A Blood Sucking Story

Chapter 1

I ran up the stairs to my room and shut my door. I through my backpack to my desk and slid down the door.

I grabbed onto my chest and held tightly.

My pulse ran faster and faster. Blood rushing through my body.

I tried to stand up straight, and si I did. I walked to my mirror, nearly knocking down everything in my way.

I put my hands on the nightstand and looked at myself in the mirror.

My eyes flipped from Green, blue, red and purple every second.

I shut my eyes and counted to 5.

1

5

I opened my eyes again and looked into the mirror.

My eyes were Brown again. I must be having illusions.

I backed up from the mirror and fell to the floor in relief.

I put my hand over my chest. Heart rate is perfectly fine.

I shook my head and took my phone out. The second It was out of my pocket it was ringing.

I through my phone to my bed half scared to death.

I took a deep breath.

I got up and went to my bed before the ringing would stop.

"Hello?" I said.

"Hey," the voice said.

Oh my Hades! I thought.

"Hey Cory!" I said.

"The usual?" Cory asked.

I looked out my window bitting my lips.

I cant go. I seriously cant go.

"The usual."

I changed into my sweats and uggs and put a sweater on.

I ran down the stairs before my mother can say anything and I grabbed my beanie hat from the coat rack and left.

Cory; You here? 

Me; soon. Ill just get my cofee and im coming. 

Cory; no need to. Got it for you. 

Me; oh Cory! Ur so stupid! Thanks BFF. 

Cory; :) ttyl!!

I hadnt replied to the text and just walked on the sidewalk slowly to the usual spot.

***

I layed down on the grass in the middle of the forest. Cory layed next to me and put my cofee beside me.

I looked to my side. "Cory," I said.

"Yes?" He said with his eyes closed.

I found Cory's hand and I held it tight and told him, "Your the best friend Anyone can ever have."

I sat up still holding his hand and took my cofee. I put the cofee mug on my lips and started to drink.

"Can I ask you to keep a secret?" He said.

I crossed my fingers. ".Every secret is kept and seeled in these lips." I said tapping my lips with my cofee in hand. "Like the fact you still wear trucks on your boxers. And your afraid of the dark because of ghosts and everything. And-"

"Okay! I get it!" Cory said.

I put my cofee down.

I looked over at his face. It was flaming red.

"I... I um..." Cory scratched his head. "I dont know how to say this... Umm..."

I felt a buzz on my waist. I looked at my waist then at Cory.

"Text me what you wanted to say," I told him. "Mama has got herslef some fresh meat to eat." I said licking my lips.

He laughed as I walked out of the forrest and walked home.

"Athena Reese!" My mother said. "Where have you been up till now?!"

"The usual," I said taking my sweater off.

"You are lucky that Cory was with you!" She said. Then she paused. "He was right?"

"Of course mom!" I said. "Cory is like a brother. Hes the only person I can trust. Plus he makes great cofee."

Bump.

Uh oh...

I ran up to my room quickly. I locked the door and went to my mirror.

My eyes changed colors every second again. Red, purple, green and blue.

My heart rate started to go as fast as a roller coaster.

I looked down to my nightstand and blinked a few times.

I had then looked back in the mirror but my eyes were still changing.

As I looked closer and closer into the mirror the faster the colors change and my heart rate slowed down bit by bit.

I backed away from the mirror.

What the hell is going on?! I thought.

Knock Knock.

"Are you okay?" My mother said. "Im sorry I was hard on you."

"N-No-No its okay mom," I said. "Im okay thanks."

"Well super is ready for whenever you want to eat." She said at the closed door.

I got up and took a quick look into a mirror.

Brown eyes. I must be halusinating.

I opened the door. "Lets go eat some bloody steaks," I said rubbing my hands and licking my lips.

***

After super I cleaned the dirty plates and put them away.

Minutes after my dad came in.

"How was your day Athena?" He said grabbing my head and giving it a kiss.

I gave him a tight hug. "Great daddy," I said. "Thanks."

I let go and looked at my father.

"Jack!" My mother yelled. "I AM alive, too, you know!"

"Oh Judy!" My father said. "Of course I do! I was just-" he paused. "-I didnt see you. I thought you went shopping."

My dad walked to my mom and spread his arms wide.

My mom crossed her arms and shook her haid. "Not today Jack. Not today."

I rolled my eyes. Old people.

My dad and mom turned around and looked at me very slowly.

And strangly I can add.

"Your 16th birthday is coming soon," my mother said.

"And by soon you meen next week...?" I said to her.

"Anything special happening?" My father continued.

"No. I want to keep it on the low," I said. "I dont want to make a big deal out of something that happens every year, on the same day."

I took one last look at my parents and went upstairs to my room.
