Castiel and I walked over to the courtyard tree where Destiny and everyone else were sitting.
The heat was a bit too hot for me, so I ran as quickly as I can to the tree's shade.
Castiel was staring at me weirdly, but I just smiled and acted like it was nothing.
I know that I said that it was okay for me to be outside, but not really.
I would turn red all over and my skin would be a bit tanned.
I sat down on the dry grass beside Lysander and zoned out for a while.
I was thinking about my father.
I know that he went somewhere, but where?
My dad only wants to protect me, but I always smile and say everything is all right.
He tries to keep me away from this evil thing called 'love', and he always wins.
..Why?
Did something bad happen to him before?
Or maybe it was just mother's death.
I felt a tap on my arm, but ignored it.
Another tap.
A poke.
Then I came back to reality when Destiny was shaking me.
"ARE YOU DEAD? ASHLEY! LUNCH IS OVER!" Destiny screamed.
I guess I zoned out for a long time, even if it felt like a minute.
"I'm coming," I muttered.
I got up and dragged behind Destiny and the others to my next class.
Until I bumped into a group of girls.
We all stopped, and the hallway became quiet. You could hear a pin drop.
"Sorry," I said softly.
The 'lead' girl turned around and smiled.
"Look what the cat dragged in..." she trailed off, laughing.
A looked at her with a confused face.
"What?"
She just laughed and left.
I felt someone grab my arm and drag me away from the staring crowd.
Castiel.
"Hey, what was that about?" I try to make my voice sound like I was desperate for the answer.
He shook his head, muttering things about her being an idiot.
"What, is she in love with you or something?" I laugh as I say this. I didn't really know him too well, but I don't think she was his type.
He paused.
"Yup. Is it a big deal?"
What the hell? Who says that?
I frown.
I turned to leave, but he roughly grabbed my arm again.
"Hey, why are you so mad when it has nothing to do with you?" He says.
I pull my arm away, and just smile.
Maybe it does have to do with me.
First of all, maybe she knows I'm a vampire.
But how? I never met her before.
Weird.
I walk away, trying to avoid his eyes burning into my back.
On my way home, I felt a sudden craving.
It was a bold taste, like copper.
Blood.
I needed it, but I didn't want to harm a human.
I looked around to see if no one was watching, and no one was.
I decided to walk home on my own that day, since I bumped into the beauty team.
I turned to look at the garbage can.
I could hear the bickering of the mice around it.
I smiled.
Perfect for lunch, I thought.
I grabbed a mouse, and bit into it.
The coppery liquid dripped out of it.
I heard a shriek behind me.
I turned around, completely surprised.
It was the girl that was a part of, or owned the group I into bumped into earlier!
I stopped, and threw the mouse on the ground.
My fangs were sticking out, my blue dress filled with blood stains.
The girl's blonde hair was sticking out from ever side, and her teal eyes were wide open.
"Y-y-y-you're a-a..?" Her words ended up sounding like a question.
I looked closely, and noticed that she had similarities with someone.
Nathaniel? Or…?
"Are you Nathaniel's sister?" I said. In my head I was praying she wasn't.
She nodded, walking backwards slowly.
My thoughts were messed up.
I broke the biggest rule in Vampire history.
And I'm going to get my punishment.
Even if she tells anyone, the Vampire population will eventually find out.
I thought about how my father would react.
"Please, please, please don't tell anyone! Or… or I will… bite you,' I said, trying to act vicious, though I was crying inside.
She nodded again, and ran away.
