The classes start in a week but the school has been accepting the studens to stay here for all the summer. I came here two weeks ago. Then I met Chloe. As I said, she is my roomate. We share a dorm. There is the main room for girls and the one for boys. There is also a huge place where students can rest. I've learnt all these from the internet when I decided to get in here. I always do my research before chosing new school.
A. J. Martelli Institute is a really expensive and elitistic school. Rich kids from all the country come here every year. A. J. is the intials for Alfred James Martelli. I had met that man when he was still a baby. I used to know his mother Clarice. She had helped me once find what I needed. Powerfull woman. She wasn't afraid of vampires, or me. Her son founded the Institute but then he was killed in a car acident. I was expecting kids there to be arrogant and stupid but I don't care. I wanted to see the Institute.
Every dorm has a different color. Ours is olive green. There are two similar beds in each corner and a little table in the middle. I am glad there are a lot of windows in our dorm. I like watching outside. Only first generation vampires have a problem with the sun light. I don't. I also don't have a problem with eating normal food. I don't really eat it. When it goes in my stomack there are acids that completely destroy it as it is a foreign substunce. And this is it. Like I never ate. But I really need at least on bottle of blood every week. At least one.
I was talking abou the rooms. when I came here Chloe was on vacation and came back four days later. She had the sane dorm for the ast three years and it was already decorated by her. When I say decorated I mean Orlando Bloom. She loves the man. There are posters of him in every part in the room. I don't really like him. He is not my taste.
*****************************************
"More and more people get back from vacation but I see no new guys. My dear lord why not? Why???" Mabel sounds desperate when it comes to boys. She is really cute. Long blonde hair and beautiful black eyes. Both of them. She can't find someone new to piss of her old boyfriend Harry. He is on the soccer team. Real hottie. They broke up before vacation. Chloe tried to infrom me about everyone here. I may take advantage of some of these information later.
"Mabel, not now, not today. Please I have a terrible headache. I can't stand all this." Jamie comlains while she is grabbing a toast. She has aterrible mood through the whole breakfast. In the Institute there are different rooms for breakfast and dinner.
Mabel used to be Chloe's roomate for the previous years. Last year they moved her with Jamiel. That is how they know each other. Mabel is still Chloe's best friend. We someties change dorms and I sleep with Jamie.
"Goodmorning!" Chloe just came in the room. "Thanks for not waking me up Ivy. I really needed that sleep."
"Don't worry. Here have some apple juice." Chloe takes the glass of juice and sits next to me in the wooden chair.
"Where are the Stewarts and Tom?" asks Chloe while she is trying to chose between marmalade and honey. I know the Stewarts and Tom really sound like a boy band. Well that is what I thought when I first heard of them. The Stewarts are two brothers. Leo and John. They are born in the same year but they are not twins. Leo is born In February and John the last day of December. How cool is that? Tom is their best friend. The three of them are on the 10th grade. Mabel and Jamie are in the 11th like Chloe and me.
"So? Where are they." Again none of us answers.
"They haven't came back from trip to Germany." Finally Mabel talks.
"What? Yet? I thought they were coming back one week ago."
"Well... Germany has nice girls." Mabel winked to Chloe.
"Pennsylavnia has cute girls too. I mean they have to meat Ivy." Chloe huggs me and brings the toast in my mouth. I avoid it.
"No Ivy, trust, me you don't lose anything. Well Tom is ok and John Stewart too, but Leo is still short and you know... a child."
"No, Mabel they are not that bad" Jamie gets in the conversation "at least Tommy is cute."
"Ha! I knew it you like him. You like Tom. I knew it!" Mabel stands up and do a crazy dance.
"Ivy?" I turn to jamie that looks worried.
"What?"
"Your arm" I look at my left hand. i didn't realise it was shaking. A lot. Fuck!. The withrawal syndrom soudn't start so fast. I hide my hand under the table. "It's nothing" I smile and go to my dorm. I ran.
Blood is like drugs. But more. Not every blood, but human blood. It gives me amazing powers. I can do anything but if I don't drink AT LEAST one bottle a week then I have a problem. Shaking hands. Blood vometing. Hair loss. Scars all over my skin. It is horrible. I needed blood soon. Now!
I opene my closet and open my box. Under the bottels I have something else. Pills. They are chemical pills. They can replace human blood really well but only for twelve hours. There are only six left. Fuck! What can I do now. i can't just walk in the school with my fangs and kill everyone but if I don't do something really soon I will not be able to control myself. I have to take one of the pills. Then they will be only five but I need one. Not want, NEED!
I can't have the pill like that. I need to drink it with alcohol. It works only like this. These pills are made of a great doctor a century before. He died before teaching me how to make my own. He gave me 15 pils. Only 15.
Now I must find alcohol somewhere. Boy's room! Yes Ivy, great idea. It is fun to call me Ivy. It sounds weird. Anyway I have to harry up now!
I get out the girls room. My hands are both shaking right now. Hopefully the boy's room is next to girl's. Now I just have to nock. It is difficult. My hands are numb. I can't even fill the pill that I am holding.
"Hey! Why don't you nock. Are you shy or something?" I turn to see two guys. They must be seniors. The one who talked is taller and with a bit long dark hair like Johny Depp. But his face is too round for that hair. The other one is blonde with an arrogant smile.
"You need something honey?" Now the blonde one talked. Well maybe if I play it silly cute girl, I'll have what I need.
"Well hi! I'm Ivy. I'm new here and I think I am lost this place is huge." So let's try puppy eyes and playing with hair. I forgot my shaking hands and my pill just fell of my hand. They saw it and I saw them pushing each other and smiling.
"We will help you." The tall one talks. "I'm Henry and this is Jim" Jim smiles. As I said stupid, sexy, arrogant smile." are you looking for anyone?" Am I? Yes!
"Exactly! Can I trust you?"
"Yes, of course" They both answer laughing.
"I was suppose to meet someone but I think he regreted it. The asshole didn't show up. I mean he had to. He promised and he owed me."
"What do you mean?" Jim is curious. That is good.
"Alcohol." I said quietly.
"At 11 am?" Now Jim is confused. Boys are stupid and I have to take that pill now.
"We would have it for tonight?" Jim looks around carefully.
"Well Ivy we can help you, but you must invite us to that litte party"he winks.
"But of course! Both of you!" Now smile Ivy! Yes!
They take me in the boy's room. The dorms are upstair like girls room. It is like ours but a bit smaller. Well it has one more balcony. Henry stays with me.
"Can I ask you something Ivy? What exactly is that pill you have? Are there going to be more of them tonight?" Henry looks excited. He thinks I would have drugs so obvious. Boys every century get stupider.
"Of course not silly" Big smile Ivy! " That is not what you think it is just period. You know girl stuff. It helps with the pain and the headaches."
"Oh..." At that moment Jim comes with a bag and a bottle.
"Sorry this only what I could find. Some guys started asking why I needed the alcohol and I would to give explanation. But I will bring tomorrow more!" He gives me the bag with the bottle and smile. I get out.
"Tonight? No guys. Tonight it will be only girls. Another night... sure!" I left really fast.
I get in my dorm and lock, close the curtains and put the music on. Justin Bieber, not my cup of tea. I turn to Hose Feliciano and turn on the volume. Sometimes when I take these pills I scream.
I open the bottle take the pill and drink all of the alcohol. Vodka. Well I prefer whiskey. I sit on my bed. Some minutes later my whole body is numb and hurts. Tonigh I must find blood. Real blood.
