10-Friend.
Andy POV.
“Let’s go baby” Arianna says, dragging me with her, she can’t keep calling me baby, I’ll tell her off, just after we get out of the earshot of the others.
“It’s Andy, not baby” I say she nods, and keep walking, she knew how to walk through these masses while I was lost, not knowing where to go, she did another turn and finally made it to the room, it’s a playroom of a sort.
“This is where I spend most of my time, everyone else is ancient! Dad says I’ll grow up to be as old as them, and get my own mate, but until then, I spend the most time here” she explains, the room had toys, not the one back up in my room, this one had a big dollhouse, a tea set with a table, a tent, and even a trampoline. Along with those there were some books, a TV, some bean bags and a big sofa, it’s a good-looking room, I’ll spend most of my time here too.
“I like it,” I say before remembering to ask her, “How old are you”.
“Ohh, I’m the youngest, I’m one hundred and sixteen,” she says making my mouth fall open, she’s what! She fell on her back laughing so hard at me, oh she’s making fun of me, meanie!
“You okay Arianna?” a new guy asks, coming inside the room, he pulls Ari back to her feet, giving her a look that sobered her up.
“Yes, dad I’m fine, just playing with the baby” she says, making my pout get bigger.
“My name is Andy, not baby!” I yell at her, she keeps messing my name.
“He doesn’t want to be called baby Arianna, be polite and call him by his name” he scolds her.
“Sorry daddy” she says in a really sweet voice.
“Now go say sorry to Andy” he order her, she turn to me apologizing in the same sweet voice, I forgave her right away, I gave her a hug, she deserves one.
“Good, now if you need me call out, Andy, you only have to call out for me or your daddy and one of us would come,” the new guy says before leaving the room.
“What do you want to play with first?” she asks, I didn’t know what to play with, I just shrug letting her choose.
“We can have a tea party!” she says getting the table set, I helped her, once the table was set, added the chairs, there were five chairs, two for us but the rest were empty.
“You can choose our guest,” she says pointing to a pile of stuffies.
I chose a panda bear, a teddy bear, and finally a kitten stuffy, I brought them back to our table, making them sit down, I sat down too with Ari, she offered me imaginary tea, and we started talking about ourselves.
“Are you really one hundred and sixteen?” I ask her making her giggle again.
“No, silly, I’m sixteen, but I had to mess with you” she says with a cheap smile before adding a sorry.
“How old are you?” she asks next.
“I’m eighteen,” I say I’m supposed to be older than her, but by our looks, I look like a baby especially with my clothes.
“Are you a vampire?” I ask her, although I knew she was.
“Yeah, born one, you saw my papa this morning, and the guy that was here is my dad” she says, but how could two guys get a baby.
“They used a surrogate” she explains to my confused look, I made an oh face.
“Did uncle Dante buy you?” she asks making me blush, yeah that, I nod my head yes.
“Is he your first owner?” she asks, I look down feeling shy, before nodding yes.
“You’re lucky, uncle Dante is really nice” she says, yeah right! He’s anything but nice!
We moved back to lighter subjects, favorite animals, favorite colors, what’s like to be human, and what’s like to be a vampire, she told me all about having to drink blood while she wanted candy, but too much candy isn’t good for her.
“Did uncle Dante said anything about TV?” she asks me, I shake my head no, he said limited screen time but didn’t specify.
“Yey! Let’s watch some TV” she says jumping up on the sofa, and helping me lay down next to her watching a show she chose, it wasn’t really good, I didn’t like it but still watched with her.
“Hey little ones, how you doing here?” Dante asks coming in the room, Ari tried to change the TV, but she wasn’t fast enough, he saw what we had on.
“Arianna!” he says turning to her with a big frown.
“Hi uncle!” she says with a big smile.
“Save it, I catch this show on again and I’ll be the one punishing you” he threatens her, picking me up from the couch.
