Cecilia was still awake and reading a book when Elena opened her bedroom door and peered in at her. Jack was asleep in bed.

"What?" asked Cecilia, looking at Elena.

"Nothing, just checking," Elena replied.

"Checking for what?" asked Cecilia.

"Making sure that you two are okay," replied Elena, before leaving.

"Okay?" replied Cecilia confused.

"Your sister's weird," Jack muttered.

"I know," Cecilia said. "Go back to sleep."

"He's driving me crazy," said Alex as he paced the garage

"He's driving me crazy," said Alex as he paced the garage.

"Oh, no, what a nightmare," Cecilia replied. "All siblings do that to each other."

"Is he always like this when his brother comes to town?" Ricky asked.

"Yes," replied Jack.

Dylan walked into the garage, and Cecilia to go give him a hug, and kissed him on the cheek. Dylan seemed surprised by that and sat down on a chair.

"And where have you been?" asked Alex.

Dylan shrugged, "Sorry, I thought I was being annoying. And I was just really tired."

"I'm always tired and not even I sleep as much as you do," Jack said to Dylan.

"'Thought you were being annoying?' The fuck does that mean?" Alex muttered.

"Sam was trying to talk to me," Dylan said.

"Jesus Christ, what does he want to talk to you about?" Alex asked.

"He was just asking about why it looks like I haven't slept since he last saw me," Dylan said. "And he asked me if I heard what happened down at the cemetery."

"What happened at the cemetery?" asked Cecilia confused.

"Some asshole burnt some bodies there," said Dylan. "Apparently it was some drug deal that went bad."

"I never heard of drug dealers burning people," Ricky said. "That makes no sense."

"Yeah," replied Alex.

"Fucking vampires, man," Jack muttered to Cecilia.

Cecilia had to shrug at that.

"What was that?" asked Alex.

"Vampires," Cecilia said.

Alex looked really confused. "Vampires? As in the blood sucking people with fangs and shit?"

"Yeah," Jack said.

"Are you both high?" asked Alex.

"No," Cecilia replied.
