Chapter 3 Vampies And Wolves Ii
- "Oh I'm not done. They didn't throw you in a basement and tie your hands. They didn't ask for a ransom. They didn't hurt you but rather gave you a safe ride back home after staring at your face for one night. Also, Simon was the one who brought you home, and his eyes was all red"
- "Exactly" Lynn agreed with his every word and they all stared back at her silently. It was then she realized how unconvincing her words were. "Come on guys, Noel you believe me right?"
- "No." Noel replied almost immediately "Sorry girl but you know I don't believe in fairy tales of that sort."
- "The test must be getting to your head. Don't worry, even you if you do fail and have to take a makeup I assure you that you won't be alone. Simon would be there with you" Adam said and they all nodded in agreement.
- "This isn't funny guys" Lynn pouted as Noel turned to face her.
- "Oh, it isn't. I can't believe you took the snacks some stranger gave you. You're way pass the age of being told not to collect things from strangers!" Noel scolded.
- "Well that-" she started but had no excuse to give. She couldn't tell them she actually took the snacks before they even had the chance to offer her some.
- "The probability of you being lured away with snacks seems higher than the rate of you actually being forcefully kidnapped" Noel said but Lynn couldn't agree with that.
- She might have a sweet tooth but there's no way she could get lured by...
- Someone tapped her shoulder and she turned to see a chocolate.
- "Oh, thank you" She took it and started to unwrap it, but then she paused when she noticed them all staring at her. "What?"
- "You scare me Lynn" Adam said with a frightened look
- "You didn't even check to see who handed it over to you!" Noel yelled
- "Well I thought it came from Adam"
- "It wasn't me" Adam threw his hands up as she turned to look at him.
- "What?"
- "That came from me" Chris said behind her.
- She turned back and smiled at the brown haired handsome who smiled back at her. He was the oldest in their group...
- ...also the one who had stolen her heart.
- His manly build couldn't be hid away in his warm looking leather jacket. She wanted to snuggle into those chest and have his built arms wrap around her and...
- "Hello? Earth to Lynn?" Noel snapped her fingers in front of Lynn's eyes as she finally snapped back into reality. Chris was now sitting and staring at her confusedly.
- "You can have the chocolate Lynn, it was yours to begin with."
- "Huh?" she let out in confusion as Noel whispered to her.
- "You're drooling."
- Her hands were as swift as lightening as she looked away and closed her eyes, embarrassed. She heard Chris let out a little laugh and she smiled
- Even his laugh sounds sexy!, She screamed in her head.
- "How'd your test go?" Jade asked and Chris immediately scowled which made the others laugh.
- He let out a smile as his head dropped "I mean, how could you do that to me? I just want to have a nice lunch and keep all unnecessary thought behind"
- "Haha! Your look definitely said 'I don't wanna talk about it"
- "You saw that and still went ahead to ask?" Adam said in disbelief.
- "I was simply trying to show my concern" Jade said and let out another laugh. "That was one priceless face you had on"
- Lynn smiled, then it dawned on her "By the way I don't see Aaron? didn't you come together?" She asked looking at Adam and the table fell silent.
- "Ah... well- he had something really urgent come up"
- Lynn went quiet as she totally picked on his hesitation.
- "Oh really? I never thought Aaron would actually miss a day of school. What could be so important?" She pushed as she was curious about his next answer.
- "Don't know. He didn't tell me anything." he answered as he bit into his sandwich.
- It was an obvious lie for Lynn. There's no way he didn't know why Aaron was absent. They were twins after all, and she could say she knew them more than anyone in the school. The brothers share anything and everything together, they were practically joined at the hip.
- She looked at the others, they weren't asking? So they definitely knew what was going on. What were they keeping from her, she wondered and suddenly felt left out.
- Simon was also absent from school. The little rat had promised he would explain what exactly happened last night. She couldn't wait to get him and make him spill whatever it was he knew.
- Her stomach rolled and she winced.
- "One minute, I'll be back" she got up to leave for the restroom.
- ****
- She came out of the stall with a wince as she rubbed her stomach that didn't settle but actually became worse. It didn't feel like something she ate but she somehow felt nauseous and irritated. She stared at the mirror as her complexion didn't look so good, she sighed as she decided to head straight to class and get some rest before lunch was over. She hated the smell of drugs so the infirmary was a no-no.
- She let go of the basin and her vision suddenly blurred up, her body lost every ounce of strength in her and she fell to the ground as her head came in contact with the door.
- "Ah!" She yelped as she held her head in pain, she struggled up and held the doorknob as her head pounded from the impact, another contact with the toilet floor was something she wasn't looking forward to. She couldn't tell what was going on with her, she'd never lost her strength before. She slowly let go of the doorknob as her strength slowly seeped back in.
- She walked out as she rubbed her head and carefully made her way to the classroom. The classroom was empty and she let out a sigh of relief, just what she needed at the moment. She was about to sit when she flinched at the loud bang that came from outside the window.
- "I'm gonna need you to calm down Adam. I get you're angry but we're at school. We can't call for unnecessary attention."
- Adam? Why is he out there and not at the cafeteria?
- Lynn could recognize the other voice. It was Simon.
- Was he in school all this while? Are they actually arguing? Lynn thought.
- She started to move closer to the window to tell them off and get hold of Simon.
- "You're telling me to be calm? How the hell am I supposed to be calm when Aaron could be killed any minute from now?!" Adam snarled and Lynn froze a few steps away from the window.
- What?
