It's a slow process, but I'm updating as quickly as possible. I do not own Degrassi!
I woke up and looked around to see Manny, Emma, and Maya were still asleep. It took us a while to get to sleep last night after what happened with the guys. I'm still really scared, but I feel so drawn to Lucas it's scary. We decided last night we couldn't handle going to school today so the girls got one of their friends to fake notes for us to excuse us for the day. Thank God to because we need to figure out what we're going to day about these seemingly dangerous men we are so drawn too. I decided going back to sleep wouldn't be very productive so I made my way downstairs to make breakfast for the girls. I didn't know what everyone liked so I made pancakes, waffles, eggs, bacon, and hash browns. I set everything out on the dining room table along with syrup, apple juice, orange, juice, milk, and ketchup. Manny was the first to come downstairs she looked ok still a little dazed and upset from last night like me. I smile at her weakly and say, "I made breakfast." She smiles back not as weakly and says, "Good I'm starving." We laugh and grab a plate. We ate quietly until Maya and Emma came down. We all smiled weakly at each other as Maya and Emma grabbed plates. We continued to eat silently until finally Maya says, "Guys we have to figure out what we're going to do. We are going to meet guys tonight who are clearly not human and obviously very dangerous." She pauses than adds in a small voice, "Plus I don't know about you guys, but I still feel very drawn to Owen he scares me a bit, but the thought of never seeing him again scares me more." I process what she says and realize I feel the same way if Lucas went away forever I would lose it and I literally just met him. How does he mean this much this soon? I sigh and say, "I feel the same way and he scares me. We just met them how do they mean so much so soon?" Emma says, "I guess we'll find out tonight when they explain things to us."
We all nod and Manny being Manny says, "Well if this might be the last time we see them we might as well look hot tonight. I mean it will help us be distracted if we take the couple hours we have till we have to be at the dot to pick the perfect outfits, do the best makeup and hair, and to pick the sexiest shoes." I giggle and say, "You're right Manny! We are having a late breakfast, it is 11:30am after all, so we can chalk it up to brunch. We have to be at the dot at 7 when it gets dark to meet the guys, so we take these 6 and a half hours to get ready. Manny go take a shower in my bathroom, I'll take one after you. Maya go take one in my parent's bathroom and Emma will take one after you. After everyone is showered we'll move to the next stop which is hair, after that its makeup, than nails, next is outfits, and finally its shoes. So come on ladies let's eat and get a move on." Maya nods and says, "Sounds like an excellent plan and a fantastic distraction!" I giggle and say, "I thought so. So towels and robes are in the hall closet ladies let's get out shit together please." We all giggle and talk all about what our outfits could be and how our makeup might be. It was nice and made tonight seem less scary than it had last night or when we first woke up. Maya and Manny finished eating first and headed up to shower while Emma and I stayed down stairs to clean up. She looked at me and asked, "Do you think that we could ever look past whatever the guys really are and give them a chance, because I don't know if I can live without Jay. The thought of it alone terrifies me." I look at her sympathetically and say, "I hope we can, because for some strange reason I feel the same way about Lucas. Last night when he lost it I wasn't really scared, freaked out maybe, but not scared I knew he wouldn't hurt me. I ran because I knew that's what normal people would do, but it physically hurt to run from him. I want open the door last night and let them explain everything, but I was just a tiny bit freaked out still." She nods and says, "It hurt to run from Jay to and I also wanted to open the door and let him explain. This is bad and we know it, but what fun is life without some crazy I guess. Right?" I laugh and say, "Definitely."
We finished cleaning just as Manny and Maya finished with the showers. We went upstairs as they came down in robes with their hair in towels. Manny said, "We'll be watching TV when you guys finish." We nod than walk to the hall closet and grabbed towels and robes. We then separate different bathrooms. I get in the shower and wash my hair twice, just to be safe, than I wash my body like three times, again it's a safety thing, next I shave twice, don't judge me, finally I just stand in the shower for a minute letting the water run over me. I finally get out and dry my body off than wrap my hair in a towel. I brush my teeth than I walk downstairs and sit with Manny and Maya it seems Emma is not down yet. We sit and watch some movie on TV quietly each of us I guess reflecting on what tonight will bring. Finally Emma comes downstairs and it's time to move to step two which is hair.
We talk for a few minutes before we decide how we are going to do our hair. I decide to have my hair wavy, Emma decides to do hers straight with some body to it, many decides to do hers curly, and Maya does hers pin straight. We each start taking turns doing each other's hair to the exact specifications of the other. Once our hair was done Manny says, "Step two complete our hair looks fabulous." Emma than says, "On to step three makeup!" We all take all our makeup bags out and begin to play with our makeup till we get it the way we want it. We all did a smokey eye for our eye shadow. Maya's was with pink and dark grey, Emma's was with white and dark grey, Manny's was with blue and black, and mine was with black and green. Manny and I did our foundation with bronzer, black eyeliner, black mascara, and red lipstick. Emma and Mays did foundation with pink blush, black eyeliner, black mascara, and pink lipstick. With all finished it off shimmer powder on our cheeks and chests. We looked at each other and Maya says, "Damn we look sexy ladies!" We all giggle and I say, "Next step four!" which of course is outfits. We decided to all wear dresses, but different kinds. Emma a white knee length summer dress that flows out, it was simple, yet beautiful. Manny wore a blue halter top dress that stopped mid-thigh, it looks super sexy. I decided on an emerald green mini strapless dress that was very flattering to my figure. Maya decide on a one strapped pink dress that stopped a little above her knees it looked amazing on her. We checked to make sure our outfits and makeup matched next Maya said, "Nails!" We all looked till we found the colors we wanted Emma chose to add some color to her outfit by painting her nails a light purple, Manny stayed true to her outfit and painted hers blue, Maya decided silver to add some flare and I decided to keep mine simple and paint them black. We looked at our nails compared to out makeup and clothes to make sure it blends than I said, "Onto the final step ladies! Shoes!" Shoes was easy to find, Maya picked out a pair of white four inch heels with pink polka dots on them, I picked a pair of black six inch heels (I am the shortest after all) with emerald detailing, Emma picked light purple three inch heels, and Manny picked black five inch heels with blue tied lace going down the heel. We looked at our final product and we all said at the same time, "Damn!" than we just broke out in insane laughter.
But then it was like it hit us why we were getting ready, what we were heading to. And the laughter slowly stopped and we sat in silence for a moment each of us thinking about what is about to happen. Emma finally says, "Look guys we will be in a public place they can't do anything in front of other people. Plus we all feel this unexplainable pull to them we can spend our lives questioning it or we can go tonight and let them explain it to us." We nod and start to get our stuff together. Once we all have our purses and phones we make our way back downstairs and out the door. We talk the whole walk to the dot trying to not thinking about what we're walking into, but it's kind of hard to forget. We manage to joke and laugh the whole way there though which I think helped calm us a lot. When we walked into the dot we quickly realized the guys were already there. As soon as we opened the door they were there ushering us to a table in the back corner of the restaurant. There was literally only the wait staff here, I'm sure the guys managed to scare everyone away they were very intimidating. They were all here except Spinner, but I imagine he isn't too far away. They pulled our chair out for us we were on one side of the table and they were on the other it was a little comforting to have the distance between us. We sat in silence for a while before Lucas finally spoke up he said, "I'm so sorry about last night Alli I never meant to frighten you. I just lost when they idiot touched you and it had me on edge." I nod slowly and say, "Okay. Well to make it up to me why don't you explain to me what you are and why seeing another male touch me made you lose it." He sits in thought for a minute before he finally says, "Do you ladies believe in the supernatural? The impossible?" I look at him strangely as Emma says, "Like werewolves and ghosts?" Jay chuckles and says, "Not quite try again." We all sit and think about it and then Manny says, "No." Maya nods and say, "It can't be." Emma says, "It's not possible." The guys are just waiting for one of us to say it and even though I don't want to because it makes this all suddenly real I know no one else will so I say, "Vampires." Owen smirks and says, "Ding, ding, ding we have a winner."
We all connect hands because we have started to slightly shake in fear. I wanted to tell them they were crazy that vampires weren't real, but we saw the proof with our own eyes last night the fangs, the speed, the strength and of course the string of countless missing people, it all makes sense now. Maya is the braves of the moment as she asks, "What do you want with us?" Surprisingly it's Sean who answers looking directly at Manny he tells us, "You are our mates." We freeze in complete and total shock and Manny says, "I'm sorry we're your what?" Lucas chuckles along with the other guys and says, "You are our mates, you're our loves, our forever. We have waited centuries for you and we are so glad we finally found you." As he says that he looks at me with an intensity in his eyes that makes me want to pass out, it's just so beautiful the way he is looking at me. Emma being the smartest at the moment asks, "How old are you?" Jay says, "Owen here is the second youngest he was changed in 1911 he was one the titanic we happened to be on it as well we saved his life, he was changed at 19. Seany here is the third youngest he was in the civil war he was changed at 20 in 1864. I am the second oldest and I was changed at 20 as well I was changed in 1773 I was a part of the Boston tea party, but I came across some trouble so Lucas saved me. Spinner is the youngest we literally changed him in 1989 and he was 18 when he was changed." I looked to Lucas and ask, "What about you." He looks at me and look down and says, "I um am the first vampire ever to be created and a witch changed me into this creature in 1692 at the age of 21, I reported a women for witchcraft in my hometown of Salem she was burned at the stake. To get back at me her mother turned me into the horrible beast and doomed me to this life. I killed a fourth of Salem before I gained control of the thirst and i turned about five people hoping to not be alone, but they all left me and eventually were all dumb enough to get killed."
I sit there digesting this information. Not only am I the mate of a vampire he is the first vampire and he is also 347 years old. Ok I was not expecting this at all. Maya trying to get all the facts asks, "So witches are real?" Lucas looks conflicted as he says, "Not anymore I wipe them out and used my power of persuasion to make a witch cast a binding spell on all the witches that were to be born in the future and after Salem if any witches managed to get around that spell well they keep it to themselves they all heard of the tragedies that befell the witches after one created me. The witch made me indestructible the only drawback she didn't think of is not even witches powers can kill me." Ok well now I'm a little scared of him, but I guess I can understand why he did it. I'm sure they all didn't use their powers for bad, but I'm also sure they didn't all use their powers for good as well the binding spell was a good idea. Manny asks, "What do you mean power of persuasion?" Sean chuckles and says, "We can convince people to do things they don't want to do it's a vampire power." I felt confused so I asked, "Why didn't you use it on us?" none of them chuckled, laughed, smirked, or even smiled at the thought of that Owen said looking straight at Maya, "We would never ever use that against you your our mates you deserve respect and the ability to make your own choices." The other guys nodded and I honestly have no idea what came over me but I said, "Lucas let's take a walk just you and me I want to get to know you." he looked shocked and the girls gasped as he asked, "Are you sure." I nod, stand up and say, "Yes I trust you." He smirks, gets up, offers me his arm than says, "Then lead the way milady." I giggle than look at the girls and say, "Look stay here if that's what you're comfortable with, but I believe that they won't hurt us and we need to give this a try we all feel the pull to them. I'll meet you back at my house around 10:30 we actually have to go to school tomorrow ladies." They nod and slowly they get up from the table and asks to guys to go for a walk with them as well. We all make our way out of the dot and head off in different directions.
Lucas and I walked in silence for a while before he finally said, "When's your birthday and how old will you be?" I laugh a little at the randomness of it, but I answer none the less, "My birthday is actually in two days and I'll be 15." He nods we continue going back and forth asking trivial questions trying to get to know each other. He finally asks, "Will your parents be a problem? Will I need to use my power on them?" I sigh and say, "They aren't around much, but yes you will have to use your power on them they want to arrange a marriage for me and Sav so they know we marry respectable people. It's not uncommon for there to be large age gaps just use you power to convince them you're who they chose for me Sav will question it, but he'll leave it be for a while." He nods and asks, "Why won't they be around much?" I launch into the whole tale about my family life after I finish he just pulls me close and says, "You have me, the girls, and the boys know you will always have family with us." I tear up a little and say, "Thank you that means a lot." We continue to walk, talk, laugh and just have fun till he walks me to the door of my house it seems I'm the last to get there since I hear giggling inside. I smile at Lucas as we reach the front door. I say, "I had a wonderful time tonight and even though it will take a while for me to wrap my head around this I'm willing to try." He smiled a real genuine smile than pulled me into a hug and spun me around. When he set me down I giggled than pulled a pen and some paper out of my purse I wrote down my number and handed it to him. I smiled and said, "Text handsome." He grabbed my hand and placed a gentle kiss on it and said, "Count on it gorgeous." I smiled one more time than hurried into the house before I passed out from all his charm. I joined in with the girls who were all telling stories of their nights. We stayed up another hour giggling and having a blast before we got ready for bed. Once we were all settled I checked my phone one last time before going to sleep I had one new text message it simple red: Good night Love I'll see you tomorrow night.] Well that should be interesting I texted back: Goodnight!] Today was insane we found out vampires were real and not only are the real we are mates to them and not only am I a vampire mate, but my mate is the first ever vampire. Wow what a way to start high school! Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings!
