Sacrifices to save my family

The start of a new Journey

I never thought I would be able to leave them, but I did in the end. I just hope that they will understand why I did it why I had to leave. I will do anything to get back to them.

————————————————————
I had nowhere to go or to turn. This was my life now, forever moving on the road. I wonder where it will take me.

After several hours or running and not knowing where I was, I came across a town called Huntsville. I decided that this would be a good place to stay for a while and time to figure out what my next move is.

If I was going to stay here for a while I would have to blend in and make sure no one found out I was a vampire.  It would be extremely hard, but I knew I would be able to figure something out.

As I walked into the small town I came across a hotel, I went inside looking for anyone to see if I could get a room. Even though there would be a lot of people it wouldn't be a problem. I find it very easy to control myself around humans but I will still have to be careful.

I entered and the room was empty. I went up to the counter and  rang the doorbell. Within a minute someone had come.

" Welcome how may I help you" the women as the counter asked

" May I have a room please" I ask

" Yes of course, how long will you be staying?"

I hadn't thought about that maybe for now just a week and then from there I thought to myself.

" I'm not sure how long I am staying but could I have a room just for a week for now."

" I see no worries dear, you can stay however long you like and you can just pay me when you leave."

" Thank you" I say

" I just need you to sign in and fill out what your name is."

She handed me the papers and I signed them. I used my birth name, well a part of my birth name. I thought it would be too risky at the moment to use my name now. I wrote my name as Claire Mason. I then handed them back to the women.

" Thank you Claire " she said looking down at my name.

She led me to one of her rooms before saying " This is your room if you need anything feel free to find me." She then left me alone in what would be my new home for the meantime.

The room had a bed, a tv on the wall and space to put my stuff. It also had a desk I could use. Well I know I don't exactly need a bed as I don't sleep but it's still nice to have. I unpacked some of my stuff and sat at the desk. I got out my drawing pad and started to draw. I spent a few hours just drawing. I have always liked drawing, I find it helps me clear my mind and focus on the good things around me.  It was also a great way to distract myself from thinking about my  family. I wonder what they were doing now? Did my brother give them my letters?

Hi so I know it has been a while since I have updated and I'm sorry. I haven't had much time as I have had a lot of tests recently and I have been working on another book. It's a sort chapter but I will be posting very soon. I hope you like it. Please vote and feel free to leave a comment.
