Myrnin's point of view
"Hello Amelie." Oliver said coming out the stairs and filling the lab with his icky smell.
"Hello Oliver. When did-" I elbowed her, which I would probably regret. I took her wrist and lead her away but she didn't budge.
"Come on."
"I won't move until you tell why you hit me." Amelie said, glaring.
"It's important. Now come on. You can speak to this nice man later." I said pulling on her arm. She sighed and followed me. I went into my bedroom and shut the door.
"Oliver came here, a year ago I think. You were in love which I advised was highly not recommended. But you don't show that. See you are the Founder of this town and Oliver has been trying to take your position so just act like like you know everything." I said, quietly.
"Excuse me? We are not in love." Amelie said. "And I'm not the Founder, I would know that."
"I know but you keep that to yourself. If he tries to kiss you or anything," the thought made me want to vomit. "Just hit him or something. And we gave you that title right before you woke up. Neither of us is capable of doing it."
"Right. What else do I need to know?" Amelie asked.
"Well... Not much really. Claire who is coming really likes you. Also Oliver works in a coffee shop to see how good he is at being human." I said. The door knocked.
"Have you finished talking now?" Oliver asked.
"And he's impatient. A lot. So something you would have to get used to again." I said.
"Oliver is not impatient. I might have known him for only a few years but he's not impatient." She said. I sighed.
"Yes but since he got here he does get impatient. It's terrible..." I sighed dramatically. Amelie just gave me a look and went outside.
"How is working in a shop?" Amelie asked.
"Do you know Shane Collins?" Oliver asked. I kicked him and he glared at me.
"No, why should I?" Amelie asked. I sighed.
"Yes. Do you know Claire?"
"Myrnin-" I dragged her off again, this time with luck since she wasn't expecting it. I shut the door.
"You don't say that you don't know him! If Oliver finds out you have forgotten then he will go after your position." I said.
"Pull me like that again and I pull of your arm. I really don't know this boy, why would I lie?" Amelie asked. I scratched myself.
"Um, well, because you do. Or you did. And Claire is special to you." I said.
"Why? I never met her." Amelie said. I thought of something to say.
"Because... She's your daughter!" I said. Amelie stared at me.
"What?"
Claire's point of view
I was in my bedroom looking at the note Myrnin threw through the portal attached to a rock. It said I had to go to his lab to sort out whatever mess I did. He also put that he said Amelie remembers me, or has been told she remembers me. I sigh and got up and went to the wardrobe and picked out denim trousers and a dark blue t-shirt and I put on my jacket and left a note and went out.
The weather was nice but all I could think of was what would happen when I got to the lab. When I eventually got there I waited at the start of the alley. I took a breath and went down the alley and opened the door then went downstairs. When I hit the last step I saw Oliver down there.
"Hello Claire. Came to work?" Oliver asked.
"Myrnin asked me to come." I said. I walked over to the chair and checking for any saws left there I sat down. I could just about hear Myrnin in his bedroom, which he never uses and Amelie. I got a bundle of nerves just hearing her voice. Then I hear something and I am sure Oliver heard it too,
"Claire is special to you." Myrnin said.
"Why? I never met her." Amelie said
"Because... She's your daughter!" Myrnin said. I sat there shocked. Myrnin does crazy things all the time but saying to I am Amelie's daughter? Why did he think of that? Oliver slammed open the door and pushed Myrnin out. He dusted himself off the saw me.
"Ah Claire, you made it! Excellent."
"Why the Hell did you say I'm Amelie's daughter?!" I stood and shouted at him.
"Ah, right you heard that did you? Well you and her did have a nice relationship and just trying to get here to remember that. But she does smile a lot more now, Claire. Today I most I have seen hee smile in 100 years." He said. I sighed and sat down.
"Well she doesn't know what to believe now that Oliver has gone in and told her your lying." I said. Myrnin shrugged.
"I think she believes me more." He said. The door opened and Amelie came out. She grabbed Myrnin'sand whispered something in his ear. "Well yes what I meant was you see her as a daughter because you like her so much." He said. "And this is Claire by the way."
"Hello Claire." Amelie said.
"Hello. Nice to meet you." I said. Amelie nodded.
"Yes it is." Amelie said.
"Amelie said she would love to visit to your housemates so she knows everyone." Myrnin said. "Ow! Try to not squeeze my arm so hard, please?"
"I didn't say I wanted to meet them." Amelie said. Myrnin shrugged.
"You have got to be curious. And it would help if anyone else asked you about them." Myrnin said.
"Please?" I asked. Amelie stared at me for a while then let go of Myrnin's arm.
"No thank you." She said. "I would like to talk to Oliver for a bit."
"No, no you can't do that! Go with Claire she really would like some bonding." Myrnin said.
"No Myrnin. And I already know Oliver why would I want to bond with her?" Amelie asked.
"That is the point of bonding! I want to speak with Oliver and it will take ages. Now go go!" Myrnin made shooting motions. Amelie glared at him then walked out of the lab. Myrnin handed her her coat, I presume and I quickly followed. "Try not to mess things up." He said to me on my way out. I sighed and followed Amelie.
"So um... Amelie. Uh... How are you?" I asked. I had no idea what to say.
"I am fine." She said. "Can you drive?" She asked.
"A little I guess." I shrugged. "We could walk through town if you like. It's not that far."
"It's strange that before maybe Myrnin drugged me that it was 1914 and horses were used for transport and now you have these." She gestured to cars. I breathed a sigh of relief. She had only lost about 100 years... That was a lot but it was better than nothing.
"Uh yeah they're cars. Come I'll take you to my house." I said walking. Amelie followed me.
"How do you know Myrnin? And Oliver?" Amelie asked.
"I... Saw him when he was outside and he asked if I wanted a job. And I see Oliver in the cafe." I said.
"You don't seem sure of yourself." She said. Another word for Your lying, I thought.
"Yeah I can't really remember." I said. We walked past Common Grounds and I decided to point it out. "That's Common Grounds. It's where Oliver's works."
"Looks nice." Amelie said after a quick glance. "Why would Myrnin move me out here? Surely he could have gotten someplace with less Sun?" I bit my lip.
"He wanted to be away from people. Because of the whole vampire thing. And the people here are controlled, sort of so it's fine." I said.
"Right." Amelie said. We carried on walking till we got to the street the Glass House is on.
"Well here it is." I said after we had come up the street and stood in front of the house.
"It's nice." She said. I nodded.
"It's very big." I said.
"Are we going inside?" Amelie asked and I nodded walking up the path and opening the door.
"Come in." I said. Amelie walked past me into the house. "Where are the people you live with?" She asked.
"Well, Shane's out, Eve's working in the college campus and Michael's gone out I think." I said shrugging. Amelie went into the living room and sat down on the sofa.
"So you know who I am?" She asked. I nodded. "But I don't know who are you are."
"Yes um Myrnin made you sleep and..." I sighed. "Well I know you because we met... When I came and I think you had amnesia." I said.
"Vampires don't get amnesia. What are you trying to say? Because I know Myrnin is not telling the truth." Amelie said.
"Wait here." I said and went upstairs to attempt to see if Myrnin's phone worked. I typed in the number and waited.
Will the number work? Maybe, maybe not... :P
