It was a cold Monday night as I walked home from my best friend's house after sneaking-out to go over there all night long. I walk down the path to my home and like always I passed by the book store that was on the corner and realized that the new vampire book to the series I was reading and thought 'What the heck!' Miles will slip in there and get since I'm walking right passed the place that has it. So I looked both ways and ran across the street and into the book store. When I got inside and was greeted by Ms. Walters, a rather short woman was fiery red hair and bulky round orange glasses, wear her normal poke a dot dress. She waved and I did the same in return. When I finally got the area where the vampire books were I saw a very handsome tall, long blond haired, blue eyed teenage boy, maybe a year older then me, already there looking at two different books trying to figure out which one he wanted. Right when I saw the book I needed I pick it up and turn to leave when I heard a deep handsome voice say.

"Excuse me. I saw you get one of the books in the Blue Bloods series and you look like someone who likes vampire books, I was wondering if you could tell me one is better out of the two of these?"

I turn and noticed it was the boy that I had seen when I first came in, He was staring at me with intense eyes. I looked down to see he was holding my two favorite books. In his left, he had Vampire Kisses and in his right he had Blue Bloods the first in the series I was reading now.

"Um I love them both but if I had to choose I would pick Vampire Kisses." I smiled. "But It's up to you I don't want to get the book and not like it. I mean everybody has different views of different things. I mean I could love to book but there's a chance you wouldn't."

"That's true. But there is also the chance I could love the book like you." He smiled.

"That is true." I agreed with a small smile.

"I guess it's all up to chances." He said in a seductive voice.

"I guess it is." I agreed again.

"Just like how it was chance that you and I would meet tonight. I'm Eric. Eric Evans." He said holding out his hand for me to shake.

I shook his hand and said. "Katelyn, Katelyn Haylyn."

With my hand still in his, he whispered. "What a beautiful name." and placed a soft kiss on the back of my hand.

"Thank you." I said flattered.

"You are most welcome." He smiled. "Your boyfriend is a lucky one."

"Oh I don't have a boyfriend." I whispered lost in his deep ice blue eyes.

"Oh what a shame, I would have thought someone as gorgeous as you would have million admirers. They are all fouls for not fighting over the honor of having you as theirs. Your beauty is truly captivating. I would be honored to have as mine." He smiled a seductive smile and bowed.

I was truly flattered and amazed. I had never heard a boy of my age talk as if he were from a different time and place.

"That's very sweet of you." I smiled.

"Anything for a girl as beautiful as you." He whispered.

I blushed. "Well I must be going." I said sadly.

"What a shame." He said also in a sad voice.

"Yes. It is a shame." I whispered getting lost in his eyes yet again.

"Hmmmm. Then why don't you sit with me for awhile?" He suggested.

"O-ok." I whispered unevenly.

With the hand, he was still holding led me over to a sitting area. He took a seat across from me and looked at me with interest.

"Tell me Katelyn." He began but stopped.

"Yes?" I asked.

"How old are you?" He asked back.

"Thirteen." I whispered.

"You don't look or act like a thirteen year old I thought you were older." He said.

"I don't feel thirteen sometimes either. Sometimes I feel much older." I told not knowing why.

"Really? That's wonderful!" He whispered.

"Huh?" I asked very confused.

"Nothing." He smiled. "So what's a girl like you doing out this late with no one to protect her?"

"Well my parents think I'm still at home so do my brother and sister. I snuck out because I went to a friend's house and then decided to come here because I just couldn't wait to get the new Blue Bloods book." I smiled.

"I'm guessing you sneak out a lot." He chuckled.

I smiled and said. "Not all the time. But normally I sneak out with my sister and we go walking through the town."

"So where is your sister then?" He asked sounding worried that I was alone.

"Well she was supposed to come with me but she fell asleep and I didn't have the heart to wake her." I explained.

I looked at the clock on the wall and was shocked to see how late it was.

"I have to go." I whispered.

"Are you sure?" He asked in a lonely voice.

"Yes I can't afford my brother finding out that I snuck out." I said sadly. "I wish I could stay but I can't. But I hope to run into you again. I had fun." I smiled.

"I'm glad." He smiled happy that I had enjoyed myself. He grabbed my hand softly and kissed it. He looked deep within my eyes and said. "It was truly an honor to have met you. I wait the next time we meet." He bowed.

I smiled and then turned to leave. I walked up to the checkout counter and bought my book and start on my way home.

I was half way home almost to the greenbelt, a little park that beside my house. When I heard someone walking towards me in from the green belt. I ran down the alleyway between the greenbelt and back of the wall-greens. I was running as fast as I could. I could still hear someone running behind me. I was almost to the other entrance to the park when someone grabbed me from behind.

"LET ME GO!" I screamed.

But my attacker didn't let go and he didn't speak.

"PLEASE! PLEASE! LET ME GO!" I cried out again.

Still my attacker didn't let go nor did he speak.

Tears began to run down my face. My whole life flashing before my face, I saw my Grandma and grandpa faces. I saw my brother Jonathan's face all my friends' faces then the last face I saw was the face of my older sister Linsey's face.

"PLEASE! Please I'm begging you please don't take me away from my sister! Please don't!" I cried tears running down my face like a rushing river.

I felt my attacker kiss my neck and the whisper in a horse voice. "I am truly sorry. I just can't let you go. I've been searching centuries for you. I just can't let you go now that I've found you. I love you too much for that." He kissed my neck again and then bit into my flesh where his lips were.

I could feel my blood draining from my body. I could feel sleep dragging me under. After what seemed like forever, I felt him pull away. He picked me up and cradled me in his arms. I only got one look at my attacker before sleep dragged me down into a pit of darkness. I was too shocked to see who it was. It was Eric. The boy I had met at the bookstore. Why? He seemed so sweet when I met him. I didn't get to think about why he did it because I into a deep sleep…..

When I woke up, I was… Wait a second… Where am I! I looked around and it was pitch black. Oh my god! I was in a coffin! I screamed as loud as I could.

The coffin lid swung open.

"Katie what's wrong are you ok?" Eric asked worried. He reached his head to brush my hair out of my eyes.

I jerked away from his touch in a flash I had never moved that fast before. Before I knew it my back was up against the wall.

He looked truly hurt by the way, I acted to his touch.

"Please. Please don't be afraid of me." He said in a weak voice again reaching out his hand for me to take.

I fell to my knees, put my face in my hands, and started to cry.

"Please just let me go!" I cried lifting my head from my hands to look at him.

"I… Can't do that." He whispered.

"Why not?" I yelled at him.

He didn't say a thing he just looked down at my hands.

I looked down at my hands. I started to cry even more. Because my hands were covered in tears of blood. And every tear that fell from my face and landed in my hand was dark red and thick.

"What did you do too me." I asked in a weak voice.

"I-I made you into what I am. I made you one of the undead." He said.

"W-What?" I asked shakily

"I turned you into a vampire." He whispered.

End of dream

I shot up in bed gasping.

"Whoa…"
