Ok, here's chapter 7! Some of you have been wondering when that kiss will happen, well just read this chapter!
CASSIDY'S POINT OF VIEW:
Someone was tugging at me and pulling at me. Groaning, I pulled my covers farther over my head. I heard Thomas curse under his breath and I heard him walk around to the other side of my bed. Oh, can't he just leave me alone? I'm so tired! "Cassidy! Come on! Get up!" He pleaded. All of a sudden, my blankets were ripped off of me and I shrieked. "Hey! Give those back!" I yelled. "Cass, tonight the Banning's are coming! We have to make dinner!!" He exclaimed. "Oh right!" I said, remembering. "Oh and by the way, Master wants to have a word with you." He said before walking out the door.
He does? He wants to talk to me? Am I in trouble for trying to kiss him? Or the laundry? But I finished the laundry!! I quickly slid out of my old nightgown and put on my work dress. Tying my apron around my waist, I ran down the stone steps to the main hallway. I grabbed my ribbon and quickly threw my hair up in a messy bun. I then noticed that Dracula and his Brides were having some sort of discussion. "But Master," Aleera whined, "why can't we come to the dinner?" "Yes, darling, why are we being left out?" Verona asked, kissing his hands and neck. Dracula sighed and glanced between his Brides. "Yes, you're right. I should let you go. I can see it now. Welcome Mr. Banning! I would like you to meet my Brides. Line up girls!" He said sarcastically. He had a point. How was he going to explain to a normal family that he had 3 wives?
DRACULA'S POINT OF VIEW:
Marishka was licking my neck and rubbing my back. "But what will we do, My Lord?" She asked. "Go out. Do something fun." I said. Or lock yourself in your rooms. The three of them hissed in disappointment. "My Brides, do not be upset. I am giving you a new home and this is how I am thanked?" I asked in disbelief. They all moaned in shame. I rolled my eyes, but stopped when I felt another presence. Cassidy. I could feel her. I looked around and there she was. Standing beside a pillar. "My loves, be gone." I demanded. They groaned and flew out the window. I stepped towards Cassidy. "Uh-Thomas said that you wanted to talk with me." She said, her head facing down. "More or less." I replied, looking her over. She looked up at me, her brows furrowed. So close we were yesterday, so close. I wanted to take her here and now, but no. I shook my head and reached my hand up to stroke her cheek. "The family will be here in a few short hours. See to it that the dining room is clean and that their rooms are ready." I said. She simply nodded and quickly walked away. Why did she deny me so?
CASSIDY'S POINT OF VIEW:
I was in the Banning's rooms, fixing the beds, dusting the mantles, setting up soaps in the bathrooms, and shaking the drapes. Thomas stepped in suddenly and grabbed my arm, pulling me out of the room. "They're here!" He cried. "What!" I asked. "They're early!" I exclaimed. "I know." He replied. Tugging me into the main hallway, I stopped. A humungous woman with vibrant red hair and a simple brown dress stood in the hallway. Beside her was a tall, thin man with not much hair left, wearing a simple brown suit. Next to him was a plump little boy with sandy blond hair just above his ears. His cheeks were so big that they practically pinched his eyes shut, making him look evil. What an odd family and that woman. She was huge. I mean, I'm not trying to be rude, but this was just ridiculous. She also seemed to have a slight…lisp? "My dear," she said, "thith plathe ith abtholutely dithgratheful!" Thomas and I pinched our lips shut, trying hard not to laugh. All of a sudden, Dracula appeared to greet them and he snapped a warning glance at me and Thomas and we quickly fled to the kitchen.
DRACULA'S POINT OF VIEW:
Devil, this woman was huge and I just wanted to strangle her. Her lisp was unbearable! I directed them to their assigned seats at the dinner table and took my seat. "Mr. Banning, how soon do you think it is possible for the move into my new palace?" I asked pleasantly. "Well, Count, I believe as soon as we sign those papers, your palace is as good as bought." He replied. "Good." I said, clapping my hands for the food to be served. Cassidy and Thomas came out with trays of food. Thomas came to me with my usual golden goblet of blood and Cassidy served the guests. The woman took one glance at her steak and grimaced. "Pardon me, mith, but I refuthe to eat thith. The edgeth are burned." She said as if it was an outrage. I was not going to blame my Cassidy though. This woman was almost impossible to please. Cassidy glanced at Thomas, stifling a laugh. She then bowed her head to the woman and took the tray away. Thomas followed her into the kitchen.
CASSIDY'S POINT OF VIEW:
"You know, Thomas, I bet she only likes the fat on her steak." I said jokingly. "No, no, Cass, I bet she is quite fond of lard." Thomas said. I laughed and shook my head. I heard a door close. Thomas and I frowned. We peeked around the swinging doors and saw that no one was in the dining room. We walked out of the kitchen and opened the dining room doors. Dracula was leading the family to their rooms. Thomas and I quietly followed behind and watched as the woman checked her room. "Oh, thee's going to cry if thee doethn't have a thocolate under her pillow." I said, mocking her lisp. Thomas laughed as she did check under her pillow. She stuck her nose in the air and sat down on the bed, making it at least sink a foot or two. The little boy entered the room with her. I guess they're sharing a room and Mr. Banning gets his own room. "Hey, Cass, do you think you could finish the dishes for me?" Thomas asked hopefully. I sighed and nodded. "Yeah, get some sleep, I can do it." I replied. He thanked me and placed a kiss on my forehead. I walked back to the kitchen and began to do the dishes so I myself could get some sleep.
About fifteen minutes later, I was on my last dish, when I heard the kitchen door close behind me. I whirled around and saw Dracula. He looked strange. His eyes were looking right through me. I stepped forward cautiously and said, "My Lord…" But I didn't get to finish. Dracula grabbed me and pressed his lips to mine. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me tight against him. I threw my arms around his neck and pulled him closer to me. His kiss deepened and my lips set on fire. He lowered his lips to my neck and I arched my back. "Cassidy," he whispered before returning to my swollen lips.
