Disclaimer: I do not own the Little Vampire...I only wish.

Uh..strong profanity and insults a bit here.

Enjoy!

Chapter 5: Ladies and Gentlemen

"YOU BASTARD, SHUT UP!" I heard Gregory bellowed, getting up and throwing a jaw-breaking punch right across Cedric's mouth.

"Gregory!" I heard the father scold.

Cedric staggered back from the blow, holding his chin. Growling, he ran full speed at Gregory. He grabbed his trench coat collar and started beating him helplessly onto the ground. Everyone was screaming and trying to stop the rage between the two vampiric males.

"You dare, try to hurt her again and I'll-" Cedric's threat was cut off when Gregory drew his fist back and gave Cedric a throbbing whack at the eye. Never have I thought, would Vampires earn such a terrifying bruise.

"You'll what? I'm starting to think you have feelings for the twit!" Gregory taunted, me slightly insulted by his comment. They are now circling eachother, crouched down and their sharp teeth bare like a feral animal, hissing and snarling at eachother.

"She is not a twit you stupid beast! She is a living creature who deserves so much better than this!" I heard Cedric retort and pointed a finger at me. "And maybe I do have feelings for her!"

The family gasped during their prys of Gregory and Cedric. Me and Tony were taken aback, my breath hitching. Me? Seriously? After that last sentence, God forbid me, Gregory growled ever so menacingly. Why? He didn't need to be interfered with my love life, even if it's with that glorious Vampire he's brawling with right now.

"Fuck. You." Gregory gave one more knee kick into Cedric's gut before his father finally pulled him out of the mess. His mullet hair was tousled and a small bruise was on the corner of his mouth.

Cedric tried lunging at him, but the young girl with blonde hair, and the mother blocked his way. "You incompetent animal."

"ENOUGH!" I screamed, everyone's head snapping at me. I ran a hand through my hair and sighed, trying to regain my normal heart rate speed.

"Both of you two, calm yourselves and act like proper gentlemen." The mother said soothingly, letting Cedric go. As soon as Cedric was out of her grasp, he jumped into the air and transformed into a bat, flying off somewhere. Gregory shrugged his father off and walked over to the entrance where I came out of from the tomb or crypt.

"Are you alright, child?" The father asked me and I nodded, getting off of the ground. "I am Fredrick, mi'lady."

"Sawyer. Sawyer Thompson."

"And I am Freda. It is a pleasure to meet such a beautiful young lady." She complimented and I chuckled nervously. What the Hell is up with all these Vampires thinking I am actually beautiful? Must be from their time era.

"Oh, thank you...Freda...Fredrick." I nodded at them, the little blonde girl skipping up.

"I am Anna, pleasure to meet you also, Miss Sawyer." She curtsied before I exchanged the same lady-like action.

"The pleasure is all mine, Miss Anna."

She giggled, giving me a good look-over. "Aren't you quite a doll?"

"Hahaha, I guess you can say that." I laughed, relieved that she didn't call me beautiful like the others.

"Your friend Heather is a beauty! As is your little cousin, Tony, very handsome indeed." She whispered in my ear. If she could blush right now, I'm sure she would. I had a feeling this girl has a small crush on the kiddo. Oooh..Rudolph with Heather, Tony with Anna, and me with...Cedric! Seems good to me.

"Yes, both of them are truly wonderful." I smiled at her and she nodded frantically.

Cutting off the introductions, the sound of machinary starting up, hit my ears. There, at the gate of the cemetery, a man who oddly appeared like some motorcycle rider with the leather jacket, and piercings crap, stood there. He had a gun propped onto his shoulder that was unusually large. The nose had a bigger bullet size..the size of a...stake! Oh...not good.

"Rookery!" Fredrick shouted, looking at the remaining Sackville-Baggs. "Go! Take the family! Hurry!"

Freda and the two children crowded into the crypt as Fredrick raised his arms up. Then, I felt as if two things were missing..."Tony! Heather!"

Shitting cows, where did they go? Tony is so grounded! Heather...uh..I don't know, but punishment is required! Rookery soon started stomping over to Fredrick, gun raised and ready to shoot. Gotta do something! I glanced down and saw a good looking, light-weight rock. Picking it up, I drew my arm back and threw the mineral as hard as I can at Rookery's face. Damn! I got good aim! The rock collided straight onto his nose. He yelled, cringing back and caressing the now bloody nostrils. His eyes locked onto mine and I shrugged sheepishly.

"You!" He dabbed his forefinger at me.

"Uhh...yah?" I asked in a snobbish tone. He growled when he realized I was mocking him. He pulled his gun out and directed it at me. Jesus, I'd rather take the tiny bullet than this shit! Pulling the trigger, the stake only came out with a farting sound and dropped to the ground about a good 2 inches away from the nose. Gazing over the side, I saw Tony and Heather standing there vulnerably with the gun chords in their hands.

"I'll get you two later." Rookery growled at them, continuing to prey on me. I jerked my head to the side at the two kids, signaling them to get out the fucking scenario! They hestantly followed my orders and ran up the hill which had the hole I fell through earlier. Oh wait- no! To late, they already fell through the squarish escape with a scream.

Fredrick also left the scene, so now, it's my turn. Getting myself ready as he was just a foot away from me, he pulled a sort of bright, UV light cross. Angling just right, I kneed him right in the place where mommys won't help you out with. Clutching down to grasp himself and the UV cross dropping onto the floor, he yelped and gave me a chance to run away. Sprinting over to the hole, I had trouble trying to find it again from all the grass and dead flowers surrounding them.

"Where are you?" I frustratingly groaned, stepping back and not feeling solid ground below my foot. Deja vu. "Woah!"

Instead of the deadly concrete I was suppose to be punished with from my back, I felt something soft, cold and...fleshy. "What the Hell! Get off you ugly mortal!"

I gasped once I noticed the voice only belonged to one malicious Vampire. A pair of hands shoved me off of the body, my legs reflexively bringing me up to my feet. Gregory was getting up and dusting himself off. Holy shit. Up close, he looked...hot. Ugh! Shut up, Saws! He's not what you want! Not what you want! He stared at me, the red eyes burning through my head. I sneered at him and crossed my arms, "What're you staring at?"

"How a creature is so undescribably unattractive to be alive on this planet." He hissed and I could feel tears pricking my lower eyelid.

"Shut the fuck up. It's not like your oh-so handsome either!" I responded with more venom in my tone. His eyebrows narrowed, and he was right in front of me in a second.

"Watch your tongue ugly duckling. I won't hesitate to kill you right this second." He warned me and I bit my lip as the cool air of his breath fanned over my face. Astounded as he was, I pushed him away from me.

"Leave me alone. I never wanted anything to do with this. Your dear brother flew into our house, we helped him, and now, he's my little cousin's best friend! You expect me to go back in time and change that shit?" I shouted at him and full anger charged into me.

"Vampire's don't need best friends. Especially from mortals." He seethed at me, turning away.

I wasn't done with him yet.

"You're such a sick bastard! Don't act like you weren't human before all this bloodsucking crap happened! Because we all know you were! And everyone needs a friend! I could see why no one would want to be yours now! Because you are a monster!" I glared at his frozen body's head. Turning swiftly on his heel his eyes pierced right into mine.

"Damn you. You dare have the right to talk to me in that way? You don't know what I've been through the last 300 years! I don't care about what you fucking say to me. You think that will change me? Not in Hell it will!" He suddenly grabbed my shoulders and shook me violently.

I glowered up at him with such hatred. "I do have the right to talk to you that way! You aren't my father! First of all, you tried to kill me yesterday and today, you yell at me for no apparent reason, and blame me for all of your shitting problems! Fyi!"

"So what? I am above you! Meaning, your life is in my hands. You're my puppet on strings." He smirked deviously. I scoffed, swapping his arms away from my shoulders.

"The nerve of you saying that. So..burning by freaking light is above me? Getting a whiff of garlic and brutally being consumed by symtoms is above me? B-"

"Shut up!" He started losing his temper. The others came running in from the loud conflictive argument me and Gregory were having.

"What is going on?" Fredrick stood beside me and Gregory's heated bodies.

"Your son! That's what in bloody Hell is going on!" I accused and Gregory snarled.

"You bitch."

"Gregory!" Freda called out in disbelief.

"Asshole." I chipped back at him. The kids all were worried and trying so hard not to listen.

"Both of you, quiet! There are children here and you two are the eldest. Meaning, they look up to you! We parents did not raise such bad-mannered ladies and men." Fredrick exclaimed at us.

I took a deep breath, me and Gregory's glares never leaving place. Ending the fight, I turned to Tony. I pinched the bridge of my nose and closed my eyes shut, "What'd I miss?"

"Well we found out, about the coat of arms." Tony rubbed the back of his head.

"Yeah, and it seems someone named..'Vaughn' and this lady met here in Scotland. The lady had a sort of blanket with a crest on it." Heather spoke up to me.

"So?"

"We think that the lady may have the stone with her, or maybe in her grave. But we need to find which family she belongs to by her crest." I heard Rudolph come up beside me with the explanation.

"Ahh..." I understood, hearing a snicker.

"Dumb human." I heard the snicker cause insult. Let it go...let it fucking go. He isn't worth it. Sneaking a dirty glance at Gregory, I smiled when Anna smacked him on the back of the head. "Ow! You stupid runt!"

"Stop describing yourself." I said to him monotonously.

"You idiot whore." He shook his head disgutingly. His parents gave him a look as if they were about to pop his head off.

Rolling my eyes, I turned back to the kids, Tony chirping up first, "We're gonna help them!"

"What the- NO! Absolutely not!...with that stupid goth Vampire in the way!" I obliged and Gregory ran up beside me at a rushing speed.

"I'm part of this family. Nothing you could do about it, you harlot." He informed me, shouldering me.

I grunted as the impact actually hurt. "Are you going to call me every fucking insulting name everytime when we talk?"

"We don't talk. We argue, female rat." He corrected me, lumbering away from the tomb. Just halfway through the threshold, Freda called him.

"Gregory! Be a gentleman and fly Sawyer home!" She said, snatching his arm and pulling him over to me.

"Not. In. This. Damn. Lifetime." He started to leave again. His father gripped his shoulder, and turned him back around.

"Yes. In this lifetime, young man."

"Oh how lovely! A romantic flight in the moonlight art thou thee!" Anna clapped her hands eagerly and I reddened.

"You are nasty Anna. I would never fall for this...thing." Gregory shuddered, and pushed him out of my way to leave the crypt. I found my way out of the decaying home and my eyes fell upon Tony and Heather, who were already in the air, flying with Rudolph.

Stupid Gregory! He is so mean! Venting out my anger for him, I made my way into the dark woods and broke branches with my bare hands that fell from the trees. "Ugh! What a douche bag!"

"Your modern insults are amusing, mi'lady." My body flew around and saw Cedric leaning on a tree. Oh. Thank. God.

"Cedric...hey."

"Hello." He said kindly, and took my hand, brushing his lips over it. "I am sorry about what ha-"

"It's alright, he deserved it." I chuckled, then stayed silent after that.

"Yes he did." He agreed and his face suddenly formed angry. "He didn't even offer you to get a flight home?"

I shrugged and started taking a few steps, until strong arms wrapped around my waist and the ground below me began to dissipate. I giggled as me and Cedric flew over the thick woods.

"Thank you." I smiled adoringly at him over my shoulder.

"You're welcome, darling."

We were quiet through the whole trip and soon, we were on my balcony, the moon radiating the darkness that surrounds us. Hearing children laughing from a balcony below, I suggest that Rudolph was able to return Tony back home, and Heather to hers.

"Cedric?" I asked and he laced his fingers with mine. "Why is Gregory..."

"Rude? Vile? Horrifying?" He listed, me laughing at the gossiping humor.

"I was going to say like he is today." I pointed out, leaning on the balcony railing. I knew, from what Rudolph told me, but I wanted to know more about this hateful teenage Vampire. Not only that, but I should know more about my new ultimate mortal enemy.

"Let's..not talk about him right now." He suggested and I gave him a skeptic look.

"Then what do you want to talk about?" My voice went a pitch higher in suspiciousness.

"I...us..Miss Thompson, I was wondering if...you would like to court with me?" He had pleading eyes, and his expression was apprehensive.

"As in...go on a date?" I was unsure about this.

"Yes, that's what mortals these days call it. I was thinking...a fancy moonlight picnic? Hm?"

I took a deep breath and got on my tippy-toes to peck his smooth, cold cheek lightly. "I would be honored to go on a date with you, Cedric."

He chuckled sheepishly, backing away. "I'll see you tomorrow night then. Goodnight, love."

"Goodnight...Cedric."

After that, he flew off of the balcony and into the sky. My face was probably boiling hot right now. My legs shook as I walked into my room, and falling onto my bed on my back. This was those awkward moments you'd see in movies about teenage love. A girl dancing around in her room and crap.

"YES!" I screamed, fist pumping the air. I glanced at the clock and saw it was only 10 o'clock. Auntie Dottie came running through my door, frightful.

"Sawyer? What's going on?" She asked breathlessly.

I squealed, jumping up and taking her hands. "I got a date tomorrow!"

"Really? With who?" All of her worries switched in ecstatic squealing and hopping.

"His name is Cedric Harrison. He wants me to go on a moonlight picnic tomorrow with him!"

"Wow! Make sure me and your Uncle meet him! Oh, we gotta get you absolutely dolled-up for tomorrow night!" She started her rampage of comments.

"Woah, woah, woah, Auntie Dottie. It's only my first date with him and I'll make sure you meet him. He is a true gentleman." I sighed dreamily. She left the room after a few more planning.

Tony skipped in and raised an eyebrow at me. "So...Cedric huh?"

"Yeah..." I smiled warmly at him. He was in deep thought, and it was bothering. A-fucking-lot. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing!" He lied, trying to hide the fact something was up.

"Tony...tell me."

"Er...can I say it quick?" He laughed, scratching his head.

"Sure, bud." I accepted and he sucked a chunk of air in him.

"YouandGregoryshouldbetogether!" He stated at such a speed, even a Vampire wouldn't understand.

"What?"

"Oh, would you look at the time! Past my bed time! Buh-bye!" He nervously flung himself out of the room and ran off.

"T-Tony! Come back!" I called after him, but decided to let him go.

I did all my nightly routines and I was soon on the bed, my thoughts swirling with Cedric in it. The way he held my hand..was so, gentle. His lips brushing onto it sent tingles of pleasure up my arm. The spark I felt on my lips when I kissed him on the cheek. I sound like a lovestruck teen. Maybe I am. Late at night, as I was awake, my mind was filled of the future date we would have until I fell asleep.

That's when a certain rebelious bad boy took over my dreams for the night.

A/N: Wow...I dunno, do you guys like it? Let's hope ol' Gregory won't ruin their date tomorrow, aye? I know this is lame and shit, but are you part of Cedric's Army or Gregory's? No teams whatsoever.

Review-hoo!
