The next day, I find myself waking up in the bedroom I fell asleep in. I feel someone rubbing my back. I look up and come face to face with Count Dracula. Then, I remember the night before. I moan.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAhPUSYlel
"Ah, someone's awake, I see." He smiles.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAX3HzRqUtD
"Am I still—"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXDfDlCjEf
"Yes, you are. I am too." He sighs. "I'm not worried about it."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8flxF5lsk6
I try getting up and fall back down. "I need—"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOlXGJKZ4E
"Oh, you'll be fine. I'll take you home when I'm ready."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nJPnwxJxo
"When you're ready?" I groan. "That won't be until I'm a fricken undead."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VerpWzVwl
"No. It probably will be tonight."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzHuf3M0zk
"Key word: probably." I sigh.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWFuuAUedk
"If you don't shut up, I'll do what I did last night again."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxgXLC9kkg
I look at him horrified. "No. Uh-uh."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBHX4H5vp0
He chuckles. "Then shut up. Or I will."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKUj8PEKGx

That night, at 7:17, after dinner, he takes me back to town. Once right outside the café, he asks me,746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDof82H9Qi
"Where's your house at?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xSbiZHTSp
"Go down this street, take a right, down that street, take the second left, and my house should be the last one on the left."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73Q02eQ9Wa
"That's easy."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXTBI1nJfE
"And I mean, last one, last one. Like, it's about two miles from the last one of the ones that are close together."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8Cp9NRFJj
"Still easy." He grins.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8YfbIXMjv
"You weirdo."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0xzkKP6hO
He laughs, obviously amused with himself.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4n5SoCeSow
"Do you realize that I don't find you even half as amusing as you think you are?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5w0UdIG0GF
"Ah, come on. I'm not amusing to you? You don't think I'm jocular, perhaps?" He chuckles.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkT46RO05oi
"No. You are not amusing to me and you are not jocular. End of discussion."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaLOIXaqVo
"Oh, please. Don't."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeorD6JEIY
I sigh.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknfGLVHMxr
"What school do you go to?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMw4ZT1CbuX
I groan. "You're not going to shut up, are you?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWB5nrWsQH
He laughs. "No. Isn't that obvious to you?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOM08ke4GfF
I sigh. "I go to the Josef Haltrich High School. Happy?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXucaKdRDim
"No. What grade are you in?" He smiles.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHdjIY5Svg
"Right now, I've got to finish my Junior year. Then I'll be in my Senior year. Now are you—"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksiJPPCIfB
"No. Definitely not." He pulls into the driveway. "Is your mom home?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxcFcnDBpz
"I doubt it. She's probably at a party" I look at the empty driveway. "Her car's not in the driveway, so what do you think?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUqKTFavHk
"She's not home. So …" He smiles.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YJDqOtGl8
"So? I don't—what are you doing?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaG3B3Ub53
He leans in and pulls me into a kiss. He lets go and I kiss him back. I unbuckle my seatbelt and climb over the console. I sit in his lap with my back facing the steering wheel. 746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAf48MxX0ml
"What was that for?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUZKD7GALY
"I don't know." He smiles. "Does that matter?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgjR5sk7AM
"Maybe."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCI3E0Kjnm
"Ah, copycat."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEj1ld4clh
"Oh, shut up."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePMfuhi29X
He chuckles and his eyes glitter.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8e9Cga7rEj
I lean in and kiss him. He pulls me closer and kisses my neck.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKhwyZMLrn
"My Lord, what am I doing? I can't help myself. You, a seventeen almost eighteen-year-old girl, is somehow irresistible." He moans.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IjbADXL1q
"Mine. You're mine."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsXlrrpWm6
"I don't belong to anyone but myself."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlJsbYH04T
"Not anymore. You're mine now."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXzkHmm0dy
He shakes his head. "No." He kisses my neck again.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaKEd4soT5
I moan and pull him closer. I feel him slowly open his mouth and I feel the indent of his sharp teeth on my sensitive skin. I pull him closer and he sinks his fangs into my neck. I cry out and feel him draining me. I go unconscious.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPRmwWKQEt

The next morning, I wake up to someone leaning over me. 746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmMtODfmVQ
"Boo!"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSPYmTHR9C
I jump up and fall out of bed. I groan. "Seriously?"
"Sí, señorita. Very necessary. We got school, idiot." She grins.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wTbyz1wFf
"Oh, it's you. I hate you, Charlotte."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeLRxzJTN8
"You missed the Valentine's party at the high school on Saturday."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNCuAEaTPE
"Valentine's Day was on Saturday?" I gasp. "Today's Monday?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsRl7oeRKi
"Yes and yes."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWafEEA1yFu
"Oh, shoot!" I jump up and moan, rubbing my neck, remembering last night. The whole weekend really. I quickly get ready and head out the door with Charlotte, grabbing my things on the way.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2IfE4cjkR
We get to school and head to our lockers, which are side by side. Thankfully. We get our things and head to homeroom.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJUYovWBG0
Later, at lunch, we head outside to eat and she tells me of her weekend.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuNVrYe8MC
"I went out on a date Friday night. He asked me to the Valentine's dance and I said yes. Then, on Saturday, we went to the dance. On Sunday, he went to, um, Bistritz and I went to the mall to shop, and … Yeah." She sighs. "What did you do over the weekend?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjUyi1brJC
"Oh. Uh … nothing, really."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmowundRNyA
"Then how come you weren't at your house when I went to see if you were going to the Valentine's dance and again to see if you wanted to go to the mall with me, but you weren't there."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Iivy7eMmY
"Oh, yeah. I went to the funeral home on Saturday and that's really it."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwU7d5IBtT
"What did you do at the funeral home?"
"Oh. Nothing, really. Just help with some preparations. The usual."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJtedkLCdg
"You aren't telling the truth, are you?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7j8HbrvKP
"Oh. Fine. At the funeral home, we examined the body of Count Dracula that didn't seem to be decaying at all. My mom and the funeral director left to get some information or whatever and I stayed at the funeral home to watch the body. He came back to life and drank my blood. Then, I went unconscious. I woke up later and I was in Castle Dracula. Dracula picked me up and took me up the stairs. I fell asleep and he made me stay on Sunday, too. Then he brought me home Sunday night and I don't know anything else."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKErrBTOZc8
"You're leaving something out. I know you are."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5NYvUlabZ
I moan and put my face in my hands. "I don't … want to."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gGDSY4xQL
She puts her hand on my arm and gently squeezes. "Nikki, you know you can trust me with anything."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdg9GMysbH
"Oh, alright." I pull my legs up close and rest my chin on my knees. I sigh. "Alright. Here goes. Saturday night, I had romance with Count Dracula. It went too far and we, um … I don't want to say it."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2zb8MO5oS
"You mean, you had 'you know what' with a centuries old vampire?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiglpPZJUax
I nod, tears strolling down my face. I turn to face her, turn my head, and pull back my hair. 746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1ukJPhsm2
She gasps. "Oh my God." Her hands fly to cover her mouth. "Oh. My. God." She looks at me, horrified.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTD6VsfTlGF
"I s-swear. I c-c-couldn't stop h-him. He was t-too strong. He's just so s-s-seductive. It's hard to r-resist him." I sniffle. "And he wants me as his b-bride."
"What? Your bride? Why?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxv67Zfx4HC
"I don't know."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TPx4nOf7Q
"Oh. Hey. Come on. Let's go to the bathroom."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QJDaDDqVm
"Why?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AzRU5HVzq
"Just come on."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCJW4kTbGQ
She stands up, puts on her backpack, and throws away her trash on the way back to the school. I get up and follow her, doing the same thing.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKt8wKs9xi
We get to the bathroom and we squeeze into the biggest stall. I set my backpack on the floor and sit down on the toilet. She sets her bag down beside mine and locks the stall door. She digs around in her bag and pulls something out. She hands it to me.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNEvm3Otw7
"What's this?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8u0Oo4SBv9
"It's a pregnancy test."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTa8b3QqWf
"How do you use it?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz43BzHWQwk
"You urinate in something and put it in. You take it out and wait a little. Then you check it." She hands me a cup.
"Oh, gosh." I sigh and take the cup. "Alright. You're so lucky I have to use the bathroom anyway."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5td8ZcICc
"Okay. I'll stand against the door, so someone won't see the both of us and think we're doing something we shouldn't. We have about fifteen minutes till the bell rings for the end of lunch. So we should be fine."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpT9RBfNhJ6
I do everything she says and cover my eyes as I pull it out of the cup. I sit and wait a few minutes. I lift it up and peek at it. I shriek and cover my mouth, dropping it on the floor.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LADTJNzeV
She looks up from her phone and looks at me. "You okay?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHK7lChm7Rb
"No!"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJH9vu3XESm
She picks up the stick thing and looks at it. She gasps. She slides down the wall and looks up at me. "Oh God. What are you going to tell your mom?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIrk4sUKM5
"I don't know. Most of all, what am I going to tell him?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgp3y3yAAM
"That's true. Him most of all."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzq4p5ZB2C
Suddenly the bell rings to end lunch. We get up and get our things. We head to our next class.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1R83HN1OJ
