This is something I've wanted to write for a long time!
It's gotta be split up though. I'll have the rest up soon!
Enjoy!
Part One
Gianna's POV
I was doing my job, like I did everyday. I did the same thing, day after day after day. I came to work at eight in the morning and had lunch at twelve. I went to the Cafe across the street for my lunch everyday. I'd get a salad roll, a cup of coffee and read the daily paper. I'm vegetarian so a salad roll was pretty much all I could have. I found the killing and eating of animals to be absolutely disgusting!
Everyday, I'd watch Heidi bring in groups of tourists for them to drink. The screams weren't so bad once you get used to them. I didn't really mind them anymore. It was actually quite relaxing. It just ment everyone would be in a good mood for the next couple of hours.
They'd come out of the Great Hall laughing and imitating the people they had just devoured! Oh, how I wished I could be like them. Their beautiful, sparkling features and soft, shining hair.
Like I was saying, it was a regular day. It was two in the afternoon and I'd just finished some paperwork Aro had given me. Heidi had just brought in the second set of tourists and the screams were ecoing through the tower. I sat back and closed my eyes, letting the screams enter my mind and allow me to daydream.
I must have shut out the outside world because the next thing I knew, Felix was tapping my shoulder.
"Gianna... Gianna!"
"Huh! What? Sorry.. I must have nodded off."
"It's okay. Umm... What was I gonna say... Oh yea! Aro wants to see you."
"He wants to see me? Why?"
"I don't know. But he's in a good mood so I don't think its anything bad. Anyway, I gotta go." He called to me as he walked to the end of the hall and out the door. "See ya later!"
"Well, I better not keep him waiting." I said to myself. I stood up and walked to the Great Hall. I knocked on the door before I entered, just to be polite. Obviously he would know it was me.
Aro greated me as soon as I was in the door. He skipped over to me. It was the fastest skip I'd ever seen.
"Ah.. Gianna. Your looking lovely today." Aro always had a strange, giddy smile on his face. It was kinda creapy sometimes, but like the screams, you get used to it.
"Umm.. Thank you Aro!" I tried to hide the fact that I was creeped out.
"My plessure." He replied. He took my hand and began walking back towards the other end of the Great Hall. "Oh.. Your sister's Sixteen today. How lovely!" The way he did the whole 'mind reading' thing also creaped me out. Then I remembered, 'Shit, he knows what I was thinking.'
He obviously heard that because he let go of my hand and said, "Sorry, I'm creaping you out again."
"Oh get on with it Aro!" This was the first time I noticed Caius was in the room. He was leaning against the back of Marcus's chair, while Marcus sat there with the same 'bored' look that he wore 24/7.
"Yes, thank you Caius. Back to business." Aro turned to face me with a more serious look on his face. The smile wasn't gone, but he looked more serious than before.
"I must speak to you about a serious matter." Now he was making me nervious. "Lets see.. hmm.. How long have you been working for us?"
"Well.. I'm twenty now, I started working for you when I was sixteen... About four years now."
"And.. how long have you wanted to be like us?"
"Every second since I found out what you were."
"I'm going to give you an oppertunity Gianna. You've worked here for four years now and you've proven to be quite loyal..."
"Are you offering me what I think you're offering me?.."
He took my hand again, held it and let it go.
"Yes, exactly!" He chirped cheerfully. "Now I can't garentee that you'll have a gift... but imortality itself is quite rewarding."
"Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!" I began to hyperventalate. Then my voice got very high pitched, "Oh, Aro, thank you!" Then I pulled myself together. "I swear you won't regret this."
"I hope your right. Now, if you'd like to come with me." He gestured to a door hidden behind a pillar at the end of the Great Hall.
He walked to the door opened it and gestured for me to enter.
This is what I'd been waiting for. This is what I'd been dreaming about for the last four years. I was about to recieve the greatest thing anyone could ask for. I was about to become... A Vampire.
Hope you enjoyed that! I did! XD
I'll post Part Two soon!
