Goddess Gave Me You

F Friends

"No, I don't want to hear what you have to say! Shut up! Shut up! Just shut the hell up!"

Why wouldn't she get the hint that I wasn't going to listen to anything she had to say. Everything out of her mouth was a damn lie and I despise liars. Hell I wish that she would stop chasing after me. My inner wolf wanted to rip her throat out so she couldn't tell another lie ever again, but that's too harsh.

"Ari, Im sorry."

Her face was flushed red. From the guilt? No, probably from trying to keep up with me. Why did I ever become friends with her in the first place? Oh yeah, Julien. Just wait till I'm alone in my room. Julien is going to get it.

All the maids made a path way for me as I went storming up the stairs. I turned to look Nicole in the eyes. Growling I spoke to her low and slow.

"If you know what's good for you, you would leave my presences as well as my house. I don't need you as a friend. The only friend I need is Julien."

"Who's Julien, Ari?" Nicole asked frightened.

Slinging my arm out in front of me; I point to the door and snarled. "OUT!"

Nicole went scampering down the stairs and right out the front door. He is no concern of hers. Still apologizing as she left my house. As if I would actually accept it. Nicole and I do not have a friendship any more and for good reason to. But I'll get to that later. I walked the short distance to my room. I did my normal routine. Shut and lock my door. Check. Next I tossed my heavy book bag on my floor and then I flung myself into my bed. I buried my head deep into the duvet. I inhaled deeply and let it out into the duvet. Why is life so difficult. I sat up and lazy walked to my closet. I changed out of my school uniform and into his sweatpants with a tank top. I was cozy and now ready to call onto Julien.

I sat criss-crossed on my bed as I took hold of the grey crystal and pressed it to my lips. In an instant I saw Julien pop up in front of me. I was used to this but not used to seeing him in nothing but a towel. I could smell the freshness of him. He smelled like old spice body wash. It suited him well.

Julien turned around and stared at me.

"What?"

"You called as soon as I got out of the shower." He stated as if I knew his routine.

"Well excuse me, I didn't know that Ju. Because if I did I would of ..."

Julien threw up his hand. Telling me to stop.

"Don't finish that sentence Arianna. We are two different kinds, well species. We couldn't have any type of relationship together."

I looked at Julien as if he grew an extra head. I giggled at his nonsense.

"You do know that I was going to say 'I would of waited till you were dressed'. Where is your mind at today Ju?"

"It's back in my bed Ari. Vampires do actually sleep and I am tired." He exaggerated his pout to show me that he was indeed tired.

"Why so tired, late night vampire business?" I hid my face behind the blanket trying to act stealthy like Julien. Julien raised an eyebrow at me and just chuckled at me like he always did.

"Before I answer you, I need to put on some appropriate clothing. Is my pile of clothes still under the bottom rack of your shirts?"

I gave my head a nod and Julien was gone in a flash. I heard him tossing clothes behind him, probably messing up my neat closet.  I walked into my closet and stood behind Julien. Putting my hand on my hip, I tapped Julien on the shoulder with the other. He looked at me like 'what'.

"You mess it up, you clean."

Julien just rolled his icy grey eyes while tossing clothes over his shoulder. He was hunched over in a pair of tight black briefs.

My, my Julien's body was magnificent, but I knew he would never see me as anything but a close friend. I mean that's all I could ask for. He was there for me from the beginning and I would never risk that because I have some s****l attraction towards Julien.

Dropping my thoughts, I focused my attention back onto Julien. He now had on a pair of sweatpants with a lose plain t-shirt. He walked out of the closet after he fixed the clothes he messed up. As he walked passed me, he wrapped his large muscular arms around my waist and tossed me onto his solid shoulder.

"Julien, put me down please."

I pouted half heartedly. I was still exhausted from my fight with Nicole to put up a big fuss with Julien right now.

He walked to the bed before setting me onto it. He then cuddled his head and face into my stomach as he groaned.

"Ari, I'm really sleepy."

I giggled at his silly behavior, as I began to rub his back slowly.

"Get into the bed Ju and you can sleep for as long as you desire."

He flashed his fangs at me, as he smiled a cute sleepy smile at me. His eyes were heavy with sleep and I could see it. I lied beside Julien. He curled into my side when he felt my body heat. Cozying up to me, laying his head on my breast. I rubbed his back slowly while I traced over his left arm's tattoo.

I could hear his breathing lighten to a slow pattern. He was already asleep, on my chest and I loved this feeling. I loved the wanted feeling. Like he wanted to fall asleep on me instead of going back to his house. I felt like I had a chance. A small chance, but it was still something.

At times like this, I craved to know if Julien felt the same. If he felt that ounce of attraction towards me. That pull I feel when he's around, or when he's not around.

I might just be wishful thinking but just what if I am right about all of this? Would Julien even feel the same?

I exhaled a long breath of air before I decide this was enough thinking for the day. I closed my eyes and let sleep take over me.
