Preface
My name is Aramantha. I am a sixteen 년 old vampire. I have shoulder length, blonde hair, a tall, flexible pixie-like body, blue eyes, and a crazy vampire family. I have an older brother, four older sisters and a mother. My oldest sister and brother are twins. My older brother is five 분 older than my sister. Their names are Lucine, and Alla. Then comes the triplets, Elvira, Aleera and Verona. My mother’s name is Nardia. We are the last of the Brax family and clan. We live in the small country town of Luckey, Ohio.
Ch.1- New House, New Town
All I heard when I woke up was the sound of boxes being taped shut. I 빙어, 빙 어 guilt in the air. That scent only meant one thing. We were moving again. This’ll be the third time in six months that we have had to move. I already knew the reason was because of my brother getting into another bar fight that should have killed him.
“I can’t believe you,” I screamed at my brother as soon as I broke down his locked door.
“Why do 당신 always have to break down my door,” complained Lucine, his chin length black hair sticking up all over the place like it always does in the morning.
“You always lock your door knowing that I’ll break it down,” I replied.
“The movers will be here in a few hours,” mumbled my brother.
“I’m guessing that the movers are your friends,” I asked in something 더 많이 like a sentence.
“Yes, and I assume that our sisters have packed everything of yours,” Lucine said confidently.
“I’m sure they did while I was sleeping,” I said thoughtfully.
“Why don’t 당신 get changed before my 프렌즈 get here,” suggested Lucine.
“Yeah I probably should get ready. I doubt they would want to see me in this outfit,” I agreed pulling down the too short pajama 상단, 맨 위로 my sisters insist I wear.
“Trust me they wouldn’t mind, it would just be harder for them to work,” my brother corrected me as I went back to my room to get ready. He loved correcting me when it came to his friends.
I looked around my room to see what my sisters had left out for me to wear today. Then I saw it. It was a dark brown, leather 고삐, 홀 터 넥 상단, 맨 위로 and one of my many 고딕 miniskirts. The only thing about this outfit that I could’ve gone without was the pair black leather stiletto boots. I was going to break my neck in these things! I didn’t know how to walk in heels let alone stilettos! I put the outfit on anyways. I just didn’t want to be forced into the boots.
“Hey guys, she’s actually wearing the outfit,” called my sister, Aleera, down the hall.
“What,” asked all my sisters that were now running into my room to see what I looked like. They all gasped as soon as they saw me.
“You look great,” exclaimed Verona wearing her 가장 좋아하는 green 고삐, 홀 터 넥 상단, 맨 위로 and skinny jean. She had her shoulder length red hair up in a ponytail.
“You’re going to need to practice walking in those heels for an 시간 또는 two before the guys get here,” Elvira declared the obvious wearing her “moving clothes”, a pair of red running pants and hoodie. Her mid back length hair hanging down in loose braids.
“I told 당신 guys that if we stayed within her boundaries with the color scheme she would wear it,” stated Alla. She was the tallest of all of us. She wore 데이지 Duke Shorts and a too tight light gray shirt. Her hair changed at her will, today it was waist length and midnight black.
“Let her actually breathe and walk 당신 three,” complained Aleera. She was wearing one of my least 가장 좋아하는 outfits that I owned, a bright 담홍색, 핑크 sleeveless 상단, 맨 위로 and bright 담홍색, 핑크 kapris. Her 딸기 blonde hair was up in a bun showing off her 담홍색, 핑크 hoop earrings. She loved 담홍색, 핑크 way too much. I swear I was adopted because I was nothing like my sisters.
“Thank you,” I thanked Aleera.
“You’re welcome,” she replied.
Ding dong went the door 벨 when the guys got here.
“Hi boys,” said my mother way too cheerful for my taste.
“Hi,” said the boys in unison once they were all in the door.
“Hi,” I said meekly.
“Hi. How are 당신 A,” responded one of the seven boys. I couldn’t see him so he must’ve been in the back.
“I’m fine, how’re 당신 Jareth,” I asked as soon as I recognized the voice.
“I’m doing better knowing that I can help 당신 move,” replied Jareth.
“I’m guessing we all have our own movers,” I said to Nardia.
“Yes we do,” she replied.
“So what’ve 당신 been up to,” asked Jareth once we were in his truck after moving all of my boxes into the 침대 of it. He had blue- black hair that was shoulder length when it was combed down like it was today. He wore 고딕 and rocker clothing. He liked to mix and match the two styles. His beautiful almost black eyes were never as cold when he was with than when he didn’t know I was watching and he was with other people. He had a tattoo of a dragon encircling his arm, and several piercings on his cartilage and on his bottom lip.
“Not really much now a days,” I replied staring at him because he could talk to me like we were best of 프렌즈 while I had to try to act calmly around him and not blush. I had a huge crush on him and he had an equally as big crush on me.
“Why,” he asked.
“I have been and always will be an outcast in every town I live in,” I replied a little caught off guard 의해 his question.
“You won’t be as much of an outcast in this town, I swear it,” he said this so confidently I couldn’t help but believe him.
“How do 당신 know that?”
“You’ll be with me,” he replied.
I was stunned to hear this.
I was quiet so long that he must’ve gotten worried about me because he asked me, “Are 당신 all right?”
“Yeah, just a little stunned that…” I trailed off.
“That your mom is moving 당신 to my city,” he supplied.
“Yeah, what city is she moving me to anyway?”
“Mine…”
“I know that, I meant what’s the name of the city.”
“She’s moving 당신 to Toledo, Ohio. Hey, before I forget, there’s this dance at school coming up and I was hoping that 당신 would go with me instead of anyone else,” he said a little sheepishly.
“I’m not even in school yet and you’re asking me this?”
“Just answer the 질문 before I pullover and drop 당신 의해 the side of the road and wait until 당신 call me with an answer for me to come back to pick 당신 up,” he threatened.
“Fine I’ll go with you,” I answered partly because I wanted to and also because I didn’t want to be stuck on the side of the road.
“Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
It was quiet for a couple hours as we drove. Then Jareth turned the radio onto my 가장 좋아하는 station. Luckily my 가장 좋아하는 song was on and he didn’t mind me blasting the radio while he was driving. I started rockin’ out, then when the song was over he turned down the volume chuckling.
“Guess 당신 like that song to,” asked Jareth still chuckling.
“Like it, I 사랑 that song,” I did my best to sound outraged. This made him laugh even harder.
“Don’t worry, I rock out to the song when I’m not driving and also when I’m alone in the house. I’ve been caught 의해 Athan a couple of times. He said the 다음 time he caught me doing that he was going to take a video of it and post it on the internet.” Athan was Jareth’s twin brother. They would’ve been identical if Jareth wouldn’t have grown out his hair, and Athan didn’t keep dying his hair different colors.
“I have never been caught once yet.”
“Well then good job and good luck when my brother starts spying on you.”
“Let me guess 당신 either live 다음 door to me 또는 across the street.”
“It’s across the street. I’ll do my best to keep him from spyin’ but I can’t promise 당신 anything,” he said finally turning his head to look at me, he’d been blushing. I could tell because he was still blushing just a little bit.
“Thanks, I bet my sisters would encourage him.”
“They probably would.”
We were silent for another two 또는 three songs. Then we pulled up to the house. It was an ancient, three story, pale blue mansion with the paint chipping of quite a bit. I knew that my mother would paint it in the summer no matter how appropriate I thought the color was.
“Wow,” I said unable to think of any other words to describe how I felt about the house.
“It’s 믿을 수 없는 that this house is in its original form with no restorations 또는 anything like that isn’t it?”
“No restoration at all,” I asked in a stunned voice.
“None what so ever.”
“Not even new paint jobs?”
“Nope. The people that built it were 고딕 뱀파이어 like you.”
“Like me?”
“Yeah, your mom didn’t tell you?”
“No not at all. She never tells me anything when we’re about to 옮기기 houses.”
“Then I guess she never told 당신 that she was going to keep it in its original state, no new paint jobs 또는 anything. She’s not even going to sell it. She’s going to give it to 당신 when you’re finally an adult and married.”
“She is,” I asked excited now that I knew why she allowed Jareth to be my mover.
“Yeah.”
“I’m also guessing that in two years 당신 and I will get married.”
“That would be correct. I don’t know why though.”
