Something new
“So you want to try it? I think it would be great to spend some time with you. Hunter is going to watch the game if he can find a TV.” Mom told with a huff, she really hated football.
“There is a TV in your room.” I told her rolling my eyes.
“I guess he didn’t see it, or he went out shopping again.” Mom wanted to stop the shopping.
“Mom leave him alone. He just likes to get good deals, though I think he might need a SA meeting.” I laughed but it was true, he didn't normally buy much for himself.
We both laughed about that and then went into the kitchen to see what we could figure out about the candy. I wasn’t really into the whole thing but hey my mom wanted to do it so here we where. I also knew mom wasn’t staying but a day or two. We happen to be laughing about something when Draven came into the room. Wearing a snug pair of jeans and a to die for T-shirt. I wanted to eat him up right then and there but I kept my hands and mouth to myself.
“How is it going ladies?” his voice made me shiver.
“We are thinking of going to the store to get some stuff for the chocolate. Did you want to come with us and see what we came up with? I know you are wanting to see what we did.” Mom spoke to him like he was family.
Plus I knew he wanted to babysit me and make sure I didn’t take a bite out of someone. It would be the first time I would go out and about. I didn’t know if I was really ready for that. I was almost shaking when he came over to me and hugged me close. I seen the shine in my mother’s eyes and knew that she thought we were a couple. I didn’t correct that little thought but I also didn’t help it grow either. I pulled away from him and looked at his amazing eyes and wondered if he could love me. I pushed the thought away and went back to my mom and gave her a hug. I’m not really sure why I wanted to be so close to her but I did. So sue me for wanting to touch my mom. In truth I wanted to rape Draven but I pushed that thought away too. I didn’t have time for such things right now.
“Do you want to go with us Draven?” I asked him smiling up at him.
“I would love to go with you two ladies.” I didn't think he would come with us to be honest.
We got our stuff and headed toward the front of the house to find my father sitting in front of the large TV in the office. It was blaring the game and I almost laughed at the look on his face.
“Dad we are going to hit the store. Want to come?” I called raising my voice so he could hear him.
I didn’t think that he would, but he was up and off the sofa in a moment. Giving me a grin and grabbing his coat. Dad hadn’t looked so old either the last time I had seen him. Like with my mother he had crow’s feet around his eyes and smile lines around his lips. He didn’t look really old, but I could tell that life had taken a toll on him. I wondered what had opened my mother’s eyes to the fact that my father had never stopped loving her. I shrugged it off and pulled on my jacket that was brand new, like all the stuff I had here. It really did make me sad to be away from my stuff. I sighed as we stepped out of the door and wondered if we would find a place to shop with it getting so late.
“Are any stores open this late?” He asked as we moved toward the door.
“There are a few open twenty-four hours up in this area. I’ll drive so no one gets lost.” Draven told them and I was thankful.
So off we went to the store and found ourselves at a twenty-four hour Wal-mart. It was nice to be out of the house, but the scents were driving me crazy. I was almost drooling from the scent of blood. I pulled myself together and followed my mother to the back of the store where the cooking stuff was. It would have been better to get this stuff at a candy shop. We would have to deal with what we could get at the moment and see how it turned out.
“Look a rose candy mold, which would be so cute for the candy. How about hearts?” Mom showed the mold to me.
I almost laughed at the thought, but then grabbed it and threw them into the cart. We grabbed Hershey bars for the chocolate. That was the best tasting any way, well we could have gotten the other stuff but we didn’t want to waste the really good stuff till we were sure it would work. So while we were here I wanted to grab a few things for myself. Shampoo, Cream rinse…And let me see thongs. I also needed a few more bras; Draven wasn’t so good at getting those. So with everything we needed we head back to the house. By the time we got there I wanted to scream for blood. The scents had driven me to the shakes and Draven had to drag me out of the store.
“Are you alright?” Draven could see the strain on her face.
“Hell no!” I yelled as we got in the car.
No one talked any more after that. We drove home in silence and I almost broke the door getting into the house. Once inside I grabbed a bag and drank it down not caring if my parents seen me or not. I sighed and felt myself come back under control. I smiled and threw the bag away, then helped my mother unpack the bags. It took us twenty minutes to unpakc the bags. Finding places for the stuff in the kitchen.
“Do you want to start this tonight? I am sure you two have been up longer than us.” I asked seeing the wear on her mother's face.
“That is true we have been up longer, I am sort of tired. Maybe a shower and a good night’s sleep and we can hit this when you get up in the evening. Good night my dear.” My mom hugged me giving me a kiss on the cheek.
