My Stranger - Remi Johnson (novels for teenagers .TXT) 📗

I heard Cherie's cries as she begged them to stop it.
Love you, Cherie

, I thought to her, looking over at her. Let Jessi live and tell her Aunty Jean says hi.

She sobbed harder and breathed out and 'Okay'.
I looked over to Felix, who looked like a man about to burn in hell, his ruby red eyes were throbbing with such fierce emotions, I felt like crying.
"Love you Felix, even though I just met you, I know we belong together." I choked out the words and suddenly I felt really tired.
The hands that were choking me began to shake then suddenly I was dropped like a sack of potatoes.
My first instinct was to breath in fresh air. My second instinct was to check my neck which was still in pain.
"I can't do it masters, I can't" I heard Felix say. Cherie crawled over to me and hugged me tightly.
"Never would I guess that Felix would betray us, masters, I guess thats why you aren't wearing the more darker cloaks to show your so called loyalty to us." Jane twinkled. She pooped out of nowhere.
It was true, Felix wore a lighter cloak then the ones who were decked out in the darkest black.
"He hasn't betrayed you," I choke out. My voice was raspy and was similar to a chain smoker.
"In fact, I see it as an opposite, you betrayed him. You knew he was in pain when he had to kill me but you all looked on like the sadistic freaks you are." I continued.
Felix was in front of me an instant, and suddenly I felt myself floating only to find out that I was in the arm's of Felix. Cherie was around his arm, wrapped like a monkey. She looked daze and confused.
And we were zooming sown the hallway.
"Mark!" She screamed, snapping out of her daze.
"He's dead, I'm sorry." Felix said bluntly, looking like he wasn't sorry at all.
Cherie looked at me, surprise leaking over her face. I nodding feeling remorse over my best guy friend.
Cherie just kept looking at me, tragic as ever, slow tears ran down her face and I felt really bad.
Mark was dead, the one who always hugged me when he saw me, now I would get bare hugs. The one who always tickled me when I got mad, the tickles would not be right because no one knows my secret tickle spot. The one who sang badly to the corny radio songs and made us all laugh, now wee would no longer hear the off-key tones of his voice.
Mark was dead but in replace of Mark was Felix, who may not be able to do all those things but so much more.
Because I guess, in my life, a new love always come with a new death.

4. A dark road trip

Cherie soft breathing came from the back seat of her car. I turned around and saw her curled up in a ball from the cool air that was coming from outside.
"Hey," I said, softly tapping Felix's shoulders." Can you put the hood up, she's getting cold."
Felix looked straight ahead as her pressed the button that lifted the hood up.
I leaned back and sighed. He was being so emotionless since we left the Volturi. I stared out the window, trying to make out the earthly scenery that was whizzing by us.
"Felix? Why are you so mad at me?" I said, playing with the hem of my top.
There was a deathly silence and a soft sigh before Felix said, "Why didn't you tell me you were a damphir?" He asked, looking at me.
"Felix, you have to understand we just met, I'm not jst going to blurt out that im a witch vampire." I stated, rolling my eyes.
"So.. what your saying is your going to kiss a complete stranger, that you know is a vampire?" He said, looking back at the road."
I giggled and slid closer to him, resting my head on his shoulder, "Yeah, but not just any stranger, my stranger." I said, kissing his cheek.
"Whose your stranger?" He said, teasingly. I almost melted as he grinned at me.
"Hmm..." I pondered teasingly, my pointer finger on my chin. He laughed and nudged my shoulders. It made a slight crash that similar to a kid bumper car crash.
"Oh jeez! I'm sorry are you okay?" He asked.
I shrugged it did not hurt at all. "Yeah, baby," I said, "You can never hurt me, Im half vampire."
There was comforting quietness before I said finally:
"Your my stranger."
He grinned and pulled the car over to a deli near the road.
He pulled me on his lap and I grinned.
"Wanna recap, Mr.?" I asked, laughing.
"Hell Yeah," he claimed. I pulled him towards me in a passionate kiss. His tongue probed at my lips, I opened them invitingly.
His hands trailed down my waist and I grinned against his cold lips.
"What The Hell is going on??!!!" Cherie's voice came piercing through our intense make-out session.
I jumped from his lap and back into my seat.
"I'm- Imma go to the store, anybody coming?" Felix asked, his voice was squeaky.
Cherie looked at me and nodded. "Yeah, I'm gonna watch you guys to make sure you dont have sex in the store." She said, glaring at Felix. I blushed.
That's Cherie for you.
