The Deep Dark Stone Path

Chapter 7 - *Dalilah*

Chris and I talk for a long time. It turns out he lived here in Motanna till he was sixteen. Then one night he was walking over to his friends house and got kidnapped. The guy drugged Chris and made him deliver drugs to people. One day, Chris tried to run away, when the guy wasn't paying attention. The guy found Chris, before he could tell the police, and bit Chris on the neck. Chris woke up two weeks later, at night, in a dumpster in Alabama. Chris discovered he was a vampire and explored his powers. He couldn't go out in the day time. The sun gives him a rash. He can eat garlic and doesn't turn into a bat. He does have super strength, super speed, and can fly. He does have to drink blood to survive though. He can't eat human food or he will throw it up. He also can drink people's blood without them knowing and without turning them into a vampire. This is all so shocking, I have no clue how to feel about it. I look up at Chris and he smiles this wide smile and I can see his fangs. He says "Watch this." Chris opens his mouth and winces right before I hear a crack and his teeth look normal. My jaw drops. Chris laughs and says "My goodness you are so pretty." I blush and look at the floor. As soon as I look up, Chris leans in and kisses me. That was my first kiss. He pulls away as soon as he leaned in. I open my eyes and Chris is gone. I look around my room and don't see him. I look off the veranda and see him flying in the distance. This time I close my veranda doors. I turn off my lamp and lie down. Wasn't today interesting? I met a vampire. I am having a hard time processing this. Why did I let him kiss me when I don't know him and he snuck into my room. From now on I am keeping those doors locked.
