Ethan woke up in the back of his mother's care tired from the trip they just had. He had visited his grandparents who were way too pleased to see him. They had spent the entire visit talking about Ethan. "So Ethan you have a girlfriend yet?" his grandfather asked Ethan as he sipped his mug filled with straight black coffee with only a pinch of sugar.
His grandmother whose interest had faded suddenly came back with the question her husband had asked their grandson. Ethan just sat there on the other side of the dinner table looking embarrassed, his cheek bright red. "Well actually" Ethan began but was interrupted by his sister. "oh he does" she began "her name is Sarah, she is really I mean out if his league pretty and she's his babysitter" Ethan just turned around to face his sister widely pissed off. You didn't have to tell them He thought.
He was just glad to be back home where he would have less family bothering him. He stepped out of the car but his parents and sister remained in the same spot. "Why aren't you guys getting out of the car" he asked. His mother slowly rolled down the window "were going to your cousins but since you seemed so tired I thought you should just stay home for the Columbus Day weekend" with that she rolled up the windows and drove out of the drive way.
Ethan walked into his empty house out of instinct he called Benny who didn't answer, next he called Sarah who didn't answer when he was in the middle of a random conversation with Karin when his girlfriend called back. Out of excitement he shut off Karin and put on Sarah. "Hey" he said sounding nervous. Even it's been almost a month since they have been dating; he still feels as if she might decide to dump him at any moment but she never did. That surprised him.
"Can you come over?" Ethan asked. Sarah answered with a quick yes and hung up. Within exactly ten seconds she was knocking on the door waiting for Ethan to invite her in. "come in" Ethan yelled.
It only took seconds before Sarah and Ethan decided on something they could do together. That's what Sarah loved about being with Ethan; they knew each other as if they had known each other for centuries.
Sarah plopped down on the couch, patting the empty space next to her. Ethan took that as a cue and sat next to her only an inch of air separating their bodies from touching. Ethan grabbed the remote and turned on the movie they had agreed to watch "The Lovely Bones" that movie always made Sarah cry and apparently it made Ethan cry as well.
"Sorry" he apologized. Sarah shook her head "don't" she said "real men cry"
She closed the space in between them, resting her head on his shoulder. He brought her up by her chin bringing her lips to his.
After an hour Sarah decided to leave. She was about to go when she heard a baby crying. "Do you hear what I hear?" she asked her boyfriend. Ethan nodded. With interlocked hands they walked up to the front porch where they found a baby wrapped in pink blanket with a note in the babies tiny hands.
To whoever found this please take care of Taylor. She was just born into a vampire family but they have bad intentions for her. I have been watching you two, I have seen what you went through and I know you guys are fledgling and vampire. Good Luck.
Thank you Dana
"I think were supposed to keep the baby" Ethan said or asked in confusion it was hard to tell. But Sarah knew and just nodded. "I think we have a daughter, named Taylor" Sarah said her eyes full of confusion, all Ethan could say was "yep."
