I Owed The Vampire Prince. [23]
I was laying down on my bed, listen to Jasmine iPod. I know I should have asked her, but I just saw it and decided to listen threw it. Her music is little-earthly. Like the sound of rainforest or the ocean.
It didn't help the headache I have, it just made me more mad.
I bit my bottom lip, I can't stand to say this, but I want to know what Lucas is doing. I can't believe he kissed me-again, but what is freaking me out more is that I kissed him back.
I can't stand him, but something just made me. I liked it, but I also hated it. I wish I could tell someone about this, but I don't know everyone here while, I couldn't just tell someone, for all I know, they could be a big mouth.
I only ever trust Kayla with my problems, no one else. Not even my parents.
So who can I tell?
Knock Knock Knock
I heard a few knocks at the door. I raised my eyebrows in confusion, everyone was working. I got up from the bed and put Jasmine iPod on the bed as walked passed her bed.
I walked over to the door and opened it. No was standing there anymore, but there was something hanging on the door though. A white folded piece of paper was tapped on the door, it had my name on it. I took it off the door and opened.
Hey Dorinda, it Liam. Go down to storage hallways in 15 minute. No one ever goesdown there, so well be alone. -Liam.
Storage room? I don't know where that is. I only been here about a month, it's probably way down in the palace.
I looked at the letter and saw at the bottom was an arrow pointing at the edge. I turned it around and showed a line map.
I smiled at the line, they weren't good perfect lines, they were a little messed up.
I slipped on my shoes and made my way down the hall, than I turned left one time and went down the stair case, than another one, than another one. From the map, I'm almost there, just have to turn right, than go down the third hallways on the right, than one more right.
Gosh, this place is huge, I thought. I have always bin going up or straight and down in the place, I'm going to have climb up all those stairs later on than.
It was a little dim, but the light was good enough. Liam wasn't here yet. So I decided to looking around. I know, I'm a noise person.
I start at one door, wouldn't budge open. I tired another, nope. Another one, nope. One did open, it was small and their were just old bed and pillow sheets so I just shut the door and went to the next one. I came to this door that was a little different from the others, the wood looks really old and knob wasn't metal, it was also wood. I notice there was no key lock. I twisted the knob, it open. Inside was filled with boxing.
The closet was bigger than other one I open. I couldn't see anything but boxing, so I looked for a little switch. I couldn't find it, getting mad, I decided just try my best threw the dark.
I went to a box that was the smallest, it was the size of a shoe box. Something weird, the box had a scent. I raised my eyebrows and opened the box, white candles sticks were inside. I smirked.
Thankfully their was also a box of matches inside.
I took a candle holder and stuck the candle on it and lit it. Something caught my eye, way in the back of the closet and their was some boxes cover it, but I can see it was a picture, a painted picture.
Their was two people I could see. A guy and a girl. The guy look familiar, I made my way towards it. Once I was standing in front of it, I realized who the guy was---it was Lucas.
He was looking happily down at the girl. Lucas was dressed in tan dress pant that looked from the 18th century and white puffy shirt that showed some of his chest. His hair was a little shorter than it was now, but what stuck out a lot was that his eyes were emerald green, not their usual grayish-green.
The girl had a beautiful 18th century champagne color dress with white gloves. Her hair was curly blond that was up in a what looks like pearls headband. Some of her curls were hanging out of the peral handband. Her eyes were a light beautiful blue, and she had beautiful fill shaped rounded lips. She was amazedly beautiful, their was no doubt about it.
They were both holding hands, facing each other, their eyes were filled with love. For some reason, I felt jelous towards the picture, but I don't know why I cared so much.
I looked at the bottom of the picture, in graved in gold was Lucas name and the girl name, Savanna. There was also a date, June 28, 1830.
I set the candle down on one of the boxing and sat down in front of the picture. Lucas looked so happy, I wonder what made him changed, he looks so nice. And where is this Savanna girl? I have never heard her before or seen her.
Something about Savanna seems weird, she looks tan, like a perfect tan. I have not yet a vampire that was tan.
She can't be human...can she?
I never would have believe Lucas would have ever been in love, even with a human. Lucas seems to be happy in the picture though, so he has bin love, with this Savanna girl. It looks like she was in love with him back.
I finally just took notice that there were too big box that was next to the picture, they looked really dusty and the boxes looked warn out and about to fall apart. In old fashion cursive had the name Savanna on both of them
I know I shouldn't go looking throw the box. I mean, it isn't my stuff, I'm not going to go looking. My finger started tapping my lap. Oh great, curiosity came over me. I went on my knees and unfolded the one box. Dust fill on my hands and on the floor as I opened it and looked inside.
The box was mostly filled with dresses and jewelry and a hand held mirror and brush. I lifted the brush, it was rusted and the bristles were really dusted. I could see some blond hair in it.
I put the brush next to me and picked up the mirror, just like the brush, it was rusted and the mirror was really dirty, I could barely see myself. Just like the brush, I put it to my side and lifted one of the dresses half way out the box, enough to see the waist and up.
Their were only three other dresses, but when I finally got to the bottom, their was something at the bottom. A small book--or a journal.
I leaned down to pick it up, but I heard footsteps. Quickly, I grabbed it and stuff it my back of my pants, covering it with my shirt. I quickly throw the dresses and the brush and mirror back in and closed the box. It would not look good if someone found me nosing around.
I blew out the candle made a run to the door, but as I got to the door, I ran into Liam. "Well hello to you too.", he joked as I pulled away, embarrassed.
"Hi.", I said, already feeling my cheek burn red, but tired to hid it by smiling.
He raised his left eyebrow, "What were you doing in there?', he asked, laughing.
"Um..", I said, scratching my head, thinking of what to say, "I got here pretty fast and thought 'Hey, look around wouldn't hurt while waiting',", I said, not really lying.
"Oh.", he said, leaning around me and closing the door. He smiled down at me very cute I never notice how his tattoo matches his eyes so well. "So,", he said, leaning his right hand on the door, his hand real close to my neck, his voice seem grow sexy, "I know you only been here a month and I sure you probably hate it here.",
I wanted to speak, but I'll know it'll come out stupid, my mouth feels all dry. I licked my lips quickly and nodded fast, I couldn't help the smile that came on my face, "Yeah, I do.",
He face seems to be getting close to mine every few seconds. "I hate it here too. I was going to leave a few days before you came, but after I saw you, I didn't want to go anymore.",
I didn't know what to say. He face was so close to mine. I felt nervous, I couldn't speak. I opened my mouth, but nothing came out, I probably look really dumb.
His nose was now really close to touching mine and I could feel his breathing. Oh God, he's going to kiss me. Before his lips could touch mine, I spoke up, "Who's Savanna?", I asked. It was killing me, I really want to know who she is.
If my ears weren't wrong, I heard a small sigh come out his mouth. God, why did I have to speak up? I really wanted him to kiss me. He looked at me, "Savanna, she was Lucas human wife.",
