[S.C, Bloodlines. CH 2]

“Couldn’t you have just stayed in the room with the other two and enjoyed the movie” The redhead shook her head.

“Probably not it was getting a little crowded in there” Amelya tried to lighten the mood a bit and got a giggle from the vampire girl.

“So why Gabe?” Sam asked still holding on to her throat.

“Well that’s not really your business but since you’re gonna die anyway.” Her face softened up a bit as she thought about it. “He was really nice to me, unlike everyone else at school”

“You realize that I’m his sister and he’d probably never forgive you for that” Amelya shook her head, while a door opened in the hallway and footsteps moved toward Gabe’s room.

The door opened and in walked their mom. Average height, sleepy eyed and a hundred percent not nearly understanding the situation.

“Hey girls. Why you in Gabe’s room?” Her mom asked, rubbing her eyes. “And where’s your brother??”

“He forgot to tell you that he slept over at my house with my two brothers “ The vampire girls voice was weird and we only watched as mom shook her head.

“That boy always forgets to tell me things” She yawned. “You three better get back to your room missy. And nothing of your brothers better come up missing.” She shook her finger before noticing that she’d never met the girl. “Have I met you before?”

“I’m Lexi, you met my mom a few weeks ago at the grocery store.” Again a weird tone of voice but mom just accepted it and went back to bed.

“How did you?” Amelya asked.

“Vampires can make humans do as they are told or believe what we say. It’s just a power we have no matter what” Lexi stood up.”So I guess I’m crashing the sleepover “

“Great” Sam mumbled as they all set off for Amelya’s room.

Sam found her sleeping bag and cuddled up on the floor, Sally and Maddness had fallen asleep cuddled up on the couch and Lexi just watched them as she sat onto Amelya’s bed.

“So no death tonight?” Amelya joked, flopping down onto her bed a foot or so away from Lexi.

“Guess not. Your mom was pretty cool.”

“Of course saved by my sleepy mom” She giggled.” If she’d known, I’d never live it down”

“Sounds like my mom. Eternity isn’t fun when it’s spent being nagged at”

“I can only imagine.” Amelya mumbled looking over at her sleeping friends. “Thanks for not killing us”

“I was just playing, gotta wipe your minds though. Cuz nobody can know about us” Lexi shrugged.

“So what happens at a sleepover? Never been to one”

“Well you missed the board games and movie. Now I guess all there’s left to do is sleep”

“Well, no need for sleep. So I’ll just erase and go” Lexi stood up and looked at the other three. “You wanna go first or last?”

“Last I guess. Sure you don’t wanna just stay and watch something?”

“Your brothers turning ceremony is tonight, I can’t miss it. Then he’ll be part of our world”

“So I’ll no longer have a brother then.” Amelya mumbled. “Is it possible that I can go….. then you just wipe my memory”

“It’s not like twilight little one. There will be hundreds of blood suckers there. I know he wouldn’t want you to be a midnight snack”

“Please…. He really didn’t fit in, I just want to know you’re people will take care of him”

“Fine.” After that she spoke to each of them, adding a bit extra to her chat with Sally and Maddness.

Soon she’d thrown me over her shoulders and we were off. Wizzing through the city like a jet. Everything flying by fast but almost in slow motion. In seconds we had crossed our town and rushed up into the mountains.

A huge stone building was etched into this side. Nothing like she’d ever seen before. Stopping at the entrance she fell off. Tumbling to the dirt, before sending pizza and pop all over the ground in three waves of puke.

“Everyone always pukes” A male voice called from the doorway. A black haired boy stepped down the stone etched walkway. His eyes a fair grey color but his smile showed perfectly white teeth and a pair of fangs.

“Jayden back off. She’s not a snack” He stopped walking down and through up his hands in surrender.

“I promise. I mean no ill will to this maiden” He huffed and bit, coming closer. “Though she is……”

As their eyes met Lexi could feel the need in them both. “Fuck” She hissed to herself as another vamp joined the fray.

“Dear brother. Why is your pulse so….” Cleo stopped just short of the two. And stepped right up behind the girl.

Rubbing her hand against her shoulders, she looked deep into her eyes. Before planting a kiss on her soft lips.

“Mine!” The twins hissed in unison.

“Double fuck” Lexi was at Cleo’s side as Jayden rushed his sister. Bloodlust filled his now red and black irises.

“It only makes sense that twins would be drawn to one person” A man with a Kane walked quietly out of thin air.

“Uncle Sampson. I’m sorry for my friends rude….”

“You have just introduced them to their pair. Their actions are fair.” He pulled his black hat off, showing off his flowing silver river like hair. “This is going to surely be a long winter”

“She’s only here to watch her brothers ceremony. Then she’s going back to her normal life and friends” Lexi pulled Amelya out of the grasps of the twins.

“No” Cleo’s facial expression changed to nearly weeping eyes.

“You can not deny them their true pair” Lexi’s mothers voice spoke from the stairs. Amelya flinched back at the sound of her voice causing both twins to rush to her aide.

“I knew this was a bad idea” Lexi mumbled as her mother swept her bright red dress and stepped down to them.

“This human girl is protected by house Emerald. She will not be harmed or whomever caused it will die a thousand deaths” She reached out her hand to Amelya. “I’m sorry it’s such a ruckus. Let us get you ready for your brothers ceremony”

“If I may, your grace I shall not leave her side” Cleo vowed to Lexi’s mother.

“Neither will Lexi, but you keep your hands to yourself. Your brother should mind his too. But you all may escort her”

It was final.

“So I guess your friends aren’t the only ones who are on the parade” Lexi joked with Amelya as the kiss caused her to blush.

“Have you seen her though. Anyone would be gay for her”

“I’ve seen her for most of my life” Lexi chuckled. “Never seen her kiss anyone like that. Guess your souls bi though. Cuz Jayden’s yours too”

“Isn’t that weird” Amelya asked, pushing closer to Lexi only for the twins to walk up the stairs faster.

“I’m sure y’all will figure it out. Enough about y’all. Time for my pair to join us”

“Wait, that’s what happened with my brother?”

“Yeah…. Sorry it’s hard to explain to a human if they’ve never seen or felt it”

“So wait. I’ll get turned?”

“That’s up to your thruple?”Lexi laughed.
