Blood Bond: Episode 7: The Cat's Out of the Bag

As Christmas neared, things at Xavier's cottage slowly became more interesting. From my mother's camera skills to the adults' constant attempts to set up dates between Xavier and I. Just as I was beginning to feel like a normal high-schooler again, things changed dramatically.

It happened one day during dinner.


"Hey Xavier, can you pass me the rolls?" asks Hank (Xavier's dad in case you already forgot.)

"Yeah sure. Here"

It was about a week before Christmas. We're having  filet mignon for dinner (so far we have been treated to everything from lobster to caviar. Fraya is an excellent cook.) Everything seems to be fine until my dad accidentally cuts himself.

"Ow! Ah I'm bleeding. Can someone give me a bandage?" He asks sucking his finger.

Suddenly my heart starts beating faster. 'Oh no not now!' I think, my fangs slowly growing. "Um p-please excuse me" I say standing up.

"Oh? Are you alright?" asks Fraya, looking concerned.

"Y-yeah I'm fine I'm just full is all." I push in my chair and head towards my room. Hoping that Xavier wouldn't catch on.

I reach my room just in time. Just as I'm about to bite myself though, I hear a knock on the door.

Story #1, Part 8 (by:klee)

I ran in the house seeing my mom and sister at the dinner table eating.

"I'm so sorry that I have been gone so long! I was held up and all these things happened and-"

"You were gone hunny? Oh my goodness, we didn't even notice!"

My mom started to chuckle and so did my sister.

"Wait, you weren't worried about me one bit?!? Its like way past curfew and you didn't even know I was gone?!"

Blood Bond: Episode 6: A Cabin in the Woods for Cristmas

Three weeks have passed and Mr. Brunner still isn't back. I'm beginning to think that Vixen had something to do with it. The rest of my class however (or at least all the boys, who have fallen head over heels for her, anyway) obviously doesn't sense anything suspicious.


Soon winter break will begin and everyone is discussing their plans for the holidays. Most of the people I've talked to recently are planning on visiting relatives or going on a vacation. I, on the other hand, will be doing little more than staying at home and visiting Zandra a few times.

I'm walking down to my locker to grab the things I will need over the break (it's the last day of school before the holidays) when I hear someone calling my name.

"ALOURA! Hey Al!" I turn around to see Xavier running towards me.

"Oh hi Xavier," I say, grinning.

"Um Aloura," he says, trying to catch his breath, "w-would you like to come to my family's cottage in Colorado for the holidays?"

"Oh," I say taken by surprise, "sure! I'd love to! I'll have to ask my parents though."

"They can come too if you'd like." He replies with a grin. "Call me when you know if you can come. We're leaving the day after tomorrow."

I can feel myself blushing as an interesting thought occurs to me: 'does this count as a date?'

Story #1, Part 7 (by:klee)

When I awoke, I found myself in a big room that I was unfamiliar with. The walls were painted a light blue and in the middle of the ceiling was a big window that had a great view of the sky. I looked down and found my self in a bed that was bigger than an average bed. The covers were also blue (I'm starting to sense a trend) and to my surprise, it was a water bed! I leaned forward and started rolling around on the bed, giggling.

"Oh um.. Your awake!"

I froze. I felt my face turn red as I looked up and saw the boy from earlier holding a plate of food by the doorway. I sat up and started twiddling my fingers.

"Ah I um.. I ahh.." I had no idea what to say. I didn't even realized that this was probably his room and that this was probably his bed! I just sat there not saying a word.

He slowly walked up to me and set the plate of food on the end table, then grabbed a chair and put it by the bed and sat there. It took only a couple of seconds till he started snickering.

I felt my face heating up even more. He stopped and looked up at me.

"I'm sorry its just, I wasn't expecting to see you doing that and it was really funny."

"Well I would start laughing too if I saw some one rolling around on my bed."

He smiled and held out his hand.

"I'm Brett, and you are?"

I shook his hand.

"Ally."

"Ally, thats a neat name."

I blushed just a bit. I never really saw what he looked like in till just now. His hair was a lighter brown that was a bit messy, but totally worked for him. He had green eyes that were slightly on the paler side. He had a little smile on his face that made your heart skip a beat. He is kinda cute. Ally get a hold of your self! You have a boyfriend!

Blood Bond: Episode 5: The New Teacher

"Hello everyone!" says Vixen cheerfully. Instead of a long black dress and cloak, today she's wearing a black mini skirt and a dark purple Oxford shirt that's like half way unbuttoned. I can almost feel all the boys in the room's eyes widen as they take in there new "sexy" teacher.

"Well see you," says the vice principal in the same monotonous voice, as he leaves us to the vampire woman.

"All right," says Vixen, giggling like a school girl, "you guys can call me Vicky, okay?"
At this point, I could tell that most (if not all) the guys had developed a crush on her. I rolled my eyes, knowing that from this point on none of us would be doing any real learning.

"So what do you guys normally do in homeroom?" continues Vixen grinning flirtatiously and confirming my suspicions. She flops down in her swivel chair sighing.

"Um Ms. Kuran," starts the class representative raising her hand, "y-you're supposed to take attendance
first."

"Hm? Oh could you please call me Vicky?" Insists Vixen.

"O-okay M-Ms. Vicky." Responds the class rep.

"Well it's a start. Anyways thanks-"

"Oh my n-name is Yue Ms. Vicky."

"Well than thank you Yumi."

"A-actually my name's Yue"

"Were's this uh attendance thingy?" Says Vixen,  completely disregarding Yue. "You there" she points to one of the boys, winking "could you please help me find it?" she flutters her eyelashes and gives him a winning smile.

"Uh I-I... Sure!" says the guy (I think his name is Toby or something) blushing like crazy. He stumbles up to the front to search for the attendance sheet.
