Divine Creatures

Libby Wilson POV I worked my whole life, planning my future out, never getting into trouble or going to parties with my friends, no smoking, no drinking. Always being at the very top on my classes. Never showing my emotions because I always had to be the strong one for my family Just to settle for some mediocre university I've never even heard of. Why does this really have to be my life? Excuse my mouth by the way my dad curses... A LOT. After spending the entire road trip complaining and mopping with my dad and my best friend Ty (who I've known since I was about 4 years old in Preschool. She knows everything about me and I know everything about her. She barely leaves my side since my mom died. No matter where I am she always sense when I am hurting. Most guys in high school called us lesbians because we never dated anyone but always stayed together . Nobody has ever been worth the heartbreak to be honest). We finally arrive at these long gate doors (it kind of looks like a grave yard entrance). Giant thuja trees side by side go way down on both sides. Red flag are burning in my chest right now but I keep quiet in the backseat as a voice comes out the speaker box "Can I help you?" "Yes we are here for orientation." My dad says "Please speak your confirmation code" "0297 and 7894" he responds just before the big doors open to allow us to drive in. It took us about another ninety minutes to reach the actual school. My heart dropped into my stomach when I saw the school. A gorgeous limestone built castle sitting in the middle of the biggest and best garden I ever seen. "Wow" I mumble "yeah I told you" Ty smirked as I rolled my eyes and all of us get out the car. "Hello I'm Ms. Russel and welcome to RiverWood University" a soft but stern voice says as we all turn around from get our bags out the trunk. There stands a woman with long ebony shiny hair wearing a off the shoulder long sleeve jumpsuit. She's welcoming but scary at the same time. "You can leave you bags there they will be in your rooms by the time the tour is over" she says as we all nod and obey her. She walks us around the entire campus. It took us about an hour but she brought us to this townhouses. They are lined up (like one of these creepy movies where if even one thing is different it has to die). She opens door 3 and there is this girl sitting on the couch.. She has glasses on eating a bowl of chips with her feet prop up on the table. "Uh-Mm" Ms. Russel clears her throat. She jumps so hard at the site of Ms. Russel, she spills the chips every where. I couldn't help but giggle at the absolute horror in her eyes like she just got caught watching porn. "Ms. Amy Thomas this is Ms. Libby Wilson she is your new room mate". Ms. Russel ignores her idiocy. "I'll leave you two to make better acquaintance" she says before leaving me in the creepiest area of the whole campus. "Hello I'm Libs father" my daddy says extending his hand. "Didn't you know I was coming... I mean didn't some one bring my things to my room?" I say in a bitchy tone. "Y-yeah but Ms. Russel still creeps me out" she says as she shakes my dads hand. I walk over to her "here, let me help you then maybe you can show me to my room and teach me the ropes around here" I say smiling. "Ok sure" Amy says "something different with you" "of course there is I'm one of a kind... never seen before... rare quality material you know" I say then smile obnoxiously. After my dad is done organizing my room he lets a few tears fall, kisses me on my forehead and make me promise to come see him on holidays and vacations. "Promise.... Or I'm coming down here" he threatens. "Ok I promise" I giggle and hugs him goodbye. Tomorrow is my first day and I just wanna rest and be prepared. I also want to look for a job around here. I mean I know my tuition is paid in full but I still want extra money just in case, you know. Don't want to ask my dad when he already sacrificed so much. I wish he would've sacrificed more so I could've went to Yale but.... Sike naw I'm just kidding I'm highly graceful I even get to go to college. "Rise and shine my sweet honey bee-" my roommate sings and jumps on my bed. Then jumps off and walks towards the door. "You know I really don't f*****g like you" I say and throw a pillow at her. "I didn't want you to be late on your first day" she says sarcastically smiling and walks out my room. After getting dressed I smell bacon and damn near slip in the hallway trying to hurry towards the smell. "Mmm" "We should hurry so we don't want to be late... I don't want them to cancel the click party" Amy announce. "Click party?" I ask curiously. "Yeah every time we get newcomers we are allow to have a click party to see it you are mated..." she says nonchalantly. "Mated? What the hell is that supposed to mean? I'm not mating with nobody m. I'm still a virgin" I say with pure disgust. "Well you don't have to go all the way" Amy giggles "Don't you want to see if you have a mate in this school" she said smiling so innocently. "Your bat s**t crazy... no for real... I'm not going to a party to find a boyfriend.. but I will go to have fun though" I smile devilishly and wiggle my eyebrows. I am walking to my first class with Amy and suddenly Ty appears. It use to be really creepy but I've got use to her popping out of the blue. I give her a hug then introduce her to Amy. She introduces me to Jasmine (her roommate). "You are different" Jasmine says. I smile she seems really cool. Looking like the Brady bunch walking in the school. "I hate that we have to wear these uniforms. I can't stand out like this". I lean over to say in Ty ear. "You will trust me" Ty response was motivational. Our first class is a nature class and I am actually enjoying it. We are talking about the 4 elements and it's very captivating. After statistics I went to the gym to punch the bag a little then I took a run around the track. I had to build up a sweat because I didn't workout yesterday. Ty would've been pissed off if I sat around doing nothing for the past two hours while she was in class. On the walk to the showers, I'm wiping the sweat off the back of my neck with my towel then boom.... I walk right into a wall.. how embarrassing. I'm glad I'm the only one in the hall... oh no. Opening my eyes I realize I really just ran into a person. My eyes are met by a gorgeous pair of blue eye that look like ocean puddles. I just want to dive right in. Like the moment I do it'll take all my pain away. "Uh-hm" he clears his throat snapping me out of whatever trance I was in. "H-hi I'm..." so nervous I forgot my own f*****g name. Is he giggling? No no no embarrassed beyond repair I swear I ran out of there like flash. I've never been the shy type but just breathing the same air as him made my heart skip plenty of beats. To many for my liking. It's best I stay as far away from him as possible. Headed to the cafe where I see Ty. She's calling Amy over to sit down so I thought I'd join them. Amy: "So the party is at 8 of course bring a change of clothes just in case you guys have a mate the you all can go running together for the first time." She says like she already planning weddings. I damn near choked on my food at the mention mating again. What the in thee actual f**k. Libby: " What the hell is wrong with you? Nobody is f*****g us tonight.. nobody" I practically scream at her lucky no one turned around. I've e had enough embarrassment for one day. Amy: "I told you... you don't have to make if official... yet.. but don't you wanna be clai...." She looks at Ty who is gesturing her to stop talking. Libby: "What's happening? What don't I know?" Looking at Ty " it's nothing don't stress about it" she says nonchalantly. Now I definitely know something is going on. "What is it? Tell me..." I giggle. But no one response and continue eating... bitches. I roll my eyes in direction different dropping the conversation and they land right on that guy from earlier with ocean puddles for eyes and my heart falls into my stomach. Looking down at my food my seat suddenly feels like it was on fire. Jumping up from my seat and fleeing the cafe. How embarrassing ughh I just want to lick him all over and taste what his past was like is that so much to ask for. Later that night we arrive at a party in a big ass mansion. Everything is dark but still very colorful almost like a rave except there is no glow in the dark face paint. Immediately after walking in.. my extra set of clothes (Amy forced me to bring) is taking out my hand and he says enjoy the party. Amy brings everybody drinks. Jasmine introduces us to her boyfriend Jamal. Jamal: "Nice you meet you guy" he says with a gorgeous smile. She really has great taste because he look like he's been crave to perfection from God he's self. He pulls her to the floor to dance after the small chat is over. One hour later On my fourth cup of whatever this is in my cup. I spot Ty blushing in the corner with a guy he looks like a sexy nerd. I knew she liked them buff the way she makes me workout back home everyday. Super sexy I send her a thumbs up when she looks my way. Her smile grows even wider. I guess I'll follow her lead and give someone a chance. This guy has been checking me out all night so what the hell. But I will not be "mating" (is what Amy calls s*x). They have lost they minds I love being a virgin (the lies I tell myself). I really want to be in love with I lose it to be honest. I bit my lip and tuck my hair behind my ear smiling at the ground. The guy walks over to me. "Hi I'm Neal" he smiles his chocolate eyes are so beautiful. "Libby" I respond "Do.. you.. want to dance?" I asked or else we was going to be standing there like two deers caught in a head light. One hour later I'm pretty sure I'm toasted. I've be dance with this guy with what feels like all night. He has been whispering in my ear since we started dancing trying to get me out this party. He's kind of annoying but I'm having so much fun I'm ignoring his shenanigans. I take the last gulp from my cup and look into the crowd and see puddles in the entranceway. He so freaking sexy. He makes my heart stop every time I see him. I love that I actually do have feelings like this for someone but I hate it as well I feel so weak and scared. The moment our eyes connect he smiles at me. My God why did he have to smile. I run through the door to the right of me and I am safe in a quiet hallway. I take a few deep breaths. When I look up and Neal is in front of me. "You ok? What's wrong?" He ask pushing my hair off my cheek. I smirk "I'm more then fine wanna see" I wrap my hands around his neck and pull him into my lip opening my mouth so that our tongues play tug or war. He travels his lips over to my cheek down to my neck. He picked me up and I can't help but to let out a slight moan. He travels back up to my lips and grips my thighs with both hand. Suddenly.. he drops me. What the hell?
