Chapter Fourteen: And He's Mine
"You and Shay, Seattle? I don't agree with it." Travis commented as we sat in the court yard of the school. Dani shot him a look and Jeannette lifted her eyes from her book for a split second only to have them scanning over the page again. Ethan remained silent next to her.
It's been a while since I actually hung out with them. Usually Freddie and I would be using this time to go on a run. It was common for him to swiftly snatch me up fling me on his back and take off. I especially enjoyed when we jumped from tree to tree just like the day when I officially met his family. After all we've been through I could assure anyone that I was in now way, shape, or form, afraid of heights.
Just a few days ago he had ran me all the way to his house to show me something. He's been fiddling around with music a lot lately so I thought that he had written me some love song…but my boyfriend knows better than that. Instead he gave me something very valuable to him. It was a locket that he said his birth mother had been given as some sort of promise before they had gotten married. He explained to me that it was the last remaining piece of his humanity….
After we had gotten past the sentimental moment he gave me another gift which happened to be my very own custom made car. He said once I got my license it was all mine. The car was made from scratch and designed specifically for me. He called it The Sammy I called it the best gift in the world that I would cherish for the rest of my life…next to this very important locket that hung around my neck.
"He looks at you…like you're something to eat." Travis said in a low tone as he glanced across the court yard to see Freddie, Jake, and Shane exchanging words. Like always, it was impossible to read their lips but it was amusing to try. Freddie glanced over in our direction and rolled his eyes. He obviously heard what Travis said.
"So what? Freddie may be creep and he may be a dork, but he's my creepy dork. Live with it or live without me." I retorted smartly flashing a coy smile. Travis laughed dryly before turning away. Dani smiled kindly at me before leaning towards me.
"He'll come to live with it, trust me." She muttered so only I could hear. I smiled and nodded in return. She liked Travis and having him always concerned about me must be annoying but he would come around soon enough…if he wasn't as stupid as I thought.
"Sorry I'm late…school project." I said as I entered the house and went straight to the kitchen were Dan was pulling on his sheriff jacket. I went straight towards the fridge as I heard Carly's Porshe speed away. I wasn't ready to tell Dan about Freddie so Carly has been my cover up, which wasn't that bad considering we were like the best of friends now.
"That's okay, I was just about to leave anyway." He said as I went straight for the fridge to pull out some ham. I kicked the door shut and sat at the table.
"Really? Where ya heading?" I asked as I shoved a slice of ham into my mouth. He paused for a moment and glanced at me nervously. I quirked an eyebrow, silently urging him to explain.
"There has been a breakthrough in this animal attack case. A human foot print was found close to another attack scene. Whoever is doing this is moving quickly." Dan explained in his low police tone. I nodded in understanding as another slice of ham made its way into my mouth. "Enough about that, what about this big project you've been working on with the Shay girl."
"Oh, Carly? Yea we have been getting a lot of work lately." I lied as I played with my food. He nodded slowly as if he were unsure.
"I've never seen you working so hard…you probably have no time for boys." He added hesitantly. My brow furrowed.
"I guess not, but not a lot of guys are my type here; they're all so plain." I lied again laughing lightly. Freddie was anything but plain so the lie was rather ironic. Why was I talking to my father about boys anyway? If I told him I liked someone he would probably arrest them or at least conduct a background check.
"Yea, that's what your mom said." He sighed in a bittersweet manner. I flashed a small smile as he made his way out the kitchen, muttering a goodbye as he left. I let out a small sigh and took the packet of ham and ran to my room. I didn't mind being alone but being downstairs and alone didn't go well with me.
I locked myself in my room and turned on my laptop. I went into my music and let the song Decode by Paramore fill my room as I could hear my father speed away in the charger in the background. Before I could plop myself down on my bed, or even reach the chorus of the song, my phone went off. I let out an annoyed sigh and turned down my music before bringing my phone to my ear.
"Hello?" I breathed into the phone.
"Sam! I'm so glad to have caught you!" The cheerful voice of my mother cried. I nearly punched myself in the face for not checking the caller id so I could have avoided this. I laughed dryly with mock excitement and my mother continued. "I've missed you sweetheart! To think I'll be moving from Seattle without you!"
"Yea…but Lewiston is doing me some good." I responded truthfully. Moving here was the best idea I could have ever come up with. Between making friends with Dani and Jeannette and getting the most perfect dork for a boyfriend, there was possibly no better choice I could have made.
"Really!? It can't be the fresh air…is there a boy involved?" She asked coyly while adding in her own little giggle. I rolled my eyes but couldn't fight the small smile that formed on my face. It was like she could read my mind which seemed to foreign to me although I've been living with it all my life.
Mom has never been this caring and interested in my life before…
"Y-Yea, I guess you could say that." I chuckled. She literally squealed in delight which made me pull the phone from my ear and wince.
"Oh how wonderful! You have to tell me everything! Is he cute? Is he tall? Is it that Cameron boy from your childhood?" She rambled. My expression went from blank to disgusted once she mention me actually liking Cameron.
"Yes, yes, and ew!" I said. A blur moved out of the corner of my eye and I quickly turned around to see Freddie standing at the foot of my bed. I had to stop myself from jumping at his sudden appearance; that was something that took time to get used to. "Mom I'll call you back."
"Aw! Come one let's talk boys! I hope your practicing safe…" before she could finish that embarrassing comment I slid my phone shut. Freddie smiled at me knowingly.
"How'd you get in here?" I snapped walking around the bed so that I was standing between him and the bed. He shrugged nonchalantly and gestured to my now open window. "That is qualified as forced entry."
"I've been doing it for a while, while you're sleeping of course, so it shouldn't matter." He retorted simply waving off my comment. My face twisted in mock disgust and amusement.
"That's qualified as stalking and creepy." I pointed out. He laughed lightly and I quirked an eyebrow at him.
"Pardon me, but if I heard correctly, which I do one hundred and ten percent of the time, you said that I was your creepy dork." He said smartly. I narrowed my eyes at him and gave him a hard slap across the face for using my words against me. His face didn't even flinch. He just continued to give me that boyish smile and my hand began to throb.
"So why are you here while I'm awake?" I inquired. His expression changed from a smile to serious. My own smile faded as my brow furrowed in confusion.
"I just wanted to do something that I haven't tried before." He said lowly as he tilted my chin up. His cold fingers brushing against my neck caused my breath to hitch in my throat in anticipation. "Just…stay still please." I slowly nodded.
He leaned in towards me and I awaited to feel his warm breath tickle my lips like my mother had describe…but then I remembered that Freddie didn't have the obligation to breath. His lips hovered over mine and it drove me crazy! Why was he being so hesitant.
"Don't move…" His voice was so low and smooth that it moved like silk over my senses, sending a small shiver of pleasure down my spine, making my hands twitch.
His lips gently brushed over mine and they were just as cold as I had anticipated. I thought steam would rise considering how hot my lips were. After the minor contact I couldn't help it. I moved in for another brush…just a small one…that son led to us kissing hungrily; needy on my part. Wave after wave of desire came over me only saying that it wanted more. He leaned over me pushing me back into my bed and before anything could move on from that point he was on the other side of the room leaving me panting for air on my back.
"I…" He began but he couldn't find the words. His eyes had darkened slightly and I understood what was wrong. I felt guilty all of sudden as I became aware of the pain he had just put himself through.
"I'm sorry…" I apologized lowly. I hated apologizing but I think it was needed. I was practically taking advantage of him to meet my own needs, not even considering that just being within ten feet of my caused an agonizing thirst to well up inside of him.
"I'm stronger than I thought." He muttered in a bittersweet manner. He must have been referring to his restraint from draining me of every ounce of blood in my body.
"Too bad I'm not." I sighed as I pulled my legs up onto the bed so that I was sitting crossed legged. He smiled at me kindly and strode back over to me. He leaned over and placed a chaste kiss on my lips that left them burning. I bit my bottom lip as he took a seat next to me.
"That's just another thing to love about you. I bet you're just as fierce as a vampire in bed." He commented arrogantly. I clenched my hand into a fist and punched him with as much force as I could in the arm. He pretended to cringe for my sake while I retracted my now throbbing hand with a yelp.
"You dumb, stupid, dorky, moronic…" I trailed off as he trailed a cold hand from my shoulder to my lower back. A tremor traveled through my body and he chuckled lightly.
"I love you too Sam."
If there are any mistakes or whatever pay them no mind. I just ran over it quickly because I have to leave in like ten seconds…ok five minutes but you guys get it. Thanks for all the support and I hope to get some more reviews.
Later
