I flew down the stairs and caught Ruby, Matt and Caleb just in time.
"Guys, please wait! I'm hungry!"
I heard Matt and Caleb chuckle.
"Five bucks." Matt muttered.
I landed right in front of him and stared at him accusingly.
"Five bucks fot what?"
You'd think that after living with me for over 300 years that Matt would have learned by now not to bet on me, I got rather hurt and when or if, I found out about it, usually someone lost an arm... or at the very least, broke a few bones.
"Noth-" Matt began but Caleb cut across him.
"We were betting on whether you would change your mind and come join us on our Human Huntung trip..." He trailed off at the furious look that had appeared upon my face.
"You bet that I would feed on humans? Even though you know exactly how I feel-"
"No, no, Ava! You got it all wrong. I was betting that you wouldn't come along and I never actually said that you would feed off them, just that you would join us."

After picking up my journal for about the millionth time today, I finally began writing in my journal about today's exciting and terrifying events.

Note to self: Get new housemates
Today, is just like every other day. Never see the sunrise but see it set... from behind curtains. I hate being a vampire but not enough to get myself killed. I don't know what to do anymore. I have to admit, there are some perks but mostly disadvantages, I'm over 300 years old and I am still trying to control the lure of human blood, will it ever fade? I doubt it which is was scares me more than anything, what if, I turn into the monstor I fear myself to be? I can't- won't let that happen, I have to keep my humanity.
On a much lighter and exremely nerve shocking note: Amun and Ruby are finally engadged! I know! They've been dating for what, 500 years? And Amun finally popped the question this morning. Ruby was over the moon as were we all, well, except Matthew at first but he's alright with it now. Little Rayne was ecstatic, it was very funny, she had never been to a wedding before she told us, not...

A Vampire, the living dead, the hunter.
That was me and always would be. Never again could I feel the sun on my face, see the light blue of the morning sky, never again be
around civilisation well, at least not without me being a major hazard.
It had been just over three hundred years since I was turned. I'd learned to accept what I was, although I didn't like it. All these humans read books on vampires, watch the shows and yet, still know nothing about us. They are brainwashed to believe that there are lots of us who do want to be good, be human again. They couldn't be more wrong. I've only ever met one... me.
I get on with other vampires, just not as well as I would if we were human. We'll do what we have to. It's one of the rules.
Yes, there are rules to being a vampire and plenty at that.
I looked up to regain my original train of thought.
"Hey, Lily!" I yelled.
My best friend... well, we weren't really best friends, or friends at that but we got along best with each other compared to the others but we weren't friends and probably never would be, we'd only known each other for three months....
