Carmilla’s grip around LaF’s throat was then about to crush their windpipe when Laura froze them. In that moment both Laf and Carm’s eyes locked and they didn’t need words. The phrase ‘what the hell’ was apparent from the two of them. Carm fought with all her strength to move but it was futile. Only when Laura released them could she finally take her hand away and let LaF go free.
Both of them stood in front of the fridge watching Laura demolish the apple like she’d been starved for weeks. “Okay, she can freeze us. That’s not a vampire thing is it?”
“Nope. If a vampire is old enough they can get certain powers but Laura has just turned.” Carm sighed. “I don’t know what I’ve done to her but she doesn’t seem to be a vampire.”
LaF nodded. “I hear ya. She’s got a heartbeat and look.” LaF pointed at Laura’s face while the both of them still kept their distance “She’s not pale anymore.” They stopped looking at Laura for a moment and watched Carmilla. LaF could see she was hurting, only knowing this through spending so much time trapped with her. Carmilla was hard to read but LaF worked it out not as good as Laura but possibly second best. “We’ll figure this out. Laura will be fine.” LaF didn’t know how comfort so gave an awkward pat to Carm’s arm.
The fact Carm didn’t flinch means she accepted LaF’s comforting. “Can you stay with her?”
“Sure thing. Perry is bringing a bunch of equipment from my lab so we can run some tests. Where you going?”
Carmilla didn’t answer. She left them in the kitchen to get her leather jacket from the living room. LaF followed. “Why do I get the feeling you’re about to do something stupid?”
“Stupid is not knowing something like this would happen. Laura’s unique, I should have known turning her wouldn’t be that easy.” The vampire slipped on her jacked and tied her hair up out the way. “Prey no one gets in my way.” Carm growled and headed for the front door. Only Perry came bursting in carrying and over the top amount of suitcases and equipment. The volume of luggage completely blocking them all in.
Perry took off her coat, waiting for the two them to help bring the cases in. “Sorry I’m late. There was a lot to pack. I’m lucky I made it in time. Where’s Laura?” She left the corridor completely blocked and followed LaF’s finger which was pointing to the kitchen area. “Laura?” To Perry Laura didn’t look any different. The only thing that shocked her was the amount of mess she had made in the kitchen. “This is hardly the time to eat and since when did you make this much mess.” She stood next to her friend and started picking up and cleaning the side. “LaF left in such a hurry. I wondered what the fuss was about. Glad you’re okay though.”
She then lowered her voice into a whisper. “Did you propose yet?” Perry was too excited to notice that Laura had a ring on her finger.
