Well, here I am. And there's Gerard, right on time. I'm using my dad's laptop again, and- oh, Chris's cueing me to come and talk with her. My name's "Juliet", by the way. Sort of like Julia from 1984, only more sophisticated (and definitely prettier).
Wow. Ten minutes of conversation and I've only just managed to slip away. I'm sort of scared- Gerard's really nice. Like, decent. Not the sort of guy who'd spirit away your sister or seduce your friend. And he loves 1984. *sigh* If I didn't hate the dude so much, I'd fall in love with him...
Okay, more talk. Gerard's favorite movie is Interview with the Vampire (I can see why Elaine loved him so much...) and he's a fan of theoretical Communism on a small scale. Like, gypsy camps and hippie communes. That makes me wonder- is that where Elaine is? Some sort of cult-y commune? I don't know. Oh, wait- they're beckoning me over again.
It's ten minutes later, just to let you know. We've all got frappucinos from Starbucks, and Chris wants to go browsing for new vampire lit with Gerard. (It's so not her thing. She's a fantasy girl all the way. Probably just indulging him.) I'm going with them just to browse for myself. I've made Juliet a fan of Anne Rice, just to fit in with the moment. Luckily Elaine went through a Vampire Chronicles phase before Twilight. See you people soon...
OMG.
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!!!
It's happened again.
I just turned away for a few moments, browsing the back of a Vampire Knight manga, and then I turned to ask Chris what she thought...
...and she was gone.
Like, really gone.
Disappeared. Just like Elaine.
I've searched the store and I can't find a trace of her other than an empty frappucino cup. Of course Gerard's scuttled by now. I don't know what to do, but I do know one thing for certain:
When I find him, I'm going to kill him.
