Chapter 13
"I have a hunch . . . that Randolph has already fallen for her"
A shock of electricity went thru me when our lips touched, I couldn't describe the feeling of what I was feeling, all I know is that I was happy with him and I would never want to be anywhere else right now. We slowly broke from our kiss and Cyril cupped my cheek rubbing his thumb on my cheek
"I love you" he whispered in my ear
"I love you too" as I was saying those words I felt a sudden chill in my spine i looked behind me and i saw Randolph staring at us, his eyes filled with sadness, pain, and he looked paler that usual what was wrong with him? Why did he look as if he was in so much pain? He looked hurt looking at us? So many questions only one person can answer. . . . why was I even bothering to be concerned with him?
"You ok?" Cyril asked while intertwining his fingers with mine
"He saw us"
"What do you mean?"
"Randolph was watching us . . . his right there" i pointed at the window where Randolph was standing but he was gone like he suddenly vanished
"Where is he? He as just there!" I said while looking at Cyril
"It's ok!" he said making me look at him yet why did he look so concerned almost panicky himself?
The rest of the day went uneventful, boring classes and teachers mistaking me for a new student god was that annoying, Cyril dropped me of at my house we were standing in front of the house
"See you tomorrow" he said looking at me in the eyes
"Yeah"
"Hey look at me, don't worry about it so much" he said while holding my chin up so I could look at him in the eyes our lips slowly coming together, when suddenly the front door suddenly flung open revealing my mom
"My sweet daughter!" she practically screeched while crushing me with a hug "I'm so sorry i left you alone for so long! I missed you! Im sorry but i have to take away my daughter! " she said looking at Cyril what a mood killer!
"Cyril sorry but I guess you have to go, see you tomorrow?" I said looking sorry
"Sure see you tomorrow then , bye" he said with a small smile
My mom and I entered the house, well mom practically dragged me inside the house "I really missed you!" she said while hugging me
"Aw, mom I missed you too!" i said hugging her back
"So? Who was that 15 out of 10? And what's with the sudden transformation?" she gestured her hands up and down
"Oh, that was Cyril . . . my . . .uhm. . . boyfriend and-" she stared at me wide eyed
"H-his your boyfriend? But what happened to you and Randolph i thought you were going out with him?" she said while we entered the kitchen
"Uhm . . it's a long story you might not want to hear it" i said while sitting down
"Don't say that honey, im your mother even though im not here 24/7 i still care about what happens to my daughter" she held my had "So please tell me"
I told her about her everything by everything i mean since Cyril started school till Cyril bringing me to the front door a few minutes ago we'll minus me becoming a vampire and being a descendant of the very first vampire on earth
"I can't believe how strong my daughter is!"mom said while hugging me "now let's stop sobbing about good for nothing men, let's go have that mother-daughter time we've been planning for, for the past months while I was away" she said pulling me of the chair and leading to her car
"Mom! where are we going?"
"To a spa dear, to get rid of . . . uhm . . . stress"
The rest of our time at the spa went uneven full, me and my mom talking about things that happened while she was gone her of course staying away from any topic with He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named what mom likes to call him aka. Randolph. We had dinner after finishing with our "mother-daughter day" or what i like to call waste your pay check day! YAY!
~few days later~
i had not seen Randolph this past few days which by the way is making me a bit suspicious, i met up with Catherine and Jen after class since we decided to get some coffee we all go really close with Alex this past few days as well,he and Catherine are almost like best friends. We were discussing about the masquerade ball that was going to be in a week
"So . . . Jen did Charles ask you yet?" I asked while taking a sip of raspberry coffee, she nodded with a hint of pink in her cheeks god how I admire Charles and his effect on my Oh-So-Loveable-Tom-Boy-of-a-Best-Friend
"How about you Cyril asked you yet?" she asked
"Well unfortunately no" I said disappointment dripping in every word
"How about you Cat? Has anyone ask you yet?"
"Yes a lot of guys asked me but im waiting for Alex to ask me"
"He better ask you or else he'll be tasting my fist in his pretty little head" said Jen jokingly Catherine has been kind of a sister to me and Jen and of course we support her with liking Alex since he is a nice guy and all and not to mention they look uber cute together
"Aww Jen did I ever tell you I love you?" she asked while hugging Jen
"Who wouldn't?" she asked with a cheeky grin on her face
"Oh I don't know maybe Cindy and her devils litter of fiends " I said with a matter of fact tone of mine
"She hates everyone even cute little puppies I bet she even eats them for a mid night snack"
"Trying blocking the mental image of the poor puppy of my brain"I said while erasing and invisible blackboard in front of me we exchanged some jokes about cindy and we all started to giggle hysterically we only stopped when everyone in the café stared at us
"So back to the topic of the masquerade ball; what are your dresses going to be?" asked Catherine trying to hold her giggles
"I still have no idea what to wear" shrugged Jen while picking up a cup of coffee
"How 'bout you Nixxy?" she asked again
"I think im not going since you know Cyril hasn't asked me yet and the She-devil and her boyfriend ("manslut/ man whore" said Jen correcting me)is going to be there I'd rather not see both of them for a while" I said while stretching my arms
"That's the more reason why you should go there to get more revenge on the two bitches! Excuse the word . . . they shouldn't stop you from having fun and anyway im sure Cyril will ask you to the ball im positive of it" replied Catherine
"But Cat! I don't want to see both of them!" I replied pleadingly "But . . . if Cyril will ask me to the ball then I would not have a problem with going to the ball at all" I continued in a mumble
"You will go young lady because I already have a plan for those two" said Jen with her I have a diabolical plan and you better go with it or else voice
"But-"
"No but's!"she interrupted and pulling Cat to whisper something her which by the way I am not liking who knows what those two will do when they team up with each other, while they were whispering to each other and an evil smirk started to form in Cat's face while they were giggling about something I am not sure of, suddenly I felt like someone was watching me I looked around the café and my eyes stop to met with the most beautiful eyes I ever seen electric blue with specks of silver in them they pulled me in like a magnet not taking my eyes of his or her gaze I excused myself to go to the ladies room when I really was going to follow those beautiful eyes, as I came closer to the person he, she or it started to go to the back garden of the café I followed and what I know as a he now kept looking back at me like he wanted me to follow him to the gardens, his face was always cover with bushes or he'd turn away quickly when I almost get a good look of his face the sandy blond locks with a hint of black in them looked familiar but I couldn't put my finger at who that person was.
He was fast even If I ran after him which is weird by the way since I am a vampire how the hell is he still too fast for me, I follow him to the rose garden that was only a few blocks away from the café, I tried harder to run faster but to no avail he was still faster than me who was this person did I know him from the past, do I know him at this current life time or is he just a stranger; I formed a smirk on my face when I remembered that it was a dead end at direction where he was heading to I ran faster so that I would catch him before he could escape me one more corner and it's a dead end pretty eyes I said to myself was I watched him go to the direction of the dead end, I was turning to the corner where I saw him go to but to my disappointment he was gone I looked around how the hell did he even get away there is no way out the rose garden had only one exit how could a person vanish into thin air?
I looked every side of the dead end hoping to see another exit he could have snuck into but instead of me finding a secret exit I was distracted by a something shining on the grass I came closer and picked up the mysterious item it was a locket; oblong in shape, I looked antique maybe during the Victorian era, it had vines engraved on it two letters over lapping each other WE was the engraved letters it also had two small stones one dark red and the other dark purple I traced the engravings on the locket it look so detailed, so beautiful, so familiar I held it up to the sun and noticed something printed or engraved I should say I turned the locket around and read the words: Forever and always I will be bound to you I felt I tug in heart while reading those words I looked and the locket but it had no openings in it so I could see what was inside I felt a vibration from my pocket someone was calling me I picked up the phone
"Where the hell are you?" asked Jen angrily
"Sorry Jen but something came up and I forgot to tell you I had to leave I heading home right now"
"What! We waited for you for like 15 minutes and all you can tell me is sorry?"
"Ohh . . . come on Jen I'll do anything to make it up to you guys"
"Anything?"
"Yes anything"
"Fine I'll forgive you if you let me and Cat over here pick out your dress and do your hair and make-up for the ball" she said while giggling
"Does it really have to be that one?"
"Yes it has to be than one"
"Ok fine I'll let you pick it for me"
"YES!" she screamed while doing a victory dance since im hearing here sing the song she came up with for her victory dance"So why don't we meet up after classes tomorrow? To buy dresses and stuff"
"Fine, fine!" I said while putting the locket in my pocket
"Yay! Thank you kay! Bye me and Cat still have some planning to do"
"K, bye!"
I quickly arrived inside my room, mom was not home because she had to meet a friend of hers that I could not remember the name. I took a quick shower and took out the locket from my pocket why did it look so familiar? Did that man purposely left the locket for me to find? Did I know him during the time that I was Elizabeth? And more importantly who was he? Hundreds of questions went thru my head while looking at the locket then I started to notice the stones were starting to glow I let my hand go thru the stones I felt a bit dizzy
"Here a birthday gift for you love" said a familiar voice to me while giving me a purple box his face a big blur to me
"What is it?" I asked enthusiastically
"Why don't you find out?"he said gesturing to the box while giving me a brilliant smile I nodded and opened the box I was a big music box and a locket
"It's beautiful!"I said looking at the locket
"Im glad you like it" he smiled "Elizabeth I want to say something to you"
"What is it love?" I asked slightly confused at what he was going to say
"I . . . I don't know how to say this love . . . but I have to accompany father to france for a few months" he said while holding my hand "Would you please wait for me?" he asked pleadingly
"I would wait no matter how look it took" I said to him while lightly kissing him
"I love you" he whispered
"I love you too" I replied
"Forever I will always be bound to you love" he said
A tear slowly started to roll in the corners of my eyes I clutched at the locket remembering the memory I had forgotten but still I could not remember the man's face as if something was blocking me memories to remember him suddenly I heard my mom enter the house I looked at the clock it was already 5 pm I was sitting here for almost an hour! I put the locket on and rushed down stairs
"Hey mom!" I said
"Ohh good you're here!" she said while go inside the kitchen "I have something important to tell you"
"Yeah sure what is it mom?"
"Umm . . . you remember Mr. and Mrs. Goldsmith?" I shivered at the memory
"Y-yeah why?"
"Well-"
"Yes?"
"Umm . . . well me and Rose were talking earlier and well . . ."
"What is it mom?"
"Well they decided to come back and well since their house is under renovation and since I didn't want them to spend money while staying in a hotel I kind of-"
"Mom don't tell me" she gave me an apologetic look
"Come on honey, we've know them since you we're a kid"
"I'm fine with it mom" I said while exiting the kitchen
"Nicole" she said "Please at least try . . . for me"
" . . ."
" . . . Please"
"Fine I'll try"
~Next day~
I sat under the old oak tree and the back of the school while read a book Hunger Games then someone went in front of me I looked up expecting it to be Cyril or Alex but instead I saw Randolph the sun was blinding me a bit it making his expression unreadable
"Can I help you?" I asked slightly annoyed
"Can I talk to you?"
"Isn't than what were doing now?" I asked while counting my reading
"I mean a real conversation Nicole" I said being more serious
". . ." I looked up at him looking at his expression if he really was serious and he was "Fine, what do you want?" I asked putting the book down
"Not here"
"Why you don't want to be seen with me?" I asked cocking up an eye brow
"No it's not that" he said looking around "What I have to say to you is private"
"Fine where are we going then?" I asked as he gestured to the roof top garden the whole walk to the garden was complete silence my mind wondering what was so important to say to me that it needed us to be in a more private place, we arrived in our destination he looked around to make sure no one was around and when he ensured that no one was around I sat down the bench and gestured for me to sit down
"So what's so important that you eve-"
"I'm sorry" he interrupted
"What did you just say?"
"I'm sorry . . . for everything, I don't know why but ever since you and Hummel started going out I started I started to always think of you. . . I feel like I'm braking apart every time I see you together, please don't interrupt" he said while i was planning to say something "Even when I'm with Cindy I find myself thinking of you I even sometimes compare her to you . . . what im trying to say is that . . .that I love you" he said completely calm "And what I want to ask is what do you feel about me?"
"I'm sorry but I don't love you" I said while looking up at the sky "Nor do I hate you, I can love you partly because of what you did to me and mostly because I found the person that I would actually see myself with the person the truly love and I can't hate you because of all the things we both went thru the memories made with all those years we spent together I can't hate you even I tried" I said in a small chuckle
"Do you forgive me then?" he asked
"A bit but I still don't thrust you"
"I don't blame you" he said
"Randolph" I said while standing up "Im sorry" I said while leaving him behind
I quickly ran down the stairs when suddenly someone grabbed me and covered my eyes
"Guess who?" he asked well its obvious who it was
"Cyril I know it's you" I said while giggling
"How did you know?" he asked while making me face him I went closer to his ear
"It's a secret" I whispered
"Keeping secrets are we now?" I grinned at him
"Yup!"
"Well since you're like that maybe I shouldn't ask you to the ball then" he said while turning around
"Ok then maybe I should go with Garret then his been asking me since last week any way"
"Stop right there"
"Why should I you're not taking me to the ball any way so im going to get myself a date"
"But you already have one"
"Who?" I asked with faux innocence
"Me"
"But I don't remember you asking me to go with you and I certainly don't remember saying yes to anybody"
"Fine, Nicole Hayes would you please go with me to the masquerade ball this week end?"
"Hmm . . . I don't know" I said taunting him, he looked like he was going to have a heart attack waiting for my answer if that is even possible I started to grin
"Let me think about it" I said trying to hold my laughter
"Please? Would you please . . . please go with me to the masquerade ball this weekend with cherries on top" I started to grin
"I thought you will never ask of course I would love to go with you"
"I knew that you would say yes" I said grinning and giving me a small kiss
"Hmm . . . your face doesn't agree with you then" I said while giving him a small kiss to "You looked like you we're about to have a heart attack"
"Well you're the only one that has that effect on me you know" he whispered in my ear sending shivers down my spine
"Good" I said smiling at him and holding his hand we walk thru the hallways heading to the direction of the outside garden to meet up with the guys.
After meeting up with the guys me, Cat and Jen all went to shop for our dresses the only one who still didn't have a date yet was Cat since she's waiting for Alex to ask her both of them picked out dresses for me to wear they said that they would try their dresses first since they were going to judge the dresses I was going to wear after about 20 dresses later it was my turn god and both of them practically made me try all the dresses in the shop first dress that I tried on was a black cocktail dress that fell just below the knee the front was covered up but the back was very reviling it had long sleeves and was a bit tight fitting which by the way was not at all for a masquerade ball Jen and Cat agreed with me a we decided that it was not the dress about 30 or 40 dresses later I was left with just 5 more dresses to try on.
The first dress I tried on was a flowy white dress that reached the floor It had a v neck and also went in a v in the back Jen and Cat though it was to wedding-y so they shoved me in the dressing room once again to try on the next dress which was yellow colored and hit just at my knees it was not my style at all it was a frilly and stuff, the 3rd was multicolored dresses which I might add looked like a rain bow barfed up that dress, 4th dresses to simple said Cat and for Jen it was too boring. The final dress finally it was dark purple with a hit of dark blue, dark green and black it reached all the way to the floor it had a halter top but it kind of looked a bit loose it was draped, it had many folds and a thick black ribbon just below the chest I have to say it surprised me as well Cat and Jen just looked at me
"Guys what do you think about this one I really like I how about you?" I asked
"That is the dress Nix!" said Jen
"Really?" I asked again and Cat stood up and circled me with her hand resting on the chin
"Color suits you perfectly, it's not to reviling, the way it is on your body is perfect, fabric is good, I have to say this is the dress" she said while stopping and grinning at me "Now for the mask,shoes and some accessories" I bought the dress, Jen bought a one shoulder dark blue mermaid style dress it a bit of beading on the shoulder while Cat bought a emerald green bustier cocktail dress that had a bit of draping to it as well with a black sash just below the chest.
After shopping for our mask and shoes Cat asked us if we wanted to have a sleep over at her house before the ball I said yes while Jen said she'd just go there early since she had something's to do before the ball we quickly parted ways with her before me and Cat went to my house to get some clothes
"Mom im home!" I said while putting my keys on the table
"Welcome home dear how was the shopping?" she asked while meeting me in the hall way "So who's this?" she asked while eyeing Cat
"Mom. Catherine, Catherine, Mom. She's a transfer student and Cyril's little sister" I said
"Nice to meet you Mrs. Hayes" Cat said while shaking my mom's hand
"Pleasures mine"
"So . . ."before my mom would even complete her sentence I stopped her
"Mom don't you even think about it" I turned to Cat "You can wait in my room it's the first door in the left" she nodded and smiled at my mom I quickly ran upstairs to give me a my mom privacy
"Mom im going to have a sleep over at Cat's place so we could get ready for the ball I'll just be sleeping there for about two days, so can I go?"
"Of course you can you finally socialize with girls your age and not just be with Jen all the time" she said wiping an invisible tear on her eyes
"Mom I wasn't that socially awkward you know"
"If you say so dear" she said with a chuckle while going inside the living room
I quickly went to my room hoping Cat didn't go thru my closet and insulting my clothes
"What the hell is this?" she asked while holding up a hot pink poncho
"A poncho Cat" I said while taking a bag out of my closet to put my stuff in she threw the poncho on the floor with disgust on her face as I was packing Cat was going around my room
"So what's in here?" she asked I turned around to see her next to the closet of clothes that my mom bought me that I have never worn y the way my eyes widened and quickly blocked the closet from her she gave me a couple of clothes that I've worn this past few days since she said my clothes were a no, no to my new look and I was not even comfortable with half of what she gave me and when she sees this I'm sure it would be torture
"What's in there?" she asked suspiciously
"N-Nothing" I said blushing a bit
"I know when you're lying you know!"
"Im not!"
"There it is again you are lying!"
"How do you know?"
"You blink and you curl up your nose!Duh!"
"No I don't!"
"Yes you do"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"No!"
"No!"
"Yes!" I gasped "Ugh . . . fine I do it when im lying but please lets just forget about this closet please"
"ok fine let's forget it then" she sat in my bed and I followed to finish my packing and before I knew it I saw running vampire speed to the closet door and ripped it open she gave a gasp while seeing all the dreeses, flowy blouses, heels, boots, skirts, coats, leather jackets and a bunch of other girly stuff including make-up and accessories
"Why didn't you tell me you had all of this?" she gestured to the clothes
"You didn't ask and I was sure you would force me to wearing those" I said while pointing at the clothes
"God Nixxy who wouldn't want to wear this stuff?"
"Me and Jen" by now she wasn't listening anymore and was mumbling stuff like what would go with something I didn't quite catch I quickly packed my clothes and we made our way to Cat's house the rest of the day it went uneventful Cat insisted that me and Cyril shouldn't see each other until the ball so she basically she locked me in her room to I guess stay in here till the ball or I could only go out when Cyril is not around it was about 9 pm , me and Cat were talking about the ball
"So Cat you have a date yet?" I asked
"actually I do" she said
"Really who?" I asked with enthusiasm
"It's a secret you just have to wait and see" she said with a smirk
"Fine" I said not trying to get anything out of her since it will be useless anyway we talked about some ideas we had for our hair and suddenly it hit me
"Cat?" I asked while she was painting her nails with nail polish
"Yeah what is it?"
"How did you and I meet you know . . .from the past? I remember when me and Cyril met but when you and I met i remember nothing, since mainly I remembered in a dream but still I don't have a dream about you and I meeting so I just wanted to ask if you could tell me the story?" she started to form a big smile on her face
"I would love too!" she said while putting down the nail polish and facing me "Well we meet about one month after you and Cyril met . . ."
~flash back~
"Cyril would you like to a company me in shopping?" I asked
"I would love that Elizabeth" he replied while standing up from his chair we quickly got to our carriage and went to town it was almost Christmas so me and Cyril were buying gifts for everyone he noticed that it was starting to get late and the sun was quickly setting I let the carriage go first since we were going to be a bit late and since we could just hire another one Cyril kept insisting that Mr. Mason stay but I told him that we will take a bit too long in our shopping and since Mr. Mason was elderly it would be better if he would go home rather than staying outside in the cold, Cyril finally gave up and in the agreement the Mr. Mason would come back for us which is why we are waiting for him outside the bakery, It was really getting colder and it looked like it will so start snowing I rubbed both of my hands together when suddenly Cyril wrapped his coat around him I jumped a little because I was surprised but slowly came closer to him feeling the warmth of his body
"Cyril . . ."
"hmm ?" he said while watching the sky
"Thank you"
"For what?"
"For everything that you are doing for me"
"It's the least that I could do and if anyone here is supposed to be saying thank you that person should be me"
"No Cyril you don't need to say thank you to me cause with you being my friend and a good one at that means everything to me and I really hope that we could find your sister soon" I said while resting my head in his shoulders
"I hope so too" he whispered suddenly we heard a bit of crying Cyril and I suddenly looked at where it was coming from
"Cyril what was that?"
"Stay here i'll look at what it is" he said
"Let me come with you"
"No it might be dangerous"
"Cyril its more dangerous if you leave me here alone"
"Touché" he said with a smirk god how I love that smirk of his I do have one secret that I keep from him, the truth is that I am In love with him but I don't want to tell him because I afraid that I would lose him like I lost William ever since he died I closed myself to everyone denying to talk to anyone that wanted to comfort me I shut everyone out even Cyril but he still insisted that I talk to him when the others gave up he became the light in my darkness my refuge the angel that gave a meaning to life again, I learned how to smile again to laugh and for once I felt free with him sometimes think that William did this for me he gave me Cyril when he died. I crying started to get louder and louder when finally we saw a girl wearing bloody clothing and was curled up in a ball she kept muttering im sorry . . . im sorry we slowly came closer to her she looked about 2 years younger than us she had really long oily hair and had pale skin she was trembling I fear I felt sorry for her
"E-Excuse me but are you ok?" I asked slowly walking to her she slowly raised her head up and suddenly I felt Cyril get rigged
"C-catherine?" he asked with a sound of relief in his voice who was this girl I asked myself
"Cyril is . . . is that you?" she asked with fear in her voice
"Yes . . . Yes it's me Catherine!" he said while hugging her "I was so worried . . . don't worry im here" he said while stroking her hair and cradling
"Im sorry I . . . I didn't mean to hurt those people i-I was just so scared" she said between breaths that's when I realized that it was Cyril's sister
"Cyril . . . lets get her home so she could clean up and rest" I said while sitting next to him he smiled at me and nodded when we got back to the bakery Mr. Mason was already there and was asking what happened to us and who was the girl Cyril was carrying we both explained that he was his sister and no more questions were asked. When we got home I quickly asked the maids to get a room ready preferably next to Cyril's and also a bath, Catherine quickly had her bath and I lead her to her room I gave her some pajamas and tea so she would get warmer
"Here it will help you relax a bit" I said handing her the tea she quickly accepted and took a few sips
"Uhm . . . where's Cyril?" she asked with innocence written all over her face
"He got you a more proper snack" I said with a smile
"Y-you know about us?" she asked with a slight shock in her voice I gave her a small smile
"Yes I do ever since I met your brother I already know"
"But why aren't you frightened of us?" she asked while slowly looking at me
"Why should I when I know you wouldn't hurt anyone? Not unless it was deemed acceptable?" I said while still smiling at her she gave me a small smile back
"So you have been taking care of my brother then?" she asked again I chuckled a bit
"You could say that but sometimes it's the other way around" I heard a small chuckle from her too
"You should sleep you look like you haven't slept in ages" I said trying to joke with her so that she would feel a bit more comfortable around me
"The truth is I really haven't slept in month's" she confessed
"W-why is that?"
"I get nightmares everytime I try to sleep" I held her hand
"Would you like me to stay here with you tonight then?" I asked out of the blue then she smiled
"That would be nice" she said with a bigger smile I climbed in the bed and lay down next to her I almost did the same thing to Cyril when he first came here but I just held his hand and sang him a lullaby till he fell asleep I got the same ideas so I started to hum stroked Catherine's hair I hummed what my mom used to sing to me when I was a child to get me to sleep and it looked like it was working for they to after finishing my humming Catherine was already peacefully asleep next to me while holding my hand I slowly got out of bed but failed because Catherine was not letting go of my hand so I slept next to her for the rest of the night.
~Flash back~
"What was the lullaby?" I asked then she started to think then started to hum (A/N: its more like "Kiss the Rain") I listen carefully started to hum it aswell
The days past on it was finally the day of the ball everyone was free from school to get ready and stuff Catherine laid down all of her make-up in her vanity table and she started to do her hair she had French braided a small section of her hair in the back and loosened it up a bit and forming a massy side bun her make-up was a brown smokey eye did for just like 8 minutes right after she finished with her hair and make-up Jen arrived and so Cat did her hair first before it was my turn, Cat worked her magic with Jen's hair and made it look a bit longer and made it look like a wavy bob she added a bit of silver clips on Jen's hair to make it look not so plain and to my surprise Jen loved it Jen's make up was a simple black smokey eye , then finally it was my turn I sat in front of the mirror
"No you should turn around away from the mirror" Cat said while turning my chair to face her she quickly went and did my hair she said my hair was just perfect the way it was so the only thing that she had to do was style it she braided it she was done in just a few minutes and moved on with my make-up
She slowly turned me around to face the mirror, the person that I was looking at was not me my hair was braided in a vertical French braid and was made into an updo it also had a few hairs that framed my face she also added a peacock feather in my hair and the make-up fitted me dress perfectly it was dark purple it had a few dark blues, dark greens and black in it wasn't very overpowering and my lips were just nude I couldn't believe that I actually looked like that I wore my black colored mask with a bit of peacock feathers on the side I also didn't use any accessories.
We agreed with the guys that we would all meet up with them at the ball since Jen and Cat wanted to surprise the guys, when we arrived at the ball everyone was already there and dancing then I saw Cindy well I knew it was her with her perfume you could smell it for miles away dancing with Randolph
"I think I can't do this!" I said while looking inside the ball room it was really dramatically and elegantly decorated it was a bit dark but you still could see they added strips of cloth in the sealing to give it a tent like effect, the private lounges where covered with sheer silver curtains some tables were surrounding the dance floor, silver chandeliers hanged with some invisible wire that gave it the effect that it was floating, and some dancers where dancing in the air with clothes supporting them I forgot what they were called (a/n: no seriously I forgot what they were called) the center pieces for the tables were very intricately decorate I was all so magical that i couldn't help but stare.
"Ohh yes you can!" said Jen pushing in into the door suddenly a spot light was on me and the music stopped playing everyone was looking at me I mentally reminded myself that I would kill Jen I suddenly so a very pissed Cindy glaring at me ok scratch that I would thank Jen for this seeing that face on Cindy is priceless I slowly walked down the stairs to get Cindy more pissed I smirked slowly as I reached the last platform of the stair case where a guy that looked about my age was standing smiling at me I looked at his eyes it was electric blue with silver specks on them still to my disappointment he was wearing a plain black mask he gave me a dazzling smile and bowed while reaching out his hand
"May I have this dance?" he said with a familiar voice I smiled maybe I could find out who he is if I dance with him
"I would love too" I replied while taking his hand he slowly guided me to the dance floor and the we bought looked into each other's eyes and slowly placed my hand in his hand and the other in his back the music started to play and slowly he guided me it felt as if I was floating in air
"Who are you?" I asked being dazed from how beautiful his eyes were
"You should know by now" he said while smirking at me "it is a shame that you don't remember me I was hoping that the locket would do the trick but I guess it wasn't enough, one clue for you to figure it out you will find everything you need with that locket"
"What do you mean?"
"You have really forgotten about me" he said with a bit of disappointment in his voice
"How would I remember you if you don't tell me who you are" I said with confusion in my voice"Were you a friend of mine?"
"You could say that"
"Are you with me in school?"
"Yes"
"Are we in the same year?"
"Yes"
"How many classes do we have together?"
"2 maybe 3 you figure it out but you seemed to have forgotten about me"
"How could I not remember who you are, I surely would remember if I met someone with those eyes"
"I guess you just didn't notice it before"
"Are . . . are you a v-am?"
"Vampire?well my answer to that is yes"
"Did I know you from the past?"
"Yes"
"Why didn't the locket have any openings in it how will that give me the answers to what I want to know?"
"I . . . I will live that for you to remember my dear Elizabeth" he said while kissing the nape of my neck
