One: No one cares where they found "Billy" and "Sandra" and what they were doing, you hypocrite. You probably did it yesterday.
Two: Because you are annoying and clingy and you ask questions like "Why can't he like me?!".
Arron and Anika are so lucky they get to escape this place in a few months.
It was December, which meant Christmas break was just around the corner. I paid less and less attention to what the teacher was saying, now more than ever, and yet I still heard it all. Ugh... why did I have to be the youngest - physically, now if we counted from when I was born, then, you know, I really wouldn't be stuck in mortals torture - ?
I got in my car (a black Aston Martin DBS, and the keys alone cost $2,000) and drove home. Finals were killer and I wished that it could be summer break already.
I walked in the door to see Lily sitting on the couch. Lily was physically around twenty-one years old. She had waist length dark brown hair and the normal golden eyes. She wore jeans, a dark blue long sleeved shirt, black sneakers, heart shaped locket, and an emerald ring on pinky finger. She was sitting next to Oliva Rose who was changed when she was 19. Oliva changed her appearance continuously because of her power, today her hair was dark brown with violet highlights. Her eyes were a pure silver today. She was sitting cross legged on the couch in her jeans and t-shirt, with a knit shaw wrapped around.
"Hey shortie! You're home. What took ya so long?" Aaron called from the music room, which was a light blue room with arched, floor to ceiling windows.
"Unlike you, I actually drive the speed limit." Actually that was a lie. I was off thinking about somewhere and wasn't paying attention to where I was going and ended up missing the road to our house.
He gave me an off look, knowing that I hate driving the speed limit, but he shook his head and dismissed it. "So how did you do on the finals?" He always treated me like his little sister, which I really didn't mind, just because I never knew my family and it was comforting to have someone look out for you. And he is definitely able to look out for me
"Don't know, don't care.
He laughed. "You never do care."
That sort of stung. I mean, I know I don't pay attention a lot to things, but I do care... sometimes.
I shook away the thought quickly. "Yeah, pretty much. I'm gonna go mess with my car." I say turning towards the garage.
"Try not to break anything."
"Don't worry, if I break anything it's gonna be your car." I tried to show that nothing was wrong; but a giggle slipped out as I skipped towards the garage. Great, Gigi is rubbing of on me. Next I'll be drinking coffee and flirting with human guys.
Oh the horrors!
I looked at my car and remembered how I had spaced off and decided not to work on the car today, grabbing the motorcycle instead. I was driving down the deserted highway and the wind felt great as it rushed through my hair. But some random stranger in a helmet had to come ruin it. They pulled up along side me, as if asking for a challenge. So that's what I gave him.
My bike, after I customized it, can hit up to 350 mph. When I actually got up to that speed, though, he was at least a quarter mile behind. I slowed down and brought it to a stop where the road cut off.
I didn't feel like dealing with him, he was going to get me all riled up when I was trying to calm myself. So I rode off onto the untamed backroad.
When I got back, Anika noticed the twigs and the leaves sticking out of my hair immediately and tried to give me a stern look, although it seemed more confused than anything.
"What...?" Anika began.
"Nothing, just took a short cut home." I say as I glide up the stairs, not in the mood to deal with anyone. My little trip hadn't really helped much in calming me down.
I passed Lily's purple room to see her looking through her closet, while Olivia was playing the keyboard in her room and apparently writing down notes for a song. I ran past Aaron's room and shut the door quickly once I got into mine, hoping that he would get the sign and leave me alone. I turned on the shower water an pulled the twigs out of my hair, dirt was everywhere. I jumped in the shower and sat on the ground to be ale to have some thinking time to myself.
- Aaron's POV -
I was laying on my bed upside down and stared at one of the posters in my room. It wasn't really interesting, I just didn't want to do anything today.
Anika came in and sat down next me me, laying her head on my stomach, and closed her eyes. "Was your real sister so unhappy?"
"I can't really remember. But I remember her smile. I remember her being a happy little girl."
"I guess that changes when you're a vampire."
"Who says?" I smiled playfully at her.
She cocked her eyebrow. Suddenly her lips twitched up and she took off running. I chased after her and we ran around in the forest for a few hours just laughing and smiling.
- Lily POV -
Huh. So which pair of shoes would go better?
I held up the shoes to the dress that was currently on the mannequin. The v neck purple dress was just hanging there, taunting me. You don't have any shoes to match! It rubbed in my face and I could almost hear it's laughter.
I close the french doors with the stain glass windows.
You don't have the shoes. Alright, I know it's mocking me now.
"Olivia, Talia! We're going to the mall." I say loud enough for them to hear where ever they were.
"Coming." Olivia said as she entered my room.
"Talia." I say again. "TALIA." I say louder, though not screaming.
"What? I'm in the shower!" She answers. What ever. She still could have heard me.
"Fine hurry up, you're going to the mall with me."
"No." Even though the sound was slightly muffled by the shower water, I could hear the underlying growl in her voice.
"No, my butt. You're going to the mall. Now hurry up! Or I will go dent your car." There was no way she was winning this one. I grinned to myself.
Not even a second goes by and Talia appears in front of me with a pair of jeans and a hoodie on. "Fine then. Let's get this over with.
"Glad you could see it my way."
She rolled her eyes and continued down the stairs.
"I thought you were taking a shower." Olivia pointed out.
