Later that evening, the party was as lite as ever. Raymond, Dylan, Tyler and Jaiden had just arrived.
"Jenny…" Tyler called and immediately, a lady in a short transparent dress turned around.
"Damn…three freaking handsome guys in my party". She gulped down the liquid in her wine glass before walking over to them.
"You guys made it".She hugged each of them but when she got to Raymond, she stared at him hard and he did the same.
"Hey jerk". She said with disgust.
"Hey slut". He smiled before she immediately hugged him.
"How have you been?" She asked.
"Good as always". He said.
"Where's Risa and Quinn?" Jaiden asked
"Somewhere around". She said.
"You got drugs?" Tyler asked.
"What's a party without drugs, come with me ". They walked away.
They all dispersed into different places. Raymond sat on the trunck of his car as he smoked on a cigarette. He watched everyone party with no interest.
He was about to take another puff when he saw a familiar figure and when she turned around, it was her…Tara. He jumped down from the car as he began to walk towards where she stood but she began to walk away so he followed her but before he could continue, Ron came to block his path.
"Hey Raymond". She smiled.
"Hey Ron". He smiled as he pecked her cheeks.
"When did you get back from Spain?" She asked.
"Two days ago". He couldn't see Tara anymore.
"Nice, wanna catch up later?" She asked.
"Sure, text me when you're free". He said before walking out but she wasn't anywhere around.
"Hey dude what are you looking for?" Dylan asked with his arm wrapped around a girl's shoulder.
"A girl". He said as he took the drink from Dylan's hand.
" Well this is Isabel". Dylan said and the girl sent Raymond a flirtatious wave.
"Oh hey Isabel, I thought her name was Meghan. And didn't she have blonde hair". Raymond said as Dylan sent him some signals to keep quiet.
"Dylan what is he saying?" Isabel asked.
"Oh, my mistake it was Meghan you were with last night". Raymond acted dumb.
"Dylan!!!" She stepped on his feet out of anger before walking away.
"Ouch, hey babe…" he finally looked at Raymond who was giving him a sly smile. "What the…"
"Stop exaggerating the pain, your a vampire now help me look for my girl". Raymond smiled as he began to walk away knowing that Dylan will follow him because they always stood at each other even at the silliest things.
"Why are you so interested in this girl by the way?" Dylan asked. "You don't have sex with a girl more than once".
"No I don't and that's why I always make sure I do everything I wanna do with them". Raymond said as soon as they got to the swimming pool site.
"So?" Dylan asked a bit confused.
"I didn't get to finish what I started, and for some reason I find it a necessity to finish it". Raymond said.
"Was she that good?" Dylan asked curiously.
"Dylan has something you found boring suddenly turn interesting when you do it with someone?" Ray asked with squinted eyes.
"Hmm…oh yeah, I have always hated thanksgiving but I spent my thanksgiving with Meghan this year and it was amazing". He said.
"So I hate slow sex especially when it is on the bed but I did it with her and I guess it was cool". Ray said.
"So what if she refuses to?"
"You know am a good pester". Ray said. "Hmm.. you surely are". Dylan said.
"Now help me find her, you've seen her right?" He asked.
"A bit I guess ". Dylan said.
"Okay, mind link me if you see her". Raymond said before he walked away.
TARA'S POV.
I saw the guy from yesterday and I've been running away from him ever since then. I was looking for Sean, he was the cause of all this. He dragged me to this nuisance of a party. I had this bad stomach ache that wouldn't just go.
I took out my phone to text Sean.
' I'm waiting for you'. I texted him. I was still standing there when, I saw the guy with another guy. I walked back inside the house discreetly as I walked away into the halls. I held my belly in discomfort.
I felt so light headed and nauseous at the same time. I was already far away from the party that I couldn't hear the sound of random people's chatter and the sound of music. I sat down on the floor by the edge of the wall. I leaned back as I took out my inhaler as I took a deep puff.
"Oh Sean, if I get you…" I sighed. RAYMOND'S POV
I walked inside the house as I decided to check mother's collection of ghouls. I walked into the halls when I heard haggard breathing. I followed the sound but then stopped. I listened closely as I picked up a soft breath. I arrived just to see Tara laying on the floor. I squatted down as I placed the back of my palm on her forehead and I noticed she was sweating and burning at the same time. I clicked my tongue as I carried her to one of the empty rooms.
I laid her down carefully before mind linking Dylan to come over. I sat next to her when I felt her move, I looked at her and her eyes where open but before I could blink, she had already puked on her shirt, the floor and the side of my jacket.
"Shit!" I cursed.
"Am sorry". She huffed for air as she stretched her hands as if reaching out for something. I followed her eye sight and I noticed it was her purse.
I picked it up as I checked inside and searched inside and found an inhaler. I immediately helped her out with it. She took in two puffs.
"Thank you". She sighed in fear as I took of my jacket.
"Don't worry you can't die now, until I get what I want from you". I smiled.
Dylan immediately came in.
"Hey you found the witch". He said.
"Witch?" I asked.
"Yeah, she is a witch. As long as she could make you very interested in her". Dylan smiled.
"Dylan I don't have time for this…please get us new clothes ". I said and he leaned to see Tara with a dirty shirt on her.
"Sure, you owe me a lot man". Dylan said before leaving.
