This is probably the latest update I had ever had for this story. Luckily I didn't forget it all together. Sorry about the mega delay to all you people who enjoy this story so much. I want to get it finished soon so I'll just listen to Skye Sweetnam and focus on typing.

Chapter Thirteen:Dorkiest Vampire Alive
"That was simply humiliating…" Freddie groaned as he slapped his palm to his forehead. I chuckled at his expense. His family wasn't weird because they were undead blood sucking super humans, but because they were just…weird. Chloe made me laugh, Spencer was nonchalant, Shane's expression was priceless, Carly was so bubbly, Jake was a goof ball and Valeria was…well I don't like her so forget that. "What are you thinking?" Freddie asked glancing at me.
"I was just thinking about how normal your family is." I laughed as we tuned a corner back into the foryer of the house and went up the stairs. He led the way, holding my hand gently in his. He was always careful with me and his touch was feather light, like he was a ghost. As we continued up the steps I noticed an odd looking piece of artwork hanging on the wall. After close inspection I realized that it was a bunch of graduating caps. "Graduating caps?" I questioned out loud. Freddie paused and looked towards the piece of art.
"Oh yea…most of those are mine. Chloe thought it would be funny to exhibit the many times we had graduated high school." Freddie explained as he gestured for me to continue following him. I rolled my eyes at the not so humorous joke. I would never be able to go through school that many times. I already hate it now.
We entered a hall on the second floor and there were many doors. Each one had a different name on them or in Jake and Valerie's case there was both their names on one door. Technecally it wasn't that bad that they shared a room. They certainly were old enough. Freddie continued to lead me down the hall before we reached a door with caution tape all over it. I quirked an eyebrow.
"Oh…that's Carly's room. She hates when people intrude." Freddie explained. I nodded in understanding. I should follow her example to keep Dan out my room. I realize he's my father but he had no right to go in my room. We reached the end of the hall and there was the door with his name etched across the front in metal and perfect cursive.
"Isn't the sign kind of girly?" I asked pointing at the sign. He chuckled before shrugging his shoulders as he reached for the door knob.
"Oh not when you bend that sign with your bare hands." He responded cockily as a smirk tugged at the corners of his mouth. My heart skipped a beat and I grit my teeth. I hated the way he could get me so flustered just by smirking like that.
"Impressive Freddork." I commented as he turned the knob to the door and lightly swinging it open. If he actually had swung it open that door would have died a horrible death. I entered his room and was nearly blinded. He entire space was mostly white. The walls were white and the carpeting was plush and pearly white. The only furniture he had was a white desk, a white couch, and a white book case which was filled with CD's with the stereo in the center. One entire wall was made of windows as well.
"This is my room…" he sighed looking around like me as if he had just entered the room for the first time. I strode over to the book case and began to search through his music. Most of the CD's I didn't like so I just tossed them over my shoulder for him to nimbly catch.
"Obviously Vampy…you have horrible taste in music." I commented as I noticed that the stereo was on. I pressed the play button and up beat waltzing music began to play. I scrunched up my nose and shook my head as I reached to shut it off, but Freddie's hand stopped me.
"Dance with me Puckett." He said in an almost commanding tone. I raised my eyebrows in surprise. I liked that tone of his.
"I don't dance Shay…" I trailed off before he spun me around and swiftly grabbed my right hand and placing his left hand on my hip. With a small jerked he pulled my closer to him and I could feel that untimely blush creeping up my neck.
"You do now." He said as he attempted to glide us across the carpeted floor on beat to the music. I struggled to keep up and I grit my teeth in annoyance. I was never the type of girl to waltz around like a wind up doll and yet he had me doing just that. He spun me around before gently dipping me, his face mere centimeters from mine. His gaze traveled towards my neck and he smirked at me. "You smell delicious…"
"Ha, you're funny but I'm certainly not afraid of you." I laughed nervously. I wasn't afraid. I was just flustered at the closeness. He chuckled, almost darkly.
"You really should not have said that." He muttered. He took my arm and swung my over his shoulder and onto his back. I wasn't even given the chance to gasp before he jumped out the window and latched himself to a tree like spider man. I glanced down and noticed we were far off from the ground and I gasped. "Hold on Sammy." He instructed.
Sammy…why did that sound so familiar but far off and distant?
I shook my head and clutched around his neck tightly as he began to scale the tree with ease. It was like his finger tips were suction cups. The higher we went the tighter I gripped. I wasn't about to let myself plummet to my death. We reached the top of the tall evergreen and I could see the river that Freddie and I had been hanging around a few days back.
"You trust me Puckett?" He questioned breaking me from my thoughts. I looked towards him to see him smiling at me from over his shoulder. I shrugged in response to his question.
"Yea I guess." I mused. At that moment his body seemed to pull in before he sprung out from the tree top like a flying squrriel. I began to laugh at the sudden rush I was receiving as we glided through the air before landing on an oak tree top.
"You are so impossible Freddie! This is not real!" I laughed as he jumped to another tree. He laughed along with me and when he landed on this tree he placed me on a branch to sit.
"Anything is possible and its real in my world." Freddie responded as he looked out over the scenery. I followed his gaze. I was never a nature gazer but the surroundings were simply beautiful.
"It's…amazing." I muttered.
"Yes, you are." Freddie said. I gave him a playful glare before punching him on the arm. He grinned at me boyishly and I couldn't help but laugh again.
You are truely the dorkiest vampire alive...or dead." I laughed.
I know it's rather short but I'll get a jump on making the next one longer or better or whatever. I hoe you all enjoyed this short filler I guess. I hate referring to one of my chapters as just fillers. So I hope you review because it encourages me…
