Chapter 16
The room was deadly silent as I waited for someone to say something. Perhaps I shoulda kept it to myself. Chaotic doesn't really like vampire hunters and October is a descended from a vampire hunter. But apparently her grandma believed in peace between vampires and humans so there's still hope that I didn't ruin another relationship!
As if Chaotic was reading my mind—and he better not have- he gently kissed October on the cheek as to reinsure her. Awwie! "My grandma was talking about vampires a day before she died, but it was only towards me. 'Cause mom thought she was going crazy. Oh well, I'm happy with my life-" "This feels like a therapy secession—I'm just putting it out there, ya know?" I interrupt October without thinking. "Oh and you would know this, wouldn't you?" October snaps in my direction. "Oh, fuck you-" "I don't take offers-" "That's 'cause you don't get any!" I duck and cover as she flew from her seat like a tongue of lizard darts for an insect. If it weren't for her dad I would be dead by now.
"Now, now children; if you must kill each other, you have to take it outside. You know how your mother feels about blood stains in the carpet. You would think we would have enough furniture in this house," he shakes his head in a fake disappointed fashion as we chuckle. Of course it was a lie…I hope.
"Where're ya goin' dad?" October began in between giggles; he had on a heavy coat and was just putting on a ski mask. "I'm gonna put up the lights!" We, except Yuuki and Zero, gave a dramatic sigh. He was never the "handy man" as some would say. "It's too windy-" "Nonsense! Chaotic, I don't know when you guys put up your Christmas lights in Japan, but this has been a family tradition for decades…" "Is it also a tradition to break every bone in your body?" I snickered into October's ear, but he still heard it! Damnit! He begins to tell the story as if we really cared. .
"You're gonna fall, Mr. Millar…" I spoke in a creepy, raspy voice just as he reaches for the door handle. He shudders at the tone. He waved his hand, as to dismiss the warning that was jabbing at him in the back; saying 'nonsense' below his breath.
Five Minutes Later
….
He fell off the roof.
Gee, who would of saw that one coming?
We were in the kitchen when we heard a thump, some rolling sound, than a figure falling downward by the window. Everyone ran outside to see him flat out across the law. His left arm and leg were bending in a wrong way… I laughed so hard that tears were rolling down my cheeks; which cause October to push me to the cold dead grass before rushing over to her dad. There's just something in me, that when I see someone falling, I will laugh…hard. Just ask Sammy boi. He fell down the steps this summer and I laughed cause I thought he was doing the chicken dance on the way down. And then when I saw his broken wrist, my laughter became louder. Am I a sick person with a smile? Pretty much. Haha, nuff said.
Here, her dad just broke his left limbs. CAST SIGNING TIME BITCHES! I'm going to sign mine, "the girl who laughed at your pain." That has to get a few chuckles out of someone! I remain on the ground until I felt someone gently kick my ribs…how rude… It was the twins; they came over to see what happen.
"And you call me a sadist?!" Hayden accuses his brother, while thumping him at the back of his head. Aiden stuck out his tongue in a childish way before giving me a picnic basket. I gave them a suspicious look before falling in love at what I saw under the lid. Staring back at me was a black short haired kitty cat, with amber colored eyes. It reminds me of the kitty cat at Ciel's house!
"Her name's Onyx. We got her for you as an animal companion for Japan," they spoke in harmony (that wasn't creepy at all). But that didn't stop me from giving a death squeeze, "You two are the best twins in the world! I love you guys!" I pick up Onyx and skipped over to October; who quickly forgot about her father and screamed in jealousy. –Insert evil crackles here-
Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø
Leaving on Sunday evening wasn't that easy. I still wanted to spend more time with my besties, but we have to get back before the others do—though I don't see why they can't wait outside the academy. -_-
Chaotic and October had to stay longer (or so they say) because of her dad. Every time I laugh at him, I get hit with a foreign object. Do you know how painful a glass bottle is? I sure do! But when I get back to the dormitory, I can do whatever I want without hearing "Cassie!" or "don't say/do that!" I'M FINALLY FREE!
Sammy boi and I had a hug fight; we hug until one goes numb. I love numbness. Hayden was making snide comments about us hugging though. My excuse is that he's my 2nd husband…how lame.
The others I just made quick hugs, but made Aiden Arthur's longer mostly to flip off his fucking girlfriend. Which she greatly return but he saw it…sucker!
Scarlett and Aito are staying few days longer because they're assholes _ evil… They get to spend time with the band and I have to leave! It's not fair! I hardly got to spend time with Tyler!
Anyways— Onyx, twins, Zero, Yuuki, Chairman dude, and I are waiting for Uncle Sam to take off. Onyx hates her pet carrier! Sticking her little paw as to call someone over to lead her to freedom! Aiden just took pictures, and then went all gushy over it with Yuuki. Hayden obviously finds his voice aggravating so he's aiming this 'Sorry' board game at his head. Yuuki keeps on giggling because Aiden kept looking back at us only to see nothing. This is going to be a long trip.
Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø
Okay, Uncle Sam had to stop for gas and I decided to call Ichijou to tell him about Chaotic's and October's absence. Only for Hayden to grab my phone and scream into the receiver, "In my country, they advertise dildos on TV!" then ended the call. THAT'S WHAT HE SAID TO ICHIJOU! That poor, poor vampy!
"HAYDEN MICHAEL ANDERSON! How dare you say that to Ichijou?!" "You gave him your number-" "What kind of name is Ichijou-" "That's his last name…" "It sounds like 'itch-my-Joe!'" Hayden puts his hand on his crotch while the other hand is covering his fake shock face. I DON'T KNOW HIM, I SWEAR! "You named it Joe too!?" Aiden exclaims excitedly. I am so appalled. The Chairman dude and Yuuki didn't look like they knew what they were talking about. Let's keep it that way. But Zero's laughing… pervert. "Okay, I'm even one step closer to becoming a lesbian after this." Hayden chuckles at my response before kidnapping me into the bathroom.
Following washing his hands, he forces my mouth open. What the bloody hell?! He holds out a packet of fake vampire teeth, I smile in return. After a few minutes, I had vampire teeth. Suddenly the memory of that Ducky dude flashes through my mind; I shuddered at the thought. In a flash, I bit into Hayden's shoulder. Then race back to my seat for the plane was taking off. Which Hayden fell victim to. Huzzah!
Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø
"We will have to come visit-" "NO, YOU WILL STAY CALIFORNIA!" I shouted while we were in line for a cappuccino (Aiden) and a milkshake (me). We're in Seattle and only Caleb was here to pick up the twins…I really wanted to see Luna though… As I gave our order to the cashier, she happens to catch a glimpse at my fangs and went crazy!
"Oh! This just proves that like not all girls are Twilight fan girls and like real vampires have fangs! Thank you for like, coming here, like I was about to lose my sanity." Personally I think she already lost it. Now most people would run away from her—she looks about 26 years old—but we just made this o.o face and hope that we'll get our drinks. Then we'll run away!
"Umm…yeah but these are just-" "Like, today, a whole bunch of fan girls came here, like talkin' about Twilight and edward cullen – like oh em gee, barf…" she's a talker, doesn't she have friends of her own age? "Since you guys like made my day, your beverages are on the house! Have like, a nice day!" she then skips back to the kitchen. We exchange looks before dashing back to the others. She used too many "likes"!
Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø
Do you know how difficult it is when you have weapons on and you need to get through the gates? VERY DIFFICULT! =.=" Took a half an hour! Then we had to get Onyx through the thingy as well… never again.
We went to our first class seats; the Chairman dude, Yuuki, and Zero was behind me while I sat by the isle. There was this Japanese dude with black choppy hair and bangs covering his left eye. His hair looks so fluffy! Ohh the temptations! He was wearing a black & white checkered hoodie with a black Emarosa band tee underneath. Along with some black skinnies. He was also bobbing his head to some music with his eyes close, but I saw eyeliner...my type of dude, of course! Looks about 16 or 17 and there's an older guy next to him; most likely an older brother. :P
Smiling in delight, I made a paper wad and threw it at him, hitting him square in the face. His brother or whoever bursts out laughing. I don't know why I did this, but I just wanted to talk to him! He's adorable! Behind me I could see Zero and Yuuki facepalming. The dude looks around for the source of this paper wad attack before his bright grey—no that's an understatement– before his silver orbs came into contact with my boring shitty brown eyes.
I gave a cheerful smile in return, "What's your favorite song?" He gives me a weird look as he cocks his head to the side like a confused puppy. I point at his shirt in a bored manner. He looks down and finally realizes what I'm getting at, by blushing in embarrassment. Ohhh a shy guy! (A/N: I'm not even going to bother trying to translate the sentence so the words in bold after this is what he is saying in Japanese.) "Oh...um...uhhh... [I can not speak English!]" Now it was my turn to wear the weird look. Behind me, Zero sighs, "He says he can't speak English, moron." -eye twitch- "Thank you, jackass!" I gave him the stink eye, in return, he kick my seat. Only for the Brunette flight attendant to catch in him in the act. HAHAHA!
"No kicking seats!" this made me snort, "And no leaning over the seats! Sit up straight... stupid teenagers!" she mumbles as she walks away. Well isn't she lovely? So I called her out the only way that would offend any middle age bitch. "Hey Zero! Did you see all the GREY HAIRS she had?" I asked obnoxiously. I whip out Nanoie just to see her reaction on the black screen. She was checking her roots... can you say self-conscious? "She's probably 60-" now she's running back with steam flowing out of her ears. "I'll have you know-" "That it's about time to change your tampon?" I asked innocently, while flashing my fangs. She turns on her heels at this. Looks a little pale...oh well! xD
I look back at the Emarosa dude just as he said something to his brother that made him laugh. "He says he thinks you're hot!" The dude's eyes became wide and then he smacked his bro across the head, "[I did not, idiot!]" His brother's laughter becomes louder. O.O "[Shut the fuck up!]" The dude ways his arms around like he was trying to land a plane. "[Don't listen to him!]" All I can do is turn my head to the side. I have no idea what he's saying. The dude let's out a sigh of frustration and slams his head back against the seat, "[Now she's going to think I'm a freak!]" I giggle at his pout and threw another paper wad at him as the plane took off.
As we were leveled in the air, I changed my seats so I could sit next to him and closer to Zero–just to piss him off of course! "Gomenasai about the paper wads. But I know how it feels when you say one thing and the other person messes with it. Can you write in English?" He nods, so I give him my notebook. This is going to be an interesting trip.
Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø
We have an half before touch down in Tokyo and I have a new best friend! The dude's name is Kouhel {means peace and calm I think}; he just turned 16 this week, blood type O, and goes to Ourin Public High School. It often gets confused with Ouran, I know four people from the Anderson Family that goes to Ouran Academy (one's in elementary).
Kouhel has the same taste in music as me. :D! For the past hour we've been listening to each other's music. I now love The Gazette and he loves You Me At Six. At one point I started to sing but the stupid flight attendant stop me.
"Dude, we should hang out this weekend! I mean, I'm grounded but I think if I behave this week I can go into town on Saturday. Or is it too far away, since it's two hours away from Tokyo?" He writes down "maybe :)" and his brother snickers at us. "You two hooking up?" He's not mature. "Wow, you're a pervert." I stuck out my tongue while pulling down my bottom eyelid. "Oi, I wasn't thinking in that way." We gave him a look that says otherwise.
"Oh Chairman dude, when we get back can I have a bucket?" I lean forward with a cheesy smile, "I wanna play a prank on Aidou-chan. I'll clean up the mess, pinky swear!" He shakes his head with a smile. "But I have to get my revenge-" "Life isn't all about revenge, Cassie." That hit me like a brick. Of course I knew that. But...I guess... it's kinda fun. "But it makes me happy..." I whisper causing Zero shot me a weird look. I suddenly felt a tap on my shoulder; Kouhel's paper read that we should buckle up soon so I told the others. But before we landed, I exchanged numbers with him. The airport's huge; we might not see each other after we leave the plane.
Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø
Being back at the Moon Dormitory was very welcoming, but lonesome. Sure, I spent time with the maid and the no-face cloak people (I was tempted to pull the hoods down!), then I chase Onyx around with my cat ears…don't ask; but still lonely. I transform my walk-in-closet to a room for Onyx. All I need is some more cat food, toys, kitty litter, catnip, and maybe one of those climbing things. Or I can get cardboard boxes and build my own climbing jungle! I shall do that Tuesday! Hopefully, the Chairman dude will let me go to town, instead of paperwork. That's my punishment.
Walking downstairs, with Onyx in my arms, I was dressed differently than usual. Instead of skinnies, I had my rainbow socks that go up to mid thigh, with purple lace garters; also had on some bootie shorts and a purple mesh tutu. The tutu covers up the shorts thank god! They weren't even mine! I think they belong to Luna because she was the one packing my clothes in Seattle…that creeper. And my shirt was an old oversize black Mardi Gras T-shirt that went over my butt so I don't feel over expose. The reason behind these clothes was that I was washing my other ones and it's really hot in the building. Where's Aidou when you need him?!
I have to stay up because I have to check each of the vampys in, oh joy! But that's around 4 in the morning. A little nap won't hurt, right? Curling up on the couch, Onyx made a bed behind my head, in my hair… stinky feet~
****Third P.O.V.****
When the Grandfather clock struck 4, the front doors opened to reveal the noble vampires with Kaname Kuran leading them. Hanabusa Aidou was the first one to enter.
"Ichijou was the one who brought it up! So he should—hello what's this?" he stops in mid-sentence as everyone turn their attention to a sleeping cat eared Cassie. They haven't noticed the cat yet. "A midnight snack, perhaps?" Hanabusa licks his fangs while his eyes glows a dazzling crimson. While brushing a hand through his hair, a forewarning sigh escapes Akatsuki Kain's lips, "Hanabusa…" And an obnoxious snort comes from behind the two cousins; Ruka Souen was standing there in all her glory. "Don't waste you're breath on her, she's merely a mortal," a coy smile was placed on those lips as she flip her hair over her shoulders. Another sigh slipped through Akatsuki's lips just as he was about to say something, Hanabusa quickly interrupts. "A mortal who's wearing short shorts, DAYAM!" he gives a cat call as he tries to see under the tutu. Kaname soon disciplines him.
Takuma Ichijou was the first one to approach the girl. A wide smile whisked across his features. He just spotted the kitten. Swiftly taking out his phone, he takes a quick picture of his younger human friend. "Ichijou-san, what are you doing?" the young model, Senri Shiki, spoke to the grinning blonde with Rima Toya by his side. Senri follows Ichijou's gaze and spots the kitten as well. Taking a few steps closer, he brought a pocky stick to his mouth before leaning down to see if the cat was real. This was a bad choice. In a split second, a hand was wrapped around his throat.
****Back to Regular P.O.V.****
I open my eyes to see my hand gripping Shiki's throat. I instantly let go with a whimper. Pushing myself away from him, I began apologizing with my voice becoming a few octaves higher with each sorry. That caused Onyx to wake up and stretched, which pushed my head forward. I open my mouth for the pocky stick to slip in along with a flushed face. THIS IS TOO CLOSE! When we were an inch away from touching noses, I broke off the stick, flew from the couch, and out the dormitory. I can still hear Ichijou and Aidou laughing their asses off. I didn't stop until I reached the entrance of Cross Academy.
The cold bars against my dark scarlet cheeks weren't enough to calm me down. I began to hyperventilate. I've been close to guy's faces before but that was out of anger or teasing. This caught me off guard. It was so close, that I could even smell the cologne he was wearing with a hint of chocolate. Even though he kept up with his emotionless phase, there was shock written across his blue dusky eyes.
I sank to the ground with my back against the gate. As I look up towards the night sky, I could faintly see my breath. It was cold outside but that wasn't a problem. The problem was that I was starting to fall for an apathetic model... Oh and he's a vampire! LET THE AWKWARDNESS BEGIN!
Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø
After re-entering the dormitory, I brought Onyx back upstairs and got ready for bed. I just got done showering and was about to grab my shirt when I heard footsteps. Now Shiki's/Ichijou's and October's/ Chaotic's doors are at least 7 feet away from mine. But this was right behind the door. Crap! I race towards my bed, grab my shirt, then the door open. I mean, sure, I had my pj bottoms on and bra, but that doesn't mean I want people to see my body! Shiki was standing with the deer-stuck-in-the-headlights look and a blush was crawling across his cheeks.
Why is he blushing? Isn't he a model? Don't models wear swimming suits at times? He shouldn't be blushing—why the hell is he still here?! IS IT "HUMILIATE CASSIE DAY" TODAY?! CAUSE I DIDN'T GET THE FUCKIN MEMO! "Get the fuck out!" was the first thing out of my mouth. He was gone before you could say snickerdoodle! I groan in frustration; I didn't imply to be mean... I just don't like people gawking at me.
After awhile, I went searching for him. He wasn't in the lobby or kitchen; I went to his room last. His door is always open so that's why I don't knock. Shiki was lying in his bed, staring up at the ceiling with a bored expression. Finally noticing my presence, he reluctantly sits up. I take a seat facing him.
"I'm sorry/Gomenasai" we said to each other. That was unexpected. He stared at me as to continue. "I didn't mean to yell at you, dude. I shoulda locked the door; my fault," I gave a cheerful smile, followed by an observant glance around the room, "Damn boy, your room is so fuckin' clean, unlike Ichijou's. Last time I was in there, I saw a pair of boxers near the door. Such a lovely sight to see in the mornin'," throwing my head back in laughter, I fell backwards out of the bed. This was taken advantage of by Onyx. She used me as a step ladder, just to get to Shiki. Rubbing up against his side, purring like crazy—like she owns the place! Wow, I'm competing with a cat… But isn't he dating Rima? Or are they just friends? Where's October when ya need her? Why am I asking questions that will never be answered?! . But if there is something going on between them, I will have no chance… why must I fall for people who are way out of my reach?!
"Onyx loves you," I giggled while setting myself back on the bed and away from the edge, I might add. "So that's her name… Aidou named her Strawberry." How does Onyx look like an effin strawberry? "He's weird-" "You just noticed?" "Well aren't you sweet," I rolled my eyes with a lopsided grin as I reach for my cat to go back into my room. Just as I reach the door, I hear his monotone voice, "Aren't you going to get your revenge for me walking in on you?" I look back with a confused look, "since you seem to have a sweet tooth for revenge." He's been listening to nevershoutnever; how cute. My smile turns into a wicked one as I walk over to him. "I'm a bit too tired…but since you insisted, why not?" you could hear a smirk in my voice as I lean in next to his ear; only to lick the shell of his ear before nipping at it. He was blushing when I pulled away. As soon as I got in the hallway, I broke into a fit of giggles.
