** PLEASE READ**

Hai! :3 Okay, this is my first Morganville fanfic and also my first FanFiction.I love The Morganville Vampire series, along with many other books to do with vamps (Maybe I'll do other fanfics, depends on if people like me. xD). I'm scared to post this. Ah. Okay, there, it's done. Please be easy on me, I'm new to this. I'd looovveee to see reviews. I'll post a second chapter if at least one person reads this. xD

This is set sometime between the books, sometime when it's calm. Peyton is a character I came up with, I had this idea and I couldn't stop thinking about it, so I wrote it down.

Hope you enjoy!

Peyton POV:

It was terrible. Truely terrible. Why?! Why did they get to leave but not me? Oh, I know why, because I'm too 'useful'. Useful my ass.
They were just worried I'd get word out about the vamps. That's all they ever care about. But I don't see why they needed to worry, the vamps take the memories away, it's not like I would remember. But no, mum and dad went along with it and decided it was best to send me to live with cousin Michael. Ha. How funny. Michael Glass, the vampire. My cousin. I had to live with a vamp, which was in fact funny, since I hated them.
But they wouldn't listen to my hopeless pleas to not go. They wanted Michael to set me straight, oh, how they were going to be sourly disappointed. See, what they didn't know was that Peyton was apart of a group...well, okay, not apart...more like...ran. She ran vamp hunting group. It wasn't really vamp hunting, more like a group of people who hated vamps and refused to follow their rules. The people over 18 didn't pay the blood tax and hid from the blood mobile, most of the younger ones just stayed together and out of trouble. I lead them because, well, who else will? I may be young, but I can look after myself just fine. There's a lot of us. 25 and counting.
Daniel, he's 22, bought a house for us to hide out in. Most of us in the group are orphans or run aways, so they live in the house. 20 people currently live there, which is sad when you think of it. 20 people who don't have families. They look out for each other and I come around when I can, lately mum and dad have been banning me from going, but now that they were dumping me, I'll get to go more often.

They dropped her off in front of the house and left, just like that. They left. I think they were relieved to get rid of me, not that they didn't love me, sure, but I was trouble, I knew that. I always had been. I walked up to the door and knocked, looking up at the large house.''Great. I'm moving in with a vampire.'' she muttered to herself hopelessly. Why Michael? Why not anyone else? She would've been happy to be dropped off on the side of the road, anywhere but in a house with her vampire cousin and his three friends.
Ugh. Oh well, it's happening, I better get used to it.
I took in a deep breath and knocked on the front door.

Michael's POV:
Things were great lately, everything has fallen into place lately. It's great. No emergencies or vamp attacks, it's all normal. Eve- no, Mrs Glass and I are brilliant. Shane and Claire are great too, not that it's great seeing them make out all the time, but still,
it was great. The door knocked in the middle of eating dinner, Shane had made chilli dogs and we were all sat at the table, joking and having fun. ''I'll get it.'' I said quickly, standing up.
I walked to the door and opened it slowly,chuckling when I heard Eve call Shane a prick.

''Peyton?'' I asked, blinking. There in front of him stood his cousin He hadn't seen her in a long time, not since before he was a vamp. No doubt she knew though, by the look on her face.

''Hey there, vamp boy.'' Peyton said, pushing past him.

She had a large black suitcase in tow with her that she dragged through the front door. She walked to the lounge, looking around. Claire, Shane and Eve who were laughing about something, walked out of the kitchen and stopped when they saw Peyton.

''Who's the chick?'' Shane asked curiously, sitting down on the couch.

''Peyton.'' Pey replied, ''Hey there hot stuff.''

After Shane and Peyton bickered for a moment,I finally just had to ask,''What are you doing here?''

''Oh? Mummy and Daddy didn't tell you?'' She said, smirking,''I'm moving in.''

I stared at her, eyes wide. No, her parents hadn't mentioned anything about that. Not a thing.

''What?'' Eve asked, confused,''Who exactly are you?''

''I'm Peyton, Peyton Glass. I'm Mikey's cousin.''

''You never mentioned cousins.'' Shane said, frowning.

''I haven't seen her since I was small.'' I said slowly, sighing.

''Yep, well, mum and dad decided to leave, the 'Founder' who I'd rather refer to as 'Queen Bitch', said I couldn't go. Something about me being useful or something.'' Peyton replied, running a hand through her long blonde hair. She was pretty and looked quite a lot like himself actually, with her blonde hair and blue eyes.

''So..they dumped you with us?'' Shane asked, looking at her,''How old are you exactly?''

''16.'' Pey replied, rolling her eyes.

''And your parents just left you? Here?'' Claire asked, frowning.

''They think I'm too much trouble.'' She replied bitterly.

''And so they dumped you with an 18 year old guy? Yep, that's smart.'' Eve said, chipping off bits of her black nail polish.

''He's a vamp, I think they hoped he'd bite me to set me straight.'' Peyton smirked, crossing her arms.

Oh great, he was now in charge of a 16 year old rebel child. Just great. So much for alone time with Eve.
As if she knew what he was thinking Peyton said,''I'm not a baby, I'm perfectly capable of looking after myself.'' Oh yeah, right.

''Sounds like Claire when she first came here.'' Shane smirked, earning a hit on the arm from Claire.

She's trouble and we all know it. Things were going to change...a lot.
