Deserah let herself in after saying goodbye to Jill. She knew she was
being silly, Her, the Death Ruin, running away from a vampire. She shook
her head and looked at her watch. '11:29, Sam should be in bed and Mom and
Dad should be watching TV' she thought. She creeped up the stairs and
knocked three times on her adopted parents door. It was there way of
knowing that Deserah came in safe and sound. She was about to open her
door when her adopted Dad came out.
"Deserah?" he said.
"Yeah dad?" Deserah said as she scanned her Dad's face for any hint on what was bothering him.
He sighed then said, "Deserah, hunny, we have to move again, I got a case in Florida."
Deserah smiled at him, "It's ok Dad you don't have to worry about me freaking out, I'm not that kind of teen. Just how long till we can come back?"
Dave Kenden ran a hand through his thick brown hair, "Well that's the thing I'm not so sure how long we'll be there."
"Will it be enough time for me to acquire a killer tan?" Deserah said jokingly trying to take some of the strain off her father. In the mean time she was also thinking how many vampires could she kill there before coming back home.
Dave cracked a small smile then said, "I think so. are you really not disappointed?"
"No Dad I'm not" Deserah said as she gave him a little hug just to back up her statement.
"That's great" he said obviously relieved, "Then you won't mind packing all your cloths tonight?"
"Whoa nobody said anything about packing tonight" Deserah said in a mock voice.
Dave's body stiffened then relaxed again as Deserah said quickly, "Just kidding Dad I'll get started. Did you already pack Sam's stuff?"
"Yes we did" Dave said with a slight smile
"How did he take it?" Deserah asked.
"Not so well" Dave said, "I hate doing it to the little tike but.."
"He'll get use to it you just have to give him more time.." Deserah said to comfort him. She then turned and headed into her room to get all packed up.
"Deserah?" he said.
"Yeah dad?" Deserah said as she scanned her Dad's face for any hint on what was bothering him.
He sighed then said, "Deserah, hunny, we have to move again, I got a case in Florida."
