Out of the Frying Pan and into the Closet

Chapter 10

Lucy's POV

We are sooo dead. How could we be so careless? I thought. The chances of him finding us… while on the phone with Nicholas… were near impossible. Did life hate me or something? Later, after everything was over and he wasn't expecting it, I was sooo going to get even with him.

Kieran didn't have a chance to say anything besides, "Nicholas, that's because-" before we tackled him. Chloe grabbed the phone that had fallen to the floor. "Heeyyy Nicholas, sorry 'bout that. We had to Ummmm… tackle Kieran to the ground." Chloe said into the phone while Hunter and I sat on Kieran, trying to keep him quiet. Hunter pulled out a roll of duct tape out of one her pockets. Kieran's eyes grew wide then narrowed into tiny slits, as if daring her to tape his mouth shut. Hunter taped his mouth shut. I motioned to Chloe to put the phone on speaker. She held up one finger, telling me to wait. I sighed, annoyed.

Chloe started frantically fralling her arms around, looking frantically for something. "Hold on a second Nicholas," She finally said. She moved the phone from her ear and hid it under a pillow and whispered to us, "What do I tell him? He's going crazy… well, I don't know if he is, it sounds like it. And what are we going to do with Kieran?"

I grabbed the phone from Chloe and held it to my ear. Hunter shoved her head near the phone so she could hear as well. "Chloe? What's going on? Why did you tackle Kieran? Answer me now! Do you know something about…Lucy?" Nicholas's voice cracked when he said my name. I winced and tears came to my eyes. How I missed him! I opened my mouth to say to him that I was okay, but Hunter slapped her hand over my mouth. Chloe answered into the phone, shutting up Nicholas for the time being.

"Nicholas! I don't know anything about Lucy. Has something happened to her? And we had to tackle Kieran because he has been trying to get out of a dare. Is there anything you need before I hang up on you and start torturing Kieran?" Chloe asked sweetly.

I got tired of Hunter's hand on my face so I licked it. What? It got her hand off my face. "Ewww! Why did you do that? And Kieran, stop struggling, you'll only make it worse." Hunter said.

There was a dead silence from the other side of the phone. I thought Nicholas had hung up. Then I heard someone else grab the phone and start shouting in it. "Hunter? Is that you?" Quinn shouted. Shit. Nicholas must had the cell phone on speaker. We all stared at each other, trying to figure out what to do. Chloe decided for us; she hung up the phone.

"Now what? Quinn will be here as soon as he can, and we have Kieran spilling his guts and ruin everything." Hunter complained.

I looked at her. "But this is a school for vampire hunters."

"So? That hasn't stopped him before." Hunter shrugged. "We have two choices. One, we give ourselves up, or Two, we come up with some BS reason that I'm here and not with the witch… And I myself don't want to give up all the fun now. So, this is what I suggest…." Hunter offered.

I know, I am mean. Sorry, it turned out slightly different than I orgianally planed, but... there it is! I have one more chapter planned out for sure. After that, I am going to wait until I read the next book (has it already come out?). And keep in mind I have a HUGE stack of books I need to read, and they aren't thin!

Please tell me what you think! Thanks again for reading and reviewing!

Can't wait to hear from ya! :)
