Hey guys! It's me, Lavender. The author and maker of "A Love Like, Crimson Roses!" ^_^

Now, I know this may come as a shock but we are going to have such a blast. For those who looks for a forbidden romance, a love to good to be true, the feels of trust and betrayal.. Well, this is the story for you. This story you can say is like, a very proud piece of mines. And don't worry for those who might get confused along the way, everything will start pulling together as you go throughout the story.

However, this start is a little bit different from the novels your usually use to reading all day. This story is a "POV" meaning (point of view.) It could only mean, it will come from the views of the characters involved in this book. Every character in this book specks to there own personality. Each one, is unique and proud in their own way. However, the love never stops running.

I'm nothing more but a Brooklyn girl from New York. But I had my fair share of experience in life despite my age- which is only 21 by the way lol. I only hope for your love and support ^_^!

I look through the window, where I see kids outside playing tag and two couples walking towards their car. It made me wonder if life was always this calm and peaceful. I mean, from the ups and downs my family was going through with money issues, I couldn't help the thought that crawled up into my head. It wasn't everyday, I would sit here and think about life; but today was just one of those moments.

"Fiona! Your going to be late!" my mom called from downstairs. I sighed in frustration, that I would have to go to school today. It was enough that I was already unpopular and nerd to boot. I walked away from the window "I'm coming mom!" I took one more look in the mirror. I wasn't sure if my yellow shirt with black strips complimented my black high heel boots but I was willing to try to get noticed this year. I gathered my school bag and unplugged my new phone from its charger, making my way downstairs.

When I got down, I heard my mom and dad fighting again. I made sure to listen in and stay in the corner by the stairs "You think I don't want to get a job?! I would prefer a job now, then to have you complain about every damn second." And there it was. The reason why they were always fighting. My dad lost his job about a year ago and mom had to take up extra shifts at the clinic to make ends meet. So, in other words. Dad was jobless and mom was over-worked. Before the argument can take on a desperate turn, I stepped out from the corner pretending I only just got downstairs "Okay, I'm here. Mom your ready?" Mom gave dad one last glare before turning to me "Of course, lets be on our way." As we made our way out the door, I gave dad a tight hug of hope that everything was going to be okay, and followed mom out.

The drive to school was quiet until we hit a red light that was ten blocks away from the school "How much did you hear?" I turn to her while her face was still focused on the road "I guess you knew your seventeen year old daughter was there, huh?" she sighed "You know I don't like it when me and your father fights." I rolled my eyes at how rich that sounded "You don't like it but you guys do it anyway. Why?" the light turns green and she puts on her best smile "Well sweetie, that's life." I couldn't help but laugh at that response "Right, and I'm in high school." I say sarcastically. I turned to look out the window to avoid having anymore conversations. I already knew everything she would have said to make it seem everything was going to be okay. But, I knew better then to believe that..

It was first period and I'm standing by my locker waiting for my three best-friends. Tori, Sasha, and Cleo. We've been best-friends for as long as I can remember. Tori was always the jock in our group. Sasha is the fashion icon, while Cleo and I were nothing but geek without the charming. But we were the prefect group of friends. As I take out my chemistry book, Sasha and Tori shows up both at my sides "Omg Fiona, I'm so loving the black boots." Sasha squeals as Tori rolled her eyes "Only our own fashion icon would know what's in and what's out." We laughed as Sasha pouts "It would have been better if you put in as much as an effort as Fiona, Tori." I laughed even more when Tori gave Sasha the death glare and Sasha putting up her hands like she got caught by the cops. As I'm looking around, I still wasn't seeing any signs of Cleo "Guys, where is Cleo?" While Sasha was to busy fixing her everyday make-up, Tori answers my question "I think she could either be at the library or in study hall." I nod. That did seemed like Cleo. This was finals week. It would only make sense she would be in either of the two cracking down on some studying time by herself. So, we all knew it was better not to disturb her. As we are making our way to chemistry, there he was. Seth Kingston. The only guy I've been crushing on since freshmen year. Seth is not just a drama major but a genius. Plus he was also popular and the quarterback for our schools Red-hawks, football team. And the only one that would ever match up to him is his best-friend Ajar Felon. He was good-looking and a genius, probably more then Seth. But he was the bad boy. As much as he was smart. He was trouble.

As Sasha looks at me, I glared at her "What?" Tori rolled her eyes "Oh come on. Sasha stare could only mean one thing. Are you gonna walk your smart ass over there or are we gonna have to push you to make things happen?" I quickly turn to Tori "You wouldn't dare." Sasha giggles "Oh Fiona. As prefect as my tinted lips are and how awesome I nailed this amazing eye-linear cat eye. Trust and believe--" before Sasha can finish her sentence, we heard I voice behind us "Your blocking my way." as we slowly turned around, it was Ajar Felon. He was dressed in all black. His black shirt cling to all the right places of his upper body. I couldn't help but feel this urge.. this urge to want to kiss him as soon as our eyes made contact. Ajar and I stood there, staring at each other in that moment. A moment that felt like an eternity and for some unbelievable reasonable moment.. I think he felt it too. As I can feel Sasha's and Tori's stares on me; Sasha clears her throat and moves me sightly to the left, making room for Ajar to pass "Sorry, she usually doesn't space out like this." Ajar, who is still looking at me breaks the connection to look at Sasha ".. Whatever." and makes his way pass us. While Sasha collects herself, Tori spoke up "Okay. Don't mean to sound like I read something from the twilight zone. But that was super creepy." I looked at her, wanting to say something but couldn't make out the words. Which part exactly did she find creepy? The part, where he showed up? Or, was it the part where I felt for the first time I felt like kissing someone that wasn't Seth?.. Of course, I didn't say that out loud. I was already creep out enough as it was, with me wanting to kiss the bad boy and all.

Trying to focus my attention to what Mr. Webber was teaching in class, I was still thinking about Ajar. It was the first time I felt like I was being sucked into this invisible force. Something I can't explain. Biting down on my pen nervously; I heard my name "Ms. Lynn?" I was finally able to bring back my thoughts to planet earth, and missed the question that was asked "I'm sorry. What was the question?" Mr. Webber sighs "Ms. Lynn, what I hate more then kids not paying attention; is kids who makes me repeat myself." I look around class, where I felt every eye staring at me. Slowly lowering myself down in my seat, I softly let out a sorry. Mr. Webber shakes his head in disapproval "Don't make it happen again." I nod. And the bell rang. Everyone gathered up their stuff and made their way outside of the classroom.

Great. Just flipping freaking great! Not only was Ajar in my head but he was making me mess up in class too. Ugh! I can feel this day already turning out to be a bust.

Lunch time rolls around, and I wanted nothing but to be alone right now. I wasn't feeling up to talking to anyone let alone being around them as well. I wasn't feeling myself, so I made my way to the backstair case where a lot of people don't know exist. When I got there, Ajar Felon was sitting in my spot and I let out a more of frustrated attitude then I wanted "You've gotta be fucking kidding me." Ajar notices the frustration in my voice and smiles "Well nice to see you too." he says.

I can feel him mocking me "I didn't know anyone knew about here." Ajar looks at me, like if he's suppose to care "Well neither did I." I felt this wasn't going to be a conversation of who was here first and who gets to leave. So, I wasn't sure what to talk about in this moment. I stare at him, and there it was again. This feeling when I see him. Like I'm being pulled to him. I never use to feel this way before with him. Why now?

Ajar looks at me and gets up. Slowly walking towards me. Before I knew it, we were only about 2 inches from each other. His hand traveled to my cheek and he says in a soft whisper "You feel it too, don't you?" my mind was starting to feel fuzzy. I wasn't sure if it was just his cologne or just the fact he was this close to me. Close to where I can feel his touch. I close my eyes, responding back in a hush tone "What is this feeling.. Ajar Felon?" I feel his other hand travel up my right arm, as I feel the space between us closing. His voice goes hush "I don't know.. For some reason. I'm drawn to you. I wasn't feeling this way before today.." and that's when I opened my eyes and pushed him away "Before today?.." He looks at me. I can see he is just as lost as I am. We both didn't know what was going on. I've literally spent as long as I can remember pining after Seth Kingston. And now, I'm feeling this whole new connection with Ajar Felon, and I have no idea where it's coming from. In all honesty, I still like Seth. But what I was feeling for Ajar wasn't making any sense.

What was even more weird, was that we both feel it. And we both wasn't feeling this way before today..

What the heck was going on?..

I see her. Just an average looking girl if you ask me. She's got the glasses, plus the cute dimples. She's only wearing a yellow shirt with black strips on it, followed by her lather skirt; with her black high heel boots. She was nothing but average looking. She was pretty, yes. But average.

I'm waiting for her to move but she is looking at me, as much as I'm looking at her. And in that moment I have this urge and a vision.

It's a women, that looks just like her. Standing in a field of crimson roses mouthing out the words 'HELP' As she turns to face me with blood on her hands. Coming close to me she whispers 'Help me Ajar-'

As the vision was taking place, one of her friends clears her throat interrupting me before the vision can finish and moves her slightly to the left, for me to pass "Sorry. She usually doesn't space out like this." as I'm still looking at this girl, I chose to break the connection I was sharing with her. I don't know why, but I think she noticed it too. As I look at her friend I said ".. Whatever."

I didn't want to come off rude but whatever that was, I wanted no part in it. And I walked passed them.

While I walked to my best-friend Seth, I turn to look back, to see her and her two friends walk off.

As I'm trying to figure out what that vision was about, Seth popped up in front of me "Yo! Dude, you cool?" I smiled and give him a fist bump "You know I'm always chillin. Where's Magnolia?" Magnolia is Seth's sister. And it happens we all share a little secret.

We're vampires.

As if specking of the devil, Magnolia shows up "Did I hear my name?" smiling, I pulled her into a headlock "Was you feeding without me again?" she laughs "Not like you missed much." I let her go, while Seth greeted her with a hug.

As vampires, we try not to blow our covers. But we take advantage of whatever is at our disposal. Just like me, I have visions. I can tell the future or rewrite it in my own merit. So, it comes in handing when it's time to cheat on a test I'm not prepared for.

Seth can erase the memories of mortals and anything supernatural, which makes life more easier for when someone finds out about us; While Magnolia can teleport. Which makes travel more fun for us.

In all honesty, we're just your average looking vampires, who people don't know exist. And so far, we love the fact that they don't. We'd hate to have to erase the whole human race. That would be a pain in the neck.

As Magnolia friends shows up, I pulled Seth to the side "Hey, can I bother you real quick?" he looks at me confused, as the rest of the hall of people gets ready to go to their classes. I look around to make sure no one is listening in "Dude, something weird just happened to me." Seth is now interested and intrigued "What could have possibly happen to the smartest guy I know?" he is laughing but I'm not "This is not a joke man. I had a vision." taking a breath in, I look at him "It was intense." Seth looks at me worried "What was it about?" I try to look for the words, on how I can describe the vision. Different? New? Not the norm? I felt no matter how I put it, it all comes down to the fact that it wasn't my normal type of visions. I wasn't sure if that was the future, the past, or the present.

Seth is waiting for me to say something and I do "It wasn't normal. It was like.. that girl.." Seth was trying to make out who I was trying to describe and then it hits him "Ah, are you talking about Fiona?" I stare at him confused, like was I suppose to know who that is. He laughs "Fiona, is the girl you was talking to you. The one you told to move, remember? Yellow shirt and black strips." And than it hits me "That's her!" I yell in a hush tone, so no one can hear me "She was in my vision.. It was like it was her but it wasn't.. She was asking for help.." Seth's look harden "You know we can't get caught up in mortal affairs. It isn't our place and you know why." I felt the seriousness off his voice but I wasn't phased "I'm telling you, that this was just my vision. I'm not saying I'll make it my business to help any mortal." he shakes his head in disapproval "It doesn't matter. Just stay clear of her next time." Before I can unsure him that he is only overreacting, he was already walking away from me.

Lunch time rolled around, fifth period is over. And I'm in the backstair case trying to figure out, what exactly this vision meant for me.

As I'm doing that, Fiona circles around "You've gotta be fucking kidding me." I notice the frustration in her voice but I doubt she meant for it to come out so rude. So I gave her a smile "Well nice to see you too." I say in mocking tone. And I know she noticed it "I didn't know anyone knew about here." she explains. But I look at her as if I was suppose to care weather people knew or not "Well neither did I." I calmly said to her.

I sensed she didn't know what to say, considering the moment of silence. But when I looked at her; I again, felt the urge to want to rip her clothes off and make her mines. I slowly walked to her, I knew she was feeling it too. My hand traveled to her cheeks "You feel it too, don't you." I whisper to her, feeling the space between us, only being 2 inches or less. She closes her eyes, while my other hand travel up her right arm. I was feeling the intense sensation of her skin and it only made me want more. She says in a hush tone "What is this feeling.. Ajar Felon?" I can feel the space between us growing closer and I say in a very calm hush tone "I don't know.. For some reason. I'm drawn to you. I wasn't feeling this way before today.." she opens her eyes quickly and pushes me away. She looks at me confused "Before today?.."

I can feel her body tense up and her confused thoughts spiraling out of control. Maybe I should have done what Seth said. I should keep my distances from her. Whatever this new found connection was; it wasn't proving to be anything good.

What the heck was going on?!

I gathered up my stuff, to make a run for it, turning to her bewildered. I don't know what to do with this feeling. I felt if I stand any longer around her, I would lose my mind.

As I move forth to go passed her, she blocks my way and I looked her intensely.

"You better move.. I don't want to do something that I can't take back later." I say hurriedly. I wanted her to move so I can make a break for it. So I can escape whatever madness this is turning out to be.

She stares at me lost "I know I should let you walk away.. My brain is telling me to let you pass.. But something in me is telling me, to tell you.. to stay." panic began to rise in me. I knew better then anyone right now, that staying was a bad idea. So I pushed her out of my way, making her fall backwards against the wall. She's frozen in shock, but it was better her then me "I'm sorry. But stay away from me." I knew my last words came off a little harsh than I wanted them too. But it was better this way.

Making my way out of the backstair case and out the door, I bumped into Magnolia "Whoa! Slow down rock-star. You'll bump the whole hallway with that speed." I looked at her confused "What are you doing here?" she smiles "Seth told me to keep an eye on you." I glared at her, pushing passed her as she follows along "So what now? Your my babysitter?" I say angrily.

I didn't like the fact Seth didn't trust me enough to hold my own, let alone having to send his sister as a back-up and babysitter. Fiona was nothing but a mortal.

I stopped in my tracks and looked at her "Look Magnolia. I don't know what your brother told you. But I don't need you following me around. And I most defiantly-" glaring at her with anger "Don't need a babysitter." rolling her eyes, she looks at me "I don't care what you want Ajar. My brother is concerned- and like it or not. Your like a brother." she saddens "We're family.. weather of the same clan or not. I'll always look out for you."

I almost feel like a dick for getting mad. I know Seth and Magnolia means well. Shit! I knew better then anyone when Seth gets a bad feeling he acts on those feelings. I knew when I told him about my vision, I felt he was more bothered by it then usually. I wouldn't put it passed him if he was watching Fiona right now either.

Seth liked keeping everything in check. In control where vampire of all kinds are not at the risk of being exposed. And that's where me and him differ.

While he liked controlling the outcome. I let it happen. I know I can't control what happens, let alone stop it. It would be damn stupid of me to even try to otherwise. My dad always made sure I knew that..

Taking a calming breathe, I give Magnolia an apologetic smile "I'm sorry.. I didn't mean to sound like a jerk, Magnolia. Tell you what." I give her my million dollar I got a plan smile "I'll take you clubbing tonight and have a all you can eat buffet." she smiles mischievously "Is Ajar Felon proposing we give into our greatest desires." giving her the same smile "That's exactly what I'm saying."

One thing I know Magnolia loves, is a all you can eat blood frenzy. At least I know, that will keep her in check for tonight so I can go do my own digging for what my vision means.

I just need to see if I can get Seth off my tail for tonight.
