Joan's p.o.v

As I pulled up into my new drive, I could feel the boys scrutinizing my home. I shook my head and pulled over the car. I got out and waited for the boys. They got out really slowly, I don't even know why I'm doing this, I should really kill them now. It's not like they're really any use to me, I just have some strange connection to them. And I'm going to find out why.

"This is your house?" Ryan asked, shocked. I raised my eyebrow at him and nodded slowly. Shane was staring at me and laughed at his brother, he then turned back to face me, staring at me. Creepy. I turned and walked inside.

On my left was the stair that went up to the second and third floor of this house, on my right was the living room, it had cream couches and dark brown furniture. There was a cabinet on the far right hand side. It had sliding glass above the cabinet bit, the cabinet bit was in two parts, the top one was below the glass and it opened downward. The second bit of cabinet had two doors that opened outwards. Next to the cabinet was the video stack. It was stacked with millions of videos and DVDs.

I walked forward towards the kitchen, I remembered that humans had to eat so I went to cook dinner for them. I got out the fish and chips out of the freezer and the mushy peas out of the cupboard. I put the fish and chips in the oven and put the mushy peas in a pan to cook. I walked out of the kitchen, over to Shane and Ryan who were stood there looking around the room.

"I'm making you some dinner." I stated, their heads snapped round in surprise, obviously they hadn't heard me coming. Either that or they're afraid of what I might or might not be putting into their food. Ryan nodded and continued expecting the furniture, but Shane kept on staring at me. "What?" I asked, genuinely curious. He shrugged but kept staring. I raised an eyebrow and spin around on my heels to go into the kitchen. When I got in the kitchen, I noticed I left the cooker on and it was bubbling over.

I quickly turned it off and carried on with the other food, setting the table for them. When I was done setting the food on the plate, I turned around to put it on the table and shout the boys but Shane was stood there, smiling at me. I found it a bit creepy but set it on the table anyway. I put the one on the right down first then the one on the left, as I was about to set it down Shane was in front of me, the food in between us. Oh, how I wish there was no food. I strangely thought. He smiled at me and took the food from my hands.

"You've been so nice, at least let us do something." As he said us, Ryan walked through the door and smiled at the food. How strange. They both sat down but Ryan moved up a space to let me sit opposite Shane. I smiled and shook my head. He gave me the 'please' look. I sighed and sat.

"Where's your food?" Ryan asked. I may as well tell them the truth if they're going to be living with me.

"I don't eat food." I told them.

"Anorexic." Ryan stated. I furrowed my eyebrows and frowned at him.

"How the hell did you get anorexic from not eating food... Oh! Yeah, Ok." I trailed off quietly. I guess because I've not been around humans for a while, I forgot their little words, like anorexic. I never thought, because humans don't see me feed, that they'd class me as anorexic. Well, I know I'm not.

"What foods do you eat?" Shane asked, trying to get me back into the conversation.

"Can I tell you a secret and you promise not to be scared or run away, or even hate me?" I importuned them. They nodded and promised.

"I'm not human." I admitted. God only know why, but I feel as though I can trust them. Their eyes widened as they took in the information.

"Wha-..." Ryan stuttered as Shane cocked his head to the side and carried on eating.

"What you don't believe me?" I asked Shane, a little annoyed. He nodded.

"Prove it." I glared at him and went over to the cooker and picked it up. Ryan gasped and got up too quickly off his chair, making it fall over. Shane, on the other hand, dropped his knife and fork and froze.

"Proof enough for you?" I asked, feeling slightly better now that they believed me and are scared, it makes it so much more fun. What kind of sadistic vampire am I?! I'll answer, a very cool one. Shane got up and walked over to Ryan, all eyes on me. He stood in front of him. I got what he was trying to say.

"Oh, no. I won't hurt you." I said sweetly in my purr voice, always works. Shocker there, it worked.

"Why did you take us in then?" Shane asked in his so cute scared voice... I'm loosing track of thought, again.

"I took you in because, in some weird way, I care for you. Did your food taste weird at all? No, because I don't want to kill you." I told them as I stood up and walked over to them. Shane believed me and didn't move as I came closer but Ryan did.

"But you killed Brendan." He accused.

"Who?" I asked, curiously.

"Brendan, they other guy in your apartment. The one that you killed." He reminded me.

"Oh, yeah, him." I said as I looked in Shane's eyes, letting him get lost in them, the big deep ocher eyes that were not even mine. "Well I told you, I'm not human. I'm a vampire." I said as Shane came even closer.
