Carolyn
Hope you like it and please review!
Chapter Fifteen
Carolyn could be seen stirring in her sleep and at approximately nine at night her eyes opened and she was staring into Andy's eyes. She felt more refreshed now that she had slept and she felt as though she was still in touch with her humanity if she was able to do what normal humans do. Andy's eyes opened as Carolyn was watching him and as soon as he saw her facing a smile was instantly playing on his lips. Carolyn allowed herself to sit up and look around the room. Her new eye sight was never going to get old to her. Andy sat up with her but pulled the covers even closer to him which restricted Carolyn. She sighed and managed to shuffle out of the bed and over to the shower. As soon as she was in she closed the door and locked it as she let out a deep breath. Her senses were overwhelming her at the minute and she was beginning to want them to be dull again. She mentally shook herself and walked over to the full length mirror. Her reflection never ceased to amaze her. Just turning into a vampire had made her look flawless. She shook her head slightly and looked around for some clothes. She settled on a black tee and some skinny jeans and then she was allowing the door to crack open slightly so she could return to her bedroom where Andy was waiting. She flashed him a huge smile and opened the door to the hallway.
"Do you want to do anything today?" Andy asked. Carolyn turned back to face him and bit her lip as she thought about what they could do.
"We'll ask Jake and Aurora if they want to do anything" Carolyn sighed and Andy nodded happily. They walked down the creaky stairs and into the kitchen where they looked for Jake and Aurora. They could not be found in the kitchen but the back door was open so they went out into the garden where they were sitting on sun loungers that were now only used when it was night. If anyone in this house tried to sunbathe then they would be dead within the first minute. They were sitting around the pool having a pleasant conversation. When they heard their footsteps behind them they both turned and flashed them bright smiles. Andy and Carolyn took a seat next to them and smiled back.
"Do you want to do anything today?" Andy asked. Jake and Aurora looked at each other and they looked as though they were having a conversation with their eyes and it made Carolyn want to 'aww' at them but she managed to refrain. Finally they turned back to Andy and nodded.
"Where are we going?" Jake asked and now it was Andy's turn to have a conversation with Carolyn using his eyes. Carolyn's eyes went wide and Andy instantly knew that she had an idea.
"Why don't we go to that park?" She asked. Andy knew the park that she was talking about. It was the park that he had always gone to with Carolyn. It was the park where Andy and Carolyn would sit and write little stories and songs. Jake also knew what park she meant since that was the park that they had kissed for the second time. The first time they had kissed had been stir of the moment but the second kiss was the one that Jake had been planning. Jake immediately stopped thinking about Carolyn since he knew it would just get him angry and focused on how happy he was with Aurora. The feel of her hand on his sent chills through his body and he instantly held on to it as though he was afraid to let her go. He had only known her for short amount of time but he knew that he was falling in love with her and he knew that he hadn't felt that with Carolyn. He loved her but he had now realised that he loves her like a sister. He would always look out for her but that's as far as it's going to go. He likes Andy and Carolyn together as well and one day he knows that they will have little vampire babies. It was something that he had always wanted and now he was beginning to think that he could have that with Aurora.
"I'm going to get changed" Aurora sighed as she was wearing denim shorts and a tee shirt and it was beginning to get cold. Jake followed her into the house and left Andy and Carolyn inside the house where they sat and talked.
Jake and Aurora went upstairs and Aurora went to go get changed in the bathroom. When she came back out she was wearing black skinny pants a red tee shirt and a leather jacket that was zipped up. She was also wearing black leather boots that had her pants tucked into them. She went from looking like a sweet girlfriend to a badass girlfriend. Jake gave her a confused look and Aurora instantly knew that she was going to have to explain her change of clothes.
"What are you doing?" Jake asked as she started raking around in the wardrobe.
"Do you watch the news?" She asked and Jake laughed loudly.
"I'm not interested in the stupid stories that humans find so shocking" Jake said with a hint of the laughter that had just burst from him still lingering.
"There have been murders around here that point to the originals" Aurora said. Originals were the name that the vampires that kill humans give themselves and now they are attacking around this area.
"Shit's going down" Jake laughed as he tried to make this light hearted.
"I'm not going out to have fun. I'm going to kill and I suggest that you guys stay here" Aurora sighed and Jake instantly looked hurt.
"I'm not a new vampire so I can protect myself and you" Jake defended. Aurora's look softened and she rested her hand on his shoulder.
"Andy and Carolyn are and they're going to need protection" She explained as she turned away and continued trying to look for what she needed.
"I'm going" A voice sounded and Aurora was about to turn around to tell Jake not to but it was Andy that had said it. Aurora sighed and then proceeded to laugh at how naive he was. Andy rolled his eyes at her laugh and continued to hold his ground. Carolyn appeared behind him and smiled warmly.
"Me too" She sighed and Aurora's eyes went wide. Aurora knew that Andy could probably stand up for himself but Carolyn was far too new at this.
"No you're not" Jake said and Aurora could have hugged him for it. Finally someone had grown some sense.
"You can't stop me" Carolyn said quietly and Aurora felt like hitting her. How could she not realise that they were telling her not to go because she would get killed.
"Try me" Aurora said quite menacingly but Carolyn did not flinch under her gaze. Instead she grabbed Aurora's collar and pinned her to the wall and let one of her tears fall.
"Let me help you" Carolyn pleaded. Aurora had to admit that Carolyn was packing a lot of heat for a girl with such a little body. Aurora looked away but managed to nod lightly and then Carolyn was off her. Aurora turned back to the wardrobe and finally got what she was looking for. She pulled out a few daggers and handed them to the three and then pulled out what looked like the sharpest sword in the world.
"How come you get a sword and we get little daggers?" Andy asked and he looked at the dagger in his hand with disgust. Aurora rolled her eyes and laughed lightly.
"I have one sword and I can actually use it" Aurora laughed. Jake took her hand and sent her a reassuring glance.
"Can we have a private moment?" Jake asked and Carolyn and Andy nodded kindly and left the room. Jake waited until he heard the footsteps get a little quieter until he done anything. He walked over to Aurora and let his arms fold around her as he hugged her tightly. She let her hands rest on the small of his back and her head on his shoulder.
"If you can't fight them then just run" Aurora cried. Jake held onto her tighter and he let a tear slide down his cheek. He forced her to look at him and he pressed his lips to hers. She immediately let her hands cup the side of his face. Their tears mixed as they kissed and their hands conjoined. Aurora finally pulled away and wiped her eyes and she tried her best to smile but it was a failed attempt. Jake took her hand and tried to smile comfortingly at her.
"Let's go kill some originals" Jake laughed and Aurora joined him.
Meanwhile, Andy and Carolyn were sitting downstairs and an uncomfortable silence loomed over them. Finally Carolyn decided to speak up.
"What if we get hurt?" Carolyn asked. Andy knew how high the risk was and that was why he wanted to make the best of the time that they had now. He turned round quite suddenly and let his head rest on Carolyn's as he looked closely into her eyes.
"We need to make the most of what we have now" Andy sighed and Carolyn nodded. She closed her eyes tightly as she tried to stop any tears falling from her eyes and it seemed to work quite well.
"I love you" Carolyn muttered and Andy let his lips attack hers. She kissed back and let her hands rest on his chest while he supported all of her weight. He managed to pull away and laugh lightly.
"If we make it through this then we are so getting married" he joked but somewhere deep down he knew he was being serious. Carolyn laughed and kissed his cheek lightly.
"Of course I'll marry you if we make it through this" Carolyn laughed. Andy looked at her with a shocked look planted on his face and it soon turned into a happy look.
"I love you" He sighed and Carolyn smiled brightly. All her fear of death had been crushed and she was cheerful again.
"I love you too" She whispered and just then Aurora ad Jake came down the stairs. They both smiled and had weapons in their hands.
"Are you ready?" Aurora asked as though there was a chance to back out but Carolyn knew that if there was a chance then she still wouldn't back out. She nodded and smiled warmly before standing up with her own dagger in her hand. Aurora took three steps forward and dragged her sword on the floor. It carved a line in the wooden floor and Carolyn's mouth hung open.
"I payed for that" She said pointing at the line and Aurora and Andy laughed. Jake stayed silent and Carolyn could tell that he was upset and she knew exactly why. He was scared for Aurora.
"Sorry about that" Aurora laughed. Carolyn rolled her eyes but smiled to show that she wasn't being serious and followed her.
"This is the last time I'm going to have a fight if you're going to damage my floors" Carolyn joked. Andy was standing behind her and kissed her neck gently which made Carolyn giggle. Aurora turned round with a smile on her face.
"This is not the time to be kissing each other" Aurora joked. Jake suddenly stopped moving behind them and they all turned round to see what was wrong.
"Please stop acting like this is all just a huge joke. We need to be on our guard at all times" Jake scolded and they all blushed as they instantly felt guilty for doing so. They all nodded and Jake attempted to smile so they didn't feel too bad. They closed the door behind them and made their way to the park where the originals would be waiting for them.
A cliff-hanger! Please review!
