Chapter 4
“Clubbing?” “Yeah Jacqueline invited me.” “Well I am not too sure about this Veronica.” “Come on mother, I am 18 I think I can handle it.” “It is true Matilda she is growing up,” my dad come up behind her and placed his hand on her shoulder, “and just imagine honey she may be able to find her type there.” “You may have a point there Martin, but what if she finds her type and she still isn’t a full vampire?” “Mother you don’t have to worry, it will happen. Now I am going to get ready now.” I walked up the stairs to my room. When you go clubbing what the heck are you suppose to wear? I looked into my closet, and tried to find something to wear. “Here.” Next thing you know I have a dress in my face. I pulled it down and saw Olivia in my doorway. “Why are you giving this to me?” “Because, if you find your type then you won’t be such a misfit.” “Gee I don’t know whether to be happy or insulted.” “Just take the dress.” “Thanks.” I looked down at the dress: it was a purplish grey with noodle straps and was about knee length. I have to find my type soon… I need to make my parents proud of me.
I got ready and looked at the clock. 7:56 Ok so she will be here any minute. I looked over to my mirror that was in the corner of the room, “I have to find that person…” Oh crap, I looked at the mirror closer and realized that the dress that was knee length on my sister only reached my thigh. Well that is great I knew I was taller than my sister but not that much taller. I don’t know if I can go like this, “Veronica your friend is here.” I heard a voice say down the stairs, but it wasn’t a voice I hear often… CRAP! I ran down the stairs to see my brother kissing Jacqueline’s hand. “Hi Jacqueline I see you met my brother Zachery and now we must go.” I grabbed her hand and lead her out the door. “Well now you met the womanizer of the family.” “What? Him? He seemed so nice.” “Ha don’t let his charm fool you.” “Ha ok I won’t. By the way your dress is awesome!” “What? Oh this, it is my sister’s. You don’t think it is a bit short?” “Oh no of course not, I mean just look at mine.” I did, her dress was a blue dress that wrapped around her neck and cut off at mid-thigh. “I guess your right.” So where are we going to go? I mean I know I few places but never been to them.” “I asked around from some people I met in the area when I went shopping for this dress and they said to go to the one in the next town over, it has a pink and purple cat on the front.” “Oh you mean the Cheshire Cat?” “Yeah that is the place.” “Ok, I have an idea of where that is at.” I walked over to the driveway and opened the garage. As the garage went up I had totally forgot what else was in the garage besides my car.
“Uh Veronica why is they a coffin in your garage?” “Oh that it is a… a Halloween decoration that never went back to storage.” “Oh ok, I guess that makes sense then.” Phew I am glad she believed that, I forgot that grandmother was sealed in there. “Hey why is it bolted down?” I looked over as she was about to touch it. “Hey um lets get going ok?” “Oh ok.” I now remember the reason for it being bolted, it is because the last time grandmother woke up she wasn’t happy to find my father married to my mother, in fact she had her witch friend turn mother into a toad. After my grandmother went back to sleep my mother bolted it shut so she couldn’t get out. I guess even us vampires don’t get along with the in-laws, although I don’t think father has every met mother’s parents. “Wow you have a nice car Veronica.” “What? Oh that thing, I guess it is ok.” “Veronica it is a freaking Hummer!” “Well I guess it is cool, I don’t use it much since I walk almost everywhere. So are you ready then?” “Yeah, sure lets go!” “Ok, here we go then.”
