One day in Mockingbird Heights at the Munster's house Eddie was running around playing with his sister Nila. Eddie Ran into the Kitchen and Nila followed him into the kitchen. They both nearly ran into their mother Lily then avoided her at the last minute.

Whoa careful you two we do not need anyone to get hurt now do we. Lily asked as she looked at Eddie and Nila then sighed.

No sorry mom came along Nila. Eddie said as he gently pulled Nila on her arm.

Ok Eddie and sorry mommy Nila said as she smiled and followed Eddie.

Herman came down and saw Marilyn, Grandpa, and Lily in the Kitchen.

Hi everyone, where are the kids at? Herman asked as he kissed Lily's cheek and smiled.

They ran outside with Spot to play. Lily said as she sighed.

Is breakfast done yet Lily? Herman asked as he looked at Lily and smiled.

No I am sorry Herman I am falling a bit behind today I don't know why. Lily said as she yawned and then sat down.

Herman went over and felt her forehead then he sighed.

You're usually cold but now you are warm Herman said as he removed his hand from Lily's Forehead then he looked at Lily.

Come to think of it I am a bit warm Lily said as she looked at Herman.

Ok let's get you somewhere comfortable Lily your sick come on. Herman said as he picked up Lily and brought her up to bed.

Herman I am ok I promise please put me down. Lily said as she coughed.

Relax dear and just sleep, take an easy and feel better Herman said as he put Lily down in bed.

Lily sneezed and looked at Herman. Herman then gave Lily a box of tissues.

Rest now dear please ok Herman said as he kissed Lily's forehead.

Lily laid down and tried to fall asleep. Herman closed the door and went downstairs and started breakfast. 20 minutes later breakfast was done.

Eddie and Nila breakfast is done, Herman said as he called for them.

Awe Man come on spot Eddie said as he looked at spot and sighed.

Ok daddy where is mommy she usually calls us for breakfast Nila asked as she sighed.

She is a bit under the weather today Herman said as he picked Nila up.

Herman, Eddie, and Nila all went inside. Upstairs Lily was trying to sleep but couldn't sleep, so she sat up in bed and started to read for a little bit. After the kids had their breakfast Herman took them to school then came back to check on Lily. When Herman got home, he saw Lily sitting at the table drinking tea for her throat. Herman walked over to Lily.

Hey Lily, how do you feel? Herman asked as he kissed Lily's head and sat down.

Weak Lily said as she sneezed and transformed into a bat.

Lily…..Lily…..Lily dear where are you at Lily? Herman asked as he called out for Lily.

Lily flew in front of Herman's face to let him know where she was. Lily then flew back from Herman and sneezed again. Then changed back into herself and fell on the floor.

Lily! Are you ok? Herman asked as he picked up Lily and sighed.

Not really dear it's the Vampire cold, the worst sickness of all. Only Vampires can only get it because well it's in the name. Lily said as she sighed.

What do I have to do to make you feel better Lily? And what is the difference between a Vampire cold and a normal cold? Herman asked as he sighed.

Just keep a close eye on me when you're not working. When a vampire has the Vampire cold, they turn into bats whenever they sneeze, and some Vampires do not all lose their skin. Lily said as she sighed and coughed hard at the same time.

Oh, my Lily are you ok? Herman asked as he looked at her and gasped.

Yes, dear I am fine don't worry I am just a bit sick you know that Lily said as she sighed.

I know….I know Lily, but you do need to rest, Herman said as he smiled.

I know but I can't, Lily said as she sighed and rested her head on Herman.

If I hold you, maybe you might be able to get some rest. Herman said as he smiled.

Ok it wouldn't hurt to try it. Lily said as she looked at him.

Herman sat down on the couch holding Lily in his arms. Lily rested her head on Herman's chest and tried to sleep. As soon as Lily was half asleep the clock went off and woke Lily up.

Well, it kind of worked, but it is time to pick the kids up from school. They had a half day today. Herman said as he looked at Lily.

I know I will try and rest again dear. Lily said as she yawned and rested.

Ok Lily I will be back soon. Herman said as he kissed Lily and left.

Lily laid down on the couch 20 minutes later Herman and the kids came home, and Lily still couldn't sleep so she sat up.

Hi Herman, Eddie and Nila Grandpa said as he smiled at them.

Hi grandpa, did Lily sleep at all? Herman asked as he sighed.

No Herman she tried but it didn't work at all Grandpa said as he sighed.

Weird I had her almost asleep before I left. Herman said as he sighed.

This might sound strange, but Lily might just want you to hold her. That is how she always was when she was younger and sick. And Lily usually never gets sick at all to be honest. Grandpa said as he sighed.

I will go to her now maybe just take out or something or Marilyn by any chance could you make dinner tonight because your Aunt Lily isn't feeling well if not its fine. Herman asked as he sighed.

I would love to help her as much as I can, but I can't. Uncle Herman you see I have to go to the Library with my science group to study for our project sorry. Marilyn said as she sighed.

It's alright dear we will just take out tonight because if Lily would need me to hold her, I wouldn't be able to make dinner. Herman said as he sighed.

And we don't really trust grandpa's cooking, Nila and Eddie said at the same time.

Sorry again guys Marilyn said as she sighed and looked at them feeling bad.

Don't worry about it dear go on Herman said as he smiled.

Ok Uncle Herman bye Aunt Lily I hope you feel better soon. Marilyn said as she left.

Herman went over to Lily and sat down next to her. Lily put her head on Herman.

Now Lily I am here now try to get some rest please. Herman said as he held Lily close.

Lily closed her eyes just then the phone went off and grandpa answered the phone.

Hello Grandpa said as he sighed.

….

Yes he is right here just one minute Grandpa said as he handed the phone to Herman.

….

Whoa…..Whoa slow down please sir I can't understand you and just so you know this was my day off. Herman said as he sighed.

Lily heard Herman talking on the phone and she opened her eyes.

Okay ok I am coming Herman said as he hung the phone up and stood up then he covered up Lily and kissed Lily.

Herman? Lily asked as she looked at Herman and then sighed.

Lily dear I have to go. That was my boss and he doesn't sound happy. Herman said as he sighed.

But you just got home and you had off today and I….. Lily started to say but got cut off.

I will see you later Lily bye love you. Herman said as he left.

…..Need you Lily said as she sighed and laid down on the couch.

Lily dear, are you hungry at all? Grandpa asked as he sighed.

No, I am not father at all. Lily said as she sighed and looked at Grandpa.

What is wrong with my little bat? Grandpa asked as he looked at Lily.

Well I know I am not the one to complain when I am sick. I am really tired. I am not feeling too good and I want my husband because I am tired and he is the only one that can calm me to sleep. Lily said as she cried a little bit and looked at her father.

Awe now don't worry dear he will be back meanwhile just go up and lay down. Grandpa said as he helped Lily up and smiled.

Ok father I will try, Lily said as she yawned and went upstairs and laid. All the way across town at Herman's work.

Mr. Gateman I am here, what is wrong? Herman asked as he looked at his boss.

We have a last minute funeral we need a gravedigger ASAP can you please do it. Mr. Gateman asked as he looked at Herman.

{Herma in head}

I want to decline because I want to get back to Lily, but he is my boss.

{Herman out of head}

Of course, I can for sure sir Herman said as he forced a smile and got up.

Back at the Munster's house Lily was laying in bed and sneezing off and on also kept transforming into a bat and back to her normal self.

Oh bats I want to stop sneezing but I….Achoo….Can't Lily said as she sneezed again then changed back.

Mama, are you ok? I can hear you from my room. Nila said as she stood behind the door a bit scared.

Oh yes dear Mommy is just sick today Lily said as she coughed.

Ok Mommy feel better soon please. Nila said as she yawned.

Hi Aunt Lily, I am home Marilyn said as she looked at Lily.

Hi Marilyn, how was studying? Lily asked as she looked at her.

Well…Ummm Marilyn said as she looked at Lily and sighed.

That bad huh. Lily asked as she coughed and looked at Marilyn.

Well…Ummm….Yeah is there anything you would like me to do for you? Marilyn asked as she looked at Lily.

Um yes could you please put Nila to bed I would, but I don't want her to catch this Vampire cold. Lily said as she coughed hard.

Of course Aunt Lily come along Nila, Marilyn said as she smiled.

Thank you so much Marilyn. Lily said as she coughed again.

Your welcome Aunt Lily and I will get you water in a minute. All that matters is that you get better. Marilyn said as she smiled.

Nighty night mamma Nila said as she covered her face walked over to Lily and hugged her.

Nighty night sweetheart sleep well. Lily said as she yawned.

Lily sat up in bed waiting for Herman to get home. After waiting for so long Lily started getting tired so she laid down and closed her eyes. A few moments later Herman got home. He didn't see Lily, so he went up to his and Lily's room and saw Lily laying down sleeping. He got ready for bed and laid down carefully trying not to wake Lily up. Lily felt Herman getting into bed and she woke up.

Herman? Lily asked as she yawned and opened her eyes.

Yes Lily I am sorry I woke you up go back to sleep dear I am home now for the rest of the night. Herman said as he put his arm around Lily.

Lily turned on her side to face her husband then moved Closer to him and finally fell asleep for the night. Herman kissed Lily on her forehead and held her close then fell asleep for the rest of the night.

THE END
