Another month went by. Charlie sat by me, only giving me company. I would bump with Peter from time to time but I couldn't stay mad at him. He had a hunted look in his face as if I was the one that broke up with him... I-
"Belle?" I blink out of my though and stared at Charlie. "Did you hear what I said?"
"Charlie... If we dated-" He stared at me warily. I rolled my eyes at him. I knew better by now, he didn't like me like that. "I'm talking in a metaphor." He relaxed. "Do you think my parents would scare you enough, to get you to respect me?" He smirk.
"Yes. They are legend around this town."
"Would you break up with me... If I tried to have sex with you?" He frown, and stared at me with an unknown expression.
"Did you?"
"Did I what?"
"Tried to have sex with Peter?" I glared.
"He's my boy-" I took a deep breath. "Was my boyfriend-"
"Your 17 years old, your too young for that." I glared at him annoyed.
"So your telling me you never had sex with Cleopatra?"
"Were older." He said simply, and like that our nice conversation went to hell.
"Look your not my father! You don't have the right to tell me, what age should I have sex! Are you insane?"
"Apparently I'm a sucker for punishment!" He stood up and storm out. I fume watching him go. I saw Peter. He had the same haunted look on his face. He gave me a quick look, and was about to walk away, like he always did.
"Wait." I stood up and ran to him. He didn't look at me. "I'm sorry."
"For what?" His tone was bitter.
"Pushing you... I don't know what came over me... I ruin a good thing." He sigh and stared at me. "I- I missed you"
"I missed you too."
"Your not aloud to be serious with me-"
"Were kids." I glared at him. He sigh. "No... I was supposed to keep it innocent with you-"
"Why?"
"Belle..." He looked around nervously.
"Do you want to get out here-"
"We have class." I frown.
"So?"
"Belle."
"I want to talk to you."
"We are talking."
"I want to talk to you somewhere... More private..." I remember when Charlie was in trouble. She was against talking in a school properties, so I went with it now...
"Your house." I saw in his face, he was just trying to cover his ass.
"Can we go to yours?"
"Belle... I don't think-"
"Please? I wont stay long."
"Ok, five minutes. Then your back here." I nodded. We droved in silence. I was too paranoid to speak. Once at the house, we got out, walked next to each other, he open the door, and waited on the door for me to enter... We walked straight to his bedroom without saying anything. He closed the door once I got in. "Ok. Were alone."
"Peter... Maybe... WE should-" I stared at the bed, and for the first time I notice we were alone in his bedroom. I had a feeling we were truly alone... Peter notice where my eyes were and gave me a crooked smiled. He walked towards the bed and sat slowly and seductively. I gulped and walked towards him, and sat next to him. My heart felt like it was trying to beat out of my chest. I was so nervous... We stared at each other's eyes for a long time, then slowly as if he was scared he would break me, he put a hand on my cheek. I closed my eyes, when his hands made contact with my skin, I felt him leaned towards me, but he was doing it painfully slow. I started to breath fast. Our lips touched, and we started to kiss. It started slow, he lay me down on the bed slowly, and once he was on top of me, the kiss became passionated, then hungry. I started to take off his shirt like I always did, and this time he let me.
He stared at me as I broke the kiss to take off his shirt. "Were not doing anything... We'll keep it PG 13." I giggle, and pulled him back to my lips. I fell his erection followed by his moan. I waited for him to pulled back as I enjoyed the seconds we had left... But he didn't, he moaned louder and started to suck on my breast. I arched my back, to put as much boob into his mouth as I could. He went to my chest, then to my neck. His teeth scraped my neck...
Then he bit me... I gasp surprised at the pain. That's when I notice he started to drink my blood. I yelped and pushed him off me. He fell to the floor hard. He sat up and stared at me in shock... I gasp horrified. There was blood on his lips... Mine!
I put a hand on my neck out of instinct and pulled back staring at it... It came out bloody... Tears started falling down my cheek...
"You...Bit...Me?" He stood up and took a step towards me.
"Belle let me-"
"Stay...Away...From...Me." He was breathing hard. I saw him looking at my eyes. I looked away from him, grabbed my shirt and ran. I felt him running after me, but for some reason... Today I was faster than him. I got in his car and drove away to school.
I ran to my car fast and drove in. I knew I was hysterical, when I still had my shirt in my hand, Charlie stared at me in shock and I ignored the stares of my fellow students as I was in school without a shirt... And just sped away to the house. I ran into the house, scaring my parents for the first time.
My mom gasp horrified, and stared at me. "Baby." I just stared at her...
"Mom...Dad..." I could see they wanted to get closed to me, but they looked scare of me over reacting... Yeah that ship had sail... "Vampires are real..." It wasn't a question. It was a statement... They just stared at me...
"Honey... Who... Attack you?" I glared at them, that's hen I realized I was still breathing, and without a shirt. I put my shirt fast, and took a step back, when they tried to get closer.
"It doesn't matter-"
"Of course it does-"
"Are you... guys.." I frown, and started to shake. "Are... you... guys... Vampires?" They stared... And I got my answer...
"Honey... You weren't suppose to find out like this." My dad looked pissed, but he was trying to hide it. "We wanted you to know on your 18 birthday-" They walked towards me, but I back away fast.
"Who are you?"
"Excuse me?" That was my dad again.
"Who are my real parents?" My mom gasp, as if I just stab her in the heart. A tear fell down her cheek. I just hurt her feelings... I was too freak out to care.
"Honey." My mom's voice broke. "You are ours..."
"That's such a thing a vampire would say." My dad glared at me. Never in my life had he looked at me like that, I never seen my mom crying. I took another step towards the door scared. For the first time in my life. I was scared of my parents... If that's what they were. I didn't know about vampires, but I knew they were made, not created. My... The vampire took a deep breath as to try to calm down.
"Honey.." My mom was crying now. "You are our daughter. I gave birth to you." I stared at her not believing her.
"I dont' believe you!" I open the door and ran to my car. I got in and drove off. I sped away and drove, and kept driving, and driving, and driving... Until my car died. I put my head on the steering wheel frustrated. I took a deep breath and looked around nervously. I was in a park, where there was a lake. I ran towards the lake, and stopped at the shore, staring at the water.
"WHY?!"
If I was truly the daughter of vampires... And I was not ready to accept that yet... That meant, that I was meant to be one some day, and the though terrified me. I didn't want to be an immortal monster...
"Belle?" I stood up fast and turned towards him.
"How the fuck did you find me?" He pursed his lips. Clearly not going to explain. I took a deep breath and sat down, is not like my brain could absorb new information right now... I sat back down, and stared at the water numb. "I can't deal with new information right now anyways..."
"I did tell you to leave it alone." I glared at him, as he sat down next to me.
"You should of been more obvious, NOT mysterious. You pushed me into looking deeper into it!"
"I believe Cleo even told you to enjoy your life-"
"Who can enjoy life. When their fucking father intimidate everyone!"
"That's normal-"
"NO, is not THAT normal!" Tears started falling down my cheek. I stared at the water frustrated. It was April, wasn't winter now, but that water would be cold. I might be the daughter of vampires, but they were worried. My father freak out at the though of me swimming in cold water... Charlie, spend a night with me, saving me from hipotermia... I was some how human, some how... I can die-
"You honestly think, your going to jump in the water to drown your self, and I'm just going to stay here and watch?" I turned and stared. I totally forgot about him being here.
"Can vampires read minds?" He laughed amused.
"Is on your face."
"What is?"
"The realization, your still weak."
"I'm not on watch 24 hours a day." He gave me a secret smiled, that creep me out.
"Are you sure?" I smirk and put a hand on my neck, making Charlie notice the bite mark and glared.
"I'm sure. If I was protected 24/7 I wouldn't got this." Charlie's face turned dark.
"Who bit you?"
"I'm not saying."
"Your parents are going to find out, one way or another... That is if the poor bastard hasn't gone to your house yet, So he could bargain a deal-"
"Charlie... Can you tell me the truth?"
"Ok?" He seem wary.
"Why are my parent's so against you? Or Peter? They dont want me to find love?" He burst out laughing.
"You were supposed to learn about this world, on your 18th birthday-"
"Please?"
"I can't tell you a lot, but vampires have class..."
"All the kids at the school are rich-"
"By human standards... Yes, but by the vampires standards-"
"What are you?"
"I"m consider poor." I frown.
"Really?"
"Yes, really. My family are teachers at the school... They get paid well, a lot more than humans teacher... we invest the money like the rest of the vampires..."
"Ok.. So what is Peter?"
"He's middle class?"
"He's Ok, to date me?"
"To date you? Only while you were human-"
"We dated a month-"
"That was long enough."
"What do you know about it?"
"Nothing." He said secretly. I sigh and turned towards the water annoyed. I decided to ask another question, it was the first time, he was honest with me...
"What am I?"
"Your more than rich... Your a royal-"
"I don't live in a castle..."
"I'm pretty sure, your parents were going to move, to the real house, once you knew the truth... A lot of things were going to change when they open your eyes-"
"They are not my parents." I said bitterly. "They stole me from someone-" Charlie burst out laughing. I glared at him.
"Your parents may be royals, but they are not above the law. And that would be breaking a big law. That would mean, they got involve into the human world long enough to kidnap a kid. Besides if you weren't theirs, they would had killed you by accident a long time ago-"
"I"m human."
"Your mother gave birth to you Belle. Your blood is not appetizing to them."
"I see them, when I got my period-"
"That wasn't them wanting to kill you... That was them worried about you in a school full of vampires..." He laughed. "Let me tell you... We all wished, you would have stayed home... That was a weird experience for everyone..." I smiled. "Wait? Is that a smile?" My smiled got wider.
"Don't get use to it." He chuckle. "So... What class is Cleo?"
"She's rich."
"Really?"
"Yep."
"She was with you..." I said in hope.
"She broke it off after a few months. I knew it was just a fling. If I ever get married is someone from my own class." I laughed. He stared at me warily as if I just lost my mind.
"You had sex with her." He looked uncomfortable.
"Belle... Don't-" I sigh.
"You guys are vampires-"
"Were not high school students... Not really."
"How old are you?"
"Vampire age? Or what age was I turned?"
"What age were you turned?"
"25."
"Peter?"
"Same.."
"What's going on? Why is everyone older than me?"
"We been older than you for centuries Belle." He smirk. I glared at him. He knew damn well what I meant. He sigh.
"You only had one more year of high school and your parents were moving from Minnesota.. So they put you in college." I frown.
"Shouldn't you guys be married by now then?"
"I... Declined... So did the vampires at the university to futher their careers-"
"So that means, I can too-"
"You should ask your parents." He said simply.
"They are not my parents." The bitterness came back.
"Don't be stubborn Belle. They are your real parents-"
"Because they raised me-"
"NO, they conceived you, they are your real parents whether you like it or not..."
"If I declined marriage-"
"I don't think is that easy for you... Your a royal, you need a husband-"
"For what?" I shooked my head annoyed. "Ok.. What if I choose you?" He stared at me, waiting for the punch line. "I'm serious."
"I don't like you like that..."
"Then why are you always around me?" He pursed his lips... SO There was a reason...
"Your not going to tell me aren't you?"
"Nope."
"Then fuck off." He stared.
"What?"
"You heard me.. Fuck off!"
"You want me to leave you here? Stranded, in the middle of nowhere?" I looked around nervously. And just like that I remembered I was out of gas. I glared at him, putting on a brave face. I took my cellphone out. DEAD. Seriously?
Charlie smirk. "Yes. I do." He sigh annoyed at me.
"Don't be stubborn-"
"How did you find me?" He pursed his lips. "Just admit you like me-"
"I dont like you." He sounded sincere, making me feel self conscious, and sort of embarrassed. "I would never be with someone like you." I stared.
"Why?"
"You'll understand one of this day-"
"Please. Don't tell me is because of my class-"
"Might be one of the reasons..." He took a deep breath. "Look... I think Peter is an idiot... But I must admit he's a brave idiot..."
"He wasn't brave.." I said bitterly.
"Are you kidding me? Getting with you? Knowing how the temptation would be? Knowing who your parents are? Yet willing to be with you, ignoring the pain-"
"Pain?"
"Your..." He took a deep breath, and shook his head. "Is hard being near you... I can't imagine... Kissing you.." I started to breath hard, as he started to talk in a low husky voice. "Having your body pressed against his... Yet fighting the hunger..." He shook his head as to clear it.
That's when I realized it, and I just started to cry. I was freak out, by Peter being a vampire. I still didn't accept my parents because they were vampires, and here I was begging Charlie a VAMPIRE to give us a chance...
"Belle?" I turn to look at him. "Can I see your neck?"
"I don't want you to."
"You don't want me to find out who bit you?" I shook my head. "Was it Kyle?"
"No."
"Why are you protecting." He paused and seem to realized who it was when he said the word protecting. He sigh. "Peter. Your protecting Peter-" He stared at me with a frown. "Why are you crying?"
"I'm... Freaking out."
"You don't look like your freaking out... You look in pain." I turned my whole body towards him...
"I don't like the world I'm suppose to live in... I like the human world, a lot. Where you're free to choose who to date-"
"Royal's in England don't have much freedom-" I ignored his comment.
"I... I don't think I can handle school right now... or... The vampires... That are supposed to be my parents." Charlie glared. I started to cry harder.
"Belle... Please stop crying... Is not that bad really..."
"I... I'm confused."
"Why are you confused?" He whispered.
"Because... Of all the chaos in my life right now..." I leaned closer to him. "All I want is to be able to date you, or at least kiss you-" He stepped back so fast, I almost fell to the floor.
"Let me take you home... Your parents must be worried-"
"Why do you always run away from me?" He sigh.
"I told you... I'm not strong." I stood up annoyed, and walked towards him grabbing him by the arm.
"NO! You can't be this coward. We like each other lets-"
"What?" He glared at me. "Play boyfriend and girlfriend, for a few months, then when you're 18, you turn into a vampire, and get engaged to someone that's supposed to be better than me?" I stepped back at the though, but didn't let go of him.
"I choose my destiny-"
"NEW! FLASH! Princess! Your not a normal human being! You're a royal, your going to abide by rules. You don't choose crap! You get to do what your supposed to-"
"The hell I will! I rather die! No one is going to tell me who to love-" He stared at my hand, and I could see he was considering pulling his hand back, even if he hurt me, but he glared at me, waiting for me to let go. I wouldn't.
"You can do whatever the HELL you want. DON'T get me involved." I glared at him.
"So you wont be with me?"
"NO." I let go of him. He took a deep breath.
"Fine." I crossed my arms around my chest. "But if you walk away saying you don't want to be with me-"
"I don't-"
"You walk out for good. Don't talk to me, don't look at me, don't even breathed in my same space."
"Are you serious?"
"Dead serious."
"Well if that's what you want-"
"I want you. But clearly your too good for me-"
"Is the other-"
"And since you wont give us a chance, I don't want you anywhere near me. Stop intervening in my DAMN life! I want you out of it completely! COMPLETELY!"
"Fine!" He snap at me. "I'll keep my distance."
"Don't follow me, don't save me-"
"Belle... I can't-"
"NO! STAY the hell away from me! If you happen to walk, and you see a group of guys dragging me away, look the other way, if you see a group of kid gang raping me, look away. HEll don't even call my parents or the police, that's getting involve, if you see someone drinking my blood, bulling me, hitting me-"
"Now your being ridiculous."
"No I'm not. Stay away from me." He glared.
"Fine. I'll leave you alone." I nodded, fighting the tears back. He walked towards his car, and took a can out. "I know this is still getting involved but Fuck You!." He put the can next to my car and fill it with gas, then he got in his car, and drove away. I got in mine, and tested. It turned on. I drove back home. I got inside, and kept going straight to my bedroom.
"Honey-"
"I can't... Just give me my space." My mom sobbed. I kept going straight to my bedroom, and locked the door. They could probably open it, but I hope they didn't... I hope they gave me my space...
Writer's Note: I know sad chapter, but Belle is finding the truth about everything slowly. At least you guys know a little bit why Charlie wont get with Belle :)
