two weeks in

Chapter 7: “Two weeks in”

It was two weeks later before Tempest knew it… She had trained a lot in that time.
_____________That evening in the kitchen______________

“Well you two can do whatever. I’m sorry Tempest but your questions will still have to wait, this cannot. Jacques I’ll be back just before sunrise, don’t leave the house okay.” Julian told them.

“Why can’t we leave the house?” Tempest asked.

“The Lycons are out tonight, it’s a full moon.” Julian answered.

Wait, her and Jacques are going to have the house to ourselves?! Holy shit! Just like her dream! Tempest started to panic.

“We can do some training if you want to? You’re already pretty good, but with training you could get even better.” Jacques spoke.

“You know what, training sounds like a good idea. I will need to be basically perfect at fighting to even have a chance.” Tempest spoke, trying to keep her dream from coming true. Wait, where is Julian going?

“Well I’m going to go now, remember to NOT leave the house! Especially since they are looking for you two.” Julian demanded.

“Okay okay. I promise neither of us will step one foot out of the house. Speaking about ‘them’, you be careful too.” Jacques said, smiling at Julian.

Julian smiled back. “I don’t know what she did to change you but I like it.” Julian turned to look at Tempest. “Keep up the good work Tempest.”

Tempest smiled at him. “Will do Julian, will do.”

With that said, Julian turned around and left the kitchen, heading for the front door and walked outside into the full moon light.

Once Julian was out of earshot, Jacques turned to Tempest. “He left to hunt for food. He has blood here but he wants me to have it so I can’t be seen.”

“How’d you know I was going to ask where he was going?” Tempest asked.

“Why wouldn’t you want to know? I figured most likely you’d want to know.” Jacques answered.

“Oh…” Tempest said, feeling stupid. She started to blush when she realized that he was sitting really close to her.

“Are you feeling okay? You look a little red.” Jacques asked, putting his right hand on Tempest’s forehead and his left hand on the back of her neck. The only thing that sis was make her blush even more still. “Hmmm. You don’t feel hot. Stay here, I’ll see if Julian has any medicine, and yes, vampires can get colds too.”

“…Okay…” Tempest answered.

Jacques smiled at her again and left the kitchen. At least she now had time to stop blushing! Relieved to have a moment alone to calm herself down.

Jacques came back into the kitchen with medicine. “Well all I could find was cough medicine so it’s up to you.”

Tempest thought for a second… “Nah. I’ll take it when and if I start coughing.”

He shrugged and looked at her again. “Well you’re no longer red so I guess Julian won’t kill me for letting you get sick.”

He sat the medicine on the table and sat down, this time across from her. Thank god he sat there! She smiled at him.

After a while, Jacques broke the silence. “So if you go into your room, you will find a clean pair of closes that Julian should have left you.” Jacques said as he got up and opened the fridge. From the fridge he brought out an bottle of blood. “What? A vampires got to eat.” He spoke as he walked out of the kitchen.

She knew the drinking of blood wouldn’t bug her but she still liked how he cared enough for what she thought of him. She decided to go and change…

When Tempest walked into her room, there on the bed was a pair of normal blue jeans and a blue top. Before she changed, she took off all of her jewelry and piercing, cause they’d only get in the way.

After she got dressed she went downstairs to find Jacques in only pants and shoes… Damn he’s got a six pack! She tried not to show that she was blushing as she walked up to him. Jacques lead the way…

When they got into the training room, Jacques went to the middle of the room and turned around. “This time your target is me. To get you use to my fighting skills though, lets just try out hand-to-hand combat right now, okay.”

Tempest looked at him. Her and him. Hand-to-hand!? “Um sure, I guess.” She answered, realizing she hadn’t said anything yet…

He smiled and shook his head. “Calm down. I’ll take it easy on you.”

“Is it that obvious?” Tempest asked.

“Yeah it is.” Jacques answered.

He waited a while for her to calm down a little… “Okay to start off I’ll teach you the basic hits.”

“Um… I kind of already know how to fight hand-to-hand.” Tempest spoke.

Jacques raised an eyebrow at that. “Oh really? Exactly what can you do?”

“Well I’ve always won and I hardly ever get a scratch.” Tempest answered, remembering back.

“Interesting, very interesting.” Jacques responded in a teasing tone.

“You don’t believe me, do you?” She asked, crossing her arms over her chest.

“Well not about the fighting but the winning… come on.” He answered, amused by her attitude.

“Fine I guess I need to prove it then!” She responded by uncrossing her arms and getting into a fighting stance.

He put his hands up in a defensive manner. “I didn’t mean to upset you by saying that.”

Tempest smirked. “Too late. You better watch it, I’m pretty good at this…”

Jacques got into a fighting stance. “Fine, I will.”
