CHAPTER 2

"Communication"


Vlad ran at vampire speed across Bathory to get to his best friend slash drudge's place.

As soon as he reached there, he immediately went to the side of the house to check on Henry's window. Seeing no light from within, Vlad decides to float up and check on him.

As he reaches the window, he sees Henry flat on the bed, snoozing off while drooling on his pillow. He then notices his cellphone, which was beside him, blinking. He could already sense that October was the one calling him, and by the looks of it, his phone must be suffering from a low battery and 27 missed calls.

Vlad tapped Henry's window in hopes of waking him up. Instead, nothing happens. He sighed, and closed his eyes to concentrate. After a while, he pushed with his mind.

Suddenly, Henry rolled out of the bed lazily and made a huge thud on the floor.

Vlad opened his eyes and sees that Henry is no longer on the bed. He waits for a while, then he sees Henry standing up while holding his forehead with his hand. Henry looked out the window as if on cue and smirked at Vlad. He went to the window and opened it.

"Come in, Dracula."

Vlad chuckled a bit at Henry's remark and went in. As soon as his feet were on solid ground, he looked at Henry with a furrowed brow.

"Dude, do you have any idea how long you've kept October waiting?", said Vlad with a worried voice.

"Wait... what?", Henry said as he dashed to his bed to check on his phone. He grunted frustratingly and sees that October had made already 34 missed calls. So much for 27.

"I slept on her. And my phone is on the verge of dying. Great. Just great.". Henry fell on his bed and covered his head with the pillow. Vlad smiled weakly and took the pillow off him.

"Y'know, you could visit her right now.", Vlad suggested. Henry pretty much knew that already, but in his state of depression, he couldn't even think of that.

Henry looked at his best friend and smiled. He stood up and nodded at Vlad.

"Yeah, I should. Could ya wait in the living room? I'll just change."

"Alright. Make it quick."

"Yes, your majesty.", Henry chuckled.

Vlad made his way down the stairs into the living room. He settled on the couch and waited for Henry. And while he was waiting for Henry, he was thinking about what would October do to him. He hoped for the best. And then he remembered his own girlfriend. Snow.

He tried to contact Snow with telepathy, hoping he could get a response from his girlfriend. He did teach her telepathy before, so he was hoping a response would come back.

Snow? Are you there? Vlad thought.

V-Vlad? Is that you?

Yeah... you're awake at this time?

I couldn't get any sleep. And you?

I don't wanna sleep yet.

But my boy needs to get sleep.

Vlad blushed at those words. I'm a vampire, babe.

Vlad heard Snow's giggle in his mind. Alright, alright. You got me.

Vlad smiled. So... how's Europe? Having fun?

Yep. My parents and I are having a great time. We'll be home in a week. Do you want me to get you something? A souvenir, maybe?

Vlad went silent for a while then replied. All I want is you.

Awwwwww... you're so sweet! If only I could kiss you right now...

Vlad blushed heavily at the thought and smiled. I love you, Snow.

I love you too, Vlad...

Well... you should get to sleep. Even if you are a bloodsucking creature of the night. Vlad chuckled.

Snow giggled. Yeah, I know. Well... good night, Vlad.

Good night, Snow. Take care there, alright?

Okay... I love you.

I love you too.

Vlad couldn't wipe the smile off his face. Just then, Henry went out of his room and went to Vlad. He noticed his smile.

"Hey, what's got you happy?", Henry questioned.

"Snow.", Vlad blushed lightly and smiled.

"Awwwww... ain't that sweet?", Henry suddenly turned around, hugged himself, and made kissing sounds.

"Duuuuuuuuude! Not cool!", Vlad furrowed his brow at Henry as he did that.

Henry laughed hard. "You should've seen your face!"

Vlad was already blushing heavily as far as Henry could see. He tried his best to hide it, but to no avail.

"Let's just go to October. Or else you'd die by her hands."

As soon as Vlad said that, Henry lost the laugh in him as he remembered that he needed to go to October. He grabbed Vlad's arm and rushed out the house.

It was 11:30 p.m. and they were running towards school. Not a casual thing for a student to do, but Henry had pretty much no choice.


It doesn't feel like I wrote much, or like I wrote something worthwhile. Well, I just hope you enjoy it.
