6 Vampires Are Cute

Chapter 6 Vampires Are Cute Mr. Granite didn't have the chance to teach his math lesson, because it was time for lunch. We walked single file to the vomitorium. Neil the nude kid was the line leader. I sat with the guys, and we were talking about Halloween. We were all going as superheroes. I would be Batman. Ryan would be Superman. Michael would be Spider-Man. Neil would be the Invisible Man. "Who do you think would win in a fight?" Michael asked. "Superman or Batman?"

格拉尼特先生没有机会教他的数学课，因为该吃午饭了。 我们排成纵队向体育馆走去。 尼尔，那个裸体小孩是领班。 我和他们坐在一起，讨论万圣节的事。 我们都是超级英雄。 我会成为蝙蝠侠。瑞恩会是超人。 迈克尔会是蜘蛛侠。 尼尔将扮演隐形人。 “你认为打架谁会赢？”迈克尔问道。 “超人还是蝙蝠侠？”

"Superman would win," said Ryan. "He could burn Batman up with his heat vision in a second." "No way," I told him. "Batman would pull out a little mirror, and the heat vision would bounce back and burn Superman alive." "Superman is invulnerable to heat,"

“超人会赢的，”瑞恩说。 “他可以在一秒钟内用他的热视觉把蝙蝠侠烧死。” “不可能，”我告诉他。“蝙蝠侠会拿出一面小镜子，热视觉会反弹回来，把超人活活烧死。” “超人对热是无懈可击的。”

Ryan told me. "Not if it comes from his own eyes," I insisted. "It would kill him." "Would not." "Would too." We went back and forth like that for a while. Andrea and her girly friends were at the next table, listening to our important discussion. "Boys are dumbheads," said Andrea. "Oh, yeah?" I said. "What are you dressing up as for Halloween? Beach Blanket Barbie?" "No," Andrea replied. "I'm going as Steven Spielberg." What?! "Who's Steven Spielberg?" asked Neil the nude kid. "He's a famous movie director," Andrea told us. "I take a moviemaking class after

瑞恩告诉我的。“如果是他亲眼看到的，就不会。”我坚持说。 “那会杀了他的。”“不会。” “会。”我们这样来来回回聊了一会儿。 安德里亚和她的女朋友们在邻桌，听着我们的重要讨论。 “男孩子都是傻瓜，”安德烈说。 “哦,是吗?”我说。“你万圣节要打扮成什么样子？” 沙滩毯芭比娃娃？”“不，”安德烈回答。 “我要扮成史蒂文·斯皮尔伯格。” 什么? !“谁是史蒂文·斯皮尔伯格？”裸体小孩尼尔问。 “他是一位著名的电影导演，”安德里亚告诉我们。 “之后我会去上电影制作课

school. My parents even let me use their video camera so I can make my own movies. We're going to put them on YouTube." "You should make a movie about Miss Mary," said Michael. "It could be a horror movie." "Yeah," Neil said. "She looks like a vampire." "Maybe she really is a vampire," I whispered to everybody. "Did you ever think of that? She dresses all in black. She wears black makeup. She's got a pet bat. She even eats blood pudding!" "Wow!" said Ryan. "I think you might be right, A.J.!" "Stop trying to scare Emily," Andrea told me. "I'm scared," said Emily, looking all worried.

学校。我父母甚至让我用他们的摄像机，这样我就可以自己拍电影了。 我们要把它们放到YouTube上。” “你应该拍一部关于玛丽小姐的电影，”迈克尔说。 “这可能是一部恐怖电影。” “是的，”尼尔说。“她看起来像个吸血鬼。” “也许她真的是一个吸血鬼，”我低声对大家说。 “你想过吗？” 她一身黑。她化着黑色的妆。 她有一只宠物蝙蝠。她甚至吃血布丁！”“哇！”瑞恩说。 “我想你可能是对的，A.J.!”“别吓唬艾米丽了，”安德里亚告诉我。 “我很害怕，”爱米丽说，看上去很担心。

"Miss Mary probably lives in a cave and sleeps hanging upside down from the ceiling," I said. "Then she goes out at night and bites people on the neck and drinks their blood." "We've got to do something!" Emily yelled, and then she went running out of the room. Sheesh, get a grip! That girl is such a crybaby. "I like vampires," Andrea said. "I saw this movie about a vampire. He was really handsome, and all the girls fell in love with him. He looked a little like Zack." "Why would girls fall in love with a guy who bites them on the neck and drinks their blood?" I asked. "Because he's cute!" Andrea said. "Like Zack." "You think Zack is cute?" I snorted.

“玛丽小姐可能住在一个山洞里，睡在天花板上倒挂着，”我说。 “然后她晚上出去咬人的脖子，喝他们的血。” “我们必须做点什么！”艾米丽喊道，然后她跑出了房间。 嘿，控制一下！那个女孩真是个爱哭鬼。 “我喜欢吸血鬼，”安德里亚说。 “我看过一部关于吸血鬼的电影。 他真的很帅，所有的女孩都爱上了他。 他看起来有点像扎克。” “为什么女孩子会爱上一个咬脖子喝她们血的男人？”我问。 “因为他很可爱！”安德里亚说。 “就像扎克。”“你觉得扎克很可爱吗？”我哼了一声。

"Arlo, I think you're jealous!" said Andrea, all smiley. My face started to feel warm. "I am not jealous!" I told her. "If you ask me, Zack looks more like a zombie than a vampire anyway." "Oooooh!" Ryan said. "A.J. is jealous because Andrea thinks Zack is cute. He must be in love with her!" "When are you gonna get married?" asked Michael. If those guys weren't my best friends, I would hate them.

“阿乐，我觉得你嫉妒了！”安德烈笑着说。 我的脸开始感到温暖。 “我没有嫉妒！”我告诉了她。 “如果你问我，我觉得扎克看起来更像僵尸，而不是吸血鬼。” “嗡嗡!”瑞恩说。“A.J. 很嫉妒，因为安德里亚觉得扎克很可爱。 他一定是爱上她了！”“你打算什么时候结婚？”迈克尔问。 如果他们不是我最好的朋友，我会讨厌他们的。
