My vision began to haze over, like a cloudy film had covered my eyes. I began to panic, clawing at my face and rubbing my eyes frantically, but the haze did not disappear. Not only was I lost, wondering in a city that I didn't know, with no recollection of how I got there- or anything for that matter except for one name, mine- Alice. Suddenly, as soon as it had started, the haze began to clear and slowly my sight began to return, but it was not the sight I had last seen, instead I was in a room, a diner or a restaurant. The walls were panelled and the floor was tiled and stained. I continued to take in my surroundings, cheap red leather chairs in booths and windows showing a wet landscape.

I seemed to be sitting next to a counter on a stool with matching fake leather to the chairs in the booths, the place was half full with people who looked tired and bored, I wasn't worried about their presence as I had no willingness to hurt them. I knew I was different to them, the man who said he had saved me, back at the asylum had told me I was a vampire, a blood drinker. Though I was attracted to the blood of humans I could control myself and felt better suited to the blood of animals when humans were unavailable, they did not tempt me. I was impressed however by the speed and the powerful strength I had which was enough to pull a grown man to the ground with only the touch of a finger.

Just as I began to stand the door of the diner swung open and a familiar sent filled my nostrils and I matched it with a handsome blonde man coming through the door. His black eyes gave him away, as well as his overwhelming beauty- another one of my kind. I tried to avoid them as much as possible as I was much smaller and new to the immortal life I lived. However I was surprised to find my body walking towards his, a smile on my lips not matching his own bewildered, confused face. With no intention I spoke to him, "You've kept me waiting a long time. "I'm sorry, ma'am," he said, ducking his head like a good Southern gentleman, and then smiled at me.

I held out my hand without meaning to and he took it willingly and then the cloudy film returned. Once again I let out a scream, rubbing my eyes frantically until it began to clear. I sighed with relief to see the beautiful man who had smiled at me and taken my hand, but instead I was looking back at the dull scene I had first come across, the smoky dark back street, surrounded by dirty brick walls and rubbish.

The body of a man was at my feet and I felt better that I had hunted. Without looking at his face I covered him with rubbish and hid the evidence of my deed. As I walked back out the alley I thought of the vision, the premonition that I had seen and though it had never happened before, I knew it was true.

I didn't know who the beautiful vampire was, but I did know he was looking for me and that I had to find him.

The dead girl stared at me. Her eyes stilled mirrored the fear I had felt her feel. She wasn't staring though, she couldn't I had killed her. I had snapped her neck and drunk her blood through a gash I had made with my teeth in her neck. The emotions and feelings I felt with her were impossible to cope with, the lust she first had felt for me when my eyes met her, the happiness she felt as I came towards her and placed my hands on her neck and inclined my head to it, the increase in her pulse as my lips contacted her warm skin and the sudden fright and bewilderment as she felt my teeth graze and then pierce her skin.

The emotions only worsened with the extent of the attack but none could be bad as her last feeling as she yearned for death to engulf her and the last feeling of loss and hopelessness. No attack had had such an effect on me, even through all I had witness and done during my vampire life. I began to walk away from the disposed body, towards my companion Peter and his partner Charlotte. I felt their empathy for me, they knew what would happen now, and they had seen my stages of depression and my yearning for something better.

"Jasper," Charlotte said moving closer towards me.

I put my hands up and shook my head, "I have to leave."

"We know," Peter said, wrapping his arm around Charlotte, "But Jasper, leaving won't fix things, you will be alone we won't be able to help you when you're depressed like this."

"I know, and thankyou for what you have done, you have shown me better ways, but I need to be by myself, I'm not helping anyone," I said.

"Goodbye Jasper," they said in unison.

I nodded and walked away from them, out of the secluded park we had come to hunt in and then I walked, for days, I walked through states, only stopping to hunt and then I pressed on fuelled by the depression and remorse I felt. I didn't know what or who I was looking for, but I knew I sought for something better, wether it was living or in my own case, dead!

I tried to kill less often, but I would only get thirsty and give in and I began to find self-discipline- I was proud. Charlotte and Peter were right, the depression began to grow worse as I continued to feel the horror of my prey and I promised myself that I would find a better way of living, or of dying. After weeks of walking aimlessly, searching for something that I didn't even know existed I found myself somewhere in Philadelphia standing in the middle of a storm, rain plummeting onto my cool, white skin, though I barley felt it.

I suddenly felt a feeling of humour and looked up to see a passing woman with an umbrella smirking at me but the smile was mocking rather than the usual smiles of flirtation usually thrown in my direction. It occurred to me that I would attract attention, simply wallowing in my misery, outside in the middle of a storm. My eyes were black and confirmed my severe thirst, and I did not want to provoke any humans to come too close to me that they would be in severe danger.

My black eyes wondered to the closest building, a half empty, tacky looking diner on the side of the road and I hurried across the road, holding my breath as I passed the still staring woman. As I opened the door a smell crept through my nostrils and I recognised it immediately, though I wasn't afraid, I could handle any northern vampire, they were nothing compared to the vicious southerners. She was there- expecting me, naturally, she hoped down from the high stool at the counter as soon as I walked in and came directly toward me. It shocked me. I was not sure if she meant to attack. But she was smiling. And the emotions that were emanating from her were like nothing I'd ever felt before.

"You've kept me waiting a long time," she said.

I ducked my head and smiled up at her, "I'm sorry ma'am."

She held out her hand and I took it without stopping to make sense of what I was doing. For the first time in almost a century, I felt hope.

I was surprised to see the familiar diner. Weeks had passed since my first vision and it continued to happen, sometimes about the handsome man in the diner, sometimes about which way to go to find him, good hunting places and a new vision I had started to see after the familiar sight of cloudy film, was of five pairs of topaz coloured eyes on beautiful, smiling vampires and then of me and the beautiful vampire walking together, hand in hand towards them, as they explained to us that there was another way, that their golden eyes proved that it was true and that animals were a supplement for humans.

I shook my head to try and forget the memory. I was more than certain that this diner was the one I was searching for. My visions had led me to this place and as I walked in and saw the familiar interior I smiled to myself. I sat on the same red stool from my very first vision had shown me weeks before now.

I sat there for the rest of the afternoon and evening and even the night, never looking away from the door. By mid morning it began to rain and the diner began to fill. I ignored the plump woman serving at the counter who had offered me over a dozen cups of coffee and who eyed me suspiciously. She constantly asked me if there was someone I needed to call and that a pretty girl like me should have someplace to go but I just waved my hand and mumbled something about waiting for someone.

By late afternoon my thoughts were interrupted by the laughter of two young girls pointing out the window. Through the dripping window I saw a man with blonde hair leaning against a street lamp, he seemed completely at ease by the storm raging around him. I continued to watch him, after waiting in the diner I began to doubt that the handsome vampire would ever come through the door. The man straightened himself up and I saw him walk past a woman with an umbrella and walk in the direction of the diner. I shrugged and began to stand, my knees stiff. Suddenly the door swung open and a cool breeze rushed through the diner and swarmed through my short hair. I looked at the culprit and smiled. My vision had not done his beauty justice. I walked towards him and still smiling I frowned at him, "You've kept me waiting a long time.

Just like my vision he ducked his head, his wind-swept blond hair dripping water crystals onto the cheap tile floor, "I'm sorry, ma'am."

He smiled at me and mine broadened. I held out my hand and he took it, his hand wrapping sensually around mine and we left. I kept stealing glances at his beauty, only to find his eyes meeting mine. His hand tightened occasionally on mine, and his thumb rubbed against my hand. "Where to?" the handsome vampire whispered only to me.

"Anywhere but here," I smiled, bouncing alongside him.

"Sounds good to me." I continued to explain to him about my visions and he in turn told me about his own power of reading, experiencing and controlling the emotions around him. For once I felt like I belonged, someone else had a 'power' a 'talent' other than me. I continued to tell him about the vampires with the Golden eyes, the two females and three men I had seen, and their eating habits.

"I can hardly believe such an existence is possible!" He said shaking his head in disbelief.

"It is though." I pressed.

"Yes, I'll always believe you," he soothed, squeezing my hand.

We continued to walk through the town and down the main street, the rain still pouring and falling onto our faces, but we didn't care.

"I've been searching for you," he finally said, kissing my cheek.

"I've been waiting and searching for you too-" I cut off, not knowing his name.

"Jasper," he said matter-a-factually.

"Alice," I answered, smiling.

"My Alice," Jasper said, nuzzling into my hair, "All of my life I've been in hiding, wishing, hoping that there was someone just like you and now that you're here, now that I've found you, I know you're the one to pull me through," he whispered into my hair and then inclining his head to kiss my throat then moving his head a little higher to press his lips against mine.
