Jennie's POV
"So she's the one huh?" Shana asked me while grinning and wiggling her eyebrows.
"Yes, she's the one I saw in my vision." Chaeyoung happily replied while clapping her hands.
"But she's a woman, are you sure she's the one?" Jisoo asked, still unable to believe Chaeyoung's insistence.
"Are you doubting my skill Jisoo Singh?!"
"N-no babe, I'm just saying that she's actually a woman, not to mention, Jennie is a fucking straight, how can she marry a woman?"
"Don't worry, as far as I remember, Lisa likes girls." Sana said with a shrug.
"It's good for her, but how about Jennie? Do you think Jennie will let the King to marry her with a woman?"
"What the hell Jisoo? Do you also think that the King hadn't thought about it first before sending us here?" Chaeyoung answered with little annoyance on her girlfriend. "If you are really against on this plan, you can directly ask the King to stop whatever sorcery he's trying to do." She added as she stood up on her seat.
"Wh-what? Do you want me to die?" Jisoo asked panicking and tugged Chaeyoung's sleeve to pulled her back. "I'm not against, it's just that I'm worried about our friend." She said and looked at me.
"Wow, just wow, I thought you girls forgot that I am actually here in this table." I said sarcastically as I uncrossed my arms.
"Sorry." The three of them apologize sheepishly.
"Don't jump into conclusion Chaeyoung, we're not really sure if she's the one, you might forget about it, your premonition weren't that clear as 20/20 vision so we aren't really sure if that nerd is the one that my father is talking about." I said and shut my eyes off, pressing my fingers on my temple because of having a little headache.
"Aish, how many times do I have to repeat myself just for you to believe me that I'm sure as hell that the person I saw in my vision was the one we saw in underground." Chaeyoung said frustratingly.
"And you're saying that the person in underground and that nerd are the same person?" Jisoo asked in disbelief, Sana laughed softly, as if she was tickled and we looked at her. "What's funny Mizaki?"
"Girls, she just wears glasses and you can't recognize her? Contact lenses exist for a reason, you wear it too and if I'm not mistaken, Lisa wore them whenever she's out of school."
"How'd you know her that much?" I asked.
"I'm a mortal before remember? And just like what I've said earlier, those two are my childhood friend." She said while giggling.
Right, Sana was a mortal, before Dad saved her ass from dying in a car accident that happens in Japan 2 years ago. The King wants her to lived like the way she used to be, even if Sana insisted that she belongs to the vampires kingdom, my Dad refused to, and ordered Shana to go home, but he reminds Sana not to tell a word about her, being a vampire.
After another two years, The King asked me to find my husband here and she asked Sana to help us to have a place to stay and she asked my two stupid best friend to come with me, Jisoo and Chaeyoung.
They have their own ability that's why the King sends me with them. Jisoo's power is she's fast, as in fast like a lightning, she's the fastest vampire in our kingdom. Chaeyoung's power is she can see the future, not that clear but still, she knows what will happen in the near future and for Sana's power after becoming a vampire is she's a healer.
And me? I'm the strongest vampire and I'm the King's heiress. I moved fast, smell any scents with my keen nose, can hear everyone thought and I can charm everyone even my own species except the King, I can get everything I want but not this time. Fuck! Not this time!
When the King talked to me about this person that he wants me to marry, I couldn't do anything but to obey him because my charms won't work on him, why? Because he's my Dad and I got the charm powers on him so he knows how to deflect it.
He never told me that the person he wants for me is a fucking woman, and a nerd? Really? She's the least I expect from the person I've imagine! I already saw her that night when Chaeyoung told me that the person she saw in her vision were inside the underground but I didn't believe her, I admit that I can't keep my eyes off of her that night, especially when I heard them talking about us. I even got frustrated because they doubted our dancing ability because of those seven boys? Those stupid vampires! They should've thank me coz' I don't usually suck blood from anyone, especially if they're not my type.
"But girls, don't you notice something on that Lisa and her friend?" Jisoo asked, causing me to snapped out from my dazed.
"Yeah right. They seemed to be in a relationship." Chaeyoung said and Sana suddenly laughed out loud. "You laugh a lot, are you on drugs?"
"Among us, you can see the future, but you have the gut to say those presumption?"
"That's all I noticed, especially when Sydney held Lisa's hand." Chaeyoung reasoned while pouting.
"Nah, they don't have that romantic relationship, they're best of friends and Sydney just helping Lisa to relax for having anxiety attack after the professor called her name." Sana explained. "And what is Jisoo talking about was Lisa's smell."
"That's right, babe. Her blood scent, haven't you noticed? It's as if she's preventing her own smell to linger, and with that Sydney, I can smell something on her." Jisoo pointed out and Chaeyoung looked at her confusedly.
"I didn't know? Or maybe I just didn't notice."
"Yeah, to be honest, that's why I'm having this little headache, I can't smell her blood, I can't even put her under my hypnotism." I admits and Sana quickly patted my head and the headache vanished just like that, I forgot that Sana can heal when she pat you at your head. "Thank you." I mumbles, she nods and smiles at me before continuing to dig her food.
"So now what? What are we gon' do with that Lisa girl?" Jisoo asked when no one dared to speak again.
"Let's just stay here for a meantime to make sure she's the one." I said and they all nod their heads in agreement.
After we had eaten, we returned to our room for the last two subjects. When we got to the room, Lisa and Sydney were already there, Shana greeted them first and talked briefly until our professor arrived, All afternoon, I was just staring at Lisa and I didn't even take my eyes off of her, I noticed her uneasiness on her seat so I couldn't stop lifting the edge of my lip to formed a smirk.
She can really feel the gaze I'm giving to her, I thought she was just so mischievous that she had to moved around in her chair. Until the whole class was over, I was still looking at her, nor did I ever listen to our professors, as if I give a fuck about it, I'm living for almost hundred years and I already know all of the things they spouting from the back of my palm.
"Jen let's go." Chaeyoung said as she made sure first that there weren't any remaining students in the classroom. We all stood up from our seat and within a second we are already in Mizaki's. We are vampires, walking is not our thing.
"Why don't we buy a car next time? It's getting boring when we come to school and head home straight." Sana commented when we all stepped inside their house.
"That's a great idea! I want to experience driving an actual car!" Jisoo beams and clings to her girlfriend's arm. "I want to drive for you Chaeng."
Chaeyoung looked down at her and creased her brows. "The last time you drove is you accidentally hit some shit at the road and you sucked their bloods when they started cussing you out."
We laughed when we remembered what happened one year ago. Jisoo borrowed one of the King's car and she accidentally bumped another car and when those human cussed the hell out of her, she fumes in anger and starts sucking their blood, she was eventually punished, she accepted one hundred whips on her back.
"Don't remind me about that, the pain almost killed me, I almost died that time and all you did was to cry for a whole week." Jisoo snorts and crossed her arms.
"Who wouldn't? My girlfriend is having a punishment while I'm eating good food."
"That is why I'm mad, you still have the appetite to eat in front of me while I'm facing that punishment."
"That's enough, let's have snack." Sana chants and she goes inside their kitchen first. "Hi Uncle!" She greeted their chef.
He looked on our way and smiled. "You're home, wait, I'll prepare you a snack."
"Thank you, by the way Uncle, these are my friends, Jennie,Jisoo and Chaeyoung." Sana introduced us, we shook his hands for a respect, even though we are spoiled brats we still know how to respect old people, although we're much older than him because we're vampires and lived hundred years.
"Nice to meet you girls, I'm Marco Mcklein, the Mizaki's chef, please just wait for a while as I prepare for the food." He said before returning to the kitchen.
"Mcklein?" I asked as I heard his last name familiar.
"Yes, he's Lisa's Dad." Sana said and walked out of the kitchen and sat on a long couch in the living room.
"I can smell his blood, he's a mortal, why her daughter is not?" Jisoo asked as she sat down next to Sana.
"Of course he's just Lisa's step dad." Sana snort as she crossed her legs and rest her back.
"She's right, maybe Lisa's mom is one of our kind?" Chaeyoung asked.
"I don't know, I haven't seen her since I came back, I heard that she's sick." Sana answered and shrugged her shoulders.
"After all, the King wouldn't have chosen Lisa if she were not like us." Chaeyoung said which made me frowns again.
"Even if we can't smell her, that doesn't mean she's the one Chaeng, she's a woman, and there's no way in hell I will marry a woman." I said and rolled my eyes.
"Yeah Jen, disobey the King and we'll see what will happen to you." She said mockingly.
I groans and pulled my hair frustratingly. Actually, I would be glad to obey the King, which is my Dad, but marrying a woman? Is he seriously fucking kidding me? I'm a fucking straight and never in my life would want to marry a woman and worst is she's a nerd, with anxiety and she moves a lot on her seat! Well, that's partly my fault, but still, she's a she, a woman, a girl with doe eyes and plump lips and has a good body proportion for a nerd! Wait- did I just praised her? Oh my God! That ain't it!
"Ok Jen, do you happen forgot that we can hear your thought if you're frustrated? Uhm.." I snapped my head at Sana and looked at her confusedly. She motions her fingers around them and point herself at the end. "We are vampires." She said, smiling hesitantly.
"Urgh fuck this shit! I don't know what I'm going to do!" I said as I sulk even more on the couch and lean my head on the headrest.
"You know what Jen? I have a good suggestion." We all looked at Jisoo and raised our brows accusingly. "Ok, nevermind. I don't have any suggestion." She said defeatedly and crossed her arms abruptly.
"Why don't you find a boyfriend, I mean, a real boyfriend. A vampire, like us and introduce him to the King."
"What makes you think that it's a good idea Chaeng?" I asked and lean back my head on the couch.
"Who knows? If the King finds out that you have a boyfriend, he'll stop us to look for the one." She said with a shrug and I quickly looked at her, the smile break out and I snap my finger.
"You're right Chaeng! Oh my God, that is one of a hell good idea!"
"You stole it from me, aren't you?" Jisoo asked on her girlfriend.
"Yeah." Chaeyoung admits and laugh obnoxiously. Perks of a vampire who can see premonitions. "Anyways, so what are we going to do with the one?"
"Stop calling her like that, she have a name and it's Lisa." Sana scoffed and rolled her eyes.
"Ok, so what are we going to do with Lisa? Happy?" I asked mockingly.
"Yeah, very." Sana answered sarcastically before heaving herself from the couch. "I'm going to their house to visit her mom and to see what can I help."
"Wait! You mean you're planning to heal Lisa's mom? Isn't it prohibited to our rules? She's not a vampire, you'll be punish if you did that!" Jisoo reminds panicky and grabbed Sana's hand just before she could take one step.
"Then I'll face it, Lisa is one of my childhood friend Chu, I don't want to see her suffers if her mom will die."
"But how about you?" I asked worriedly.
"If the King will know what I did, I'll face the punishment and after that, I will going to stay here."
"Are you fucking serious now, Mizaki?!" Chaeyoung asked loudly with her high pitch voice.
"Yeah, and besides, the King told me to live like I used to be, so yeah. I'm back and I want to stay here."
"But you're family is in Japan, Sana.."
"My Dad, yes. He's in Japan but my mom stays here alone unlike my Dad. Machan is with him." She says bitterly as her sister's name came out from her own mouth.
I looked at the two and we all nod our heads simultaneously, it's as if we understand what she's trying to say even without us, asking for her real reason why she wants to stay here.
"We're coming with you."
"To Mcklein's?" She asked and we all nod again. "Ok then, let's eat first." She said and made her way to the kitchen and we all followed her.
-
After we eat the tasteful snack, we head straight to Mcklein's. It's a two story house, enough for three person and with a wide backyard with full of plants and trees, there's a bench in the middle with a roof and an old lady in her fifties but she looks more older because of her illness, was sitting underneath.
"Hi Mrs. Mcklein!" Sana greets cheerfully, making the old lady to startled and whipped her head at us.
"Sana? Is that you?" She asked while trying to recognize Sana, walking at her enthusiastically.
"Yep! The one and only!"
"Oh dear! Come here, give your old lady a hug!" She orders and spread her arms and Sana obliges right away, engulfing Mrs. Mcklein into a tightest hug. "When did you came?"
"Last week, sorry if it takes a week before I came here."
"Oh sweetie, don't worry about that. Did Lisa and Sydney knows that you're already here?" Mrs. Mcklein asked after they both pulled away from the hug.
"Yeah, we are actually attending the same class."
"Why aren't they telling me that? Tsk! Those kids!" The old lady hisses before looking behind Sana to look at us. "Who are these beautiful young ladies?"
"Oh uhm, they are my friends, they also attending the same class with Lisa and Sydney." Sana said and signalled us to go near them. "This is Jisoo, Chaeyoung and Jennie, girls. This is Lisa's mom, aunt Lina."
"Hello ma'am, nice to meet you." We greets and shook her hand one by one.
"She's a mortal." Sana whispered not directly on us but we can still hear her because for the hundredth times I'm going to say this. We are vampires. "Where's Lisa anyway?"
"Oh, haven't she told you that she's working a part time job in a café along Hongdae?"
"Oh really? She never told me." Sana said in surprised.
"She must be very busy that she forgets to mention it, anyway. Do you want anything?"
"No thanks Auntie, we already ate at home. I came here to checked you because I heard that you're sick?"
The spark on the old lady's eyes vanished upon hearing Sana's question but she still forced herself to flashed her genuine smile. "Yeah, I have Acute Myeloid Leukemia."
What the hell? That was one of a rare cancer, how did she get that?!
Sana looked at me with her pleading eyes, it's as if she's asking for a permission to do her main plan why she went here. I nod my head reluctantly and she smiled at me before lifting her hand and was about to patted Mrs. Mcklein's head but Chaeyoung grabbed her hand.
"Wait Sana."
"What now Chaeng?"
"Don't do it, I s-saw on my v-vision that she's not going to heal but she'll get worst instead if you did that."
"Are you fucking kidding me?"
"No! Please d-don't!"
"Just listen to her Sana." Jisoo chime in and tapped Sana's shoulder.
"What's going on girls? Why are you talking only with your eyes?" We all snapped when Mrs. Mcklein's asked us. We almost forgot that she can see us looking to each other, she might finds it weirdly but for a vampires like us, it's normal for us to talk with only our thoughts.
"Oh, uhm. Don't mind-."
"You didn't saw anything." I mumbles as I stared on her eyes and she slowly nods her head. "Let's go, we'll be back next time." I said and we all vanished within split second and went back to Mizaki's.
"Jen! Did you just put her under hypnotism?!" Sana asked in disbelief when we all sat down on the couch.
"I have no other choice ok? She saw us like that, why don't we try to have a normal conversation like normal humans so they wouldn't notice that we're vampires!" I said frustratingly as I huffed an annoyed sigh.
"Chaeyoung started it!" Sana exclaimed.
"What do you want me to do? Do you want me to voice it out so she will hear us?" Chaeyoung asks raggedly.
"Why did you stop me in the first place?" Sana asked again even if Chaeyoung already told her the reason earlier.
"I told you, it's not safe." Chaeyoung answered but I can see the hesitant behind her almonds orbs.
"Chaeyoung.." I called with warning tone and she sigh in defeated and her shoulder slumps down.
"Ok, I'm going to tell the truth. Lisa and her squad, they're about to fight underground just for the sake of her mom, and if you tried to heal her then..." She trails off before looking at me sheepishly. "Then the sweet moment of these two won't happen between them in underground." She finishes and I open my eyes widely and looked at her ludicrously.
"Chaeyoung Pristine!"
"I know Jen, I know. It's just that, I want to see it clearly with my own eyes not just a blurry vision." She said defensively.
I clenched my eyes and ran my fingers on my hair frustratingly before sighing exasperatedly. "Ok fine! I'm going to let that happen, but only, because I want you to be happy then after that, Sana will going to heal Lisa's mom. Okay?!"
"Yay! Thank you Jen!" Chaeyoung beams and engulfed me into a hug. I looked at Jisoo but she just shrugged her shoulders and chuckled on her girlfriend's crazy antics.
