WISH'EM LUCK
I can't breathe. I'm going to pass out any second now and fall down those stairs, knocking every one of them on the way down like a bowling ball making a strike. Everyone is going to laugh at me and then I'll have proved my other Parents right. I'll have proven myself worthless...
I laughed nervously and gave the slightest of waves at the massive crowd below.
As if I wasn't nervous enough before…
“Hi?” I said nervously.
This seemed to rouse the shocked mob into loud cheers, wolf whistles, and obscene comments being thrown in Katherine's direction. Katherine blushed a deep Rose color, only adding to her newfound beauty making the crowd grow a little wilder.
It was with the greatest satisfaction that when she caught sight of Tyler that he was the only one still silent, and looking up at her as though in a trance.
Their eyes met for what seemed an eternity before Katherine took an almost involuntary step towards him. He seeme

KATHERINE MEETING THE PARENTS
He didn't have much of a chance to think about it because they were at the front door before he knew it, Katherine leaning down and lifting a small welcome mat, and picking up a key.Could these people be any less creative? he thought in disgust. At least hide it under a potted plant or something...It surprised him how much venom he had in his heart for Scott. Yet it wasn't surprising at all if one really thought about it. They had mistreated her. And he was falling for her. Fast.So he hated them. So what as long as they didn't hate him?Katherine unlocked the door and stepped inside, motioning Tyler to do the same. Once he was inside, she quietly shut and relocked the door."Mom! Dad! I'm home!" Katherine shouted.Tyler shivered as he thought of Katherine calling a place like this home. It had to be the most frigid place he had ever been in. Everything was pale and plain it seemed. Colorless, lifeless -a little dead even.Even the
KATHERINE CROSSING 'THE KING'
AUTHOR'S POV"The dress is lovely," Mrs. Scott said emotionlessly. "Where did you get it?"Katherine seemed to glow just a little at that comment."There's a really great dress shop in Merytonburg. The girls took me shopping there and I found this""You picked it out?" Mrs. Scott said, not even having the decency to try and hide her surprise at Katherine's newly discovered taste in clothes."It looks expensive. Who paid for it?" Mr. Scott asked suspiciously.Katherine's glow seemed to dim just a bit."It was a gift from Gise- Principal Kingsley -sort of a bonus, I guess."The Scott exchanged a look that clearly spoke of their hate for Giselle. Tyler wanted nothing more than to hit one of them - both preferably. He was past the point where he had a problem hitting humans, even women."Well, at least it's not one of your usual fashion train wrecks. It's one thing to look like the remnants the garbage disposal leaves behind
KATHERINE THE DATE
Katherine felt as though she were in a daze as she got her coat, walked to the car, and Tyler drove for an hour to the shoreside restaurant.As Tyler drove up to the front door and a valet opened Katherine's door for her, she realized where they were: La Vienne Rose, only the most expensive and selective restaurant on the east coast.The mayor of the City was lucky if he could get a table here, and yet here they were people of obscure origins about to eat here.Another valet opened the glass door for them, and as they walked in Katherine noticed that there was a surprisingly small amount of tables more than likely because the prices were so high they could afford to have fewer tables making the atmosphere more intimate.Katherine was now very grateful to Sofia and the other girls for forcing her to wear something she normally wouldn't have been caught dead in.While Katherine took in her surroundings, she vaguely noticed Tyler pull aside their wait
KATHERINE DEALING WITH THE SCOTT'S
The night had been perfect. Tyler had seemed determined to make Katherine's night as carefree and wonderful as possible after she had listened to the story of his past at La Vienne Rose.His past had disturbed her and chilled her to her very soul. He'd done shocking things, but she'd kept her word. She hadn't judged him.She was damned proud of herself for that.Katherine looked over at Tyler, who was in the driver's seat, relaying a rather interesting tale, smiling at his story."Seriously? Oscar Wilde based The Picture of Dorian Gray on a diary you wrote and lost several hundred years ago?"Tyler laughed at Katherine's obvious shock."Pretty much, although Wilde did make certain implications in the book that was most definitely not in my diary," he replied pointedly."Really? Such as?" she said with a coy smile.Tyler looked at Katherine uncomfortably and then cleared his throat."Well... Wilde made it sound almost as
KATHERINE THE SCOTT'S
"Well, did you two have a good time? Mrs. Scott asked with nasty meaning as Tyler and Katherine walked up to the front of her and Mr. Scott.Tyler picked up Katherine's hand with the hand that wasn't around her waist and lifted it, his lips hovering over it closely.The other Parents leaned forward anxiously, looking like they didn't know what Tyler was going to do: kiss their daughter's hand or eat it."We had." Tyler kissed Katherine's hand seductively, making Katherine blush from the tips of her toes to the roots of her hair and her parents gasp for air. "...a very good time." He threw the best Transylvanian Dracula accent into the last words, forcing Katherine to cover her mouth with her other hand to keep from bursting into laughter.Katherine's other Parents looked as though they might faint."Good night, Mr. and Mrs. Scott," Tyler nodded his head in the direction of the Scott’s, his eyes turning crimson in an unspoken warning. He turne
KATHERINE THE LETTER
Across the front of the envelope, in a beautiful scroll read:"To my darling daughter, Katherine."Smiling through tears, Katherine carefully removed the envelope and opened it. In the same delicate, beautiful scroll was a letter.Dear Katherine,"I hardly know how to begin. The changes in your room and the gifts in the box before you are only the beginning of making up for the loveless life you've lived thus far, adieu to your mother's irresponsibility.Here Katherine paused.My mother? But I thought.Katherine's eyes widened as she realized who the gifts were from.Convel! But how...?Anxious, Katherine hurriedly continued to read the letter."I have much more to give you than the material things you see here. I can teach you things beyond your wildest dreams, my darling daughter, can help you achieve the things that were once out of reach, but no longer. When you wish to reach out
KATHERINE BREAKFAST TIME
Katherine looked at the clock and sighed. 4:38 She walked over to her new wicker-white wardrobe and opened the doors to pick out clothes for the day. Not like I'm going to get any sleep anyway. I might as well do something, Katherine thought, intending to make breakfast for her Other Parents. That should make them pretty happy... After Katherine had finished her morning routine she walked down the creaky stairs. As she got closer to the end of them, Katherine's sensitive hearing began picking up noises in the kitchen. Oh my... It's them. The vampires have come for me over McDuffie. Oh, why did Tyler have to kill him? Why? Katherine quietly crept down the stairs and walked over to the coat rack. Taking a large umbrella from it, she tiptoed to the kitchen, hardly daring to breathe for fear the vampires would hear her. "Marge, where does she keep the ketchup? I can't find anything here. Katherine sighed with relief at the sound of her Oth
KATHERINE REAL FRIENDS
Katherine's thoughts whirled around Thanksgiving. I can introduce him to Todd. Oh, Todd and he will get along great and- Oh, no! Nonononono...Katherine looked at her parents and her eyes hardened."Will Melody be there?"Mr. and Mrs. Scott's eyes widened. They had been found out, and oh, so easily.This was not the first time that they wished for a less clever daughter."Well, I guess that answers that question," Katherine snapped. Her eyes became soft and pleading"Don't do this. Please. You know what she's like with guys."This is so unfair. I'm finally getting somewhere with Tyler that doesn't involve verbally annihilating each other and now I'm going to lose him to my man-eating sister."We don't know what you're talking about, Katherine. It's not as though we couldn't invite your sister," Mrs. Scott said innocently.How could things turn sour so quickly? Katherine wondered. Not three minutes ago we were eating in p
