pure vampire 30 Secrets

There's something about his posture that's familiar. The guy sits bedside Simon and they do that guy fist pump greeting.

"Hey man what's the emergency?" The guy's deep voice washes over my sensitive ears freezing me inside out.

I know that voice.

If a hundred years past I would still know that voice.

It was the voice I used to look forward to overhearing every day at school.

It was the voice that I used to long for at night.

It was the voice of none other than Jace.

Jace Pov

Jace sighed looking out the car window. He can't believe his mom forced him to miss school today to go on some stupid college tours.

"Jace it was a nice school" his mother said pulling into their driveway

"Whatever" he mumbled. Jace took his phone out to another frantic text from his friend Simon.

The last two years he's gotten to know Simon and they've become good friends. At first it was tough with his classmates teasing him because of it but after what happened with Analise, he no longer cared. Jace doesn't live his life to please other people now. After losing the most important girl to peer pressure he vowed to make a change. All he needed now was the girl that was always meant to be his; Ana

As soon as the car parked Jace hopped out rushing to his truck.

"Where are you going?! Next tour is in an hour!" His mom shouted at his retreating form. He just waved her away hoping into his black pick up.

Jace already had a plan after high school. He and Simon were going to search for Ana. Jace knew she was out there somewhere and they would find her. When they do he planned to get on his knees and beg for forgiveness. Jace knew he and Ana shared a connection he just let high school bull get in the way.

He waved to his angry looking mother as he backed out the driveway. If only she understood why he wanted to put college on hold. He tried to explain to his mother before but she called it nonsense best left for the police. Yeah right. The idiots at the police dept. have been coming up empty for two years. Jace was sure he and Simon could do a better job.

Speeding down the empty streets he hurried to the park to meet his friend. Simon is a bit strange but his text messages suggest something else is going on. Of course it would be on the one day Jace isn't there. If Bobby and his buddies are messing with Simon again Jace is going to beat his ass. He already told them to back off. Though he was sure behind his back they still gave Simon hell.

As soon as he arrived at the park he spotted his buddy sitting on the bench. Jace casually sat beside him and fist bumped

"Hey man what's the emergency?" Jace asked wondering what's got Simon so riled up he's skipping class

"There's this girl..." Simon replied staring off at the water

"A girl huh? Is she hot?" Jace teased with a grin. Simon shoved his shoulder playfully

"Yes but that's not the point" Simon said

"Okay what is it? Do I know her?" Jace curiously wondered

"No she just started today. And she well, first she won't stop following me-"

"You 911 texted me because a hot girl is following you?" Jace interrupted to ask. He was starting to think Simon was beyond strange and more insane

"No. Just listen. This girl is different. When she's close I feel like I know her. Like I miss her. And when I looked into her eyes I swear I saw Ana there..." Simon trailed off

"Sy buddy we both miss Ana, but-" Jace started

"No don't try to make me sound crazy! I know what I feel. There's something about this girl. I mean she punched Bobby for me! Tell me that's not strange?" Simon was getting borderline hysterical. Jace held his hands out in a non-defensive gesture to calm him

"Chill Simon we'll figure it out. Wait, did you say she punched Bobby?" Jace asked when he caught on. Simon nodded.

Wow maybe Sy is onto something. It does seem weird a new girl would punch the most popular guy in school on her first day. Add that to her punching him for Simon makes the whole situation crazier.

No matter whom this girl is she couldn't be Analise. Ana was always so quiet and avoided conflict. She would never just out right punch someone. Especially Bobby, one of her biggest tormentors. The thought of all the things they did to her had Jace balling his fist. How he wish he could turn back time and be there for Ana when she needed a friend.

Jace's phone went off and he didn't need to look to know it was his mother.

"Hey I got to take off but I'll be back at school tomorrow just stay away from her until we figure out her deal okay?" Jace said standing

"Okay. Thanks for coming" Simon said fist bumping with Jace

"Anytime man" Jace replied back running off to his truck.

The dark clouds shrouded the sun making the day look gray. Jace knew any moment the rain would start. When he got into his truck thunder sounded loud around him. He watched as Simon along with a few other people ran to their cars. Not a second later the rain started to fall.

Jace thought this was perfect. He sent a text to his mom informing her that due to the down pour he would be late getting back. After all his safety should be first.
