   ♥ Vampire Hearts Part 6 ♥
"Hey!" a familiar voice said from behind her. She turned to see Koga. His face lit up when she turned around. She took in his appearance. He was wearing a shirt with the logo of the store on it and he had a name tag, signaling that he worked there. She played it cool in front of Andi, not sure whether he would care or not. Koga moved behind the counter and checked them out. She waved a little when they walked out the door. When they finally went back to the house Nari said bye and went up to her room. She took out the C.D.'s she'd gotten and riffled through them. In the middle she found a note in Koga’s handwriting. 'Nari, I want to show you something. I get off work at 8, meet me outside, ok? *Koga' She smiled to herself and popped a C.D. into her stereo. MCR came through the speakers and she was instantly lulling back to sleep. She hazily set her alarm before she dropped back into bed to sleep until 7:30. When she woke up she felt rested and relaxed.

She stretched and looked around at her room. She moved to her closet to find clean clothes. She pulled on black baggy guy shorts and a white long sleeve shirt that fit her well. She reapplied her makeup and did her hair. She then pulled on shoes and walked down stairs. She went into the kitchen and grabbed some cookies off of a tray. As she walked through the living room her aunt waved and said hi. "Where are you off to?" she asked. "To meet a friend." Nari said, her hand on the door knob. "Ah, well, have fun." her aunt replied and waved her out the door. She took the note out of her pocket. It said to meet him outside but she wanted to look around again.

When she reached the door someone was coming out and held the door for her. She thanked him and walked inside. Koga looked up and she smiled, then turned down an isle to look at music. She was looking at posters when around 5 minutes after 8 o'clock Koga walked up behind her. He lightly pressed against her and she shivered. He smelled wonderful and his body was warm against hers in the air conditioned store. She was looking up at the posters on the wall so he put his cheek next to hers and looked up too. A Goth guy down the isle stared at them. Nari blushed and pulled away slightly. It felt like the whole store was watching them. "What was it you wanted to show me?" she asked, taking the note out of her pocket.

orooreo looks like she kicked some guys ass!!! LMAO!!! naw, she just scratched her forhead . . .

russianllama gave some guy an eyeball bruise, not a black eye, an eyeball bruise . . .

so yeah . . . dan is an asshole . . . and so is matt . . . matt messaged me on myspace acussing me of trying to get with him while having a boyfriend (which i don't, haven't for a while) just so i can "hurt" him! the ass whipe!!! -russianllama, don't keep tickling me, i won't give you anymore oats( aka starburts )!!! orooreo can though! ^.^ -

i'll get russianllama to send me the myspace message since i can't get on my myspace since my mommies mean and restricted it.

dan i'm so freaking sick of him . . . he's being such an asshole to me. he started yelling at me through text because i was getting mad that he keeps blowing me off and acting like i'm nothing and that he doesn't care about me so i told him that and now he's not talking to me and frankly i don't need to add his shit to my drama!!!

so . . . me and alex . . . not so good . . . we kinda got into an argument in 3rd period . . . -digs toe of shoe into dirt and swirls it around sheepishly-

heres our angry note(which he smacked onto my desk really hard, i jumped):
alex - you need to talk to me. i'm not going to let our friendship go down the hole.
me - no need to get pissy, jeez!
alex - well, its not exactly like your acting normal either. im sick of you ignoring me.
me - I CAN'T HELP THAT YOU CHOOSE TO CALL ME SO FUCKING EARLY IN THE MORNING!
alex - then call me back.
me - no matter when i call you, YOU NEVER PICK UP!
alex - you never call me. i had my phone all week. i would have called you back.
me - so this whole thing is MY fault, huh?
alex - no, its mine too. but it just feels like you aren't trying to get this friendschip back together it feels like you don't care
me - you aren't helping either!
alex - i'm calling you. i'm leaving messages. i said i was sorry. you haven't done anything
me - you shouldn't have bitched me out for trying to HELP in the first place!
alex - i'm not going to play the blame game. alex, you don't understand where i was comming from.
me - YES I DO BUT YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO BITCH OUT YOUR BEST FRIEND
alex - and i said i was sorry!

our next one(we ran out of room on the small piece of paper):

me - just because you said sorry doesn't make anything you said to me right!
alex - well then this is your fault that we're not friends because thats all i can do. i don't think what i said was right either, but alex, what am i supposed to do? do you want me to grovel at your feet? this isn't fair
me - how the hell is it fair to me? your saying everything is my fault! this fight started because i tried TO HELP JAMES & TO HELP YOU! DON'T YOU FUCKING GET IT? HELOVES YOU & YOU DON'T CARE!
alex - alex, i love him too. i know he loves me but you need to know. i told him a millin times to stop cutting himself. he said he would, and then he would do it again. it urt me so bad when you said that you told him to stop and he said he would. it made me mad because i knew he would do it anyway. so i blew up at you. i'm sorry. its my fault too.

WHAT THE HELL? stupid stupid stupid gay boy drama!!! i HATE this so much . . . =''(

russianllama might get to give me a really cool emo hair cut and doing things to my hair when i'm upset always helps . . .

i think i shall beg billy to say thsuper tonight if he's working, i hope he is . . .

   ♥ Vampire Hearts Part 5 ♥
WARNING: contains blood, & kissing! now shut up and read! ^.^

Nari lightly bit the tip of her tongue until it bled. When he realized what she had done he did the same and their blood mixed again. They kissed and kissed, reopening their tongues for the feel of the blood in the kiss. Distantly she heard "NARIIIIIII!!!" She pulled away and cursed. Benaii was looking for her. "No…"she said lightly and pressed her forehead to Koga's chest. "It's ok, he won't find us here." Koga said. It was Saturday so they didn't need to go to school, but knowing "the five" they were going to try and get her to hang out with them and do all the crazy stuff they did. She wasn't sure how long she could get away with not spending time with them. "No, I'd better go. I'm sorry." she said and started to walk away. He followed her through the trees. "I'll walk you home." he said and walked behind her. When they got to the alley and were standing behind the house Nari didn't know what to do. "I'll see you later then…"she said and opened the gate. "Ok. Wait, which is your window?" he asked. Nari pointed to her window and he nodded. "Bye." he said as he walked silently away.

She climbed to her window and sank into bed. After a feeding like that she was always tired and usually slept. She kicked off her shoes and pulled the sheets around her. Ami came out from under the bed and jumped onto the bed next to her and softly purred. Nari was just about asleep when there was a light knock on the door. "Nari? Are you there?" she heard Andi softly ask. She groaned and sat up in bed. "Yes…what do you want?" she asked, putting her glasses back on. "Come hang out. It'll be fun. You haven't spent anytime with us since you got here. Besides, the girls are coming too." he said, leaning against the door. "What are you guys doing today?" she asked, petting Ami. "They haven't told me. They just sent me up here to get you." he said. Nari sighed. They knew she liked Andi best and they always sent him to try and get her. She'd accidentally scratched his face really good once, thinking that he was Benaii. Benaii had been following her around all day, trying to corner her and kiss her, pressing her into walls and blocking doorways. She opened the door slowly, trying to give him a warning not to fall over. He straightened up and she pulled him inside. She looked at his face and into his eyes. She could still see faint scars from her attack and grimaced. If another vampire harmed you, you would get faintly vivid scars but when harmed by a normal person it healed perfectly leaving only a bruise.

Sensing what she had looked at Andi hugged her. "It's ok…Benaii would have deserved it…" he said as he released her. After she'd accidentally attacked Andi she'd found Benaii and kicked the crap out of him for sending Andi when she was in such a furious mood. Her and her mother left for England shortly after that happened. "I'm still sorry…you didn't deserve that…I should have checked who it was before I attacked…"she said and lightly traced a scar across his nose. He hugged her again, a little harder than the last time. "It's ok. Besides the scars are kind of cool." Andi smiled. "Come on, they'll be waiting." he said. She pulled his hand back, over towards the window and he sat on her bed. "Lets do something today, just you and me. What do you say? I can't handle everyone at once, not yet." she pleaded, giving him a puppy pout. Andi laughed and nodded. "Sure." he said. "We'll have to go out your window then." He walked to her window and crawled onto the roof. She pulled on her high tops and crawled after him.

They lightly dropped to the ground and walked to the alley. Nari nervously looked into the alley while Andi looked back at the house. She didn’t see Koga but that didn’t mean he wasn't there. She walked into the alley. "What are we going to do today?" she asked as they walked. "There's a good music store a few blocks away if you want to go." Andi said, turning around to look at her. Nari nodded. When they reached the store he held the door open for her. When Nari was inside she looked around. No one was behind the counter, but there was a small number of punk boys walking around, looking at C.D.'s. A few looked up when she walked in. One nudged his friend next to him and they both stared at her. Andi headed down an isle of C.D.'s and she followed. They looked around, showing each other music that they liked and most of the time agreed with each other. They were in an argument about Korn when they finally walked up to the counter with a few C.D.'s each. Andi didn't particularly like Korn but Nari did.

alrighti! simpleplanluver, this is for you since you love it sooooo much! ^.^ plus the last one was uber short! warning: scenes contain biting, blood, & kissing. SOOOOOO!!! SUCK IT UP!!!

"Exactly. You know what I am, I know what you are." he said. Nari stayed silent, intent on never looking up again. She heard him move the swing and saw his feet right in front of hers. "You hesitated last night. Why?" he asked, softly moving her chin back up. She kept her eyes down, staying silent. "I've got all night and day, so we'll just stand here until you say something." he said softly. She closed her eyes and breathed in deeply. She held her breath then slowly let it out. "Because...I don't take blood from people I know..."she said quietly. "You needed it bad, didn't you?" he asked softly.

A tear spilled down her cheek and she nodded. She pulled her head away from his hand and turned around, wiping the tear away. She hated it when she did this. "You took mine and I took yours." he said, still standing behind her. "A cut for a cut." he said, and walked around to face her. She knew he was admitting that it hadn't been her fangs that scratched her tongue. She looked at the ground still, not sure why she couldn't look at him other than her body wanted more of his blood and she didn't trust herself. "You didn't take much last night, you know?" he said leaning down so that he looked up at her. "I'm not taking anymore of your blood from you." she said and looked up to avoid his eyes.

"Your not taking, I'm offering." Koga said simply, straightening up to his full height. "I don't care if you bite me, but lets lay off on kissing for blood for a little while, though that was a good way..." "...no...we can't...I can't...my family will kill me...if they...catch me...with..." she said, dropping off at the end. "With someone from the Sianali clan. But I'm not technically Sianali, I'm Sianaci. You're the only one outside of our clan that knows that." he replied, finishing her sentence. Nari kept staring up, trying to figure all of this out. She'd never told anyone that she was a vampire before, and no one had ever guessed. "I couldn't..." she said and finally looked at his face, but not at his eyes.

She knew he'd probably make her head fog again and then she would definitely bite him. "Yes...you can...come here..." he said and pulled her to the bench to a sitting position on his lap just like last night. "No..." she said, turning away from his neck, though she was so tempted. "It's ok. You're not going to hurt me. I've had worse than a bite happen to me before." he said and pulled her closer to his body. She rested her head on his right shoulder. After a few minutes she softly whispered "I'm sorry..." and finally bit him. She'd never bitten anyone not under her spell but she knew that it would hurt more. She heard him moan then he grew silent, his right hand on her back and his left on her right leg. She had her right hand on the other side of his neck and her left hand on his chest.

His blood tasted as sweet as it had last night. She was afraid to drink, afraid she would hurt him. But when she tried to pull away about thirty seconds after biting him he held her there, which told her that he was fine. She drank his blood and bit a little harder, causing him to moan again and lightly grip her leg and pull her closer to him. A little while after that she let go of his neck and rested her head on his shoulder. She wanted to kiss him again, wanted to stay on his lap, wanted him to keep is hand on her back. He panted a little and reached his left hand up and felt the tiny punctures from her teeth.

"Small fangs." he said, looking at her. She smiled a little, letting her fangs show slightly. He smiled, showing larger and sharper fangs. Nari touched the tip of one and her finger started to bleed a little. She sucked on her finger until it healed. When she looked at Koga's neck all that was left were two small bruises. "You've got a strong bite." he said, looking into her eyes. She looked somewhere else. "You can look at me. Those grey eyes are fine." he said, causing her to blush. Nari looked into his eyes. Her head didn't fog and she didn't have an uncontrollable urge to kiss him, not yet. "I'm sorry. Did I bite too hard? I didn't mean to..." she said, ashamed that she might have. "No, it's ok. I've never actually been bitten before. Yours was..." he didn't finish, his eyes told it all. He had loved her biting him, he was aroused by it. He cleared his throat. "Have you ever bitten another vampire before?" he asked. Nari shook her head. "I've never had vampire blood besides my own." she said quietly. She looked into his eyes and accidentally started to put him under a spell. She immediately broke eye contact when she realized she was doing it. "I'm sorry...I didn't mean to...it was an accident..." she said, feeling like she would cry.

"It's ok." he said and kissed her. She pulled away and looked at him. "I thought you said we weren't doing this..." she said, though she wanted to kiss him again so badly. "If you don't want to we won't..." he replied. Barely after the words left his mouth she kissed him hard. She liked being up close to him. His smell was sweet and his lips were sweet, everything about him seemed sweet. He slowly pulled away. "It's getting light, people will be coming here soon." he said and went to the trees at the back of the park were they were thickest. He leaned against a tree and looked at her. She slowly walked over to him. "We can't do this...if anyone finds out..." she said and looked at her hands. "Yes we can...no one will..." he said and pulled her close, kissing her on the lips. It moved rapidly into a French kiss and Koga had his arms around her back, holding her up against him.

Just then the P.A. system turned on. "Kogano Sianaci, please come to the office right away." Nari's mind registered the possible connection to one of the clans and froze. Koga looked at her then at the door then back at her. Slowly he walked out of the class room. Nari didn't stop at her locker, just ran straight to the house and went to her room. She wrote down the clan names and different variations that could be used. Sianaci could very well be from Sianali. She started to wonder if he really was a vampire. She thought about it for hours until she fell asleep at 11. When her alarm went off at midnight she reset it for 4. When it went off again she shyly peeked out her window and no lights were on. She jumped down and walked to the alley. She looked both ways to check and she didn't see Koga.

She walked cautiously to the park and sat on a swing, thinking. Ten minutes later someone gave her a light push from behind. She turned around to find Koga standing there. She dropped her feet to the ground and stood up, the swing lightly swinging back and forth between them. Koga moved closer, about to go around the swing but Nari stepped backwards a little and he stopped. They looked at each other, glancing quickly at each others eyes then looking away. Nari didn't trust herself, she could still taste his blood and she knew her body longed for more. "So, you've figured out my little secret, haven't you?" he asked and leaned on the swing. Nari didn't move or say anything. "I figured yours out last night, though I had a clue when I looked at your schedule. Now, tell me, what are we?" Nari looked down at the sand under her feet. "...two vampires in the night..." she said softly, still looking down.

ok, so i had this really SCARY dream last night!!! =(

ok, so! here's my dream:

me and dan lived accross the street from each other and one night he texted me and asked me to go outside around midnight but my mom wouldn't go to sleep until later! so i got out there and he was crawling back down from his roof thingi to his room and he couldn't hear me when i called his name.

we moved at the same time and ended up living next door to each other. it was great! one night i snuck out and spent the whole night with him, just sleeping together(no kinkiness)

then i moved again. he came to my house and we hung out. i asked him what i ment to him but he didn't answer. for some reason we were outside at one time and i was running away from him for some reason. i slipped because it was icy and snowing and i slipped into a river and reached out for dan who eventually pulled me out while others watched. i had to go to my room and to change because i was soaked. dan followed me and i turned around when i felt he was there. he told me that i ment nothing to him and that he wanted nothing to do with me. he never wanted to talk to me again. i cut and then i died because i'd made it really count . . .

i woke up and cried! it scared me soooo much!!! so i texted dan a million times asking him to please just tell me that i didn't mean nothing to him! he wrote back and said that i didn't mean nothing. i was so relieved but then he stopped talking to me . . . again . . .

so i texted this to him:
and as always i guess i'll just talk to you in a week or so . . . since yet again you've decided to drop off the face of the earth and not talk to me just like you always do . . . i wonder what would happen if i just never wrote back . . . would you even notice?

   ♥ Vampire Hearts Part 2 ♥
Nari moved over to a bench and Koga followed her. It was working, he was hooked. She always tried not to make eye contact unless she could trust herself or until she was going to feed. Slowly she made eye contact with Koga. She was suddenly drawn into his dark green eyes. Her head felt like a slight fog and she shook her head trying to clear it. This had never happened before. They made eye contact again and Nari moved closer at the same time as Koga. Suddenly she leaned in and kissed him hard, holding onto his neck. Koga moved her onto his lap. Nari bit his lip and they started to make out intensely. One of her fangs nicked his tongue and he pulled back slightly but when she made eye contact with him again he kissed her again. One of her fangs must have nicked her tongue as well because she felt a sharp prick and her blood mixed with his. The blood didn't seem to bother him, making her really think that he was a vampire, but at that moment she didn't care.

His blood tasted so sweet that nothing mattered. The cuts on their tongues healed quickly and the blood stopped, but the kissing didn't for a few minutes. Nari didn't notice there was no more blood in their mouths until she suddenly pulled away. She stood up and ran into the trees lining the park. She leaned against a tree and breathed deeply, trying to calm down. She wiped her mouth and found barely any blood. She'd never gotten blood that way, but she liked it. Koga came into the trees slowly, looking around. "Nari¡¦" he said softly, but she stayed behind the tree, holding her breath, resisting the urge to go back and do it all again.

He had to be a vampire, he healed so fast, just liker her and all the vampires she knew except the older ones, he didn't sleep much, he didn't mind the blood, it all made sense but she didn't want it to. She'd never tasted vampire blood besides her own, and his was so sweet. She'd only kissed a few of the guys she'd taken blood from, but it had never been like that. She wondered if he'd done that just for the blood or for some other reason¡¦She heard him walk out of the trees and she sank to the ground. Was he a vampire? She wasn't sure and she was scared. She'd never really liked a vampire before, all the ones she'd meet in England had just wanted sex and drugs so she'd stayed away. She'd never trusted herself around normal guys either so she was confused. She used her attractiveness to get blood but that had just been to get the blood, not necessarily because she wanted to be with them.

When she figured he was gone she slowly walked back to the house. She jumped and landed near her window, then crawled inside. She lay on her bed and thought and thought, trying to convince herself that he wasn't a vampire, he just couldn't be. And if he was one, what if he was in a rival clan? She would have to ask "the five" how many there were in town, if any, and how many clans there were here. Miraculously she slept for a few hours and woke at dawn. She dressed in a black long sleeve shirt, red and black checkered pants and high tops. Her makeup was the usual black and she put gel in her hair and styled it. Then she went downstairs to the kitchen where she found Andi, who she'd always liked best of "the five", reading a book at the table. He was quiet and wasn't always hovering around her and annoying her. She went to a cabinet and got a mug out, ruffling his hair as she went by.

He looked up from his book and smiled at her. "Good morning." he said shyly. She made herself some tea and casually asked about the clans around town. The clan her family belonged to was the Nalacoca tribe. Her mom had given her a last name that was rooted from the original clan family name but not exactly the same for safety. They had a lot of rivals in England and she wanted to keep Nari safe. That was why Nari had been sent to the states to live with the clan, things had started heating up and her mom didn't want Nari in danger. Their were 5 other clans in town, though two were very small. They had 2 rival clans, the Sianali's and the Heathreling's. Mostly everybody stayed where they were supposed to and there were only a few fights every now and then. Nari talked to Andi until the rest of "the five" woke up and started to come down stairs. Janei gave her a friendly hug from behind.

"So, did you feed last night, Nari? We did, we cornered these girls in an alley, scared the crap out of them, I think a few wet their pants." Kodono said and sat down next to Nari. She moved her chair away and grimaced. "My feeding habits are none of your business." she replied, then stood up and rinsed out her mug in the sink. Benaii grabbed her waist from behind and nipped her ear with a fang. She turned around and slapped him hard across the cheek, causing all of the guys in the room to go "ooooooooooooooooooh!!!" She went to her room and grabbed her back-pack then walked down the stairs and out the front door. She took the long way to school and got there half an hour before school would start. She leaned against her locker and finished her book. The punk kid with the green Mohawk came to his locker and stared at her the whole time. She shuddered when he finally walked away.

She avoided everyone all day, keeping to herself and avoiding "the five", looking for and sort of hiding from Koga. She reached Ms. Daney's room before him and nervously slid into her seat. She pulled out a new book and started to read. She didn't notice when Koga came in and silently slid into the seat next to her. A little while after the bell rang he slid a piece of paper onto her desk. 'Nari?' She ignored the piece of paper and kept reading, resisting the temptation to ask him if he was a vampire and all the things running through her head. He wrote again and she slightly looked over. 'Please? Remember, two vampires in the night¡¯s what we are.' she finally took a pen from her pocket. 'vampires don't exist...' 'are you sure? have you ever met one?' '...' ' can we talk? please?' 'I thought that¡¯s what this is.' 'I mean face to face, with our voices, I need to ask you an important question.' The bell rang and Nari stood up, pulling her back-pack over her shoulders.
