Chandler left Joey watching TV and went across to the other apartment where everyone else was sitting around the table.
"Hey guys."
"Hey," everyone said together.
"Can I ask you guys something?"
"Sure," Monica said.
"Well its about Joey," Chandler started "he's acting…well…strange."
"How do you mean?" Ross asked.
Chandler explained all the weird things that happened that day.
"He's a vampire!" Ross joked. Everyone laughed.
"Yeah right. That's impossible…isn't it?" Chandlers voice became unsure. He had laughed at what Ross had said but somehow he had been convinced.
"Yeah. Impossible," Ross, Monica and Rachel said together.
"No," came Phoebes reply. Everyone looked at her. "What? It all adds up."
"No, it doesn't. Scientifically…"
"Ok Ross I get it," Phoebe interrupted causing Ross to glare at her "anyone have any other explanation though?"
They all looked at each and shook their heads. Chandler looked worried. "I'll keep an eye on him." The others nodded.
"Hey and if he starts wearing a cape or biting our necks then maybe we'll rethink the whole vampire thing." Everyone laughed except Chandler who wasn't sure what to do and was just stood there hoping that it would never get to that.
He stayed a while with the others before going back over to his apartment. He saw that Joey was still watching TV.
"Hey Joey. It's getting late – I'm going to bed. And remember that you have an audition in the morning."
Joey nodded. Chandler walked past and closed his bedroom door behind him.
It was now dark outside and there was little moonlight. Joey got up and turned the TV off. He went in to his room and opened the window.
Later on Chandler heard a thud. He got out of bed and went to check on Joey. It was early morning and was still dark outside though the sun was just beginning to rise. He stumbled over a few things in the dark before finally making it to Joey's room.
He walked in and shivered. The window was open. He looked around for Joey and saw him lying on his bed. He was on his back with his arms crossed over his chest. "Odd position to lay in," Chandler muttered to himself as he quietly closed the window and then turned to look at Joey, wondering if he had heard the noise. Joey seemed to be asleep though. Chandler turned to go but something stopped him. He looked back at Joey. There was blood on the bed near to wear Joey was laying. "No," Chandler told himself "he just cut himself. You can't think that way."
He slipped silently out his room and returned to his bed still thinking of what he had just seen.
A few hours later Joey woke up and was walking around the apartment making a lot of noise. Chandler got up and opened his door. "What are you doing Joey?"
"Oh. Sorry. I lost my script and the audition is in an hour."
"Oh right. It was on that chair," Chandler said pointing "you seem quite awake considering it is eight in the morning."
Joey ignored the comment. He found the script where Chandler had said and he rushed out the apartment. Chandler groaned and went back to bed.
In the middle of the afternoon everyone, except for Joey, was in Monica's apartment. They had been talking about Joey again.
"He had his arms across his chest. That is not normal."
"And you'd know how?" Ross asked with a grin. Chandler glared at him.
"Look something is going on. I think maybe you were right." Everyone laughed and Chandler sighed. The others tried to persuade him it was impossible and before long they were talking about something else.
Joey suddenly came through the door. The others looked round and jumped up from where they were sitting, in shock. "Hey you were right!"
"See!"
Rachel slowly stepped forwards. "Hey Joey. What's with the cape?"
"Oh. I went for a part as a super hero." The others looked at each other and sighed in relief. "I have to admit I do kinda like this cape though." The others looked at each other again. "Well I'm going to bed."
"Joey it's four in the afternoon."
"I got up early and it's been a long day."
The others shrugged but Chandler looked uncertain. "He's wearing a cape…and I know what he said, but he likes it and…well he is going to bed during the day and I'm sure he was up for most of last night."
"You saw he was asleep – you told us that,"
"I know but…"
"Chandler, enough! Joey is not a vampire!" Monica said. Chandler nodded and smiled slightly, trying to forget all the thoughts and before long it was forgotten as the group sat back down and started watching TV.
For now Chandler was again reassured it was impossible, but for how long?

Thanks for the review! I am not familiar with that. Even if I were I wouldn't make my story go along the same lines. This story isn't based on anything. I want this to be different to other things. It may have some similar things, but they are not intentional.
Please keep reading and reviewing :)
