It was midnight. Normally, on a Friday such as this, she would have already snuck out. Chloris never actually had a plan for sneaking out. She never went to clubs or parties or friends, she just went outside with her ferret in tow. Today, however, she was sitting on her bed, her feet pulled under her as she watched her twin sisters in front of the dresser while they gossiped and put lip gloss on.
She wasn't sure why they were doing this, since they weren't actually going anywhere. They had told her that it was a teenage girl tradition. Chloris felt highly inadequate in the way of the teenager. She tucked a black strand of hair behind her ear. She had decided that for tonight she'd be 'normal' Chloris, the Chloris she was before she figured out she could make her hair change with the proverbial snap of a finger. Black hair, dark brown eyes, pale skin, and light blue cloud pajamas.
Possum was snuggled on the edge of her bed, snoozing peacefully. She rubbed his back, and he sleepily rolled over for a tummy rub. She smiled, moving her hand away and earning a grumpy look from the ferret. She stuck her tongue out childishly, and looked up at her sisters, her tongue still hanging out slightly. Abeje was floating a little off the ground, and Bambi was looking towards the door with her head cocked.
"Chloris, have you met any guys lately?" Abeje asked, gliding to sit down next to her sister. Chloris coughed and sputtered, thinking automatically of that vampire that she couldn't get out of her stupid girlish mind. Bambi turned her attention away from the door, clapping her hands together. "That's a yes, Ab. Definite yes!"
The fifteen year old girl stared at her sisters, her mind still trying to feebly come up with a witty remark. Deciding not to dig a deeper hole, she merely continued to pet Possum as her sisters fawned over who could have 'stolen their little Chlory's heart'. Chloris was, for once in her life, relieved that a certain someone would never meet her family.

((LOL guess again baby! lol))
Kolton had run from Amber's place, pain ripping through him at her words. Without much thought to it he sniffed teh air and headed for Chloris. He didn't want to be alone tonight. Couldn't be alone or he may do something he'd regret.
KOlton knocked on the dorm door. Hearing voices on teh othe side. He knocked again, louder. more insistant.

Chloris checked her watch warily. Who the hell would be visiting at this time? She stared at the door, attempting to utilize her imaginary x-ray vision. At last she wearily stood, her bones clicking and popping from the sudden movement. "Probably because you two are being so loud," she chided her older sisters, sending a disapproving look their way.
Bambi smiled, shrugging innocently. She skipped past her sister, and opened the door. Seeing Kolton, her eyebrows raised, her cheeks tinged, and she giggled. "Hello." The girl said cheerfully. Abeje rolled her eyes, watching the stranger with her knees hugged against her chest. Possum ran up to him, rubbing against his leg.
Chloris took an automatic step backwards, gaze on the vampire. What was she supposed to do? She invite him in? Did she say, 'Kolton get the hell out of here these are my boy crazy sisters who read too much Twilight'? "Come in." She mumbled, rubbing the sleeve of her blue cloud pajamas awkwardly.

hey. he said to Chloris ignoring the giggling girl. He reached down as he stepped inside and picked up the ferret puttinghis on his shoulder as if it was teh most natural thing in teh world for him to do. Am I interrupting something? he asked glancing around at the othe rtwo girls then looked back to Chloris.

[Bambi - pheromone projection, enhanced reflexes & precognition
Abeje - gravitational rejection, empathic reception&projection.
Totally forgot to tell you that. Sorry. XD]
Chloris looked from her sisters to him, and smiled sheepishly. "No. They were just...being girls." Many questions were now formulating in her mind. Why was he here, how did he know where she lived, and perhaps the most important one of all - how was she going to explain this to her sisters? She watched as Possum chattered happily from Kolton's shoulder, resembling an oddly shaped parrot.
Bambi and Abeje stood back, observing their little sister. Bambi took a step forwards, smiling blithely at the stranger. "Bambi Achilleus, pleased to meet you." Abeje stepped forward, murmuring an introduction. She felt that she was here just to tackle the guy down if he tried anything funny with her baby sister. Together the two girls looked basically identical - the only way to tell them apart were their gifts and the fact Abeje has a scar on her stomach from falling off a rock when she was younger.
The younger girl rubbed her neck awkwardly. "You okay, Mr Garner?"

Kolton rose a brow at Bambiand Abeje. Kolton. nice meeting you. he said and turned back to Chloris. Chloris. I told you not to call me that. We had an agreement. You Call me Kolton, and I don't call you sweetheart. he said. He tried to shove away the emotional pain ripping through him. Seeing Chloris helped, that was for sure.

Chloris visibly winced. Sweetheart. He had to mention that in front of her sisters. Of all the things he could have said. She swallowed down her embarrassment, and crossed her arms. "That doesn't answer my question, Kolton." Her lips twitched into a smile, and she leaned back on her bed.
Abeje shifted uncomfortably. She knew that the man was not okay, and it was making her nervous. Would he take it out on their little sister? "Are you two dating or what?" She asked bluntly. Bambi perked an eyebrow, looking from Chloris to Kolton. They didn't seem like a couple.
If Chloris could squeeze herself into a tiny crack, she would. She stared at her two sisters, shaking her head. "No. No. Get out of here!" She pushed her sisters towards the door, muttering something about being rude and how Kolton was deathly allergic to too much estrogen.

Kolton waited til he and Chloris were alone before he spoke. No.. i'm not okay. Amber rejected me. Flat out tol dme to stay away form her or she'd kill me. She called my a blood thristy beast. he sank down onto the bed and pu his face in his hands. I've really messed things up Chloris. And i can't fix it this time.

Chloris mulled over his words. She was trying to find something comforting to say out of the depths of her soul, but all that was coming out was how she really didn't care because Amber was a bit- not a nice person. She walked over the vampire, patting his back awkwardly.
What was she supposed to say when she knew that this was her fault? "Perhaps she was in shock and in a fever. She didn't seem very well when we spoke. It was like she was sick." She reflected, although she knew that this most likely wasn't the case. She had gone on her anti-vampire shbeil multiple times. Wait.. why did she describe him as a blood thirsty beast? Unless his eyes turned or he was creeping up on her or something.
She'd kill him? Chloris had half a mind to storm out of her dorms, find Amber's dorm in the University, and to stab the girl multiple times. She bit down her homicidal intent. "She may just need time to adjust... if she really loved you as much as she said she did." She wasn't sure since she had never had her brother leave her and then come back as a vampire.

KOlton shook his head. I don't know. She seemed so upset. I've never seen her like this... not since mom and dad died. he sighed and looked to Chloris. I'll understand if you say no... but.. I really don't want to be alone. Is there any chance I can stay here? the sun will be coming up soon... i'll leave as soon as night comes. I just don't want to be alone. his brown eyes pleaded her to say he could stay.

When he asked his question, her eyes flitted to the door her sisters were undoubtedly leaning their ears against. "I don't see why not." Chloris walked to the door quietly, opening it. Her sisters fell into the room, giggling sheepishly. "Kolton's staying here." She said, walking over to Abeje's bed. As uncomfortable as she was around the vampire, she sure as heck wasn't going to sleep in the same bed.
Abeje lifted herself up into the air. "You two and your sunlight. He has a skin condition, too?" She inquired, letting her feet touch the ground gently. "You're like vampires, you are." Abeje revealed her canines, drawing her arm across her face. "I'm here to suck your blood!" She mimicked a Transylvanian accent, and giggled softly. Bambi laughed, laying across her bed.
Chloris muttered a soft apology to Kolton. Her sisters could be such... dorks. "Those kind of vampires aren't real," she defended quietly, staring down at her nails intently. "Just.. in books... I think."

Kolton smiled crooekdly at her. She was so sweet and adorable. And she was defending him. and in movies. he added with a chuckle as he looked to the twins. Then he got up and walked over to Chloris and bent down to whisper to her. YOu don't have to give up your bed. I'm not afraid to sleep on the floor you know. he said and flashed her a charming sexy smile that could make any girl blush.

"Or in a coffin?" Chloris teased. She walked over to her bed, drawing her feet under her. She clenched her fists to refrain from blushing at his smile - how would that have looked in front of her sisters? She patted the space beside her, and Possum jumped from Kolton to Chloris.
Bambi tutted at Chloris' lack of hostess skills. "Kolton can sleep on my bed. It's about as hard as a coffin, so he'd feel right at home!" She said blithely, skipping over to Abeje's bed and laying down. "I shall sleep with Abeje! Even though she kicks and punches in her sleep." She pouted, covering herself up in the blanket.
"Such a giver." Chloris said dryly, rolling her eyes to Kolton. "She found a spider on her bed earlier this week so she's been sleeping on our beds." She shrugged, pointing to the unoccupied bed. "And if you see Mr Fuzker, don't step on him like Bambi tried to."

KOlton laughed heartily and jumped onto the empty bed, propping his arms behind his head and crossing his legs at the ankles as he lay there. Oh not a problem. I love spiders. I'll probably wake up with a new pet in teh morning. he half joked. He did like spiders. He liked to watch them, their actions. So like his own.. wait for the prey to come near and pounce. It was facinating.
Kolton turned his head to look at Chloris and he winked at her as he said, Too bad I left my tarantula at home, she would have loved to play with Abeje.

Both Abeje and Bambi shuddered and glared at the vampire. "Yeah, yeah, yeah. I wouldn't piss off two teenage girls with superpowers." Abeje smirked, sticking out her tongue playfully. Abeje didn't mind tarantulas, it was just the smaller spiders that freaked her out - mainly because she couldn't keep her eye on them as easily.
"I like the way spiders look. Some of them are very pretty," Bambi tilted her head, and giggled. "Pretty in a creepy ew kinda way? But I hate the way they feel and how they walk." What she was trying to say was that she could look at pictures of them and find them cute, but if she saw the same spider outside of the realms of photography, she would scream and have a panic attack. "Like Chloris' old spider! I liked the way it looked."
Chloris sent a vaguely angry stare at her sister. "The one your dog ate?" She asked, tapping her fingernails against her leg. "I'm going to sleep." She huffed, putting her blankets over her head, and scuttling under the pillows.
Bambi went a little pale as she shuddered. "If she has to ask for clarification, does that mean she had more than one?" The girl asked, a finger to her lips as she thought. "Eww, I'm never going home again." She sulked. "Anyway, Scrappy only ate it because the spider attacked him! Stupid mean old spider."
[My kitty ate one of my tarantulas. I was so sad. :'c]
