" Amadio..Amadio what's the matter? Why did you just leave like that ? What did Coralline say?" Ileana's face so close to mine calmed me down I did not understand what had happened to myself why I had had such a strong reaction to one young humans girls presence like I had never done before but one simple look from her had sent my mind spiraling downwards it is a miracle that I had made it out of there before I did something to ruin it all and done exactly what his instincts had told him to do take this beautiful girl and lean her head back ever so slightly to expose the exquisite paleness of her beautiful neck put my lips to that wonderful heartbeat I had seen jumping right there seconds after I had seen her and breath in that exquisite smell of her and then drink as if from a fountain that blood I already knew would be like some sort of wonderful elixir to take me to places far off and naught thought of, but something held me back because as much as I wanted to drink from this beautiful goddess I knew I would rather spend time with her and finding out anything and everything I could about her it has always been said that vampire were able to dazzle and bend the impressionable minds of mortals but this is the first time in my hundred odd years that I have looked into a mere humans eyes and knew I would do anything this exquisitely pale little woman asked be it may anything horrific . My head had been clouded the second I caught the scent of her and almost totally fogged over when she had sighed and that wonderful perfume that was her had invaded his normally completely astute senses but being outside and breathing in the fresh albeit as fresh as New York could be and my head was clearing I shook it a little bit just to clear it more so and answered Ileana's insistent questions " who is she Ileana who was that girl" I demanded as out of breath as a person who didn't need to breath could be "she is a new student Coralline De'Chantal I read her file she just got in this morning and spoke with Uncle Xavier why? What is it that she said to get you so riled up? You sped right out of there after you talked to her!" She questioned and I replied " I don't know she didn't say anything in particular at all to get me so on edge it was just her she threw me off she smelled so alluring I wanted to throw her down on that table right then and there I could barely hold myself back from doing exactly that tell me, What was in her file? Who is she? where is she from?" " Well you already know her name, and she is obviously originally from France her family was immigrating here on a ship when she was 6 years old, on the voyage over her whole family, her mother, father, older sister and brother all died from an outbreak of influenza on the ship, amazingly enough she survived the entire epidemic and being without barely any food the entire time from when her family died till the ship docked she was immediately put into foster care and she has been there ever since she has lived in New York mainly and a couple of the burbs' surrounding us she is a very good student and an artist in most senses of the word she is actually quite a girl and to think she made such a remarkable impression on our Amadio " she tried to but didn't contain a little giggle. I glared at her and she just rolled her eyes and looked at the other's, my family, Gabriel with his light brown hair had an arm protectively around Ileana how funny as If I would hurt Illi' I love her I wouldn't hurt her if she did something 100 times as bad as teasing me but that would be love for you, and Pierre-Louis so intense his eyes were as he gazed down at his petit amanti Celia-Élise like a tiny little fairy queen she was and such a contrast to Pierre-Louis Him being so tall and broad shoulder with the dark and intensely dark violet eyes smoldering down on her and her look back up into his gaze her ice blue eyes practically make steam with their combination. "Lets just go up to the rooms I cant be around all these people I cant take all there scents around me" I muttered and we all walked back inside together and over to the elevator where I typed in the code that was next to the call button the elevator went straight up to the top 3 floors, the families home no one could get up there unless they knew the code and know one knew the code besides the family. The walked into the elevator and waited the few seconds the super fast elevator took to get to the sixth floor and 1st of the family floors walking in there and looking around he realized how lucky he was that Xavier had tooken him in to his home just look at this place high ceiling and a beautiful crystal chandelier hang down casting a soft golden glow over everything the golden wood floor softened by a hand woven Italian rug a set of Irish Chippendale side tables on either side of a long deep couch with cashmere throw tossed over them and two early Victorian chair flanking either side and a Queen Anne daybed who actually commissioned it to be done in 1704 the wall was covered in paintings and pictures covered the walls . I sat down on the daybed and laid back as Pierre-Louis and Celia-Élise
Sat down together on the long couch and Gabriel sat down on a chair and Ileana hopped up onto his lap with the grace of which only a ballerina which Ileana was of course. She perked up and said "So really what is happening petit frère?" "What is it about this Coralline that has you in this tizzy" "Tizzy? I am not in any such thing! I am a man and men do not get into tizzy's?" …"Pffft!"snorted the laughing Ileana and Celia-Élise rolled her eyes. "Okay so really what is with the tizzy?" "It's just her you know just so incredibly beautiful she was so innocent and frail looking I just feel this incredible urge to I don't know protect her as idiotic as that sounds after extolling upon the incredible allure of her blood." I grinned sarcastically Celia- Élise spoke up and her melodic voice surprised me still after all these years of hearing it for such a delicate looking girl she had this strong melodic resonance. "Do you think you will be able to behave normally around her, ? Ileana sais that you have almost everyone of your classes together" She bit her lip and scrunched her eyebrows together and looked up at me "Who are you talking about Celia-Élise?" said Celestine our "Aunt" was extraordinarily beautiful short and petite with a waist I could span with my hands skin like a perfect pearl, long curling red hair to just above her waist cerulean blue eyes rimmed with pitch black eyelashes a tiny curved up little nose and a mouth just like a rosebud just as red and in complete bloom wide and smiling with high arching red brows that framed her face off perfectly. She was like a mother to all of them so caring. "Oh we are just talking about this new girl who Amadio is in lovvvee with. She giggled and so did Ileana if you didn't know that they were not related and they really were not teenage girls they could sure fool you. "Oh yes I'm so excited about Coralline? That's who your talking about I'm assuming she's the only new arrival who was scheduled to arrive today she is so so talented drawing, painting, and singing and the piano if my memory is correct yes?" She asked. Ileana buried her face in Gabriel shoulder trying to smother the laugh that she was struggling not to let out but couldn't hold back and it burst forth and bubbled out as she held on to her sides it was like it was contagious all of them began to laugh one at a time Gabriel with a low chuckle sounding first then Pierre-Louis with a low grumble of a laugh that sounded like it started deep in his stomach then Celia-Élise's composure broke last of all's as she laughed from the bottom of her toes it seemed as Celestine looked around at the all with a puzzled look on her face and finally looked to me with a question on her face I rolled my eyes and shrugged. Ileana in turn was the first to regain her composure and began to explain to Celestine who sat down and begin to smile as Illi got further into the explanation an then she seemed to put a stern face on and turned to the other and said "Now you stop this making fun of Amadio" and then the porcelain veneer cracked and a little laugh escaped from behind her hands held close to her mouth an then pulled it back together and said in a rush oh Amadio I knew you would find someone eventually I just knew you wouldn't spend forever by yourself I'm so happy for you!!"
"Wha-wha-what are you talking about she is human I am not that would not work in any way." "Well how do see this working out then" Burst out Ileana "What do you mean Ileana there's nothing to be done, nothing can become of these misleading feelings I certainly wont be acting on them" I replied heatedly Ileana started to reply but Celestine interrupted and spoke up "But you said you knew you said you were drawn to her! Don't you realize what this is? You love her Amadio!" "I know I love her cant you see that that's why nothing will become of it!" "I have to leave I'll be back in a couple of days I need to clear my head" " Wait you cant leave school begins on Monday there are so many things we need you to help with most of the teachers wont be here until Monday night "
"I know and I'm sorry but if I don't get away for a while I might do something I will end up regretting."
