I walked downstairs and entered the kitchen where Aunt Sam was talking to Ethan and Sarah "Hey guys, what's up?" I asked sitting next to Ethan "I'm babysitting the tornado twins" he said sighing "What? Oh no" I groaned "Don't worry Bailey everything'll be fine. Just call me if you smell smoke" Aunt Sam said slightly nervous, the doorbell rang and Aunt Sam left the room
"So I have to babysit you while you babysit two 9 year olds?" Sarah asked amused, Ethan nodded "Seriously how bad could they be?" she asked "Imagine a giant piranha that walks on land, now give it rabies and a brother. I'd rather babysit the piranha's" Ethan replied, Aunt Sam walked in with her friend along with the tornado twins
"Ethan you remember the twins? Their being so nice and quiet" her friend said, the boys walked into the dining room and sat at the table "Their up to something I know it, so let's go shall we before they yah know" she said taking Aunt Sam's arm and pulling her towards the door "Ooh kids drawing, real scary where should we hide?" Sarah asked mockingly
"I'm keeping this at the ready" Ethan said holding a soft dart gun "This is really weird, I usually have to hide upstairs when those boys come over. They came here last night and nearly trashed the house, they were only here for 10 minutes" I exclaimed watching the unusually quiet twins "Their so quiet" Sarah said "Too quiet, I bet their drawing up a plan to destroy us. Devising a sinister trap that at any second's gonna get us. Just wait for it...wait for it" Ethan said warningly
"Benny!" someone shouted right next to me, I acted on instinct and punched the person behind me "Sorry Benny" I said sheepishly as he clutched his stomach "Booyah" Rory exclaimed popping up behind the counter, Ethan shot him withe the gun and a toy dart stuck to Rory's forhead "Hey. Is this for me barfing down your chimney?" he asked, I rolled my eyes and turned to Benny "I'm so sorry" I said giggling nervously, he shook his head "It's fine Bail's. I should've known not to sneak up on a vampire" he said more to himself,
I smiled and ran my fingers up under his shirt until I reached where I hit him "Your sure?" I asked, he looked as though he was struggling with something "Mhmm" he said biting his lip rather hard, I giggled and pulled my hand out "Anyway I'm here to help battle the tornado twins" Rory said "Yeah me too are they here yet? I don't see anybody bleeding" Benny said looking around
"See for yourself. Hey boys this is Benny and Rory" Ethan said, the boys looked up at us "Hello Benny and Rory" they said at the same time before going back to their drawing "Wow. That is a tornado of weird" Rory said with wide eyes "Okay kids speaking in unison that's never good" Benny said facing us, there was a loud knocking behind us and we all jumped while spinning around "Are we going or what? I'm starving" Erica said annoyed "Coming Erica" Sarah said relieved "Wait going where?" Ethan asked nervously
"New rule from the council, they want us to hunt in pairs" Sarah said pulling on her bag "So I have to watch this vegetarian vampire pick up her blood salad from a delivery truck" Erica said "Beats watching you choose your meal..he's too stringy, he's too old, I hate her outfit" Sarah said mocking Erica "People with bad taste taste bad" Erica said in a duh tone "Anyway more stock less talk" she said inpatiently "Your supposed to be my backup, you can't leave me alone with them" Ethan said glancing at the twins
"What are you afraid their gonna color outside the lines?" Erica asked, Benny chuckled "I won't be long. And if you need backup I'm sure Jane can handle it. Right Jane?" Sarah asked "You betcha" Jane replied salutting "Sides you have Bailey too, later guys" Sarah said before leaving with Erica "Actually guys I have to go too, I haven't eaten since Tuesday so" I shrugged and grabbed my small satchel that held my nurse stuff
"I thought you have to hunt in pairs?" Ethan asked, I nodded "We do, there's this guy on the council I made friends with and he volunteered to be with me. He should be here soon actually" I replied, they all glanced at each other nervously "So who is this mystery guy?" Benny asked hesitatingly "His names Jake and he is so nice, sure he enjoys being a vampire and everything but he's a really nice guy" I explained,
Benny nodded slowly and the doorbell rang "That's him, bye guys" I waved while walking down the hallway "Jake" I smiled once I pulled open the door (Image of Jake is on my profile), he nodded "Hey Bailey, you ready?" he asked, I nodded and turned around to see the boys watching me "Later" I said closing the door behind me, we started walking down the street and I sighed
"Look, you don't have to stick around and wait for me to take blood from some guy. You can go eat your way if you want" I said, he shoved his hands into his front pockets and shrugged "I don't mind, sides chances are the council will kill me for leaving you alone" he said, I nodded in understanding "They still don't trust me huh?" I asked, he shook his head
"Not really. They think you'll go rogue vampire on us" he admitted, I laughed "I have a little more self control than' that. Besides they just don't like me because I won't show up to meeting unless I'm forced too and I won't bite people" I exclaimed, he chuckled "Fair enough. So why don't you bite people again?" he asked, I sighed
"When I was a fledgling a stronger vampire put me in a trance and forced me to drain my boyfriend. I stopped before I could kill him but I can't bring myself to bite anyone" I admitted shrugging "Yikes, anyway have you seen any people?" he asked as he stopped walking, I looked around the street and shook my head
"No actually, where are all the adults?" I asked confused "Maybe we should go further into town" he suggested, I nodded and smiled playfully "Race you" I said, apparently it was normal for the young vampires to be more playfull with other vamps, I was like it with Rory and Jake didn't seem to mind either "Alright, but I'm a lot older than' you" he said warningly,
I rolled my eyes "Your only 19" I said, he shrugged "I've been a vampire for a while Bailey" he said smirking, I smiled "Fine, but I'm still gonna race you" I said before speeding away.
