Frizabelle
Wednesday – Morning
As I woke up from the weird incident last night, I still can't help but to smile recalling what my feelings reflect to my actions there but as her scent began to wrap around me, it never failed to irritate my day. I might groan from that scent but when my eyes glance to my side and see her sleeping peacefully, it made my heart feel so warm to the point of making me happy.
'Now, you admitted it, are you still going to reject her?'
"Seriously, why do you have to ruin my moment?" I groaned when she interrupted me from watching my mate's sleep which Lena just chuckled at me.
"And to answer you, nope. Not a chance. She's stuck with me - with us." I continued as I replied through our mind as I tried to slip away from Ceres' arms around me.
As I did, I left a kiss onto her forehead before I immediately went to the bathroom to take a bath and changed.
5 am
Seriously this is not me. Being an early bird wasn't my thing but part of me wanted to. I went down to the kitchen since I have some urges to cook something for our breakfast.
"Let's see what I should cook?" I asked myself while thinking as I looked for something to cook on the fridge.
I took lots of bacon, opened some tuna in a can, hotdogs, eggs and some veggies then heated the pan with cooking oil. I cooked the eggs first as I recalled my mom favorite for her breakfast then bacon along with hotdogs as I thought Ethan loves hotdogs while Nate was like me; we both loved tuna and bacon with mayonnaise on bread. Yume, Avery and Ceres can eat anything that suits their taste that makes everything in an easy way. I don't know what came into me when I began to sing Tangled Up by Skye Sweetnam which led me on dancing as I cooked our breakfast. Good thing, nothing spilled on the floor while I danced.
You wanna know more, more, more about me
Gotta know reverse psychology
I'm the reason why you can't get to sleep
I'm the girl you never get just quite what you see
Hey! Hey! Hey!
As I sang the second stanza of the song, I realized that I did a reverse psychology to Ceres when she was trying to get to know me by treating me or calling her queen which I seriously like. But I'm not sure about the part of her not getting enough sleep or even going to sleep since I'm invading her thoughts. Just thinking of it made me grin like a mean girl but seriously, she never got me that easily if I may say.
Can't you see I want you by the way I push you away, Ya!
Don't judge me tomorrow by the way I'm acting today
Mix the words up with the actions do it all for your reaction, Ya!
Hey! Hey!
Get tangled up in me
I began to giggle when I was singing the chorus of the song which I was acting almost the same. Back in those times, whenever I kept pushing her away, it doesn't mean that I really wanted her to be away from me. Maybe a little distance because of her scent still irritates me big time but I'm starting to get used to it - guess?
You think that you know me
You think that I'm only
When everything I do is only to get tangled up in you
You wanna know more, more, more about me
I'm the girl that's sweeping you off your feet
Hey! Hey! Hey!
Can't you see I want you by the way I push you away, Ya!
Don't judge me tomorrow by the way I'm acting today
Mix the words up with the actions do it all for your reaction, Ya!
Hey! Hey!
Get tangled up in me
As I sang the bridge up to the end of the song, I was indeed enjoying myself while I was cooking and dancing when I didn't realize that a pair of loving eyes were already watching me. Well, she's a vamp, how could I forget that.
"What a beautiful morning to see my queen, sing and dance while cooking. It was indeed a lovely sight." Ceres commented which made me blushed as I began to prepare at our breakfast nook. Actually, we don't use the dining table unless there is a huge gathering at home.
'Well, it will be a more lovely sight if she's only wearing an apron or much better nothing at all. Which one do you prefer, my queen?'
"PERVERT!" I shouted at her as I threw a chair to which she privately linked me. Ceres caught the chair and put it back to where it was supposed to be.
"Being sweet in the morning is the best sight." Dad commented that I didn't see him standing along Ceres while I was preparing the table.
"And you woke up early to cook breakfast, that's new." Mom continued that I knew she was teasing me as she took some latte coffee. That's her favorite coffee while my father likes black coffee – I mean so plain with no sugar at all; bitter, I know right? Anyway, that's Dad for you.
I didn't respond to my mother's remarks instead, I just kept moving around the kitchen as I served them cooked meals that I made without any help aside from the eyes of Ceres who kept watching me do the cooking earlier. Ceres came to me and hugged me from behind then kissed her mark that was visible on my shoulder. I gasped as I felt some tingling feeling from that kiss. I looked at her then gave her a peck on her lips that made Mom, Dad and Ceres in surprised faces. I kinda like their looks by now. Then I made my way to the refrigerator to get my chocolate mint that Ceres always prepared for me. I wondered how she could make them.
"I took fresh mint herb at the neighborhood farm and then melted some my favorite dark chocolate." Ceres replied to my thoughts that made me glare back at her for reading my thoughts without my consent at all.
She chuckled. I pouted. They laughed at my reaction.
"Sorry, for reading your thoughts." Ceres sweetly apologized to me as she hugged me from behind again.
"Whatever." I sighed then we both went to the table to eat our breakfast while the others were now wide awake – I mean really wide as they saw me woke up earlier than them.
"I know that I'm not an early bird and I get that so please, just enjoy your breakfast." I sarcastically told them which they just nodded though I can still tell that they were surprised over it.
I sighed and just ignored them as I focused myself on feasting on my food. Yes, I feast on my food since I'm the only one who cooks them.
7:45 am
As all of us finished our breakfast and already finished preparing our school stuff, everyone hopped on their respective cars while me, I was being halted on my trail when I saw Ceres leaning on my Dark. My eyes went glaring at her while she was smirking and arms crossed.
"What's up with this?" I asked as I arched my left eyebrow at her.
"I'll drive you starting this day. So gear up and hop on, my queen." Ceres answered with a hopeful smile on her lips which I just sighed on.
I didn't say anything as I put my helmet on while she hopped on Dark. I sighed once again since I never let anyone touch my motorbike. Meaning, I'm the one who was fixing my Dark whenever something bad happened to it. I just let it go for now and hopped on the back then wrapped my arms around her waist. Of course I didn't hesitate to wrap my arms around her because it was for my own safety being at her back.
"NICE ONE CERES!" Nate shouted followed by the wolf whistle from Yuma and Ethan while Avery just raised her two thumbs up toward us. Then they left us on the front porch.
"Seriously, they're going to be deadmeat with me at lunch." I groaned as I glared at them but they won't see them since I was already wearing my helmet.
"Just let them be, Belle. They're not just used on you being sweet like this." Ceres calmly told me as she patted my arms around her waist which was doing its trick.
"Hey, I can be sweet if I want too." I pouted as I lightly hit her shoulder when I free my hand from her waist.
"I know so just let them be. They don't know what lies underneath the cold façade you put. Everyone has them whether it's for their own protection from other hurtful words or to protect those people they care from their own monster inside." Ceres calmly cleared to me a reason which never occurred to me then she started my motorbike, Dark and went off to school.
All of us went early to school and parked our vehicles on our same spot, Ceres took off her helmet as I did mine then the next thing I knew, she kissed my forehead before heading off inside the school building. I sighed heavily since she left me early but she linked me about the need to file the emergency leave because of the incident yesterday. After a few seconds at the parking area, we all went inside and to the locker area but only a few minutes, Yume and Ethan excused themselves since Yume was elected as the vice-president while Ethan was the elected treasurer of the student council. Everyone in the council room was busy because of the up-coming Winter Party for Christmas, New year and Valentine's Day; it was indeed a hectic schedule. Meanwhile, Nate and Avery left me alone in the locker area as they both went to the library to clean up as they were the library assistants which I didn't realize that they were. I sighed since I was alone on my early-bird morning at school. This was the reason I didn't go to school early. Boring.
"Being alone in the morning makes me want to go back to sleep." I said as I yawned as I put some later books and notes inside my locker before I took my first two subjects for this morning. Then, I smelled her leaning to the lockers next to mine.
"Miss me already?" I asked her while searching something within my locker.
"Heh, you bet. Anyway, see you later, my queen." Ceres told me then vanished as I closed my locker door.
I smiled then I went to my first class and its chemistry with Avery but I think she'll be here later. Inside the room, I took my spot then glanced out the window. I watched the silent scenery across the green grass where some students were playing soccer, practicing some new routine for the cheerleading, and some were just there to wait for the time of their classes. I sighed as I smiled but it was already dismissed as I smelled a foul scent across the field – I mean really, a foul scent like a rogue one across the field meaning on the woods next to the school.
I tried to locate the foul scent just by my senses but it immediately vanished. I was curious, worried and thinking who might be. In broad daylight and not just that with some humans around, so I link everyone within the school if ever they sensed it but they didn't.
"Ceres, did you go to the woods after meeting me?" I asked through our mate link.
'Nope. I'm with Avery after our meeting. Is there something wrong?'
"I smelled a rogue somewhere around the school ground." I replied to her while keeping on sensing it again but nothing.
'Can you tell what rogue they might be?'
"I didn't say they, but it's mixed. The scent was either vamp or wolf." I replied as I sighed while thinking about it.
'I see, maybe it's a hybrid; it has three scents that can never tell whether it's human, wolf or a vampire. But if you smelled a foul scent it might have fallen rouge.'
"What's the difference between rogue and fallen rouge?" I asked as my curiosity rose up within me since I never heard a fallen rogue before.
'Belle, fallen rogue, was the worst among the rogues. It's…I tell you later, he's here.'
She was about to explain it when she cut our link off which I tried to link her again or even to feel her but nothing. I clenched my teeth and my fits then ran out which made some of my classmates surprised and wondered about my sudden movement but all I care now was Ceres. I don't like what I am feeling right now. It was like something was about to happen and it was about Ceres which I don't like one bit of it. I don't want to lose her this time again. I almost did, so, no; a big NO for that.
Ceres
I don't like leaving my lovely mate, Frizabelle hanging with our conversation but I must. Some rotten scent or rotten creature suddenly entered the school ground which alarmed me. Frizabelle was right and it was the worst kind of rogue. None of them really knew about this type of rogue because not all of them encountered this kind of rogue everyday or night. But their scents were more foul than the typical rogues that everyone knew about. In daylight, they were like simple humans but they possessed uncontrolled urges or feelings that were always in overdrive or at the edge which led them from feeding. They ate anything to keep them alive which made their internal organs rot. They could be compared as well to a walking corpse or a zombie but they could still think. It was like a very low breed which the vampire clans washed them away but for some reason, they've been used as spy or slave by the noble clan. Speaking off, this fellow entered the faculty like any ordinary human being, it was a beautiful guy around 20's and charismatic one but there was one thing he can never hide – the scent of rotten flesh.
"Can I help you, young sir?" I asked the guy who seemed like looking for something or someone.
Good thing I was alone at the faculty.
"Oh, I'm looking for Ceres Langford." The guy said while looking around the faculty that it didn't surprise me at all.
Oh-ho, the moon spotted me and I think I know now who this guy was or rather where he came from. This will be interesting. Let's see what will he do when he finds out where I am.
