“OH, MY VAMPIRE!!!”

I don’t know how I ever got into this trouble. The last time I remember, I was in the dark street walking back to my apartment. And then the next thing, when I woke up, I was in a cell, both of my wrists were chained in both arms of a single bed. I tried to look around, all I could see was dark. The only light that I could see was from the open window where a full moon is shown. I try to remember what really happened because my mind is blank, as if it's a wall that doesn’t want me to remember anything. My body stiff as someone opens the door. A silhouette of a big man enters. I can barely see his face, only his perfectly pointed nose and …. My eyes stopped seeing his eyes. It reflects from the light of the moon. A b****y red eyes. “You’re finally awake, my mademoiselle,” he said in a husky voice as if he had just woken up. “Where am I?” I ask in a panicked voice. He didn’t answer me, but he walked closer to the bed, didn’t even bother to look anywhere but in my eyes. “Shhhhh, I won’t hurt you. You just need to be an obedient kitten for now and stay like that for a while”. He said those words while he put away some strands of my hair in my face. “Who are you? And why did you bring me here?” I ask, confused, because I’m sure I don’t know him, especially his red eyes. I was still trying to look at his face, wishing it would be a little clearer. “You don’t have to know me for now, my Love; we will get there soon. For now, sleep.” My body stiffened as he got closer to my neck. I can feel the small kisses he planted in there. I was out of words, but my mind is full of restraint. I close my eyes tightly when …… Bang!!! “WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU’RE DOING BROTHER!!” I close my eyes once again. The lady that got inside the room shouted as if she had a megaphone in hand. “What the hell, Alice!” the man hissed back to the woman that called him brother. The silhouette of a woman looks at my position and points at me. “Do you want to be electrocuted?” She asks while still pointing at me. “You are not allowed to show up in front of her yet. She’s 16, for Pete's sake”. The woman utters with frustration. “I can’t wait that long anymore," the man said while looking at me, again with those red eyes, and now I can see a different emotion in it, longing… that is what I can see that makes me confuse even more. The woman sighs. “You have an agreement with Dad, and I’m sure you don’t want him to know what you are doing all this time,” she said and walked closer to me. “You’re one creepy man; you’ve been following her like a dog her whole life”. She said while looking at me. And with all of that I was confused. Has he been following me? Am I that beautiful to be followed? I heard a baritone laugh and looked at that his eyes were on me as well. “You don’t have any idea how beautiful you are, my love." He said while looking at me with those emotions in eyes I couldn’t name. “Stop reading her mind, i***t. Step back, I will erase her memory again and bring her back to her apartment”. The woman goes closer to me and looks at me in the eyes. She said, “Again.” This means this is not the first time. I man moves closer to me as well and what shocks me is when he kisses me on my forehead. “We will be together again soon, Adelaine,” he whispered in my ears, with a voice of longing. I looked at the woman, with a pity emotion in her eyes for that man. The man distanced himself from me, and to my surprise I felt pain in my heart, as if I was going to lose someone again. A tear fell in my eyes. The man leaves the room without even looking back, and the woman heaved a deep sigh. “Everything might be blurry at this moment, but one day all of those questions will be answered. For now, leave your life without worries and forget whatever is happening here. We will wait for your coming back, Adelaine”. And with that she kissed my forehead and another tear fell from my eyes as darkness took over. “My goodness Ingrid, wake up, I'm going to be late again!” I heard a friend of mine's voice, that’s Violet. I opened my eyes, and then I felt a pang of pain in my head. I look at someone who is in her cross arm standing in front of my bed. “Huh! Don’t look at me like that, get up, we're going to be late,” she shouted and made me smile, but my smile vanished when the pain crossed my head again. Not really a good morning for me. We were half running going into our first subject because, damn! It’s already 8:00 a.m. “I’m going to kill you, Ingrid, if we get scolded.” She was shouting while running. That makes me laugh because she’s carrying five books. This bookworm can forget everything but not her books for sure. “SORRY!!” I shouted to make her hear me, but while I’m still laughing, of course. We reached our destination but, of course, were coughing while catching our breaths. “Ms. Violet Marquez and Ms. Ingrid Dela Torre, your late.” Violet and I looked at each other. How dare us forget that we will welcome our new classroom advisor today? I shut my eyes and looked straight to ask for forgiveness. But Oh, Dear God, why is a Greek God standing in front of us? An epitome of perfection, from his electric blue eyes, to his pointed nose, to those kissable and lovable lips and with those perfect jaws. Damn! Is he really a teacher or a model? “Done checking me out, Ms. Ingrid.” I swallowed hard and looked at Violet, who didn’t move an inch. “Sorry for being late sir." I uttered in a low voice. I heard him clear his throat and take a deep breath. “Please, don’t be late next time. Go back to your respective seats”. He just said and turned his back from us. We sit our asses in our seats and I look at Violet. “Is he for real?” she asks. I laughed at her and just shook my head. I guess this nerd finally found a crush. “Once again, good morning, everyone. I am Syth Salvatore, and I will be your homeroom teacher for a whole year, as well as your math teacher. If you want to ask me something, you can ask me anything now before we start our class”. He said in a serious voice. “Sir, do you have a girlfriend?” Pamela asks out of the blue. She is well-known as someone who flirts with everyone. “That is too personal to ask Ms. Santiago, but then let me answer that. I was waiting for someone to come back to me. And she’s my future wife”. Everyone in the classroom yells in disappointment, while for me, my heart is racing. “I’ll be waiting for you, my Mademoiselle,” a whisper comes in my ear while Sir Syth is looking directly at me. It feels like there is something between us that I can’t name. Makes me ask myself if I know him, because he seems familiar. In every gesture he makes.
