Monsters

Chapter Three

"No, I; hear voices sometimes," I say ashamed but I still trusted him.

"I hear voices too!" He says a bit too happy for the conversation we were happening.

Great share your craziness with the demon vampire.

"Does yours listen to you? Mine don't they just say things that hurt me." He says and I lean against his shoulder.

"Mines just an annoying little shit," I tell him chuckling softly and he turns to me. He smiles softly before looking at me.

"Oh, you're head." He said pointing at my head and I remember the kick jack planted on my head.

I touch it and it stings.

"I can heal you." He says and I turn to him.

Sure, death heals all wounds.

"I know I can, I did it once before. I think it's my saliva. so when;" He says and I feel like I had an idea.

To heal any wounds left by their feeding, to discredit anyone who tells.

"I promise, I won't hurt you." He says and I nod.

"I trust you," I tell him and he nods before licking my head softly.

I felt a slight tickle as his tongue ran across my head.

He's gonna eat you.

"Haze look;" Danny says and stops at the worst possible moment.

He then did his signature turn around and act like he didn't see anything. Tell Mark and make him give me the 'we love and care about you' speech.

I guess pushing Ax away now would be pointless considering the damage done.

When he finishes he lays back on the bed before instantly falling asleep and I touch my head feeling the cut gone.

Now to deal with that other nagging problem.

Is that supposed to me?

"Yes," I say walking into the bathroom and grabbing the pills with my name on them.

Or here me out. You could just give me control.

He says pissing me off.

"No Ace! you are not getting control again." I say.

Why not no one died.

"No Ace, but Jack is still trying to kill me."

Awe, Jack, he's cute.

"Go to hell, or at least the worst part of my psyche," I say tossing back two pills and drinking water.

I woke up to a knock on my door and just guess who it was.

Ding-Ding Ding, Mark.

Mark walked in before stopping and looking at the sleeping guy in my bed.

"We need to talk." He says quietly but sternly and I get up and follow him to the porch.

"Ok let me explain," I said and he just looked at me.

"Haze I think it's time I've told you the truth." He says before turning to me.

We made eye contact and suddenly his eyes went from their natural brown to a bright crimson.

"There's a reason you trust him so much and is so comfortable around him."

I take a deep breath.

Ok, my dad's a vampire.

Oh my god, my dad's a vampire.

Ok, this normal right?

Yeah totally normal.

It's not like thirty minutes ago I found out vampires were even real. But ok my dad's a vampire.

OK, so I guess this is better than my dad being a murderer or Pedophile.

Yeah, I think so.

So my dad is a vampire.

"Does Danny know?"

Seriously num nuts they've been married longer than you've been alive and you think he felt more comfortable telling you.

Oh, not you again.

"Actually he's a vampire too."

I inhale again.

I just sit there listening to the laughing in my head, while freaking out and wondering if I'll die if I double-dose myself on my meds.

Oh, god my dads are vampires.

Ok, what's important is that I don't freak out.

You're gonna freak out.

Wait. This explains so much.

Their wine I'm still too young to drink.

How Danny never ages and how he has two weird freckles on his neck that look like bites.

Maybe you're just stupid for not figuring it out.

Shut up asshole you didn't know either.

"Tell your friend he can stay but if he hurts you or your sister. I'll have to kill him." He says standing up and patting me on my shoulder.

"Miami doesn't know. I'd like to keep it that way." He says and I nod.

Ok time for a nap.

I woke up an hour later to a knock on the door and opened it to Danny holding a tray of pizza.

"So Mark said he told you." He said sitting it on my desk.

"Yeah," I say looking away and he crouches down to me like he did that day only now his blue eyes were crimson and his smile held fangs.

"He said you took it well which only means you were freaking out in your head. We'll talk more once he wakes up." He says ruffling my hair causing me to smile.

"Well it was kind of a shock but I still love you and you'll still be my dads," I tell him and he smiles widely before standing up.

"Also, dad." I choke out before looking at the still sleeping figure in my bed.

"I'm gay," I tell him and he only kisses my head.

"Well it's kind of a shock but we still love you and you'll still be our son." He says mirroring my words and I just hug him.

"I love you, Dad," I say and he hugs me back.

"I love you too."

The moment he left I turned to Ax before shaking him awake.

"My dads want to talk to us," I say handing him a slice of pizza.

"So turns out my dads are vampires too," I say and his eyes light up.

"I've never met other vampires before. Not since my parents." He says and I smile.
