Blood Thick

Part One

"Phil, you're so pale today." Dan sayed as he got out of bed. "Where were you last night, I was lonely," Dan asked.

"I...I...I was out, ya know, at my mum's house for her birthday." Phil said as he tried to hide the bite marks. Phil knew that if Dan were to find out he would kill him. The constant thumping of blood Phil heard coming from Dan's veins was very intriguing; but Dan was his best friend and he couldn't turn him. Phil walked into the kitchen for breakfast, but nothing in the pantry would taste as good as warm thick blood to his ice cold teeth, not even Dans cereal. But he couldn't, Phil knew he wasn't a monster and he couldn't hurt a sole.

"Take of you jacket it is really hot in here." Dan said to Phil.

"No thanks, I'm cold." Phil lied, pulling up his collar. It was going to be hard keeping this up forever, Dan was going to have to find out sooner or later. But by then he might be fine with it, even though he is a vampire hunter. Pasta dinners were going to be hard with the garlic bread and all, but he would have to make it work.

"Phil, what's been going on with you lately, you've been acting weird." Dan said as he walked into the bedroom. "

"Nothing, I just think I am coming down with a cold or something." Phil said. He knew Dan wouldn't fall for that trick, but it was worth a try.

"You know that's what everyone says before they turn, are you sure you're okay?" Dan asked in concern. Phil was going to have to work harder covering this up than he thought.

"Did...Did...Did you turn last night?"

"N...N...N...No?" Phil said. The urges were too strong, Phil couldn't take it anymore. The sound of constant blood thumping in his ear. The warm thick iron tasting blood. He knew he couldn't hold it in anymore.

"Chomp" Phil took a big bite into Dan's neck. It was as if he were in heaven, even though he knew he would never go there after what he had just done. Phil's eyes opened wide. He couldn't believe what he had just done. He had just turned his best friend into a vampire. Dan looked as he had just seen a ghost. His face turned white with fear as the blood drained out of his body. Dan collapsed to the ground with a big thud.

Dan woke up. Phil was leaning over him, waiting for his consequence.

"Good, it was all a nightmare. Right Phil?"

Phil's eyes dropped.

"No Dan, it wasn't a dream and now I need to leave you." Phil said

"No Phil, It's okay."
