perked up a bit
“Yeah sure.” Jordan said slowly.
This is always what happened, one minute she was up, and then she was down. Jordan knew that he would have to keep comforting her, telling her Chloe’s going to be ok, and that she will come back. He believed it himself, but doubt nudged at him sometimes. He was surprised; however, that Chloe had not called him yet. They had always been so close.
His phone vibrated in his pocket; he pulled it out, and it was Elizabeth. Morning handsome, that’s fine, I look forward to it! Xxx . Jordan smiled to himself; he could not wait to see her and hated himself for thinking that, but there was something about her, more than meets the eye. He perked up and decided he did not care if she was a vampire, she didn’t look like she could kill anyone.
He decided that he would confront her about it. Just ask her if she is a vampire straight out. He would have to wait until the right time though.
“Mum, I’m not feeling too good. Can you ring the college and tell them I’m not coming in?” He looked at her and held his stomach.
“What’s wrong?” She did not look convinced .
“It’s just a stomach ache; where I’ve been really stress” He held on tighter, her expression softened.
“Of course, go and lie down for a while. I will ring them now.” She picked up the phone and started dialing.
“Thanks mum,”
Jordan grabbed the bacon sandwich she had made off the worktop, and ate it slowly. He had not been eating properly lately, and it felt so good to finally eat a decent meal.
He walked upstairs to his room and got ready; he put in some hair putty and swept his hair back effortlessly. He needed to see her again, to make sure he was not wrong about her. Jordan ran down the stairs.
“I’m going for a walk; I need to clear my head!”
He said loudly. He did not wait for a reply and walked out the door. He pulled his phone out of his pocket and text Elizabeth . On my way over, missed you! Xx Jordan headed towards her house, kicking a random football that lay in the middle of the path on the way. He rang Chloe’s phone again, praying for an answer, but got through to her voicemail. He left a final message.
“Chloe, its Jordan, please ring me when you get this. You know I’m not going to say anything to mum, but I’m starting to worry now, all right. Love you sis.”
He hung up the phone and sighed, her phone was still ringing, so she’s bound to be ok. Elizabeth text back Ok, see you soon xx
CHAPTER EIGHT
Jordan walked up Elizabeth’s drive, if you can call it a drive, and knocked on her door. She answered quickly, swinging open the door.
“Hey,” she said excitedly, stepping out on to the step. Jordan stepped forward, closing in on her.
“Hey, are you ok?” He said smiling, he always felt so much better when he was around her.
She was just so bubbly, fun and full of life.
“Come in then.” She said grinning. He walked through the hallway and nodded to Cecile. She flashed him a sweet smile back. He followed Elizabeth into the living room.
“Sorry for coming up unannounced, I just wanted to see you.” He said nervously, he scratched his finger with his nail and bit down on his lip.
“It’s ok, I like it when your here” She smiled sweetly.
He grabbed Elizabeth by her waist and pulled her in closer, looking into her eyes, smiling. She smiled back at him, showing off her pearly white teeth.
“You’re so beautiful.” Jordan said charmingly and softly kissed her cheek.
“You’re not too bad yourself.” She said, failing to sound sexy like she wanted, but sounded sweet and soft instead.
Oh god, I think I like him a bit, she thought. She bit her lip; Elizabeth didn’t want to like him, but couldn’t help it. She loved being in this moment and didn’t want it to end yet. She just wanted to enjoy it right now and deal with the consequences later.
“Let’s go
