Chapter 35

"So is she a slayer?" Ingrid asked us as we walked in. Vlad shrugged his shoulders. "You were meant to find out!"

"Well erm... I" Vlad mumbled. If he would have said 'she tried to kiss me and I kissed back', he would have been hung by his ears in the sun. I interrupted.

"She was being awkward so we told her to leave" I said convincingly. Vlad gave me a thank you look. I nodded back.

"Well then is she coming back tomorrow?" Ingrid asked.

"I don't know" Vlad said.

"Why not?"

"Well why do you want her here?"

"Because I want a catch up with the little mite! Is that such a problem!"

"No"

"Well then invite her round!"

"NO!"

"Vlad. It's fine, invite her round" I said to him.

"But Bonnie you said you didn't want me too talk to her!" everyone switched to Vlad.

"Why isn't he allowed to talk to her?" Ingrid asked me. I hung my head. "Bonnie. Why isn't he allowed?"

"Doesn't matter" I mumbled.

"Bonnie why!"

"I said it doesn't matter!"

"Tell me!"

"Because she kissed me!" Vlad blurted out. Everyone switched back to him with mouths wide open.

"What!" the count shouted.

"She kissed me"

"HOW DARE SHE!"

"Calm down dad!"

"Why didn't you bite her as soon as she tried?"

"Because"

"Because what Vladimir!"

"Because I kissed her back!"

"Why would you do that Vladimir!"

"I don't know!"

"Right. That's it!"

"What?"

"I'm calling the council!"

"Why?"

"Because she has to be punished for what she's done!"

"Why does she. She's only human!"

"And you as well. How do you think poor Bonnie over there feels?"

"We made up after!"

"She knew?"

"She saw us!"

"That's even worse"

"Calm down dad!"

"I can't calm down!" he stood up and walked towards Vlad. "You will pay for what you did!" and that was it.

"SHUT UP!" I shouted.

"She had no right!"

"YOU HEARD Vlad. HE SAID WE MADE UP AND WE DID!"

"But..."

"No buts. Just shut up"

"I'm calling the council!" he picked up the phone.

"Dial one number into that phone and I will drive a stake right through you're chest until you're no more then a piece of ash on my shoes!" he placed the phone back on the table and sat down. Vlad wrapped his arm around me

"You got told!" Wolfy said. I sniggered. Everyone let out a small laugh except the count.

"Ha, ha very funny!" the count snapped.

"Now were all feeling toasty warm how about we eat?" Ingrid asked. The count wouldn't take his eyes away from me. I just ignored it and ate.
