Lara nearly flinched back when RJ reached out to nudge her, but suprisingly, he was too quick. Maybe it was all timing, but she was surprised whenever his skin came in contact with hers. She forgot how warm humans were, and her mouth began to water. But he quickly pulled back, and her eyes met his, panic across her face when he reached back out and grabbed her wrist. She imagined her skin must've felt dead cold, and she knew why he sounded so concerned for her. Lara pulled from his tight grasp with ease and leapt back quickly away from him out of reflex. Lara felt her backside smack into the wall, and a loud banging sound erupted. She knew what happened before she turned to stare at the large hole in the wall where her back was now sitting. Her gaze locked into his eyes, as panic erupted through her. It was completely silent in the room, and all she could hear was his breathing and his heartbeat. |

Seeing Lara's reaction surprised RJ, but seeing the end result put him in a state of shock, awe, and confusion. He stood there, mouth agape and limbs stiff just staring wide-eyed at the hole Lara had created in the wall. RJ had been thrown into walls before, but even his bear of a mother never put a hole in the wall. RJ fought for words and thoughts as he stood there silently, not knowing how to react to what had just happened. His hazel eyes flickered between Lara and the expression on her face, to the hole in the wall and back to Lara. Finally, after standing in shock for a moment, RJ blurted out what he had been waiting to ask since he stepped foot in her room. "Who are you?" |

Lara continued to stare up at RJ, but his reaction scared her. She pulled herself from the hole in the wall, and inspected herself. Her shirt was ripped by her stomach, but not a scratch showed on her stomach. She looked back to RJ. Her eyes were completely black now, and her throat burned with thirst. "What the hell are you talking about?", tears began to form in her eyes. She should've just let that vampire kill her, it would've been easier for the world. And she was just being selfish at the time. "RJ, i'm your cousin, Lara!", a few tears rolled down her pale face, as she stared at her cousin, clawing at herself. |

After seeing Lara's response to his question, RJ felt guilty for asking it. He lowered his head and looked down at his shoes to avoid seeing the tears on Lara's cheeks. The last thing RJ ever wanted to do was hurt his cousin, and that's exactly what he had just done. But at the same time, he felt a sense of relief because his question was honest. He really couldn't tell who Lara was by the way she looked, the way she acted, and definitely not by the hole in the wall. Even though it hurt, RJ knew he had to keep the honest streak going, and tell Lara exactly what he was talking about. "You're not the Lara I remember." He replied, looking back up at the girl. "I mean, the new hair, and getting rid of your glasses and everything is great, but the Lara I know would have greeted me with a hug after being in another country all summer." RJ paused and took a breath, glancing back at the hole in the wall. "And I have no idea what to think of that." He said, gesturing to it. |

]Lara stared down RJ, her eyes black as coal, and she stepped closer to him, then she was a few inches from his face, and she stared down into his eyes. "I've changed...", she sneered, "And unfortunately, there is nothing you, or I can do about.", she smirked again, and breathed a couple of more words, her voice was angelic, and perfect, but still full of venom. "Got it?", and she placed her hand on his chest, and began to push him backwards until she opened the door, and pushed him out into the hallway, careful not to topple him over. "I've changed, RJ,", she repeated, "Don't we all? Sometimes for the best, and sometimes...", her black eyes glistened, "for the worst", she grinned, exposing her fangs. "How about you just ask your mummy about that?", she closed her lips, and another tear fell from her eye, and she quickly whiped it away. "Remember? I would die...", the venom left her voice, and she was barely aware of the feresome moodswing she was having, "I love you, cous.", then, the door slammed, and she threw herself to her silky bed, regretting ever becoming a vampire. |

Lara was laying on her silk sheeted bed, stomach down, and legs folded behind her in the air. She had her sleek, long hair pulled back into a tight ponytail to keep if from her eyes, and she was staring down at a book she had bought to read over winter break. Winter break seemed rather boring, and she just stayed in her room for the most part, making sure not to get involved in any more drama. Just when she was getting to a climatic part of her fiction, her cellphone began to sound and vibrate. She had bought it for her graduating year. When she checked the screen, she didn't reconize the number, but she hit "answer" and brought it up to her ear. "Hello?" Lara breathed. |

RJ was relieved to hear Lara pick up. Her tone of voice was normal, which helped him to relax even more given the situation. "Lara?" He asked, his own voice taking on somewhat of a frantic tone. Before he continued, he took a deep breath to clear his mind and calm his nerves. He didn't want to startle her. "Lara? It's RJ." He said finally. |

Lara was excited to hear her cousin's voice and she marked her page and closed the book. "Hey cuz! How's it goin'?" she grinned and sat up on her bed, crossing her legs beneath her. |

RJ turned around to look behind him, pushing the phone closer to his face as he watched the workers of the Ministry walking all around him. It was always busy there at the Ministry, taking care of matters in the Wizarding world - not the best place for a sixteen year old boy to be living. "Umm, it's going alright, I guess." He replied, turning back around to face the wall. "How are - how are you?" He asked. |

Even through the phone, Lara could hear the hustle around RJ, and she frowned, though answered his question, although a little relunctantly. "Um, pretty bored, actually. Not much I can do during the day." she laughed a little at that one, and tucked another strand of hair behind her ear. |

RJ smiled lightly at Lara's joke. It was refreshing to hear something humorous, especially from her. However, it was a serious matter, and so RJ couldn't hold his smile long. A grim expression grew on his face, and his tone of voice became a little more ... Concerned at best. "Hey Lara, where are you right now?" He asked quietly. |

Lara frowned again, and took a deep breath, then brought her hand up to touch her fangs slightly. "Locked up in my room at the apartment." she closed her eyes and put her hand back in her lap. "Why, what's going on, RJ?" worry began to tang her voice. |

RJ bit his lip while he thought of what to say next. He didn't want to scare Lara, but it was a scary situation, and he needed her to be as far away from it as she could possibly be. "Just ... Something has happened ..." RJ paused, trying to think of how to treat the conversation delicately, but decided that it would be best to tell her straight forward. "I think you need to get out of there. Do you think you could spend the rest of winter break with Professor Adkins?" |

Lara's eyes widened at RJ's request, and she kind of scoffed at it. "My aunt and I don't have a normal relationship. And I don't think i'm in any sort of danger, unless you bring werewolves into the situation..." she bit her own lip as she thought of her encounter with Cassandra Harper. |

RJ sighed, and closed his eyes for a moment. "I don't care how your relationship is, Lara, you need to get away from the apartment for a while." He said, his tone of voice strict as if he was now her father, rather than her cousin. The fact that she mentioned a werewolf was interested, considering that Ministry officials listed Adrain Sohmer's cause of death as "a bite to the throat." it was all too confusing and all too ironic. Though RJ wanted to say something else, he couldn't bring himself to at the moment, so he stood there quietly waiting for Lara to respond. |
