God dancing is hard! Jane is a bit too fast for me and now I'm tiered.
"Oh crap. Jane it's gone nine you've got to go to bed." I say to her whilst she is still dancing.
"Awww please Sarah!" She begs
"No seriously it needs to be bedtime. Now do you need any help at all or do you need me to read you a story?"
"I'm not a baby Sarah! It's fine I will just get my PJs on and go to bed"
"Right okay. Goodnight"
Jane runs upstairs and I start to tidy up the living room and put the game away.
"Hey Sarah, do you want a drink?" I hear Ethan's voice say from behind me.
"Oh yeah that would be great thanks"
Ethan leaves the living room and into the kitchen, some people are strange about their house and where they can eat or drink, so I just follow him into the kitchen.
"Coke?" He asks me
"Yeah sure thanks" I respond
Ethan hands me the coke and gets himself one as well and we sat at his kitchen counter.
"Did you have fun with Jane dancing?" He asks me with a laugh.
"I'm very tiered now. You should of come and showed me some of your moves" I say with a wink
"Maybe next time." He says as he rolls his eyes
"I have a question for you Ethan"
"Go on what is it?"
"Why do you need a babysitter? Your mom said something happened"
"Basically I was with Benny playing and Jane left the house and she said she saw something that scared her, she still hasn't told us properly what she saw"
"What did she say about it?"
"She said there was some guy who got taken and it sounded like he got eaten. It was all very strange, but obviously she is a child and they have a very crazy imagination."
"Someone got eaten?"
"Yeah I don't know? But because I let her leave and wasn't actually watching her my mom told me that she doesn't trust me to look after her anymore"
"Well I'm with your mom, you should be watching your little sister and not letting her leave the house on her own at that age"
"I know... it was stupid of me. When my mom told me I was getting a babysitter I was so embarrassed and worried of who it might be"
"It is pretty embarrassing for you at your age to have a babysitter"
"I'd like to think technically you are Jane's babysitter and not mine"
"Does it make you feel more manly if we say that then?"
"Ha. Yes of course"
"Why were you worried of who it might have been?"
"Well it might of been some old lady who is strict or some angry man who shouts at us"
"Well I'm not a professional babysitter, so you are lucky as I won't shout or be strict"
"Yep. I am lucky it is you"

The vibe in the room has sort of changed to an odd flirty sort of vibe and I don't know why? I'm not attracted to this nerd! He is nerdy and so NOT my type! I like a bit of a bad boy who is cool and not some... some nice guy who is sweet and cute... His hair is really cute as well and his face looks really sweet and his blood smells amazing and to be fair he is wearing a nice aftershave that smells amazing as well, but even if I did like him (which I don't) I need to stay away from him anyway as I can't date anyone because I'm a undead creature. I'm just going to stop and drink my coke and that's it and not think about it.

"So what made you choose this babysitting job?" Ethan asks me
"Well I was looking for some extra work, but I needed it to fit around the cafe as well and I saw the ad for this and thought I should give it a go" I respond
"I'm glad you did..."
"Oh really? Why's that then?"
"Because I get to hang out with a cool babysitter every Friday"
"Oh so you think I'm cool do you? Unfortunately I can't say the same about you"
"HEY! I may be a bit of a nerd, but I'm not that bad"
"Hmmm... I don't know about that. I don't really know much about you apart from your name, your house and some of your family members"
"I don't know anything about you. You didn't even tell me your name when I first met you. All I know is that your name is Sarah and you live on your own in an apartment"
"That's all there really is to be honest. I don't live a very interesting life"
"I feel like you do. There is something about you that you aren't telling anyone and I've seen bits of it"
"What do you mean you've seen bits of it?"
"Well I sometimes get a vision and when we were in the cafe I got a vision of you"
"What do you mean by vision? Is it just random stuff in your head?"
"No. Listen it doesn't matter, but I got an odd vision of sharp teeth or something along them lines"
WHAT?!? Oh my god! Does he know I'm a vampire? How did he get a vision of that? I need to push him away from that and make him think he is crazy!
"Sharp teeth? My teeth are normal thanks. You can take a look if you want" I laugh and then smile at him showing my teeth
"Nope I don't see any sharp teeth, just a..." Ethan says as he gets close to me
"Just a what?"
"Just a nice... Ummm... pretty... Ummm... smile"
Awww how sweet of him. I never really speak to people nowadays after everything happened and now I feel this odd connection between Ethan and I and I don't know what to do with it. He is really cute, but no Sarah! He is not your type and you can't be with anyone! Get that through your head! You are just feeling this way because you've been alone for awhile that's all it is... Oh wait why am I now leaning in for a kiss with Ethan?

I start to lean in and I think it takes him a second to realise what's happening and then he starts to lean in to, our lips are pretty much about to touch
"WE ARE HOME" Ethan's mom shouts as she comes through the front door
Ethan and I quickly pull away from each other and just sort of look at each other awkwardly
"Uhhh... I best get going then" I say to Ethan as I power walk out of the kitchen to see Mrs Morgan and Mr Morgan.
"Hey Sarah. Did everything go okay?" Mr Morgan asks.
"Yep. Everything was fine" I respond
"Right here is your money and we will contact you about next Friday how does that sound?" Mrs Morgan says.
"Sounds great thank you. See you guys later" I say to them and I quickly exit their home.

Crap! What the hell happened in there? It didn't mean anything at all! I do not like him in that way! I had a bad time with relationships and I've been alone for so long and this is the longest conversation I've had with someone in awhile that's why I was acting like that towards him. It's NOTHING else. I promise...
