Valentine's day. A day for people to act like fools for the affections of someone they like or love. As soon as I thought that Vlad instantly popped into my head. Vlad. No I couldn't like Vlad, could I? I ran down to the dining table grabbed a piece of toast and left the castle with Vlad. We picked up Robin on the way and Vlad told Robin that his mom might be in trouble.

"Valentine's day brings out the worst of my dad." Vlad explained.

"Him and everyone else. It's a load of garbage if you ask me." Robin said.

"There's no way I'm falling for it." Vlad stated. I was about to say something when a girl stepped in front of us.

"Hey. It's my first day here could you show me to the office?" the girl asked and I watched as the boys smiled stupidly at her. Unbelievable. Just then there was a commotion over by Ingrid and the group of boys surrounding her. I went over and watched as a familiar face entered the group and resisted Ingrid. I know that guy. I ran through the crowd, pushed Ingrid out of the way and jump at the guy in a hug.

"Will!" I yelled and gained the attention of everyone including Robin and Vlad. Will hugged me back and began to spin me around before he placed me down.

"Hey, Vi." Will greeted me. Me and Will knew each other when we were younger and we were as thick as thieves, until he moved.

"Will, what are you doing here?" I asked him with a smile. Before he could answer I heard an angry Ingred behind me.

"What do you think you are doing, Vimka?" Ingrid snarled at me.

"Ah, I'm sorry did I take the attention away from you?" I asked with a fake sympathy. Before she could answer I lead Will away and asked him a whole bunch of questions. When it was lunch I was sitting with Robin and Vlad a they both were staring at the new girl.

"Right. Time to turn on the Dracula charm." Vlad began to stand but Robin threw a cup of milk into Vlads lap. Vlad left with his bag hiding the milk on his pant and Robin made his way to the new girl. What a bunch of idiots. Fight over the same girl. Especially Vlad. Wait? Was I jealous? The rest of the day I couldn't shake that thought from my head. I saw Will a few times throughout the day and I saw the look he gets when he begins to like someone. When it was time to head back to the castle, Vlad and I waited for Robin to show up but after waiting ten minute and no sign of him, we left. When we got to the castle Robin was there with the new girl pretending to live in the castle. Boys are such idiots. I walked past Ingrid's room and heard her on the phone I pick up a phone and decide to listen in.

"-if you're unable to achieve hypnosis-"

"Three" Ingrid said without waiting.

"Has this ever happen before?"

"No." Ingrid responded.

"Are you feeling stressed?"

"No." Ingrid became to get annoyed.

"Is the breather in question attractive?"

"Well sort of but I don't see how that relevant." Ingrid said as she avoided actually answering.

"I'm sorry, I did not understand your answer. Is the breather in question attractive?"

"Yes." Ingrid answered defected.

"Does the lighting flicker in their presence?"

"Yes." Ingrid answered.

"Duh, you're in love with a breather."

"What? I am not in love with a breather!" Ingrid yelled and I hung up the phone. I wonder who she is in love with. I finished up my assignments and waited until the next day when Valentine's day would be in full affect. When we headed to school Vlad walked right by Robin's house. We were almost at school when we saw Robin jogged with flowers towards the school.

"Robin." Vlad called out. I followed as I was curious.

"Oh, hey, Vlad. I can't stop, I'm-"Robin began before Vlad finished.

"Meeting your girlfriend."

"Yeah. Look, about pretending I lived in the castle-" Robin began to apologize.

"Ah, that. Don't worry. All's fair in love and war. Right?" Vlad said and I knew he was up to something.

"Exactly. So we're still friends?" Robin asked hopefully.

"Friends?" Vlad confirmed and they shook hands. Then Vlad used hypnosis to freeze Robin and steal the flowers. I followed Vlad.

"I can't believe you just used your powers on your friend just to get a girl." I told him angrily.

"but she's not just any girl-" Vlad began.

"I don't care, Vlad. I'll see you later." I told him as I interrupted him. I began to walk to class when I saw Will and Ingrid talking.

"I'm touched." Will said to Ingris.

"Touched? You're supposed to be scared witless." Ingrid tells him angrily.

"I'll see you at the ball later." Will tells her and she stops in her tracks.

"I thought you weren't going to the ball?" Ingrid asks him.

"Yeah, well. I changed my mind." Will replies and by now I was almost beside Will.

"Tough. The ball's canceled. Rat infestation." Ingrid responds as she dumps the box was the rats upside down and walks away. Will laughed as the students went screaming and gave Ingrid a look over.

"You know, Will. I think you fancy her. And I think she might fancy you." I tell him as a rat tries to run up my leg but I shake it off.

"Do you think?" Will asks with small hopefulness.

"Yep. And she is totally your type." I tell him with I smile as I tease him. I send the rest of the day with him as I tease him about fancying Ingrid and coming up with strategies for Ingrid's attentions. I found out the Valentine's ball was being held at the castle and Will convinced me to go in a dress. I regret it. I spent five minutes at the ball where I made sure no one saw me before I decided to go to Renfields lab. I was sitting there for maybe ten minutes before Rodin and Vlad come rushing in and locked the door. I could smell flowers, chocolate and love in the air and it was coming from those two. They used the counts love potion. Vlad began to mix things together and Robin and Vlad spreaded it their faces before a mob of girls knock the door down. When the girls left Robin and Vlad agreed to never fight over a girl again.

"Well, that certainly was entertaining." I say to gain their attentions. When they see me their jaws fall to the floor in shock. I just I did look pretty different.

"Woah." they both said at the same time as they stared at me. Before anyone could say anything else Van Helsing and Jonathan came rushing in wielding stakes.

"Where is she?" Van Helsing demanded. I decided to go back to the ball and when I got there I saw Ingrid and Will slow dancing together. They almost kissed when a speaker blew and everyone was ushered out. I stood next to Vlad and Robin as we watched Ingrid throw a tantrum.

"Well, I guess I got this dress for nothing." I say as I head to my room.
