High School

[buildingaspaceship]

"Indeed it is." He laughs slightly and looks up at the ceiling, before he suddenly hears the door opening downstairs. He heard someone walk up the stairs in heels, and he can smell vampire more prominently, but it wasn't the smell of his family.


"I HEARD YOU WERE BACK IN TOWN!" A high pitched voice squeals, bursting through the doorway into the apartment, a brunette vampire with heavy makeup and short clothing and heels. She sees Leela, then smells her, "oh! I'm sorry! I didn't know you had a 'friend' Emery." She wiggled her eyebrows, not mentioning anything about Leela being a werewolf. She didn't leave, instead walked over and threw herself at of Emery, who was now stood up in a state of bewilderment.

 

[HappyBeingMe]

Leela looks at the person who had walked in, then raises her eyebrow at Emery. She stands up and holds out her hand with a friendly smile etched on her face. "I'm Leela." She says simply a jerks her head to get the hair out of her eyes.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

"Hi Leela, I'm Monica! Welcome to town, I hope Emery isn't biting too hard." She wiggles her eyebrows again and then lounges casually on the couch as if she lived there. Emery wraps his arms around Leelas waist and looks at Monica questioningly. "Monica... Erm..." He starts.

 

[HappyBeingMe]

"So you aren't bothered? By my smell?" Leela asks Monica. The smell of vampire was radiating from her as if it was spilling from her pours. Leela puts her hands over Emery's and tilts her head, she was confused. Who was this chick? How did she know Emery? Was she a good vampire like Emery, or a bad one?

 

[buildingaspaceship]

Monica crinkles her nose slightly. "It's not a very nice smell but, any friend of Emery's is a friend of mine, right?" Her mouth spreads into a wide grin and she flicks her hair over her shoulder.


Emery looks from Leela to Monica, before he grins as well. "I haven't seen you since last year Monica," he laughs and remembers how last year he had needed to get away from his father, and had come here and met Monica. Monica smiles and winks, "I wonder if you're still as good in bed."

 

[HappyBeingMe]

Leela's mouth opens slightly as her face turns as red as a tomato. "Um-uh." Is all she can get to come out of her mouth. This is awkward. She thinks to herself and she bites the inside of her lip continuously, another sore popping up where her teeth had grazed the soft skin. "I have to. Uh, use the bathroom." She says, and quickly walks into the bathroom, shutting the door and looking into the mirror seeing her cut up face.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

Emery stands shocked for a moment and wishes that Leela was still there with him, but he laughs awkwardly at Monica before scratching the back of his neck. "You're still as funny," he smiles and looks away, "But that was once." Its true that they had slept together once, after a night of bloodlust and draining, but they had never been a thing, and he had forgotten about them.

 

[HappyBeingMe]

Leela runs water on her hands, then wipes her face. She was trying to get the redness to go down, but it wasn't working very well. She shook her head and glared into the mirror at her blushing face, then it hit her. Monica and Emery had slept together, it wasn't a big deal, but something in the back of Leela's mind made her want answers. She sighs, then pulls her bottom lip down to look at the sore. It wasn't to bad, but it was pretty painful, it was a bad habit.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

Monica pouts, "I know, don't worry kid, you're too young for us to be a thing. And besides, you have yourself a hot werewolf now, whats she like in bed? Do you do the teeth thing?" Monica speaks loudly, hoping that Leela could hear. Emery looks expressionless, inside he's angry. "Leela and I... We haven't..." Emery looks at the bathroom door for a second before hissing at Monica, "I'm not going to bite Leela."

 

[HappyBeingMe]

Leela slams out of the bathroom after hearing Monica's statement. Her breathing was fast and she was afraid she was going the phase, but she held herself back. "Emery, I'm going to go outside for a while." She says, but inside her head the sentence had been more like this: Hey, I'm going to get the hell out of here, call me back when this thing leaves.: Leela nods, then walks out of the place and towards a tree which she climbed. She sat down on a strong branch and crossed her arms, a low growl emitting from her throat and she tries to stop it.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

Emery slams his hands against the nearest wall before turning and pointing at Monica. "Get out and don't talk to me. We aren't a thing, we never were, and what we ever did meant nothing. I don't want to see you again." He glares at her before finding a pendant in his drawer and slipping it on over his shirt. Monica pouts but leaves, and Emery leaves and follows Leelas smell to a tree, he climbs it and sits next to her on the branch. "Hi."

 

[HappyBeingMe]

Leela looks at him, then looks down staring at her legs. She didn't want to talk right now, she was afraid she'd be rude. She didn't want to be rude to Emery, it wasn't his fault that his 'friend' wouldn't shut her mouth. "Hi." She says quietly, and then turns her head away from Emery looking at anything except for him.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

Emery tilts Leelas head to look at him gently, but he doesn't want to push it so he doesn't try anything else. "Do you want to talk about it? I won't hold back and I want you to know that she meant nothing, it was a year ago, and I don't feel anything for her like I do you." He didn't want Leela to hate him for a choice he made a year ago, when he was a different kind of guy.

 

[HappyBeingMe]

Leela shakes her head and looks up at the sky. "I'm not angry, well I am angry, but not at you." She starts, taking Emery's hand in her own. "It's none of my business what you did a year ago, so we can just drop it. It's the way she barged in, and just.. Said it. She didn't have to, you know? Everything would have been just fine and dandy if she had just shut her mouth." Leela says, her feet swinging out in front of her.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

Emery nods and uses his free hand to play with Leelas fingers. "She is possessive, and jealous. Because you have me by my heart strings, she wants to tear you away from me immediately because of what happened a year ago. But I swear if I had known I'd meet someone like you, then a year ago wouldn't have happened." He smiles and keeps playing with her fingers. "She's gone now anyway, and she's not coming back, and it's just going to be me and you."

 

[HappyBeingMe]

Leela looks at Emery and smiles. "Okay." She says and kisses his lips softly, befpre jumping down from the tree and landing skillfully on her feet. "Catch me if you can!" She teases before running in a random direction, laughing as she does so.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

Emery jumps down from the tree, laughing, and he chases her, running around trying to catch up. He probably could if he didn't want to ruin the moment. Eventually though he gives up and he actually catches up with her, tackling her to the ground, he lands underneath her and he's still laughing, his arms wrapped around her waist.

 

[HappyBeingMe]

"Dang it!" She curses and her bottom lip pokes out slightly. "I thought I could outrun you." She lies, she was a fast runner but she was sure Emery was faster. A slight blush shows up on her face when she notices how they were laying and she bites her lip. She then leans down and kisses Emery's cheek. "Tag, you're it."

 

[buildingaspaceship]

Emery groans and rolls her over so that he's on top of her, his hands at either side of her head, his knees at either side of her thighs. "You can't escape now," he smirks slightly before he kisses the tip of her nose. He didn't think he could ever be so relaxed and energetic with someone, he wasn't being his usual emotionless self, and that was something that Leela brought out in him.

 

[HappyBeingMe]

A playful growl comes from her mouth as pulls his face back down to hers. "Cheater." She whispers before placing her lips on his. She never thought she'd be so comfortable in a position like this, but she was. Her father had always told her that physical contact wasn't a good thing, but what did he know? To Leela it was the most wonderful thing, with Emery that is. She had always freaked out if somebody else touched her.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

Emery doesn't pull back, instead he deepens the kiss, biting lightly on the bottom of Leelas lip and letting their tongues dance. When he eventually does pull back, he kisses her forehead and rolls onto his back so that he's laying next to her, his hands and arms spread out around his head. "Congrats, you caught yourself a leech!" He jokes and props himself up on his elbow so that he's facing Leela.

 

[HappyBeingMe]

"And you've caught yourself a puppy." She says, a smile spreading over her face. She holds up her arms and studies the scrapes on her palms from the tree she had climbed. "Climbing trees naked is not a good thing. Never try it." She jokes, and sits up facing Emery. She pulls her knees up to her chest and hugs them, then rests her chin on them.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

"It's not a good thing if I'm not involved," he winks and looks up at Leela. "But the bruising and scraping part, maybe we could exclude that." He smirks at her and sits upright and plays with her hair gently. Her hair was soft, even if it was still pretty matted. "You should probably get cleaned up," he smiles, "make yourself feel better."

 

[HappyBeingMe]

"You're so funny." She says, an unamused tone in her voice but a smile still stuck to her face. "Are you saying I'm dirty? Well, then." She jokes and stands up. She pulls Emery up with her and then jumps on his back. "Charge!" She demands pointing in the direction she wanted to go.

 

[buildingaspaceship]

Emery laughs before he begins to run in that direction, he spins around a few times to make her dizzy, before he runs into the warehouse and up the stairs. He jumps into the bed, landing on his stomach with Leela still on his back, laughing. "Maybe I was saying you were dirty, but then, so am I."
