THE LIFE OF A TEENAGE VAMPIRE by Veronica Gibson (free children's ebooks pdf .txt) 📕

            “Thanks sis, how’s Luce holding up about not being with Jill,” he asked

            “She’s gonna make it, it’s difficult for her though.” I informed him

            “I can understand that, how are you doing, with the whole not being close to home.” He asked

            “I’m all right, my homesickness wore off about a week ago.” I informed him with a smile “and now that I’m actually making friends life’s gonna get a whole lot better,” I said, gathering my books off the desk

            “If I’m not careful I’m gonna have to fight people to be able to talk to you at all,” he said with a laugh

            “Not hardly, I’m not gonna be that popular,” I informed him as he followed me to calculus.

            “Hey, Tommy,” I said

            “Yea,” he said turning back around

            “Try and help Luc get through this, please,” I asked

            “Of course, she is my sister” he said before heading off

            “Thanks,” I said heading into my least favorite class of the day. After lunch I met up with the head mistress,

            “Miss, Charleston how are classes going?” she asked

            “Just fine, Mrs., Trinity” I informed her

            “And you are adjusting to this way of life easily” she inquired

            “Yes Ma’am I have always been a night person anyway, and the students are friendly enough” I reassured her

            “That’s nice, I need to make a change to your schedule,” she finally got to the point “ instead of two sessions with your trainer I’m gonna make it three, between lunch and seventh period.” She said

            “Yes ma’am, that would be alright,” I said

            “Alright that will be all thank you for your time” she said dismissing me. I walked to my dorm to gather my things for training, when I got to my door there was a flat white box on the floor outside the door, I picked the box up and went inside, setting the box on my bed I gathered my workout clothes and went to the gym, ill open the box later, I though.

            “Nicole, has Mrs., Trinity already talked to you,” Dimitri asked

            “Yes, She caught me after lunch,” I informed him wrapping my hands for class

            “Okay, so you know what to do then,” he asked

            “Yes, “ I responded while I stretched, I looked over at him to further my point and noticed he was taking in my every move, I blushed and looked away, “So what are we doing today,” I asked,

            “We are working with something you have probably not worked with before,
at least I hope not,” he said holding up a long sheath

            “A sword?” I questioned

            “Even better,” he said with a smirk and pulled the sword out

            “A samari sword,” I said impressed, “No I haven’t used one of those, but how hard can it be, I Lived in Japan for a little while,” I said, he chuckled at that “What” I asked

            “Nothing, it shouldn’t have surprised me that you lived in Japan, but it did, the fact that you think it wont be hard just because you lived there is what got me, its not easy.” He informed me

            “Okay what ever, just teach me how to hack people up with this thing,” I said holding mine so I could examine it, nice balance, sharp blade

            “I want to see what you can do first,” he said pointing to a practice dummy

            “All right,” I said, combining what I know about the boe staff and my machete, I figured it was like those two combined, and swung at the dummy, decapitating it in one swift motion. I then turned to look at Dimitri and cracked up laughing at his expression.

            “Remind me never to piss you off, wow, apparently its not as hard as I though,” he said,

            “I just envisioned my machete morphed with my staff, “ I informed him

            “uh-huh, okay well there is no more to teach there, you can go change,” he said

            “but we have an hour left, what am I supposed to do ,” I asked, not wanting to leave

            “I’m sure you’ll find something,” he said going to put the swords back, I sighed and went to the dressing room anyway, when I came out he was leaning against the wall waiting for me, he handed me a small box and walked out the door. I looked down at the box and put it in my pocket, I would open it later when I open the box in my room. I headed to the dining hall to grab something to eat because it had gotten late. I was finishing my sandwich when I got to my room, I dropped my keys on the bed and went to take a shower, when I got out I sat down on my bed and opened the big white box, and pulled out a beautiful, black dress, there was no nametag anywhere to let me know who it was from, I sat the dress aside and pulled the little box out from my jeans from where I dropped them on the floor, I opened the lid to see a silver necklace with a small pendant on it in the shape of a heart, this had a note folded up inside the box

            NICOLE,

            I SAW THIS AND I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE BEAUTIFUL ON YOU,

                                                            -DIMITRI

I smiled at the note and put the necklace on, and lay back on my bed still wondering who sent me the dress, I pick it back up, and look at the size,

It’s my size I thought, who could of known that other than my family, so I text them and asked them, none of them sent it. Still pondering I fell asleep.

            I woke up in the morning with a killer headack, and my phone going off at me. I picked it up and turned the alarm off to see I had two messages, one from my brother the other from a number I did not know. I read my brothers first.

            HEY, ARE YOU STILL ON FOR THIS WEEK END, TO GO TO THE CLUB, AND KRISS ALREADY SAID HE WILL GO. I FIGURED YOU HAD GOTTEN BUISY AND HAD FORGOTEN TO ASK HIM SO I DID. LET ME KNOW.

            I messaged him back and told him I was completely up for it, id meet him at his car tomorrow night at eight, then I read the other one, it was from Kriss,

            HEY, YOUR BROTHER GAVE ME YOUR NUMBER, I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS WEEKEND, I HOPE YOU LIKED THE DRESS I SENT, I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING IT ON YOU TOMORROW NIGHT,

                                                            -LOVE KRISS

            I replied telling him I would wear it and I loved the dress, well I found out who it was, that’s a relief, I smiled over at the box that held the dress I neglected to hang up last night, I went over and hung it in the closet so it wouldn’t wrinkle any more than it already had, then I hunted down some Tylenol from the first aid kit in the mirror cabinet. I hung around in my room all day, Friday I had classes off, it was field trip day, I never went on any of them, so instead I straitened my room and read a book my mom had given me for Christmas the year before, it was pretty good.

            I woke up the next morning with the book laying on my face and my stomach yelling at me to feed it , I didn’t eat at all yesterday, I was starving. I put the book back on the shelf and went to have breakfast before getting ready for tonight. When I got back to my room, Dimitri was laying across my bed

            “Ummm, not that I’m complaining but why are you on my bed?” I questioned him.

            “I came to talk to you about something.” He said as he messed with my bedspread

            I sat down next to him on the bed, “okay then we will talk,” I said still confused.

            “Look, I know it not going to happen any time soon, but I want you to know that I have strong feelings for you, and I tried but I cant ignore them.” He said looking me in the eyes. I felt myself blush “well, I have feelings for you to, but I know that it’s impossible because it’s against the rules, and besides that I have a boyfriend I think,” I stumbled out

            “Yea, but just because it’s against the rules doesn’t mean I can’t do this,” he said as he gently grabbed my face and leaned in to kiss me, boy was Kriss a good kisser, but Dimitri made him seem like an amateur. I cant lie I kissed him back and enjoyed every moment of it, and was very away I wanted more as he ran his hand down my arm and placed it at my waist.

            “I can’t do this right now,” I said pulling away slightly

            “Why,” he questioned breathless

            “I have to get ready to meet Tommy, I’m going to a club with him and his girlfriend tonight, you can stay here if you like, but I really have to get ready,” I said getting up from the bed and heading toward the bathroom to take a shower. I got out of the shower and went back to the bedroom to see that he had indeed stayed he was lounging on my bed as I got ready, I did my hair, straightened this time and my make up, before ever deciding which jewelry I was going to wear

            “You’re wearing my necklace,” he said setting up

            “I put it on right after I opened it, which earrings the blue or the green ones” I asked

            “Green they match your eyes” he said. I smiled and blushed slightly but put the green ones on anyway putting the blue ones back in the box, grabbing the dress off the hanger and some underwear out of the dresser, and by underwear I mean some really wild printed boy shorts that make my butt look good, no matter what and a matching bra, and headed to the bathroom to get dressed. When I came back out Dimitri was looking at Natalia’s picture.

            “She was my best friend.”  Said putting my shoes on

            “Was?” he questioned?

            “Yea, she was murdered three years ago, it’s been hard, so what do you think,” I asked him. He turned around to look at me and stopped, not uttering a word

            “Well?” I asked getting kinda nervous

            “Lets just say if I were your father I would never let you out of the house, ever again.” He said still looking at me

            “Well then I will take that as a compliment” I said grabbing my matching handbag I had picked up earlier that week before walking out the door, be fore I made it all the way out Dimitri grabbed my hand and spun me around

            “You look nice,” he said before kissing me, this time not so gently, like he was a starving man having food for the first time,

            “Have fun I will see you when you get back,” he said before heading out my door.

            I meet Tommy at his car right on time

            “Hey, sis this is Bree,” he said introducing us, I shook her hand and told her I was glad to meet her finally, before a pair of arms circled my waist and a deep voice whispered in my ear

            “Wow, its even better than I imagined,” it said

            “Well, I do clean up nice,” I responded as I turned to face Kriss

            “Well, look at you, you look spiffy” I said pulling at his leather jacket

            “Thanks” he said blushing slightly. I giggled and gave him a kiss

            “So are we ready
