Vampire as a Fiance? NO WAY! (chapter1)

RINGGGGG RINGGGGGG RINGGGG! "Coming coming “I screamed as I tried to make my way down the stairs, I put my foot in the wrong place and tumbled down.

"Ouch" I knew I should have moved into my parent’s old room. It would have saved me some pain. Who in the hell would be coming by at this time of night anyway? It’s probably that drunk Larry across the hall "sigh" he probably locked himself out again.

RINNNNGG RINNNNNGG "OKAY OKAY I’m coming just stop ringing the damn doorbell!" I groggily stood up and went to the door unlocking various locks I managed to open the door a crack without opening my eyes I said "Larry go away I’m not letting you crash on my couch again"

"I'm not Larry" said a cheerful voice.

"That voice" I mumbled half asleep with a few clicks in my head I thrust the door open and screamed gleefully "TRISTAN!!!!!!!"

"Hey little sister! How ya doing?"

"Oh my Gosh but I thought you were stationed in Holland they said you couldn’t even come home for the funeral."

"Ya I got leave for about a week I needed to go over some things with you."

"You do what sort of things? Oh, please come in."

"Oh you know business and stuff...."He stepped through the doorway and his cheerful smile seemed to leave his face.

"God Shulyer how can you live in this place? Doesn’t it kill you everyday just to see all of the old memories with mom and dad? Doesn’t it get lonely?"

I live in a huge penthouse and me and my parents used to live together but couple months ago they died of an incurable disease; they both picked up somewhere in Africa. I’m only 16 so I did take it pretty hard I guess. They had been carrying the virus for about a year so we knew it was going to happen sooner or later. Dad died first soon after we lost mom. She just gave up she said she didn’t want to keep going if she couldn’t spend her days with dad. My brother Tristan is in the Navy and he gets stationed everywhere overseas so he couldn’t exactly make it to the funeral.

I heard a snapping sound only to wake up out of my trance and see Tristan waving a hand in my face saying "Earth to Shulyer anyone home."

"Stop doing that!" I smacked his hand away from my face.

"Ow! That hurt, and all I asked was if you get lonely here and you end up spacing out and smacking me. Jeeeez you’re so abusive. I hope you don’t do that often did you know that spacing out can lead to becoming a psychopath."

"Oh shut up and you’re such a wimp"

"Whatever" he said walking away "I just don’t want to get on your hate list no telling what you would do" he said laughing.

"Not funny and where are you going anyway?

"Oh my dear sister, do you not know me that well I am going to raid your refrigerator of course." I went to the kitchen following him and soon enough his head was buried in the fridge. I got to a bar stool and sat down.

"So do you?" he said "Do I what?" I asked. "Wow I always knew you were slow but really......do you ever get lonely here?" what a smartass... "I’m going to pretend you didn’t say that" but he’s family "and yes I do sometimes when there’s nothing to do and sometimes unpleasant thoughts come to me but what am I going to do Tristan its home. He finally finished his rummaging and came out with leftover pizza.

"Ah tennis shoes what am I going to do with you? He asked. DONT CALL ME TENNIS SHOES! I screamed. He had a huge grin plastered on his face he knew I hated that nickname.

"Actually Tennis shoes that’s exactly what I came here to talk to you about. You can’t stay here anymore."

"Didn’t I tell you NOT to cam me- ah what did you say" I asked a little bewildered.

He was busy shoveling pizza in his mouth it was muffled but I still heard it.

"I said yofff canff sffay heeerr anyfffmore."

"WHAT WHY?" I screamed.

"This is my penthouse now isn’t it?"

He finally swallowed and shook his head.

"Mom and dad left it to some family who lives in Europe. They also didn’t leave you in custody to me since I travel so much. They left you to that family the Dae's. I think that was it Martha and John Dae apparently they are really rich and were like best friends with mom and dad.

My mouth dropped in horror "Then what about the penthouse?" I shrieked "What do I do move out?"

"Well kind of you see they sent me to come and break the news to you and bring you back to Europe. Actually this is really great because you will be closer to me and I don’t have to travel so long to come see you."

"But "I said with venom reaching my lips "What about the penthouse?"

"Oh" he looked at me with surprise. "Well they said they may sell it, it’s not decided yet they could decide to keep it though. When I say these people are loaded they are LOADED."

Tears reached my eyes I didn’t want them to sell it I didn’t want to move away this place held the last memories of my parents. Suddenly Tristan was right there wiping the tears from my eyes.

"Don’t sweat it little sis you’ll like it there I've already met them and they are good people. They have a son to about your age to so you will have friends. Hey I bet if you go quietly you can ask them not to sell the penthouse. Since it means so much to you it would really be no problem for them.”

I sniffed a little "Okay if you say so Tristan. Then when are we supposed to leave?"

"We actually leave tomorrow" he said covering his ears. He probably knew what I was about to do. "What? Tomorrow how am I going to pack everything?"

"Chill sis you don’t need to pack EVERYTHING just the important things. They said they will buy you a whole new wardrobe and stuff so I guess a change of clothes and the important stuff."

Great I get to go across the whole freaking world and live with a rich family and they have a son about my age *Oh joy* hopefully he’s not stuck up but from my encounters that’s most likely impossible ,but at least Ill be closer to Tristan so if I cant take it I can run away to Tristan. Going to live in Europe every girls dream but my worst nightmare.

After some momentary silence Tristan said "Well I’m beat I’m going to go crash on the couch if that guy Larry stops by tell him you have a replacement." I giggled.

"You go get some sleep to." and with that he kissed me on the forehead and left.

I climbed the never ending stairs to my room snuggled under my blankets and fell into an uneasy sleep thinking about the horror filled day to come.
