bonus material: Waking Up at the End of the World
Vampires Will Never Hurt You [My Chemical Romance]
“How long have you known Gerard?” Bob asked wryly. Taylor figured it was an inside joke.
Pulp Fiction [Motion City Soundtrack]
Taylor nodded tersely. She wondered if she should be taking notes. This was probably important information, but seriously? If it really did apply to her, she could always ask again. But she doubted that it applied to anything outside of fantasy novels and those B-rated horror films Chad liked to watch.
The Test [The Academy Is...]
“There’s no such thing as vampires,” Taylor said. She then took what was left of her mocha and stalked out the door.
Abby Never [Mike Lombardo]
“It’s a school night,” her father needlessly reminded her.
“I know it’s a school night,” she said, looking pointedly at Frank and Bob. “I’m doing some last minute prep for a presentation tomorrow. I’ll be home as soon as we finish up here. Which will be soon.”
Juste un Automate [Que le Spectacle Commence]
Taylor spent the next day being a horrible student. Instead of paying attention to her classes, she read Bob’s journal.
Ergen Diado [Yoshida Brothers]
“We’ll teach you hand-to-hand,” Bob explained. “But it takes time.”
Taylor nodded. “I’ve seen The Karate Kid.”
Frank nodded sagely. “Your life is going to feel like a bad ‘80’s montage.”
I Need A Break... But I'd Rather Have A Breakthrough [The Rocket Summer]
“Didn’t you practice?” Frank asked.
Taylor wiped her hair out of her eyes a little bit fiercer than she would have normally. “When?” she demanded. “During history?”
D is for Dangerous [Allison Iraheta]
The thing was, Taylor really liked Chad. He was a little weird, a little socially stupid, and a lot hot. Taylor liked to focus on that last part, despite its vapidity, but she also enjoyed that she could hold a conversation with him that had some depth. Although Chad’s favorite subject was basketball. Taylor had learned how to lead Chad away from that topic, which was a highly valuable skill.
Razorblade Limeade [Evan Taubenfeld]
When they sat down in Troy’s secret spot, Taylor said, “I don’t think we should see each other anymore.”
“What?” Chad asked. “Is this because I tried to grab your boobs?”
“Charming,” Taylor said wryly. “But no.”
“Oh,” Chad said. “Was it because I tried to grab your thighs?”
Taylor gave Chad a severe look. “I need to spend more time to study. It’s really difficult to get into Yale. Even a four-oh won’t put me on their radar. We’re still friends, though.”
I Ain't Afraid of No Ghosts [Ghostbusters]
“He’s trying to take over the world,” Taylor repeated incredulously. She might have misheard it the first time Frank had said it, but this was no mistake. “That’s actually done? I thought that was more like a bad SciFi show thing.”
Sunday, Bloody Sunday [John Lennon]
“What deaths and disappearances?” Taylor asked.
“Don’t you watch the news?” Frank asked. “Or read the papers?”
Thriller in Love [MJ&Beyonce]
The chapter in the book Frank had her look at was about werewolves. Vampires were enough; Taylor didn’t want to think about werewolves.
Oh Oh Oh Sexy Vampire [Fright Ranger]
“There’s no such thing as vampires,” Taylor said. She then took what was left of her mocha and stalked out the door.
