[ V ] Chapter 5
"Why?" Alice whined into the phone a week or two later.
I sighed and sipped on some animal blood I procured from my last hunting trip. "Alice, I'm not too fond of huge parties. I've already sent my gift for Isabella. It should arrive tomorrow"
"Where are you though?" Alice pipes up, deciding to drop the subject. For now. Through the phone, I heard her shuffling through her large collection of fancy dresses.
"Italy."
Silence on the other line. Oh crap. "What?!" She screeched and I held the phone an arm-length away. "Italy?! Don't tell me that the Volturi got to you!"
Suddenly, I just had the sudden urge to smash the pixie's face into the concrete. "No, Alice. I'm like a city away from Volterra. Besides. I'm a big girl. I can take care of myself if one of those arrogant ruffians decide to take me on. Do you not trust me?"
Alice started to whimper. "I trust you. It's just that, The Volturi are. . . well. . . oh, I got to go. Hunting trip." With a click, Alice's voice disappeared. Downing the rest of the animal blood, I decided to take a shower.
Stepping out of the shower, I wrapped myself in a bath robe and went to my phone. A text from Rose. Ooh, I haven't heard from her in a while. Flipping the device open, I read the text.

I snorted. It was so like Rose to complain about almost everything.

Subject: Rawr

-Vienna.
Shutting the phone off, I tossed it onto the bed before collapsing down onto the bed beside it. Sometimes, I regret being a vampire. For one, I never get to sample any food anymore because my body would just reject it entirely and throw it up immediately. Secondly, it's because I miss sleeping. It was the only way for me to escape the world.

I Have to Text my Ex, or the World Explodes
Do you have an anus? If you do, here's a great little nonsensical story for you to turn off your brain and read while you're stuck in the toilet with nothing to do. Here's the premise of my new story: Andrew Garage thought he was the Chosen One.Stuck in a time loop that reset whenever a meteor crashed to Earth, he was determined to save mankind and get himself out of the loop. On his seventh try, he finally eliminated the catastrophic meteorite with an Antimatter Gun.However, a self-proclaimed Goddess suddenly appeared and sent Andrew back into the loop again because he saved the world 'the wrong way'. As Andrew bitterly scavenged for solutions, he found out that the reason the meteor kept crashing into Earth because. . . he kept ignoring his exes' texts. Great for people with anuses and people who want to destroy meteorites. Not recommended for people who expect actual logic like NOT winning the lottery five times in a row.
