Best Day, Worst night

Edward has news that he wants to share with the heads of his job. The new could change the world but he does not care. He just wants to have his secret under his wings. This could be the biggest thing for him. What will happen when he tells his heads? Something that will make him wish he never knew. This could be the biggest mistake of his life

I walked out into the sunlight letting the warmth wash over me. Today I was going to to tell the heads about my secret. It was huge and could change the world but I was only going to tell them. Even I knew when to keep my mouth shut.

I had seen people that looked different from normal humans. They had milky red eyes and no human has that. They also had pale white skin and snow white teeth. They had the feel of trouble around them. The first one I had seen was a male and he had been watching me closely. He wore faded blue jeans, a white shirt, and dark black boots. He kept his eyes on me the whole time. He watched me until I reached the corner.

I pulled up to a grey building and walked inside. The smell of water washed over me as I passed the fountian. I loved that smell and longed to stay there. I enterd a big room with a oak table in the center. It was surounded by seven black leather chairs. Being the boss I took the one at the end of the table.

Six men entered the room shortly after I did. They were the heads here. They helped me run my business. I would do anything for them and they would do anything for me. They were and always will be my family.

"I have so big news," I started, "that I must share with all of you."

"Edward," Alexander chimed in. "I will have to leave soon. My son is in town for today and I would like to see him."

"Well then lets get moving. I don't want to keep you away from your son," I told him. "Now let me tell you all what I know. There are people out there that are not human. They have milkly ruby red eyes and pale skin. The look like angels but their eyes scream death."

"Edward prove it," Ray challenged me.

I pulled out a picture that I had taken of one of the males I had seen. I placed on the table and all eyes followed my hand.

"Bloody Hell that is creepy," ray exlcaimed when he looked at the picture.

"We can tell no one," I told them.

"Yes quite right about that," Alexander agreed. "I best be off."

He got up and left the room quickly. "We will talk more later," I said and got up.

The five of us left with out another word to each other. I walked outside to see on of the things looking daed at me. He was tall, blonde, and had the same red eyes as all the others. He had on faded blue jeans, a white dress shirt, and black boots.

I kept my eye on him as I got into my car. I looked in my mirrors to see him still watching the car. I started my car and he walked off. As I drove out of the drive way I saw another male. He was shorter but again had the same red eyes. As I drove by the tallest pointed at me but quickly put his hand down when he saw me.

The rest of the day went by in a blur. I was to consumed in my own thoughts to worry about my family. That was not like me in way, shape, or form.

I remember crawling into bed and my wife wrapping her arm around me. I took her arm in my hand and stroked it mechanically. She sighed and pulled away and rolled onto her side.

I lay awake for hours. I listened to her steady breathing as she slept beside me. It was soft and gentle. I leaned over and kissed her on the cheek then rolled out of bed. I would read in the living room until I got tired.

I slowly made my way to the living room. I went over to the lamp and turned it on. Light flooded the room reveling two figures. They were the two men I saw today.

"Don't move or make a sound," the tallest told me, "and no one gets hurt."

I nodded as to indicate I understood.

The tall one came around and tied my hands behind my back. I was then drug out to an awaiting car. The shortest got in the back with me. He had dark brown hair and wore all black. His eyes seemed dead when he looked at me. It seemed as if a piece was missing from him.

"Garrett would you please but the human asleep," the blonde asked.

"My pleasure," he answered.

He looked me dead in the eye for the second time that day. I was begging to feel sleepy but I hadn't earlier. Darkness engulfed me as I fell into a deep sleep.
