Chapter 0121
“What do you want for supper?” Alec asked as he went to the bathroom.
“A wrap or sandwich. Whatever they have is fine. I’m not picky.”
“Okay.” Alec yelled from the bathroom before I heard the shower turn on. The door was open but I wasn’t sure if I should join him or not. In the end, I decided to open the balcony door and sit on one of the lounge chairs. After a minute, I got bored and wanted a book.
“Alec, I am going to the library to grab a book real quick!” I yelled into the bathroom.
“Okay. Come right back!” He said sternly.
“Yes, sir.” I said sarcastically but smiled at my little freedom, It was really only down the hall but still. Opening the bedroom door, I walked to the library and went inside. The smell of paper and ink is one I will never get tired of. Grabbing one, I took it and went back to the bedroom. Alec was still in the shower so I went to the balcony and started reading.
“What are you reading?” Alec’s voice startled me as he sat down next to me. He was only wearing shorts.
“A Brief History of Time” by Stephen Hawking. “I guess you can call it an interest.”
“Space or how the universe works?” His comment surprised me.

“Have you read it before?”
“Yeah. I like how it all pieces together.”
“Me too. It’s crazy to think about how there is a whole different world up there. We are merely a speck in it.” Laying my head back, the sun was just below the treeline.
A knock sounded on the bedroom door. Alec got up and answered it. He came back with a cart of food Dinner is served.” Setting a plate of food down beside me on the little table, I put the book down and started eating.
“Thank you.”
“Yup.”
We ate in silence, just watching the sun finish setting and the stars popping out. The breeze was warm as
it tossed my hair around. “I arm going to shower quickly. Get some of this blood off me.”
“Okay.” Alec got up and pour himself a scotch as I went to the bathroom.
The water felt amazing on my skin, even though it burned a little where I got bit. That still pis ses me off that it even happened. It felt nice to have clean hair again. After drying myself off, I went to the closet and grabbed silk pajama shorts and a matching tank. Alec was still on the balcony sipping his drink so I grabbed my own and sat on my chair.
“Feel better?” He asked.
“I do.” The scotch burned as it went down.
“I had whiskey up there for you.”
“Thank you. This s hit is gross.” Shooting the rest back, I went back in and looked through the cabinets until I found the Jack Daniel’s Gentleman. Pouring myself a glass, I went back out and sat down. “So much better.”
“What color of dress do you have for prom?” Alec asked.
“Black.”
“Good.”
“Good?”
