CHAPTER 6!!!XP
Considering the fact that my blood screams for Nate and that he was starting to act all deadly like in class you'd think he would keep his space... apparently not. He jumped in front of me and hugged me whispering in my ear with an angel voice.
"Why?" He asked, which confused me. Why what, was i suppose to know the answer to that?
"What?" I was still trying to rap my head around everything. This was just way to confusing right now.
"Why?" He asked again, tightening his arms around me, but i felt his back stiffen a little and his breathing stopped.
"What are you talking about Nate? I'm not following you at all" I looked up and saw him looking at the wall, his face full of thought. How was he acting this way, two seconds ago he was trying not to kill me and now he's acting like...he doesn't smell anything. He looked at me saying nothing and looked away.
"Why would you come to that conclusion? That I would kill you, I can't kill you without getting stopped by the teacher" There was an edge to his voice. I looked at him surprised by all this I still hadn't rapped my head around it all.
"Lair" I spit the word. He looked confused, He put his hands on my checks and made me look at him while he looked in my eyes. I pushed his hands off and leaned against the wall, crossing my arms and looked to my right seeing nothing. From the corner of my eye I saw him stiffen again and folded his hands into fists. I thought of one of two options. Tell him the truth that I figured out what he was and wasn't scared. There also the other option walk off and not talk to him ever again, but that was failure even before I thought of it. I signed and was the first to talk from our three minute silence.
"I figured it out" My voice was full of hesitant while I still looked away.
"Figured what out?" He said warily, his voice strained. I didn't say anything for a while and I saw -from the corner of my again- that he was getting impatient. I folded my arms across chest and looked up at him -no more then 3 or 4 inches- while I talked.
"What you are" I cringed from his reaction. I could tell as much as he tried not to lose control he did. His irises went straight bright red, he started to tremble and his jaw locked so hard where it looked like the bone was about to pop out any second. He grabbed my arm firmly -to hard for a human, not that it mattered- and walked out the nearest exit which was only about two or three hallways away. We were outside the school now, on the side of the school the forest a few yards from the road next to us.
"What" he spoke through his unmoving lips. I was able to hear the acid in his voice there's no mistaking that. I looked at him worried.
"It's that big of a deal Nate, it's not like I'm going to go tell everyone in the school. I'm just letting you know you don't have to hide it from me anymore I already figured it out" I assured him.
"When" His voice or posture didn't change.
"The first day I came to this school ..." My voice full of hesitant again. He was shocked, his eyes narrowed and he became a statue. What and over-reaction I thought. I rolled my eyes at him.
"Your being very absurd, I don't see the problem. Nothing is going to change and nothing has to change it will be as if I never even knew again. Gosh"
"Jess no human is suppose to know of our existence, because of this me, my family and especially you are in grave danger" He said, his voice change not his posture though. Human. Normal. Right, everything I want, and everything I can't have just laying there being a lie for everyone I know and knew. Ridiculous I thought. He saw the sadness in my face and misunderstood.
"I won't let that happen I promise. I'm just warning you now that your already in danger." He assured me. I knew I was about to over react but it wasn't because of him, it was me I couldn't just stand here and tell the lie I've told everyone my to long of a life. Why couldn't I tell him the lie I've told everyone else I know? Why was this so hard and different? Only then did I realize I was in love with him. Tears ran down my check, when he saw them he wiped them away he was about to say something else but I interrupted him.
"It's not that" More tears ran down my face. I moved his hands off my face and ran back in the school. I saw from the corner of my eye his face, his torn face. I ran in the classroom and straight to my desk to get my things. It felt I just told him goodbye for some reason, but I didn't that's what I had to do and that's what the feeling inside me is. I just won't let it out. My classmates stared at me confused. When I was about to leave the room Carlos grabbed my hand.
"What's wrong?" He stepped in front of me and tried to see my face but I just kept looking away.
"Nothing, I'm leaving early today, bye Carlos" I gave him a quick hug and left. I closed the door and when I turned around he was there. I bit my tongue to stop me from me telling the lie I didn't want to tell.
"I"m sorry, I'm not going to lie to you though." He signed and said sorry again. I just nodded and walked away. I drove home slowly, which irritated me but the tears were warning enough not to drive fast. When I got inside my house I went upstairs. Anna was in my room so it didn't help anything. It took me a while to remember that I told my mom she could stay in my room till her room is ready. I just dumped my backpack at the door. Anna looked at me shocked, she rushed to my side and just hugged me. I have to admit she was good at the comforting thing. I walked to the bed while she had a arm around my shoulders. When I sat down she sat down next to me she didn't say anything she just let me cry on her shoulder obviously not caring if I ruined it. Eventually I got a headache from the tears and tried to calm myself enough to sleep.
I woke up in the sheets the light was dim. I looked out my window and saw the orange-ish blue sky, sunset. Isabel jumped on the bed at feet startling me, my mom just stood next to the bed, Anna was sitting next to me she had my hand in her lap, smoothing it.
"Hey, what was all that about?" Anna looked at me.
"Oh um it's kind of a long story" I said
"We've got time. Family first right?" Anna smiled at me. I took a deep breath and decided to just tell them.
"Um, well it's about Nate" I looked down.
"Did he hurt you? Oh wait he can't hurt you duh" My mom voices faded out of the worry while she face palmed her forehead.
"No, just well..." What was I going to tell them? That I fell in love with a vampire and he still thinks I'm human? Okay I give it's a good thing he still thinks I'm human but what about me falling in love with him? What was I going to do about that?
"Just tell us ether way we won't get mad. Although I should speak for myself" Isabel said in her angel voice.
"Hey hey, I'm the one who said family first okay." That was Anna's little way of saying she wouldn't get mad to, it was obvious.
"Same here" My mom said. I knew they would get mad anyway so I didn't get all hopeful.
"I told Nate that I know he's a vampire. He told me that I was in danger because now I know. I already knew that though and besides technically since were part of the mythical world we're not in danger. He asked when I figured out and I told I knew since the first time I laid my eyes on him. Then I kinda figured something else out. I was planning to tell him it wouldn't matter if I knew I'm only human. I was going to tell him the lie I've been telling all this time, but I couldn't" I looked down when I was done.
"What do you mean you couldn't?" My mom asked.
"I mean that... well... I'm kind of in love with him. That's why I couldn't tell him the lie I couldn't lie to him because I love him. With all my heart I do" I cringed down waiting for there reaction, and they all saw me cringe to. Isabel froze in shock not able to do anything, my mom was starting to get mad I could only tell because her eyes were starting to get red. Anna was the only one who stayed calm maybe because she knew what I was talking about.
"We're moving that's it. You were right Jess it was better for you to leave the school" My mom started to pack my things. She went to my closet and started taking clothes out. She went under my bed and grabbed my luggage.
"What? No mom I"m not leaving." My voice sounded like I've been crying for a few hours, which was exactly the case.
"I agree. Mom she can't just leave and get over him, especially if he likes the way she does to." Anna defended me. My mom turned to Anna.
"No, this is not okay how can you just sit there and agree with her? This isn't the first time you know last time she went out with someone they almost died because of it" My mom told me and Anna.
"Only because he's human mom! Nate is part of the mythical world just like the rest of us. we won't be normal and nether will he!" I spit the words at my mom. Anna seemed to still be on my side.
"Your breaking the rules Jess!" My mom shouted at me. I jumped up, Anna got up with me and I glared at my mom. My mom stepped back to my closet, smelling my blood.
"I did a mistake then I realize that but braking the rules or not it can easily be fixed" I spit the words at her again.
"What your going to go to king and tell him your turning into a vampire?!" My mom shouted at me taking a step forward.
"If that's what it takes then yes!" I shouted back leaning forward a little. Isabel recovered from her frozen position and jumped between us. My mom grabbed her and put Isabel behind her as if she was going to fight me if that's what it took, then I would. I can't blame her though I would put Isabel behind me if I was about to fight my child to. That just seemed sick fighting your own child? No, I wouldn't even do that but so I guess I can blame her for considering the fight and threatening me make me move away from Nate.
"NO!" Isabel's voice wasn't like an angel for the first time it sounded like a dark witch's voice. She shoved past my mom and stepped between us again stomping her feet one in front of the other so we couldn't move her now... unless we pick her up of course.
"Isabel move out the way" I said alertly. Anna still seemed to be on my side, which I was grateful for. She looked at me her eyes pitch black.
"NO! THIS IS SO STUPID!" she roared, she looked at my mom "I CAN'T BELIEVE YOUR ACTUALLY CONSIDERING FIGHT YOUR OWN DAUGHTER! JUST LISTEN TO HER POINT OF VIEW FOR JUST A SECOND DAM! YOU WOULD DO THE SAME THING!" Isabel continued to glare at our mom until she said something.
"What is wrong with you Isabel? I can't believe your saying this is okay, she broke a rule" Rose -our mom- told Isabel calmly but it took efforts to do that it was obvious in her voice.
"NO RULE IS BROKEN MOM!" Isabel roared.
"Yes there is!"
"WHAT RULE MOM! WHAT RULE! IF THERE'S A RULE THAT SAYS YOU CAN'T FALL IN LOVE PLEASE LET ME KNOW!" Isabel balled her hands into fists and Rose just walked out. Isabel looked after her not saying anything until she left the room and closed the door. Slam might be a better word, when Rose closed the door it's like you were able to feel the vibration it shocked me that the door didn't brake. Isabel looked at me, still glaring.
"Before you go off. I just want to say thank you. I'm glad you stood up for me" I told Isabel.
"I didn't stick up for anyone" she spit the words at me. "I just prevented a fight over something this stupid. Mom is right though about one thing. This is dangerous, not for us but for him. If you truly love him then you would do something about it. There is no rule broken...yet." Isabel just looked at me and her eyes turned normal color again.
"I will, I won't let it get out of hand I promise." I assured her.
"I hope so I'm to young to die okay?" Isabel started to walk out and I just nodded. Isabel was the strongest of us all. Only because she was so young though in our world she's only 29 years old but in human world she's 13. I'm second to strongest, then it's Anna then our mom, Rose. Anna was a good fighter though almost as good as me, theoretically speaking that is. I'm stronger then her but she's a better fighter so It's pretty much even. I turned around and sat on the bed and Anna sat next to me.
"I realize this is bad but I'm not going to ignore it. I love him" I looked down while I was talking.
"Yeah, I mean I get mom's view on this but I also get yours I was in love with a guy back in California, then got over him when he cheated on me. He's one of those guys where you can tell he would cheat on you though. We should get ready for bed now" she got up and so did I as we got ready for bed. After that we went on the computer I sat in Anna's lap while we looked at poems, checked our emails and looked at funny videos on Youtube.com. It wasn't until 2:00 a.m. that we actually got tired. Anna went to sleep but I went to watch t.v. I wasn't tired enough to go to bed. At 4:30 I got tired and went to sleep.
I dreamed this time though. Me and Nate were hiking and when we weren't careful enough Nate fell through thin ice. As much as I tried to help it wouldn't work, then Anna came and she saved him. Then Anna just disappeared after he thanked her, which was weird.
