I woke up when my phone vibrated in my coat pocket. I pushed her back with my hands and pulled her away from me. He looked at the name on the screen of my phone and looked at me with great disgust and left. He put on his helmet and got on his motorcycle, fueling the gas and suddenly disappearing.
-What's wrong with this? Is he crazy or not?
I was muttering, my phone in my hand, looking behind him. The caller was Başak Arıkan. I didn't want to ignore her call, but I didn't pick up the phone because I knew she wouldn't be silent if she started talking. I was about to be late for class, I had to be at school in ten minutes. I started running, knowing that I fell asleep very often, so I rented a house near the school. It seemed like a house within walking distance would completely relieve me of the trouble of waking up early. Out of breath, I made my way to the guidance room. The school was so big that I had no clue how to find the guidance room. When I realized that I had entered a dead-end corridor, I heard a crowd talking among themselves and decided to ask them about the route I should take. I didn't want to waste more time than I did. As I approached the crowd, which I thought were three or five people, a feeling of uneasiness came over me. My blood drained and my hairs started to stand on end. Something inside me ordered me to turn around and go, but my body did not obey me, as if under a spell, it continued to be dragged into the alley of fear. They knew from the beginning that I was here, they stopped talking among themselves. When I put my glasses back in place, I seemed to see a familiar face. I could have sworn I had seen one of them before; "Luca!" I shouted. The white-haired boy immediately turned his gaze towards me; "Oh, you're our new neighbor," he said with a big smile on his face. When I realized that he knew me, I wiped my sweat beads on my arm. "Well, I can't find the guidance room." I said. I was asking him for help like an innocent child, begging him with my eyes to get me out of here. Standing from the wall on which he was leaning; "I can show you, it's okay." he replied. I bowed my head gratefully and watched him come towards me: "See you guys, I think I've decided to go to class today." he said to the others while waving. -There is something strange in this school! said a voice inside me. "Luca, thank you for helping me," I said, embarrassed as I remembered how I had mistreated them last time. "It doesn't matter, we're next door neighbors after all." he said, laughing. He was a jovial person, not the type to be obsessed with everything. He had a unique aura, a feature that attracted people to him. When I looked up and looked at his face, I realized that I hadn't realized how handsome he was until that moment. He had a pale complexion just like James. The grace on him was indescribably captivating.
I just realized that besides her hair being white, her eyes are purple like an amethyst. I thought he was hiding something under his smiling face, this scene sounded familiar to me. -A minute! I understood how I knew this feeling, just like I felt when I first met my family. While it radiated warmth, it frightened me as if I was struggling in a dangerous pit. My shoulders tense up, he puts his hand lightly on my shoulder. "He got as much as he said," he whispered. I was surprised: "What did he say he had as much?" I asked. "Your scent," he said, taking a deep breath of air. "Your scent is stunning..."
Scent...
I've heard this a few times from Alaz too. On the day he turned eighteen, at a celebration we held among ourselves, he approached me and sniffed me for a long time, and then he kept saying that my smell was dizzying. When I freed myself from my memories, I turned to Luca and said: "Who were they? They looked very dangerous." I asked. He stretched, clasping both arms behind his head. He was quite tall. Taller than any man I know. He was strong, his waist showing from his muscles that seemed to burst from the top of his shirt. He wasn't looking at me, he opened his mouth: "Are you going to tell me your name or should I give you a nickname like James?" ' he asked, his lips parted. He just turned his eyes on me for a moment. I shuddered: "Mina, Mina Özlen."
I slowly opened my eyes. It didn't take me long to realize I wasn't at home. I jumped in horror when I saw five men lined up around me. Because I didn't have glasses, I couldn't make out clearly who they were. When the red-haired one among them understood the situation and handed me my glasses, I thanked them, took them and put them on quickly. James and Luca were standing side by side.
"What are you thinking?" ' asked the dark-haired one. Others had skin as white as porcelain, and this boy stood out among them. He was arranging the papers he had piled up on the food stand. "Not bad." I have to give his justice, his necklaces with crosses hanging down his ears and on the ends gave him a very cool character. When I adjusted my glasses and examined them a little more closely, I saw that it was perfect. It was extremely perfect. Despite trying to portray a bad boy image unlike the others, I felt a warmth in him that drew me to him. He was still playing with the cards he had lined up and avoiding me. Suddenly, the light bulb in the chandelier lit in the middle of the room exploded. I was startled by this sudden explosion and covered my ears. That's when he looked at me, looking rather uneasy. He walked towards me, smashing the cards he had just played. He sat on the edge of the sofa. "How are you feeling seriously?" When I asked, I thought of what we had experienced with Luca, and I immediately brought my hand to my neck. When I saw that several layers of bandages were thrown, I realized that what had happened was real.
"Vampire!"
