I guess I'm not a lazy piece of crap, seeing as this...is...chapter...four! I feel like Ryan Seacrest! Ye-ah!
"Okay, so here's your bed," Michelle pointed to a twin-size over in the corner. I was shocked to see that all my stuff had already arrived. Michelle, fortunately, understood my confused glance. "The vamps have their sources," She winked, then grabbed my arm and began pulling me towards a door.
"Wha-"
"Closet!" she screeched. Well, clothes do rock. Before I could open my mouth to speak, Michelle said "There's a little uniform, not much though. Basically, we have to wear black and have our class' emblem. Quite chic." Black? Luckily, I had gone through an 'emo' phase last year, black clothes were no problem.
"What's our emblem?" I suddenly asked, just thinking out loud.
"We're third-formers, so it's a silver spiral, meaning our descent into the Path of Vampyres," Whoa, deep.
Instead of saying something infinitely profound and unforgettable, I opted for the ingenious "Rad, Mitch,"
"Did you just call me a bitch!?" Michelle's eyes held the burning fury of a million suns. I backed away, up against a wall.
"Huh? What, no! I said Mitch! Like with a M! As a nickname!" Babbling incessantly, my face reddened. Pressure screwed with my head. Michelle softened.
"Oh, I'm sorry! Okay, Mitch is a great name!" Her face was now very bubbly and happy, as nothing had happened.
Freaked out a little, I kind of hesitated. "Um, I'm going to change...and then explore the grounds?" I made it a question, not wanting Mitch to flare up again.
"Okay!" She replied before skipping off like a child. It was all a head rush. I took a deep breath then opened my new closet.
Inside, there was, of course, all my familiar clothes, but there was more. New skirts, dresses, shirts, and jeans, all with price-tags still on them. On some jackets, I found the emblem Mitch had mentioned before. I guessed that the vampyres had gotten these for me. "I am forever in Zoey's debt." I whispered, fingering a silk blouse. I stood in there taking it all in. After much internal deliberation, I chose to wear a black and pink striped top, a pair of jeans and a simple jacket.
Walking swiftly, I made my way to the bathroom. I looked in the mirror and saw a person staring back at me. She had my blue-green eyes, my full lips, my straight black hair falling in her face, but she wasn't me. A dark blue crescent moon was her most dominant feature and she looked older, more worldly. Oh, definitely not me.
Shaking it off, I got dressed in my new ensemble. It took a minute, seeing as I am incredibly slow. After I was done, I walked out, deliberately averting my eyes from the mirror. I saw Michelle sitting where she was when I first arrived, cursing still. Trying to avoid her, I just casually slipped out. When I did, a rush of cool, fresh air hit my face. I think I'm going to like it here.
A/N Okay, yes, I know it's short. It is because I'm only allowed a little while on the computer. I'm in trouble, which is also why I haven't updated. You see, not only did I attempt to steal my parents' car, but, as I ran out the front door, I shook the keys and yelled "What cha gon do now, suckas!". Unfortunately, they caught me and grounded me. I'm back though! Anyway, review and vote on my poll if you haven't already!
