Chapter Three

Henry McMillan Becomes My Babysitter

I would like to thank xFallenSpirt13x for once again another review and also some other nice people BTRgirl12348, and kidxsyd. I would like to thank you all for reviewing and being so nice!

Let's try to get it to 7 reviews guys before my next chappy!

April's POV

This was NOT going to work out. My parents wanted to get me a babysitter for the weekend while they are at their jobs and I'm home alone. Do they get that me not being able to speak does NOT make me mentally disabled (I wanted to put mentally retarded but thought that would be offensive).

I watched all the same in agony as the clock handles made their way around. 10 minutes until my babysitter came. Worse of all he is in my grade! To make it even worse if any of you picked up I said he (which you hopefully realize then that he is a guy).

I heard the doorbell ring. FRICK!

"April can you get the door it's your babysitter! I'm kind of busy right now and have to,"

She left before she even finished her sentence. Wow. I feel loved.

I dragged myself downstairs and opened the door.

"Hi! I'm Henry! I'm gonna be your babysitter little….Oh wow. You're my age!" Henry said.

I nodded my head and motioned him inside. I took out my notepad and wrote,

Hello Henry! I'm April I'm mute so I can't speak. TV's around the corner and to the right there is a bell system rigged up in my house I'll ring the bell incase of trouble. Don't worry about me otherwise I just have overprotective parents who think I'm retarded because I can't speak.

I smiled handed him my notebook with my message and went up in my room.

I really didn't have much to do in my room just a mass collection of books, a TV, and the homework I needed to do.

Well. Better just do the inevitable.

I pulled out my homework and began. I heard the bell ring. Was Henry in trouble? Hmmm. Maybe that will prove to my parents it's a bad idea to leave me with a baby sitter after all.

Well. Then again if it turned out Henry got cut really badly or something then I would have to be the one to clean that up and that wouldn't be very fun so…..might as well go check up on him.

I went downstairs cautiously and walked into our TV room.

Henry was sitting there fine looking clueless.

I walked over and slapped Henry on the head with my hand (I had given Henry my notebook earlier with the note). I gave him a 'What the Hell' look.

"Oh. Sorry your parents wanted me to do that to see if you came down. Also, how do you work this TV?"

I walked over turned on the power button and handed him the remote. Then left the hopeless cause (Henry) and went up to my room.

A few minutes later I heard the bell again.

Just ignore it April, I told myself.

It rang again.

Gosh this was annoying.

Once again it rang.

Will he quit it?

I heard a scream.

Really faking now are we?

I heard glass shattering.

If he just broke a window I was going to kill him.

Might as well see what he broke.

I hate him.

I walked downstairs ready to hit him in the head. I stopped as soon as I saw a dark red liquid on the walls.

Oh shit.

I knew all too well what this meant.

Vampires.

Oh shit.

I had had my experience with vampires in the past. They are the ones that took away my voice.

Fricktards.

Also, my eyes. That is why it's such a touchy subject. No one would believe me if I told them. I'd sound insane if I told them.

I ran into the room Henry was in. All I saw was blood and a broken window. Frick! The stupid vampire broke my window! Oh, whoops and Henry had been taken too. Sorry Henry.

I looked around for clues to where he went.

I surprisingly found a note. If he left a note then he must have know that he was going to get attacked. All the note said was,

Get Vlad and give him this note

-your babysitter Henry

OH SHIT!
