Gregory had been awoken by the sounds of humans digging a hole for a coffin. Did they have to be so loud? Of course they did not know that he was down there but still they could have quitter. Sighing he jumped down from his sleeping stop on the roof. It would be about ten hours before the sun would be down, but with the loud noises over head there was no why he could sleep. He looked up at the rest of his family. How could they still sleep? Sighing again he sat down on the bench and leaned his back against the wall. He would just have to wait for the annoying humans to stop. After two hours he fell asleep.
"Gregory, hunny, it's time to get up." His mother said as she shook her sons sleeping body. Why was he on a bench and not the ceiling? She thought to herself as she shook him again. He opened his eyes and looked at his mother.
"I'm awake, mother." Gregory said. If it had been anyone else he would have growled, but he could not bring himself to growl at his mother. She smiled and nodded. Rudolf jumped off of his spot on the roof and landed next to his already awake family. Together they made their way to the cows they feed on. Tony had shown the cows to them about a month ago. Gregory hated feeding on animals. He wanted to kill humans. He was a vampire for Christ sake not a coward, but he did what he was told. When they arrived the barn they feed.
Their parents went back to the 'house', Rudolf and Ana went to play with Tony, and Gregory just wandered around the grave yard. He could not help, but feel lonely. Everyone had someone except for him, but he quickly pushed those thoughts out of his head when he saw a teenage girl crying over the fresh grave. Not knowing what to do he just stood there. He could smell her blood and he wanted her blood, but for some reason he just could not bite her. She was different from any other person he had come across. She looked to be about sixteen. Shifting from one foot to the other, he decided to speak.
"Hello." He said smiling when she jumped. She wiped the tears from her eyes and turned around.
"Hello, what are you doing here?" She asked as she tilted her head to the side an inch. He ignored her question and asked his own.
"What are you doing here?" She raised her eyebrow.
"I asked you first." She stated crossing her arms.
"I asked second. Two is a bigger number so you have to answer first." He said crossing his arms in a mocking way. A small smile formed on her lips.
"My brother died." She swallowed hard and continued speaking, "Now you, why are you here?" Gregory shrugged.
"I enjoy grave yards." He answered. She nodded, her crimson red hair getting in her face. She pushed it out of the way.
"I should go. Oh, and my name is Ava." She said turning around.
"Gregory" He said as he watched her leave.
