Chapter Eleven: Immature
Evelyn
I opened the door to see Felix and Demetri. They had been talking in hushed whispers and looked at me. Felix left leaving me with Demetri. I made my brave move and sat next to him. I knew he was angry with me. Not talking to me and looking at the floor was a big give away.
"How can we be like this?" I finally asked.
"What?" he asked his voice low and dangerous.
"Us...how can we be like this? How can I be falling so quickly for someone I hardly know?" he looked at me and then pulled me to his chest wrapping his arms around me. Was that it? Was that all I had to say to make him happy again?
"Sometimes it happens that fast, it's something you have to accept. I'd like you to accept." He let go of me and I quickly wrapped my own arms around him. He chuckled. "It seems you already have."
"I don't think I have a choice." I said. "Like I said, I'm falling for you quickly." He took my hands.
"Come with me, Evelyn." I looked up at him.
"Where are we going?" I asked.
He didn't answer me and just pulled me up. I followed him as he jumped out the open window and into the street below. I was amazed still at my speed. We ended up in a wood out of town, why had he brought me here?
"I don't understand." I said. He smiled and took my hand, pulling me deeper into the wood. There grazing on grass was an Elk. I watched it as Demetri put his hands on my shoulders.
"Relax think of nothing else but the Elk. Now, let your senses take you." I did has he told me and crouched. Moments later I found my teeth sinking into the animal's neck. I hadn't even realised I'd moved. I finished the blood quickly and moved away only realising what I'd done.
At least I'm not hunting humans. I thought.
"I want another." I found myself saying. Demetri jerked his head towards my right and I saw another Elk. It wasn't long before I tasted its sweet blood. I soon finished and looked down at myself. I was a mess, covered in blood.
"Your precision will get better with practise." I looked up at Demetri, his eyes were black. He hadn't fed yet. A plan crossed my mind.
"Why don't you hunt animals instead of humans?" I asked.
"I prefer Human blood."
"Have you ever tried animal blood?" I asked. I knew soon it was going to infuriate him. He frowned.
"No and I don't intend to." He said.
"But how would you know if you don't like animal blood if you haven't tasted it?"
"I...what are you getting at?"
"I'd like you to try it." I said brightly. He raised an eyebrow at me and then laughed.
"No!" he said dangerously. I ignored him.
"Why not?" I asked stubbornly. He sighed.
"Since I was turned I've been drinking from Humans. It's a little hard to break out of, Evie." I put my hands on my hips.
"How old were you when you were turned?"
"Twenty one." He drawled. I nearly giggled. Scorpius did the same when Rose and I were pissing him off.
"How long have you been twenty one?" I said grabbing his shoulders.
"Over a thousand years." I let go in surprise.
"Blimey!" I said grinning. I past him and walked in the shadows along the street. I soon heard him follow me and grinned. "Are you trying to be a stalker again?" I asked. He laughed and caught me round the waist.
"May I ask what's with all the questions?" he asked.
"I hardly know you Demetri, yet you seem to know everything about me." I said. He frowned again and I giggled.
"You know enough about me."
"I don't know your human life." I said cheekily. He smiled.
"If I could remember it I'd tell you."
"What?" I asked slightly shocked. He furrowed his eyebrows. "I'm going to forget my human life?" I asked furiously. "Why are you only mentioning this now?"
"I didn't think it was important." He said bewildered.
"How, can forgetting your human life not be important?" I cried. "There are so many people that will miss me and I won't even know it!" Once again he raised his eyebrow and laughed. I found my hand was close to smacking him but he caught it moments before it hit his cheek.
"Silly Evie, you won't forget them immediately. I have lived for over a thousand years. Please don't forget that."
"Oh." I said feeling a bit stupid. He chuckled and pulled me down the street with him back towards the hotel.
I looked at myself in the mirror. I was overjoyed about my morphing abilities, though I dared not try and see whether I could do magic. I didn't want the hotel to blow up. It was what I was expecting anyway.
"I like your blonde hair." I looked at the doorway to see Demetri leant against it. "When it's curly, you look a little bit like Carlisle. It's surprising considering he's generations older than you." He said.
"I agree. Now I look even more like him." I said grinning slightly. I changed my hair colour blonde and my eye colour to the golden colour I was used to. "Ta dah!" I said turning to Demetri. He shook his head smiling.
"You are very different, Evie."
"I think you'll find that's a good thing." I said. "If I was normal I wouldn't be me." I sat down on the bed and he appeared beside me. "When do we leave?" I asked.
"In eight hours."
"I'm worried Demetri." I said, almost whispered. "I'm afraid I might hurt someone. I've not been in the presence of humans for long. I don't want anybody to die."
"Don't worry, Evie." I looked up to see Felix. He grinned at me and I gave him a small smile. "You won't hurt anyone because you'll have to get past me first." He said flexing his muscles. "And then there's Demetri I'm sure he has a few plans up his sleeve to distract you." He winked at me. I reached behind me. My hand found what I wanted and threw the pillow at his head, direct hit. Thank Merlin for my Quidditch skills.
"Shut up asshole!" Demetri growled. I laughed as both boys crouched. I did a backwards roll and ended up sitting on the pillows.
"Oh, please, just please. Don't tell me you're going to fight?" I giggled. They both looked at me with puzzled expressions. "I would probably die from laughing so much. It would be funnier than seeing poor Rose trying to ride a broom." I said shaking my head. They both looked at each other.
"Well bro, I'll leave her to you." Felix said winking at me again before drawing a finger over his throat. Aww crap! I watched him leave and then saw Demetri crouch. A low growl came from his throat. I tucked into a curl as he pounced.
Aww crap, crap, crap, crap, crap!
I was surprised to find myself giggling and kicking my legs trying to get away from the hands tickling me.
"S...Stop!" I giggled.
"No." He growled playfully.
"Please!" I begged.
"Make me." he laughed. I kicked his side accidently and he let go. I grinned and pushed him off the bed. He landed with a thud on the floor and I laughed. He stood and I stuck my tongue out at him. He raised an eyebrow with a smile playing on his lips.
"Very mature Miss Cullen." I frowned.
"That's the same thing Professor McGonagall said to me when I put stink bombs in the Slytherin common room." His eyebrows shot up.
"Why did you do that?" I sighed.
"You wouldn't believe me. Professor McGonagall didn't, that's why I got a detention for the month."
"Try me." He said, genuinely interested.
"The Slytherins cheated in the Quidditch game that afternoon, they'd managed to charm the Quaffle. Anyway, it cost us the cup so I decided to go against Rose's warning's and put stink bombs in the common room. I would have gotten away with it too if it weren't for the blumbering idiots outside the common room. They got themselves caught by Professor Slughorn. I can safely say I was not in detention alone. I brought James and Albus down with me for getting us caught."
"So...another team cheated in a game, you wanted revenge, you got caught and you were told you were immature. That sounds pretty reasonable to me."
"Yes, but we all know if I went missing you'd wreck havoc among the world." I said smirking. He chuckled.
"I can't deny that's true." My smirk grew wider and I leaned closer to him.
"And he calls me immature." I whispered in his ear. The door opened and we both looked at Felix.
"Hey, lovebirds, the plane leaves in an hour."
Oooh. Review please. :)
