Mystic Waters High School
Chapter 9
Note: Another chapter! Wooooooo!!!
Lucifer:I couldn't believe her reaction towards me. I thought she was going to reject me like everyone else here. Like my family. She's my soul mate. She has to be! Bonnie and I headed to our next hour. We couldn't stand to be in the cafeteria and I guess I wanted to know what she was thinking. Our walk was silent though she never let me go the whole time. When we arrived, she leaned against the wall and I stood two steps away from her. Silence was still kept between us and I decided to be the one to break it first.
"Why?" I frowned slightly in confusion.
"Why what?"
"Why did you accept me even after…I showed you what I was?"
She smiled. "Because I know you're a good person, Lucie, and I don't want to lose the only real friend I've ever had."
I was shocked deeply. I smiled back. "Thank you for staying with me. You're the only person who's paid attention to me and I don't remember the last time someone did that."
Her eyes held sadness for me. "What about your family?"
I shrugged. "They don't care. It's like I don't have a family."
"I'm so sorry, Lucie."
I snorted. "Don't be. They were holding me back from my art."
"Why?"
"Well the real reason I'll never know but they kept telling me it was a waste of time."
Her mouth dropped open in disbelief. "No way! They told you that?"
I nodded. "I swear that's what they said."
"Then you did a good job in ignoring them. So…who do you live with?"
"No one. The school is letting me stay in an apartment about 5 minutes from here because of the art scholarship I earned."She nodded, impressed.
"Lucky you!"
"Why lucky?"
"Because you can live alone and I have to live with my mother who gets me embarrassed because she starts blabbing more than she needs to everyone she meets."
I laughed sincerely. "Well I guess every parent is like that!"
She laughed with me. And what a lovely laugh and smile shehad.
Damon :
I can't stand her smiling and laughing for…him! That stupid mutt! I'm better than him in every way! He knows this is making me jealous! I snorted in disgust and looked away from the sight and began to think. I heard the bell rang, indicating lunch was over and the next hour was going to begin.
"When do you go to class again?"I glanced over at my brother.
"Don't know and don't care."He smirked and I glared.
"Shouldn't you be in class?" I asked.
He shrugged. "Yeah but…I don't feel good about something."He sat down next to me.
I raised an eyebrow in question."Like what?"
He didn't answer right away. "Wish I knew."
The bell rang for class to start. "When did this start?"
He seemed to think about this deeply. After a moment he frowned slightly. "I guess…when I first talked to…" he trailed off. He didn't continue.
"To…?"
He got out of his daze and shook his head quickly. "Nothing. I'm going to class. See ya."
He was gone. That was weird. I looked back at the spot where I imagined they wouldn't be talking anymore. I slow smirk appeared on my lips. Two can play at this game.
Stefan :
It all started after my first talk with Rosa when she was a new student at Mystic Waters. I sensed she was different than the other female vampires here and she drew me to talk to her because of that. She was really nice a little shy. I think I started to fall for her. But I was afraid. Afraid she didn't feel the same way. It could just be a simple crush or something. But I guess I couldn't talk because what did I feel for her? I wasn't sure but it didn't feel like a simple crush to me. It felt like something more but I didn't want to make a move until I explored this feeling further. I arrived at the door of my classroom and I knocked on the door gently.
"Come in, Mr. Salvatore." the Astronomy teacher said.
I opened the door and I went inside, closing it quietly and going to my seat.I sat down next to my lab partner, Daniel Quimby.
"Where have you been?" he whispered.
"Thing with my father."
"You've been having a lot of things with you father these days."
"Daniel you know I don't fall behind so don't worry. Your damn grades will be fine."
He was a little shocked with my language and he turned back to the teacher.I sighed and slowly looked over at Rosa. She quickly looked away. She had been staring at me.
Rosa:
The bell rang and I was packing my stuff quickly. I said goodbye to my lab partner and swung my bag over my shoulder. I began walking towards the door and Stefan was suddenly walking next to me. He motioned for me to go through the door first and I let out a quiet thank you.
"Can I talk to you? I'll accompany you to the next class so you won't get in trouble." he looked serious and nervous, making me nervous.I nodded and stepped to the side of the door and leaned against the wall. He stood a respectful distance from me.
"I'm sorry." he said.
I frowned in confusion. "Pardon?"
"I'm sorry for avoiding you--not that I've been avoiding you but…I've had things to do with father and my classes."
I nodded, taking it in but not sure where he was going with this."Okay. Don't worry about it." I said.
"I really do like talking to you, Rose. You're a nice girl with great personality and I can see you're smart. If you want, can we continue being friends?…that is if you consider we ever were."He was very nervous and it was very cute. It was nice to know someone popular at this school who's not a pervert and a jerk and who actually has feelings.
"Yeah. I'd like that." I said, smiling. Trying not to show my over smiled back.
"Oh. Good. Okay. So thanks and-"He paused when the bell rang for the last hour to start. He continued when the noise stopped."…and I guess I'll accompany you know to your next class."
I nodded, still smiling and we walked together, making small along the way about how we have been and what we have been up to since the last time we talked. He may just want to be friends but I still had hope that we could be something.
Bonnie :
When the bell rang, I was glad classes were over for the day. I walked out with Lucie. Then an idea came to mind while we walked to his locker.
"Lucie, what are you doing this Saturday?" I asked him.
"Ummm…nothing really. Why?"
"Well I thought maybe you'd like to go out to movies or something."
He seemed surprise by my invitation. "Are you doing what I think you're doing?"
We arrived at his locker and he opened it, putting the books he didn't need today for homework and closing it. I was thinking about what he was referring too. Then it hit me. I blushed. He chuckled.
"Well…I…umm…" I stammered.
He waved it off."I was kidding. Saturday would be awesome. Do you have a cell phone?"
"Yup. It's 745-849-2304."
"Got it. Thanks."
"So where are you guys going on Saturday?" a male voice asked behind Lucie. I remembered that voice too well. I looked into a pair of bottomless blue eyes. Damon.
