"Well I really really like you too." I intertwined our fingers as I set my back against him. I smiled setting my head under his chin, and looked up at the stars.
Our romance was ruined by my cell phone going off. I pulled it out to see that I had a text message. I viewed it and saw that it was Raven. "Where r u? I'm at the Crypt looking 4 u."
I looked up at Claude who was still looking up at the stars. I set my phone back in my pocket and then turned my head to look at his face. The moonlight shined on his face and it caused me to notice how handsome he was. I smiled. "So Mr. Devious, I thought we were gonna go to the Crypt?"
"We are. Let's pack up." He said.
I reluctantly moved from his arms. I stood up and fixed my dress, and then held my hand out for him but he was already standing up. I helped him pick up our mess and once he got it back into the bag he set it back in the pocket of the bike. He got on then helped me on. We headed to the Crypt.
We got there and I saw Alexander's hearse. I climbed off Claude's bike and then once he was off his fingers laced with mine. I smiled and we headed in.
Godsmack's "Voodoo" was playing loud across the venue. I looked at Claude. "May I have this dance?" I asked. He smirked and I led the way to the dance floor. We danced along to the beat.
Out of the corner of my eye I saw Alexander and he was looking at us. I ignored this call to come over because I was having the time of my life. As the song ended Claude dipped me down and smiled to me. His smile made my breath quicken for just a second.
"Hey Kira, Claude." Raven said standing next to us as he brought me back up.
"Hey Raven." I said smiling.
"Think I can steal you away to help with my make up." She asked.
I looked at Claude. "I'll be right back." I said.
Claude frowned but let me walk away. Raven led me into the bathroom and looked at me.
"Girl I told you to be careful with him." She said.
"Look Rave, I have garlic in my pocket. I'm seriously okay." I said.
"You better. Where were you guys? I thought you said he was getting you at 7?"
"He had a picnic for us." I said.
Raven looked at me. "Really?" She asked curious.
"Yes. It was really sweet of him." I blushed.
"Girl don't fall for him, he's D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S." She said.
I rolled my eyes. "He hasn't done anything to harm me, until then I will give him the benefit of the doubt." I commented. "Now if you don't mind I want to get back out to my date." I added.
"Just remember what I told you. I don't trust Claude."
I rolled my eyes and headed out of the bathroom and saw Alexander talking to Claude. I shook my head and headed over to the bar and spotted Jagger bartending. "Whoa... Jagger, you bartend?" I asked.
He looked over to me. "Well Romeo asked for the day off, and I gave it to him. What would you like Pretty Girl?" He asked.
I rolled my eyes. "Isn't Onyx here?" I said. "I'd like a Bloody Screamer."
"Yes she's here but she's off dancing with Sebastian." He said, starting to mix my drink.
"Awe poor Jagger." I smirked.
"Here's your drink." He handed me it and before I could pay Claude was behind me handing him money. "Hello Claude it's been a while."
"It has been, but I'm on a date right now so I'll have to catch up with you sometime." Claude said.
"Alright. Take care." Jagger smiled.
Claude twisted me around to look at him. "So Alexander must like you enough to threaten me." He commented as I was pushed into him by a group of preps from my school, Claude steadied me against him.
"Yeah well Raven warned me about you, and that 'you're dangerous'." I said. "So shall we have another dance?" I finished my drink and handed the cup back to Jagger who nodded a thank you.
Claude smiled as they started to play "Sweet Dreams" by Marilynn Manson. He grabbed my hand and led me to the dance floor.
"So Angel, what time do I have to get you home?" He asked spinning me away from him.
"My mother said 11." I frowned as he spun me back into him. "After this dance I'll have to check in."
Claude smiled down to me as he held me closer to him. "Tell her I'll get you home on time." He smiled.
"I will." I set my head on his chest and we danced. When the dance was over I called to check in, and it was already 9:30 time flew by.
I watched a small group of girls walk up to Claude. A few of them flirted with him but he showed no signs of flirting back, in fact I heard him say, "Excuse me, my date's waiting."
I smiled when he walked up to me. "Thanks for not flirting with them." I said.
"No problem they don't know me. I only flirt with people I like. . ." He said. I smiled sliding my hand into his. "Would you like another drink Angel?"
"Please." We walked over to Jagger and we ordered some drinks.
We headed over to one of the couches and we sat down. He set his arm behind me. He took a drink of his smoothie which I was sure had blood in it. I set my head against his arm.
"So what are you doing tomorrow?" He asked.
"I was planning on having a movie day." I said. "Would you like to join me?"
"I would like too, Shall I bring popcorn and candy?" He asked.
"Sure, let me call my mom and let her know that you're coming over tomorrow." I smiled. I called my mother back. She right away said that he could come over, as long as I had a chaperon with us. "I'll invite Alexander and Raven mom!" I said. She agreed to that so I told her goodbye and then hung up.
Claude looked at me. "So we're gonna have to invite your body guards?"
"Mom's orders." I frowned.
"Darn how am I supposed to be devious with him around?" He joked.
"Well I'm sure they'll wind up making out." I giggled. "Which leaves us time to flirt or be devious."
"True, shall we go find the lovely pair?"
"Eh. I'm sure their stalking around us somewhere. They think you're up to something, you know." I said looking up at him.
"I'm not. I'm just looking to fit in with someone." Claude said looking into my eyes. "I mean I have Rocco, Kat and Tripp but it's not the same."
"Well you fit in with me. How does that make you feel?" I asked.
Claude beamed. "It makes me feel wonderful."
I beamed back. "You are so adorable." I said.
"Look who's talking Angel." He used his other hand and set his index finger under my chin. He made me look up at him and smiled.
I bit my lip. "Do you know how many times we've almost had our first kiss now?" I asked.
"Like three times." He answered. "Are you hinting that you want me to kiss you?" He asked raising his eye brow.
"Maybe." I answered.
Alexander popped between us. "What's this I hear about movies at your place?" He asked.
"Movie day at my place you, Raven and Claude?" I asked.
"Sure."
"Shoot... Alex... I was going to start it earlier in the day... how are you gonna be able to come?" I asked.
"Well I can meet up later. What shall I bring?" Alexander said.
"Well Claude's bringing the popcorn and candy. I can make steak for us for 'dinner'. Why don't you bring the drinks for you and Claude? Raven and I will probably drink coffee. Oh delicious coffee." I smiled.
"You and your coffee, I'm glad Raven isn't that much of an addict!" Alexander smiled.
"Hey I need coffee like you need blood!" I said. "So if I'm an addict, then so are you." I commented.
