Chapter eight: Whatever y'all wanna call it
"You're not saying...she's..one of..them..right? I don't see her fangs and her eyes aren't red." Speed examined.
"If I bit into your neck would you believe me? I'm joking. The only way you couldn't tell I was a vampire was because I'm under a spell. My fangs are normal teeth right now. If I were to get rid of the spell, my fangs would come out. I will do the spell on you." Shadow promised.
"Wait...so you mean I'll be able to finally talk?! That's great!" Speed exclaimed.
"What's great?" I heard Bolt say.
Speed checked his teeth. The fangs were gone! He looked at Shadow and she nodded.
"Did Speed just talk?" Thunder asked.
"I think he did!" Sky yelled.
"That's weird...I can't remember anything. What's today?" Snow asked.
"Break. You get one day off to do whatever you wish. You may leave campus as long as you promise to be back by tomorrow for the ceremony.
" Yes!" Thunder yelled.
"What's wrong with them?" Torch asked looking at Icey,Flake,and Air.
"Uh...we..um...they fell asleep." Flight quickly answered.
"Air? Yes. Flake? No. Icey? Maybe. Flake never falls asleep in class." Torch said.
Torch and Sky walked over to her. Sky put his hand to her chest.
"This isn't right. According to books I've recently read, Flake's heart should be 43.6% faster. Her beat seems rather...slow. As for Icey..she's in a deadly situation. Her beat should be 87.7 times faster and that isn't good. Air is doing fine. Except for the fact that his heart isn't beating. But that's all." Sky observed.
"What?! Air!? Get the machine!" Flight demanded.
"What machine?! There's 49 machines in this office!!" Thunder yelled.
"The one with the chords! Hurry!" Flight screamed.
Sky went back over to Flake and pressed against her neck.
"She's doing fine now. I can carry her back to her room." Sky offered.
"Don't you dare lay a finger on her. Understood?" Bolt ordered.
"Uh..I uh..ok? All I need to do is take her back to her room." Sky explained.
"If you dare lay one of your dirty little hands on her you won't live to see the day your brother gets married. Hands off. I hope I made myself clear. I'll take her back to her room." He scowled.
"Ooo spooky." Torch teased.
"Air is doing great thanks to Thunder." Flight praised.
Bolt picked Flake up gently and carried her to her room. He lay her down on her bed.
" I won't let anything happen to you..." He whispered under his breath.
She got up and looked at Bolt. Tears formed in her eyes.
"Bolt..did you save me?" She asked.
He looked angry and sad.
"No! Don't ask stupid things like that! Now..get some rest! And don't get out of bed!" He yelled and stormed out.
I..didn't mean it like that..Bolt..If only you knew how much you mean to me..
She fell asleep thinking about Bolt.
"Flake? Flake! Flake?! Wake up! It's morning. Are you feeling better?" Snow asked.
Flake looked up. She nodded her head. Flake looked across her room and saw Icey just waking up.
"Flight said he'd give you the day off until the ceremony. You and Icey can rest for a while. If you need anything just ask Air. He got in trouble for breaking two more machines so he has to help out. Bye." Snow left and shut the door.
Flake sighed. She thought about how Bolt had talked to her last night. She wondered why he got so upset when she asked the question.
"Hey..Icey..? Are you awake?" Flake asked.
"Yes..why? Do you need something?" She asked.
"I wanted to ask you something... It's about Bolt." Flake said.
"Oh really? Do you have feelings for him?" Icey asked.
"Well..uhh..yes..I do.." Flake blushed.
"Yeah.. I thought so. I think he likes you back." Icey answered.
"What? Why do you think that?" Flake asked.
"Do you see the way he looks at you? And did you here him shout at you yesterday?" Icey asked.
"Oh..you heard that? But how would that mean that he likes me?" Flake said.
"Don't you get it? He's upset with himself! Not you. He couldn't get mad at you. He mad at himself because he wasn't the one who saved you. He wanted to be the one to save you,but Sky stepped in. He just wants to show you that he's worth it." Icey said.
"You think so? But why would a guy like him need to prove his greatness?" Flake asked.
"Because he thinks your great and you would never like a guy like him." Icey said.
"Thanks for that. You're a great friend. We should go now. It's almost lunch. I heard today they're serving the same food as the kids are having to us." Flake replied.
"Yea! And you know those two girls Jessica and Lucy that came a while ago? Well, Flight decided to allow them up here after classes." Icey added.
"That's cool. Let's go." Flake said.
The two girls opened the door. Flake stepped out and looked at Bolt. Bolt glanced back at her but looked away. He looked angry and sad, again.
I wish I could tell him...but I'm too shy... Flake thought.
Jessica and I (Lucy) walked down the master's dorm and into the cafeteria. I recognized some girls from my class like Ivy, Liv,Roxy,and Brooklyn.
Everyone was looking at Jessica and I weirdly. I couldn't seem to figure out why and then I remembered. We were with the masters!
"See? You're with the big guys now!" Air whispered in my ear.
I looked across at Flake who looked across at Bolt. Both of them seemed to be depressed. I walked over to her.
"What's wrong?" I asked. She sighed.
"It's Bolt..I feel like he hates me. But Icey doesn't think so. I wish I could just talk to him. But I get too shy when I talk to people." She sighed.
"You're talking to me." I told her.
"Yes..but that's different. I kind of know you now. And you're a girl and I can relate to." She explained.
Bolt....what's the matter?! Why won't anyone tell me what's going on?! Icey is acting rather nice and so is Snow. Air seems to have lost some of his pride. Speed is acting all weird and he actually talks now. A random new girl came. Thunder doesn't fight with Bolt anymore and Flight is being way too nice...what's going on?
Flake thought
