Hi there! I am back for yet another chapter! I am sorry on the wait but this should tide people over a bit more before we get to the more fighty...fluffy stuff. Before we start I would love to thank everyone who has reviewed this story or Alert+. You guys make me want to keep writing this story, Thank you.
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN VAMPIRE KISSES sadly...
NOW ON WITH THE SHOW! XD
I shut the door to my room, muttering and cussing as I removed each little piece for glass from my arms. After bandaging them thoroughly I slipped into my Edward scissorhands nightshirt and crawled on to my bed, watching out the window. How had this all happened?
'Where are you?'
Then again, thinking about all of this now it makes sense. I never saw Jagger or Alex during the day, or knew where they were; I never saw them eat or drink really. Maybe once or twice, but still.
I watched the autumn breeze as it tousled the leaves of the trees while everything was trying to sink in. Jagger is a vampire. I was dating a vampire. Dread crept into my mind as I repeated that. What would happen now that I knew? Was Jagger just acting around me, or do I know the real him?
'Are you okay?'
All these 'if's and 'and's came flooding into my mind as I drew my knees to my chest. A small noise sounded by my window, a small rapping. ((a/n: rapping upon my chamber door XD sorry I had to)) I looked to the side to be met with two small little eyes looking into my room. "oh….it's you" I sighed and smiled at my little furry friend. For a minute there I thought it would be Jagger…. Almost hoped.
"what are you doing here little guy? You should be off…enjoying the night…" I had tried to fake a smile but failed miserably at it. I shouldn't have an from the building, I shouldn't have ran from him. Now what can I do? Tears started falling and I dropped my head into my knees, covering my face. "I'm sorry…."
~~~ ^O^~~~
The night of Halloween arrived and I found myself curled up on the couch drinking kool-aid and watching Dracula. My parents had taken the little monster out trick-or-treating and I was stuck here alone. Jagger had texted me several time asking if I was okay and why I am not replying, but only every so often. I didn't know what to say back. My mind was still in a whirl wind from yesterday. I didn't know if I should stay away and have everything be the same way it was my entire life or let him in to change it. Every moment Made my chest hurt, like just breathing in this large empty house was something unthinkable. I missed him, I missed him so much.
'Are we still on for the crypt? ~Rave'
My head and the couch collided with a loud thump. that's right, we were all going to be together. I had completely forgotten, I took a deep breath and shut off the TV. I sent back my okay and rolled off the couch. Somehow I had to make the best of this.
'k, on the way. ~Rave'
With lightening speed I made it to my room to find my costume from last year only to fail a bit more than I thought. All I could find was my fangs and a cotton candy pink skull dress. I threw the dress out quickly and contemplated the fangs before slowly slipping them in, smiling at myself in the mirror to make sure they looked good.
I dug through my closet to find something to slip on, eventually picking black and white striped tights and corset top paired with a black skirt and my boots.
I fixed my hair and my blood red lipstick just in time for the doorbell to ring. Raven and Alexander were waiting outside for me with smiles planted on their faces. Raven had donned a short 'vampiress' dress almost looking like Elvira. Alexander looked almost like normal but with a cape. I smiled brightly at them and pulled the door closed behind me, ready for a fun night.
"come on!" Raven squealed as she yanked Alex and I into the car.
With haste we raced to the crypt ready to see the haunted house that had been set up. Alexander stepped out to open the door for Raven and I came out behind her. As we approached I caught Raven peeking over her shoulder at me before walking in through the doors. I followed after into the dark rooms behind them, laughing and happily jumping at all the tricks placed inside. Alexander and I burst out laughing when Raven waved over the guy from chainsaw massacre and gave him a big hug. A few rooms down we ran into a certain blonde haired jerk wielding a cape and blood. "Let me take a nibble," Trevor teased leaning in towards us. We all frowned at him; Raven and I replying with an "In your dreams" and Alexander with a "In your dreams" while shielding Raven with his arm. The rest of the house went by rather quickly, leading into the club's dance floor and bar where the teens of Dullsville were dressed as partying creatures of the night.
I sat down at the bar and smiled knowing that tonight I was part of the town and not cast aside, at least for one night.
"What can I get you?" Romeo asked me, smiling as he cleaned one of the glasses.
"whatever you recommend me," I replied while keeping a smile on my face. He nodded, returning with a tall glass, looking like a dark strawberry smoothie.
"On the house," Romeo said with a wink before making his way to another customer. I only smiled and waved it off knowing he was only joking. I turned towards the crowds of dancing people, watching their movement and their smiling faces as they danced with their friends. After twirling the pick in my drink I set it aside and took a small sip from it. It was sickening sweet and I decided it better to sip at it.
"Having fun?" Raven asked as she sat down on the stool beside me. I nodded and sat my drink back down on the counter, "Yeah. What about you and Alexander, having fun?" Raven smiled and told me all about how Matt and Alex were bonding over guy stuff. Raven asked Romeo for a drink and brought her the house specialty, she paused and looked back and forth between my drink and me.
"What drink is that?" She asked, her voice wavering ever so slightly. I looked down at my drink and shrugged, "I dunno, Romeo gave this to me but it is rather sweet. Like a taste?" I offered but Raven quickly refusing like it was poison. I sat there confused before a thought popped into my head, "do you believe in vampires?"
"what? Do you think they exist?" Raven asked trying to turn my question back on me. I could barely think of a good answer, "possibly...yeah."I gave her a grin and she have me a nervous smile before she started talking again. "Nyx-"
"Hello there," Jagger greeted as he wrapped his arm around my shoulder, "where were you?" His voice sounded as velvety as usual. I looked up into his blue and green eyes and couldn't help but smile. That is before everything came back in one big lump."I'm sorry for not picking up, I was just hung up on something that doesn't really bother me anymore." I stated as I watched his face go almost emotionless before he grinned. Jagger wrapped both arms around me and kissed my cheek, causing a pink to dust my face. After pushing my dink away he leaned down and I could feel his breath on my neck as he spoke "meet me in the back in five?"
TA DA! End of chapter! You probably think i am a jerk for ending it there but my brain will not work and I need that for writing and so I had to stop. I a way I suppose it works...
Hope you liked it, please review! I'll give you a smoothie -holding cup- on second thought... I really don't know what Romeo made this thing with...
hope you liked it!
SEE YOU NEXT CHAPTER! ;)
