Chapter Text
I got out of my dad's car, looking at the high school my sister had been going to for years. I was only going to be here for two years, a year less than my twin sister. I missed my old school, I got along with everyone there and I knew everyone, I had to leave my friends behind because my dad lost his job. I worked one but they won't let me spend it on school, something I loved. I had no choice but to go to Forks High School, at least I would know Jessica and Angela, I knew the others, like Mike, Eric, and Tyler. Lauren was not in my mind, I hated her. Mike always flirted with me when he would see me, even though my sister was right there and I was way too gay for him. But it never got through his very thick skull, I felt Jessica's hand slip into mine. "You got this Nat, come on let's go to the office and get our schedule." At least it was the first day of the school year, I was able to finish out the year with my school year.
We walked into the office, Jessica asking for our slips and taking them from her. She handed me mine and we looked at it with each other. We only had Art and Gym together, I was in AP classes and had multiple free periods classes, while she did not. She rolled her eyes with a smile, we walked to my first class, she promised to always meet me so I could figure my way around even if it made her late. She hugged me and I walked in, looking around the classroom. I saw someone with golden eyes and I knew I shared a class with a Cullen, Jessica gossiped enough at home for me to know of them. I wasn't sure which one it was, there were too many to remember each description of them. I walked over to the teacher, handing her my paper. She nodded and said something but I blocked her out, pointing to the only open seat which happened to be with the Cullen. I had a feeling if I went to each class with them I would sit by them, I remembered Jessica saying they didn't sit with anyone and kept to themselves.
I envied their ability to do that for so long, only hanging out with their family members. I would much prefer that, or even stay only by myself, but I had to interact, I have to. I sat down next to him, the teacher kept on talking before walking around and giving us textbooks and papers. I looked at it and shook my head, this was so easy it would never make it into my old school. I grabbed a pencil and opened to the page we had to. "I'm Jasper Cullen, by the way." I looked over at the voice, my eyes meeting dark golden eyes. I smiled, "Natalie Stanley, nice to meet you." He smiled and I quickly got the work done, feeling his eyes on me. "You're quick, know the subject?" I nodded and looked at his finished page, "I was in an academic school, for advance learners." His eyebrows furrowed, "Then why are you stuck in a school like this?" "My parents... they couldn't afford to keep me there, so I had to move schools." He nodded and looked up at the board, not taking notes I looked and didn't either.
"It sucks moving schools, but at least you have your sister." I looked at him, "Yeah, I'm sorry about how gossipy she is." He laughed, a broad smile on his face. "No worry, darling. I don't pay attention to what people say around here, we're a different type of family, so it's gonna have people talking behind our backs." I could hear his faint southern accent come through, I would have to ask where he was from one day, but not now. "I get that, at my school there wasn't much gossip or bullying, we all had a task to do and we did it. I got enough gossip from my sister at home." I could hear the whispers around us about me talking to him, well a Cullen. I didn't care, I knew it was odd to see someone talking to them but it was none of their business if they talked or didn't talk to someone out of their family.
The teacher collected the pages and had us read the pages in our textbook, I just skimmed the papers, I knew the material already, it was in my first year of middle school. I already hated this school, everything was going to be too easy, I wouldn't learn anything I also knew how that would make me look to the other kids. I got teased enough at home, being the "prodigy" I hated that word but they used it when they would brag about me. The bell rang and I got up, taking my things with me. "Well, I hope to see you again," He tipped a fake cowboy hat and we walked out, Jessica standing at the door waiting for me. She walked me to my next class, I decided I wouldn't tell her I talked to a Cullen, I knew the next time I saw her she would have found out so what was the point? I walked into Math, once again seeing a Cullen. I think I remember Jessica telling me the big muscle one was Emmett, but I could be wrong. I once again showed the teacher my paper and was handed a textbook and paper, before being pointed to the Cullen.
I went over and sat down, grabbing my notebook and pencil. Listening to the teacher explain everything I already knew, I shouldn't get my hopes up on something new. "You're the new girl, right? That Stanley girls twin?" I looked at the big guy next to me, "Yeah, I'm Natalie, you must be Emmett Cullen, my sister gossips enough about your family. Well, and I met Jasper, the golden eyes gave it away." He smiled and nodded, "Yeah that's me, you have a good memory." I laughed and shook my head, "No not really, just things for school but I don't pay attention to what she tells me. But I knew there was only gonna be one big muscly Cullen." He laughed and I could see his eyes shine in the light, I liked the Cullens so far. I only met two of the five, but if they were anything alike to each other I knew I was going to easily get along with them. The class passed quickly with me talking to Emmett, it was a little disappointing because I didn't have class after this I had a free period than lunch. I would be stuck by myself unless I happened to run into a Cullen or someone I knew who was friends with Jessica.
I wanted to laugh but I would look crazy, I knew none of Jessica's friends were in any AP class, except maybe Angela but I think she would riot if she got a free period, she loved school too much. I decided I would just sit in the Library while I waited for my free period to be off, I sat down in a dark corner, grabbed my headphones put on some music, and grabbed a book from my bag. My music wasn't loud enough to not hear my surroundings but loud enough that I could focus on my book. I was dreading the school year, I didn't want to be stuck in a school that seemed too easy for me, that seemed to drag on if I was alone. I saw movement in the corner of my eye, it looked like someone skipping towards me. I looked up from my book and at the person getting closer, seeing the bright golden eyes, I was shocked I met a new Cullen already. I didn't think I would get that lucky, I thought the boys would be all I met. I was wrong, she had a wide smile that contradicted her spiky dark hair.
"Hi, I'm Alice." She put her hand out for me, I took my headphones out and shook her hand. "I'm Natalie, nice to meet you. I've met two of your brothers already today, crazy to run into you today too." I was a little shocked at her cold hands but it wasn't odd for Forks to have naturally cold skin, I just thought they would have warmed up being in the school. "Yeah Jasper told me about meeting you, I just knew I had to meet you myself. He said you were very smart and quick in class," I blushed, I knew it was a compliment coming from them, they were top in their classes. Before I could say anything she froze, her eyes glossing over for a few seconds before she just smiled again. I didn't know what happened, but I knew it was weird. "I hope we can become best friends, Natalie." I smiled and nodded, "I hope so too, your brothers are fun to talk to." She gave me a quick hug that shocked me before skipping away, I shook my head and opened my book again.
I didn't get to do much reading before the bell rang for lunch, I got up and headed out. I knew where the Cafeteria was, we had passed it on the way in so I didn't need Jessica's help, not that she knew where I was. I walked into the cafeteria and saw Jessica looking around for me, I walked over and she pulled me over to the lunch line. We grabbed our food and she then pulled me over to her table, I sighed and sat down. I wanted to at least sit by myself, but there was no way with Jessica.
Chapter Text
The minute we had sat down I was bombarded with questions from Jessica, I ignored Mike's flirtatious smile and Lauren's glare that always seemed to be aimed at me. It wasn't my fault the boys wanted me, though I had no want for them, nor the fact she was held back in her classes. She should have studied more often but she didn't, she could only blame herself for it. "I heard you were talking to the Cullens, Jasper, Emmett, and Alice to be exact." I rolled my eyes, "Yeah so what?" "So what? They don't talk to anyone and all of a sudden they talk to you?" "Jesus Jessica, it isn't that deep. I had to sit next to them in class and they started talking to me, if you guys actually tried and interact with them like normal human beings they might interact with you, nope you just gossip behind their backs." She looked almost offended but I didn't care, I started eating my lunch.
I looked over at the Cullen table, they were whispering amongst themselves, Alice looked over at me with a wide smile, waving at me. Jasper and Emmett looked at me, giving me a nod and smile, I waved back with a smile and just ignored my twin sister. Mike moved his chair closer to me, leaning his arm over my shoulders. "So, Natalie, wanna go on a date with me tonight?" I sighed loudly and grabbed his arm in a tight grip, digging my nails into his skin before dropping it into his lap. "For the last time Mike I am not interested in you or anyone at this table, especially of the male gender. I would date Angela before any of you, touch me again and I'll chop your dick off." He quickly covered it and moved away from me, I just shook my head and quickly finished eating. I could see Emmett laughing with Jasper, looking over at me as if they heard it. It must have just been a coincidence, I looked at the blonde that was sitting next to Emmett who was obviously Rosalie and the other one was Edward, she didn't look at me but Edward looked at me confused, as if he was trying to figure me out.
I got up and took care of my tray, looking at my paper, and saw that I had gym. I sighed I had hoped it wasn't anything with Jessica, which I knew she had with Mike. They always had Gym together, it always caused her to have a freakout. I came back over and sat down, leaning in my chair. I was already annoyed for the day with the fact Lauren can't get over herself and Mike thinks I owe him something. I hoped he finally got the hint because I will punch him in the throat if he tries something again. Once the bell finally rang we got up, they took care of their trays, and Jessica and I started our walk to Gym class. Mike had followed behind us but never came and talked to us, I think he knew I was pissed at him. Good.
We walked into the locker room and got changed into our gym clothes, I luckily had another free period so I could use the showers after, and then I would just sit outside Art class until it was my turn to go in. Once I was done I walked into the gym, and the coach threw me the volleyball since I was the first one out, I wanted to groan but I didn't. I hated volleyball but I would have to suck it up. Once everyone came out he gave a couple of other volleyballs to people, we were practicing with partners. I chose Jessica because of course, we started playing and I felt the coach's eyes on me as I played. Jessica started getting a little competitive, spiking it harder at me, I glared at her and spiked it over her. "That's not fair, you played in middle school Nat." I rolled my eyes, "Yeah and I hated it, but I remembered something out of it." She spiked the ball back and I easily spiked it back, she spiked it back and I spiked it up, before jumping it and once again hitting it over her. She tried hitting back but missed, I caught the ball when she threw it at me and just smiled at her.
The coach came over and clapped slowly, I looked at him. "You did really good, do you wanna join the team? We're looking for a team captain." I looked at Jessica before shaking my head, "No I'm not interested in Volleyball, it's not my sport." He took the ball from me, "That's a shame, what is your sport?" "Wrestling, football, and fencing." He seemed a little shocked, "Well we have wrestling and football, come see me after class and I'll hand you the tryouts flyers. It's mainly boys, I hope you'll be good with that." I just smiled widely, "My other school was just guys too, so I'll be just fine. I was captain in both sports, not trying to brag." He laughed, "I would brag if I was you." He tossed the ball back at Jessica who walked over with a huff. "You should have taken team captain," I looked at her, "Why so I compete with you for it all the time? I don't want that, you're great at volleyball, I just got to play a few more years than you. Doesn't mean I deserve the spot, besides you know how much I hate it." "Yeah but I would at least get to play with you, I don't play those other sports."
"You get to hang out with me at home, I know we have no classes together but you can't force me into volleyball." She had a small pout, I rolled my eyes and wrapped my arm around her shoulders. "You'll be ok, Jess, you've been fine without me for a while, me not being in the sport isn't gonna kill ya." "Feels like it will," "So dramatic you are,"
After gym class I went to the teacher's office, he was sitting there with the flyers on his table. "Here you go, I hope you come, it would be great to have a new face on the team. And hey maybe you'll get us some wins." I laughed and took them, smiling. "Thank you, if I get it I might try out for captain," "I'm sure you'll get it, well you better get to class." I nodded and left the room, I went to the locker room and saw it was already emptied, I took my bag to the showers and stripped, putting my clothes in the bag and getting showered. I wanted to take my time since I knew my hair dried fast and I wasn't needed to class for almost an hour. Once I was done I wrapped myself with a towel and dried my hair with another, I always brought two towels with me; Was I ever going to use the schools? Hell to the fuck no.
Once I was all dried I got dressed, sighing and checking the time, I still had twenty minutes until class. I went to my locker grabbed what I needed for art class and just sat in the lounge room, it was just me once again and I liked it that way. I was doodling in my sketchbook until the bell finally rang, my hair was completely dry, you wouldn't even know if I even took a shower. I walked into art class and sat down, looking at the board. I wasn't too excited about art class, it wasn't the easiest subject in my opinion, so at least I would have a little challenge at this school.
Chapter Text
It's been a week since I met the Cullens, and I knew there were two more that I had yet to meet. I saw them from afar, Alice always smiled and tried inviting me over but I wasn't too sure about it. While I was walking to the lunchroom Alice skipped over and put her arm through mine. "Sit with us, please?" I laughed and shrugged, "Why not?" We walked in and I grabbed my tray before she pulled me over to their table. It was only her and Jasper so far, I sat down next to her, and she was next to Jasper. "Hey, Jasper, good to see you again." He nodded with a smile, "You too, Natalie." I could hear the door behind us open and looked to the side, seeing Emmett, Rosalie, and Edward walk in. They came over and sat down, I don't think Rosalie had noticed me yet.
Emmett gave me a fist bump and Edward looked at me a little confused before giving me a friendly smile. Rosalie finally looked at me, a bitchy glare on her face before it went away. Edward looked at her, eyebrows furrowed as she stared at me. I got a little self-conscious under her stare and cleared my throat, pulling my shirt down a little. She snapped out of whatever she was in, putting her hand out to me, "I'm Rosalie Hale, nice to meet you." I shook it, her skin felt warmer than the rest of them but still cold. "Natalie Stanley, nice to meet you Rose-Rosalie." She smiled at me, her eyes shining. "You can call me Rose, that's ok." I blushed and smiled, I realized we were still holding hands and pulled away slowly.
They looked at each other, almost speaking to each other. I started eating, I could see my friend group looking at me. Well friend group was a broad statement, the only friends I would say I had over there were Jess and Angela. I looked at Rosalie who smiled at me, I smiled back and finished my food. I got up and took care of it, Mike getting up at the same time and coming over. "Why don't you sit with us for the rest of lunch?" I looked at him and furrowed my eyebrows, "Why would I do that?" "Because we're your friends, they aren't." I looked at him, shaking my head. "The only friends I have at that table are Jessica and Angela, you are not one of them Mike. And whether they are my friends or not, that's not up to you, or anybody but me. Do you understand me? Go sit down, I will not be joining you." I pushed past him and sat back down, he sat back down and I could tell he was telling them.
I wasn't sure if he would tell them what I said exactly about them not being my friends, but I knew he would tell them that I refused to go over. I looked at Rosalie, she had a frustrated look on her face, and they all did. "Everything ok?" They nodded, "Yeah, we're good." I smiled and they smiled back, a part of me thought that maybe they knew what happened, I wasn't far from them and people were already gossiping quietly about what was said because of course they were. I looked at the time and sighed, "I gotta go, I got tryouts for wrestling. See you guys later," I smiled at them and got up, they said bye and Rosalie didn't seem like she wanted me to go. I walked out and headed out to the gym, I got dressed in what the flyer said I had to wear. I walked in and saw the captain and a couple of other guys in line.
The coach smiled as he saw me, I went in line and the captain looked at me before looking at the coach. They mumbled between each other before the captain ended up just shrugging. I ended up going first against one of the bigger guys, if I wasn't captain and hadn't won many championships in my last school I would think he was setting me up for failure. I knew he was, but he didn't know how good I was. The minute the coach whistled he tried tackling me to the ground, I overpowered him with my legs and flipped him onto his back. The coach whistled again and I got up, "Good job, Natalie!" I shook the kid's hand and we got back in line, I watched as the kid easily overpowered a couple of the guys before once again losing to someone as big as him.
Each guy I went against lost and I had yet to break a sweat, I wasn't bragging but this was easy work. The coach whistled and clapped his hands together, "Not only were these regular tryouts because some of the kids are graduating, but we were looking for a new captain. I didn't think we were going to find them so soon, but we did. Give it up for Natalie Stanley, your new captain! The rest of you come back at the end of the day and I will let you know if you made the team, Nick, head to class." I knew I was supposed to stay, I followed the coach into his office. "Ok, I already know you're gonna make the football team. Whether you'll be captain will depend on tryouts, I'm gonna order your captain wrestling fit and after football tryouts, we'll get your football." I nodded with a smile, "Thanks coach," He nodded at me, I gave him my sizes and headed out, going to my next class. Since tryouts were in my free period I had art, then another free period then home.
After school, my dad picked us up, and I was silent in the car. I knew once we got home Jessica was going to bombard me with questions. "So what did you learn today?" I looked at my dad, "Absolutely nothing," We pulled up home and I got out before he could say anything, I went upstairs and went to my bedroom. I put my bag down and stepped into my bathroom, I turned on the shower and stripped before stepping in. I sighed and leaned my head against the cool tiles, I heard my bedroom door open and then the bathroom door creak. "Nat?" "What, Jess?" "I just wanted to talk to you, about lunch." "I knew you would, what about it?" "Mike told us what you said, that Angela and I were your only friends at the table. That the Cullens could be yours and that you weren't gonna sit with us, but I know pieces are missing. I just wanna know what they are."
"He came over, obviously waiting to get me alone, he doesn't eat as slow as I do. He asked me to sit with you guys for the rest of lunch, and I asked why I would do that. He said you guys were my friends and that they weren't, I was honest, I only see you and Angela as my friends, I don't know them well and Mike pisses me off. I also told him that it wasn't up to anyone whether they were my friends or not, I asked if he understood and told him to sit down, that I wouldn't be following." She was silent for a moment, "We didn't even know he was going to ask you to come over, I knew he was watching you but he always does that. He wasn't right to step in, and I will tell him that." "You don't have to, I'm a big girl Jess." "You're my sister and he only met you because of me, he's becoming too much for you and I will be doing something about it."
"You can try, Jess." "Enjoy your shower," She closed the door behind her and I finished up, coming out of the bathroom in my towel. I towel-dried my hair with a different towel before getting dressed, I sighed and laid on my bed. I grabbed my phone and saw I had a new message, it was from an unknown number. 'Hey it's Rose, I got your number from Angela Webber. I hope that's ok' I smiled at her message, and I typed her back. 'It's completely ok, you could have just asked me.' Her reply was almost immediate, 'I didn't have time, you had tryouts and I didn't get a chance to see you. I was wondering if you wanted to come over to our house? I'll come pick you up, my mom offered to cook you some food.' I thought about it, being stuck in this home with my parents, who are always on the brink of an argument because of how stressed they were or seeing Rose. 'Come get me,' I sent her the address and put on my shoes, I put on a coat and walked downstairs.
My parents saw me, my mom smiling. "I'm just about to cook dinner," "I won't be eating here, I'm heading to a friend's house." My mom looked at me confused, "I didn't say that was ok, did I?" "Since when did I need your permission? They are coming to pick me up, so don't worry gas won't be a problem." "That's not the point, Natalie, you're supposed to talk to me." "Well I didn't, her mom is feeding me there. I can't be cooped up in this house with you guys," "Take your sister to Angelas, then." I laughed, "I have other friends that aren't my sisters, thanks though. I will see you later," I walked out the door just as Rosalie's red car pulled up, I smiled at her as she got out. I heard the door behind me and looked at the door, my mom standing there. Jessica was looking out the window, Rosalie came over and I hugged her. "Let's get out of here, think I can stay the night?" Rosalie nodded with a wide smile, "You can sleep in my room, that's ok." Jessica was immediately at the door with a bag, I smiled at her and we walked to the car.
Rosalie opened the door for me and I got in, she gently closed it and got in herself. She started driving to her house, the town fading and trees being the only thing we could see. "We live just outside of town, our house is beautiful, I can't wait for you to see it." I smiled and she pulled into a hidden driveway, she parked into the garage and got out. She walked over to my door and opened it for me, taking my bag. We walked in and she kept her hand gently on my back, the house was warm and I could smell food cooking. We walked up the steps and I saw the graduation caps and Rosalie just smiled at me, I smiled back. We walked up to the second floor which is where their kitchen was, which was crazy to me.
Alice ran over to me and hugged me, I hugged back and noticed she was still cold as ice. "Natalie, this is Carlisle and Esme, my adoptive parents." Carlisle came over and shook my hand, his skin was as cold as his kids. Esme came over and gave me a gentle hug, I wasn't surprised to feel her just as cold. Emmett came over, "Hey Natalie! How did tryouts go?" "They went well, I'm now the wrestling captain and next week is football tryouts, the coach already thinks I'll make the team, just depends if I'll make captain." "Damn, captain already? That's dope as hell, Natalie." "Language," He smiled and laughed, fist-bumping me and I smiled at him. "Dinner will be a little while longer, why don't you just hang out in Rose's room?" I nodded at Esme and Rosalie took me upstairs, "Another set of stairs?" She laughed and we went into her room, it was fancy, and the bedding looked expensive. It smelt like her too, she set my bag down and sat on her bed.
I came over and sat down next to her, our hands were almost touching. I slowly took her hand into mine, causing her to intertwine our fingers. "Rose, can I ask you something?" "Of course, Nat, you can ask me anything." "Uh, this is probably a weird question; Why are you warmer than your family? I can tell you're cold, but you're warmer than them." She looked at me, almost trying to find an answer. "I can't answer that right now, but I will soon. I promise." I nodded with a smile, we started talking about our family, I told her about my old school and why I was going to Forks High now.
Once dinner was done I walked down and saw the plate for me, "Sorry we aren't eating with you, we ate right when we came home." I looked at Rose, "You guys didn't have to make a second dinner for me, that's a lot of work." "Esme loves cooking, and she offered when I asked if you could come over." I smiled and sat down, Rosalie sat next to me and I started eating, humming at the taste. "This tastes amazing!" "I'll let Esme know for you," I smiled and she smiled back, I hadn't eaten a homemade meal in so long, it's usually cheap frozen stuff or canned foods at home. My parents never worried about the right things, like food or bills, they worried about what they thought was important.
Once I was done Rosalie took care of my plate, cleaning it off for me. I tried protesting but she insisted, taking it before I could. She took me back to her room, we laid on the bed looking up at the ceiling. "You know, my sister gossips a lot about you, I know you guys know that. She always would say you were, excuse my language, a massive bitch." She laughed, I wanted to hear it all the time it was majestic. "Yeah, I am usually, just not with my family. Or... you." "Or me, yeah, I think that's what shocks her the most. I sat with you one day and you already invited me over, and now I'm spending the night." She looked at me with a smile, we turned to face each other. "Do you wanna talk about what happened at home? I could see your moms face, and yours." "I told her I was eating at a friends, didn't specify, because I've never needed to. My parents, they are struggling, financially. It's why I'm at Forks High, not at my other school, where I was actually learning something, here I don't. But, my parents are always fighting and I swear they're gonna divorce."
I took a breath before continuing, "I was already stressed from what had happened at lunch and then my dad asking me the question every day if I learned anything, of course not. So I came down excited to just get out of the tense house, and she questioned me and then said I had to take Jessica to Angela's too, thinking that's where I was going because I couldn't have my own friends in her head. I don't know why she followed me out there, probably just to annoy me." She put her hand on my cheek, her thumb rubbing the skin softly. "I'm sorry you had to deal with that, if it helps you're always welcome here." "Can I move in?" I laughed to show I was joking, "Sure," I shook my head with a smile, "I was kidding," "I know but I was serious, you don't have to now, but maybe eventually you can live with us. Get out of that house," "Maybe one day Rose, we'll see." She smiled at me and rolled my eyes with a smile.
Chapter Text
It's been two weeks since I've stayed with the Cullens and to be honest, I'm almost there every day. It's peaceful there, quiet and no one is fighting. Well sometimes Rosalie and Emmett start to fight, but that's cause the big guy is basically a ten-year-old. It's how Jessica and I bicker, so I don't mind it. I also like it because I get to hang out with Rosalie all the time, well I hang out with all of them but I mainly hang out with Rose. I've started to develop feelings for her, I mean can you blame me? She's a beautiful blonde goddess, though I don't have the confidence to tell her that.
She probably knows that already, she does look in the mirror. Right now I was being forced to eat dinner with my parents, I didn't mind eating it with Jessica, but with them I hated it. They were always glaring at each other and Esme has spoiled me, this once-good frozen lasagna now tastes awful. I understood that we were struggling, but if they would save up instead of spending on cars they didn't need or alcohol they didn't need, we could have actual good meals. I would be dead if I told them that though. "So girls, learn anything today at school?" I see my dad is wanting to fill the silence. I finished my last bite, pushing my plate away, looking at Jessica. "Yeah Jess, did you learn anything?" My mom shook her head, "That question was also for you Natalie." "Oh was it? Because I distinctly remember going to a school so far behind where I used to go to that I can't learn anything anymore." She slammed her fork down, causing Jessica to jump but I remained still.
"That is it! I am sick of your attitude! You know we're struggling financially!" "You're struggling financially because you and dad have an alcohol problem and gamble! If you spent your money on actual fucking important things, like food, or my education we wouldn't be where the FUCK we are!" "You do not talk to me that way!" I stood up, my chair scratching the floor. "I will talk to you the way you deserve mother! Treat people the way you wanna be treated, right?! You two are the reason we are in this situation! I shouldn't have to lose out on my schooling, in my fucking education because you wanted some fucking drinks or the thrill of pushing a fucking button! Or a-fucking-nother car!" I didn't flinch when I saw her hand raise, I waited for it but it stayed in the air.
"That's it, I'm leaving. I'm eighteen, I can legally leave." I ran up the stairs, locking the door behind me and pushing my dresser in front of the door so they couldn't come in. I called Rosalie as I packed my things, grabbing my school stuff and clothes. I could hear them trying to get in, "Hey! Everything ok?" "I need you to come get me, remember when you offered me to live with you?" "Yeah?" "Can I? My mom almost hit me, and I just need out. I'm throwing everything out my window when you get here. Bring Emmett." "This is how I'm gonna tell you that thing I couldn't, promise me you won't freak out." "I promise." She hung up and then was in front of me, I let out a scared quiet scream. "Holy shit, how did you do that?" She started throwing everything down, I looked outside and saw Emmett but no car. "I'm a vampire, Nat. We all are, I'm gonna carry you home, Edward and Emmett got your stuff. Is that everything?"
I looked around and grabbed my photos of Jessica and I, and the blanket my grandma made me when I was a kid. "Ready." She dropped out the window and we ran off, I held everything tightly as the wind rushed by us. I wasn't sure if this was a good idea, I just found out the girl I had a massive crush on was a vampire, and now I'm living with her vampire family. I must be nuts, I really must be, because as we run through the forest I'm not scared, I feel safe. We ran up to the house and she walked in, Esme coming over. "The boys put all her stuff in the spare room, everything ok? You didn't explain, just took your brothers and ran." She set me down gently, keeping her hand on my back.
"While having dinner, which I was forced to have with them, my dad asked what we had learned in school today. That was always his way of filling the silence or getting my mother to stop glaring at him. Well I don't get to learn anything at this school, I never can, because it's so far behind my old one. Well, I looked at Jess and asked what she learned, which seemed to set my mom off because the question was also for me. I reminded her that I could not learn anything because of the school I was going to. Well, that made it worse, because I was proving her right. She ended up yelling at me about them struggling financially, I reminded her once again that we were only struggling because they have a drinking and gambling problem, and on top of that always buy cars even when there's nothing wrong with the one they had. She went to slap me, wouldn't be the first time, but she didn't. That drew the line and I started packing my bags, and then Rosalie helped me and here we are." I took a breath since it was a lot of talking, and I hadn't thought about the explanation to her family.
Esme pulled me into a hug, rubbing my back. "I'm so sorry that happened to you, you are completely welcome here, even if you weren't Rose's mate." I furrowed my eyebrows and felt the hand on my back tense, I looked at Rose and she had a worried look on her face. Esme pulled away and looked at us, covering her mouth. "Oh dear, I am so sorry. I'm just gonna..." She pointed behind her before she was gone in an instant. I looked at Rose and she looked upstairs, I nodded and we started walking. We went to her room and sat on her bed, she took a breath and looked at me. "I wasn't gonna tell you yet, not until I knew what our relationship was, I didn't wanna spring it on you and make you think you had to date me because you don't, it's your choice." I nodded, waiting for her to continue.
"When I heard about you from the others, they talked about your blood, that it had no smell to them, that they were almost convinced you were also a vampire but could hear your heartbeat. It's why Jasper has such an easy time around you because your blood doesn't call to him. I couldn't believe it, and a part of me wanted to meet you, but I also didn't want us around a human, they did not listen obviously. But when you and I made eye contact, I knew then, we were mates, you were meant for me and I was meant for you. Just like Jasper is Alice's mate, and Esme's is Carlisle's. I didn't wanna scare you off, telling you it right away, that's why I'm warmer than them because you're human still it wants me to seem more human to get you to trust me to turn. It's just how vampires are with their mates unless they're also vampires. We don't have to rush into anything you don't wanna do, I'm ok with going slow if you even want a relationship."
She watched me once she stopped rambling, I had listened to every word closely, of course, I thought it was nuts to be meant for one person, and if you hated that person and they were your mate? What an awful time, but maybe you could never hate them. "I've had a crush on you for weeks now, of course, I think we should go at a slow pace, get to know each other better, go on dates, things like that." She nodded with a smile, "You're giving me a chance, that's all I could ever care about." I held her hand softly, smiling at her. "You're giving me a chance too, Rose." I kissed her cheek softly, "Take me to my new room?" She nodded and we got up, I started walking with her, still holding her hand.
We walked into a white bedroom, a plain white queen size bed. It had a computer and TV in it, I walked over to the computer to see it was a nice high-tech gaming PC. "Jesus, is this supposed to be in this room?" "Yeah, in every guest room, there's one, because we wanted the guests, if we had any, to have a good time." "Holy shit! That's awesome!" She smiled at me and I looked outside, sighing at the view. I felt her come over to me, putting her hand gently on my back. I looked back at her, giving her a small smile. "I should probably call Jess soon, let her know I'm ok." She nodded and leaned her head on my shoulder. "You will also see her at school tomorrow, but I can give you privacy to call her." I shook my head, "No need, you can sit with me." She nodded and we went over to the bed, sitting down.
I grabbed my phone and called Jess, she answered quickly. "Hey, where are you?" "I'm with them, I'm gonna stay here for a while at least. I can't be in that house," "Yeah, you missed out on the biggest fight in the century." "Why do you say that, Jess?" She was silent for a moment, I could hear rustling before a door locked. "Dad divorced mom and kicked her out of the house because she refused to go look for you. She said you made your choice and she wouldn't have... I don't wanna say it." "No, you can say it to me, I won't blame you." She took a breath, I didn't know what it could be. "She said that she wouldn't have a useless dyke in the house that they should have aborted in the first place." I sat there for a moment, I knew my mom wasn't too happy about me being the way I was, but I didn't think she viewed me like that.
"Wow, that's definitely something. Was it only because she wouldn't look for me?" I knew she knew why I was asking, I just needed to know if he viewed me the same way. "I'm not sure, you'll probably have to ask him yourself that." "I'm not coming back, just because mom isn't there doesn't mean it's an environment I want myself in, I don't want you in that either, but I know you'll never leave dad's side." "You're right, I won't. I know you all weren't close, but I don't see why you can't live here." "Because Jess, we're both eighteen, I get that you won't leave, I completely understand that. But I need to distance myself from him and mom, who's to say that tomorrow she's not gonna apologize and he brings her back in the house?" "Who's to say she is?"
"That's my point, we don't know and I can't risk it right now. I'll see you at school, ok? I just wanted to let you know I was safe." "Can we trust them?" "I can, I don't know about you." I hung up the call and sighed, putting my head in my hands. I felt Rosalie's hand on my thigh, I knew she heard it. I didn't wanna cry, I didn't want her to win, even if she didn't know I knew. "You can cry, Nat, it's ok." I just shook my head, "I can't, I can't be weak because of her." "You aren't weak for crying, you're strong for crying. Brave people cry, brave people are vulnerable, ok?" The tears started to fall and she pulled me into a hug. "It's ok, it'll be ok Nat." Her hand was on the back of my head, holding me close to her. "I mean, I know she didn't like that I was gay, but saying she should have aborted me, which would have meant Jess too, I didn't realize she had hated me that much." She rocked me softly with her, leaning her chin on my head gently.
"People say things they don't mean, and maybe she doesn't actually hate you. But I can't speak for her, and I don't want to defend her. I think you just brought the worse out of her today, by telling her the truth." I sniffled, "It isn't the first time this has happened though. This is just the first time I stood up for myself which is why I think she knew that no matter what she did, I wouldn't back down." She ran her fingers through my hair, sighing softly. "I understand not wanting to go back, even though your mom is gone. You can't trust that your dad won't bring her back, because in most cases they do." I nodded and she pulled away slowly, putting her hands on my face.
"You're gonna be ok, I promise. Why don't you take a shower, relax and maybe watch a movie? We can do it here, or go to the theater room in the basement. It's got a bed so if you fall asleep, you'll be ok." I nodded, "That sounds good, you'll join me?" I blushed and cleared my throat, "For the movie," She laughed and nodded, "Of course, I will be in my room when you're ready. If you need me just say my name, ok?" I nodded and she stood up, I followed suit and walked to the bathroom as she walked out of the room. I looked around and saw everything that was already in there, I started the shower as I stripped, jumping in.
I decided it was going to be a long one, I wasn't sure how long I had been in there but by the time the water was getting cold I started washing everything. I got out and started drying my hair, I wrapped my body in a towel and walked out of the bathroom. I got dressed into some loose shorts and a tank top, I didn't really care for a bra in case I fell asleep I didn't want to be uncomfortable in my sleep. I walked out of the bedroom and started heading to Rosalie's, I gently knocked and heard her tell me to come in. I walked in and saw her in something more comfortable, wearing silky shorts and a tank top with a sheer robe that matched. I smiled at how beautiful she looked, "You look gorgeous, Rose." She smiled at me, "So do you, Natalie. Ready for movie night?" I nodded and she gently grabbed my hand before taking me downstairs, the basement was nice and finished, like I expected it to be.
There were a couple of rooms down here, I would probably end up asking but didn't feel like it right now. She opened the door and I saw a large theater room, it wasn't as big as one you would drive to but it had a bed in the middle and multiple reclining chairs. I looked around with a large smile, she pulled me to the bed and grabbed the remote that was on it. "What do you wanna watch?" "Hm, Mamma mia?" She laughed and nodded, turning it on. I laid back and she followed suit, I felt my body practically melt into the memory foam. I didn't think I would make to the end of the movie, I was already feeling drowsy. "Rose..." She looked at me with a smile, "Promise if I fall asleep you'll stay with me until I wake up?" She nodded, "Of course, Nat." I smiled and focused on the movie, making it halfway through before falling asleep.
Chapter Text
Getting out of Rosalie's car was one of the most nerve-wracking things I've done since being at the school. She intertwined her fingers with mine, I walked past my group of friends and smiled at Jess. She smiled at me and I walked inside with her, she took me to my locker and I threw in my bag. I grabbed what I needed and kissed her cheek, "I'll see you at lunch?" She nodded with a smile and I headed to class, at least I would have Jasper. I could hear the people whisper about Rose and I, I didn't really care about it all. Gossiping didn't bother me, I knew my sister would hear it all. I was excited about the wrestling we had later, I could kick some ass and just let loose. I wasn't sure if I was actually gonna go against someone since I was a girl and I knew how some of the guys thought.
School went by pretty quickly, before I knew it, it was lunchtime. I grabbed my tray and walked by Jess' table, I sat by Rosalie who immediately smiled at me. "The amount of times today that I've been told a guy could change me is crazy, one I am literally single, two if I was dating you nothing could change me because you are gorgeous." Rose smiled widely and leaned her head on my shoulder. "Yeah, I'm pretty sure if I didn't terrify people before they even speak to me I would have gotten that too. I'm sorry me holding your hand did that to you," "Meh, I don't mind, let them think I'm dating you, it'll make it easier when they see you taking me out on dates." She laughed, throwing her head back. I knew it was a shock to see for everyone who was looking at the lunch table, but for me, it was the best sight I could ever see.
"You're so bold sometimes, did you know that?" "I try," She looked at me, licking her lips softly. I quickly looked at my food with a blush, starting to eat. As I ate I could feel eyes on me, I looked up from my plate as I bit into a carrot, seeing Jess looking at me. I smiled and waved, she smiled back. Mike was also looking at me but I just ignored him, I looked at Edward, I remembered when Rosalie told me about what everyone's abilities were. "Hey, I'm not trying to bother you, but can you tell me what Mike is thinking? It's driving me nuts with him staring at me." He looked at me apologetically and looked at Mike before looking back at me. "I don't think you really wanna hear about it... it's not great." I shrugged and he glanced at Rose, "He thinks your relationship with Rosalie, is well gross. I don't think he means it in a homophobic way, I think he thinks it in a she's a Cullen way. He wants to convince you to break up and get with him." I sighed loudly and rolled my eyes, "Thank you, Edward." He nodded at me and I finished my food.
I went to get up but I saw Mike stand with me, so I sat back down. "Hey, Emmett, will you follow me to take care of this? I can't deal with Mike yet," He nodded and stood with me, Mike shrunk down in his seat as we walked over. I put my tray away and walked back with them, "Thank you, I would have been suspended if he tried talking to me." He laughed and we sat back down, Rose's hand found mine and I smiled. "Well, don't you have wrestling with him? Maybe you can beat his ass today," I laughed and shrugged, "Maybe, we'll definitely have to see." He nodded with a laugh, "I might have to skip class and watch, it would definitely be funny to see that." I rolled my eyes at him as the boys agreed, it shocked me a little with Edward, but I didn't mind becoming friends with him. I kept Rosalie's hand tightly in mine, I wasn't ready for her to go to class, I wanted to be with her for the rest of the day.
I had wrestling right after this, and I was at least excited about that since it meant that I had free periods. "Are you skipping with them?" Rose looked at me, "Do you want me to?" "You can see how well I could protect you," She rolled her eyes, a smile on her face. "Yeah, I'll skip with them, it would be nice to see you." I smiled widely and she kissed the back of my hand, I leaned my head on her shoulder. It was only a few more minutes of us just talking until the bell rang, we got up and I headed to the gym. They went inside and sat on the bleachers, the teachers didn't really tell them off since there was no way they were ever behind. I went into the locker room and changed, sighing softly. It wasn't a flattering outfit, and I knew Rosalie was going to laugh at me when we got home, but it was the price I had to pay.
I walked out first, looking over at her. She bit the inside of her hand and punched Emmett's arm, I could see faint cracks on it. He had let out a belly laugh that shook the gymnasium when he saw me. The rest of the boys came out and the coach blew his whistle, I could see the Cullen's flinch but they recovered quickly. He talked about what we would be doing and that we had a game in two months so we had to get on our A game. The coach gave us twins and I happened to be stuck with Mike, which was fine with me. He tried to protest but was shut up quickly by the coach, "She's your captain, Newton! Don't be a scaredy cat, at least try and win." I got into position and so did he, "You know, I don't like you and that Cullen together, she looks like she wants to eat you." I smirked and leaned a little closer, "I really hope she does eat me, have you seen how long her fingers are too?" He blushed and cleared his throat, you would think he got the memo, but he didn't.
"How about after this, I show you how a guy does it. Go on a date with me and I can rock your world," Before I could talk the coach blew his whistle, and I immediately tackled Mike to the ground, slamming his head down. I flipped him bent his leg back farther than it should go and kneeled on his back. I stayed like that until he tapped out, I stood up and looked down on him. "Talk to me like that again and you will find out just how hard I can punch. Leave me and Rosalie alone, Mike, I won't ever date you, and neither will my sister. Go find someone else to harass. You aren't the 'it' guy anymore, and I'm gay." I walked away, watching the other teams, seeing their forms while Mike stayed on the ground. "I would go take him to the nurse, coach." He looked at Mike and waved him off, "He'll be fine until, after class, guys like him deserve it." He winked at me and went to the winners, explaining why the others lost.
I looked over at Rosalie and she winked at me, though I could tell they were a little upset at what he had said. Emmett gave me a proud smile, clapping quietly. I rolled my eyes with a laugh and continued wrestling with another student, winning easily again. Once class was done I knew I would be fine to leave school, but because I couldn't leave without Rosalie I just sat in the library waiting for her classes to be over with. I knew she cared about appearances, so she wouldn't skip the rest of the school day unless she had to. She already warned me that I would have to drive one of their cars tomorrow since they wouldn't be going. It was supposed to finally be sunny, so I would be hanging out at school by myself. I thought about ditching with them but she told me no, so there went that idea.
I wasn't excited about going to school without them, I was hoping that Mike would leave me alone. If not I would just only hang around Jessica, I don't think he was stupid enough to do it in front of her. Once the bell rang that the school was over I got up, walking to Rosalie's class. Once she walked out the door my hand found hers, we walked out the front doors and to her car. I got in as she did, I buckled up and she started driving. "I'm so driving this baby tomorrow," She gave me a look, raising her eyebrows. "Who said you could drive my car?" "I did, and I know you won't tell me no. I'm a safe driver, you know that." She rolled her eyes with a smile, "Fine, but if I find a scratch, I'll punish you." I blushed and licked my lips, "No complaints there," She laughed and pulled into the house. "You're a perv," "Yeah well that's why you like me," "I don't think I agree with that." I laughed and we walked inside. Esme came over and hugged us, kissing my cheek.
"Dinner is almost done, go freshen up." I nodded and headed upstairs, hearing Rosalie following behind me. We walked into my room and I went into my closet, I decided I would shower before bed so I just put on some shorts and a tank top, taking my bra off. I walked out and she looked at my legs and slowly brought her eyes to my face. I just smiled at her, "Like what you see?" She just nodded, smiling at me. I rolled my eyes and sat next to her, bumping my arm into her shoulder. "You're such a dork," "I've been called many things, but dork? Not one of them," I laughed, "Well that's cause you don't show people your dorky side, I'm just lucky." She nodded, holding my hand softly. "I'm the lucky one," "And a sap too!" She laughed and nodded towards the door, "Dinner," I got up with her and we walked downstairs, I sat at the table and Esme gave me my plate and a glass of water. "Thank you, Esme." She smiled widely at me, I started eating while Rosalie talked to me.
I loved hearing her talk, so I didn't mind it at all. I nodded along, taking all of it in. Once I was finished Esme took my dishes and cleaned them with the rest of them, I leaned back in the chair with a sigh. "Thank you all, again, for letting me stay here." Esme waved me off, "You're Rosalie's mate, even if you weren't, it really wouldn't have been a problem, I think I speak for everyone when I say we really enjoy you being here." I smiled and Rosalie nodded in agreement.
Chapter Text
It's been three months since graduation, I had watched my sister be rewarded with valedictorian. I also had to see my father and mother there, I had learned that he did end up taking her back. I wasn't happy with it, so I told them I would be no longer keeping contact with them. Jessica also moved in with Angela, who I learned is her girlfriend, and they will be going to the same college. I was happy for them, really happy for them. I had become friends with a girl who joined late, we all did, her name is Bella. She is Edward's mate, but they were waiting to change her, as they were also doing with me. I was supposed to be turned after their wedding, which was a couple of weeks ago.
Bella came back, she was sick and was pregnant with something we didn't know was possible. It sent a frenzy in the wolf pack, Jacob, one of Bella's best friends was furious, he had been since Edward and Bella were dating. You would think the men in this town would get a hint, but I guess I was wrong. Bella wanted to keep a baby, and I knew for a fact that it took a lot of convincing from Edward because the child was killing her from the inside out. Rosalie and I stood by Bella's decision, I knew why Rosalie had felt that way. This is why I had frozen my eggs without her knowing, and in the future when I was turned I would pay for a surrogate, I already had someone in mind for their sperm.
I had to do a lot of research but found one of Rosalie's siblings' son who was actually donating his sperm. I reached out and asked if he would be up for it, he agreed and Emmett helped me pay him. Now in a couple of years, I was going to have a child, but in case anything happened to me before I was able to turn, I asked Emmett to have it happen and adopt the child, then at some point tell Rosalie. He agreed, I also put it in my will as Emmett knows what to do. I knew she would probably get a little mad at me about what was happening, but I knew I needed to do it, because I loved Rosalie and I wanted kids with her and I knew she wanted kids too. I have a feeling that even if I'm not there, Rosalie will know what's going on, she will know that the baby is mine.
But let's stop talking about the possibilities of my future because right now, I am not convinced I have one. Here I was, watching as my family was forced to stay inside while the wolves broke the treaty by not letting them off their property. They are watching them like hawks, any time they try going out of the house, they attack. This is why I left, I drove to Canada and went hunting, and now I'm on my way back with six deer and three mountain lions in the back of my truck. I was scared, of course, trying to them into the garage, who was to tell me that they wouldn't harm me. I didn't trust Jacob, nor his Alpha, they were maniacs, the only ones I had begun to trust were Leah and Seth, but he seems like he does what anyone says. They left the pack and are keeping watch on us, which I was so thankful for. They surrounded my truck as I pulled in, I went into the garage and the Cullens were by my side immediately. "I didn't shoot them with a gun, just a really strong tranq. Carlisle told me it would work for you guys, and that it shouldn't affect you. So please, drink." They took it out of my truck and started eating, I could see them get better already at it.
It concerned me with how much it affected them, I was so concerned about Rosalie because of course I was. I walked inside and sat by Bella's side, I had become close to her, even closer than I already was. "They're feeding now, sorry I didn't get here any sooner." She shook her head and held my hands, "You did the best thing, they can eat because of you." She winced and held her stomach, she was drinking human blood which had been helping her but we were running low. I wanted to get her some, but they said if the wolves smelt it, they might try and kill me. She was on her last one, and it worried me. She was getting up as Edward was coming in, I didn't realize it but she was falling, holding her stomach. He caught her and looked at me, "He's coming!" Carlisle and Alice helped her into the room and I stayed by Rosalie's side.
She was telling me what was happening, that they were giving her morphine and cutting her open. Alice had to leave and take Jasper all the way up to the attic. I knew he was struggling with the smells, Rosalie tensed and ran in there, coming out with the baby. "They're doing CPR," I nodded and we went and cleaned the baby, sitting on the couch while we waited. Carlisle walked in and sighed, covered in blood. "She's dying, he's giving her morphine, I can hear her changing but with the morphine, she looks dead. I think the wolves are going to think she is, so prepare yourselves." It wasn't long before Jacob broke into the house, it was so quick and I didn't waste a second before jumping on the wolf. I had a knife in my pocket, I knew it wouldn't do much, but I was going to protect Rosalie and that baby.
The minute Jacob transformed, other wolves came in, and I jumped on his back. I grabbed my knife and stabbed him, he flipped me off his back. I kept the knife in my hand, ripping it out. Just as he bit my neck and shoulder, meaning I would only have a few minutes to live I stabbed him in the neck and sliced his throat open. I pushed his body off of me and Rosalie ran over to me, I noticed she didn't have the baby anymore. Carlisle ran to me, I looked at him and I knew I couldn't be saved. I shakily put my hand on Rosalie's cheek, I felt cold, and I knew I couldn't speak. I was numb from the pain, Rosalie started biting me, she was trying to do everything she could to save me. I loved her for that, she was doing everything because she loved me.
I could feel my eyes closing, my breath slowly stopping. The last thing that was left was Rosalie telling me how much she loved me and that she would never forget me. Now, imagine my surprise when I wake up in a completely different bed in a completely different life.
Chapter 7
Summary:
She wakes up in the world of First Kill, where she is a hunter who is to watch over the Burns family. They don't hunt vampires unless it's a necessity, they know of the Fairmonts'.
Chapter Text
I sat in bed, I looked at my body and around the room. I wasn't in Rosalie's bed, I didn't hear the Cullens walking around. I slowly got up and saw photos of me and people I didn't recognize, I saw my parents, but there was no Jessica, I was the only child. I checked the room and saw photos of people I could tell were friends, I thought about everything, I remembered meeting them, meeting with the guild for our new job. They wanted us to watch the Burns family since this was a large job for them. We didn't hunt vampires, we were part of the guild that if they weren't murdering or turning people they weren't threats to us. I shook my head, it must have been a dream.
Of course, I had to convince myself that, I could still remember the weight of the dead wolf against my body. I could still feel the pain, the feeling of Rosalie, it was a very real dream. I jumped in the shower, hoping to rinse it all off. Once I was done I got dressed and ran down the stairs, I knew where everything was, like it was muscle memory. I saw my mom and dad sitting at the table, eating breakfast while there was a plate waiting for me. "Hey, baby! Breakfast just got done, so eat." I smiled and sat down, eating pretty quickly. I knew I had to get to school soon, and I didn't wanna be late. Once I was done I grabbed my backpack and keys, "Remember, watch closely on the Burns girl, people will be talking about her. She's new, and so are you, but don't be too noticeable, ok?" I nodded "I know dad, I'll be fine. Keep my head down but my eyes everywhere, I got this, I already have ten kills. I'll be safe, I promise. There's a reason we are secret to everyone but the head guild." He smiled at me and I walked out, I would of course be watching out for any vampires.
It would be weird to see daywalkers, but I learned that there was a legacy family, they are the rarest vampires, and hardest to kill. But they've gone unnoticed, so they are obviously doing something right. If I remember correctly it was the Fairmonts? Something like that name, maybe I'll get to meet one, that would be pretty cool. There was a voice in the back of my head on the way to school, telling me to find Rosalie. I didn't know why the dream felt so real, as if I spent years really with a family of vampires, falling in love with one and dying for a vampire baby. Maybe Dream Me is just crazy brave, I shook my head and pulled up into the school. I parked and got out, listening to my surroundings. I learned to keep my senses heightened and to always be on the lookout even if you can't see every angle.
I walked into school and saw a few people looking at me, and others smiling at me. I wouldn't get close to anyone, there really wasn't a point in it, since I knew eventually I would be leaving. Once the Burns were done with their mission, we were done with ours. I saw Calliope sitting in the grass reading, a few guys had accidentally thrown a ball at her. It didn't make sense to me why they were hanging outside when the bell would ring any minute. I walked in and passed a short girl and her taller friend, I could tell I caught her eye. I looked behind my shoulder to see her looking at me, she smiled and I smiled back. I went to my locker and grabbed the things I needed, taking care of what I didn't. I headed to my class and noticed that I had it with the girl that smiled at me, I sat in the back and her eyes found mine once again.
Every once in a while she would look at me and I would look at her, it wasn't awkward and I didn't mind it. But it was cute seeing her get shy when she saw me looking back at her, luckily for me the class had seemed to go quickly and we left. I had art after and I noticed she went a different way, I shrugged and knew I would see her again. After a couple of classes, I walked in and saw I had it with her and her friend, I sat in the back and smiled at her. She smiled back and her friend nudged her shoulder before someone handed her a flyer. I knew I would probably receive one, maybe, no one has approached me yet.
Just as the teacher started talking Calliope Burns walked in, I saw her look at the girl, whose name I probably should know by now, but I don't. I didn't really know anyone's name, just who I was supposed to be watching. I had a feeling that I wanted to get to know her, I had noticed her before, sometimes seeing her eyes on me. I just assume it's because I'm the new girl. I had started a little before Calliope did, just so it didn't seem suspicious and the attention would leave me. No matter how many missions we went on, I always disliked the fact of how discreet we had to be.
The class went smoothly, my eyes drifting to the girl's name I had yet to find. Once the bell rang I heard her friend finally say her name, "Juliette, let's go. I don't wanna be late to gym again," I walked out and saw Calliope "drop" a bracelet, I wondered why but decided to ignore it and hide behind a wall. I watched as Juliette looked around and grabbed it, she immediately dropped it and hissed. I saw the smoke coming from her hand and something told me to run and protect her, but I waited. I saw Calliope with her phone quickly leave for class. I followed Juliette into the bathroom, peeking in. I saw her rinse her hand under water, hissing again before throwing her head back and her fangs popping out. My eyes widened when I realized she was Juliette Fairmont, a legacy vampire.
But I noticed she wasn't healing quickly, which meant she hadn't had her first kill yet. I read all about them, legacies that don't have their first kill will slowly die, it starts with headaches, lashing out, not healing, and getting sick and weak. Then they die, it worries me that she hadn't done it yet. Of course, being a hunter, I shouldn't condone killing, but it was their nature, she was born that way. No one can stop what must happen, and there's obviously a reason why she hasn't. I walked into the bathroom once she seemed fine, she looked at me with a nervous look. I went up and looked at myself through the mirror, "Juliette, right?" She nodded, a tight-lip smile on her face. "I'm Natalie, I've been meaning to introduce myself." I put my hand out, making sure she wouldn't have to use the one she just hurt.
She shook my hand and seemed to relax, "Hey, uh there's this party tonight, I don't usually go to these things, but I was wondering if maybe you wanted to? I'll obviously be there because I already said that. I just think it would be cool to see you there, maybe get to know each other better?" I laughed softly and nodded, looking down at her. She was shorter than me but not by much, "I'd like that, yeah I'll be there." She handed me the flyer, it had the address on it. I smiled widely and folded it up, she smiled at me and looked at the door. "I should probably head to class..." I nodded, "Me too, I'll see you tonight Juliette." She bit her lip and we walked out, she held the door open for me which I found adorable.

It was the night of the party, I had told my parents I was going so they weren't concerned but they didn't know exactly where I was going. I told them about what had happened at school, with how Calliope burned Juliette to figure out if she was a vampire. We knew we couldn't intervene with how she was going to hunt them, but we had our opinions. Some of the guild agreed with how we ran it, and how other hunters do. The guild is not all in one, there are multiple branches of it, which is why it makes it so easy for us to stay hidden. My parents just told me if I saw them together to always check on them, we didn't want either of them getting hurt and Calliope was most likely going to find herself killed.
Once I walked into the house, I could feel the loud beat changing the pace of my heart. I looked around for Juliette and didn't see her, maybe I had come early. Well earlier than her, I leaned against a wall being able to face the front door. I saw Calliope come in shortly after, looking around as well before walking up the stairs. I knew she was trying to stay hidden from Juliette, I didn't know what her plan was, but I didn't like it. I knew she was going to try killing her, which if she knew anything about legacies, which would be a shock if she did, she would know she was just going to anger her. But Juliette didn't really seem like someone to get angry at that, and I wasn't sure how a legacy would react to it, especially since she hadn't had her first kill and it was obvious she needed it.
I saw Juliette come in with her friend, who I had learned was Ben. My mom met his mom, and they got to talking about it. She said that he was best friends with Juliette, which obviously made it easy to find out who she was talking about. Juliette saw me and her face lit up, I smiled at her and saw Calliope behind her, watching her. Ben gave her a look and looked at me, Ben walked away and Juliette glared at her. Juliette slowly made her way over to me, "Hi, you came." I nodded with a smile, "I did, I'm glad you came and I wasn't here alone." She laughed nervously, "Ben had to convince me, but knowing you were going also helped." "So you came for me?" She started stuttering and I laughed, putting my hand on her arm. "Relax Juliette, I'm just joking." She laughed again, I could tell she was nervous. "Oh, right. Wanna get a drink?" I nodded and we walked over, pouring it ourselves and we talked a little.
I saw her friend Ben come in, a disappointed look on his face. She looked at him then me, I just nodded and she walked over to him, I didn't know what they were saying but he waved her off. Calliope walked past and sat on the couch, Juliette didn't notice her. I think Calliope wanted her to see her, Ben looked nudged Juliette and looked at Calliope. She smiled at Calliope who just stared at her, licking her lips. I couldn't help feeling a little jealous, I shouldn't but it wasn't my fault I did. She nudged him and looked at me, smiling shyly when she saw me looking at her. Ben laughed and pushed her forward, spin the bottle was happening and I thought about it, but I backed up. I wasn't one to just kiss random people and I doubt I would have been lucky enough to land on Juliette.
Calliope took her chance and the bottle spun, it landed on Calliope. Juliette looked at her then at me, before being pushed towards the door. I couldn't tell her what to do and what to not do, it wasn't up to me. Ben came over to me, "I don't think Juliette is gonna kiss her," I shrugged and looked at him, he wasn't much taller than me, maybe an inch. "It's not up to us what she does, she's an independent woman, if she wants to kiss Calliope let her." He looked at me a little confused but shrugged, he walked off and I leaned against the wall. It wasn't long until the lights seemed to turn out and during that time I noticed Calliope sneak out of the closet. She was looking around quickly, my eyes found her, and I could see fear in them. I heard someone scream and looked towards it, I saw Ashley on the ground and ran to her.
I had enough experience of nursing to help, I slid on the ground to her side and checked her injuries. I saw head trauma and noticed her body was failing, "Everyone outside! Call an ambulance!" They ran outside and I heard someone call them, I grabbed my bag and took out a bottle. I wasn't supposed to use the potion unless it was on a family member, but I couldn't let her die. I forced her to drink it, it wouldn't work right away, and she would be able to go to the hospital. It wasn't long until the EMTs came, they took her and I backed up. They walked out and I knew cops would be coming, I looked for Juliette. I heard a phone ringing and went to the closet where I last saw her, I opened the door and quickly rushed in. There she was, a stake in her chest but she was just passed out.
I started pulling it out so it would heal, and that caused her eyes to open. She sat up quickly and I immediately felt her fangs in my neck, I pushed her off and her eyes widened. She covered her mouth and I saw her chest heal slowly. "It's ok, it's ok. Calm down Juliette, we need to get out of here, ok?" She just nodded and I helped her up, I handed her, her phone. We snuck out as cops were filling the house. We ran out the back and I held her hand, I could tell she was freaking out. Once we were far enough away from the house I stopped her, looking at her. "Why would Calliope stake you?" She shook her head, "I don't know, I didn't give her the impression I was a vampire. Gosh, why am I telling you this?" I laughed softly, "I'm probably the safest person you could tell, I won't tell anyone. My family... well we're hunters, but we don't hunt vampires. Only if they are mass murdering people, and it's obvious you guys aren't, well at least not you." She smiled slightly, but I could still she was a little nervous.
"I'm gonna take you home, ok? Maybe you can explain to me why you haven't killed anyone, legacy." She looked at me a little shocked, we walked down the busy road and I found my car, I only had a little bit of my drink and wasn't feeling a thing. We got in and I started driving to her house, with her help. I had been here for a little while, but I didn't know it enough to take her to her house without help. We pulled up and I looked at her, "Hey, park outside the house and sneak to my room. I will keep my window open, then we can talk." I wiped her mouth, it still had my blood on it. She laughed and looked down, "Sorry about biting you," "It's ok, just don't freak out tonight, ok?" She looked at me confused but got out. I drove off and did what she told me to, I snuck over the fence and quietly ran to her house, I waited until I saw a window open.
Once I saw her open her window I climbed up and she helped me in quietly, I smiled at her. "Sneaking me in already?" She gently hit my shoulder and we sat on her bed, "Sorry for taking a second, I got questioned by my parents. They heard about a girl getting hurt, so they wondered if I tried killing someone there, I told them no. My mom wants me to have my first kill soon, but I'm not sure if I'm ready." "Why is that? Why aren't you ready?" "I hate the idea of killing someone to feed, it's why I take these pills, so I don't have to, but they aren't enough. I was born like this, I didn't ask for that, and I feel like they don't understand it." I grabbed her hand softly, she looked at me and I looked into her eyes.
"Juliette, I know what you are, and I can tell you, having your first kill won't make you a monster. Sure, you were born in the category of monsters, but you are not one. I can tell, because if you were, you would be killing aimlessly. You wouldn't be forcing yourself to hurt, forcing blood pills down your throat. I am telling you, and I know you hear it enough from your family, I know that you need your first kill. From what I know of legacies, it is harmful for you not to kill. It's one of the few things that could kill you, other than a legacy." She looked at me confused about the last part, "If you ever come over, I'll let you read my books." She nodded, her eyes drifted to my lips and we were slowly closing the gap between us.
That was until the door opened.
Chapter Text
We pulled away, I jumped towards the window. I was ready to jump out if I had to, of course, I trusted Juliette, and I knew I could. But that didn't mean I would immediately trust her family, I looked at the door and Juliette stood in front of me. "Mom, knock please." Her mom looked at me and I gulped quietly, my hand gripping the ledge of the window tightly. "I didn't know you had company over, Juliette. I didn't see your friend behind you when you came home, coming through the window. I remember that trick, did it with your father all the time." "I didn't know how you would feel about me having a girl over," She waved her hand and came closer, holding her hand out for me to shake.
I shook it, still feeling nervous. "Natalie Stanely, ma'am. It's a pleasure to meet you, I'm sorry it had to be like this though." "Oh don't worry sweetheart, I'm Margot, any friend of Juliette's is welcome here. Even if you're more than a friend," She winked at us, "I just wanted to check on you, make sure you were ok from the party. Don't think I didn't smell your blood on you, so maybe you should explain to me." She sat on Juliette's bed and Juliette looked at me, I nodded, I didn't like secrets. But I didn't know if it would be a good enough time to tell her what I was, Juliette sighed and sat down next to her mom while I stood.
"While at the party, there was a girl there. Her name is Calliope Burns, we were dared to go into the closet, during seven minutes of heaven, I'm assuming you know what that is." Her mom nodded, "Well, she had tried to kiss me but I wasn't really interested in that so I backed away. Well while I was leaning against the counter, she had said she knew what I was. I didn't understand what she meant by that, but before I could ask she had staked me in the chest. I had blacked out from it, which I don't think is what she wanted to happen. She ran out, and luckily Natalie came to my rescue. She pulled out the stake, but that freaked me out and I bit her. I didn't drain her obviously, but I did taste her blood. That was when she found out what I was, and during our run to her car I found out what she was." Her mom looked at me confused, I was human, she could tell.
"My family, is a family of hunters." Juliette jumped in front of me, keeping her mom away when she zoomed up. "We don't hunt vampires! Unless they are killing a lot, too much killing we do something about that. I knew you guys were here before coming, you aren't why we are here. The Burns are, they are here on a large monster mission, more ghouls and nightwalkers have been seen in the area and they were sent to figure it out. You are not their mission, why Calliope staked your daughter, I do not know, but I will find it out. I promise I will not harm you or your daughter. My parents will say the same, we don't break promises. I think Juliette should have her first kill, I know how harmful it is for legacies." Her mom seemed shocked at that, she sat down and sighed.
"We don't tell your sister what she is, ok? I will tell your father myself, he will warm up to your friend, understand that. Natalie, invite your parents over for dinner tomorrow, ok?" I nodded, "Yes ma'am, my mother will be excited to meet a legacy, we hear a lot about them but to see one, it's a once-in-a-lifetime thing." "Maybe not your lifetime," She winked at me and I blushed, she kissed Juliette's head when she stood up. "You be safe, and maybe it's time to listen to your friend." Her mom walked out and I sat on the bed with Juliette again, she looked at me with a small smile. "I'm sorry about her barging on us," I shook my head with a smile, "It's no worry, really I promise. At least she didn't walk in us kissing, I think I would have dived out of the window if that happened." She laughed and I smiled wider at that, "If she came in a few seconds later she would have," I nodded, "Yeah, she did interrupt us."
"Well, we don't have to leave it at that. We could, you know, finish where we left off." I laughed and slowly leaned in, I felt her lips touch mine. They were soft and warm, I couldn't believe what I was feeling. Kissing her was like magic, but for some reason all I could think was Rosalie kissing me. I blocked that out and kept kissing Juliette, she pulled me closer. Her hands found my waist and gently pushed me down on the bed, I trailed my hand up her back and under her shirt. I flipped us and started kissing her neck, she tilted her head and moaned softly at the feeling of my lips. I gently bit the skin, causing her to grip my hips harder. We started grinding against each other and more teeth on skin came to play. I moved my lips to her chest, kissing and nibbling the skin showing. I felt her fingers grip my hair, moving my head to where she wanted me.
I laughed softly against her skin, bitting a little harder causing her to gasp loudly. I pulled away and smiled at her, the marks were there but they were fading quickly. She pulled me down into another kiss, I kissed back but we kept it sweet. I pulled away once I needed air, "Tomorrow, we're going out and we will find your first kill. We can kill someone who deserves it," "How will you know?" "I'll just know, I'll be your bait." She looked confused but just nodded, "But first, I need to call my mom. Can I stay here?" She nodded quickly, "Of course, you can, my mom won't care. I promise you," I smiled and grabbed my phone, I called my mom who picked up quickly. "Hey, was just thinking about you." "I'm staying with a friend tonight since it's dark and I just wanna be safe. Her mom invited you and dad for dinner. They are the Fairmonts." I waited for the name to click, and she gasped softly.
"The legacies?" "Yes, they know we're hunters. But if you meet their daughter keep it from her, so don't flaunt it. I'm staying with Juliette, she's the small brunette one." I felt a pinch on my butt and I jumped, glaring at a glaring Juliette. "I haven't met her sister yet, but I explained everything to her mom. I'll explain more to you when I come home tomorrow, after school." "Ok honey, well get some sleep, I'll see you after school." I hung up the phone and Juliette got up, heading to her dresser, "You can borrow my clothes if you want, for school and to sleep in." "Y-Yeah that would be great." She laughed softly and grabbed me some shorts and a shirt, I took it and went to the bathroom that she had pointed to. I wouldn't have cared about changing in front of her, I never felt shy changing in front of people, but she seemed shy. Once I was done I knocked before walking out, I saw her already changed and lying in bed. She turned off the big light and had her lamp on instead.
I walked over and climbed into bed, facing her. She smiled at me and moved my hair out my face, "You look cute in my clothes," I blushed and she kissed me softly, I kissed back and my hand found her waist. I pulled away and leaned my forehead against hers, "We should go to bed," She nodded before kissing me again, I laughed into the kiss but kissed back. I didn't mind her kissing me, even if we should have been sleeping. I could go to school with a few hours of sleep, especially if it meant she was kissing me. It didn't take long for her to get too tired to kiss and we were able to fall asleep, we were wrapped in each other's arms so I hoped no one came in while we were sleeping.

Chapter Text
I was awoken by a pair of soft lips, I smiled and opened my eyes. I saw Juliette straddling me, a wide smile on her face. "Morning," "Good morning, Nat." My memories flashed to Jessica, I felt myself become saddened at the fact of the dream giving me a sister. I smiled wider at Juliette and she kissed me again, I kissed her back and pulled away when she tried to slip her tongue. "I haven't brushed my teeth." She rolled her eyes and got off of me, I whined at that and she pulled me up. "Come on, we should get ready anyway," She pulled me into the bathroom and handed me an unused toothbrush and some toothpaste, we started brushing our teeth and I looked into the mirror and smiled at her. Once we were done we went to her room and she let me choose what I wanted to wear.
I decided on some of her jeans and one of her baggy shirts, I went to the bathroom fixed my hair, and got dressed. She told me where some unused deodorant and perfume I could use, I used everything, making sure I would replace it. Once I was done I walked out, seeing Juliette put her hair up. She turned toward me and I smiled at her, she put her hand out for me and I grabbed it. I made sure I had my phone and we went downstairs, I saw her parents sitting at the table and a plate of food untouched sitting on the table. "We made you some breakfast, Natalie." I blushed and Juliette got her some coffee while I went and sat down. "You didn't have to do that, Mrs. and Mr. Fairmont." "Oh please, call us Margot and Sebastian." Sebastian held his hand out for me and I shook it, both of us having a firm grip. "Margot told me about your family, um, business." I nodded as I ate, "Yes sir, I hope you do understand we won't do anything to your family unless given reason to. We are part of a guild that does not kill the "monsters" unless they are inhuman and too dangerous to keep on the Earth."
He looked at my arm, it was covered in tattoos. "Yes, I have killed before. Most of my kills came from zombies or ghouls, those are the only monsters we must kill on sight because they are far too gone. I wish there was another way, there are only a few monsters other than those we kill no matter what." He nodded, "Any from a vampire?" "No sir, I have not killed a vampire, day walker, or legacy, I do not intend to in this town." He nodded and looked at Margot, "You have our blessing to date our daughter." I choked on my bite, Juliette rushing over and tapping my back. "That's when you decided to tell her?" "Sorry, honey." I recovered myself and took a drink of the orange juice, "I'm ok, sorry about that." Her parents shook her head, "We should have waited till you at least swallowed to tell you." I finished and before I could take it and get up Juliette took it, going over and cleaning it. She just smiled and I rolled my eyes, "Thank you for breakfast, I appreciate it." I smiled and got up, Juliette came over and took my hand softly.
"See you after school, her parents are coming tonight, correct?" "Yes, your dad is getting out early and Eleanor should be staying out since you know how she is." "We understand if you want us to eat before coming, wouldn't want you to waste time cooking for just three humans." Her mom waved me off, "Let us cook, we don't get to anymore. Most we can do is drink, so let us cook for you and your family." I nodded with a smile, "My mom appreciates the invite, we'll see you tonight." Juliette and I walked out, going to my car and getting in. "I have to head to my house, I gotta get my backpack." She nodded and I started driving there, once we pulled out I got out and ran inside. "Hi, mom! Getting my bag and heading to school! Love you!" I quickly grabbed it and ran back out, got in the car, and started the drive to school.
Once we arrived we got out, Juliette stood by me and held my hand. "Is this ok?" I nodded and we walked into school, we headed to our lockers which weren't far from each other, and put away what we didn't need before heading to our classes. I saw Calliope stare at Juliette throughout the school day, I didn't know if Juliette noticed it. It was almost as if Calliope saw a ghost, the fact that Juliette was still walking around and not dust like a normal vampire would be. I knew her family didn't know about legacies, they were so rare that only a few people in the guild believed in them. There was nothing that could kill them, not anymore. Someone in the guild years ago destroyed the real silver spears, we think it was someone in love with one. But they remade them, I know they won't work, it was a special metal that no longer existed, the metal went extinct. The only way to kill a legacy was a legacy itself, with a legacy's venom it would kill a legacy.
School felt slow, maybe cause I wasn't able to see Juliette much and that was who I was thinking of. I was surprised she didn't show up in my dream last night, maybe she didn't because I was lying in bed with her. I would see if we were able to be in each other's dream when I slept back at home, it would be a small experiment on us. Once school was finally done Juliette let me meet Ben, somewhere better than a loud party. "I'm Ben Wheeler, Juliette's best friend." "I'm Natalie Stanley, her girlfriend." We hadn't made it official, but she didn't seem mad at me saying it. "She's coming over to have dinner with my parents, her parents are also coming." "Seriously?" Juliette nodded at him, "Wow, first girlfriend to ever meet your parents, shocker." She punched him and I laughed softly, "Wait... are those your clothes? O.M.G! Did she sleep at your house after the party?" Juliette laughed nervously and I blushed, "No wonder she's meeting, your mom caught you both in bed." "That's not true, I introduced her to her, and she also caught us. But my mom invited her parents over." He just laughed and shook his head, a smile on his face.
"Only you, Letty." "Well, we gotta get going to this dinner party. I'll see you later Ben," "Call me and tell me how it goes," She hugged him bye and we got in my car, I started it and drove to her house, dropping her off at her house and headed to mine. I knew my mom would want us to drive up together like a family, she was always like that. Once my dad got home we headed there, I changed into something nice but casual and so did my parents. I took Juliette's clothes with us, so I could give them back to her. Once we arrived my mom handed Margot wine she brought for her, Margot smiled at us and thanked her. We walked in and they shook hands, Juliette coming over to my side and pecking my lips. I was happy I explained I was dating Juliette before we left, and my parents didn't care about it.
Of course, they were a little skeptical that her parents were ok with it so quickly, but we knew we wouldn't let our guard down during dinner in case anything happened. But I trusted Juliette and her family, they gave me no reason not to. We went and sat down at the table, I was sitting next to Juliette. "You have a lovely home, Margot." She looked at my mom and smiled, "Thank you, Sebastian and I built it together." We started eating as they drank their wine, other than Juliette. We thanked for the dinner and it didn't take us long to finish it, it was definitely one of my favorite dinners I've had since living here. My mom is an amazing cook, but she works so it sometimes makes it hard to have nice family meals like this. Though I will always prefer her food, Margots was amazing. Juliette had told me her mom was cooking the food, she had to ask if we had any allergies.
Our parents moved to the living room to talk, her sister, Eleanor was nowhere around like predicted. I went upstairs with Juliette, her lips finding mine once the door closed. She took me to the bed, pushing me down and her hand finding under my dress. I pulled away, "Not with my parents downstairs." She bit my bottom lip softly, and nodded, "I'll behave, I promise." I didn't push her hand away, letting it sit on my thigh as we continued to kiss. It wasn't long until our parents came up to get us, making us pull away. I had to drive since my parents had some drinks, I told Juliette I would be back for her in an hour and to wait for me.
Once we got home I went to my room and got dressed in something, very revealing. I put on a black lace bra with a ripped crop top over it, the bra showing, and a leather skirt with some heeled boots. I knew my parents were already asleep once I was done with my makeup, I got in my car and started driving to Juliette. I watched as she jumped out her window and got in the car, her jaw-dropping at the sight of me. "Glad to see the outfit works, let's get going." I started driving to the crowded with drunks street and we parked. I told her to hide in an alleyway and I would find her someone. It didn't take long for a guy to come up to me, "Damn sexy, let me show you a good time." I walked towards Juliette, I knew he would follow. "No thank you, I'm not interested." Once we got to the Alley he grabbed my wrist, "That wasn't a question." He started pulling me to his own doom, once we were clouded by the darkness Juliette came out. "Let her go!" He laughed, "Fuck off, bitch, she wants this." I watched as Juliette punched him in the nose and kicked him in the stomach.
She threw him into a wall and she bit his neck, covering his mouth. I was frozen where I was, I had seen a vampire kill before, my mom killed that one, but I didn't feel the way I did right now. Watching Juliette suck him dry, before dropping his body to the ground. She threw her head back in ecstasy and looked at me, blood around her mouth. She rushed to me with a speed I hadn't seen from her before, pinning me to a wall and putting her lips on mine. I didn't mind the kissing, the blood was new but I was so into her and the way she felt flushed against me I didn't care. She started kissing my neck as her fingers pushed aside my panties, she stopped and looked at me. I nodded quickly and I felt her fingers play with my clit before sliding inside me, "You're so wet, did watching me do that to you?" I nodded quickly, "Words, baby girl." "Yes, fuck, I liked watching you." She slid in a second finger and her movements got faster, I felt her fangs scrape against my neck but never biting.
I knew even if she bit me I would be fine, she would have to drain me close to death for me to become a vampire. She licked my neck and curled her fingers, "You taste so much better than him," She pulled away from my neck, using the sleeve of her sweater to clean my mouth and hers before dropping to her knees. She easily picked me up and put me on her shoulders, I gripped her hair as she started sucking my clit. I threw my head back against the brick wall and moaned loudly, I should be quiet but I didn't care. She slid her tongue inside me and moved it in and out quickly, "I'm close Juliette," She hummed against me, her nose hitting my clit. I came with a loud moan, gripping her hair harder. She cleaned me up and gently set me down, standing up. "Help me with him?" I nodded and went and got my car once I was able to walk, I backed it up into the alleyway and she put him in my trunk.
I drove her to the lake and we took him to the water, before throwing him in. We watched the gators start eating him, I pulled her into me and kissed her once again. She bit my bottom lip, "Take me home?" I nodded and we got to my car, driving to her house. She told me to come in, so I followed her inside after parking my car by her mom's. It wasn't long before her mom came over to her, looking at us and my outfit. My eyes widened and Juliette gave me her jacket to hide my body. "We will ignore the outfit, Juliette, did you?" She nodded, her mom looked at me and I nodded to confirm. "Sebastian! Come here," He came out quickly, "What is it?" "Juliette had her first kill," "You did? That's amazing sweetheart, just tell me where the body is and I'll take care of it." "We already fed him to the gators," They looked at each other with a smile, "Good job, sweetie. We're proud of you, very proud." Her sister came out, looking at us both. "It's true, Juliette?" "Yes, I had my first kill. Natalie was there to witness it," I just nodded, clinging to Juliette's jacket.
"Well let's let them go to their room, I have to call my mother. Sunday will be your party, I would say bring Natalie, but..." Juliette's eyes widen, "I won't do it without her, you can tell grandma I feed from her and she's mine and mine only. I'll bite her for the scar, but I want her there." Her mom nodded, "Ok, I will get an outfit for her too, you both can match. It'll be so cute." Juliette rolled her eyes with a smile and we went to her room, Juliette hid my backside by pressing against me as we walked. "I'm sorry my mom saw you like that," "It's ok, at least we weren't both covered in the blood still." She laughed and nodded, "True, did I tell you how sexy you look?" "A couple of times," She pulled me into her, making me drop the jacket. "You look so sexy, I can't wait to get it off of you." She pushed me onto her bed and I couldn't help but giggle as she quickly took her shirt off.
Chapter Text
It's two days before the party, Margot invited me over to make sure the dress fit and looked good on me. She picked out a couple of options so we weren't stuck with one, while talking I did warn her about the Burns. While at school I noticed Calliope was watching us, and when her parents or brother would pick her up, they would stare at us too. My parents knew but weren't coming to the party, but promised to never be far just in case. The only thing we weren't expecting was Juliette's grandmother to show up early, her guards in tow. Juliette had quickly taken me upstairs to bite my wrist, she moaned at the taste of my blood and I couldn't wait to tell her how that made me feel. She warned me that she would do that every once in a while, making it more noticeable that she just feeds off of me.
Juliette had chosen a green dress, which she looked beautiful in. I chose the matching green dress, mine just had darker green lace on it. I had asked to stay with Juliette until the party and my parents agreed, knowing it was probably safer for me to do that anyway. The bond between Juliette and I had become stronger, I could hear what she was thinking and she could too, which made it hard for me to think about Rosalie. While hanging out with Juliette I learned that there's a movie called Twilight, with a whole cast that looks like my friends. I thought maybe that was why the memory was so vivid because I watched it but just couldn't pinpoint why I knew them. So if I thought about her I was able to just brush it off as if I was thinking of watching the movie. She loved the movie, so it made it easier to see Rosalie all the time. I didn't like that in the movies she was with Emmett, something didn't feel right about it. Every time I saw Jessica on the screen, something inside me would break just a little more.
Did I know why? No, I didn't, because there was no way that the dream was real since here I am with memories since I was a kid, living and loving Juliette. I thought that maybe I was in a coma, that this life was a dream and I was with her, but that seemed even more ridiculous. Once the day was over, Juliette and I went to her room, laying in her bed and holding hands. I could tell she wasn't excited about the party, it was a tradition she didn't enjoy. I had spoken to her parents about keeping some of my weapons in Juliette's room and around the property, because I would do anything to protect Juliette, even going against the guild. They agreed, as long as I didn't mention them in front of her sister or grandmother. I had noticed she had a closer relationship with Eleanor than Juliette, maybe it was because she had refused blood for so long, but I still thought it was unfair.
I had talked to Juliette about it, but it didn't seem to bother her. I was taken out of my thoughts by a pair of lips on mine, I hummed and she pulled away. She had a wide smile on her face, "You should stop thinking so much," She straddled me and I pulled her into another kiss, smiling. Once I needed air she pulled away, "You look so beautiful, Nat." She started unbuttoning my nightshirt, letting her fingers brush against my skin. I gasped softly and my body arched against her, she smiled at me. "Can I feed from you again?" I nodded quickly, "Yes, god yes you can." She kissed my chest softly, moving my shirt to the side. "Can I bite you here?" She asked as she nibbled gently on my chest, just above my nipple. "You can bite me anywhere, Juliette." She smiled at me before letting her fangs out. She always let me see them before she bit me, she only bit me a couple of times, but it was something I enjoyed seeing.
She bit down and I threw my head back with a moan, gripping her hair softly. She gripped my waist with one hand and her other played with my other nipple, once she got her fill she pulled away and licked the area. Her fangs retracted and she looked at me, I pulled her face closer by her hair and licked the little blood dripping on her face before kissing her. She hummed at the taste of my lips and slipped her tongue in, I pulled away. "Let's not get too carried away, too many people in this house." She groaned softly but nodded, "Fine, but the minute they're gone I'm gonna fuck you so hard." I giggled and nodded, pecking her lips.
~~~~~~~~~~
It was the day of the party, there were so many vampires around that it was hard not to get nervous about it. Juliette was by my side the whole time, she would bite me but didn't really drink so I wouldn't have to walk away from her to eat or drink. She knew it was difficult to walk away from the legacies that had shown up to see her. They were so interested that the youngest legacy from the head family was finally going to accept her fate. I didn't really know what it had meant, she explained it as best as she could. I knew she would be bitten by a snake and then there would be a hunt, which would mean she had to leave my side, but her mom promised to be with me during it. I was thankful they were protective of me, as much as Juliette was. I think her mom is because of how her husband used to be human, she is just doing what she wished someone did for him.
I was with Juliette in the bathroom, she wanted me to walk down the stairs with her. I was anxious to have all the eyes on me but I agreed for her, she knew I was nervous but appreciated me nonetheless. She stepped out of the bathroom, her hand tightly in mine. Just as we were gonna walk down a man turned the corner, and she gasped softly. "Oliver! What are you doing here?" She hugged him tightly and he hugged back, smiling against her hair. "I had to see you today, sis. Look at you all grown up," She smiled and pulled back, she motioned me over and smiled at him. "Oliver, this is my girlfriend, Natalie." I put my hand out but he hugged me instead, I laughed softly and hugged back. "Sorry, I'm the hugger of the family. It's nice to meet you, Natalie, you must be what's been making her so happy." Juliette nodded, "She also helped me realize that having my first kill didn't make me a monster." He smiled and nodded, "Ain't that the truth?" We looked down the stairs as her name was called, "Meet you down there sis." He walked down quickly, and we walked down together.
Her parents smiled at us, Juliette holding my hand a little tighter. Once we got down her dad took her hand gently and kissed it, "It's your night baby girl," We all headed outside and I saw her grandmother pick up a snake, I hated snakes but it was a large part of Juliette and I's dreams. She walked over and I stood by her mother, I tuned out what her grandmother was saying, only watching Juliette. The snake bit her neck and I could hear the gasp from Juliette over the claps and cheers, she looked at me and I smiled at her. Her grandmother put the snake back in its chest and opened the cage with "Eve", she was told to run which she did. Juliette started chasing her, I wondered why she wasn't using the speed she used for me. Maybe they weren't supposed to, to make it fair and a longer chase. I stayed by her mom, while everyone else followed her through the forest.
I was thinking, telling her I knew she could do it and to catch her for me. I knew she didn't like killing and this is what this was, so hearing me tell her she could do it, and hearing me cheer her on would always help. After about thirty minutes she came back, everyone clapping while she had blood on her lips. I licked my lips at the sight of her and her mom looked at me, raising her eyebrow. I cleared my throat and Juliette came over, pecking my lips. Her mom subtly wiped her lips and Juliette looked at me, I looked around before mumbling "Fuck it," I pulled her close to me and licked the blood clean before she pulled me into a kiss. I knew my face and ears were bright red, she pulled away with a wide smile. "I can't believe everyone just saw that," She shrugged and grabbed my hands gently, "I'm a whole new me, how do you like it?" I took her in, licking my lips.
"You look as gorgeous as ever, but you do look stronger and brighter." She pulled me closer, a smile on her face. "Let's head inside, I wanna enjoy the rest of the party with you in my bed." I blushed again and she took my hand, pulling me inside the house. It was quiet, everyone was outside. Once we made it to her room she pulled me close, kissing my neck and scrapping her fangs against the skin. "God I wanna bite you so badly, but I'm gonna wait till you're cumming on my fingers before I do." I pulled her into a rough and needy kiss, our tongues fighting for dominance and hers overpowering mine.
Just as she started unzipping my dress we heard screams and what sounded like a loud siren, Juliette covered her ears with a groan. I quickly looked out the windows and saw the burns and what seemed to be other people from the guild running through the property. Once the siren stopped she collected her barring, I grabbed my weapons, having a gun and katana if I ran out of bullets. My bullets wouldn't kill them, just temporarily since her family helped me with blood bullets. We ran outside and I grabbed my bulletproof chest, who knew what weapons they had on them. I kissed Juliette before she went to help her family, I knew she would be safe. I shot a couple of members first, before seeing Caliope's mom. She looked at me, her eyes widening before I shot her. "Don't mess with my family, Burns." I shot her husband as he ran up to get me, both of them falling to their knees. They wouldn't die but they wouldn't be ok for a while, I kept running, finding Juliette and Calliope fighting. "Calliope Burns!" She turned towards me and I shot her, just as Juliette kicked her down.
Juliette and I ran around and got everyone down that needed to be, we took out the spears of her mom and I saw her dad clenching his chest. "Fuck! Jules! Take your mom inside, go!" I kneeled by him and he took a weak breath. "I'm not gonna let you die on Juliette, Sabastion, you fight for me ok?" He nodded and I got up, running to my parents. I knew where they were, "Mom, I need the serum we talked about, in case one of the legacies got hurt. It's her dad, he's not a legacy, but it has to help him, right?" She handed to me, "It'll heal him, he'll be ok, now go." I ran back and slid next to him, "You have to trust me, ok? I know I'm a lousy hunter who is dating your daughter, but trust me." He nodded, he knew he would be doomed either way. I poured the drink into his mouth, and he forced himself to swallow it. I watched as the black veins disappeared and he gasped loudly, he sat up and checked his chest. "Completely healed, as if I was a legacy. What did you give me?" I helped him stand up, "Just something we created, it helps heal legacies, if they were to somehow get hurt, rare but possible. I know you aren't a legacy, but it healed you and seemed to make you stronger. Just take it easy, ok?" He nodded and we went inside, Margot rushed to his side and checked his injuries.
I could tell she was confused, everyone was. He should be dying, but here he is, fine after being with the human girl. Juliette went over to me, "The guards are collecting all the hunters, we're taking all their weapons and searching their house. We won't be killing them unless they prove they deserve it." I nodded in agreement, "In my book they deserve it, they tried to kill you." She pulled me into a hug, "But I'm ok, you're ok." I wouldn't tell her about the injury from one of the Burns brothers, I didn't wanna worry her. "I'm gonna go to the bathroom, ok?" She nodded with a small smile and I walked upstairs, I went to her bathroom and pulled the vest off, I winced at the blood on the dress. I took it off so I was just in my bra and underwear, looking at the cut I got from him. I went into the room and grabbed my first aid kit, grabbing the stuff to clean and stitch it. Just as I was about to walk in, Margot came in. I dropped the kit and covered myself, she looked at the blood dripping from me. "What happened? Juliette said you were fine,"
"She doesn't know, I didn't wanna worry her. One of the brothers, got me just before I shot them. I was gonna stitch it up," She came over and kneeled, grabbed the kit, and started cleaning the wound. She didn't care how I was dressed, then she started to stitch it up and bandage it. "There, now you can go tell her what happened." Juliette came in just as her mom was standing, "Woah, why was my mom kneeling while you're practically naked?" She didn't even notice the bandage yet. "She got hurt, I was helping her. Don't worry, Juliette." She smiled at us both before leaving, Juliette came over gently putting her hand on the bandaging. "What happened? You said you were fine," "I know, I didn't wanna worry you about the blood. I got cut by one of the brothers before I shot him, he got me right under the vest. I played it off as other people blood on me and it worked." She pulled me into a soft kiss quick kiss, growling softly under her breath.
"I'll kill him for it, just say the word." "Juliette that isn't like you, you don't kill just cause." She shook her head with a glare, "He hurt you, that's good enough reason to cut his head off." I pulled her back into a kiss, getting her to quiet down. That seemed to relax her enough, I pulled away slowly. "I'm ok now, you're mom really helped, ok?" She nodded and she got me some clothes and I put them on after taking my bra off. She changed into some pajamas too, before helping me into bed. She didn't need to help me, but I knew in a way it was helping her know I was ok at all times.
Chapter 12
Notes:
!!GORE WARNING!!
Chapter Text
It's been two months since the incident with the Burns family, they had told us that they were originally here to hunt down the ghouls. They explained that they only learned about the Fairmonts because Juliette dropped a blood pill, and Calliope "dropped" her bracelet to see if it would burn her, which she had seen that it did. We had told them that they needed to leave, and if they came back after us, they would all die. They asked why I was there, they assumed I was a part of the guild, I denied it saying I didn't know who she was outside of school. They decided just to agree, though I knew they didn't really believe me. Once we let them go we also told them they wouldn't get the weapons till they were out of the area and we would ship them to them, I wasn't sure how but I knew they had their ways.
I had gotten closer to Juliette and her family, though there was something about Elinor. She was always out and it seemed she would come back with blood under her nails and someone would be missing a day later. I wanted it to be a coincidence, but I still told Juliette. She told me she had seen her sister put a key in her dresser but also seemed to have a lot of licensees in there but she thought it wasn't anything of it. I knew I needed to find out more, people had been looking for hundreds of people over the years who all went missing after going to the bar hoping, never to find their bodies or evidence of them at all. They just disappeared, and it would help since she's the DA's daughter and knew she could easily get away with it. I had talked to my parents about it, and they agreed I should look around. I went to Juliette about it once again, telling her I was going to find out what it had meant.
She agreed because she knew if her sister was murdering innocent people, it wasn't good. They didn't need to kill to survive, none of them ever did that, but it might seem like Elinor didn't get the memo. The night I learned about it all, I snuck into Elinor's room and grabbed the key. It was to a storage locker, Juliette and I drove to the one that had its name on the keys. Luckily the number was also on it, once we were in I saw boxes and looked around and found a lock box, there were a couple of them. I opened them and saw the IDs of people that had gone missing, she had a whole collection of them. I looked at Juliette and we knew we had to do something about it, but Elinor was her sister, it wasn't going to be easy. "You know she can't get away with it, tell me you know that." "I-I do, of course I do. We'll take it to the police, anonymously, they can't know it was me." I nodded and we grabbed an envelope at a store, putting it in with a note saying that the key belonged to Elinor Fairmont.
I was sitting with Juliette, waiting for anything to happen. We were just lying in bed, and then sirens and screaming happened. Her dad was screaming that they needed a warrant, they grabbed Elinor and dragged her out and her dad was holding back Margot. I wasn't sure what happened, but I knew she was doomed. She wouldn't get away with it, her dad had followed the cops to the station and now we were waiting for him to get back, to hear why she was there. They were under the impression they would be able to get her out within the hour, Juliette and I knew that was not true. Once he had finally gotten home, the sun slowly coming up we headed downstairs with her mom. Sebastian didn't have a good look on his face. "Someone sent them a key to her garage, anonymously, in the garage there were hundreds of IDs of every missing person over the years. They think she murdered them, and to be honest, I believe it." Margot scoffed and stood up, "There is no way she did that!" He looked at her, she slowly sat down.
"I thought she was being framed, but the garage is in her name and there is proof of her going in and putting more ideas in there." Margot put her head in her hands, "There's nothing I can do, Margot." "She's gonna get out, you know she is." He shook his head, "I don't think she's stupid enough," "She has that ability, we need to watch out for her, ok?" He nodded and we headed back upstairs. I wasn't sure what was going to happen. This ability they spoke of, I wasn't sure what it was, or what it was about. But I knew it was something I should be afraid of, but I wasn't. I knew I needed to see her, I wanted her to know it was me, that it was my idea. Maybe I should think it through, but I didn't care at this point.
~~~~~~~~~~
In the morning I drove to the jail, being able to get a visitor room with her. She walked in and sat down, I could tell she was hoping it would be her father or an expert lawyer. I sat down in front of her, she just stared at me. "I know I wasn't who you were expecting," She licked her lips, "You could say that. So, why are you here?" I sighed softly, looking at her handcuffs and my eyes drifted to the guard outside the room. I knew she wouldn't hurt me, at least not yet. "I wanted to look you in the eye and tell you it was me, I put you in here with Juliette's help of course. But it was my idea, I knew what you were doing, you're a monster. Just be happy this is what happened to you, you're gonna rot in hell, Elinor." She glared at me, not daring to move from her seat. "You'll pay for this, Natalie. That's a promise," I smiled at her and stood up, the guard opened the door and I walked out.
I refused to look at her again, I continued walking until I was outside with my things. I didn't know what would happen now, but I promised myself I would always keep a watch. I continued to stay with Juliette, I had a gut feeling that something was going to happen but nothing did. Well, that was until something did happen. I was training in the living room with Juliette's help when her dad's phone rang, we stopped and looked at him. He didn't say much mumbled, and hummed. Once he hung up he looked at us, "Elinor has escaped the jail, they said the guard just let her out and she disappeared before anyone noticed." I couldn't sleep that night, every sound had me looking around. Juliette didn't think anything was going to happen to me but I knew she was going to kill me.
Maybe she wouldn't have escaped if she didn't know it was me, or if she did escape she wouldn't be chasing after me. Juliette had yet to know that I went and visited her, I didn't tell her. Over the next couple of days, bodies were being found, she was leaving them, torn to show there were no vampires. She wasn't that stupid. Juliette stayed by my side, but I didn't think Juliette would be able to fight her sister off. I would get power naps, never really able to sleep.
When it finally happened, it was least expected. She had been on the run for two weeks now and we assumed she was going to just flee the state or even the country. But instead, she came here, came to their home where she knew I was. Juliette, she tried and as much as she tried Elinor got me. She wasn't quick, her nails digging into me as she broke bones. The screams ripping out of my throat, I could tell she enjoyed them. But just before Juliette made her way to me, Elinor dug her fangs into my throat and ripped the chunk of flesh out. She dropped me, and though I died almost instantly I could see what was going on. This was new, though I had died before I assumed, wasn't so sure of that, I hadn't seen this. I watched as Juliette kneeled by my lifeless body, tears falling from her eyes as she let out a scream. She pulled me close, holding me tightly.
I felt emotional, I wanted to comfort her but I couldn't. I was stuck in place, stuck watching everything happen. I watched as her eyes swirled with emotion, the sadness being replaced with dark anger. She gently set my body down before standing quickly, she turned towards Elinor and ran to her with her speed. She slammed her down with a newfound strength, just as she was beating Elinor her parents came out of the room. I wasn't sure where they were in the house, but they saw me on the ground dead. Her mom froze, hands covering her mouth. Her dad ran to me, looking at Margot when he knew there was no saving me. I wasn't sure what they could see of me, but the shock in his eyes said he wasn't expecting what he saw.
Elinor tried fighting off Juliette, but she couldn't. "You killed her! You monster!" Juliette slammed her head into the floor before barring her fangs with a hiss, she bit down on Elinor's neck and ripped a chunk out just like she did me. Before she ripped Elinor's head off, little blood was there. Juliette stood up and looked down at her dead sister, she turned away and knelt by me again. She leaned her forehead on mine and mumbled a sorry, she pulled a necklace out of her pocket and put it on me. I felt her touch, all I wanted to do was hold her back. I felt the silver on the body where I was now, looking down it was a locket and I opened it. It had her and I in it, her wide smile as she stared at me. Before anything else could happen I woke up.
Chapter 13
Summary:
She wakes up in the world of Faking It, where she is realizing a little more about her life.
Chapter Text
I woke up to the smell of coffee brewing, my alarm going off. I stretched and rubbed my eyes, turning it off. I looked around and saw the new bedroom, this was becoming crazy. I knew this couldn't be a coincidence, this was almost too much. I die in my dream and I wake up in a world I almost don't recognize. I knew there had to be something going on, like someone was fucking me around like I was a puppet in their messed-up story. I stood up and went into the bathroom connected to my room, I knew the person who could walk in, Amy my sister. However, I still had yet to understand how I knew she always slept in until she couldn't anymore. I got ready, for the day, walking down the stairs and heading to the kitchen.
I saw my mom and her soon-to-be husband, Bruce, sitting at the dining room table. His daughter, my soon-to-be step-sister, Lauren must already be on her way to school. I poured myself, and Amy coffee, making it the way, she liked it. I grabbed a muffin and quickly ate it, as I was eating Amy came over and I handed her the cup of coffee. She thanked me and I finished up, running upstairs to make sure I had everything. I grabbed my keys and backpack, put my phone in my pocket, and ran back downstairs. "Amy, do you want a ride? We can pick up Karma, or you can take the bus." "I'll take the ride, let me call Karma." I nodded and kissed Mom and Bruce's cheek, before heading outside. I didn't have to wait long before Amy came out, we drove to Karma who was at the bus stop. Then we started our drive to school, once we got to the school I went through my bag and found the necklace that was in my dream.
I opened it and saw Juliette, my eyebrows furrowing. I didn't understand, that was supposed to be a dream, was this a dream? I put it back and pushed back the thoughts; I felt like I was going insane. I didn't understand anything that was going on and I wasn't sure if I was ever going to. I continued going to class, Lauren acting like a bitch when she saw either Amy or I. She refused to acknowledge us outside of the house, though everyone knew she was living with us. It didn't bother us, we didn't get along at home either but that was just cause she was a huge bitch to us. I understood that she hated being moved here, that she was uprooted from her life, and that now her dad is marrying someone after her mom died no matter how long ago that was. Though she might not have said that to us, I just know that's what's going on. Bruce tells us to not mind her, and that she will eventually warm up to us.
I don't think she will, but maybe I will be wrong. Though, that is rare. After my classes it was finally lunch, though I wasn't that hungry, it just meant I could sit without having to learn. I sat at the table, Amy and Karma sitting next to me. I wasn't really paying attention to what they were saying, thinking about the dreams and memories that didn't seem like mine. The dreams felt real, they had to be. How else would that necklace be in my bag? During class, I had searched for her family, our friends, everyone, and none of them existed but somehow I had a ticket with Juliette's face on it. This was starting to hurt my head, I just wanted it to make sense. I felt Karma hitting my arm and I looked at her, she looked over and, I saw Shane Harvey and Liam Booker, the popular guys of this wacky school coming over. I know she just wanted to be noticed, of course, she did she was Karma.
"Hey guys, we just wanted to come over and invite you to my party tonight." Karma wasn't able to talk and I rolled my eyes, "We'll try and be there, we're not huge party people." Shane looked at me, his eyes searching me like I was some kind of riddle. He smiled widely and Liam just watched us both, "Awesome! I hope I see you girls there," They walked off and Karma seemed to come out of the trance she was in. "We're so going tonight!" I just looked at her, there was no way I was going and I could tell Amy didn't wanna go either. "I don't know Karms... You know how we feel about parties." She started pouting, which didn't work on me but it worked on Amy. "Fine, we'll go," "Um, you mean you'll go. I will not be going to a party full of sweaty hormonal teens." Amy looked at me, "You need to go, there is no way I am going to this party with just Karma." "Why not? I don't see why I need to go to a stupid party," "Please? Will you go for me?" I looked at them both, both of them had a pout and wide eyes.
I sighed and nodded, Karma smiled widely and we started eating. I was not happy about going, but if I was going I was going to dress hot. Everyone would be too drunk to remember me making out with a hot chick, or maybe even hooking up with one. Once lunch was over the rest of the day seemed to drag on until we were finally heading home. I dropped off Karma and said I would pick her up for the party, she seemed excited which I guess was something. When we got home we ended up just chilling, well I did after I got my outfit ready. Once mom and Bruce got home they started dinner, which I was happy about. I didn't want to be drinking with an empty stomach. I knew it wouldn't be good for any of us to drink on an empty stomach. I messaged Karma about eating too, because knowing her she would drink to calm her nerves and because she was worse than a chihuahua I knew that was going to take many many drinks.
After dinner we had an hour until we had to pick up Karma, we had already told Mom that we were going to spend the night at Karma's. It was a Friday so she didn't care, she knew we were in good hands and, we never did get in trouble. We both got dressed, I knew Amy wasn't gonna go crazy with her outfit, she was probably gonna wear a flannel and jeans. I put on a short black leather dress, wearing my black and red flannel around my waist, putting fishnet tights on with my black combat boots. I fixed up my hair and put on red lipstick and eyeliner, I was never one for foundation or much makeup. Once I was ready I walked down the stairs, Mom and Bruce were already in bed, deciding to get a night early in. Amy walked out and looked at me, her eyebrows rising.
"What? Can I not look hot for a party?" She shrugged, "You just don't normally care for these things." I shrugged and grabbed the keys, I sighed and put them in my bag. "I know, but I also want to have fun tonight. Knowing these parties, no one will be leaving till the morning. So I plan on at least having someone laying next to me." I could tell it shocked her, but she decided to say nothing. We walked out and got in the car, we both buckled up before I started the car. I drove to Karma's, saw her walk out the front door, and she hopped into the back. "You look hot, Natalie!" I rolled my eyes and smiled, "Thank you, Karma, you look hot too." She blushed and Amy looked at her, I could see her eyes rack over Karma before looking ahead.
I was curious if Amy felt something towards Karma, but she never told me about it. Well, I never told her about my crushes, considering I wasn't ready to tell her I was a lesbian but something told me that wasn't going to last much longer. I started the short drive to Shanes, the road already crowded with cars heading to his house. It took me a second to find a place to park but once I did we were heading inside. Shane was watching the door and I could tell the second his eyes found us they widened with excitement. That scared me for some reason, I didn't know why but it did. He rushed over with a drink in his hand and a large smile. "You made it! I wasn't sure you were going to come, I know you guys never showed up to my parties before." I shrugged and looked at him, "You never indirectly invited us, we don't usually just show up to things, besides we don't party." He looked at my outfit, "Girl you look hot, if I was straight I would let you bang." I made a face and shook my head, "No thanks, you're not my type." He smirked and walked off, he gave me strange vibes.
Like he knew something I didn't openly speak about or something I kept hidden. But he gave Amy and Karma the same look as he was trying to figure us all out. We went to the drinks, grabbing a cup. I could tell that Shane was looking at us, but he seemed to watch Karma and I the most. I wanted to know why and it was frustrating me that I didn't know why. I told Amy I would be back and that I had to borrow Karma, she seemed annoyed but headed outside. I could tell she was going to head that way anyway, considering it was pretty crowded inside. I grabbed Karma's hand and pulled her to an empty hallway, she looked at me confused. "Don't you get the vibe we were invited so Shane could figure the both of us out?" That seemed to confuse her more, she was oblivious.
"Karma, he keeps staring at us both. Especially when we're talking or you're laughing. It's almost a little weird, I just feel like something at this party is gonna happen." She put her hand on my arm, smiling softly up at me. Our height difference showing. as she was over a foot shorter than me. "It'll be ok, I promise. Just go with the flow of tonight, I'll stay by your side, ok?" I nodded and we walked back, I saw Amy come in with Shane following behind shortly after. Oh god, he must have talked to her alone. She came over to us, whispering harshly under her breath. "Shane just accused me of being gay, and you two as well." "Would it be a problem if we were, sis?" Amy looked shocked at that, before shaking her head. "Of course not, but we are obviously not!" I licked my lips, "Well, I don't know about you two but I am."
Karma and Amy's eyes shot to me, their eyes wide."What? I just never told you guys, I haven't told anyone." "Wow, I didn't even realize. That's just, wow." I looked at Karma, I knew she was awkward but that was a weird response. "I don't know how you could have, it wasn't like I was painting myself in the lesbian flag." I finished my drink and grabbed another, I didn't know if I was going to drink it, but holding it seemed to calm my uneasy nerves. I went outside, it was quiet, with only a few people but not as many as there were inside. I knew I probably shouldn't have left Karma and Amy, or be alone since it meant that Shane would probably try and find me.
I called it, because not even a few minutes later he came walking over to me. I knew I couldn't run off, that would seem suspicious, there was no way he didn't see Amy talking to us. "I was hoping I could get you alone, you were glued to Karma's side!" I looked at him, smiling. "Yeah, we're pretty close." He wiggled his eyebrows, it took everything in me to not roll my eyes. "So, you two make a cute couple." "Oh, we're not.." He shook his head and smiled, "You can tell me, I won't say anything I promise." "I'm gay, I will admit that. But I won't admit that to a whole school, because well it's Texas. And Karma well.." I didn't get to say she wasn't gay because he was pulling me inside. He grabbed Karma's hand and pulled us to the front.
"These two girls right here were scared to come out! They thought we wouldn't accept them!" People booed at the idea, "I say we give them a warm coming out! Let's elect them Homecoming Queens!" I could see Lauren glaring at us, I didn't even realize she was there. She grabbed her boyfriend Tommy's hand, rushing out of the house as everyone cheered for us. He had our hands above his head, I looked at Karma concerned. She was just watching everyone cheer for us, I knew right then we were fucked there was no way she was ever gonna let this go.

The next day when I picked up Karma with Amy in the car, Karma gave me a look. "We are not pretending to be a couple, it's one thing everyone knows I'm a lesbian now and it's another to be in a fake relationship with my straight best friend." Amy gasped, and I rolled my eyes. "Well we can't pretend to date, can we sis? No, so shut up." She rolled her eyes and looked at us, "Yeah Karm, this is a bad idea." She pouted, "Do you think I'm not girlfriend material?" "I did not say that, but I can't get an actual girlfriend if I have a fake one, can I?" She sighed, leaning against the seat. "We can break up after homecoming, that's only a few weeks." I parked outside the school, looking back at her.
"You have to make this believable, you know this right? That means kissing, hand holding, not being weird." She scoffed, "I am not weird," We both looked at her, "Okay, fine, I know that. I can do this, you'll just be my first kiss." I leaned against the wheel, "You've never kissed anyone? I shouldn't take that from you," She shook her head, "It's okay, I understand and it's worth it. Am I gonna be yours?" I shook my head, "No, I've kissed and done all the firsts before." They both looked at each other before me, "All of them?" I nodded, getting out. I opened Karma's door and she got out, I took her hand into mine. "We got this, now, don't be weird." She nodded, "Don't be weird." We walked through the school, posters of our faces everywhere. "Okay, I know I can't be weird but this is weird right?" I nodded, people cheered for us and were handing us muffins.
They were even handing Amy doughnuts, how they know she loves those is a little concerning. "I don't think I've ever been handed so many baked goods." Karma nodded in agreement, I walked to our lockers and we put away our bags and grabbed what we needed. "I'm gonna walk you to your class and kiss you, okay?" She nodded a blush on her cheeks at the idea. I held her hand as we walked to class, I stopped at her door and she looked at me. "See you after class," She nodded and I kissed her softly, letting my lips linger before pulling away. I walked away and headed to my class. I was going to need to figure out how to survive everything going on.
The school day was slow, everyone stared at me, especially when I was with Karma. I hated it, I loved being hidden, not being noticed by our peers. I was fine only a few people knowing my name, not counting the teachers and lunch ladies. But now everyone knew my name, and I hated it. When we finally got home, dinner was started. We sat at the table once it was ready, Bruce had Lauren say a prayer and we started eating. "How was school?" Lauren looked at our parents, "You'll never guess what the school did, they elected lesbians to be homecoming queens." I looked at them, Bruce shook his head. "Now sugar, that's not a nice thing to say."
"No, Daddy I'm serious. They elected two girls to be homecoming queens, like together." Mom and Bruce shook their heads, "That school is just a mess," I scoffed and dropped my fork. "They're a mess because they accept the girls for who they are? I'm sorry, but that sounds amazing. Sounds a lot better than this house," I stood up and Amy's eyes were wide, she looked at me like I was crazy. "I'm sorry you're so threatened that Karma and I are gonna win because you and Tommy are just a boring couple. I'm a lesbian and I'm even more gay for Karma." My mom dropped her fork on her plate, clanking loudly. "I'll be in my room, you know, being super gay. Don't touch me, wouldn't wanna catch it." I made sure to bump into Lauren as I passed the table.
I walked upstairs and closed the door behind me, I grabbed my phone and called Karma. "Hey, girlfriend. What's up?" "Do you think your parents would let me sleep over? I just came out to my Mom and Bruce. It wasn't the best thing I've ever done," She laughed, "Of course, come over." I hung up the phone and packed a bag, Amy came into my room and looked at me. "Where are you going?" "Just heading to Karma's, I don't wanna be in this house tonight. I'll pick you up in the morning, I promise." She hugged me, "Can't believe you did that, Mom hasn't moved from the table." I rolled my eyes and I walked downstairs, Mom looked at me. "Where are you going?" I put my bag over my shoulder, looking at her.
"Anywhere but here," "Are you going to Karma's?" "Yes, I am going to be with my girlfriend and her parents. Because they accept us, and at least I know they can look at me with love in their eyes." She shook her head, "I still love you, but this isn't who you are. You aren't... gay." I laughed, "I really am, I've been gay for years. I've had girlfriends, lesbian sex, everything that would put you into a coma. So, if you can't love me knowing I am gay, then you don't love me. I've loved you through all the heartbreak of your marriages, and through the trauma your boyfriends have put us through. And I love Bruce, I don't like Lauren, but he makes you happy. I love you no matter what, but you, the mother, can't love me for me." I walked out of the house and got into my car, driving to Karma's.
I was happy she wasn't far at all, because I kind of wanted to slam my car into a tree. Not to kill or hurt myself, but because it would probably distract me. I parked my car and got out, locking it as I walked to the door. I knocked as I opened the door slowly, I remember her parents telling me I never had to knock. Molly came over, Lucas not far behind her. "Natalie, I'm so sorry to hear about home. I know how your mom can be, you're always welcome here. Amy too, our home is your home." They hugged me, rubbing my back. "Thank you, Mrs and Mr. Ashcroft, it means a lot. I'm just gonna give my mom some time to think, but if it doesn't get easier I will be here. Am I sleeping on the couch?" They laughed, "Oh honey, we understand love. Who are we to stop it? You can sleep in Karma's room, that's where she is right now." I smiled, nodding.
I went to her door and knocked softly, it opened and she looked at me. "Are you ok?" I nodded, "Better now that I'm here," She smiled and grabbed my hand, pulling me inside the room. We sat on her bed and I looked at her, "Can I ask you something? Promise to be honest?" She nodded, looking into my eyes. "Other than popularity, why did you wanna do this?" She licked her lips, "To be honest, I always knew I wasn't straight. I wasn't scared to come out to my parents, or you and Amy. I was scared to come out to myself, to the school, I know how some people view things." I nodded, "So you aren't straight? But you don't have feelings for me?" She laughed, "No I am not straight, but as cute as you are. I do not have romantic feelings for you. But, I wouldn't mind kissing you until I find someone myself." I smiled, set my bag down, and laid on her bed.
I kicked my shoes off and she laid next to me, looking into my eyes. "Hi," She smiled, "Hi," I moved some hair from out of her face, "No strings attached, understand?" She nodded, "No strings attached." I looked at her for permission and she nodded, I pulled her into a soft kiss. She kissed me back, her hand finding its way tangled into my hair. I moved to lay her on her back, straddling her thighs. We pulled away when we needed air, her lips swollen and her eyes dark. I started kissing down her neck, nipping the skin and sucking on it. She gasped and threw her head back, I smiled against her skin. I pulled away and kissed her again, the kiss being full of want and need. Her hand found its way under my shirt, which wasn't unwanted.
I would have gone further, but growing up she always talked about only doing it with someone she loved. That wasn't me; I pulled away and shook my head. "We can't," She was breathing quickly, her eyebrows furrowed. "Why?" I licked my lips, looking down at her. "For years you wanted to do it with someone you loved, that's not me." I took her hands out from under my shirt, sitting up on her thighs. I held her hands in mine, "I would love to go further with you, but I don't want you to regret it." She nodded, taking a deep breath. I moved and laid back down beside her, "I wouldn't have regretted it," "It could change after it happened, I want you to be one thousand percent sure. I don't want to rush into anything, especially since we aren't actually dating." She nodded, and I looked at the clock.
"I understand, I do. If maybe I am ready, will you?" I nodded, smiling at her. "Yes, Karma, I'll be your first when I know you're ready. But, we should go to bed." She nodded, I got up and grabbed my pajamas. I stripped out of my clothes and changed, it wasn't the first time I'd changed in front of Karma. Once I was done I got into bed and she had red cheeks, I rolled my eyes and we got under the covers. "It wasn't the first time, Karms." She nodded, "No, I know that. I just, after what almost happened. You've always been attractive to me," I felt my cheeks warm a little, "Thank you, you've always been attractive to me too." She blushed and laid her head on my chest.
It didn't take long for us to fall asleep, before I knew it her alarm was going off.
Karma and I got dressed for the day, and Molly had made us breakfast. We quickly ate before we were on our way to pick up Amy, Karma was sitting in the front with me. I thought she would have worn makeup to cover up the hickeys, but she did not. I parked in front of the house and honked, my Mom was still there. Amy rushed out, Mom not far behind her. Amy climbed into the car and closed the door. I looked at my Mom, whose eyes were on Karma. I could tell she was looking at her neck, I wanted to piss her off and kiss Karma but I thought better of it and drove off. "How'd it go after I left?" Amy scoffed, "She lectured me about you being gay, that I must have known and I should have told her so we could fix it. I told her I only learned recently, and that it wasn't her business. Besides, that you can't be fixed, she thinks it's a phase. Or something Karma set you up to, she'll come around." I shook her head, "No she won't."
We pulled into the parking lot, and I parked. I got out and went to Karma's door, opening it for her. She kissed my cheek and Amy got out, looking at Karma and then her neck. "Holy shit, did you do that?" I looked away, smirking. "She did yes," Amy got close, whispering. "I thought you two were faking it?" "We are, but why can't I have some fun with her?" Amy looked at her confused, "Cause you're straight?" "Am I?" She looked at me and pecked my lips, her hand found mine and we walked into school. Of course, everyone's eyes were on me, well on us. Shane came over, "You guys are so bold, I love it. The possessive marks look good on you Ashcroft," Karma just smiled and we walked to our lockers, I dropped her off at her class and started walking to mine.
But I was then pulled into an empty classroom, a hand over my mouth.
Chapter Text
The hand fell from my face and I turned around, seeing Lauren. "Can I help you, Lauren?" She pulled me away from the door, "I don't know what you and Karma are playing, but it needs to end." I scoffed, crossing my arms. "Listen, one I didn't ask to be outed, two I am genuinely gay." "I don't think you're not, but I need this." I shook my head, "Lauren, what is this really about?" She turned away from me, "I'm different than you, my life was written in the stars whether I wanted it to happen or not. I didn't want it to happen, Daddy wanted me to be in pageants, do all these girl things." I looked at her confused, "But why?" She whispered, "Because, to him, I wasn't girly enough." I walked closer to her, turning her around. "Lauren, I can't stop the school from voting for us. I do not plan on being with Karma for long, but the school will still vote for us. Even if we broke up, I know damn well they would vote for us." She nodded, and I rubbed her biceps.
"Let's sit down, you can vent to me. I might not like you, but sometimes you just need a listener." We sat down, I could tell she wanted to run before she revealed anything, her eyes kept glancing at the door. "I was born intersex, which was Daddy's worst nightmare. I was introduced as a 'boy', then as I was growing, and Mama was getting sick I started showing signs of being a girl. So they had me tested, which is when they learned that I was intersex. Ever since then, I've been proving to everyone around me, that I was a girl." I shook my head, "But you are a girl, that is who you identify as." She sniffled and looked at the desk, "I wish it was as easy as it was for you, to just stand up for yourself no matter what, I wish I could just yell that I was intersex." I was shocked at that, softly laughing to myself. I could tell she was staring at me, "You know, if you weren't a bitch when we met this would have been a lot easier." She nodded, "I'm sorry about that," I shrugged, waving her off.
"Worse things have happened to me, besides, you're gonna be my step-sister. I think I can forgive you for it." She looked away when I brought the step-sister thing up, I was gonna say something but she looked at me. "It would be so much easier if they weren't getting married," I looked at her confused, my head tilted slightly. I was about to open my mouth but her lips were on mine, my eyes widened, and before I could do anything she pulled away. Her eyes were just as wide, she stood up. "Don't tell anyone." She rushed out and I put my hand to my lips, I didn't know how long I was sitting there but eventually, the bell rang. I jumped up and walked out of the empty classroom, going into the packed hallway. I saw Karma looking around for me, and once she saw me she had a smile. I could see the fact she was concerned, considering Amy most likely already told her I didn't show up to class.
She came over and grabbed my hand softly, we started walking to class. "Hey, how come you didn't go to class?" I looked at her, licking my lips softly. "Oh just didn't feel like going, you know? But it's alright, I'll be going to the rest of the classes." She nodded and we walked into the classroom, sitting next to each other. I tried to focus on the rest of the day, but it was practically impossible. All I could think about was the kiss, the way Lauren's face was after the kiss. Did she always feel this way about me? Was this something because she wanted to use me to figure out her sexuality? The questions I would probably never have an answer to.
By the end of the day, it was obvious Lauren was ignoring me, so I left her alone. I wasn't going home, I would be going back to Karma's. So I dropped Amy off, watching her go inside as Lauren also pulled up next to me. I looked at her and she glanced at me, before heading inside with Amy. I backed out and went to Karma's, I parked outside her house and we went inside. "Okay, are you going to finally tell me what's going on?" I looked at her confused, smiling at her mom as we passed. "I don't know what you're talking about." She just stared at me, "I can't talk about it, I promised." I didn't, I wasn't able to say anything after she left, but I would keep the promise even if she didn't know it. "I won't tell anyone, I promise too." I shook my head, "It's not something I could just tell someone, it was... it's not my thing to tell." She sat on her bed, "Can you tell me without telling me who?" I bit my lip, "I would say yes, but if she was to be awkward around me, knowing you, you'd know then." She pouted but I just ignored it, I sat next to her on the bed.
"Tell me one day?" I nodded, "One day," She laid her head on my shoulder, and we just sat there until her mom said it was dinner time. We walked out and sat down, they smiled at me. "So, are you going to be staying with us permanently?" I looked at Karma who had a smile, "I was thinking of going home tomorrow, get more clothes if needed. If my mother is still acting the same, then I think I would stay here. I just don't want to give up on her yet." They nodded and we started eating, I looked at Karma who held my hand on the table. I knew she was comforting me, but also acting coupley around her parents. Once we were done eating Karma and I helped her mom wash the dishes, though Molly protested. "Thank you girls for the help, though you didn't need to help out." I smiled at her mom, "Just trying to help out around her, you're letting me stay here with your daughter. It's the least I could do," She kissed both of our heads and just smiled.
I followed Karma into her bedroom, where we laid down. "You know, I didn't think acting like girlfriends would be this easy." I laughed softly and looked at her, "It's easy with you, I don't know why." She kissed me softly, I kissed back. However my brain still thought of Lauren, and I tried to push it away. I wished for the memory to disappear, it was something I couldn't dwell on. When we pulled away I got up and started changing for bed, she did the same and we got under the covers. We kept our hands to ourselves and ended up falling asleep, Karma's arm wrapped around me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was sitting in Karma's room, Karma was out with her parents getting groceries. I had decided to stay, I wasn't in the mood to go shopping. While sitting I heard a knock on the front door, I got up and went to the front door. I wasn't told someone should be coming, but I opened it anyway; Standing there was Lauren. "What are you doing here?" "Can I come in?" I nodded and she walked in, "Is Karma here?" I shook my head and we went to the living room, "No it's just me right now." We sat down next to each other, I looked at her. "Why did you come here?" She looked into my eyes as if she was searching for something. "I needed to come talk to you," I nodded, I would let her talk. "The kiss meant something to me, it meant a lot. I want to be the one who dances with you at homecoming, the one who kisses you under the disco ball." I furrowed my eyebrows. "What are you saying?"
She stayed silent for a moment, getting up which I followed. She walked to the front door, and I grabbed her hand softly. "You don't have to be scared, you can talk to me." She licked her lips, my eyes following the movement. Then she kissed me, this time I wasn't shocked. This time she didn't pull away like I burned her, I pulled her closer to me and kissed her back. I took her jacket off, and it fell to the ground. She pulled away and started kissing my neck, "Take me to a bed, Natalie." I picked her up and carried her to Karma's room, laying her on the bed. She took her shirt off, and I did the same. We took each other's clothes off and I pulled her into a kiss, her hands roaming my body caused goosebumps to form. I started kissing down her body, her back arching with the kisses. Once I got between her legs I started kissing her thighs, and just as I was going to get where she needed me most.
The alarm went off.
I sat up quickly, my body felt hot as I took quick deep breaths. Karma shifted and turned the alarm off, sitting up and rubbing her eyes. I quickly calmed myself, she looked at me and smiled. "Ready for school?" I nodded quickly and got up. We took turns using the bathroom, every time my eyes shut all I could see was Lauren's naked body. This was not the plan, how could a simple kiss do this to me? It was ridiculous, why didn't Karma do this to me? Or that one girl I kissed behind the school? But when Lauren kisses me, it's the only thing I can focus on. After breakfast we went and picked up Amy, I knew the two of them could tell I was weirdly quiet. Luckily neither of them questioned me. "So Amy, how has your mom been?" She looked at Karma and rolled her eyes, "She keeps asking me when Nat will be coming home, she wants to talk to you. I don't know what it's about," I nodded with a hum, pulling up to the school.
I happened to park by Lauren, I got there as she was talking to Tommy at the car. She looked at me, I kept my eyes on her before she eventually turned away and pulled Tommy with her as they went inside. Karma grabbed my hand and kissed my cheek, "Let's get this day over with," I nodded and we went inside. Throughout the day I wondered if Lauren would find me again, but she didn't. She would turn a corner every time I was heading toward her, even if it wasn't my intention. She was completely avoiding me, and I didn't know why. Well, I did, but I just wanted to talk about it. I wasn't mad at her if my dreams said anything. I knew I would see her at home, so I would leave it at that. She couldn't avoid me there, it would be weird. Our parents would probably question it, maybe not, but I would still try once I get home.
I dropped Karma off and took Amy and I home, I didn't tell her I was coming home so she was shocked. "If Mom continues to act the way she has been, I'm not staying. I've already discussed it with Molly and Lucas, I am welcome to live there." Amy nodded and tapped my hand softly, I got out of the car once it was parked. I went inside with Amy, I looked and saw Bruce at the dining room table with a book, Mom was cooking dinner. When I walked in her eyes found mine, she stopped cutting whatever it was she was cutting and came over. I tensed up and backed up a little, she stopped and just looked at me. "You're home," I nodded, "Am I welcomed here? Every part of me?" She looked at Bruce, "We can worry about that later, just eat dinner with us." I shook my head, "No, I need to know now. Do you have a problem with me being gay?" She was silent, I looked at Bruce who was looking at me.
"Say the words, Mom." "It isn't who I want you to be, I don't agree with it. But I love you and I want you home," I clenched my fist, I could see Lauren and Amy watching us. "And if I brought my girlfriend over, whether that was Karma or not. Would you accept us?" "It would take getting used to it, but I will not shun you." "Molly and Lucas have offered me to live with them so that I am comfortable." She took a step back, I could see Lauren's eyes widen in the background. "You can't leave, you live here." "I don't want you hating me, You might love me, you might want me home, but you will still hate a part of me. A big part of me, I can stay here on the weekends, live with them during the week." She scoffed, "This isn't like co-parenting, Natalie. You're staying here," "Not until you fully accept me until you fully love me." "And if I can't?" I crossed my arms, "Then I'll never come back, Mom." She looked at Bruce, he was the main issue wasn't he?
"I will learn, we will learn. I love you, I just want you to be here." "Fine, I will try, but one comment out of line and I'm gone." She nodded, "Okay, I can work with that." "Okay, I'm gonna head up to my room." She went back to the kitchen and I walked upstairs, going into my room. I texted Karma to let her know I would be staying home, but if something happened I would be staying with her again. She said okay, I knew her parents would always accept me, no matter what. When I changed out of what I was wearing I went to Lauren's room, knocking softly. A few moments later she opened the door, looking up at me. "I just wanna talk, please." She let me in and locked the door, locking the bathroom door so Amy wouldn't come in. She sat on her bed and I stood awkwardly in the room, looking at her. "Talk," I nodded and put my hands in my pockets, "The kiss, why?" She just looked at me, and I bit my lip.
"Because I wanted to kiss you," "But why?" She sighed, "Because I like girls, I find you attractive. I decided fuck it, I'm sorry I kissed you without your consent. I know you don't even see me the same, you're with Karma." I licked my lips, laughing nervously. "Yeah, with Karma." She looked into my eyes and stood up, she started walking towards me and I backed up against the door. Her breath was in my ear, and I heard her unlock the door before stepping back. I put my hand on the handle, "You don't have to apologize for kissing me, I'd let you do it again." She looked at me confused, I stuttered out "I-if I wasn't with K-Karma..." She nodded and sat on her bed, I left her room and went into mine. I took a deep breath, leaning against my door.
Once dinner was done we all sat at the table, they said their prayer and we started eating. "Oh, there was a reason I was hoping to see you, Natalie. It's about Lauren," I choked on my food and Amy tapped my back. "What um about Lauren?" "Well, Lauren needs a dance partner for the pageant she's going to be in. I thought you'd be perfect, with your background in dancing, your love for it." I licked my lips, "I gave up on that for band Mom, I haven't danced in a year." "It's fine Farrah, I didn't think she would agree anyway." I looked at Lauren, "I'm rusty, so if you can give me time to warm up to your dance, I will happily agree. But is that what you guys want to be showing off? Two women dancing together?" I looked at them as I ate, and they shrugged. "It isn't like you'll be kissing, they will know you're sisters." I nodded and looked at my plate, "When do we start?" Lauren looked at me and I could see a subtle smirk, I felt like I just trapped myself.

Chapter Text
Today was the day, the day I had to start rehearsing for Lauren's pageant. Sure I knew how to dance and it would be easy, but here we were, both in leggings and a sports bra... alone. My hand was on her waist and my other was in her hand, I watched our feet as we danced. The feeling of her soft hands on my shoulder, the twitch of her fingers on my bra strap; made this almost impossible. I spun her around and dipped her, my hand going on her lower back and thigh.
Her eyes found mine, I quickly helped her stand and backed away. I cleared my throat and went to the radio, I could feel her eyes on me. "You did great, Nat, truly. You're getting the hang of it quickly." I looked at her as I paused the music, and she walked over. I watched her movement, the small sway of her hips with each step made it hard to keep self-control. "Lauren..." I trailed off, she got in front of me. I looked down at her, I could feel my heart quicken. "You're a natural, Natalie." I gulped quietly, struggling to keep eye contact. "I just have a really great teacher," She smiled, and I could see a faint blush at the compliment. It made me happy to see that even with everything going on between us, I could still fluster her.
Though every time I close my fucking eyes, I still see her naked. So I applaud myself for the little self-control I have right now. What doesn't help is that since that night all I dream about is her, just her and I, sometimes naked, sometimes clothed. The dreams never get far enough, which is a little frustrating. "You know, Natalie, ever since you came home you barely look me in my eyes." I looked away, "See, told you." I looked back at her, the dreams flashing in the back of my mind. She stepped closer, her hand on my bicep. "Lauren, what are you doing?" She smirked and leaned up, her mouth was an inch away from mine. "Something I know we both want," Then her lips were on mine. I kissed back, my hands finding her waist.
Her hands found their way into my hair, gripping tightly. For someone tinier than me, she was in control and I could feel it. She moved me back, pinning me to a wall. Her lips kissed down my neck, sucking on my pulse point. "God, is this a dream?" I felt her smile against my neck, her teeth grazing my skin. "No, this is real." She kissed my chest, her lips on the edge of my bra. "We shouldn't do this," She pulled away and looked at me, "I know, but I want to." I licked my lips and nodded, her eyes traced the way my tongue licked my lips. "This is really bad, the way we feel each other. Isn't it?" She rubbed my cheek, "Maybe it's bad, maybe it isn't. But I want you more than I've wanted anyone in my life."
"I want you too, I just don't want you to get in trouble." "You're worried about me?" I nodded, "No matter what, I'll get in trouble. They will think I forced myself onto you, which is not the truth obviously. You kissed me first... but I don't want you to have a bad relationship with your dad, or my mom." She shook her head, scoffing. "You think I care? If I cared I wouldn't have kissed you, either time." I nodded and kissed her, she kissed back with just as much fever and passion. She put her hand on my waist, causing goosebumps to form under her skin. She smiled in the kiss, pulling me closer. We slowly went to the ground, she moved so I was straddling her. Her hands on my thighs, I kissed her neck. "Don't leave any marks, okay?" I nodded and just kissed the skin softly.
She pulled my head away from my neck and kissed me again, her tongue sliding into my mouth. I moaned at the feeling, our tongues fighting for dominance; Which she won. I couldn't help but move my hips, grinding against her. She moaned into my mouth, her grip on my thigh tightening. She pulled away, my bottom lip between her teeth. "You're playing a dangerous game, right now." I nodded, "I know, God I know." She smiled, rubbing my thighs softly. "I don't want our first time rushed in a dance studio. I want it to be special, in a bed, where I can make you moan as loud as you want." I blushed, feeling my ears heat up.
"You're so beautiful when you blush, Natalie." I kissed her softly, it was quick but everything I needed to say. "We should pack up and head home," I nodded and we got up, we silently packed up our things. I couldn't keep my eyes off of her, my thoughts were just of her. I put my shirt on, grabbing my bag. We walked out and got in my car, I started it and looked at her. "When we get there, we need to act as normal as possible. Okay?" She nodded, "Yeah I know, don't worry if I can act normal to the point you didn't know I was pinning over you, I think I can act normal after making out with you." I nodded and drove home, I parked the car and we walked in.
My eyebrows furrowed as I saw my mom and Bruce with suitcases, "Where are you guys going?" "Oh, girls! We totally forgot to tell you, Bruce got a little vacation time and we decided we would have a pre-honeymoon." I looked at Lauren than my mom. "Oh, okay. Well have fun guys," She smiled, "Lauren, no boys, same goes for Amy, and Natalie, no girls over." I nodded, "Yes, ma'am." She smiled and hugged us goodbye, doing the same with Amy when she came down. Once they were gone Lauren went to her room, I looked at Amy. "Hey, can I talk to you?" She nodded and we sat down, "As you know, Karma and I aren't actually dating." She nodded, "Yeah, duh." "There's this girl, I really want to... you know with her. We can't at her place, and I was wondering if you could head to Karma's until tomorrow? I'm gonna ask Lauren the same thing." She laughed and patted my back, "Sure, player." She got up and went to her room.
When she came down she had a bag, "I said a day," She shrugged, "Just text me when to come back, seriously it's fine." I blushed, "Need me to drive you?" She shook her head, grabbing my keys. "I'll drive myself if that's fine." I nodded, "It's fine, bye Amy." She laughed and walked out, I leaned on the couch. "That was easy."
I took a deep breath and walked upstairs, knocking on Lauren's door. She opened it and smiled when she saw me, "Hey," "Hi... um, I got Amy to go to Karma's." She looked shocked and confused, "Really? How?" I rubbed my neck, "I said I wanted to have sex with this girl and couldn't do it at hers." She hit my chest softly, before gripping my shirt and pulling me into a kiss. I moaned at the feeling and let her drag me into the room, she closed her door and gently pushed me onto her bed. I was panting from the kiss, looking at her. She was still in her sports bra and leggings, so I could see her toned stomach. "You're so beautiful, Lauren." She smiled and took her sports bra off.
Yep... I forgot how to breathe. "Even better than my dreams," She smirked and walked closer, she gently kicked my feet apart and stood between my legs. "You dream about me a lot?" I nodded, "Every night," She traced my jaw with her fingers, moving hair behind my ear. "Are you sure about this?" I nodded, "Yes, I'm so sure, Lauren." She smiled and kissed me softly, our lips fit perfectly like a puzzle piece. She pulled away and pulled my shirt and sports bra off, she looked at my chest and I blushed. I almost felt self-conscious under her gaze, but the shine in her eyes proved she loved the look of my body. "You're sexy, beautiful, gorgeous, pretty, all the words. That's you, Natalie." I blushed and she laid me down, I moved so I was against the pillows. She moved between my legs and rubbed my hips, she leaned and kissed my chest.
I gasped at the feeling, arching into her touch. Her lips closed around my nipple, sucking softly. I moaned and my hand found her hair, I moved it out of her face and put it into a ponytail. She looked into my eyes as she gently bit down, I gasped and gripped harder. "Lauren, fuck, that's so unfair." She smirked against my chest and moved to my other nipple, doing the same treatment while keeping eye contact. She slowly kissed down my navel, licking my skin softly. She kissed right above the waistband of my leggings, "Can I?" I nodded, "Yes, you can." She smiled and slowly pulled them off, I lifted my hips to make it easier. "Such a good girl," I blushed and she tossed them on the floor, she looked at my panties and smirked.
"You're so wet for me, your panties are even soaked." She gently touched the wet spot, adding just enough pressure to make me gasp and buck my hips. "Tsk tsk, stay still. Can you do that for me, baby?" I nodded, the slight pleasure making it too hard to speak. I wanted to beg, it was pathetic, but god did I need her. "L-Lauren, please." She looked into my eyes, "Please what baby?" "Anything, God, anything. Just don't tease me anymore," She kissed my stomach, kissing up my body.
"There's something I need to tell you." I nodded, looking into her eyes. They were soft, but I could tell they were filled with fear under the lust. "I'm intersex..." She trailed off, I looked at her confused, I didn't fully understand what that meant. "I was born with XXY chromosomes. I'm a female through and through, and I just... I also have a fully functional penis." I didn't say anything at first, my mind trying to catch up to what she said. She went to grab her clothes and mine, but I stopped her.
She looked at me, her eyes wide, tears pricking at the corners. "Lauren, it's okay, I just wasn't expecting that." I held her hand, pulling her close to me. "I don't see you any different, Lo, you're still the sexy badass I'm already falling for." She laughed, tears falling. I leaned up and wiped them, kissing her softly. She kissed back, her hands finding my hips. I flipped us and kissed her neck, "I think this makes you even more attractive," She gasped softly as I scraped my teeth against her skin. I knew I couldn't mark her, though I wanted to show she was mine.
"Now, let me show you just how much I want all of you, Mistress." She groaned and through her head back at the word, I slowly pulled down her leggings, finding compression boxers. I could see her bulge, and Jesus was it big. "May I?" She nodded, watching me again. I slowly pulled them down, licking my lips as I started to see her very impressive shaft. Once her cock was free it sprung, hitting her stomach in the process. "Holy shit, Lauren." She watched me as I just stared at it, I didn't know what else to do. It was huge, thick, and holy fucking shit was it sexy. I slowly reached out and touched it, I was completely and utterly curious. I had never seen one in person, let alone held one.
"And you called me a tease?" I looked back at Lauren, her face was flushed, something unlike her. "I just... I've never." She nodded, grabbing my hand and helping me rub her. I watched our hands, her hand guiding me. This was definitely the sexiest thing I had ever seen, had ever gone through, felt. The sensation, the act, it left a wildfire in my stomach. It felt like I was being electrocuted, and I didn't want the feeling to go away. I rubbed faster, watching her head fall back as she let out an appreciative moan. Her hand fell off of mine, giving me control to pleasure her. Her eyes weren't on mine, I took advantage of that and licked her tip.
"Oh! N-Nat, you feel so good for me baby." I smiled and sucked her tip, she finally looked back at me and I slowly took her down my throat. I gagged a little at the intrusion, but I refused to quit. I took her all the way until my nose hit her pelvis. I looked up at her through my lashes, her mouth was opened as quiet pants and moans came out. She moved my hair out of my face, holding it into a ponytail like I did her. "Such a good girl, you know just how to use that pretty mouth of yours." I slowly bobbed my head, any words she went to say died in her throat as I swallowed around her. Her grip tightened on my hair, causing me to moan at the pain.
I don't know if it was intentional but she started guiding my head, her eyes closed at the pleasure. I let her guide me, moving my head at a pace she wanted. It was dirty, wild, and filthy; I fucking loved it. Every time she would pull my head all the way up and force it down I would gag, I was breathing through my nose to help relax my throat. She pulled my head away with a groan, taking a deep breath. "I need inside you, right now." I nodded and let her lay me down, she grabbed a condom and slid it on. I watched her movements, my thighs were slick with my excitement. "Are you ready baby?" I nodded, looking into her eyes, I was so ready.
"I need words," I licked my lips, tasting her on my tongue still. "Yes, I'm ready. I'm so ready, please ple-" My words died in my throat as she slowly slid in me, I gasped and gripped her shoulders. Her eyes were on me, watching for my reaction as she slid inch and inch inside me. I let out a long moan as our pelvis met, this was everything I needed and I was so fucking full. I pulled Lauren closer, my nails digging into her shoulders. "Are you okay baby?" I nodded, kissing her jaw. "I'm okay, more than okay. I'm sinfully full, mistress." She chuckled and slowly started moving, "If we need to stop, you tell me." I nodded, moaning as I threw my head back.
She took that as her chance to suck and bite my neck, I dug my nails deeper as her hips moved faster. "That's right baby, mark my back." I moaned loudly, "Harder, mistress." She bit my neck harder, "I didn't hear a please," I gasped "I'm sorry, mistress. Please, please move harder, faster. Please, mistress, I beg." She licked the spot she bit, "That's more like it," She started pounding into me, not holding back.
"Oh my god, like that!" She kissed me as her hips moved fast and hard, the rooms filling with my moans and skin slapping against skin. I was so wet that you could hear it with every thrust, it was filthy. "You feel so good around me, so tight." She kissed down my lips, to my jaw, then my neck. "Mistress, I'm so close." She kissed down my chest, "I know baby girl, your pussy is so tight. You're fucking milking my cock, you're gonna be a good slut and cum for me." I nodded quickly, "I'm gonna cum, I'm cumming for you!" She sucked on my left nipple, biting down. "Cum on my cock, be a good girl." I screamed out her name, cumming hard around her cock.
She didn't slow down, moaning in my ear as she came in the condom. "Take it, baby, take it for me." I gasped and moaned, I was taking it. Of course, there was the slight thought that said 'What if she didn't have the condom on...' but I pushed that thought away. She slowed down and pulled out, I didn't watch her, my eyes closed as I caught my breath. I felt her kiss my cheeks, and nose, before pecking my lips. I opened my eyes, looking into hers. "Are you okay? I didn't go too far did I?" I shook my head, my hands trailing up her arms and to her face.
"You were absolutely perfect, mistress." She smiled and laid with me, she held me close as we calmed down with each other. Aftercare was something I never really partook in and never thought I would, but deep down I was happy she held me after our moment. Though I wasn't overwhelmed, it was nice to have Lauren's arms wrapped around me with the slight soreness between my legs.
~~~~~~~~~
Let's just say I didn't call Amy to come home until it was the day our parents were gonna be home. After they had landed they had remembered to tell us when they would be home, exactly 9 days. Each day I swore Lauren found a way to put her cock in me, whether that was with me cooking, reading, showering, or sleeping, it didn't matter. The minute her cock was hard I was ready for her, of course, she listened to me when I didn't want sex. She knew my limits and I knew hers, but I loved having her cock in me. Now knowing I wasn't going to wake up to her mouth on my pussy, or her cock thrusting in me; It made me feel deprived.
I had kept my sinful breeding thoughts to myself, it was hard because as she would thrust into me I wanted to beg for her cum but I knew I couldn't. But I will say this, these 9 days she has fucked me in every room, on every fucking service she could. I think she thoroughly ruined me for everyone. And it was impossible to hide the bites, the scratches, the bruises, the hickies, all of it. So when my mom and Bruce got home, I got a lecture. Lauren and Amy were holding in their laughs, "I told you, Natalie, no girls!" I tried explaining but the look she gave me made me shut up.
Lauren was behind my mom, looking at me. She had a shit eating grin, she did this, and she fucking loved it. "You're grounded, no going out, no Karma's." I just nodded, she and Bruce went to their room to unpack. Amy came over and tapped my shoulder, "Maybe don't have sex for 9 days straight, sis." I blushed profusely, Lauren finally let out her laugh. I wanted to slap her and pin her to the wall, mark her before sucking her cock. She looked at me, I knew just looking in my eyes she could tell what I was thinking. Her laugh died in her throat and she cleared her throat, "You had it coming, being such a slut." My breath hitched, Amy looked between us. She looked at me, waiting for my snarky comment but it never came.
I could tell she was trying to add everything up, the way my eyes darkened as I looked at Lauren, the way my breath hitched at the insult. "Oh...Oh my fucking God." I looked at her, and Amy's eyes widened. Damn it, she was too smart. "You... and and... Oh my God!" I covered her mouth, "Amy, shut the fuck up. You know nothing, understand me?" She nodded, I looked at the stairs and whispered. "Yes, I am with Lauren. She and I... we... really like each other. I'm sorry I lied to you, but you can't tell anyone. Not Karma, and definitely not fucking Shane." She nodded, and I moved my hand. "I have so many questions..." I nodded, I knew she did. "Ask them while we head to school, got it? Let's not tell mom how Lauren and I haven't gone the whole week." Her eyes widened, she knew, but I think she assumed we told her at least.
"Yeah, I won't tell her." "Thank you, I owe you one." She went to her room and I looked at Lauren, she stalked closer to me. I backed up, and with each step she chased me. I backed into the island, where she fucked me just this morning. "You just can't keep your slutty self in check, had to be so fucking obvious Amy learned about us." Her hand wrapped around my throat, and her voice was laced with venom. "You and I are gonna go on a drive, you understand me?" I nodded, gulping under her hand. She walked away just as we heard our parents coming down, I grabbed a bottle of water for Lauren and I, making snacks.
"What are you two up to?" I looked at my mom, an innocent smile on my face. "Just making a snack," She nodded, and Lauren looked at my mom. "Farrah, I know Natalie is grounded but would it be okay if she took me to the mall? It's so we can try on dresses for the pageant in a few days." My mom thought about it before nodding, "Okay, only this time." I smiled and packed everything, I ran upstairs and got ready. I made sure not to wear any panties under my jeans, once I was done I ran downstairs. Lauren was waiting by the door, a mischievous glint in her eye.
We walked to the car, the snacks and water already in Lauren's hand. I got in the driver's seat while Lauren got in the passenger. We buckled up and I backed out of the driveway, "Go to somewhere secluded." It was an order I knew better than to question, I drove to an abandoned theater, parking in the back. I turned the car off, "In the back seat, be quiet." I did as told and sat down, I looked at her. She did the same, her face was emotionless, I couldn't read her. "You understand that you are in trouble?" I nodded, she raised an eyebrow, "Yes, mistress, I understand." She leaned back in the seat, her eyes on me. "Safe word?" "Waltz," She smirked and patted her lap.
"Bend over my lap, baby." I licked my lips and did as told, I bent over her lap. I bit my lip, I was waiting for her to do just something. She trailed her hand up and down my back, her touches were light over my shirt. "I am going to spank you, for as many times as I seem fit. I expect a thank you after each hit. Do you understand me?" "Yes, mistress." She pulled down my jeans, a dark chuckle slipped out of her mouth. "Look at you, such a fucking desperate slut. Wearing no panties," She dipped her finger between my lips, feeling just how wet I was.
I knew I couldn't look at her, but I heard her suck on her finger after she pulled it away. She rubbed my ass, I tensed slightly my body preparing for her. When it didn't come I pathetically relaxed and that was when she pulled her hand away, a loud slap that echoed in the car hitting my left cheek. "Fuck! Thank you, mistress!" She didn't say anything, continuing her assault on my ass. It stung deliciously, I couldn't help but moan, feeling my slick run down my thighs. Each spank I thanked her, which was twenty times. They were rough, mean, bruising slaps.
After the fifteenth one I had tears running down my face, but I didn't want it to stop. I loved the pain she caused me, the way she proved that I was hers. After the spanks she didn't say anything, all she did was move me so I was bent over with my face against the seat. "You did so good, taking your punishment for me. I'm gonna reward you," I clenched around nothing, I was so fucking excited to feel her inside me again. "As much as I want my cock in you, I forgot condoms." I bit my lip, thinking about if I should say what the demon inside me wanted me to.
"Mistress... it's okay, you can fuck me without it." Her hand stilled on my hips, "Are you sure?" I nodded, "Yes, mistress. I've wanted to feel you raw since our first time." She shook her head, chuckling. I heard her remove her belt and unbutton her pants, I looked back and saw her pull her cock out. I was so fucking excited to feel her cock in me, feel everything the condoms hid from me. I watched as she put some spit on her hand before rubbing it on her cock, "Ready, princess?" I nodded, not able to talk. She usually wouldn't allow that, but I think she was too into the pleasure to care.
She slowly slid inside me, groaning as she gripped my hips. I let out a loud gasp, this was different, and so fucking good. She slowly moved, but I knew she was going to lose control and I couldn't wait. Her grip on me became tighter, her hips moving faster. "Yes, like that mistress! I want it so fucking hard!" I screamed into the car, she let out a growl and started pounding into me without a care. I gripped the seats and screamed in pleasure, her nails digging into my hips. She gripped my hair and forced me up, with a hard thrust my face was pinned to the fogging glass.
I moaned and my eyes rolled back, I was so fucking close. Her hand that was on my hips slid down, rubbing my clit quickly. "Cum for me baby, I wanna feel your wet pussy clenching around my cock." I nodded, tears falling as I cum harder than I had ever before. "Oh god, princess, I'm so close." I was so into the pleasure that surrounded her and I, that my sinful thoughts rolled off my tongue. "Breed me! Please mistress, please please." The pleads were blabs and almost incoherent as she cock pounded into me, searching for release. She didn't second guess, biting my shoulder as she groaned and came in me.
I couldn't help the second orgasm as I felt her hot cum, it filled me to the brim and I loved it. I needed it, needed the feeling of her, I needed every ounce of her. "Holy shit baby, you're fucking milking me." I clenched tighter around her, knowing just how much she loved it. Once we both calmed down she pulled out, keeping me in the same position as she watched her cum spill out of me. "Look at you, such a fucking cum slut for me." I moaned at the insult, I fucking loved it. She helped me get dressed before getting dressed herself.
She pulled me into her lap, holding me close. "While we're out I will buy you a plan b pill, and maybe... if you're okay with it we can do birth control?" I licked my lips and looked up, nodding. "I don't think I can ever be okay with a condom." She laughed, kissing me. I kissed back, closing my eyes and smiling. She pulled away, keeping her hold on me until we eventually got in the front and drove to the mall.
While shopping she kept her hands to herself, me on the other hand. Not so much, but can you blame me with how beautiful she is? We didn't do anything to could get us kicked out, but there were moments where I almost made her fuck me in the dressing rooms. Once we got what we needed we headed home, just in time for dinner. Lauren and I didn't see each other that night, which was really hard for me.
I tossed and turned all night before I eventually got to sleep.
