Morganville Vampires 4 - Feast of Fools

Chapter 8

Days passed, and for a change, there were no further emergencies. Normal life or what passed for it, anywayset in. Claire went to class, Eve went to work, Michael taught guitar lessonshe was a lot more in demand since the concert at Common Groundsand Shane . . . Shane slacked, although Claire thought he seemed preoccupied.

It finally dawned on her that he was thinking about Saturday, and the invitation. And that he didnt want to talk to her about it at all. So what should I do? she asked Eve. I mean, cant he just call in sick for the party or something?

Youre kidding, Eve said. You think theyd buy an excuse? If you get an invitation to something like this, you go. End of story. But Claire, who was getting glasses out of the cabinet while Eve put out plates, nearly dropped everything. But that means that creepy little bi Language, missy.

witch is going to make him go with her! That made her blindly furious, and not entirely because of how upset Shane had been before. It was the whole idea of Shane going along with it. Of Ysandre putting those pale, thin fingers on his chest, feeling his heartbeat.

Shane hadnt said a word to her about it. Not a single word. And she didnt know how to help. Eve stared at her thoughtfully for a few seconds before she said, Well, shes not the only one whos going, of course. Shane wont be all by himself.

What? Michaels going, too. I recognized the invitation when it came in. Didnt open it, though. Still, Eve had every reason to expect that Michael would at least ask her to go with him. Claire, on the other hand, was completely shut out. Which made her irrationally angry again, and this time for herself. Youre jealous, she realized. Because you dont want him going anywhere without you.

She so did not want to be that person, but there it was. And she had no idea what to do about it. When she set Shanes glass of Coke down in front of him, she did it with probably a little too much emphasis; he glanced up at her with a question-mark expression. Eve had already settled into her chair across the table. Michael wasnt home, but Eve didnt seem bothered about it this time. Maybe hed talked to her about where he was going.

Nice to know somebodys talking, Claire thought. What? Shane asked her, and took a drink. Did I forget to say thanks? Because, thanks. Best Coke ever. Did you make it yourself? Special recipe? Got any plans for Saturday night? she asked. I was thinking maybe we could go to the movies, or Too transparent. Shane knew instantly, and Eve choked on her forkful of microwave lasagna. The silence stretched. Claire poked at her own meal, just for something to do. I cant, Shane finally said. I guess you know why. Youre going to that ball thing, Claire said.
