Chapter 12
outfit up top
It was Lunch at Hemlock Grove high. She had cooked an amazing lunch. By the time she walked out of the school to get away from the building, she saw Roman staring at something. She softly touched his arm making him look at her.
"Rome, you okay?" Kerrianne asked him.
"Look forward," Roman discreetly pointed in front of him.
There was a spike in Kerrianne's emotions.
Jealous
Anger
Sadness
Kerrianne pulled him by his hand, walking down the steps almost making Peter not talk to Lethia. Kerrianne avoided eye contact with Peter making Lethia think she won. Kerrianne smiled at Shelley, softly hugging the girl before leading Roman to an empty bench. She put an old jacket over her thighs. She opened her food case.
"Did you eat Rome?" Kerrianne questioned him.
"No, why? What did you cook?" Roman replied to her.
"Burrito bowl with Chicken and shrimp." Kerrianne whispers.
"Feed it to me." Roman whispers kind of knowing Peter was staring at them.
"Okay." Kerrianne nodded before scooping some food out feeding Roman who almost moaned at the taste.
"It's good. Ain't it." Kerrianne giggled at him as she ate some herself.
Peter was getting jealous of his two mates talking and sharing together. He watched Kerrianne playfully smack Roman chest when he told her a joke. Roman could feel her emotions feeling much better than when he had shown her Peter and Lethia. Roman would softly touch the bunny sending shivers and causing goosebumps as her body welcomed his touch.
Shelley was now confused, did her brother like Kerrianne too. She watched Peter ignore Lethia basically watching Kerrianne and her brother talk and basically share her lunch. She was happy that her brother found someone to be there for him. He wouldn't be lonely anymore.
"My mom wanted me to invite you to the 20th anniversary gala tomorrow. We are having it for my father." Roman said.
"Really. Okay yeah. Have you asked her about the picture?" Kerrianne says.
"They used to work with Godfrey industries. That's as much I could get out of her." Roman said, making her nod.
"Thank you. I will be there tomorrow." Kerrianne states as she feeds Roman the last bite before boxing everything up.
She put the lunch box in her bag. She grabs Roman's hand.
"Come on, Walk me to my next class." Kerrianne said before she pulled him along and Roman was just enjoying the ride and the back of Kerrianne.
Peter was now upset. Kerrianne still avoided him the rest of the day, spending time with only Roman and occasionally Shelley if she saw her in the hallway. People were beginning to think Roman, and the 'witch' was dating. They would see Roman have his hand around her waist or him moving her hair to the side, whispering into her ear with a smirk. Peter walks out the school to see Christina Wendell, who's been a pain in his side since he got there. He stood near her.
"I heard what happened to you in the woods. I'm sorry." Peter says as Christina stared at him gripping her books.
"Why would you be sorry?" Christina asked.
"Because I am." Peter said, almost scoffing.
The nerve of this girl, he tried to be polite and to say sorry because no kid should see something like that. His train of thought was stopped by her saying something.
"Are you done?" Christina asked, wanting to be far away from him.
"I guess so." Peter whispers before walking away before Christina says one more thing.
"You won't get away with it, you know?" making Peter stop before he turns to look at her before walking off.
Kerrianne walked out, overhearing Christina's talk with Peter. Christina was like a bug she wanted to crush under her shoe. The more nonsense the girl says the more this town will start coming after thinking they really did kill those girls. But she also wondered why she was so pushing all the heat on them and when she paused.
"Could she be the Vargulf. She couldn't" Kerrianne thought before she walked away to her car.
All three of them would meet later at his Cousin Destiny's place. So, she had time to spare. Her monthly allowance came in and she had to buy a dress for Roman's Father gala. She went to the nearest dress shop. Going in, the polite cashier welcomed her in before she started looking. She finally found a beautiful dress and went to try it on. The dress fitted her just right. It showed every curve on her body. She took the dress off before putting back her clothes on going to pay for the dress.
It didn't take long before it was time to meet up with the boys at Peter's cousin's house. 'Tyler the creator song 'Sweet/I thought you wanted to dance' played as she pulled by the side curb, she mumbled the song getting out of the car as her hips slightly to the music. She saw Roman's car before going to her apartment.
Peter Pov:
Roman and Peter watch Destiny grabs the jar with Lisa's intestines and set it on the table. She headed over to her plant she had by the window to grab the caterpillar that will help her.
"Hello, handsome." Destiny cooed to the caterpillar with a muah sound.
"Sorry, Buddy. Bon appetit." Destiny continued before putting him into the jar.
They heard the doorbell ring.
"That must be Kerrianne." Peter says.
"Well, she's late." Roman states to him.
Peter rolled his eyes before going to open the door. Kerrianne stood there.
"Hey, sorry I'm late." Kerrianne says as he lets her in.
"It's okay, we just finished." Peter said.
Kerrianne nodded before looking at Roman.
"Hey Rome." Kerrianne said as she took off her coat, setting it on the couch.
"Kerrianne, you're late." Roman looks at her.
"Well, I had to find the perfect dress. What are you, my father?" Kerrianne questioned.
Roman started to open his mouth like he wanted to say something.
"Don't answer that. How long is this going to take? She asked.
"Better to let this sit for good measure." Destiny replies as she finally turns to look at her cousin's mate.
"Hm?" Kerrianne states.
"It's finally good to meet Peter's mate." Destiny says before going over to the girl, grabbing her hand.
Flashes almost blinded Destiny as she looked through the bunny shifter future.
"Nice to meet you too." Kerrianne muttered wondering what she was seeing.
Destiny put her hand down like Roman; she didn't say anything but knew that Kerrianne will go through her own hardships.
"Just as cute as a button." Destiny teased as she touched her soft cheeks.
"Thanks." Kerrianne said awkwardly.
"We'll need Tequila." Destiny continued.
"Is that part of it?" Peter questioned.
"No." Destiny explained.
"Um, Something in a pretty bottle. Silver's good." Destiny states making Peter nod.
"You got it." Peter answered before they walked out but was stopped by Destiny grabbing Kerrianne's hand.
"Beautiful bunny, It's almost time. To start a new course." Destiny looked in trance before snapping out of it.
Destiny whispered an apology before they left.
Kerrianne walked silently down the stairs following Roman and Peter.
"Kerrianne, are you okay?" Peter eyed the quiet girl with worried eyes.
"Just thinking." Roman discreetly grabs her hand, almost dragging her down the stairs hoping to distract the poor girl.
She squeezed it, thanking him for the reassurance. Roman held a small smirk on his face before she let go with a promise to see him tonight and Peter to tell her the updates. She couldn't help but think about what Destiny said as she got in her car going straight home.
