-Gregory's prov-

I woke up in Akiras closet and looked around 'o right I stayed over at that mortals house...' I opened the closet door to see the girl at her desk and I walked over to see she had fallen asleep doing some problems on a piece of paper and raised an eyebrow and walked over to her window to leave but I stopped and looked bak at her and looked around and didn't see anyone watching so I walked bak over to her and picked her up careful not to wake her and set her on her bed and put the covers over her. 'Mortals r so fragile...it's ridiculous...' He looks at her a bit more and just moves some of her hair out of her face and sighs a bit 'and yet we want to become human.' He gets up and goes over and leaves out of Akiras window and heads home.

-Akiras pro-

I woke up in the middle of the night hearing rocks thrown at my window as I sat up from bed 'wait...I wasn't in bed b4 was I?...I was doing my homework and then I fell asleep...so how' I look over at my closet door to see it open and I just shake my head and get up and go to my balcony and sees tony throwing stones "what's up tony?" He smiles "I'm going to the cemetery. Want to come?" I sighed "only we have school tomorrow and its late..." Tony looked down sadly and I rolled my eyes but smiled a bit "o alright. Ill b right down." I walked bak into my room and put my black converse on and quietly snuck down stairs and out the door to meet tony. "Alright let's go." I smiled and we headed to the cemetery.

I heard arguing "u bit him!?" I stopped dead in my tracks when I heard Frederick yell that but what really shocked me is who answered "just a taste." Gregory said plainly and I walked in a bit further and listened to the argument "was it worth betraying ur family!?" Gregory glared at his father "You're the traitor, forever denying the truth of us. We are the dark gods! But you have turned us into cowards. Sulking around our holes like worms!" I blinked stunned as Frederick growled "what would u have us do?" Gregory growled bak "fight back!" He shook his fist in the air "make these mortals blood run cold!" I stepped bak a bit. 'Is this really what Gregory wants...' Frederick sighed "And you could do it Gregory. You're young, strong, ruthless and willing to risk a stake through the heart to prove it." Gregory crossed his arms. "Better a stake then this prison!" Frederick looked at Gregory sternly "do you think me oblivious?" Gregory hands go to fists "What does it matter to you what I think? If I think?" I looked at him a bit shocked. '...Gregory...'

His father just keeps his stem voice "It matters greatly. I feel your sting." Gregory lets out a sarcastic laugh as I look up and see I giant light being dropped down into the cove. 'O shit...' I looked bak at Gregory "but you r Frederick the great. U feel nothing!" Right after that was spoken I heard rookery yell "let there b light!" Suddenly the giant light lit up the whole cove and all the vampires scream and I quickly run down and see Gregory in a corner trying to get away from the light so I run over and block the light the best I can and I look over to see Frederick perfecting the rest of his family with his body. "tony do something!" Tony looks around "tony a rock! Throw a rock as hard as u can!" Tony picks up a rock and chucks it and it breaks the light as Frederick falls bak against the stairs and I get up to have my hand grabbed and I look down at Gregory who's looking at me.

"how long.." He began but I finished for him "great to kno u hate mortals so much." I pulled my hand free and walked over as tony was talking to Frederick and Freda "he's very weak..." She said and tony smiled "then I kno just what u need." I sighed knowing were this was going and I looked down a bit and glanced at Gregory who wouldn't look at me now and so we went to the farm again so the vampires could feed and I sat outside and waited as Freda handed me a leash "can u please watch him dear?" I was confused but then saw Gregory attached to the leash with a strait jacket and muzzle on him and I tried to hold bak a laugh as Gregory glared at me a bit but sat down next to me as his family drank.

"Do u hate me now?" He asked and I looked at him "hates a strong word...I'm more disappointed...but hey wat did u mean about ur father not caring about what u think?" Gregory looked away "nothing..." I rolled my eyes "bull shit..." He glanced at me "then what about u? Where's ur real family?" I sighed "if I tell u then u answer my question. Deal?" He just sighed so ill take that as a yes. "When I was 8 years old my father left me and mother on our own...he said it was to find work but then we found out he moved out of state and we never heard from him again...and a few months ago my mom died in a car crash going to work...I had no relatives who wanted to take me in so I was put up for adoption and then found Merta and Tom and he got a job up here so we moved here and that's it. That's my story."

Gregory gave me a shocked look "ur dad just left?" I nodded "so just cuz u hate ur dad...just b glad he works heard enough to protects his family first..." Gregory looks away a bit "...I'm sorry.." I looked at him shocked "he don't apologize it's not like u." He smirks a bit but sighs "alright my turn I guess...my dad never listened to my ideas. I think he thinks of me as nothing but a screw up. I ether fight with him or piss him off." I look at him and nod in understanding "I doubt he thinks of u as a screw up...it's some choice u make r reckless." Gregory glares at me "hey let me finish." He sighs but nods for me to go on.

"He's just afraid u may do something and get urself and the family in danger...like biting someone...u leave marks on the neck and all ppl have to do is see the marks and they wil, get more ppl to hunt u down..." Gregory looks at me "u kno a lot for being a human" I smile a bit "relax I just read a lot of books and I kno what ppl do to things they see different then them...they see them as a threat and want to destroy them...it's just how a lot of ppl r...we all have a monster inside us..." Gregory tilts his head but nods. "I think I understand." I smile "good but it seems like ur staying at Tony's house. So b good and think about what I said about ur father." Gregory looked away but we both stood up and Freda took Gregory from me and they headed to Tony's and I waved and headed home as I snuck bak up into my room and layer down in my bed to see it was 4 in the morning 'just great...I get like 3 hours of sleep I have to get up...just great.' I close my eyes and fall asleep curled up into a ball.

-Gregory's prov-

We went down into Tony's cellar and I looked at my mother "mom can I go see...that mortal girl for a moment?" My mom just looked at me suspiciously and I sighed "I just want to thank her...for shielding from the light earlier..." My mom and siblings actually looked at me shocked "what?" I said and Anna smiled "o brother u seem to like akira u never say thank u to anyone." I glare a bit "I don't like her...and I never saw a reason to thank someone before.." I look bak at my mother "now can I go?" My mother sighed but took everything off me. "B quick about it and when get bak this stuff is being put right bak on." I rolled my eyes but nodded as I went up satires and out the door and I headed to Akiras room.

I made it to her balcony and saw her in her bed asleep and I walked up to her and just tapped her shoulder and she just rolled over 'really?' I frowned and grabbed her shoulders and shook her awake and her eyes widened when she was me "w-what r u doing here? And what happened to what u were wearing?" She asked and I rolled my eyes "never mind that will u? I just came to say...thanks...for what u did the cove." I glanced at her and she just smiled "ur very welcome Gregory I'm glad u and ur family r okay." She said nicely and I couldn't help but smile a bit 'maybe...just maybe I could like this mortal' I realized what I was thinking and quickly shook my head "but yeah that's it. Now go bak to sleep and don't ever mention this ever happened." She laughed a bit "alright I won't. Sleep well." I just nodded and walked over to her window "u kno in a strange way...I'm kinda happy I met a stupid mortal like urself." And with that I left out the window and headed bak to Tony's cellar and of course got that outfit put bak on me.
