I Got My Heart Broken By A Vampire


I'm Ciara. Average name and a average life. I go to Sage High, am a good student, and am in four sports. I had a pretty normal life until I met him.


Chapter One


I was sitting in second period examining my nails when I heard Rashari's phone vibrate. Basically that means we are getting a report to see what is going on with our school. Yeah I was popular along with most of my friends but I wasn't a jerk about it. Her eyes widened and I could tell it was something good. She smiled and looked over at me and mouthed, Cute new black boy coming to our class. I rolled my eyes. That’s all anyone thought about now. I mean I know there was a dance coming but jeesh. I went back to my nails thinking about how I was gonna spike the ball for the volleyball game after school. I was so absorbed in how we were gonna win I didn't even here the new kid come in. I heard a gasp come from the whole class and I whirl around thinking something is wrong. I didn't see anyone so I looked in front of the class to see what was going on.
I see a broad back facing me and curly brown hair. Then I see Miss. Brown immediately put on a seductive smile and lean over to point where he could sit. "Rashari raise your hand." she said in a deep seductive voice. I was drinking water at the time and I almost spit it out at the girl in front of me because I was going to bust up laughing. I cough trying to cover up my laugh thinking how hilarious this is. He walked to the desk behind Rashari he murmured hi to her and then figured out what we were doing. I glance at Rashari also, and I see her straighten her posture and fix her hair. I chuckled to myself once more and glanced over to see what he looked like.
I'm not gonna lie he was very hot. He had a caramel skin color, hazel eyes, dimples, curly hair, he definitely had muscle, straight nose, strong jaw, and he looked about 6'6" which was weird considering he was a junior. I looked back at my nails thinking okay he was definitely hot. I didn't know there was such thing as god like status when it comes to being cute. Anyway I return to the volleyball game thinking about my winning spike once again. I daydreamed the rest of the period considering I already know the material until the bell rings.
I get up eagerly to get out of this boring class and head off to P.E so I can stretch my legs. I put my things in my locker to later find out the empty one next to mine belongs to the new kid. I put my books in my locker and close it while looking for Tajenna so we could walk. I catch her strange at the new kid intensely. I don't know why but it was like a mixture of fear and attraction. She walks up to me and pulls me away from my locker super fast as we hurry down the hallway to the gym.
"What’s wrong?" I say surprised
"That guy he feels weird." She says frightened.
"You didn't even touch him." I suddenly remember her thinking she is some special force beyond humans.
"Are your special senses telling you something," I tease jokingly.
"I don't know it must be me being crazy."
"Yeah we all know you're crazy." I tease.
She smiles and walks on to P.E forgetting everything but I didn't. What did she mean weird feel? I always make her think I don't believe her with the supernatural things. A lot of weird things she says turn out to be true and happen within the week. I always believed she was supernatural and for some reason this creeped me out even more than the other things. I didn't even hear the thirty second bell ring. We ran to the gym locker room and started getting dressed.
I sat down on my assigned number and waited for instruction. We had to run the mile. Yes! I love the mile because I get to run. I ran with Tajenna us getting our done in seven minutes and seven seconds. Since we finished early we were allowed to use the private showers. We did and got dressed and watched other people run their mile. She made small talk about our volleyball game but I could see something was wrong.
"Enough with the stupid small talk. What’s bothering you?" I demanded.
"Nothing."
"If you don't tell me I am gonna tell Jay you like him."
"You know you are very demanding. But anyway that new guy he seems dangerous."
"By your magical senses or just looking at him."
"By my senses."
"You know I've always believed you with the sense thing?"
"Oh I know."
"What! How?"
"I can see right through it."
I grunted thinking I was pretty good at covering it up. Well when they let the other girls in we went our separate ways for classes. I was wondering the hall having just a little bit of silence before they hall way was crowded. I wandered my way to the locker and sat against it thinking about college when the bell rang. I got up to get my books when I heard loud obnoxious jocks making their way down the hall.
"What’s up baby?" Christian said.
"Go away." I say seeing my abusive ex.
"Don't be like that. Come take a walk with me."
Before I said something really vulgar he grabbed my hand and started yanking me forward. I started struggling when suddenly his bone crushing grip wasn't there anymore. It was the new guy who grabs his hand and threw it off of me.
"I'm not gonna make a scene about how a popular kid gets beat up by the new one but if you ever grab a girl like that in your life I promise I will cause you so much pain mentally and physically you'll think about suicide now get out of here."
"What the hell man you don't know what’s coming for you."
Christian got up and left and I could see the evil wheels turning in his eyes.
"He is right you know. He will cause hell for you here." I tell him.
"I can handle it. Trust me."
"Well thanks for that I'm sick of him."
"Anytime," he said dimpling when he smiled.
I hurry off to class thinking about how cruel the new kid’s threat was to Christian. The bell rang and I forgot about everything well sort of. I daydreamed in class thinking about how freaked Tajenna was and how dangerous the new kid sounded. I suddenly wanted school and even the volleyball game to be over. The lunch bell rings and I hurry off to class to find my friends. I catch the new kid sitting with all of our friends. He was talking to Blake, Jaelin, and Jomari. I saw Tajenna sitting as far as possible away from our friends. Everyone was so absorbed in the new kid it was outrageously crazy. I got some food and went to go sit with Tajenna.
I was walking up to the benches when I saw her massaging her temples.
"What’s wrong?" I ask concerned.
“Definitely something weird about the new kid I walked by him and all I could feel was darkness. It was terrifying."
"Well you know Christian was dragging me off with him and new kid-"
"Jamain his name is Jamain," she interrupted.
"Well Jamain took Christian’s hands off me so fast and threatened him but it was a horrible blood chilling type threat."
I glance back and see him suddenly rigid. I shuddered Jamain was very intimidating. I look back at Tajenna and she was starting to cry except blood was coming from her eyes. She was crying blood.
"Get up." I say.
"Why?" she asks startled.
"Put your hood on."
She complied.
"Get up, look down, and walk to the bathroom I'll be there in thirty seconds."
She did as I told and walked quickly to the restroom. I waited exactly thirty seconds and then went in. I grab a wet paper towel and start wiping off the blood.
"Am I crying-,” She starts to say.
"Shh there are other people in here and this will not go around school. Now calm down and start taking deep breaths." I interrupt quickly.
She took in a few deep breaths and the blood stopped. I wiped the blood completely from her face washed my hands and then we returned calmly to the cafeteria. We stayed silent for the rest of the cafeteria time. I had suddenly lost my appetite.


Chapter Two


The bell rang and we murmured goodbye still shaken up. I was shaken up and confused when it came to the game. We exchanged a glance during the game knowing we were gonna have to talk about this later. We won but it didn't feel the same like any other game. We changed and went off our separate ways. Thankfully it’s Friday and then we have a week off for Thanksgiving. I took a shower and told her she could stay here as long as she wants. This basically meant the whole break. She said she would be there around nine o'clock so I thought maybe we could lighten the mood with girly stuff.
I got in my car and went to the store. I saw Jamain walking outside and a whole bunch of Christian's followers behind. I was getting ready to shout a warning but before I could they all jumped him. That wasn't what really happened though. Jamain had knocked at least everyone out. He looked around to see if anyone saw not noticing me and then all of a sudden vanished. Not just run off but vanish like he was there he looked like he was getting ready to run and then poof he was gone.
I gasped out loud terrified by the sight. I try to put it out of my head until Tajenna comes over. I slowly walked into Stater Brothers thinking to myself Jamain isn't human. He couldn't be. No way a human can take off like that. I was walking down with my cart scared stiff picking out chips, ice cream, cookies, soda, and other fatty foods. I noticed I had gotten to of the same chips and turned around to put it back when I ran smack into somebody's hard chest. I stumbled a little and then back up to apologize when I see who it is.
"Sorry Jamain," I say.
"It’s all good Ciara."
"So what’s up," I said feeling rude if
