Disclaimer: Nothing has changed over the path of the last 4 chapters I still don't own Shadow Falls!
Della's P.O.V.
"Wolf," I grumbled clearly annoyed. I wasn't going to hide my dislike from her if she wanted to come barding in then she deserved to know that I had no care for her at all. Funny how she didn't say her name so everyone knew who she was. Okay like we didn't all recognise the voice on our own. Still it would have been polite! I definitely want to whoop her wolf ass away from shadow falls permanently. To be honest I don't care that Holiday would disapprove because although we have gotten closer since Kylie cares about her I still won't let her be in charge of my life. I don't even care that Burrnet would punish me he isn't the only vamp and I can stand my ground. It's Kylie that stops me she would kill me and stop talking to me and that is just too much! To tell you the truth Frederica had kind of grown on me sure we weren't friends but we were no longer enemies either which was a start.
"Please I need to speak with Lucas it's important pack business," Frederica's voice echoes through the cabin. Everything about the pack seems to be important. To them it was I guess. Seriously though no other supernatural was as naturally annoying as the were wolf!
"I am kind of in the middle of something," Lucas says the rims of his eyes turning orange.
"What?" she asked. You herd him LEAVE!
"Can somebody just let her in?" Miranda asked. Miranda definitely has a point. Listening to her yell through the door was getting on my nerves. However I would much rather her just leave.
"I'll get it," Kylie stands up and walk up to the door to find Federica's fist lifted to try and knock on the door again she immediately lowers it. Yeah if you hit my friend I hit you back harder! Okay so Kylie is warming up to her a little I'm not so whatever.
"So what are you doing?" Frederica asks. Funny how the important pack stuff is now forgotten. Yeah well I haven't forgotten.
"We are reading a book about when I first got to camp," Kylie says we all know she will just annoy us until we tell her so why not just cut to the chase? I could already hear Kylies argument when everyone left. Do you want to know why because the people currently in our circle is kind of our 'pack' if that is how you want to look at it and sometimes things are only meant for members to know. Frederica raises an eyebrow but doesn't question Kylie.
"What are you doing here?" I ask trying to speed up the visit. I say standing next to Kylie.
"Not as important as your stuff so I'm staying," she says as if it's her right.
"Who said you were invited," Miranda asks now standing on Kylie's other side.
"Look we all know I will listen in anyway so why not let me listen from inside?" she asks as if it's the most obvious answer ever and we all know she isn't lying. Well actually Burrnet and I know she isn't lying but it's easy to guess.
Frederica joins our circle she sits opposite Kylie and Kylie then walks over to Lucas sits back down in his lap. "Can I read?" Frederica asks.
"I hope so you are in grade 11," I joke.
"You know what I meant," she said and I reluctantly handed her the book.
Kylie's P.O.V.
"Chapter Three
Three days later, Kylie, suitcase in hand, stood in the YMCA parking lot where several of the camp buses picked up the juvenile delinquents. She freaking couldn't believe she was here.
Her mom was really doing it."
"Kylie it's not just your mom you know," Holiday says. I know this but she feels it important to mention it to me anyway. I understood why though it seems like back then I blamed everything on my mom I feel bad now.
"And her dad was really letting her mom do it."
"Better," Holiday said smiling. It had seemed so had to see my dad as anything but perfect back then, but now I have seen so many flaws!
"Kylie, who'd never drunk more than two sips of beer, who'd never really smoked one cigarette, let alone any pot, was about to be shipped off to some camp for troubled kids."
"Gifted kids," Miranda said. Was she planning on pointing out each thought I had on the camp before I had even been there.
"I didn't know that!" I argued. Seriously who dose she think I am a fortune teller?
"Her mom reached out and touched Kylie's arm. "I think they're calling you.""
"Who is calling her?" Perry asked. Are you serious it's not like he wasn't there!
"The bus," I said slowly gosh I don't think Perry's mind works in the mornings.
"Could her mom get rid of her any faster? Kylie pulled away from her touch, so angry, so hurt she didn't know how to act anymore. She'd begged, she'd pleaded, and she'd cried, but nothing worked. She was about to head off to camp. She hated it but there was nothing she could do. Wait you cried?" Frederica asked confused but then continued.
"Not offering her mom one word, and swearing not to cry in front of the dozens of other kids, Kylie stiffened her back and took off to the bus behind the woman holding the sign that read SHADOW FALLS CAMP.
Jeez. What kind of hell hole was she being sent to?"
"It's not that bad," Burrnet said smiling proud of the camp that was now half his.
"When Kylie stepped on the bus, the eight or nine kids already there raised their heads and stared at her. She felt an odd kind of stirring in her chest and she got those weird chills again. Never, not in all sixteen years of her life, had she wanted to turn and run away as much as she did now.
She forced herself not to bolt, then she met the gazes of … oh, Lordie, can you say freaks?"
"That is just rude," Miranda said and Perry nodded putting his arms around her. Wow are you serious they were going to judge every thought that goes through my mind! Well I hope they write a book about all of their points of view and I hope I find them so I can criticize them all.
"One girl had her hair dyed three different colors—pink, lime green, and jet black."
"Oh! That's me. See that people she noticed me first!" Miranda said proudly. She said that as if I wouldn't notice the girl with 3 different hair freaking colours first!
"Some of us hadn't even been on that bus," Lucas said.
"Another girl wore nothing but black—black lipstick, black eye shadow, black pants, and a black long-sleeve shirt. Hadn't the goth look gone out of style? Where was this girl getting her fashion tips? Hadn't she read that colors were in? That blue was the new black?"
"Probably a wolf," Della said.
"What's wrong with what wolves wear?" Frederica asked sitting in front of us in black skinny jeans a black T-shirt and Black bracelets. I struggled to hold in a laugh it was so true and obvious how did she not get it?
"And then there was the boy sitting almost at the front of the bus. He had both his eyebrows pierced. Kylie leaned down to peer out the window to see if she could still see her mother. Surely, if her mom took a look at these guys, she'd know Kylie didn't belong here."
"Yes you do but we can always take you down to a Tattoo parlor if you want," Miranda said smiling.
"Why do you suggest tattoo's?" I ask her curiously.
"Because we have pierced 'freaks' as you would call them goth 'freaks' and different coloured hair 'freaks' but no tattoos!" Miranda said it as if it were a crime.
"Actually Frederica has a Tattoo," I say and everyone except Lucas and I look shocked.
"You told her?" Lucas asks Frederica furiously. Why is that the first question why ask him why not ask me how I knew?
"No she saw you showing it to me," he said simply. Lucas always good with words, not!
"You were snooping?" Frederica asks and I expected her to have steam come flowing out of her ears.
"No you were in the spot I liked to go to calm down and think I had been having a really shitty... you know your going to read about it soon enough," I said. Crap I wish they weren't about to all get to re laugh at my most embarrassing moments.
""Take your seat," someone said, and stepped behind her.
Kylie turned around and saw the bus driver. While Kylie hadn't noticed it earlier, she realized even the bus driver looked a little freakish. Her purple-tinted gray hair sat high on her head like a footbal helmet. Not that Kylie could blame her for teasing her hair up a few inches. The woman was short. Elf short. Kylie glanced down at her feet, half expecting to see a pair of pointed green boots. No green shoes.
Then her gaze shot to the front to the bus. How was the woman going to drive the bus?"
"That is a good question," Perry asked laughing at my thoughts.
""Come on," the woman said. "I have to have you kids there by lunch, so move it along."
Since everyone but Kylie had taken their seats, she supposed the woman meant her. She took a step farther into the bus, feeling as if her life would never, ever be the same."
"Right you are on that one," Burrnet said.
""You can sit by me," someone said. The boy had curly blond hair, even blonder than Kylie's, but his eyes peering at her were so dark they looked black."
"That would be me, the second one here in this circle who was noticed," Perry said raising his hand as if he were in class.
"He patted the empty seat beside him. Kylie tried not to stare, but something about the dark/light combination felt off. Then he wiggled his eyebrows, as if … as if her sitting beside him meant they might make out or something."
"Ewe, No offence Kylie but I only have a thing for Miranda here," Perry said smiling. Miranda then leaned in and kissed him on the lips and Della ewed.
"Real mature," Miranda said smiling.
"I know it's the middle of the chapter but I really need to go to the washroom," Della complained.
"Okay everyone washroom break," Holiday said as Frederica marked the spot we were at with a Kleenex she took from the box on the table behind her. Almost everyone left so they wouldn't all have to she=are our washroom thank goodness I don't want it to smell, anyway I stood at the door waiting because I knew Della would be pissed if I stole the washroom and looked up to see Frederica hadn't left yet.
"Classy," Della said joking with her.
"Just go take your piss," Frederica said.
