Chapter eleven:
Once we got to gymnastics Mr. Theresa told me to go change. I had to change into a bathing suit type thing. It was a red full body swim suit with white gems sewn into it diagonally.
When I came out Mr. Theresa told us to sit on the bleachers so I took a seat on the first row next to Jake and Sam. I was trying not to laugh. Jake was wearing pretty much the same thing that I was and it was so hilarious.
"Who here has had any experience in gymnastics?" Mr. Theresa asked sternly.
I raised my hand and looked around there was one other girl who had her hand raised.
"Pitiful," He sighed to himself. "You there, what's your name?" He asked pointing to the other girl.
She stood up. She had short blonde hair and green eyes. "My name is Melody Adorno." She had a high pitched girly voice that somehow annoyed me.
"How long have you done gymnastics?" He asked.
"I've done it for two years, and then I joined cheerleading." She asked nervous.
"What do you specialize in?" He asked not moving a muscle.
"The vault." She answered shakily.
"Good and you?" He said turning his attention to me.
I looked up at him. He has brown hair like in the military and brown eyes. He wore a sweat outfit that was black and white. I stood up. "My name's Stephanie Ayame and I have done gymnastics for six years." I explained.
His expression softened from stern and hard to a more appropriate expression.
"What do you specialize in?" He asked putting his hands on his hips, his clip board in his right hand.
"I am better at the balance beam and the uneven bars." I answered.
"Good, now both of you! With Melody starting I would like to see what you know." Mr. Theresa said.
We did our stuff and I did a balance beam routine to the song 'My leftovers' by the Porcelain and the Tramps which everyone loved. Once the class was over I walked to my dorm and changed into a long sleeve blue and white shirt where the sleeves were blue and white stripes like the knee socks I wore. I had short black shorts with a black belt.
I walked to Dr. Integra's room annoyed. I didn't want to go but Sam made me go saying it was for my own good and it would help if I cooperated and did what I was told. But I challenged her and needless to say she locked me out of the room until I got it fixed up. So now I'm annoyingly knocking on Dr. Integra's door waiting for him to open and drag me into a world of anger. My thoughts were interrupted by Dr. Integra opening the door leaning on the doorway smirking at me.
"What!?" I asked annoyed.
I saw the laughter in his eyes and I glared at him. "Why can't you just obey me like Sam did? She followed my orders and locked you out until you came to me. How nice, now I know your weakness, you can't say no to Sam." He said and I blushed anger bubbling beneath my skin.
"Shut up and just get it over and done with!" I said closing my eyes as I walked in walking past Dr. Integra. I sat on the bed that lay against the far wall. "So what are you going to do? I asked playing with the black ribbon I still had on. I thought it looked cute on me so I kept it on.
"I'm going to give you a shot." He said walking in and slamming the door behind him which made me jump a little disturbed at the thoughts that ran through my mind.
"How big is the needle?" I asked curiously trying desperately to keep my anger and annoyance level down.
"It's a regular needle, like the one you get for your flu shot." He said from the other room. I heard clanging like needles and surgery instruments hitting a metal table. Then he came out with said needle in hand.
My eyes motioned to the needle and I looked at the dark red liquid inside. It was almost full and worry found it's way to my expression. "What's in there?" I asked a little nervous.
"Don't worry, it's not going to harm you, and it doesn't have any side effects." He said as he walked over to me and I pulled up my sleeve but not long after Dr. Integra's hand was on mine making me stop and look up at him. "This shot isn't going to be injected in your arm." He said and an eyebrow rose.
"Then where is it going to be injected?" I asked feeling heat of embarrassment and anger climbing to my face.
"I'm going to inject the needle in your neck." He said looking down at me as I smirked. "What?" He asked after a long pause.
"It's kind of ironic that you're a vampire and that needle with an unknown substance in it is going to be injected into my neck, quite the opposite of a vampire huh?" I asked.
He smirked a little. "Just because I'm a vampire doesn't mean you can tease me about it. You know I didn't want to be turned into this when I was turned." He said talking to cover up the small needle piercing my neck. I cringed a little at the sudden unexpected pain and his eyes locked with mine. "Did I hurt you?" He asked being patient with me.
"No, umn can I ask you a question?" I asked
"Sure, I am your teacher after all." He said blinking and I noticed that his eyes were starting to turn a reddish color.
"How old were you when you were turned, I mean, you don't look old at all!" I said catching myself.
"I was nineteen." He said.
"And no one noticed that you didn't age?" I asked.
"Some did and at that point in my life they were the best candidates for my feeding." He said answering my questions completely.
"So, umn…"I said blushing not wanting to ask the question in case it opened closed memories.
"How was I turned? I was actually sleeping with this woman. Her name was Zoey Montgomery. My brother and I fought over her many times until she chose me to live as her husband. I never really was in love with her per say her for it. But she told me that I was fool and I would never make an acceptable husband. She killed my parents and turned my brother like she had done to me. My brother and I killed her and we moved on with our long lives." He said his eyes showing sadness.
"I'm so sorry; having to kill the one you loved and trusted. That must have been hard on you and your brother." I said.
"It's no big deal, it's been centuries and I have gotten over it." He said.
There was a long awkward silence and then I spoke. "It's kind of ironic huh?" I asked.
"What do you mean?" He asked in his same tone.
"You're teaching mythology and yet you're a vampire. Imagine the kids faces if they ever found out?" I said smirking
He half laughed. "Hmph, that is quite ironic, but that isn't why I chose to be the teacher for mythology. I wanted to do it just to show my students that these creatures are as real as you and me." He said.
"That's pretty good. I mean, being a vampire and wanting to tell people of your existence. It's unheard of from what I've read and heard." I said.
"Vampires do have rules but it is your chose to reveal your identity or hide it for the rest of your life. I chose to tell my students but in a way that they'll have to figure it out themselves." He said.
"So why did you chose to reveal yourself to me so easily?" I asked wondering.
There was an awkward silence of staring. "I wanted to know how you would handle it and how the students would take it if I ever chose to tell them." He said as his eyes narrowed a bit.
There yet again was another awkward silence. "Is it almost done?" I asked feeling heat rush to my face.
"No, actually your body is rejecting the change." He said.
"WHAT!?" I asked jerking away from him ripping the needle out and tripping Dr. Integra so he fell on top of me.
I blushed madly as I looked at the situation. Fortunately Dr. Integra had caught himself as I on the other hand fell back onto the bed. Dr. Integra stood up and helped me up.
"What are you talking about? What do you mean by 'change'?" I asked getting very angry.
"I put my blood and mixed it with yours, so that you aren't a vampire but you have some vampire effects, like you can't die unless you are burned to death." He said shaking his head in his hand.
"Sorry, I thought you meant…" I said but stopped.
"It's alright, I have to take out the blood though, otherwise you die. Just because you have vampire blood you are not immortal and you have human blood in you as well…" He said looking me in the eyes.
"I get it; it's alright, just hurry it up and get it over and done with." I said moving my hair out of the way to show my neck. Dr. Integra stared at it a bit shocked.
"There are other ways to extract the blood other than feeding off of you." He said biting his lip. I knew he wanted human blood and to the looks of it he hadn't had much in a long time.
"Yeah, but this is the quickest and I would like to get to my practice." I said grabbing one end of the ribbon and pulled it so it untied and I took it off of my neck. I was doing him a favor, and I didn't want to hear it from him later.
"You're sure you want me to do this?" He asked.
I swallowed. "Just do it." I said closing my eyes.
"I don't expect you to get used to this and it will hurt at the beginning." He said and after waiting, bracing myself for pain I felt his body and then his lips on my neck unexpectedly and I tried not to shiver. I bit my lip and then I felt his teeth grow and sink into my neck slowly. I tightened my grip on the bed sheets and I drew blood on my lip which I didn't bother to lick away. I opened my eyes and saw the room and Dr. Integra's broad shoulders and I cringed a bit as Dr. Integra tightened his grip on my arms. It felt warm after a while and I sighed as all emotions were drowned out by pure warmth and calmness. My grip slowly loosened and my breath started getting heavy and my eyes snapped shut. I knew then why most people called the vampire myth sensual. And just before it became unbearable he withdrew his mouth and I felt his gaze on me. "Did I hurt you any?" He asked after a pause of only the sound of my frantic pulse and my pants. I opened my eyes slowly trying to recover. I shook my head no and I looked at his face. He put his hand on my neck opposite his bite mark that was slowly healing over. "Your skin is so smooth and warm. So foreign." He said then he carefully maneuvered his head so his lips were but a centimeter away from mine.
I closed my eyes and my heart rate picked up. I wanted to kiss his so badly but I knew that doing that would be like surrendering to my enemy.
I felt his cold breath on my lips and I tightened my grip on the white sheets.
"That makes me wonder." I said and I could feel his gaze on me and I opened my eyes a little.
"What?" He asked standing up slowly.
"Have you even felt a girls' body after you were turned?" I asked blushing even more.
"No." He said emotionless. I made up my mind at that second and I stood up and hugged him.
"A girl's body is so different from a guy because a guy's body is ridged and a girl is smooth and warm like you said. I mean I'm not experience with men but, I have hugged guys enough to know the difference." I said closing my eyes as heat gathered in my cheeks. I felt his hands on the small of my back and I gasped a little at his cold touch.
"You're trembling." He stated this simply. I stood there awkwardly then Dr. Integra did something I thought he never would. "Steph," He said and I was thrown to the floor. My eyes widened and I blinked. When I opened my eyes again Dr. Integra was over me holding my wrists down over my head.
"Ah! Get off! What are you doing!?" I semi yelled squirming under his body trying to get my wrists free. I was kicking and arching until Dr. Integra caught my hips on his. I relaxed at that point as I turned my beat red face to the side panting. "What. Do you. Think. You're doing?" I said through pants.
"What's wrong? I thought you wanted me to touch you?" He asked making it sound worse than what it really was.
"I didn't mean pin me to the ground by my wrists!" I yelled as I tried to get him off making me arch then I came back down when I realized that I would never be able to break his grip.
He smirked. "Now, how should I use this to my advantage?" He asked and I blushed thinking I knew what he meant. I looked him in the eye and I realized that his eyes were red but my thoughts faded away as he crouched down even lower than he already was on his elbows. "You know, I never told you that I ever loved you. But now I have you so helpless and I don't have to tell you, I can show you." He said as he started kissing my neck. I closed my eyes and bit my lip trying not to moan.
"D-Dr. Integra." I sighed. "S-stop! Stop it!" I pleaded as he went lower to my color bone and I lost it and moaned. I felt him smirk and I blushed even more. This was so wrong on so many levels but I was afraid to say something. So afraid of what people might think if they saw me like this under the care of a doctor/teacher/vampire. I've never been so scared in my life then when he pressed his presence against me knowing exactly what he was going to do while I had no clue. I tightened my hands into fists and they got tighter and tighter as he got lower and lower on my neck down to my chest and lingered on my collar bone then worked his way back up to my neck.
