"Sit down there," Jason said. I sat down then leaned my head against the edge of the coffee table. Jacob looked pretty dizzy, but he had no bites. I had completely forgotten about him, I was more focused on myself. Jason nodded his head towards me.
Hamish sat on top of me as he made out with me while his hands were gently on my cheeks. I don't dare to fight him off even though this half feels good and the other half weird. These are vampires, so they would kill me easily. Hamish smiled and stared into my eyes after he parted.
"Did I rock your world?" He asked.
"Not really," I said nervously. Hamish looked crossed then sat back on his seat. Holly and Lily did the same but they frenched. I got disgusted quickly then pushed them away. Jason started clapping happily.
"I told you guys she would only be interested in me." Jason laughed. This was a test? That's kind of sick, but he has good intension's. "So, what are we going to do with him?" Jason looked at Jacob.
"You know what we have to do. Just do it." Hamish said annoyed. Jason slowly walked over to Jacob as Jacob panicked.
"No, no, I won't tell." Jacob was weak and not convincing. Jason picked up Jacob by the neck the made a clicking noise with both hands.
"I'm sorry I have to do this." Jason pulled me up by the hands.
"No, I promise I won't tell. Please, why would I tell? I love you Jason." I begged. Jason stared into my eyes.
"You don't mind that I kill people."
"It's who you are, you can't help that."
"Believe me he can." Holly rolled her eyes.
"What would you tell people?"
"It was self defense." Jason smiled.
"Oh come on, you can't possibly love him. It's all an act Jason. She'll try to run away. I can smell her lies." Holly glared in disgust at me.
"Easy,"Hamish held Holly back so she wouldn't lash out at me.
"You promise you won't tell?" I nodded.
"OK then, we'll be back on your birthday."
"Were watching you." Holly and Hamish went out the door.
"Goodbye Mystery," Jason began to leave.
"Wait," I didn't want him to leave. Jason stopped in his tracks then I gave him a passionate kiss that I hated to break away from as warm breaths flowed in my ears.
"Jason, let's go." Holly waited out by the door.
"Bye Mystery," Jason whispered.
"Bye Jason," I whispered back. Just like that they left. I had to cover up their tracks; first my bleeding neck and the fact that Jacobs dead. My neck was simple, I just had to fetch my purple and black fluffy scarf. If people noticed it they would think it was hickey, and I'd rather be embarrassed then to show my fang marks. Having no time to think of a plan my parents and Kora arrived noticing the door was wide open.
"Mystery, why is the door open?" Mum asked.
"I got really hot." I said.
"Why are you wearing a scarf then?" Dad asked.
"I'm guessing Jacob wasn't bored after all." Kora smiled.
"What the devil happened to the boy?" Dad noticed Jacob.
"He was all over me, I had to do something." I nervously shaked my hand that touched my scarf. Mum felt Jacob's stone-cold neck.
"He's dead," mum said with no emotion.
"I'm sorry." I ran into my room then began sobbing. This all hit me at once, Jacob was dead and I would have to take the blame even though Jason might not come back. Anyone else would try to stop them, but I didn't care at that moment.
The door forced backwards making me land on my toshie because I leaned against the door.
"What the hell happened?" Kora demanded an answer/
"I told you. He came onto me-" I started while standing.
"But you and I know what he's like on a date. Your suggesting that he was different with you?" I looked down guiltily.
"What's with the scarf?" Kora pulled off the scarf then gasped. "Are those..." I nodded.
"OK, cut the crap. Did they kill Jacob?" I nodded again. "How, there wasn't any blood." I made a clicking sound with my tongue. "Oh my Satan. Who was it?"
"I'm not telling you. I promised I wouldn't." But somehow I knew deep down she would find out before everyone else.
"Mystery I'm the only person you can trust."
"Oh, sure, I could trust you when I called you." I said sarcastically.
"Sis, that's what I do. I'm sorry, but you have to tell me or I'll guess and most likely get it anyway."
"He was Jason."
"I know him, yeah yeah, he goes to my school. His clan is really weird. They spread out on the hallway. Looked at people like they were their meals. They're total dicks."
"He goes to your school?"
"Yeah, I've been wondering why they've been staring at me and asking all sorts of questions about you. I just figured they were really weird people."
"What about Jason?"
"Do you like him?" I smiled.
"I think I love him."
"OK, stop right there sis. You don't know him, I do. Don't fall for him. He's a jerk, OK. I'm not just saying that."
"You don't understand. He kissed me."
"Just because he kissed you does not mean he loves you."
"Why am I still alive then?"
"Because he's... I actually don't know."
During the night my mind made me act as if I were a vampire. My attacks were against random people walking in the streets, then it was some pretty boys at school. The last person I attacked before panicking in the middle of the night with clod sweat was Kora for knowing my secret.
As walked in school I thought everyone would treat me differently if they heard what happened last night. But it seemed as if no one knew or thought that it was a big deal. It was just another murder to everyone, and I was still a ghost.
In English I got distracted easily while Miss Baseline wrote a sentence about vampires. 'Every vampire is evil'.
"But Miss, what about the twilight vampires?" One of the girl questioned.
"Please don't get sucked into that, they are nothing more than serial killers. Mystery, what would you do if a vampire attacked you during the night?" Everyone turned to look at me. This was a shook for me too seeing as she's never talked to me.
"I don't know, run away." I said, that was the first thing I did.
"Ah, but you can't run. They are ten times more faster and stronger. What would you do Lily?" I panicked because I recognized that name. Maybe Lily switched schools to spy on me or say she was a student, but it wasn't her, it was just another member of the class.
"Check if he's cute. If he is I would totally go out with him. If he's ugly I would stick a wooden weapon down his throat." Lily said.
"I see, well remember everyone the face is just a mask."
"Unless they have a rocking body!" The whole class laughed at the joke.
"The body is a- oh yes the body's real." I sighed and thought about Jason. I wish that I could've joined him. Now I have to wait four months to see him. How did I know if I was going to see him? I didn't exactly tell him what day it was.
"Hey Mystery, you did us a favour with Jacob." Lily said.
"I thought he was boring?" Miss Baseline said confused.
"Yeah, that's why he's dead."
"But boring people don't try it on with interesting people do they?" Did I just get called interesting? Miss Baseline was smarter than any other teacher in this school. She would spend her nights reading mystery books.
"Yeah, that is strange." Everyone looked at me weirdly. I melted on the spot, I couldn't defend myself in anyway. Just then someone knocked on the door, it was a policeman.
"May I speak with Mystery please?" The policeman asked politely. The whole class made the 'oh' sound like lame primary kids. All this time it hadn't mattered to me that they did that at little things like not having your homework. But this time it irritated me. I stood without the teacher asking me then followed the policeman. I played with my blue highlights mixed with my black hair in the back of the police car.
The police put me in one of those questioning rooms. I was the number one suspect, all I had to say was how he was killed like when a knife cuts you- not the Jason bit. All I had to do was act sad because I didn't know how to feel. I used my lack of helpfulness on my sad face.
"So, I hear your the fittest of the class." He said.
"Yeah well they don't do as much exercise. They're all pretty lazy." I say.
"I see, it says here that Jacob was a boring person to go out with. What exactly happened that night?"
"Well, we were watching the notebook. I went for my first kiss and things got out of control." I'm not exactly lieing.
"How exactly did you kill him?"
"I bashed him on the head with the popcorn bowl."
"Really?! 'Cause it says here his neck was snapped." Oh crap, I didn't think they could do that.
"I did that afterwards."
"That's strange how a boring person can get that cozy with one person. Cut the crap Mystery, you and I both know that's not what really happened. I have liars come in here everyday. Tell me what really happened!" He shot up from his seat and leaned over the table peering down at me. I couldn't tell him what happened, I just couldn't. "Mystery, I know your a good person," he calmed down. "So do the right thing and tell me."
"I told you what happened. It was self-defense." He frowned in disappointment.
"I want to show you something."
Jacobs mother was standing near a policeman's desk while bawling her eyes out. I knew that I had to keep the secret, but she reminded me of myself when I cry. This was going to be really hard, I might not even close my eyes tonight.
"Hello ma'm, this is Mystery. She's one of the suspects." The policeman announced.
"Oh, I don't understand any of this. He was so gentle and awkward." Jacob's mum said.
"'Yes well ma'm we will try our best to find the killer."
"Wait, does this mean she's not the killer?"
"No ma'm, I have suspected someone else has- done this."
"But she knows who did kill him."
"Yes ma'm, but she is too scared to tell us."
"Why would you do that? He's my son. He deserves some justice. How do you sleep at night? I bet you didn't do anything about it." I looked down guiltily. "Oh my, you didn't do anything." She putted her hands on her head. "What the hell's wrong with you?" I wanted to say that I was sorry, but that would mean that I admitted to doing it, or the police would take it the wrong way. This means I have two types of people spying on me.
"I'm sorry, I have to take her back to school." The policeman putted his hand on my shoulder as we walked.
"Yeah, then she can get some brains!" She yelled. This is just what the police want, to make me feel guilty so I'll tell them.
Suddenly I saw Kora waiting for me just beside a policeman's desk, with that the policeman left us to talk.
"Hi, they just asked me questions. What did you say?" Kora asked so I told her. "Are you crazy? He committed murder!"
"Shh," I said for her to keep her voice down.
"Look, the way I see it he took advantage of you then left you to clean up his mess."
"But what if I did tell?"
"He's a phyco, I don't know, probably come after you."
"That's another reason why I'm not telling."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love him, blah, blah, blah. Seriously, you can't fall for someone in like two hours."
"I did."
"Mystery, you need to tell."
"If I knew you were going to carry on I wouldn't have told you."
"Yes you would have anyway."
"You just don't understand. You never understand."
"I understand that I'm not rating out on you. That's up to you."
"Thank you."
"Yeah whatever, at least I won't have to live with it for the rest of my life." Kora walked off to her school.
"Wait, was he there?" I yelled but it was too late. Instead Kora texted me; 'yes and I told him off'. I was mad and worried at the same time. Now Kora could be in danger, or I could be for telling. I was more mad, she should have left him alone.
As I was about a metre away from my house I found myself being forced onto my blue fence and looking into the brown eyes of Hamish.
