I DON'T OWN LOST BOYS OR ANY OF ITS ORIGINAL CHARACTERS, ONLY MY OCS AND THE SITUATIONS I PUT THEM IN. WARNING: There will be cussing, lemons, and violence. (Also someone said I should put please don't steal. Didn't think I needed to, but ok. Please don't steal my stories.)
So here we are again. I want this beginning and story to be different and since I haven't seen a start like this I think I'm on the right track. Some characters may seem OOC at some points at different times in the story, but I hope I explain that in the story when the time comes. Some things happen pretty fast at first (like certain relationships or legal stuff), but again I try to explain it. Some people may go back and forth at times, but I'll explain it! You get the idea. Spelling and grammar errors, I recheck constantly, so sorry if some slip by. Some character bashing in the beginning and for a little while, but that doesn't mean it will last the whole story. I don't hate certain characters though it may seem like that at times. Big thank you to everyone who reviewed, followed, and/or favorited. You guys rock! Thank you so much to Welisarne (so glad you liked the kiss and I agree, Dwayne is dreamy!), SabinaTeenageB, AshBBramble, Sillygabby, Guest, Amber0522, Lunafangoakencross, Tigeress24 (I think I messaged you. Yes there will be some cat and mouse, but the boys don't know they're dealing with tigers, not scared mice. Still, it'll be interesting, at least I think so), OhBeClever (So glad you like it, and you're on the right track), AnimeLuvr96, and all of you, your reviews mean so much! Also, no Star bashing in this one. I just feel too much for her, though who knows. Maybe I'll bash her in a future story...though don't count too much on it.
Chapter 3: Making Friends.
Ava sat up early in the morning going over some books Danny had been able to get last night at a Mystic bookshop.
She was trying to find something, anything about vampires but so far it had only mentioned them for a paragraph and was basically repeating what they already knew.
She bit her lip, she wanted to know what the boys were up to. She got the expected dangerous vibe off of them, but it seemed off to her.
It was driving her crazy.
"Only been here a fucking day, and they're making me lose my shit" she muttered to herself as she stood to get coffee ready.
She racked a hand through her messy curls. She was in a tank top and short shorts sweats.
She paused momentarily.
"Shit, it has literally been a day. A day in a fucking movie world where we are apparent characters, and did I even bat an eyelash? I must be crazy, maybe I am, and this is all in my head" she thought out loud.
"Well" a voice said behind her almost making her throw the coffee pot at the person till she realized it was Eva. "Talking to oneself isn't exactly sane" her sister yawned, jumping down the mini stairs.
"But we kind of just accepted it too. We're not normal, we shouldn't be surprised that that transcends into how we react over situations."
"You always have such a way with words" Ava joked. "It's just…this is crazy, right? Yet, we're super chill with it. We aren't even freaking out over the prospect of meeting fucking vampires again. Instead, my main concern is finding out why I get this…vibe from them".
"I think it's called lust" Eva said and Ava shook her head.
"No, well yes, there is that. But I mean there is more than that, I can't explain it…yet. But, I mean, can't you feel it?" she asked.
Eva sighed and ran a hand through her own curls.
"Yeah, yeah I can. So, what are we going to do?" she asked.
"Who do we know that can give us knowledge, even the slightest about vampires" Ava asked and Eva's eyes widened.
"You can't mean who I think you mean?" she said, and Ava nodded biting her lip. "Ava, they kill them!"
"I know, and I don't want them to die" she said, hands up. "I mean, I probably should since they're murders, but then again they do that to survive? I don't know it's all shades of gray!" she said punching the wall making the camper shake.
"What I mean is, you know I've always been upset with the end of the movie. There is just something about them that makes you want to…save them, I guess" she said lowly, and Eva nodded.
"So, I'm saying we go into the comic store, before Sam and they'll give us one even if we act like we don't want it. We won't say anything about vampires, maybe-. I don't know, maybe we could even stop Sam from calling them. They're shady as fuck too".
Eva nodded, "Ok, we can go tonight, before sundown. We can look for jobs then too, might as well".
"Good" Ava said as they shared a nervous look. It was broken by a sleepy Daniela stumbling in.
"Hmmm" she mumbled rubbing her eyes. "Is that coffee?"
"Yeah, come on. I'm gonna make breakfast. We'll do it in the house, that way Grandpa can get some since he made us dinner" Ava told them.
"He made us pop-tarts" Eva said but followed her sister none the less.
Danny rushed to get her coffee before running after them. She didn't want to miss out on their cooking, even if she was most likely stuck with dishes.
The girls ate a large breakfast and Ava even made a sandwich for Grandpa's lunch.
"Thanks Sweetie" he yelled from the workroom, or the room of horrors as the twins called it.
"We're going to town Grandpa; do you need anything?" Eva called.
"No, be safe" he yelled back.
"Will do" they said before going to get dressed.
Ava and Eva wore band tees, though Ava's was black and Eva's red. They had on their torn black jeans and boots. Their hair was loose.
Danny had on jeans and a lose AC/DC shirt, hair down.
Simple makeup and faux leather jackets settled the look as they headed to the bikes.
They had thought about dressing up since they were looking for employment but realized that this was the 80s, they were fine.
The boardwalk looked different somehow during the day.
It was still fun, but lacked that level of excitement, or at least they thought so. Right now, it was more families running around or surfers and girls tanning.
They went in and out of many places with no luck, besides some creep who tried to get them to interview to be dancers of the exotic type. He even tried to grab Eva's ass.
Ava gave him a dead arm.
It didn't help that another guy tried to hit on Danny while his bud tried to grope Ava.
Both ended up bruised and alone.
Ava was upset that the bookstore wasn't hiring, though the old woman who owned it did seem to like her and said she'd call her if there was ever an opening and that she was welcomed in, even if she didn't buy anything, whenever she wanted.
Eva was upset that the computer store wasn't hiring. She was almost tempted to try Max's store, but he always creeped her out in the movie. Plus, he wasn't there yet.
Danny was just bored until she noticed music coming from a diner. They walked in and saw it was like a bar and dinner and there was someone on an old piano.
It was a young blonde guy who kept winking and trying to do fancy hand work. He wasn't very good.
"How can I help you" an older gruff man asked. He looked to be in his mid-40s, medium height with a five a clock shadow and salt and pepper hair with tired but kind blue eyes.
"Hi, we were wondering if you were hiring" Ava said.
"Sorry, we don't have any waitress jobs open right now" he said though not unkindly. "Will you pay attention to your job" he yelled at the boy who had tried to lean over to flirt with a girl who did not look interested.
"Sorry" the man said to the girls.
"She plays the piano" Eva blurted out pointing to her sister. "And we all sing, Danny can even play the drums" she said.
"Is that so" he said rubbing his stubble chin.
"Yep, not to be a dick, but I could play better than him" Ava said motioning to the boy making the man give off a laugh.
"Well…he's my friend's son and he hates doing dishes. Had to put him to work somehow" he said before he smiled when she didn't apologize. "But how about you go up, play something and I'll think about it?" he said, and they smiled.
"Sure thing" Danny said as they walked to the small stage.
They liked the look of the place; it seemed a bit ahead of its time but somehow had a homey feel to it.
"If you're here for an autograph it'll have to be after work" the guy told them with a smug smirk. "Unless you're here for something else, in that case you can meet me in the alley in a few minutes" he said to Ava with a sleazy lip purse.
Danny scowled at what he was implying, as Eva tried to stare him to death while Ava simply snorted.
"He told us we could play a song" Ava told the guy who looked her up and down with his dark brown eyes.
He licked his lips and stood up, just a little taller than her. He oozed ego and cockiness.
"Is that so" he asked, and she nodded still waiting for him to move. "And why is that? You want to work with me?" he smiled.
"Actually, I was thinking about taking your job, but sure we can both play the piano…just never together" she said as she sat on the bench, Eva quickly taking the seat next to her. Danny saw a guitar in the corner and began tuning it as she found a stool.
"So, what am I supposed to do" he asked getting annoyed.
"Well, you could go talk to that blonde you were flirting with, but she did not seem interested, like at all. Or you could go read, or help in the kitchen, or go read…preferably a music book" Eva said smiling.
"What the hell does that mean" he demanded.
"Move over Eddie, they're gonna play a song" the older man called.
The younger guy looked at them angrily before stomping off. He went to take a seat next to the girl he had been bugging all day, who groaned and told him to scram.
Ava began playing a few cords before whispering something to the girls. Eva agreed though Danny looked slightly torn before they whispered something else and she shrugged, caving.
Ava started playing first, with Danny playing a few cords on the guitar, though her part came in more later in the song.
Ava began singing first, with Eva coming in second.
"Head underwater, and they tell me to breathe easy for a while.
But breathing gets harder, even I know that.
Made room for me. It's too soon to see if I'm happy in your hands.
I'm unusually hard to hold on to".
Many people actually stopped eating and turned to the stage. She was playing with ease and had a lovely feminine yet almost raspy voice.
"Blank stares at blank pages. No easy way to say this.
You mean well, but you make this hard on me."
She looked out at the now staring crowd and smirked.
"I'm not gonna write you a love song, 'cause you asked for it, 'cause you need one, you see.
I'm not gonna write you a love song 'cause you tell me it's make or breaking this.
If you're on your way.
I'm not gonna write you to stay. If all you have is leavin', I'ma need a better reason to write you a love song today, today, yeah".
Now Eva took over and someone actually sighed making her smile. Her voice, though just as strong as Ava's, held a gentler tone and seemed breathy at points.
"I learned the hard way, that they all say things you want to hear.
My heavy heart sinks deep down under you and your twisted words.
Your help just hurts.
You are not what I thought you were!
Hello to high and dry".
Now Ava came in strongly with soul.
"Convince me to please you. Make me think that I need this too!"
Eva jumped back in.
"I'm trying to let you hear me as I am.
I'm not gonna write you a love song, 'cause you asked for it, 'cause you need one, you see.
I'm not gonna write you a love song 'cause you tell me it's make or breaking this.
If you're on your way.
I'm not gonna write you to stay.
If all you have is leavin', I'ma need a better reason to write you a love song, today".
Now it went back and forth between the two with Danny as background.
"Promise me". Ava beg-singed. "You'll leave the light on, to help me see. With daylight, my guide, gone".
Eva closed her eyes as the words slipped out.
"'Cause I believe there's a way you can love me because I say…".
Now they both sang in synch, though at times one would draw out the word or go higher and lower.
"I'm not gonna write you a love song, 'cause you asked for it, 'cause you need one, you see.
I'm not gonna write you a love song, 'cause you tell me it's make or breaking this.
Is that why you wanted a love song?
'Cause you asked for it, 'cause you need one, you see.
I'm not gonna write you a love song, 'cause you tell me it's make or breaking this.
Or you're on your way, I'm not gonna write you to stay".
Ava took over once more.
"If your heart is nowhere in it, I don't want it for a minute".
Eva continued, finishing her sister's line like they did most of the time.
"Babe, I'll walk the seven seas when I believe that there's a reason to write you a love song, today.
Today."
They finished together. There was a moment of silence, Eddie even looked at them smugly before the whole room was filled with loud applause.
The girls smiled and giggled to each other as the diner exploded. They stood and bowed before skipping off to the owner who was still looking at them with a slightly dropped mouth.
"So, how was that" Eva asked.
"That was amazing, that's the most applause this place has ever gotten" he told them holding out his hand to shake.
"I'm James, can you all start working tonight at 8?" he asked, and they practically screamed yes.
"Um, what about him" Danny asked motioning to a brooding Eddie.
"I've always thought he looked better in a hair net" he said making them laugh.
James said he would have the paperwork and everything ready for them when they came back that night and the girls thanked him again before going back onto the boardwalk.
"Where to now?" Eva asked.
"It'll be dark soon" Danny said. "Is it just me, or does it seem like the days here go by really quick?"
"Yeah, I noticed that too" Ava said. "The nights are really long, though at least it means I won't get sunburned" she said.
"So, we don't have long till the guys and Star get here" Eva said. "We should probably go to the comic store than" she sighed.
"Anyone know where it is?" Danny asked.
"Probably where the two Frogs are staring at us" Ava said pointing at the teens making them duck down and run to the front of their shop.
"How the hell did those two end up killing four vampires?" Eva asked in wonder as Danny shook her head.
"Dumb luck" Ava deadpanned. "Let's go".
The three walked over to the comic store. Ava put her tongue against her teeth and shook her head amused, while Eva tried to hold in a laugh and Danny rolled her eyes.
The two were 'casually' reading comics. They definitely weren't a little out of breath or blushing.
The twins turned to one isle while Danny went to another, just looking. After only seeing superhero comics Ava decided to speak up.
"Hey, do you guys have any monster comics?" she asked, and they looked over at them in surprise.
"Are you sure you can handle it?" Edgar asked crossing his arms and Ava glared before stepping towards him making him jump up.
His brother muttered angrily at him while the others snickered.
"Well, since I've been reading them before you were born, I think I'm good" she told him crossing her arms.
"And why are there only like" Eva said counting something. "Three female superhero comics, rude".
"And why aren't numbers together? I don't understand your filing system" Danny put in.
"Ok, ok" Alan said holding up his hands. "We get it" he said with wide eyes and a 'damn' expression. "Monsters, over there. More women, over there. You don't need to know the system; we are the system".
"We are the system" the twins repeated to each other as they walked to the monster side. "Broken ass system".
"Your friends are a little pale, aren't they" Edgar suddenly said as he walked closer to Danny and all three girls looked at him.
"Are you saying that because I'm not white, I'm not allowed to be friends with white people" she asked incredulously. His eyes widened before he tried to scoff.
"Don't try to-" he started before the twins interrupted him.
"Racist" they said loudly pointing at him.
"No, no, no, no, no!" Alan said shaking his hands and rushing to them. "He didn't mean it like that."
"I meant you two are so pale you're probably vampires" Edgar said.
"Racist" they and now Danny yelled.
"I'll have you know that we are just two immature goth kids, in the bodies of two hot, slightly older goth kids!" Ava said crossing her arms. "We don't like the sun for purely a vain reason".
"How was I supposed to know that" Edgar tried to defend himself.
"Because our whole wardrobe points to that" Eva told him. "It says something that your mind went to vampire first. What if you had tried to stake me!?" she demanded, and the brothers looked at each other.
"I'd sue them, then kill them, then sue their corpses" Ava promised her sister who placed a hand over her heart, touched.
"Wait, why didn't you think I was a vampire then?" Danny asked.
Alan stammered for an answer before Edgar blurted, "Because you're pretty tan".
"Racist!" the twins yelled again.
"He's not" Alan defended his now red-faced brother.
"He's basically saying that no vampire, which we aren't even sure exists mind you, would want to eat her because she is Spanish!" Eva argued.
"Plenty of people want to eat Danny!" Ava said, smirk hinting to the doubling meaning making both boys blush now.
"Ah, thanks man" Danny said and Ava winked making a clicking sound.
"I got you" she said.
"I'M SORRY, OK" Edgar blew up making everyone quiet down.
"Damn, bro" Ava said breaking the silence. "Yeah, we get it. No need to freak the fuck out, shit" she said going back to the comics.
"But you- you" he said walking up to her and she turned slightly to him with a raised brow.
"Um" he said blushing again as his eyes very obviously went over her tall figure, she was only a little taller than his 5'9'' frame. Her shirt showed off a small sliver of her stomach, due to her bountiful chest pulling up the material while the jeans showed her narrowed waist, slightly wide hips and shapely behind.
"Can I help you" she said in a lower voice as she narrowed her eyes.
"So, you like comics" he said before cringing.
"Dude" Alan said quietly shaking his head.
"Yeah" she said simply.
Eva giggled and walked between more stacks, catching Alan's eye. Her smiled faded quickly when she caught his slightly googoo eyes making her shoot her own brow lift.
He swiftly spun around.
Now it was Danny's turn to laugh.
"I'll take these" Ava said walking up with two Wolfman comics.
"Werewolves" Edgar asked.
"It's kind of my thing" she said with a smirk and the brothers shared another look.
"Thanks" she said taking the bag they offered her.
The three turned to the door and Danny counted on her fingers down to one before there was a shout making the twins snicker.
"Wait" Edgar said running over to Ava. "Here, you'll need this" he said smacking a comic on her shoulder making her glare.
She smacked it back on his harder, much harder.
Eva snickered at her twin's temper.
"It's for your protection" Alan said walking over as the boys both crossed their arms, though Edgar flinched slightly. They struck a pose making Danny snort.
"Vampires?" Eva asked like she had no clue what it was. "That seems to be a running thing with you two, huh?"
"Like I said I'm more into werewolves" Ava told them acting like she didn't want the comic.
"And I'm apparently not white enough for them" Danny added.
"Think of this as more of a survival manual, to keep you safe" Edgar said, holding the comic out in a gentler action.
Well, gentle for him.
Ava's half smirk like smile was back. "I guess that's kind of sweet" she said, and their eyes widened.
"Most people just call us weird" Alan said.
"We can't really judge" Eva said. "Thanks" she said as they left the store with the still wide-eyed boys looking after them.
####SCENE BREAK#####
The guys all woke up and walked around the cave getting ready for the night.
Paul and Marko were still laughing and joking about what they had seen of the girls' day.
Dwayne and David thought it was funny too but had something bigger on their minds. They didn't like how many people hit on their mate.
"I think I know who our meal should be tonight" David said catching Marko and Paul's attention.
"Are you thinking of a certain strip club owner, or the man who tried to accidentally fall and grab Ava's breasts" Dwayne said with a scowl and lip twitch.
That still pissed them off, even if the guy missed.
"Hey, yeah" Paul said. "That one guy grabbed Eva's ass" he said angrily, looking at an equally pissed off Marko.
"This is gonna be fun" Marko said with an evil chuckle.
"What is going to be fun?" Star asked as she walked over to them. Laddie ran over to Dwayne who ruffled his hair.
"Let's go" David said not answering her.
As they neared the bike, David gave Star an order. "Ride with Paul, Star" he said, and she looked at him in surprise.
"So, trying to show that you're available?" Dwayne asked him lowly and smirked at the look the other male sent him. Unlike David, Dwayne was totally secure in his abilities to get his mate and her attraction to him.
Her saying it to the girls multiple times did help.
However, he knew that her comments on David and his attitude made the blonde moody that he couldn't easily sway her.
He thought it would be interesting to see his brother try his way to 'woo' her and fail before trying the correct way.
Dwayne's way.
Paul and Marko smacked hands, already having their own strategy of pursuing their mate. Though Marko did have to remind Paul that Eva would most definitely not appreciate him hitting on, and especially, sleeping with other girls.
The other boys didn't give Paul enough credit. Yes, he thought it was fun to hit on chicks that would mostly likely turn to dinner. But just like being a vampire, he accepted the mating thing the easiest.
He was secretly excited to see their surprise when he was the first to successfully get his mate.
All of the boys were sure that it wouldn't be too hard. Probably not very easy either, 'but how hard could it really be', they all thought.
They were forgetting that they were dealing with the Bedlam twins, girls who definitely lived up to their last name.
####SCENE BREAK#####
"Ok, but you have to admit they're hot" Eva told her sister making Ava bite her cheek and Danny giggled.
"I already admitted that Dwayne was sexy as hell, the boy makes panties explode" Ava said.
"And David" Eva said as they chilled by their bikes.
"David is…attractive" Ava admitted unwillingly.
"Only attractive" Danny teased, and Ava shot her a look.
"Fine, he's fucking gorgeous and the only person I know who will ever be able to pull off a mullet, is that what you want to hear?" she asked them annoyed, though they saw her trying to fight a smile.
"Anyone I know?" came a voice from behind her making Danny jump, Eva almost fell off her bike and Ava threw her elbow back getting him in the stomach before she turned quickly.
"Oh my God David" she said rubbing his stomach as he grunted, he still held a smirk on his lips though she could have sworn his eyes flashed gold for a split second.
"I'm so sorry, but you can't just jump out at me like that" she said rubbing his stomach.
His light glare slowly melted away as he felt her hand on his stomach and heard the actual regret in her voice.
"If it makes you feel better, we were talking about how hot you are" she said bluntly.
"It's alright" he said lowly, in a tone she had yet to hear from him.
"Great" she said, equally quiet.
"Um" Eva said shooting her sister an apologetic look. "I'm sorry, but we've got to go".
"Where are you going?" Dwayne asked, he had moved closer to the other side of Ava.
"Yeah Babe" Paul said to Eva as he put on a pout. "Marko and I were gonna show you our favorite spots".
"We were gonna give you the real tour, you'll love it" Marko said.
"We got a job. We were gonna take Laddie and Star to see us play, maybe eat and then after we could go out" Danny said making Star give her a small smile as Laddie cheered.
"Sounds good, we'll tag along" David said, eyes still locked with Ava.
"Sure" she said in an almost whisper.
"Great" David smirked before turning and making sure their bikes were secure. The other boys howled and hollered.
"Oh boy" Eva said trying not to laugh as Danny smacked her own forehead.
"Wait" Ava said blinking. "What just happened?"
"Don't take it personal Dove" Dwayne told her with a small smirk. "We'll get to know each other".
"Oh, is that so? You want to get to know us?" she asked getting her bearings back.
"Intimately" he said making her smile.
"Fine" she said, and David smirked at her again. "But I should warn you, there's only room for one king asshole around here, and that's me" she said, and he smirked.
"Whatever you say…Princess" he mocked, though it didn't sound like there was any actual malice in his voice.
"Princess" the twins said laughing. "More like Overlord" they joked.
"So, where do you work?" Star asked Danny.
"This way" she said and was surprised when the free-spirited looking girl slipped her hand in hers.
Eva and Ava fangirled behind them, both happy that although the boys paused momentarily, they didn't comment.
"Is it going to be fun?" Laddie asked taking Ava and Dwayne's hands.
"It's gonna rock" Ava told him with a wink.
"And we're gonna eat?" he asked, and Eva laughed.
"Look Ava, he has your appetite" she teased. Laddie took his hand out of Ava's, put it on his hip and shot Eva a look.
"What's that supposed to mean?" he asked and now Eva and Danny were both laughing.
"Just that you're awesome" Danny promised him.
"I know" he smiled and took Ava's hand again. The others chuckled at Ava's amazed face.
"My child!" she shouted dramatically picking him up and spinning around making him giggle loudly.
Eva noticed Dwayne watching them with a soft and happy smile.
She'd have to tell Ava later, Danny nudged her, and they nodded, knowing they both saw, and it added to figuring out what was going on.
Eva hadn't noticed the looks Marko and Paul were sending her, but Danny saw that too.
They walked into the diner, that looked much different with a younger crowd in now.
"There you girls are" James smiled at them roughly. "Who are your friends" he asked, though he didn't look put off.
"Just our buddies" Danny said. "We thought they'd watch us, eat and we'd pay for whatever they ate of course".
"Sounds good" he said nodding to the guys who gave an assortment of nods back. "So, I'm sure you can see that the night here is different, so I brought some of my old gear. Hope you can handle it" he said.
After leading the guys and Star to a table, he led them to the stage and showed them the drum set and electric guitars.
"Can you play?" he asked.
"Not as well as Ava, but she's taught me a few songs" Eva told him. "You need help with your taxes, I'm your girl" she said and he looked at her surprised.
"I may take you up on that sometime" he said. "Sing what you want girls, the papers are ready for after. How about three songs for your first night?" he asked.
"Sounds good" they said shaking his hand and going to his instruments.
"Hi everyone" Ava said, surprised when the people cheered. She realized that a few of them had been there at their earlier performance. "We have a few songs for you tonight, I hope you enjoy rock and roll" she asked, and they cheered again. "This won't be coming out for a while, but here we go. Enjoy, we are the Bedlam Terrors" she said making Danny and Eva laugh.
The twins shared a look and Eva whispered to Danny making her laugh as she started the song.
Ava was on main vocals and guitar with Eva on base, Danny on drums and back up with Eva.
The girls smirked at the guys making their interests peak even more.
Ava's smirk widened as she opened her mouth, her voice coming out like an electric wave across everyone.
"Well, I'm not a vampire, but I feel like one", she sang, and the boys' shocked laughter was lost in the music.
"Sometimes, I sleep all day because I hate the sunlight.
My hands are always shaking, body's always aching, and the dark is when I feed!" she winked at a group of girls making them giggle as people got into the music.
"Well, I can lure any woman that I want to in my bed with me" she sang as she sent a teasing shrug to David and Dwayne.
Paul and Marko were memorized with Eva's playing as Star flushed when Danny winked at her.
"And whiskey seems to be my holy water.
Mothers better lock your doors and hide your daughters!
I'm insane!
Well, I can feel it in my bones, coursing through my veins.
When did I become so cold?
For goodness' sake, where is my self-control?
If home is where my heart is, then my heart has lost all hope!"
Now it was Eva's turn.
"I'm not a zombie, but I feel like one today.
Self-induced comatose, chemical daze" she drawled out making people cheer, Paul the loudest making Marko laugh and almost fall out of the booth.
"My head is always spinning from this dizzy, blurry vision and my stomach has had enough.
I feel like a lady that is pregnant with a baby 'cause I'm always throwing up. Blah!" she mimed puking.
Now Danny jumped up, still playing.
"Hi, my name is Danny, I'm an addict."
"Hi, Danny!" the twins said.
"Daddy should've never raised me on Black Sabbath!" Danny screamed shaking her head making people join her.
One guy almost knocked over Eddie who was trying to give someone a milkshake.
Ava took back over.
"I'm insane!
Well, I can feel it in my bones, coursing through my veins.
When did I become so cold?
For goodness' sake, where is my self-control?
If home is where my heart is, then my heart has lost all hope!"
Here came the instrumentals, Ava blowing people's mind with her fast playing.
The guys' jaws actually dropped. Star held in a laugh, putting out the cigarettes that had fallen out of Marko and David's mouths.
"God bless all of you now! 'Cause I'm going straight to Hell, and I'm taking you down with me.
'Cause you know damn well!
I'm insane!
Well, I can feel it in my bones, coursing through my veins.
When did I become so cold?
I'm insane.
Well, I can feel it in my bones, coursing through my veins.
When did I become so cold?
For goodness' sake, where is my self-control?
If home is where my heart is, then my heart has lost all hope.
All hope!
All hope!" they finished to a round of howls and applause.
James motioned that they could take a break. They jumped down and went over to the guys' booth, annoyed at some girls trying to get their attention.
The table quickly made room for them. David and Dwayne somehow maneuvered Ava between them, Paul and Marko doing the same to Eva.
They let Danny sit next to Star, Laddie between the two.
"That was awesome!" Paul cheered and the guys agreed.
"You girls can play!" Marko said. "That was fucking great!"
"Thanks" Eva said as Ava nodded with Danny.
"It was great" Dwayne said making Ava smile.
"It was" David agreed and she gave him a smile as well. "Pretty rock and roll, knew you were right to hang with us" he finished, and she raised her brows.
"Oh, so are we part of the gang now" she asked, and he smirked leaning into her ear.
"Almost" he told her. The guys chuckled while Star looked down and Laddie looked torn. There was a different quality to that laugh.
"You've only known us for like a day" Ava told him. "Do you take all girls into your group after a day?"
"No, do you let strange guys follow you after meeting them for only a day?" he asked back.
"Touché" she said laughing.
"Aw, we're all friends" Eva said making everyone laugh.
"I like that Babe, but maybe something more" Marko told her seductively making her let out a small laugh.
"You work fast" she said.
He winked making her laugh again. Both he and Paul put their arms around her making her smother another laugh. She sent the other two girls a reassuring look, letting them know that the contact was acceptable.
"So, do you guys plan on watching our whole show?" Ava asked.
"Yep" Dwayne said. "And we plan on showing you around after, as your new friends of course" he said teasingly in his deep voice making her smile and roll her eyes playfully.
"Friends kiss, right?" Paul asked with a sly grin making them laugh.
"Only if it's with tongue" Danny said making them laugh louder. Even Star giggled at that one as she ate, Laddie was too busy with is sundae.
"You guys can order something to eat if you're hungry, it's on us" Ava told them all noticing the guys weren't eating. She knew what they ate, but she also knew they could eat human food.
"Don't want to be any trouble Princess, at least not yet" David said.
"Thank you though" Dwayne said, he surprised her by kissing her hand.
"Yeah, I mean…ok" she said, and he smiled. "Do…?" she asked looking around at them. Eva and Danny shrugged making the guys wonder what she was asking. "Do, um, do I do it back?" she asked him.
The guys laughed before they noticed the girls looking genuinely confused and interested.
"Have you three never dated?" David asked slowly and they shook their heads.
Their eyes widened when all four boys' faces suddenly sported smiles. They were happy smiles, but there was an element in them that made the twins almost feel like prey. Not exactly as if they were in real danger. Just that they were in the presence of predators that wanted to eat them. Eat them in what sense? That was the question.
"Really?" Star asked. "But you're so pretty" she said smiling at Danny.
"Thanks, we just never clicked like that with anyone back home" Eva said. "And we were never really into romantic movies. We're more of horror buffs" she said. Paul made a rock out sign making her laugh.
Ava just kissed Dwayne's hand. The boys chuckled, but he looked at her in surprise before his eyes darkened slightly confusing her.
She didn't know it was from desire.
He had greatly enjoyed the feeling of her lips on him, no matter how brief it was. David had to remind himself that he wasn't supposed to care about little things like that because he didn't want to give into this mate thing.
'But you want her, she's ours' his mind said. 'Yes, but I want to get her my way. Not with romantic and soft and, and-', 'and how you used to be?' his mind finished for him.
He chose to ignore it and tune back into what was happening.
"What, he never said I wasn't supposed to" she told them.
"No, I didn't" he said making Paul and Marko choke on their laughter.
"Don't I get a kiss Princess" David said crossing his arms and leaning back.
Ava picked up on his change of attitude, as did the boys who shared semi-worried looks. Star looked down nervously as the twins shared a look with Danny. Laddie leaned in closer to Star.
"Earn it, oh so chivalrous knight" she said back in the same tone that stood on the line of mocking and friendly teasing.
"I plan on it, Princess" he said.
"And that's our cue for another song" Eva said making them stand as they walked back to the stage. "What was all that about?" she asked her sister.
"I don't know, but I'm not gonna put up with his mood swings" she muttered.
"Maybe that's just how he is" Danny suggested.
"Maybe" was all Ava said.
"Was it a good idea to go against him?" Eva asked and they looked at her. "Yes, I know this is Ava and everything and you know I've never said this kind of thing before, but he's a vampire. What if he kills you?"
"I'm not going to let him be a dick to me just 'cause he could kill me. That could be said about multiple people" Ava told her as they grabbed the instruments. "Plus, I can handle myself".
"And we'd protect her" Danny said.
"I know, I'm just worried" Eva said. "They're right, we barely know them really".
"Well, I have a feeling that's going to change, whether we agree or not" Ava muttered before speaking into the mic.
"Who's ready for the next song?" she asked and there were hollers.
"What was that about?" Dwayne asked David, low enough so that only the other boys could hear.
David looked at him, Dwayne rarely questioned or went against him. His looks showing whether he agreed or not, but he didn't always vocalize it.
So, him speaking up showed how serious he was about it.
"Nothing" David said, daring his brother to keep going.
Dwayne was confident though; he was the second oldest and second in command in their gang and family.
He wasn't afraid of David; he hadn't been afraid of him in a very, very long time.
"When you're done lying to yourself and trying to upset her, I'll be ready" Dwayne said. Paul and Marko shared a look.
Star looked on wide eyes, she'd never heard anyone speak to David like that. Then again, she'd never heard Dwayne talk that much in front of her.
Laddie just scooted closer to Dwayne and watched the twins get ready to perform.
David glared while Dwayne just raised a brow and crossed his arms.
Angrily, David turned away and looked at Ava. He knew Dwayne was right, what was worse was that he knew his pride would stop him from admitting that before it was possibly too late.
He didn't want her to hate him like Star.
But he felt that he needed to test her, but he didn't want the same test he had used on the boys.
He also felt slightly bad about turning frosty towards Ava but told himself it was minor. Especially compared to what he had done to others in the past.
As David watched her sing, he decided, he'd try his way first, test if the girls could handle the change, like he originally planned. However, if it worked, he wouldn't trick Ava, he'd give her a choice and take Dwayne's lead.
He did slightly worry over the fact that he knew himself and how he would react if he thought she failed or said no.
He'd turn her anyway.
They locked eyes as she sang and he trailed his eyes over her, lust in his blue gaze but that was only one emotion.
Ava still sang the words, knowing the song by heart but a part of her wanted to sigh and another part wanted to pull her hair out.
It had been one day, and David was already a bit back and forth. She didn't know if he was wary of her, but then he seemed interested. She knew she was interested, she was also interested in Dwayne.
The usually relaxed girl who could just go with almost anything felt like she was about to lose her mind.
She couldn't help but feel like she was in for a crazy ride.
A few hours later, and glares between Eddie and the boys, and they were free to go.
"Yeah!" Paul shouted trying to dance with Eva. "Partying with the best babes in the world".
"Wait" someone yelled. They turned and noticed a cute red head, who Ava had winked at during a song, ran up and stopped in front of Ava. "I just wanted to say that was a great show, I'm definitely brining more friends next time" she said biting her lip and playing with her frayed jean shorts.
"Oh, thanks man" Ava said and the girl smiled.
"And um, I love your jacket, where did you get it?" she asked. Dwayne and David shared disbelieving look.
Was this chick really hitting on their girl in front of them. Granted, she didn't know she was their girl, yet. But that was a minor detail to them.
"I made it actually" she said. "Eva, Danny, and I like making a lot of our clothes just for fun" she told her, and the girl batted her lashes. Something that Ava completely missed.
Subtle was not her strong point when it came to romance…or most things.
Sure, she caught things if she was alert, but she wasn't looking for a threat or anything at the moment.
"What a coincidence" David spoke up making them turn to him. The girl checked him out too though she took a small step back. "So do we".
"Really?" the twins asked.
Star nodded as she showed Danny her skirt.
"I even made this shirt" Dwayne said motioning to his naked chest making Ava laugh.
"It's a hot shirt" she said. "Bet everyone wants one" she joked, and he laughed.
"Yeah" the girl said before shaking herself. "So, my friends and I are going to go to a party on the beach, do you want to come?" she asked Ava.
The guys were about to protest when she spoke.
"Oh, I'm sorry. We already made plans with our friends" she said motioning to the guys and Star. "To hang out with them, maybe some other time".
"I mean, they can come" the girl tried again as she pushed her chest out more. Ava did look down, but it was brief and lacked the response the ginger was hoping for.
"I don't think that's what they had in mind, David?" she asked turning and he smiled, well it was a smirk but close to a smile like her own, making Dwayne refrain from snorting while Marko and Paul giggled from their spots on either side of Eva.
"Sorry, they're ours" he told the girl, not sounding sorry at all.
To prove his point, he swung his arm around Ava's shoulders. His hand brushed her pulse point making him take in a deep breath. Dwayne also went to her and wrapped an arm around her waist.
Laddie stood with Star, who had once again taken Danny's hand.
Eva was squished between Paul and Marko, who now latched onto her.
"Oh" the girl said looking down. "Well, if you change your mind, we'll be having a bonfire. I'm Sabrina by the way".
"Well maybe we could hang out tomorrow or something, during the day" Eva said feeling bad for the girl who wanted to be friends with her sister.
It seemed Danny was the only one of the three that didn't require straight talk or crude words to realize that someone was into them.
"That sounds great" she smiled. "See you later" she said before shooting another under lash look at Ava and running off.
None of the guys liked the idea of the girls hanging out with her, or anyone who wasn't them for that matter.
Vampires were possessive creatures.
"Come on Princess" David said, turning so his lips almost touched her temple. "We promised you three a tour".
A/N: What do you guys think? David's attitude...it doesn't stop here. The 'poor' emotional boy. But I have back stories planned for all of them, which will eventually come to light. I hope you guys liked it. Working on the next chapters now, just very weak and tired. I know you guys get it and I really appreciate that. Review, ask, or suggest if you'd like. Until next time, have a great day.
