God, can people not think nice things? The horrible thoughts that go through people's heads... I've yet to hear a mind that thinks only positive things, lovely things, but then again, I've yet to see pigs fly.
As I drive around in my automobile, I think to myself how nice it is to be going slow for once in a while. I'm barely hitting 80m.p.h. as I drive along the brand new motorway. I turn the radio on and find the 'oldies' channel with 50's music, the only music worth listening to. Singing softly to one of my favorites, the last thing I expect are the cops to be on my tail, but there you have it.
Whilst debating whether or not to drive off I hear something strange. I'm not sure whether it was on the radio or in my head, and that's odd for me, seeing as I'm a vampire and all. I pull over and roll down the window. The officer is female, and she has a familiar scent about her, yet it could not be more unique. It's like standing in the middle of a herbalist's, with lots of different herbs and teas.
'Have you any idea how fast you were going sir?'
She obviously hadn't yet realized who I am, or rather, WHAT I am.
'Sorry, miss, it must be my speedometer, it's faulty...'
What is up with me? I can usually think up something better than that. My brain has turned to mush inside my head.
'Well, you're gonna have to-'
She cut off and stared at me full in the face, obviously now noticing my bronze eyes.
'That's not right... you're-'
'Don't say it out loud,' I warned her,' you can come by my lodgings in this town and meet my...um... family.'
She looked at me. 'We have to discuss matters, y'know, feeding arrangements...and stuff.'
'Yes, I know.'
I told her where to find our house and I drove off.
