What? Summary: What if Claire's life wasn't as normal as she thinks it to be? The day started as any other day, waking up early taking her shower then looking for an outfit to wear. Today Claire went with a pair of white shorts and a pink shirt that has the word "Yummy" in big letters over a cupcake. Claire then went to her hair dresser and straightened her mid-back brown almost red hair. Put a little bit of pink lip gloss on and grabbed her bag and books and ran downstairs into the kitchen. Michael was sitting at the table reading the newspaper with a sports bottle next to him. "Morning Claire." Michael said. "Hey Michael, what are you doing up so early?" Claire asked. "Couldn't really sleep well, plus I have to get to work in a little bit new kid wants to learn how to play guitar." He answered. "Oh, well hope you teach him well even though I know you will." Claire replies. She grabs her mug from the cupboard and grabs Michael's and holds it up as a silent "Coffee?" Michael just nods his head as he already knew what Claire was asking him. Claire then puts the coffee in the filter and lets that cook for a while then grabs toast and puts two slices in the toaster and waits. The toaster dings indicating that the toast is done and she grabs a small plate and butter from out the fridge she starts to spread the butter on the other slice of toast when a hand snakes around her arm and takes the first piece of toast. "Hey!" She calls out and looks into the smiling of face of Shane with a piece of toast in his mouth Her toast."You took my piece of toast!" She exclaims. "Yep!" Is his famous reply. "Give it back." She retorts back. "Make me." He says and with that she tackles him and takes her toast back. I know she over re-acted but she didn't have dinner last night. "Here you can have my coffee." She says. Michael starts to laugh at the fact that she tackled Shane for a piece of toast. Eve then chooses the time to walk in the room. "Hey how come everyone's laughing without me?" She pouts. "Ask Claire" Michael says then sips his cup of coffee. "Well sorry I can't do that I have to go to TPU like now." She says. "Then after that I have to go to Myrnin's so I'll shall be back around 5:45 or 6:00 tonight and I'll be making something different tonight." Claire says before giving Eve and Michael a hug and Shane a quick peck on the lips before grabbing her things and her key and stepping outside to smell the nice fresh air of Morganville, Texas in the morning then she makes her way towards TPU but not before stopping by the Collins house to pick up Alyssa her other best friend after Eve. She knocks on the door and is greeted by the smiling face of Mrs. Collins also known as Molly. "Hello Claire, Lyss is upstairs getting ready she should be down here in a little while she just finished eating breakfast, would you like some?" Mrs. Collins (Molly) asks. "Oh no thanks I just ate before I came over here." Claire replies thinking back to her toast dilemma. "Ok well remember you're always welcome to eat anything." She answers. "Ok!" Claire replies. Her and Mrs. Collins have became close over the last year. "Honey have you seen the- Oh hey Claire!" Mr. Collins (Frank) says and gives Claire a hug, over the past year Claire had become like another daughter to Frank. "Hey Frank!" She exclaims. "Claire!" A high pitched voice squeals before she is in yet another hug. "Lyss!" She manages to choke out. "Hey I need to breathe." "Sorry I just missed you." Lyss says. "I saw you yesterday!" Claire laughs out. "I know," She replies happily. "Well are you ready to go?" She asks. "Yea, Bye Frank bye Molly!" She says before giving them both hugs then links her arm around Lyssa's after she gives her mom and dad a hug. They then walk out the front door and head towards school then stop in front of Common Grounds. "Ok so when we get out of school which should be at 3:05 but since you like to stay later in the library you come to Common Grounds and I'll meet you when I get back from Myrnin's ok?" Claire says. "Yep got it!" Lyss exclaims then hugs Claire and makes her way towards Morganville High School. "Be careful Claire calls out!" "I will!" A small but noticeable voice calls out. Claire makes her way to school. After lab with the crazy Myrnin Claire keeping her word picks Lyss from Common Grounds then start to make their way towards the Glass House. Where the sun is starting to set so they pick up their pace, when a shadow falls in front of them. He smiles and starts to move towards them as if he had all the time in the world which in his case he did. "Lyssa turn around and run towards home the other way." Claire says surprised about the steadiness in her voice. "What about you?" Lyssa asks. "I'll be fine, I hope." She says the last part quietly so Lyssa couldn't hear her. Lyssa following orders for the first time turns and runs. The vampire starts to talk. "Well little girl you should have ran away with your friend." He says. "No it's my job to protect her so if getting bitten means that then that's what I'll do, but you'll regret it because Amelie is my protector." Claire says. "Little girl I don't care about Amelie all I care about is blood, and since you stood up to me I think I might just change you for the fun of it." He then lunges straight towards her throat and Claire throws her hand out in some sort of defense motion to hold him off. Waiting for the pain of his fangs to sink in her neck she sees no feels something shoot through her body and a bright light shoots from her hand and into his body knocking him flat out on the ground. With a burn patch right where his heart should be. Claire bewildered then runs home into the Glass house only to find all the Glass House members ready to charge at her with stakes "AAHH!" She screams. "Claire!" A voice calls Shane's voice. "Oh thank god your ok, Lyss told us about you protecting her from that vamp, what were you thinking?" " I just had to protect her." Yes and what a great job you did. A nagging voice in the back of her head said. "So who wants dinner?" Claire asks. Replies of yes and me come from the people in the room. "Ok." Claire says then walks into the kitchen and starts to make Nachos. While the Nachos bake she gets the cheese and the rest of things that you put over Nachos on the counter. When the oven dings telling Claire that the Nachos are down, she grabs oven mitts then opens the oven and pulls out the Nachos and sits them on the stove, sitting the oven mitts on the counter she yells "Dinners ready!" With just those two words a loud pounding of shoes hit the hard-wood floor sounding like a herd of animals. Claire walking into the living-room with her plate and a can of coke she turns on the tv and the Morganville News is on and it shows a crime scene of a body that looks like he got burned from the inside out as if he swallowed gasoline and a match was thrown down his throat. Then the face comes to play, and Lyss her big mouth yells out "Hey Claire isn't that the vamp that tried to fang us out there?!" " I don't know Lyssa he does look familiar but I don't know." Claire lied eating and downing her drink fast she runs up stairs and closes her door shut and only three words come to her as she slides down the door. What am i?
