School Sucks In General: The Chronicles of "Vampire Anonymous"

[A/N: hey guys sorry it's been so long! School's just been real hectic and then I had to go to New York- but I'm back now and on Spring Break so hopefully I can make up for the loss of time! Sorry if this chap isn't the greatest but I needed a filler like chapter to connect chapter 6 and 8 in order for the story to run smoothly again. Enjoy!]

Chapter 7: When Things Get Weird

Third Person POV (M):

So far this town is pretty interesting. Funny thing, it seemed like a boring place at first. There is a boy at the school that seems worth noticing. Ew, don't be stupid! Not in that way… I mean he's different. I'm different too. I'm sure he has a secret, and I'm going to figure his out before he does mine. Until further notice I'll address him as Danny Darko. Danny Darko is tall and thin, with pale skin and dark eyes. He has luscious black hair that covers his eyes like the night–

Wait! WTF was that? Uh… that so did not happen! No! No! No!

Maddy took the pen and quickly scratched out what she had just written.

Danny Darko is tall and thin, with pale skin and dark eyes. He has luscious black hair that covers his eyes like the night– He has pale skin, long dark hair and is tall and thin.

Okay there. That's better, and a lot less scary… I mean luscious? Really? Where the hell did that come from? She closed the cover of the worn journal resting in her lap and leaned her head against the rough wall.

Maddy shook her head and breathed deeply. Probably just too much sugar or something… Still… Why was I intrigued by that guy? He was more annoying than anything. Wasn't he? Ugh! It appeared there would be more problems for her in this town then she originally thought.

She peered out the open door of the mausoleum at the rain pouring down outside. Her second day in the cemetery. It wasn't so bad, but she knew she would have to find somewhere else to stay– and soon.

She tried to concentrate on making plans, even tried doodling for a while, but her thoughts kept drifting back to that Danny Darko. She hated it– she hated him. Again, music began to echo through the old mausoleum's damp walls. "The Pros and Cons of Breathing" by Fall Out Boy. The song sounded eerie with the backdrop of rain and the cold echo from the cold building.

"Whoa! I want to hate you half as much as I hate my… Self! I knew that I could crush you with my voice…"

Maddy looked out from the darkness and her smile had a hint of madness to it, her eyes sparkled with a demonic gleam. Alright then Danny Darko, She thought with playful menace. I'm not sure what type of game this is we're playing, but believe me… Her smile grew, enhancing her creepy expression. I am going to win.


Third Person POV (V):

Vlads head snapped toward the window as lightning struck outside. He thought… he'd seen something… It looked like the dark outline of a person against the bright flash. Could it have been–?

"Yes! I win again! Haha! Whoo! Man, you really suck at this game huh Vlad?"

Vlad moved his attention back to Henry who had been jumping around like an idiot doing what was most likely supposed to be a victory dance of some sort. Supposed to be.

Vlad chuckled and winked at his friend. "Haha! Not just that game. I suck at all videogames."

Henry smiled mischievously, "Dude, you're a vampire– you suck at everything."

They both collapsed to the floor laughing until they were clutching their sides. Henry wiped away a tear and took a bite out of a chocolate chip cookie. Speaking through the crumbs he said, "So what about that new girl?"

Vlad shrugged, "She's in most of my classes, mostly a freak, and kind of annoying from what I can tell."

Henry blinked and grabbed another cookie from the plate. "Oh, I just meant she was hot."

Vlad rolled his eyes, of course. Henry would be checking out her looks. Vlad snorted, "What? Thinking of making a move on her or something? I don't know man… she looks kinda bloodthirsty."

Henry smirked, "Bloodthirsty? You're one to talk." He took a swig of coke and examined Vlad closely. "You don't seem to like her too much…"

Vlad looked up in surprise, "Why would you say that? I never said I hated her. Just said she was annoying. To tell you the truth, I think she hates me."

Henry looked out the window thoughtfully, "Maybe you both have it messed up."

Vlad wasn't sure how he was supposed to answer that. After a minute he just shrugged and changed the subject. "Whatever, let's just put the movie in."

Henry's head snapped back to look at Vlad, he looked slightly dazed for a moment and then relented; "Sure, we can watch the movie now if you want." He smiled, "I was getting tired of beating you at videogames anyway."

Vlad smiled and popped the movie in, but his thoughts were on Maddyline Crow. Henry just didn't get it. He himself didn't get it. But there was something about that girl that made Vlad cautious. Plus there was the fact that she was a girl. He wasn't sure what that had to do with it, but for some reason, it made him hate her.

[A/N: Okay there you go chapter 7! Again sorry for the long time no see, promise to write more! Please review! Thanks for reading! Love you guys!]
