A/N: Hi guys! I wanted to share with you guys how surprised I am. I didn't think at all that I'd lure in a huge audience of readers. Thank you to all who support me :D You are all my inspirations. And I do NOT mean to offend any blondes who are reading this! I am an authentic blonde myself, so if you have an issue with them, PLEASE let me know ^^ Chapter Six!
*Romania's POV*
"Oh, I can't remember what that muscle is called!" I couldn't be angry at the paper, but it was frustrating me. Anatomy was an essential class. I had to take it. I really had no choice. It was one of those brick walls in my way. Sort of like England sometimes.
I paid my dues at the café, and returned to my dorm. Ana was there with Allison, and Maria. I was startled that I didn't see Amelia here with her twin sister. I thought those two were as different as oil and vinegar, but they were VERY close.
"Oh, welcome home, Vlad," Ana greeted with her sweetly childish smile that glittered like a thousand suns.
I'd realized Aleks wasn't here. Thank goodness for that! He was always hanging around, and no, I wouldn't have a problem, but HE WAS EVERYWHERE!
I put my books down on the Hungarian-imported coffee table, and went to go get something to eat. Of course, everyone was peeking, and staring at me. Ugh. The damn vampire rumors had everyone watching me when I had to fulfill my dietary needs. It was a bit bothersome.
I decided to skip my quick snack, and get straight to homework. I didn't want to, but I had to face it. With guests, I wouldn't be able to get any eating done.
Maria Vargas approached me with her huge Italian smile. I didn't even want to know why she was over here.
"Hi, Vlad. I just wanted to come over here and ask you a question." She sat her petite frame beside me, and smiled from ear to ear. "Is it true that you're a vampire?"
Oh, the question I hated most! But, hey, I had to give her points for being so straightforward. No one really asked me that question before. Everyone just assumed, or dodged the entire stereotype. She was great for that.
"Maria, I am not a vampire. I just have irregularly long canines. It's just the way I was born. I can't control that." I sounded a bit standoffish, but I couldn't help it. That question made my blood boil below my skin. Everyone thought that, but that didn't mean she HAD to ask.
I gathered up my books. "Excuse me, Maria. I must get to class early to study for the test." I left the library, and made my way to my homeroom. It was bustling with last-minute studying, and frustration. College was about staying on top of things. Not to joke around, and blow everything off. I was a firm believer of trying, but I'll admit, I do slack off sometimes.
I strode to my seat, and slouched in it. I didn't want to be seen, for I've had enough vampire accusations to last me a lifetime.
*Allison's POV*
Class was horribly boring today. The professor just kept talking. It was not the way I liked to learn.
"So, Arthur," I heard Romania start from behind me. "Why does a blonde write TGIF on her shoes?"
England started chuckling. "Oh, I don't know. Why?"
"Toes go in first." They both started laughing hysterically. I knew the jokes were intended to be offensive to me, but I was ignoring them. I couldn't let two unhappy boys bring me down.
"Okay, okay. Here's a good one," Romania began. "Why is it good to have a blonde in the passenger's seat?"
"Oh, I don't know. Why?" England said in a false tone.
"You can park in the handicap zone." He cackled, and licked his lips precisely. "Why did the blonde wear condoms on her ears?"
I was getting angry now. I wasn't THAT blonde, and yet they had the guts to say these so loud, I could hear.
I turned around, and glared at him. "WHY, Vlad? Why do they?"
The vampire-appearing blonde smiled daringly. "So they don't get hearing AIDS."
Britain backed away. He was the smart one here. He didn't want to experience the wrath of Allison Jones. He learned from his experience.
I pounded my fist on his desk. "I DON'T take blonde humor lightly, and you ought to know that."
"And I don't take vampire humor lightly. I hear you, waltzing around with Ana, and Kayla, and Veronica , telling jokes. It's my turn to be the one telling jests."
At that moment, the bell rang, and Vlad hurried right out. I felt bad because he WAS right. I DID tell humorous stories, and jokes, not realizing how they would've affected other people. He was just giving me a taste of my own medicine. NOW I understood.
"So, are we still hosting that slumber party tonight?"
I glanced behind me, and saw Anasztázia. "Yeah, sure. At your dorm still?"
She mumbled confirmation, waved, and left on her merry way.
I felt bad about the whole Vlad situation. If the party was at Ana's dorm, then maybe I'd see him there. But the chances of that happening were slim to none. He was a boy. He wouldn't be allowed at a girls' party. She might just chase him out so he could go sleep at Britain's for the night.
I shrugged, and exited the classroom. I couldn't let a minor setback kill the rest of my day.
*Anasztázia's POV*
"Snacks. Check. Sleeping bag. Check. Party games. Check."
This was all so lame, and childish. I'm hosting a five year olds birthday party here. I WANTED to host a college party. This was just pathetic.
My guests started arriving one by one. First Maria, then Amelia and Allison. Kayla and Veronica arrived together, which hadn't surprised me much.
"So this is it?" Maria questioned, displeased.
"What do you mean, Maria? I think this is a fine party."
"Well…" Amelia started.
"Don't you criticize my organizing skills, missy. I'm not too sharp." I pushed Amelia into the tiny bathroom. "Just go get changed, and don't be SO sarcastic all the time."
We all changed one by one, sitting in a circle once we were all done. This had an uncomfortable silence encompassing the entire room. That is what I hated.
"So, anyone have any crushes this year?" Maria asked, painting her toes hot pink.
THAT dreaded question. I thought of myself as asexual at this point. I thought the male students at this school were cute, but I wasn't physically attracted to them. It was an atypical situation.
Allison spoke up first. "I hope I have some sort of chance with Austria. That would be nice."
Amelia snickered. "That boy is nothing but an over-obsessive neat freak. I'm not sure what you see in him, Ally."
Her twin became flustered. She knew what she saw him, and even if we didn't understand it, that was her views.
"How about you, Ana?"
"Um… No, I don't have any type of college sweetheart, if that's what you're asking."
"There has to be some type of guy you're into," Kayla mused aloud.
Well, the only man I found myself clinging to was Aleks. I didn't feel any romantic senses towards him. He was just a friend for whom I shared secrets, and books with. That's all I thought of him as.
Speaking of Aleks, he made a surprise visit with Louisiana. They weren't invited, but I had no problem that they showed up.
"Hello, Ana, and company," Svalbard greeted.
"Hi, Aleks, Louis. What brings you here?"
"Selicia told me to come," Louis responded.
"I thought I'd drop off some more books. I found these in the fiction section of the library. It's mythical fiction. I was brought up with this, since Norway believes in it all."
I grinned happily. "Köszönöm szépen, Aleks. It was very nice of you."
"No problem, Ana. I'll see you later."
The two exited the room after their brief visit. Huh. I was starting to think that they came here for no reason.
I avoided the questions about boys, and I was thankful for that.
*Maria's POV*
I find it odd how Ana dodged the whole boy conversation. I would've gladly told her that I had my eyes set on the german prize. I don't mean Germany either. I mean his platinum blonde brother Prussia. He was so dreamy!
I started sketching out a new design for my fashion class. I was drawing a blank. Maybe I should just look at my surroundings. Disney pajamas wouldn't help me though.
I got up from the comfy pink chair, and trotted back to the group of girls... and Romania. He was looking at all of us tank top clad girls like we were his pray. It was just a little creepy.
"Hello, Vlad. I thought you'd be over Arthur's house."
"I was, but then I decided that this was MY dorm as well as hers."
That kind of ended the party right there. Everyone left since no one could really trust poor Romania. The vampire rumors were so vicious. It was horrible.
I walked back to Feliciano's dorm, and went straight to bed. It was a very fun, and enchanting night.
A/N: The foreign language you saw there was Thank you so very much in Hungarian ^^ Just thought I'd let you all know. Love you all!
