Chapter Seven- EXCUSE ME?

Hehehe… sorry? I will update as much as possible!

"EXCUSE ME?" I shouted at the top of my lungs, throwing in a bout of colorful language as well. Luckily we were in our dorm room and a teacher was less likely to hear me. Unluckily, I am an unlucky person and a teacher just happened to be passing our room at the time. I didn't get detention, but I did get a long winded lecture about why cursing was wrong. All it did was make me want to curse more. At least my creative juices were flowing.

"Why she feels the need to use YOU as an example of her all powerful bitchiness I don't understand but it wasn't really completely unexpected," said Rose, giving me something between a sympathetic look and an eye roll. She was just lucky that I knew how she worked enough that I wouldn't take something like that offensively.

"Okay, well self-righteous bitch of a queen aside, I still need to figure out a way out of this… how come your mom is letting this happen? Isn't she kind of like a queen in the dhampir world?" I asked, giving Rose a look. I had noticed that every time someone mentioned her mom it was like a light switch; she tensed up and glared at whoever had said the fateful 'M' word.

"I don't want to talk about it."

"Meanie"

"Jerk"

"Bitch"

"Human"

"EXCUSE ME!" we just looked at each other and laughed. Any tension was gone and everything was fine again. Well, on the outside. I knew that Rose and her mom had problems but I felt bad for both of them. Rose didn't understand, but neither did her mother. Me and my mom were always really close and I felt sad that Rose never got to experience something like that.

"Rose, what am I going to do?" I asked meekly from underneath my covers. For some reason they kept it wicked cold in here ALL THE TIME and it always felt like if you moved some part of your body would fall off. At least after days that you had training. And I repeat, ALL THE TIME. "I mean, I wouldn't mind going back to my mom and Kayden but I really like it here, you know? I feel like even though I don't fit in with everyone, I've never felt so at home in my life. Am I making sense? I promise I don't need to be committed…"

"Don't worry, I'm sure that if worse comes to worse I can assassinate the queen and you can stay," said Rose flippantly, grinning at my shocked expression.

"Um… I love you Rose, but you getting thrown in jail is probably worse than me getting kicked out of school. Although, I guess Dimitri could visit you…" that earned me a pillow to the face, which of course I had to return. Man, talking, pillow fights, maybe we should have truth or dare next.

"Truth or dare?" said Rose with an odd look on her face. Oops, I didn't mean to say that out loud… now she'll really have me committed. "Perfect!" well, no one ever said that girl night was supposed to be painless. And if this was going to be my last night… er, day in school, that I was going to use it wisely. Rose was texting now, most likely inviting Lissa and… well I don't really know who else. Ugh.

"Rose who did you invite." I almost didn't want to know.

"Um… Lissa, Christian, Mason, and… Adrian," she grinned evilly after the last name, "We have fifteen minutes before they get here. Spill."

And spill I did.

Okay, I realize that this was a very short, very annoying filler chapter but I wanted the truth or dare to be its own chapter. I might even have to make it two ;) Please review and tell me anyTRUTH OR DARE IDEAS PLEASE you have!
