Crimson Lips Chapters 1-3

Chapter 1-Present1

  I'm here, sitting in a class I have no use for.... Three hundred years, I have no need for schooling, but walking the street, during the day, and I kept getting yelled at for not being at school. Three hundred years, as of yesterday. Such a story to tell, but I should anyway. Where to start is the problem, though. Maybe the days before I was born into darkness, as some call it.2

  I glance around to make sure no one is reading this for they will think it is mysterious how I write three sentences in 2 seconds and still manage to write notes for the class I am currently taking.3

Chapter 2-Past5

  It was the week before my eighteenth, and how excited I was. I had been waiting for the year I became an adult since I was ten. 6

  I was at a mall, by myself, a usual thing I did every day in my mortal life. I was reading a vampire book, totally engrossed in how interesting their lives were. How intriguing it was for me to wish I was one. I find it funny now. I had always found them interesting. They had so many adventures, so much they lived through. They had such a different way of life than what I had. I wanted to live like that. I wanted to be one of them. That's all I had wanted in life.7

  As I read, someone caught my eye. He was tall, well, taller than myself. Dark brown eyes, slightly tanned but very pale at the same time. He wore black clothes and an awesome trench coat. [All black, my kind of person,] I thought grinning, as I returned my attention back to the book.8

  "Reading indoors, on such a lovely day? What a shame," he said.      I laughed, "And lose my pale whiteness to blind you with, no thank you." I looked up at him and saw his smile. [Very handsome,] I thought.9

  [Not as beautiful as yourself, Queen.] His voice said, though I could have sworn his lips didn't move. My jaw dropped and he smiled again and sat next to me.10

  "Who are you?" I finally managed to ask.11

  "My name is Eric Raven," he said with a sudden accent, I couldn't quite place it. "And you are Amelia Shepard, are you not?"12

  I slowly nodded in disbelief. [How does he know my name and _what_ is he?] was all I could think. Then he kissed my lips, smiled, and disappeared. For a split second, when he smiled at me, I swore I saw fangs. I went back to my book, paying attention more than before.13

Chapter 3-Past15

  All the next day, I could not stop smiling. I knew people thought of me as scary when I smiled, except my friend, Chelsea.16

  In choir class, someone pushed me and I turned to see Chelsea and we started to laugh.17

  "You punk," I said as I pushed Chelsea back, laughing still.18

  "What's going on?" she asked, pulling me away from everyone, out of hearing range of anyone.19

  I laughed a little and blushed. "I met a guy at the mall yesterday."20

  "Ooh! Did you kiss him? Was he hot? Did you get his name and number?" She rambled off random questions and I put my hand up to cut her off so I could answer her.21

  "His name is Eric Raven. He-"22

  "Ooh, sounds like a vampire! Describe!!" 23

  I smacked her arm, then said "Shut up and I'll tell you, dorkface!"24

  She stared at me, waiting for me to go on, then she looked over my shoulder, slightly confused. I turned to see where she was looking, when there he was with the secretary that I worked for at the time.25

  "Amelia, there you are! This is Eric, he has class with you, could you show him around?"26

  I nodded slowly and he bowed his head slightly towards me [Queen,] his voice appeared in my head.27

  "Well, you seem to know each other. Amelia, intro!" Chelsea's voice broke the silence.28

  "Sorry, um Chelsea, this is Eric Raven." I gave her the "do-not-act-like-I-was-talking-about-him" look and she nodded. I turned back to him.29

  "Um, what voice part are you?"30

 "Tenor."31

  "Well you're with me then. I grabbed my music and we sat down.32

  He got the music for the class and sat down next to me. He seemed to know the songs perfectly, like he had learned them before, which was slightly impossible because they were written by our choir teacher. The bell rang and thankfully, he had a different class then myself, though he had the same lunch as Chelsea and myself. I showed him to his class, went to mine and sat down exasperatedly, trying my hardest to regain my thoughts and to think about who Eric really was... what he was, I wasn't sure.33

    I.. Am.. Impressed...

    What can I say here... I am a blank when it comes to reply to this.. You have great talent as a writer queen... If things could be the way they are in this story.. Life would be perfect... I am honored that I am in this, my queen. I know not of which to say in reply. Only that I am speechless and do not know what to say...
