After I spent the weekend with Anthony, he stayed in my mind all night. When morning came, I screamed with joy in my face. After a month of waiting, my dad had finally given me the car I wanted. It wasn't something grand or anything like that, it was just a red Volvo. It was an old model, 97 or 98, I wasn't sure and I didn't care cause I finally got my car. Matt, went to school with his friends, and I was able to call Eric on time so he wouldn't pick me up for school today. For some reason I was extremely happy.
Once I got to school, I showed my cars to my friends and I was rejoice with their happiness. After showing my car, I went straight to my first class and then to science. In science, Bella Swan, I mean Cullen, sat right next to me. Today Mr. Swan our science teacher was absence so we had a sub and a free period to do what ever we wanted. Eric found some excuse to leave the class and I stayed cause I new I needed to talk to Bella one on one. "Hello, Mrs. Cullen" I could tell she new I was nervous. I mean, I always new her as Anthony sister, but now I know she is his mother, that got to change things.
"Nicole, please call me Bella." Apparently I was making her a little nervous too.
"Ok Bella. Look this is kind of new for me, I mean I didn't know vampire were real and now one of my best friend is"
"A Dhampir" she finish my sentences.
"Yes that. It not a term I am aware off, but its something that my brother knows better than I do. I guess that why I am so ok with all this."
"Well I should thank your brother than"
"Bella, do you mind if I ask you something."
"Sure go ahead."
"I was wondering what do you drink" She gave a look that stated, isn't obvious, so I had to clarify what I meant. "look I know you drink blood, but I don't see a unusual amount of murders and missing people on the news"
"So Anthony never told you that we are vegetarian"
I look at her with shock i my face "What, you eat fruit"
She started to laugh, but she could see from my expression that I was serous. "No. We only drink blood from animals."
"So you only drink blood from animals. Does that mean that your not dangerous"
"We are plenty dangerous, but not for you. In actuality, you are more dangerous to us than we are to you."
"Don't worry, I have no desire to tell anyone your secret. As long as you tell your daughter, to keep my secret to herself." She laugh and told me no problem. After our conversation, I went to my other classes and hang with my friends. While I was the only human who was aware of the fact that Anthony and his family were immortal, me and Eric acted as if nothing change between us and them.
That however all change on Thursday of that week. It all started like any usual day, I went to school in my new car, went to tennis and had science with Bella and Eric. After that Eric and I went to English together, where Anthony was waiting for us. Once in class, I took my seat next to Anthony and Eric sat in front of us. "Hey guys, do you know that this Saturday is the yearly boom fire at the beach. I usually don't go, but hopefully this year I could go with my friends." Eric look as us with so much need in his eyes, so Anthony and I both said yes at the same time.
The teacher bought the class to order and told everybody to find a partner. I wanted to choose Anthony, but since most people didn't like working with Eric, I choose him as my partner. We had to pretend to be lovers, and recreate the scene from Hamlet, and make it our own. While working with Eric, I notice that Anthony was working with girl name Ivy.
Normally I didn't much think about Ivy, but for some reason I was mad that she was his partner. For some reason I wanted to pull her by her hair and beat her senseless. I new Anthony would not pay attention to her flirtation behavior, but it still bother me. And than it hit me, I was jealous.
I always like Anthony, as much more than a friend, but after finding out his secret, I kept myself as arm left, well not anymore. I want Anthony and no one going to stop me. After English class we went to the rest of our classes we had together and than to lunch.
When lunch was over I took Anthony to the side and ask if I could talk to him, one on one later. He said yes and I follow Eric to the next class. Afterward, I met Anthony at the parking lot in front of my car and I was getting ready for what I wanted to tell him. I was getting ready to tell him what was on my mind but I got tongue tide.
"Ok, Nicole could you tell what's going please, I need to go"
"Where are you going"
"I'm going hunting tomorrow, I haven't had blood in a while, so I need to replenish"
Well I better say this than "Listen Anthony, I like you and I know you like me. So on Saturday, you and I are going on a date, I will pick you up on Saturday, and you can't say no."
"Do I get a chance to say no"
"Would you have say no"
"No, not really. However, I was hoping that I would be the one to ask you on a date. Plus didn't we agree to go to the fire boom on Saturday"
"Yes, but that's at night, our date will be in the morning to the afternoon. So we will have plenty of time. SO that is a yes right"
"Yes, it's a yes. I will see you in front off my house on Saturday at ten a:.m.
Yes you will, see you later"
"Later Nicole" He hug me and I went home.
Once I got home, I called Eric, forgetting that he had to work today. I didn't get him, but I did leave him a message "Eric, I finally did it, I ask Anthony on a date and he said yes. We are going out this Saturday. I will tell you about all the detail later.
After the call, I started my homework and at dinner with my family. Once that was done I went to bed early and fell a sleep. That night Eric never called me but he did text me :SORRY I miss you call, was extremely busy. Tell me tomorrow doing class. I want all the detail and leave nothing out: I slept and waited for Friday to come
