Then Leah fell in love with another vampire who ate human blood. He just didn't want to part with the human blood. But he also fell in love with Leah. As much as he wanted to, he had to give up human blood. Now he would never drink human blood himself. His name is Samuel or just Sam. A year later, I met Leah. I didn't understand her, but she brought me into her family, and there I realized how terrible it was that I was doing. They all became my family. After me, John or Johnny joined us, as we call him in the family. He was turned to sixteen and forced to kill people. He obeyed those vampires at first, and then he ran away from them. He knew there was a vampire family out there somewhere who didn't drink human blood. He found us and asked us to live with him. This is how we live.
-I see. How did you tell them about me?
-They figured out for themselves that I fell in love. The first one noticed it, Nick, but she didn't say anything. Then Leah guessed it and started to wonder who my lady was and why I didn't introduce her to them. Then I told her about you. Then they saw you at our house and wanted to meet you. But then this concussion story happened. In general, there wasn't a good time. And now we have one. Leah can't wait for her to finally have a girlfriend.
-She doesn't have any friends at all?
-Well, you judge for yourself. Only Nika is a feminine family, but Leah is more like her mother, and it's very hard to find a girlfriend among people to tell her everything.
-Yes, she did. I already want to meet your family so badly.
-I believe it willingly. - Ian smiled.
Then we just kept quiet and soon I fell asleep.
I woke up lying in bed all right. Ian was lying next to me looking at me.
-You're sleeping so beautifully.
-Interesting, what do you think is beautiful in my sleeping face?
-Your peaceful smile makes me smile. Your face is so calm.
-Hmm... -I smiled. - What time is it now?
Nine forty-three, to be exact.
I jumped out of bed.
-Why didn't you wake me up? I have to go for a long time in search of a dress.
-I will succeed. Okay, you get ready, and I'll go downstairs.
Forty minutes later, I went downstairs. There was a complete idyll - my mother was sitting in a hug with Steve. Ian was sitting next door. They were talking about something and laughing about it.
-There was our sleeping beauty. - Steve greeted me.
-Sonia. - My mother added with a smile.
-So now I'm going to buy a dress for the ball, who's with me? - I asked.
-Я! - Mom and Steve said the chorus.
We all laughed together.
-Mom, give me the keys, and I'll wait for you in the car.
-No, I'm not. Let's go on mine. - Steve said.
-Well, then, let's get out. - I was in charge.
All three of them came up and headed for the exit with me.
Before Ian went, he kissed me and went somewhere else.
We went shopping for four hours and ended up going home with our bags full. Steve paid for all our purchases. He justified it by saying that we were his family now, and he had to take care of us. He also wanted to make up for the eighteen years he had missed. Among the things he bought were two dresses for me and my mother to meet Ian's family, in addition to the ball dress. Steve also bought us a bracelet, a chain, earrings, a ring, and a pair of gold jewelry on a small heel. He also bought me one jeans, two tunics, a pantsuit, a warm autumn jacket and autumn boots. Oh, and another skirt. I don't like wearing skirts very much, but I liked this one. Steve's mom bought two more dresses, a sundress, a business suit, and just like me, a jacket and boots.
At first, we didn't agree in any way, but then we got tired of these altercations and allowed him to buy us everything he wanted. The most important thing is that all the things he bought were the most fashionable and expensive brands. Money is not measured in his course. This is also evidenced by his car - some terribly expensive jeep, I certainly do not know about stamps.
After the shops, we stopped by, had lunch at a restaurant. Then we went home. My mother and I spent half an hour there resting and going home to Ian.
Half an hour later, Mom and I all went downstairs with all the pretty, cute ones where Steve was waiting for us.
-Believe it... -He just said when he saw us.
-And I thought you were expressing yourself in cultural terms. - As if between the lines I said.
-Of course not. That is, yes. You completely confused me! - He answered, confusedly, he answered.
Steve was wearing a black tuxedo with a black shirt. It looked awesome - just like "people in black. There was a knock on the door.
-I'll open it. - I said.
I knew it was probably Ian, and I wanted to see how he reacted.
When I opened the door, there were two guys on the doorstep, one Ian and the other Johnny, probably because he looked a little younger than Ian. Both were out. They just stood there with their mouths open, staring at me.
-You didn't say she was like that... That's all the other guy could say.
-You're beautiful. - Ian said, but I stayed the same, and the second one didn't look better.
-Hmm... I didn't think vampires could react that way. - I told the crazy guys.
-Actually, vampires are all kinds of connoisseurs of beauty. - The second guy came out of the stupor.
-Yeah." Ian said, and he hugged me and kissed me on the cheek.
-Let me. - He said the second one and pushed Ian away from me.
And kissed my hand. I laughed.
-You're Johnny, right? - I asked.
-That's it! - He said it artistically.
-Okay, come on in.
The three of us headed towards Mom and Steve. They were cooing about something.
-Well, what are the lovebirds, let's go? - I asked them.
They didn't mind that.
-Well, let's go. - Steve said.
And we left the house.
-I'll ask you to sit in our car. - Johnny also said it was artistic again.
-No. We'll ride our own. Follow you. - Steve refused.
-Well, good. Just let Leela come with me and Ian.
-Of course. Where will I go? - I answered.
We got into the cars and drove. Ian was driving, I was in the passenger seat, and Johnny was in the back.
As we drove, we were having fun talking. And Johnny told us a couple of funny stories.
When we got there, Ian gallantly opened the car door and helped me get out of it.
-What a beauty! - My mother admired the house.
Then Ian took us to the house. Ian and Leah's parents met us at home with Sam.
-And this means incomparable Lilianne, and this is her mother. And that means her dad. - I think Nika was twittering.
-Hello. - I greeted them.
-Nica, Red, Leah, Sam, meet them. This is Leela, this is her mother Christie, and this is Steve, Leela's father. - Ian introduced us. - And this is Nick, Red, Leah, Sam. That's all.
-Nice to meet you. - Steve said and reached out to the head of the family.
Red shook her.
-Well, come on in. - Nick said.
