Chapter 4
Jade and Tori spent their evening laughing and watching movies and eating pizza. They talked about anything from favorite color to first crush. When it came to for Jade to leave, Tori somehow convinced Jade to stay the night. Not only did she convinced her to stay the night, she convinced her to sleep in the same bed with her. Jade was the first one awake in the morning. She looked over to see Tori sleeping peacefully as ever. Careful not to wake her, she caressed the girls cheek with a light kiss to top it off. Tori shifted in her sleep with a contented smile on her face. Jade leaned over in the girls ear. "Soon you'll be mine" with that, Jade quietly snuck out the bed, left a note for the girl and quietly left out her window and zoomed all the way back to her house. When Tori finally woke up the first thing she noticed was a note where Jade was laying. She quickly picked it up.
Didn't want your dad saying anything just in case he came into your room. Had fun last night, can't wait to seen you in school. xoxo - JW
Smile quickly appeared on Jade's face as she quickly got ready for school. Once Tori got to school, she quickly went looking for Jade and saw her near her locker. As she walked toward the girl, Robbie appeared in her way.
"Hey Tori what's up?" He said, with a huge smile on his face.
"Oh nothing I was just going to meet Jade at her locker" she said, trying to walk by the boy, but he continued to get in her way.
"What's up with you and that West girl?" Jade, who was listening to the conversation turned her head slightly at the mention of her name by him.
"None of your business Rob"
"Oh well, I was wondering if you'd like to go out with me tonight?" Jade gripped her locker tightly at this.
"Um no, I have plans tonight. Maybe some other time"
"With who?"
"Jade"
"Oh come on Tori"
"Look I already promised for tonight so I'll have to see if I'm free ok?"
"Ok" with that, she walked by the boy and straight to Jade who turned to her with an amused smirk on her face.
"So what are we doing tonight?"
"Oh. You heard all that?"
"Yeah, I don't mind. I was actually gonna ask if you were free tonight"
"Looks like we got a date tonight" that made Jade smile. "I like the sound of that" with that they left to class, laughing. During class the teacher called Jade up to her desk.
"Um Ms. West, who is this Jakai West you have as your guardian contact?" She asked without even looking at the girl.
"It's pronounced Jacai. Its like saying Jace but with the "I" sound at the end. He's my brother"
"I'm sorry but unless he's over 18, there has to be a parental contact"
Jade looked into the woman's eyes, compelling her.
"He's the only family I live with. Please reconsider" she asked in a hypnotizing tone.
"I'll make an exception this time Ms. West" with that Jade went back to her seat and continued her work. After school the two went for a walk in the park. As they stopped to relax in the grass an old woman came up to them.
"I know you" she stated, pointing a finger at Jade.
"I'm sorry do I know you?" Jade asked, raising a confused eyebrow.
"It is you. My god, you haven't aged a day" Jade widen her eyes at the lady's comment. Jade quickly got up.
"I'm sorry but you have the wrong person. I forgot to talk to Jace about something important. I'll see you tonight" with that Jade jogged off. Tori got up and watched her leave before turning her attention to the old woman.
"How do you know Jade?" She asked the woman.
"I don't know her face to face but I did know that she looked just like she did back in the day"
"Back in the day?"
"Yep. The West Siblings of 1924"
"What? That's impossible. Our you sure that they're the ones?"
"Nope she's the original Jadelyn West alright. I never forget a face. If you want you can head to the town hall library and look up the old records" with that said, the old woman left, leaving Tori stunned and confused. She decided to drive to the hall library and go through the documents. As she did this, she found an signature paper from the founding councils party of LA. As she went down the line she stopped at twonames that nearly made her faint.
Jacai West
Jadelyn West
It can't be! She thought as she went to the computers and decided to look up animal attacks and saw a video involving the West household. She clicked on it.
There was an animal attack on 34 year old Derron West, the man seemed to bled to death from the various bite marks that marred his body.
As she watched the video, she could see two figure in the window and quickly zoomed in on it. As she zoomed she covered her mouth and saw that it was in fact Jade and Jace before they disappeared into the house. She quickly checked the date of the video and quickly paled over.
Date: Augest 23, 1924
How was this possible unless...the girl's eyes widen in shock at the possible revelation of what Jade might be. She left the library and quickly drove to Jade's house and knocked on the door. Zeke opened the door to the girl's surprise.
"Hi um I'm here to see Jade?"
"Oh you must be Tori, hold on a sec. JADE!" He called back into the house.
"What Zeke I'm kinda busy right now!" She heard Jade yell.
"Someone's here to see you!" Soon Jade appeared, closing the door behind her. "Tori hey, you're early" she said with a smile. Tori just walked away from the girl and into the woods behind the house. Jade followed behind the girl, sensing something was wrong.
"Tori is everything alright?" She tried to touch the girls's shoulder but she flinched away. "Did I do something wrong?"
"How old are you Jade?" She asked all of a sudden. Jade seemed taken aback by the question.
"I'm sixteen just like you"
"For how long? For how long Jade?" She asked, finally turning to face the girl. Jade sighed, knowing that Tori found out the real truth.
"I was born in 1870. I've been sixteen since 1886" Tori seemed to pale at the revelation. "You...you're a-" she began.
"Yes. I'm a vampire"
