Why does she keep doing this? She keeps chasing. Maybe I should just tell her that it's me. I know she knows already but I just can't seem to tell her the truth.
"I'll take care of this guys." I say to Grace and Asher.
I make my way to the door and open it. My mother is staring at me. She tries to make her way in and I shut that down fast. I push her out along with myself and close the door behind me. I stand there with my arms crossed.
"Can I help you?" I say in a mean voice. She just stares at me.
"Uh hello! I'm speaking to you!" I snarl out.
"Jessica, I know it's you. I can see it in your eyes. I feel it. What happened to you?" she says softly. Here we go. I guess I should just tell her something.
"Yes it's me and that's all you need to know. I mean I don't even know why I have to explain anything to you. You're not even my real mother." She shoots me a look and I can tell my words hurt her. I don't care though. I know I should but I don't.
"But I am your mother! You ARE my daughter!" she says. "NO I AM NOT! You have lied to me since I was 8 years old. I'm not yours. I know everything. I know that Grace gave me to you because you wanted me. I know that I was never truly your daughter!" I screamed at her. She looks terrified. I try to calm myself down. "Look.... I don't care about it anymore. But I won't be calling you mom anymore and I won't be talking to you anymore. There is literally no need for you or your shit family in my life any longer. So if you can kindly stop dropping by unannounced that would be great!" I shoot out. I didn't mean for any of that to come out I'm just so angry. She has tears in her eyes and she is just staring at me. "I'm sorry. I'm just angry right now. My life has been crazy since I moved out and I have alot to do. I have a big trip to make to Romania. How about I stop by when I get back and I will tell you what I can." I tell her while putting my hand on her shoulder. She grabs my hand.
"Fine. I'll be expecting you when you return. Then I expect you to answer my questions." She says with a stern voice. I don't think she understands that she is no longer my mother to me. "Look, I'm going to say this nicely ONE more time. YOU are NOT my MOTHER! So stop acting like you are. I don't care that you raised me for 16 years. You lied to me for 16 years! I know you are not my mother. I learned that already. So cut the bullshit with me and don't talk to me like im a child. I'm not. So I will answer any question I feel necessary. And you don't get to ask all the questions. I have some questions I expect you to answer! And believe me, you won't have a choice." I was screaming so fast that I lost my breath. I'm not even sure if she understood all of it.
Mother shoots me an angry look and then nods. She turns on her heels and makes her way back home. The fucking sight of her makes me so angry now. I shouldn't even still be thinking of her as mother. I'll start calling her by her name I guess. Tracy. Yup that will surely piss her off. I laugh outloud at the thought.
I make my way back in and shut the door behind me. I know Grace and Asher have been peeking out the blinds the whole time. I seen them a few different times.
"Did you guys enjoy the show? It's bad enough Tracy won't leave me alone, now I have you guys not respecting my privacy." I say giggling to myself on the inside.
"Oh uh....uh... w-we were...we w-were just...." Asher says shaking. I stop him "Ash, can I call you Ash?" He nods. "Ash, im just fucking with you. Don't be such a pussy. I won't hurt you." I finish giving him a playful smile. He visibly stops shaking and gives me a smile. "Well tonight has been more than what I planned for. It's like three in the morning and I am so fucking exhausted! I think I'm going to get a bag of blood and go sleep for five hours. We can leave around eight or eight-thirty. Either or, I'm ready. I'll see you guys in a few hours." I say then walk to Grace and give her a big kiss. I turn to Ash and give him a big hug and peck on the cheek.
I make my way upstairs with the blood. I get in my room and sit on the bed. I extend both sets of fangs and pierce the bag and drink the thick liquid fast. I get up and do my nightly routine. I actually feel tired for once. Maybe I'll get some good sleep! I go to the bed and plop down hard. Nice. I drift off....
I wake up to Grace shaking me. I open and close my eyes a few times then get up and sit on the edge of the bed. Man I could use some blood. "It's about eight now. Figured I would get you up so you could drink some blood and we finish packing and get on the road." Grace says coming to sit next to me. She throws her arm around my shoulder and I lean into her and give her a kiss.
"Okay, I just need a minute to get ready and I will be down shortly."
Grace nods and heads downstairs. I get dressed into black jean shorts that are a little to short. My ass hangs out of them just slightly. I throw on a white tank. My fit stomach shows and the tank falls just above my belly. My chest bursts out of it as well. I put some black and white vans on and start to the bathroom and start brushing my teeth. I extend my fangs and make sure I get them nice and clean.
I head downstairs with the others. Once I get into the kitchen I grab a bag of blood and head to the living room. I extend my fangs and bite into the bag downing it. I take a seat in the middle of Grace and Ash. I turn and look at Grace then to Ash and smile.
"Are you guys ready for this?!" I say excitedly. They both just nod and smile. I'm actually super excited for this. I don't remember my travels as a child so I feel like I have never actually traveled before. I bet Romania will be beautiful!
We decide to travel by car until we can't anymore then Ash will call for a plane to take us the rest of the way. We get our stuff into Grace's car and take off. I don't know what to think or how to feel at this moment so I try to keep my mind clear but it's hard. Everything I have dealt with the last few days have been just incredibly insane. This shit doesn't happen to normal people. Like at all. I don't know if it's regret I feel or something else. If I hadn't of wanted this, none of this would of happened. I wouldn't have left who I thought was my mom and I wouldn't of knew about Ash or any of the norvamps as Ash calls them. Fuck I really just need to focus on myself and thinking about how I need to train for this.
"What is the first plan of action when we get there?" I think I startled both of them with my question. I'm not sure if I was the only one in thought or not but it seems like I wasn't.
"We get you to one of the best vampire trainers around. This is someone who is very close with me and she will help us every bit of the way. Her name is Eclipse. She has a place we can stay as well while we are there. We have to keep what you are on the low so no one knows you are there. It is important you make sure you don't tell anyone of what you are. Eclipse is the only one that knows." Ash says.
"We can trust this norvamp?" I say with concern in my voice.
"Absolutely, she knew your parents and she was extreamly close with them. She knew about you and helped with their getaway from the cities of Romania. She helped build the very hut you lived in." Ash says with a very sad look on his face. I choose to go quite after that. Even though I don't remember that moment, I feel the pain that comes with it.
I wonder what my parents were like. Not my vampire parents, but the people who gave me to them. How did that come to be? Why did they give me up?I need answers and if my vampire parents can't give me them.....well....well I'll just have to figure those out on my own!
