“Claire hey Claire”
“Yeah,” I said without looking at the person who called me.
“Erm well... I don’t know what to say”
I glanced up at Helen who was looking at everyone mouthing the words say something.
“I know what to say” Jason looked right at me “Stay away from him okay? Otherwise, you will not be leaving this house”
“Okay,” I replied.
“Wait what? You’re not going to argue?”
“Nope. I will stay away from him as soon as I finish my project in English”
“I knew there was something behind that ‘okay’. So I guess you will have to stay in the house” he gave me one of his devil smiles.
“No, you see. I need to get a good grade in English all my lessons for that matter and if that means I’m hanging around with werewolves then that’s fine.”
“WEREWOLVES? WHAT DO YOU MEAN?”
“Erm well to do the project I need to go over to his house and I’m sure he would be living with other werewolves. I mean Sam and Alex”
“GOD CLAIRE YOU’RE SO DUMB”
“DUMB” I shouted at him.
“Yes, dumb now stop shouting. You’re giving me a headache. God the number of times I’ve said this but you really have a fucking death wish”
“Huh weird. How can I have a death wish when I know it’s going to come true?”
“No it’s not.” everyone stared at Jason in confusion so did I.
“Wait what? You said to that lady -”
“Cynthia” Blake interrupted me.
“I don’t care what her name was. Jason said that he was going to let me die so he is”
“Claire I have already said this. We are not going to let you die”
“Yeah, well it’s not up to you”
“That’s it” Huh? Everyone looked at Jason and nodded in agreement. Blake got a hold of my arm and Fayt got hold of my other arm while Jason made his way out of the living room door and we all followed.
“Hey get off me. What’s going on?”
We were making our way to this dark place. We got to a bright room that was caged and it had a bed in the corner and no windows. Jason opened the door to let Blake and Fayt drag me inside.
“Hey what are you doing?”
They dumped me on the bed and before I knew it I was locked inside the jail cell.
“Hey what’s the big deal?” I asked while walking to the jail bars.
Helen was the first one to talk. “ We didn’t want to do this”
“Speak for yourself. I think she deserves this” Shane said.
“God I hate you, Shane. She does not deserve this and you know it” Helen stormed out with Shane on her trail apologizing.
“Okay, what the hell is going on? Get me out. This is not funny”
“It is not meant to be funny. You are staying in here until you come to your senses Claire and I mean it.” Jason said with a firm voice.
They all started to walk off.
“HEY COME BACK YOU CAN’T DO THIS JASON” He didn’t reply. He walked out and locked the door leaving me in a cell.
“JASON I’M GOING TO KILL YOU” Stupid bloodsucker.
I turned around and sat on the small bed. The only thing that was running through my head was what if I need the toilet. I’m screwed.
I sighed and lay down on the bed. I glanced to my side. There wasn’t much in here just a small table next to the bed with a book on it. I picked up the book ‘of mice and men’. God the number of times I have read this book. I was about to read but the door opened. I dropped the book on the floor and glanced up to see who it was.
“Fayt, what are you doing here?”
“Thought you might need company”
“Awww isn’t that sweet... not. Get me out of here, now that would be sweet”
“Claire you know I can’t”
“It’s not hard. Break the bars”
“Claire I can’t”
“Fine. I don’t need your company. Go.”
“No Claire. I don’t want you to die. As much as Jason maybe even more”
“Yeah well, I am not coming to my senses or whatever. I guess I’ll have to die in this jail cell”
Fayt sighed. And so did I. He stood up and started to walk out. I started coughing really badly and put my hand over my mouth as a reaction.
“Claire, why can I smell blood?” Fayt asked.
I started to cough more and when I stopped I glanced down at my hand to see blood. I looked at Fayt who seemed to be holding back his hunger.
“Claire, are you okay?”
“I’m fi-” I didn’t even get halfway through the sentence when I started to cough again.
“Jason I’ll go get Jason” Fayt mumbled. It seemed he couldn’t handle the smell of my blood.
It stopped now and I was on the ground kneeling over when Jason charged in. He took one glance at my hands and opened the cell really fast and was next to me in seconds.
“Claire?”
“Yeah, I’m fine.”
“I never asked that” he grabbed me by the arm and the next thing I knew I was being carried bridal style.
We were making our way through the living room to get to the front door when Helen, Shane, and Blake came rushing over with worried faces.
