I had just walked in and put my stuff on the kitchen counter when I heard a noise form the living room. "Hello Nickolas, may I help you?" I ask sitting down on a stool at the bar. "Perhaps, tell me about your visit to Nerva," he says stepping out of the shadows into the kitchen. Combing my fingers through my hair I say, "I drove over right after school to see Christopher. I parked out front and from there I walked to the East wing of the castle. I met with him in his room. We talked for about an hour. I then went to see Richard, and Rebecca." I paused so he could write it down.

"What time was it when you talked with your bother?" he asked looking up to me from his notepad. "It was 4:30 when I got to the castle and was 4:32 when I was with Chris. When I was with Richard and Rebecca it was 5:40. We had some blood laced wine in the library, " I told him as I got up. "What happened then?" he asked.

Grabbing a bottle of blood I said, "We talked for a while and then I left. It was 6:04 when I got in my car and left. I came straight home from there." "Is that everything?" he asked sitting the notepad on the counter. "Yes, it is," I tell him sitting the bottle down. "And that was the only time you have been there this month, right? " he asks walking around. Looking at him I say, "Yes, the only other time I was there of lately was when we brought Richard back from those drinks we all had." "Alright, that will be all. Thank you for your time," he says picking up his notepad and pen.

"Nick, do you know anything about who did it?" I ask him just as he is about to walk out of the kitchen. Turning around he says, "Not yet. My men are working around the clock. We are afraid that who ever did it will try again. That's why we are questioning everyone. Richard and Rebecca are heavy guarded day and night." "That's good. I hope you find something soon," I said as I walked into the living room. "As do I. Well, I will be leaving now. I will call if I have anymore question for you," he says just before he vanishes running out the door at vampire speed.

Walking into the library I pull out a book, Vampire Academy. Some would find it ironic for a vampire to read a book about vampires. But I enjoy reading all kinds of books. I like seeing how close their version of vampires are to the real thing.

After spending two hours reading I decided to put it away.

Walking into the kitchen I pick up my stuff and take it into my office. I sit down at my desk and take out my sketchpad. I didn't even realise what I was drawing until I stopped. Maya, the one person who is always on my mind, that's who I was drawing. I was drawing her like she was when we were talking. Her long hair in soft waves around her shoulders going down her back, her sweet smile, her dark brown eyes that look as if they never end, her full pouty bottom lip that would make any man want to kiss her, and that is exactly what I wanted to for every time I see her. By the time I was finished drawing, it was close to midnight. After putting it away I grab the book I was reading earlier and go to my bedroom to read.

BEEP!..............BEEP!............BEE. I absolutely hate alarm clocks, I think to myself as I hit the alarm clock to turn it off. Sitting up I look at my phone to see a message saying that I could take the day off from the office. "Well, that is just fantastic," I grumble as I am about to get up. "What is it," Eve ask wiping her eyes. "I got a message saying that I don't have to come into work," I say getting up and walking over to the window. "Then why are you complaining, come back to bed," she says patting the side of the bed I sleep on. "I would but, I wouldn't be able to sleep now that I am awake," I say looking out the window. Pulling the covers over her shoulder she says, "Fine, I didn't want you to anyways. Good night."

I walk over to her and crawl over to her on our king size bed. Laying down I pull her to me saying, "Mrs. Black, I am hungry and need food now before my belly button eats my backbone." Opening one eyes to look at me before closing it back she says, "I can't do anything with out proper sleep." "You get up every morning to make mine and Maya's breakfast, so get up and get to cooking," I say gently shaking her. "But you don't have work today so that means I don't have to, so if you want something to eat go make it yourself," she says in a voice barely audible. "Alright, I will wait," I whisper leaning down to kiss her hair.

I just laid there holding her and looked at her for a little while. I have the most beautiful woman in the world I think to myself looking at her. She has lightly tanned skin, long back hair that goes to her waist, 5ft 7in , and gorgeous green eyes. She is my complete opposite with my 6ft 5in, dirty blond hair, dark brown eyes, deep tan from years of being in the sun when I was young. Closing my eyes I whispered, "I love you," just before falling back to sleep holding my wife.

Shaking me awake, I turn to Eve saying, "What it's still early." With her hands on her hips she says, "It almost 11:30. Now get up and get dressed." I get up and head to the bathroom for a shower as she walks out. I can't believe I sleep so long, I think as I step into the shower. After my shower I get dressed and walk down stairs to see Alex and Maya sitting on the couch laughing at something on the tv. When I stand in front of them I ask sarcasticly, "What is so funny? I want to hear the joke." They stop laughing and look at me then bust out laughing again. I shake my head as I walk into the kitchen.

Walking up behind Eve I wrap my arms around her pulling her against me and kiss her on the cheek. "Hello beautiful, how are you?" I ask whispering in her ear." "I am good now. How about you, did you sleep good?" she says cutting some sandwiches in half. "I was, when I was holding you," I say slowly placing light kiss on her neck. "You must have it took me about five minutes to get out of your arms," she says looking up to me, "I get one arm off and the other halfway before the first is back." Chucking I say, "Well I didn't want you to leave."

My dad had just walked away when Alex said, "Hey, let's go swimming." "Alright, I'll go get my swimsuit on," I say as I get up. Once in my room I grab my hot pink bikini and a black wife beater. Pull it all on I look in the mirror to see the pink skirt bottoms going to midthigh, the black beater covering most of the bikini top only showing the stapes around my neck, and my hair up in a bun on the back of my head. Picking up two towels I quickly go out back to the pool.

When I set the towels down I turn around to see Alex doing a cannonball off the diving board.

The power of his dive caused water to rain on me a little. Ready to get in I run and jump off the side of the pool. When I come up Alex swims over to me and shoves me back underwater. Coming up sputtering I say, "Don't ever do that to me again." "Come on Maya you use to do it to me all the time when we where kids," he says circling me. "That's different. I can do that to you, but you can't do it to me," I say just before shoving him under. Swimming as fast as I can to the steps he catches me just before I can reach them. "ALEX STOP! " I scream when he starts tickling me. If we were not in the shallow end I probably would have drowned. Laughing he finally stops and pulls me out of the pool.

Stepping out I notice that my parents are sitting at the the table over on the side with sandwiches. Sitting down I pick up two half sandwiches and start eating. Halfway though the meal dad asks, "So what are you planning on doing for college," looking at Alex. "Well, sir, I plan on following in my father's footsteps and become a lawyer. I am going to the community college for two years and then I will be going to a university, " he tells my dad. Nodding his head dad says, "That's great new. I am sure you will be a wonderful lawyer just like your father. Are you planning on living in the community your parents live in?" "Yes, sir," Alex says glancing over to me before he starts eating again. After eating we set up the net for a game of volleyball. Mom and dad have a score of 14 to 18 by Alex and me. In the end we tied 20 to 20 before we decided to quite.

After I change into a white t-shirt and black pajama pants I get in bed and turn on the TV to watch Red Ridinghood. Just as it is coming on Alex walks in with a gray tank top and pinstriped pajamas on. "Hey mind in I join you," he asked leaning against the door. "Sure, just turn out the light first. Please," I say before turning back to the movie. After tuning off the lights he quickly get on the bed beside me under the covers. "Have you seen this movie before? " he asks when he see what is coming on. "Yep," I reply. "Would you have stayed and waited for him if you were her even tho his is a monster?" he asked me. I turn to see him starring at me waiting for my answer. "I have read somewhere that, Love is blind. So if love is blind what does it matter if the person you love is a man, monster or an angel? If that person was my true love then, yes, I would wait," I tell him sincerely. With a small smile he says, "I would too." After finishing the movie he gets up to put on an other one, What Happens in Vegas. Just as he is about to get back on the bed a person knocks loudly on the door before it slowly opens.
