Chapter Thirteen
At some point, I either passed out or fell asleep.
I opened my eyes and, as my eyes adjusted, I could finally see. I was alone in the room. I pulled out my cell from my pocket. The lighted display read 2:12 a.m. Four hours of my life had just vanished. I stood up, and my legs felt wobbly. It had not been a Partylite candle party. It had been a party of the other type.
What the hell had been in that drink?
I slowly got dressed and weeble-wobbled to the bedroom door and then made my way to the living room. There were still a lot of couples making out. Smoke from the many candles hung suspended in the air. The whole scene was surreal and bizarre, and now I was a part of it. I needed fresh air. With my legs feeling a little stronger, I headed out the front door.
I stood on the brick steps and took in a lot of fresh air, which did wonders to clear my head. And that’s when I heard the sounds of crying. Off to the right, in a small patch of grass near the side of the house, was a swing hanging from the thick branch of a tree. Lena was sitting alone and crying softly, the sounds of her muffled sobs reaching me in the quiet night air. I walked over to her.
“Hey,” I said.
Lena looked up at me. “Hi, Josiah.” She wiped her eyes.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.”
“It doesn’t seem as if it’s nothing,” I said. “What’s going on? Where’s Atticai?”
“Atticai left with a couple of his friends.”
I looked over and noticed the van was still in the driveway.
“The van is still here. Is he coming back?”
“I don’t know. He doesn’t like to tell me what he does.”
I paused. “That’s a pretty weird party going on in there.” I didn’t mention the foursome I had, although thanks to the power of that witchy potion I had drank, I was beginning to remember less and less of it. Which was a damn shame.
“You have no idea,” she said. “Did you go upstairs?”
“For a moment, but Yari found me and said I shouldn’t be up there.”
“Be glad that she did; they might not have known.”
“Not know what?” I asked.
Lena looked at me. “You have no idea what they were doing up there?”
“I’m not stupid,” I said. “I assume they were doing drugs.”
“Drugs? You think that’s what this party is about? A drug free-for-all? Are you honestly that clueless?”
“What are you saying?”
“Open your eyes, Josiah!”
“This all comes back to what your freaky friends did at the frat party, sucking on everyone’s neck and wrists. Do these people truly think they are vampires?”
Lena gave me a withering look that seemed to imply I was the world’s biggest idiot. Maybe I was. “Josiah, they were feeding up there!”
“Feeding? Like eating?”
She shook her head violently, and she kept shaking her head.
“Feeding on what, Lena?” My voice growing higher, perhaps with panic. “What were they feeding on? People?”
“No, not
