Yashmin's POV

"Tomorrow is to your birthday girl ", said Lily.

"I can't believe they are making you spend it with them", said Lilian.

"We can always meet up later right", asked Mark.

"Right Yash", added Dew.

"Right am just doing a family dinner thing, you know early. You will all be at the party", I told them.

"Wait you are having a party"  said Lilian in a panic.

"Yes of course I am", I said.

"You didn't say that before"said Lily.

"I know, I just found out myself. My grandma and grandad are throwing it for me. As my present and as a way of introducing me to a few important people he said" , I responded.

"Important", said Lillian in a shout.

I looked up to see lily dragging her off. "See you later,  we have to go get dresses", shouted Lilly.

"But school isn't even over yet", I shouted back.

"You know that it's  no use right", giggled Mark.

I looked at Dew to see him laughing.

I just got up and made my way to my next class.

The following day
Yashmin's birthday

Yashmin's POV

"Yash!!!!! Get downstairs now!!!", shouted my mother.

"But mom", I responded.

"Right now", she responded.

I made my way downstairs to see what my mother was shouting about. From the past few days, she has been cranky and really dramatic.

"Yes Mom", I said as I entered. Before she could answer, my granddad and grandma shouted happy birthday in union.

"What are you doing here, I didn't expect to see you guys until later", I said to them while avoiding my mother's gaze.

"Today is a very special birthday, so we came down here to wish you happy birthday in person. Later you will be officially welcome into the Jones family", said granddad. "Now come give grandpa a hug", he said.

He barely finished his statement before I went running to him. I accidentally knocked him to ground and he started laughing.

"Yashmin no vampire speed in the house!!", shouted my mom.

"Am sorry grandpa", I said.

"It's ok my little vampire, you are coming into your own. You will soon gain full control. Now be a darling and help Maxwell to take our bags up to their respective rooms", he continued.

Wait did he just say Maxwell, I thought  fixating on his name. To the point where everything else that followed out of his mouth, was in vain.

"Go on", said grandpa.

I walked over to him and push my hair behind my ears in embrassment. I didn't know why it matter but I felt akward in my pajama pants and oversized T-shirt.

Meanwhile the yellow in his eyes reflected the glorious sunshine. His blonde mess hair, complement the three yellow speckles under his each eyes. His  lips reminded of cherries after they have been washed and placed in the freezer. He was nicely put together. He has no reason being this attractive in the morning. I thought to myself with sweaty palms.

"Hi blue", he said. It sounded really cool and casual. I thought I would mimic his tone.

"Um....hhhhhhhhhhhhi", I  said.

"So where to", he asked me as he gathered up some of the bags and I took up what I could.

I took him to each room one by one and as soon as I was finished.  And he went into his room to unpacked. I hurriedly to my room to start my sentencing.

"Life for being so damn weird", I said to myself as I fall back onto my bed.

Quickly I took up the phone and punched in the number.

Phone ringing
Phone answered

Yashmin: Lily he is here

Lily: who is?

Lilian: wait is that Yash. Tell her we found the perfect dresses for tonight

Yashmin : Maxwell

Lily: Lilian you have got to hear this, listen. Girl you are now on speaker but don't worry we are alone in my room.

Lilian: what's happening Yash.

Yashmin: he is here,  that guy I told you about. He is here.

Lily: just act normal, you will be fine.
Lilian: Lily quit being mean, Yash don't know how to be normal. I say avoid him like the plague.  Haha

Yashmin: I don't know why I thought calling you guys would be useful. See you later at the party.

Lily: speaking of party. Did you invite that weirdo Leona.  If not can you please keep it that way.

Yashmin: Lily  you don't have to be mean, she is my friend too and so she is invited as well. I have not been paying her much attention lately and we use to be inseparable. I feel guilty.  Later.

Phone call ended

Yashshauna's POV
The minute Yashmin, Maxwell and the doctor left for upstairs Murron's dad, called me aside and gave me a heartfelt apology.

I forgave him instant, I now knew how he landed such a beauty woman.  He was a charmer and not only that  but he was believable.

We both decided we would put the past behind us and focus on the future as he didn't have much time left.

I greeted Murron's mom warmly as I have always done and then she proceeded to help me prepare for the family diner. After she washed her hands.

"Will you excuse me", said Murron's dad. "It is time for my medicine", he said as he proceed upstairs .

"Let me come with you dad", said Murron.

"Don't be foolish,  I'll soon be back. I am going to take my medicine, get Maxwell and meet you in the living room for the game", he said.

"Ok", Murron responded.

Yashmin's POV

While I had the option of hiding.  I couldn't as I was hungry.  With Maxwell in his room. This is the right time for breakfast. I thought as I hurried out my room.

On my way down I saw grandpa in his doctor's room. I was about out to call him, When I saw him bit into his doctor's neck.

I quickly ran down stairs and into the living room.

"Dad I just saw grandpa, killing his doctor in our guest room", I said, as my dad turned around to face me in a hurry. I could see the horror on his face.
