Chapter 10: The Death of the Month of June
Willow, Lilly, Sky, and I walk down the boardwalk looking for something to do.
"Look the bookstore", Sky shouts pointing at the store as she jumps up and down.
"Let's go in. I could use a new book", I say.
"Yeah, I keep rereading the Twilight series", Willow agrees as she holds the door open for Lilly.
"So have I", Lilly whispers as we walk by a group of teens reading.
We walk around the store and browse the bookshelves. We all get one book each but I know I could buy more as well as Sky. Sky and I love to read and when we were human we would spend hours reading books. One of the reason why I chose to make her a vampire, we connected on so many levels.
We all get the book Paper Towns By: John Green. Then we headed off to ride some rides. We rode them for so long that I think my head will never stop spinning.
"We should find the boys", Lilly shouts over the music as we start to leave the concert that was held at the boardwalk tonight. The music was really good and I couldn't stop myself from dancing and singing along with the band.
I agree and the others do as well, it doesn't take long to find them. I roll my eyes as I see David getting yelled at by a cop. Nightstick held under his neck, he fakes gagging noises which makes me laugh and the boys seem amused as well. Lilly, Sky, and Willow don't pay attention since this happens so often.
"Leave now", the cop booms. "Don't make this harder then this has to be."
David glares and nods his head to tell the boys to leave. He sees me and smirks then glances back at the cop one last time before heading my way.
"Really David", I ask shaking my head.
"What? I was just having a friendly conversion." He slings his arm around my shoulders. I don't say anything as we make our way back to the bikes.
David and I enter the cave first and without warning he puts me over his shoulder and runs at full speed to his wheelchair. Everyone laughs as I yell at David to stop but deep down I' am really enjoying it.
"Not cool Davey", I smack his shoulder as he places me on his lap. His arms wrap around my waist and I lean my head back against his muscular body.
"Who wants to get the takeout", David yells.
"I'll get the eats", Marko yells back already heading for his bike.
"I bet he gets Chinese again", I grumble. Don't get me wrong I love Chinese food but we've had it for two weeks straight.
"I bet he doesn't", Paul whispers in my ear.
"Wanna bet on it Paul?"
"Sure Rainy. Let's say ten dollars."
"You're on!"
"The eats have arrived", Marko yells jumping down to us sometime later.
Marko throws me a box and I open it to find white rice. "Chinese. Good choice Marko", I smirk at Paul.
"Not fair", Paul shouts as he hands me my money.
"It is fair Paul. Don't be such a baby", Willow shouts from her bed.
Paul fakes a laugh and walks to one of the couches with a container of noodles. I run up to him and hug him. He wraps his arms around my waist. "Keep your hands to yourself pervert", I say as I feel his hands travel.
"Your no fun," He pouts and I roll my eyes.
I sit on Willow's bed with her as we eat. We listen to Metro Station and Ok Go. Along with some Aerosmith, Nirvana, The Rolling Stones, and so many more. Willow and I both love music and find nothing more relaxing then sitting in the dark with the music blaring. We talk to each other but I take a glance to see what the others are up to.
Lilly and Sky talk together and from what I can hear the topic they are discussing is Wizard Rock music and just Harry Potter in general. Marko and David are seated next to each other talking about how well the party went. Dwayne and Paul are rocking out to the music blaring from their stereo making complete fouls out of themselves. I smile at how things have gone right back to normal. I was weak and then I got better and it seemed like those last few days never happen.
It felt like that all June long and tonight was the last night of June. I call it the death of June. I'm sure July will be just as great but it just means Summer is getting closer to the end of it life for another year. Tonight has to be the best night any of us has ever had.
David end this month with a killing spree. A bonfire is being held at the beach by who other then surfer boys. Music pumps out of a stereo and we all dance. David had no trouble in getting us to hang out with these guys. He can persuade people like no other vampire.
"Not to Touch the Earth", by The Doors comes on. I maybe dead but music makes me feel so alive. My energy level goes up and I need it. I'm about to have a running competition with two of the eight surfers.
"Think you can keep up girly", one of them asks.
"The question is can you keep up little boys", this causes my gang to laugh and make fun of the surfers.
Paul gives us the single to go and I take off at a pretty normal speed. Fast enough so they think they have a chance. For the whole way I have them right on my heels. When the finish line that Willow made comes into view I go a little faster. I cross the finish line and do a back flip. The two surfers curse as both the groups come over to us.
"She wins boys", David says wrapping me up in his arms.
"Big deal", the leader of the surfers says. "So she's a fast runner that doesn't impress me."
I glare and David chuckles his evil laugh with his eyes full of hunger. "Want to see something impressive boys?"
"What is so impressive", another surfer asks.
"This", David says and then bares his fangs. The rest of us follow and the surfers scream trying to find a way to escape. We let them run, they can't get far anyway. Then we pounce going in every direction.
I lose the others around me as I take the blood of the one surfer who asked if I could keep up with them. I laugh evilly in my head, how could they be so stupid. They knew we had to be trouble, they seen David get in trouble loads of times, I remember seeing them on the boardwalk.
We burn the bodies and sit around the fire. I watch the bodies disappear as I sit in between David's legs. My head resting against him and his arms wrapped around me. I start to drift off and I feel David kiss the top of my head. Tonight was so much fun. We stayed at the party all night making them think we were human and out for a good party and good beer. That took a lot out of me so I'm not surprised I'm so tired.
"Let's go Rayne", David whispers in my ear and picks me up. I look around from under my eyelids. The other girls have fallen asleep too; they are on the boys bikes slumped over with their fingers gripping on tight to the boys jackets. I get in the same position, not even the motorcycles engines could wake me up, and not even the boys yelling and goofing off could. I'm too tired to notice anything.
David lays me down and a stir a little. "Sleep well Davey", I mumble resting my head on my soft warm pillows.
"You too Rainy", he covers me up. Then he kisses my lips softly and runs his finger through my hair and then down my cheek. With one last kiss his takes off to sleep in the back with the rest of the boys.
I dream of what July has in store. I hope it has adventure, and danger. It has to if it wants to out beat June. Sure I almost died but June was filled with excitement and danger. After my near death experience I wanted to live my vampire life in the best way possible. So I hope July is up for the challenge and is ready to be adventurous and dangerous.
