Yay! It's summer and you know what that means? Long nights staying up with a cup of coffee and writing stories. Haha. I'd like to thank everyone that reviewed. Keep it up.
"You should be okay if you have more sugar. If you ever feel dizzy just eat a lollipop. I'll leave a bag here for you," My doctor said. He was the only doctor I've had my whole entire life. It also seemed he never aged a bit. He smiled at me and handed me a lollipop. I just put it to the side and twiddled my thumbs.
"Why didn't you tell me that you were feeling dizzy?" Kale asked. He was always concerned about my fainting. I just shrugged it off. I grabbed the pad of paper and began writing.
It just happened suddenly. I'm sorry. I looked at him with pleading eyes.
"It should be alright if you walk around now. Just don't do any strenuous activities till tomorrow," The doctor said. I nodded my head. "Just call me if you ever need me."
"Do you want something to eat?" Jared asked me. I nodded my head yes. I was starving at the moment. He smiled, kissed me on the forehead, and asked, "What would you like?"
How about a taco? I asked. He chuckled and left. I had begun to feel more comfortable around him. A question then popped up in my head. How were Kale and Jared brothers if one of them is a vampire and the other is human. I looked over at Kale and he was looking out the window.
I wrote a message on the pad of paper and tapped his shoulder. I showed him the message which read, How are you human and Jared is a vampire?
Kale chuckled and replied, "It's because the first born takes all the vampire genes and powers while the human just has extraordinary strength and lives a little longer than the expected human does. Jared was born two years before me."
Oh, okay. I looked out the window and seen two birds playing a game of tag. I smiled to myself and pulled my legs to my chest.
"I'm back with a taco and a soda!" Jared said happily as he entered the room. I smiled and began eating when he handed me the plate. "I'm going to make sure you eat the proper amount of food you are suppose to. The doctor said that might've been the problem."
I was eating pretty fast and I didn't realize how hungry I actually was till he brought me my food. The taco was gone in a matter of minutes and I took a few sips of soda. It felt as if my belly was going to explode.
Jared was sitting next to me and had watched me eat like it was the most interesting thing in the world. I smiled at him, he leaned closer, and then he kissed my lips. I felt a small tingle. I was hoping for more, but Jared had already pulled away.
"Well, I've got to go for a little bit honey." He got off my bed and I waved bye to him. He smiled and blew me a kiss before walking out the door.
"I have to go get some sleep. I didn't sleep all night," Kale said and got up off the foot of my bed. He hugged me bye and I hugged him back. After a little bit of sitting by myself in the bedroom I got bored. So, I got up and decided to wander around the house. I've never got a chance to look around that much. This place was pretty big. It wasn't big enough to be considered a mansion though.
I took a sip of my soda and heard a scream from the bedroom I was standing next to. I became curious, opened the door, and seen Jared. He was feeding from one of the maids. She had blood running down her body and made a puddle around her feet. All I could see was Jared's back. The girl's face looked terrified and like she was feeling a vast amount of pain. My glass dropped and shattered on the floor.
"Jared," I whispered and felt a tear drop from my eye. Jared turned around and looked as if he was in shock. There was blood all around his face. The blood had matched his eyes except the fact that his eyes were glowing. I took off running back to my bedroom. I locked the door behind me and hid in the closet.
"JUNE! Please, come out or unlock this door!" I heard Jared yell. I shook my head no even though he couldn't see me. My whole entire body was shaking. I was pressed in the corner terrified. My body slid down and I stayed in the fetal position.
"June, it's me, Kale. Open up!" Kale said in a calm voice. I ignored him and stayed in the closet. I heard the bedroom door open and someone walk in. They stopped for a second. The closet door opened and Kale was standing there. I screamed and hid my face in my knees. Kale picked my up and I flailed my arms and tried getting out of his grip.
"What'd you do to her?" Kale asked Jared in a very threatening voice.
"I didn't do anything. She walked in on me feeding," I heard Jared say. I flinched at his voice and held onto Kale. Images of Jared flashed through my mind. Tears kept flowing from my eyes.
"I'm scared, Kale!" I said. Jared and Kale were speechless. I knew I could talk but found it very difficult to. "Please, get me away from that monster!"
"Okay, I'll do anything for you, June," Kale said. He began walking and took me outside. Kale set me down on a bench in the rose garden. I opened my eyes and looked up at him. There were still tears flowing out but not as bad.
"Tell me what happened."
"I was walking around sipping on my soda. I heard a scream from a bedroom and decided to go investigate. If I would've known Jared was feeding I wouldn't of gone in. I-I-I didn't know!" Kale pulled me to him and hugged me.
"I'm sorry. I wish you had never seen that." I rubbed some tears from my eyes and Kale had a rose in his hand. "Jared is a good person. He would never do that to you."
"I know. I just can't help but feel scared." Kale handed me the rose and kissed my forehead.
"I see you as a sister and you know I wouldn't even allow a fly to harm you. I know my brother he would never ever do that to you."
"I just need some time to clear out my mind."
"Okay," He said and grabbed a hold of my hand. He rubbed circles in my palm to calm me down. I twirled the rose in the other hand and looked at the waxy petals. It was gorgeous. The door that we had escaped out of opened and Jared came out. I got up, dropped the rose and ran through the maze of rosebushes.
"JUNE! PLEASE COME BACK!" I heard Jared yell to me. I kept going and going until I got lost. There was a little opening up ahead and I could hear water flowing. When I made it I found out it was a little miniature garden. There was a koi pond with a waterfall, a gazebo, and an apple tree. I sat in the gazebo and relaxed.
I was finally able to think. Earlier today my dreams claimed I had special powers. I began wondering how to use them. I started focusing on the water kind of commanding it to come up and form a ball. The water lifted a little but had splashed back down.
"If you want to use your powers you need a guide and protector," A voice hissed at me. I looked around trying to find the owner of the voice. "No need to talk. I am up here."
I looked up and seen a very large snake in the woodwork of the gazebo. The snake was gorgeous. It was a bright green, with white zigzag patterns going down it's back, and a bright yellow bellow.
"My name is Deandria. I can read your mind since I'm your guide." Deandria is a pretty name. This is how I'm suppose to learn my powers? Deandria slithered down the poles of the gazebo and looked at me eye to eye. "If you want to learn how to use your powers I'd advise you to listen to me no matter what I say." I nodded my head letting her know I understood. She slithered up on the bench and around my neck.
"There is only one thing I want to tell you for today. Always put your heart into your work. Concentrate and feel the power. Now let's go. I'm getting quite hungry." I smiled at Deandria and got up to go back. The only problem was I didn't know which way to go. So, Deandria told me how to get out of this maze.
Once I arrived back Kale's and Jared's eyes opened with shock at what I brought home. I ignored Jared and went inside. Kale had followed me.
"So, what's up with the snake," he asked.
"Her name's Deandria and get her some food please." My throat started hurting from all the talking I've done today. I needed to give it a rest and go back to my mute self. I got hungry and started going to the kitchen. Hopefully Jeff could whip up something real quick.
"Ah, it looks like you got yourself a pet," Jeff said in a joking voice. I smiled at him. "I'm guessing your hungry."
I nodded my head yes and he smiled at me. I grabbed the pad of paper at the table and wrote, Make it a surprise.
Jeff chuckled. "Okay, I was already preparing the meal for the maids anyway. You can have what they are having."
I cringed at the word maid. It reminded me of Jared. I looked down and seen Deandria asleep. After a few minutes there Jeff had the food ready. He set it down in front of me.
"Shrimp alfredo. Bon appetite!" He said. I began eating while I kicked my feet back and forth.
"JUNE! Please, don't run away from me! I want to talk to you," Jared said when he slammed the doors open. It had caused Deandria to jump. I shook my head no to him and ignored him.
"You should listen to this man, June. He is no threat to you." Deandria whispered in my ear. I sighed and set my fork down. I turned to Jared and looked at him.
"I love you, June. I hate the feeling of you being scared of me. Will you please just forget what you saw. I would never do that to you." He leaned forward and kissed me. It wasn't the same as the peck he gave me earlier. It was ten times better. I moaned and began kissing back.
AN: I decided to leave you guys off with a good ending this time. Hehe. If you review more it would result in fast updates. Picture of Deandria on my profile. She's a really gorgeous snake.
