Chapter 2:
A Lesson to be Learned,
A Thought to be Remembered
Mary? Mary!" I looked up to see Beth waving in my face.
"Huh?" I asked, dazed. How long have I been out?
"I said, 'This is Kendra'!"
I looked at the girl she was referring to. She had light-brown, wavy hair and ice-blue eyes. She was pale, very pale, and she was short, only five-foot-one. I narrowed my eyes at her. She looked nervous, but it lasted for only a moment, a simple flash of fear. I smiled smoothly at her. "Hello, Kendra." Hello indeed.
"Hello," she said, smiling back, all traces of fear gone. She had a lovely voice, quiet, but it carried.
I looked at her tray. She was eating Tostitos and a pack of chocolate covered donuts.
"Aren't you hungry?" I asked her.
She shrugged. "I don't eat much."
"Oh…," I said.
"What about you?" she asked.
I looked at my salad that I had drowned in Romano Vinaigrette salad dressing with some AB+ blood, which I got from the blood bank, in it. I took a bit. It was disgusting and hard to swallow. Human food tastes like dirt… gross!
After lunch, I caught up with Kendra. I pulled her out of the way and looked into her eyes. I've got to get some answers from her. "How long?" I asked her. "How long have you been…," Damn… what if I'm wrong? I could spoil everything! "…one of us?"
"I don't know what you're talking about," the look on her face… "Please move so that I may not be late to my next class."
WHAT! "Why you little…"
"I suggest you get psychiatric help for your… problem," she said condescendingly. With that, she left.
Period 5: Latin
Mr. Goncalves… hmm… he's a little different. Does he always do that finger thing? Why can't he snap like everyone else? And his vocabulary is atrocious! This is so funny! Ha ha….
I sighed and tried to look like I was paying attention. It wasn't easy. He just droned on and on about things I didn't care about. And so the period dragged on.
Period 6: Computer
Finally! Something that's interesting!

Okay… I'm bored…
Cara sat at the computer next to mine in the back of the classroom and this girl sat in front of me. Her name was Katie. She spent most of the class period talking about this boy she carpools with. I think she said his name was Carl. That's a nice name, I guess.
After class, I went to my locker and quickly packed up my stuff. I carefully put all of my textbooks into my black sling backpack. I would read them when I got home and memorize the contents so I didn't fall behind. That's one great thing about vampires, photographic memory.
As soon as I had cleared the school, I was running. I loved running. The feel of the feel of the wind on my icy skin was exhilarating. I had running in my genes (just like every other vampire on the planet). We could run at super-sonic speeds at any time we want. The trees were all but invisible as I sped through the miles of forest that led toward our (Anastasia's really) house.
She's been living here for a while now. She took me in when I first came to Star's Hallow, about a month ago.
I looked over and noticed someone running behind me in my peripheral vision. A familiar someone… Kendra.
A/N: Sorry that this chapter is so short. I'll try to make longer ones in the future. Please review! Thanks for reading!
