High School

"Sorry, give me a minute," he says as he answers his phone, his brother begins to shout down the line at him.


"I swear to God Emery Kadence Nile if you do not come home right now your punishment is only going to get worse!"


Emery rolled his eyes and hung up, shoving his phone back into his pocket, spotting his driver just down the street. How did they always know where he was? He turns to look at Leela. "I'm really sorry, but my father needs me at home right now. I can give you a lift to the school, though, if you like?"
 
"Oh, no. It's fine I can walk." She says, and gives him a nod before walking off towards the school. She turns around for a second and waves, then turns back around and starts running. When she gets there she bends over with her hands on her knees and pants. She didn't even know why she started running, maybe she just felt like it. She shrugs and gets on her bike, and puts on her helmet.
 
Emery walks towards his driver, gets in the car and slams the door, his face clearly showing anger. They drive all the way back to his house in silence as usual, and he walks inside escorted by Moira, when he gets there, his mother, father, and brother are in the large hall, waiting for him. He slumps his bag in a heap on the floor, and stands with his arms crossed, his face expressionless once again.
 
When Leela gets home she smiles at her dad who was watching TV. "Hey dad." She says and kisses his cheek. "Hey, I got your text. I hope you don't mind that I started without you." He says and smiles up at her. "Oh, you know what, dad? I'm kinda tired, I think I'll just be going to bed." She says, it was still early but she just wanted to think for a while.
 
"What is that God awful smell?" His mother sniffs the air, causing the family to all look at her funny, then sniff as well. His father narrows his eyes at him, "why can I smell a werewolf, Emery?"


Emery shrugs his shoulders, going with the typical teenager response. His father wrinkles his nose in disgust, "Shower and then meet me in my study, we have things to discuss, young man."


Emery nods, and walks up the stairs, he opens the door to his room and slams it, going into his en suit and showering, taking his time.
 
Leela goes into her room and lays down on the floor. She was too lazy to climb into her bed, so she just lay there staring up at the ceiling. She takes a deep breath, but she couldn't let it out. "Ugh." She says, smelling that horrid smell, then she laughs. She stands up and walks into the bathroom. She then hops into the shower, and washes the smell from her body.
 
Emery finishes showering, gets out, pulls on a pair of sweatpants and a black tshirt, before he walks down to his fathers study. He walks in, his father sat at his desk, who gestures him to take a seat. Emery does as told, sitting in front of his father, and leaning back in his chair.


"It has come to my attention, that you killed one of the blood givers in the basement this morning." His father states, resting his hands on his desk. Emery nods, "I did."


"You can't be so careless Emery. Killing when you feed is a danger to us all, and especially killing a blood giver. Now, another girl will have to go missing to take her place, or our blood supplies will have to decrease." He states, and Emery shrugs his shoulders.


The shouting and lecturing goes on for a while, before he lets Emery go, but he announces his punishment just as he's about to leave. "You are not allowed to drink blood in school anymore." It may seem like a pointless, yet dangerous task, but Emerys world came crashing down, as he walked upstairs calmly, shut his door, and then started freaking out. Hitting his wall, throwing things across his room.
 
Leela gets back in her room and tugs her bathrobe tighter around her. She yawns loudly and pulls on another oversized shirt and a pair of shorts. She lays down on her bed and turns on the radio on her side table. She sings along to a couple of songs before her dad comes crashing into the room. She jumps up fast and looks at him. "What?" She asks and her father's face was furious. "I was just in the bathroom. I smelled something strange so I rooted around for a while." He says and Leela nods. "Why did I smell leech on your clothes?" He asks, trying to stay calm but he was failing. "Um." Leela says, trying to think of an explanation. "Why?!" Her father screams, making Leela flinch. She knew she had to calm him down or he'd phase right here in her room. "Dad, I went to the movies with Emery today. Emery Nile." She says and her father's eyes widen even more.


"How could you go anywhere with those people?" He asks, and he stomps closer to Leela. "Dad, I'm sorry." She says and her dad's already enlarged teeth start to get bigger. She backed up as far as she could towards the wall as her dad phased.
 
If Emery couldn't drink inside of school, he'd end up hurting someone, surely his father would have thought about that. What was he trying to teach him? Self control? He opened his mini fridge, seeing the red liquid in the fridge he opened one of the bottles, and drank it within a few seconds, throwing the bottle across the room. He hit the wall again, and put his back against it as he slid down it, his head in his hands. He didn't want to hurt anyone there.
 
Leela looks into the mirror, a long scratch along her face. She touches it, then flinches away. Tears filled her eyes and she wets a washcloth, then dabs at the scratch, the tears falling. Her father had run away right after he phased, and she hadn't seen him. She licks her hand, then gently wipes her saliva on her wound. "Ouch."
 
Emery didn't get called down for dinner, probably punishment for how he was acting recently, instead, he just had more of the blood from his fridge, sat down on his couch with a large blanket, and curled up in a ball while watching Saw 3. He dozed off though, half way through, but he jolted awake just as the end credits started playing. It was only around 10pm, and he stood up and stretched, walking over to his window. He wondered, what was Leela doing now? He grabbed his phone to text her, before realising he didn't have her number. He put his phone on charge and closed the curtains in his room before laying on his bed, staring up at the ceiling.
 
Leela lays back down in her bed and looks up at the ceiling. She was definitely not going to school the next day. What would people say when they saw that scar? She then sighs, the scar would still be there the next time she went to school. She turns her radio back on and If It Means A Lot To You by A Day To Remember starts playing. She sings along to it softly as she slowly begins to fall into a deep sleep.
 
Emery doesn't fall asleep for a while, just staring at his ceiling. Eventually he strips down to just his boxers, throwing his clothes in a heap on the floor. He drains another bottle, before laying back down in his bed. What if he ended up hurting someone? What if he hurt Leela? All these questions racing through his head, but he finally managed to doze off, his sleep filled with images of blood and guts, people dead on the floor of the school.
 
Leela wakes up at strictly six o'clock a.m. A quiet yawn emits from her mouth as she gets up and walks into the bathroom. What she sees in the mirror makes her jump, it did every month. She was there, but she had sideburns that reached her neck like a beard, her eyes were completely green, and her teeth were nearly fully grown. "God, I'm disgusting." She says to herself, it was a good thing this only lasted for a day because if it lasted longer Leela would miss more school. She looks at the place her father had scratched her and grimaced. It was red and puffy, she hoped it wasn't infected
 
Emery rolls out of bed the moment the sun comes up, having forgot to close his curtains. It didn't burn him or make him sparkle or anything, but it did make his room super light. He grumbled to himself and closed his curtains before walking into his bathroom and washing his face, and brushing his teeth. It was so early, he could hear the maids running around downstairs and the sound of breakfast cooking. He walked downstairs still in his boxers, and into the kitchen where Moira was sat reading the newspaper.
 
Leela walks out of the bathroom and into the living room, sniffing for her father. She couldn't find him, so she guessed he was still out there. She walks beck into her bedroom and changes into a pair of purple skinny jeans and a hoodie. She puts her hood up before she walks outside and looks around at the people in her neighborhood. It was still early, so the main people she saw were grownups going to work. She walks down the street with her head down, making sure nobody could see her. She was walking to the woods to see if she could find her father.
 
Moira looks up at him. "I've been made aware not to put blood in your bag from now on." She states, and turns the page. Emery nods at her, turning and opening the fridge, finding a raw piece of meat. He picks it up with his hands and walks towards the door. "Do you want it heating up, sir?" One of the cooks asks him, looking at the meat in his hands. Emery brings it up to his mouth and bites it while glaring at the cook, before walking away, chewing the raw meat.
 
When she gets to the woods she takes her hood down, then cups her hands around her mouth. "Dad?" She calls, walking around and sniffing. She could smell him, but it was a distance she would have to do some traveling if she wanted to find him before the moon came out. "Dad!" She calls again, walking deeper into the woods.
 
He walks upstairs and to his room, locking the door and taking numerous bites of the raw meat, sucking it dry. When he had finished, he walked over to his wardrobe and put on his grey skinny jeans and a black polo shirt, then went and styled his hair. He had half an hour before he would head to school, so he walked to the music room, his brother nowhere to be seen. The house was actually quiet, his parents and brother discussing something somewhere while his sisters slept. He walked to the piano, and ran his hands along the keys gently.
 
Finally she picked up his scent, and it was close. She starts running towards him, she was worried because he wasn't the only scent she smelled. She smelled blood, and a lot of it. Leela sighs when she finds him, it wasn't his own blood, but a deer's. She leaned down next to her father and pulled off her hoodie, leaving her in a black tank top. She puts it over his unclothed body and rubs his face, he was out like a light. He was also going through the changes of the full moon, with the beard and the teeth. Leela looks around and spots the deer carcass, there were flies buzzing around it and a hole in it's side where her father had dug into it. "You poor thing." She says, then bows her head for a moment, asking god to take this sacrifice.
 
He begins to play the piano, not so amazingly but better than most. It was his brother who had the real talent, it was always his brother. He looked at the clock, noticing it was time to leave for school, and he walked down the stairs with his hands in his back pockets and grabbed his bag, walking out of the house and to the car.
 
It seemed as if her father wasn't waking up anytime soon, so she stood up and walked away from him. She didn't need to worry, he'd be fine. She rakes her hair over her face and on her neck so that nobody could see her, and walked out of the woods. She headed towards her house, she needed to eat something.
 
Emery was driven to school, and once he got there he waited until his driver had left, before he turned around and began to walk away from the school. There was no way he was going inside there without a blood bottle, he didn't want to hurt anyone. He walked along the streets slowly, his earphones in, playing into his ears loudly.
 
Leela gets to her house and goes in. She leaves the door open so that she could get some air and rakes her hair out of her face. There usually weren't any snoopers in her neighborhood, so she didn't worry about it. She walks into the kitchen and opens the fridge, she grabs the egg carton and the package of bacon. She pours some cooking oil into a skillet before turning on the stove and cooking the entire package of bacon, then four eggs.
 
He walked far away from the school, blocking the sound of the world from his ears. Suddenly, a stench that had become too familiar filled his nostrils and he shuddered slightly. Werewolf. He looked up and sniffed the air again, not sure where it was coming from. He realised that today was the full moon, Leela would be transforming today. He turned in the direction of the smell, looking up at a house.
