Vlad's POV
I went into the kitchen and put my laptop on the table. I opened up the laptop and entered the password. I took this time and did the work I had put aside for later. I really needed to get it done. "I'll be outside playing in the snow." I heard Daniel scream. "Come back in when it gets dark." I said. "Ok." He said while walking outside. I typed on my laptop and looked at the emails I had. Most of the emails I had were just spam mail. I deleted the spam mail and deleted other mail I didn't want to reply to. I replied to all my emails and opened up a word document. I opened an old document that I wanted to give to Maddie but never did. The poem was called A Flower.
Everytime I look at a flower I think of you,
The colors of the petals are beautiful and so are you,
It breaks my heart when a petal falls though,
My dear Madeline I love you so much. [1]
Well I never said I was good at poetry. I only kept it for so long because I thought there would've been a chance, but there was never a chance. I still don't know why I still keep it. It might be because this was the only time I tried to write poetry. I decided to see what Daniel was doing so I grabbed my jacket and put it on. I went outside and Daniel threw a snowball at my head. [2] "What the heck?" I asked. He just kept throwing snowballs at me. I dodged most of them though. "Daniel knock it off." I said. "Nope." He said while throwing more snowballs at me. I was starting to get very annoyed. "Knock of this nonsense right now." I said. He stopped for a moment. I turned to go back in till I felt something hit my back. "Nope." He said. "Alright you're going to get it." I said while making a snowball. I picked it up and threw it at him. We kept going at this for about a half hour till the sun was setting. "I think it's time for us to go in don't you think?" I asked. He just nodded and followed me into the house.
"What's for dinner?" He asked. "What do you feel like?" I asked. "Spaghetti with sausage and meatballs?" He asked. I went into the kitchen and got the stuff out to make spaghetti. Then I started to make spaghetti. I got the sausage and meatballs out and started cooking them in the sauce.
Danny's POV
I was in the living room on the couch watching TV. Then I heard my phone ring. I picked it up and saw it was a private number. I hit accept. "Hello?" I asked. "Hello Danny." A female voice said. "Um… Who is this?" I asked. "This is Danielle." [3] She said. "I'm afraid I don't know a Danielle…" I said. "Of course you don't."She said. "So how'd you get my number?" I asked. "Oh I got it from my uncle. I guess your parents never told you that I'm your cousin." She said. "No they haven't. Why are you calling me?" I asked. "Oh… Something happened to my parents and I don't have anywhere to go. Do you think your parents would let me stay with you?" She asked. "I don't even know you and also something happened to my family and my friends so I'm with my uncle…" I explained. "Oh I'm sorry to hear that. Do you think your uncle would let me stay?"She asked. "I don't think that's a good idea…" I said.
I heard Vlad come in. "What's not a good idea Daniel?" He asked. I covered the bottom of my phone with my hand. "Well… I have a cousin named Danielle, and she wants to come live with us since something happened to her parents." I explained. "Danielle Bettes?" He asked. "I don't know what her last name is let me see." I said. I uncovered my hand and spoke in the phone. "Hey Danielle what's your last name?" I asked. "Bettes." She said. "You were right Vlad. Do you know her?" I asked him. "I've seen her before when she was with her parents at the reunion. I didn't know something happened to Christopher and Allison." [4] He explained. "Hey Danielle my uncle knew your parents." I said. "Who's your uncle?" She asked. "Vlad Masters." I said. "Oh that's who you're with then. I met him only once at our parents college reunion." She said. "So can she stay?" I asked Vlad.
"Let me talk to her." He said while taking my phone. "Hello Danielle this is Vlad. Where are you right now?" He asked. "Well I am still in my old house. I know where Danny's house is I can just walk there. My parents told me where the house was if something happened to them." I heard her say. He covered the bottom of the phone with his hand. "So they knew something was going to happen." He said softly. "Alright walk here with all your stuff you'll need to live with us. I'll take care of you." He said. "Yay, I'll be there in about 15 minutes." She said. Then Vlad hung up my phone and gave it back to me. I put it back in my pocket and walked to the kitchen with Vlad.
"Why?" I asked when I got up and followed him. "Why what?" He asked. "Why are you inviting her to stay with us?" I asked. "Because Daniel I knew Allison and Christopher before I knew Maddie and Jack. I feel like I owe them for all the times they helped me before I knew your parents. After I met them I ditched them and all of us went on with our own lives. The last time I talked to them was at the reunion and then I met Danielle. She was shy and timid so she didn't talk to me. I'm surprised you didn't see her at the reunion when you came…" He explained while patting my head. "Ah…" I said. While Vlad was making the food I heard the doorbell ring. "I got it." I said. I went to the door and opened it. Then I saw who I thought was Danielle. She had black hair in a ponytail, a red beanie, red shorts, a blue hoodie, and white shoes with blue dots on them. She looked like she was 12. "Danielle?" I asked. "Yes that's me. Where do I put my stuff?" She asked. "Just follow me." I said while leading her to my sister's old room. We got into the room and she started unpacking stuff into empty drawers.
"Just don't unpack much because we're only staying here till Sunday morning." I said. "Why?" She asked. "We're going back to Vlad's mansion after Sunday. Dinner should be ready soon." I said while going downstairs ignoring her question. When I got downstairs I smelled the food. "Is it done yet?" I asked while walking into the kitchen. "Almost Daniel." Vlad said when he heard me. "What we having for dinner?" I heard Danielle say while walking downstairs. "Spaghetti with sausage and meatballs." I said. "Oh my favorite!" She said. About 10 minutes later the food was done and we started to eat. "Wow this food is good!" Danielle exclaimed. "That's what I said the first time Vlad make food for me Danielle." I said. "Just call me Dani. It's Dani with an I." Dani said. "Dani when did the incident happen to your parents?" I asked. "It happened last week." She explained.
*Flashback*
Dani's POV
"Danielle your mother and I are going to go out for a few hours." Dad said. "But Dad what if something happens to you guys? I'm too young to live alone." I said. "If something happens to us go to Fenton works. Your cousin lives there. This is his number." Mom said while writing Danny's number on a piece of paper. I was scared that something would happen to them. "Bye mom, dad. See you later." I said. "Love you sweetie." Mom said. "Love you to mom." I said. They closed the door and left. I was watching TV till a breaking news story came on. "Hello this is Stacy. Breaking news Nasty Burger just exploded everyone around and in the complex is presumed dead." She said. The camera went around the Nasty Burger and I saw my parents' car. "No…" I said. I turned off the TV and went into my room. Then I cried myself to sleep.
*Flashback Over*
Danny's POV
Dani finished her story then I saw her crying. I saw that Vlad was shocked when Dani finished her story. I was about to shed tears to because I remembered what I was doing at that moment to. I was studying for the CATs and I heard the same breaking news story. "Dani you aren't alone. That's how my friends and family died to…" I said while comforting her. I was doing the same thing Vlad did to me when I needed comforting. Vlad was quiet throughout this entire thing. He just quietly ate the food. We broke apart and kept eating. Both our eyes were red because I let out some tears to. We all got finished eating and went into the living room. I turned on the TV and put something on. Then Dani grabbed the remote and changed the channel on me. She put on some sort of cartoon. I didn't really care at this moment. Vlad was on the chair reading the paper, and the two of us were on the couch. While we were watching TV we were laughing at some parts. We kept that channel on for a while.
A few hours later I felt Dani's head on my shoulder. "Déjà vu much? Remember when I fell asleep on your shoulder and you carried me to my room?" I said laughing. "Well since you brought that up you can go put her in her bedroom and get to bed. It's already 11pm." He said. "Oh come on!" I protested. "Shush you don't want to wake her up." He said. "Alright but before I go to bed we need to talk." I said. I walked upstairs to Dani's new room and set her on the bed. I put her under the covers and went back downstairs to talk with Vlad.
[1] I suck at poetry :P
[2] This actually was supposed to be last chapter but for some reason I forgot. I wanted it to be right after they came back from shopping, but it never happened.
[3] I have wanted to bring Danielle in this story for a while. Also she isn't half ghost…yet. The original idea was to have someone pretend to be Sam, but then I thought it was a good time to bring Danielle in. None of these stories have her in it, so I felt like I needed to bring her in.
[4] Christopher is my best guy friend's name, and Allison is mine. Also the last name belongs to Chris to. XD
That's it for this chapter. I forced myself to do 2000+ words just for you guys. Also I think that's the most reviews I had to reply to. Please keep that up. :D I love responding to your reviews. Also again that is what made me do this extra-long chapter. How do you like my take on Danielle so far? I will tell you guys' one thing: She will become half-ghost. I will not say how though.
