"How have you been, baby?"

I smiled at the fact my Mom was caring about me, "I have actually been decent. Danger lurks around every corner." I explained.

"Can I see your Marks?" She asked me, not even a little hesitant.

"Once we get to my new dorm." I grinned.

We walked through the door that led to my room, once we were inside she was speechless.

"Zoey! This room is beautiful!" She paused, " I'm thirsty. What's in the fridge?" She walked over and opened it, "Oh my!" She turned to face me, "Blood?"

"Mom, i'm a vampyre fledging. I happen to love blood." I smiled. She returned the smile.

"Any water, water?" She asked, chuckling.

"Over there." I pointed to the other fridge.

She laughed, "I knew that." She said, still laughing.

She grabbed a water bottle, and a blood bottle for me. We sat down on the end of my bed, and she started drinking her water. I opened the cap for my blood, and gulped half of it down.

"Eww. I am glad I am not a vampyre. Blood." She shuddered.

I laughed, and said, "Want to see my Marks now?"

She nodded eagerly, and I pulled my sweater off, and moved my shirt aside so she can see the Mark on my shoulder.

"That's beautiful.." She whispered. I lifted the back of my shirt so she could see the Marks on my back.

"Gorgeous." She murmured.

I smiled, and I fell over groaning in pain.

"What's wrong baby?!" She shreiked. "Are you rejecting the Change? No!" She sobbed.

I screamed, and the pain in my chest grew bigger, hotter. Like someone turned on an oven in my heart. I felt the burning sensation all over my body, and knew I was Changing. The pain finally eased, and I looked up, and my Mom gasped.

"You Changed.. Zoey it's beautiful!" She bent down, and hugged me hard, tears flowing over. Stark burst in the room.
