Training With The Twins

So here I am sitting with the twins eating. Well I'm eating as they both awkwardly stare at me.

After a while it gets uncomfortable. "Why are you staring at me?" I snapped.

Jake smirked and Jeremy rubbed his neck and looked away. "It's just...you haven't said anything after we told you that we're twins." Jeremy said.

If I weren't freaked out about them both being related, I might have drooled at how good he looked. Focus! Stop daydreaming cause he'll never like you back.

"So it's weird that you're twins cause you're exact opposites but its okay. It will take some getting used to but, its cool." I said.

I mentally danced when he smiled at me. He's so cute.

Jake rolled his eyes and reached for my food. I slapped his hand and glared at him.

"If we're all gonna stay here, we need rules. So that we don't invade our personal space and make each other uncomfortable." Jeremy said.

He's so smart. No wonder he's a prince. I was swooning mentally.

"Yeah, we should do that." I agreed immediately. Jake rolled his eyes as Jeremy went to grab a paper and pen.

"He's never gonna notice you, you know that right?" He asked. I knew that but it still hurt every time someone said that.

"Y-y-...yeah, I know. You don't have to rub it in." I said. I pushed my food away as I had lost appetite.

"Jeez, I was just helping. Don't go all offensive on me. It doesn't suit you. By the way your morning hair looks awful." He said.

That jerk!!

"Conceited, egotistical jerk" I snapped.

"Stupid." He replied. That annoyed me.

"Manwhore." I said.

"Stupid wet puppy."  Now I didn't even get why we were arguing. I was about to respond when Jeremy entered.

"So what's the first rule." He asked.

"No naked males or females running around here." I said.

Jeremy nodded and wrote it down.

Jake smirked. "No, promises. No barging into each others rooms without knocking." He said.

We agreed and wrote it down. "No parties without asking all of us." Jeremy said.

"Like I'll agree. I'm a guy and I have needs. How do you expect me to get laid if I don't throw parties at my house." He asked.

I gave him a disgusted look and he just rolled his eyes. "Well you can have it when we agree." Jeremy said.

"Okay, Tar, let's go. I have to train you so you don't kill anyone at school." He said.

I frowned at him. I couldn't even hurt a spider and that's saying a lot cause I'm terrified of them so how coup I kill a fellow human.

Stupid Jake. Always assuming stuff.

"I could train her." Jeremy said. I was about to agree but I shut up. The twins were in an intense staring competition. It was so silent that you could hear a pin drop.

"Guys you can both train me. Just split up whatever you're teaching me into two." I said.

They finally broke the staring contest. They both seemed annoyed. They looked so adorable. Ugh, when did I think Jake was adorable.

"I'll teach you how to feed and fight. Jeremy can teach you the rest now come on." He said as he left the tabled and walked upstairs.

I followed him and we reached his room. "Should I get clothes for you?" He asked with a smirk on his face.

At first I was confused until I remembered the first time he had picked my clothes for me. He took me to my first club.

I almost got molested by horny fourteen year old boys. I shook my head.

"No, thanks. I don't want to get molested by my supposed preys." I said and rushed into the bathroom.

I changed into black jeans, a red top and black leather jeans after bathing with my powers. It reminded me that I needed to get clothes.

I left in Jake's car without seeing Jeremy. He drove to a forest. I looked at him confused as we got out of the car.

"I know you won't be happy drinking from humans so I'll teach you to hunt animals. You'll feel less guilty." He said.

I realized he was right. I couldn't drink from humans. But just because I'm drinking from animals doesn't mean I'll do it often.

And it's good because I've never felt craving for blood. Well, until that moment with Jake. I blushed as I remembered what happened.

The feel of his fangs... His lips...his roaming hands... I cleared my thoughts as I saw him watching me with a smirk on his face.

"What?" I asked. His smirk grew eider and I felt like hitting him.

"Well, ever since I drank your blood, I have been able to hear your thoughts. I can also speak in your head."

I gasped as he said that. My face heated with embarrassment. He heard it all. The smirk on his face said it all.

We walked into the woods before I noticed the bow and arrow in his hand. I was going to learn archery.

We practiced me shooting arrows at any tree he chose and I had it one out of five tries... Who am I kidding? I tried about fifty times before I hit one.

Jake had been laughing at me so much so a out of irritation I shot an arrow thinking it was Jake's face and what do you know it worked.

Although he laughed at me and called me stupid names it was fun. I caught a rabbit. It was white and I felt bad drinking from it so I gave it to Jake.

I couldn't. I am so stupid. What will I eat now. I'm not craving blood but I am hungry. It's okay you can feed from me. Is that okay? Jake asked in my head and I jumped.

He laughed ad I fell flat on my face on the muddy ground. He had been speaking in my head for a while and I should get used to it but it still scared me a bit.

I could speak to Jake mentally but he had blocked hi mind so I couldn't read his thoughts. I tried to block my mind but he said it would take a millennium before I would get it right.

He said it would stay like this forever. The mental link. I asked him why and he just shrugged it off so I dropped it. He'll tell me when he's comfortable.

The ride back was silent as I ignored Jake and he kept laughing because I had fallen down.

What a jerk!!

I heard that!

I jumped and he laughed more. I stopped caring and waited to go home. After all the next DAT I would be with Jeremy.

We got home and Jake showed me my room because and I quote 'I can't stay in the same room with your stinky ass. I am royalty and you're stupid'  He's such a jerk.

Fighting with Jake was weird. He kept touching me and my skin would heat up. Like when he was showing me moves and he touche my waist, arms and shoulders.

I don't know what's happening to me. I can't keep feeling like this. As I slept that night, I realized that despite him being a jerk I had fun.

Goodnight Jake  I spoke to him mentally.

Goodnight, Tar He replied. I slept peacefully without nightmares of my parents death. I had locked that memory away. I couldn't dwell in the past.

A week later...

I had been training with the twins for a week now. They said they were on summer break and that school would start next week.

But I wanted it to start today. What was happening to me?

Instead of being happy with Jeremy during training, I found myself thinking of Jake and waiting for my next lesson with him.

I guess I was going insane. I find myself constantly thinking about Jake. I smile everything I think of him.

He took me shopping for clothes and he actually chose decent clothes. It was fun when he put on a straight dress and heels. He fell down after two steps and I laughed like a pig.

Jeremy took me to buy books, pens, pencils and stuff for school. I bought a lot of empty notebooks which I was going to fill with my stories.

I loved reading and I was obsessed with books but I wanted to write my own stories. 

After he took me to get ice cream and all I could think about was when Jake and I made cookies. They were so hard and awful. After that we stuck to sandwiches.

Jeremy was the only one who could cook. In that week I learnt a lot. And that Jake had really changed.

I guess training with the twins was weird but all in all it was fun.

I still dreaded the day I would have to go to school. I never for in anywhere and I'm sure me changing species and becoming an orphan won't change who I am.

I am still the same ugly, stupid, socially awkward and weak Tara, a disgrace to my family name.

That night I woke up with nightmares of my parents death. I cried till morning. I really was the same weak old Tara.

Training with the twins didn't change that much. On the inside I would always be weak.
