The Vampires of the Night: Chapter 16

My heart skipped a beat, Sylvia just asked me out. This Saturday night to the movies. I’m so excited. Even though how much I hated love stories. The movie was about two guys loving a girl one rich, one poor. She picked the poor one even though how much the rich one gave to her.

The image of Josh came into my mind. I started crying. What if I need to make a choice? What if he found out where I am? What if.. a lot of what if’s came to my mind. Sylvia asked me if I was okay I just told him I was crying because the story has a happy ending. Which of course is a stupid lie.

Sylvia bought me an expensive necklace as a sign of our first date together. I remembered the ring Josh gave me on our first date. I threw it to the river bank as I remembered. He doesn’t matter to me anymore. I have a new life with Sylvia as my boyfriend and Victoria as my best friend.

“Come closer, I’ll put this on to you.” He said as he raised my black hair to put the necklace on my neck. I examine the necklace for a while. It was a locket; in it were a small picture of me and Sylvia together. I smiled. We just met a month ago and it was fun being with him. I don’t have to worry about him being hurt by different monsters or getting jealous because he was kidnapped by a good for nothing who thinks she can conquer the world girl.

We spent the night together by having a picnic for a few minutes then going back to the school and watching DVD’s together with Victoria and the others. I never felt so safe like this when I was at camp and electronics wasn’t allowed there. The food is the same but at least here I can spend with my friends longer and we can watch TV too. The only thing I have to worry about is the drama. It appears that some of the people here are so much into drama. Someone stole some one’s boyfriend blah blah blah. I wish those stupid fights will just end because they just keep reminding me of Josh. Ah well, I’ll forget him someday.

“ Let’s watch Zaturna next.” Victoria suggests. I just nodded. I don’t really care about what we were watching as long as I can stare at nothingness for hours and think about nothing at all.
