Chapter 3
"He didn't show up tonight Master." I said yawning. We stood on top of the school's bell tower, looking down at the shadows for any movement.
"No, he did not." Master grumbled. I looked up at Master as he stood beside me. He was looking at the horizon. I yawned again as I turned to look, seeing that sunrise is just a few minutes away. "Let's go back and sleep." Master said, placing his arm over my shoulder before taking a step forward – pushing me forward – and we fell.
I kept my mouth shut to keep the scream in throughout the duration of the fall, keeping my eyes tightly shut until I felt my feet touch the ground. I opened my eyes and took a deep, calming, breath before taking a step forward but my legs felt wobbly. I didn't realize that Master still had his arm around my shoulder until I felt him pull me closer against his body. I looked up at him as we started walking, slowly, before looking ahead. The sun is now rising, and I felt my eyes getting heavier as we kept walking, leaning against Master as my eyes are starting to shut to sleep.
"We're almost there." Master mumbled.
I nodded my head and forced my eyes to open again to keep walking as we were a few feet away from the Dorms entrance. My eyes were drooping close again as we walked up the stairs. I tried to keep my eyes open but they wouldn't anymore, my eyes staying closed but my mind is awake enough for me to keep my feet moving, trusting Master to guide me to our room. But then I felt Master stop momentarily before feeling my legs being lifted up. I jerk and opened my eyes, to see that Master is carrying me up the stairs before feeling my eyes close again.
"We're here." Master mumbled to me. I tried to force my eyes open again, barely seeing the door through my blurred vision as I reached for the key in my pocket to open the door.
But instead of Master stopping in front of the door, he kept walking until we stepped through it. I would have been amazed that I went through a solid object with Master but, the sun is raising and is pulling me to sleep. Master laid me on my bed then I felt him cover me with the blanket. I let out a sigh as I buried my face into my pillow. For a brief moment, as I was falling asleep, I think I felt Master place his hand on my head… but I could be imagining it.
I growled as I pressed the pillow against my ear, the annoying alarm ringing and ringing. I slowly lifted the pillow and opened an eye to see the Police Girl blindly reaching for the phone on her night stand, her head turned away from the small sunlight that's spilling in from the gap in the curtain that I had closed when we returned this morning.
"Hello?" The sound of her groggy voice caught my attention before she suddenly sat up in bed. "Y-yes sir. I'm up." I watched her as she talked to Integra. She yawned, her fangs lengthen a bit. "No, Sir, he didn't show up last night." Seras said, as her eyes closed again. "Master has been well behaved, sir." She laid back in bed and stretched, her bones popping. "Sir, I don't think I'll be able to do that." She groaned. "Yes sir, I'll try." Then she sat up again. "Class! R-right sir! Have a good day Sir Integra." She hung up the phone as she sighed, rubbing her eyes as she yawned again, her fangs baring themselves.
"Afternoon Seras." I mumbled out to her, her head shot up to me, her eyes looking for my face before finding my eyes partially hiding under the pillow.
"Afternoon Master." She said, scratching the back of her head that turned into a stretch. "We have to get ready for class, Master. Lunch time is almost over." I growled as I pulled the pillow back over my face. "I'd rather go back to sleep too Master. But," She yawned again. "at least Sir Integra managed to only give us classes in the afternoon. So, technically, we'll be up for about three hours then we can come back and get more sleep." I heard the floor creak as I can hear her feet shuffling on the wood floor. "Come on Master, we can't be late."
I growled again before finally sitting up in bed.
"Alright class, we have two new students today." The professor said as me and Master stood in front of our first class – a History class. "This is Miss Seras Victoria-Hellsing and her brother, A-Al-u-card? Alucard? I'm sorry, did I say that right?" He looked to either of us. I nodded my head. "Alucard Hellsing." He finished with a wrinkling smile – he's probably in his sixties.
I smiled at the class. "Hi, it's so nice to meet you." I said, as whispers spread throughout the class… mostly from the boys, some smiling at me – smiles I very well know what they mean especially as they looked at my chest.
Then Master growled. Growled loud enough that the entire class had instantly gone quiet. I bumped my elbow against his arm. Master is so busy staring down at every male in this room that I had to bump my elbow against his arm again, harder. He finally looked at me before looking back the class.
"I'll only say this once," Master said, glaring at the boys. "keep away from my Seras."
I stared at Master shocked, especially has he grabbed my hand – surprisingly his grip is gentle – and pulled me pass the rows of tables to the back by the windows and sat down in the chair, pulling me down next to him in the empty seat – his arm resting on the back of my seat as I can feel his hand on my shoulder. The entire class was completely silent until the professor cleared his throat, mumbling something before telling us open a book and started the lesson.
Throughout the class, everyone was looking back at us every once in a while. I was trying to ignore that Master was causally playing with the ends of my hair, but it was really hard! But then a girl caught my attention, just two tables down from us on the right, she wasn't staring at me but at Master and the way she's staring at him… I felt my eyes narrowed her as my lips pulled back over my teeth as I leaned more forward in chair. Blocking her view of Alucard and as her eyes meet mine, she quickly looked away and back to the board.
"Jealous?" Master whispered in my ear, cause me to jump in my seat. I turned my head to look at Master to see him grinning at me.
I just shook my head. "You're seeing things Master." I whispered, before looking back at the board. "Her staring was inappropriate, and it was bothering me."
Master chuckled then I felt his breath against my ear. My body tensed as goosebumps spread throughout my body at the heat of his breath on my neck and ear. "No, need to lie or be jealous, my little Seras."
