Ryan's POV
It's March 8th, 2016. 2am and I'm alone in the woods just thinking. I pop my collar and push my dark brown hair back out of my face and kick a rock. I look down at my pale hands. Guess it's time for another spray tan. You're probably wondering why I'm in the woods and how I became a vampire. It was Friday the 13th. How cheesy, but it's true. I was bored and my parents were fighting so I snuck out. I remember my friend saying there was a party at 5462. I wander to a dark house address 5426. I didn't realize I went to the wrong house until it was too late. I was 19 years old and knocked on the door. "Hi. You must be one of our guests." I pale man says. "Um...yeah." I say. "Come on in." He says grabbing my arm and pulling me in the house. He bites my shoulder and I yell out in pain. I see black and then hit the ground. When I woke up I was in a room surrounded by other vampires. I looked down to see my skin was pale and I ran to a mirror. I couldn't see my reflection. I run out of the house as fast as I can and run home. For two years I just got spray tans and avoided mirrors and nobody suspected anything. On my 21st birthday my parents noticed I hadn't changed since I was 19. They were going to take me to the doctor the next morning. When I went to bed that night my parents fought again. My dad got mad and threw his cigarette on the ground which caused a fire. I jumped out my window and ran. I continued to work in a restaurant and got my own apartment. I worked out a lot and well let me just say. I'm ripped AF. I lived like that for awhile and still am. I'm 22 now and have a pretty boring life. Well I've been 22 for the past 30 years, but whatever. So I was born in 1965, so I've been "alive" for 51 years and am still 22. Crazy. Any way...Today I decided to take a walk in the woods behind my apartment and think. My black button up shirt is buttoned once revealing my abs and chest. I hear crying and look up to see a young girl she looks to be about 16 or 17. She's sitting against a tree crying into her hands. She's hugging her legs against her chest. She looks up at me and I raise my eyebrows and weakly smile. She looks down again and I sit beside her. She moves away. "Who are you?" She asks. "I'm Ryan." I say taking her hand. I kiss her hand and she blushes. "What are you doing out here in the woods at 2am?" I ask. "I was gonna ask you the same thing." She says letting go of my hand and wiping her eyes. "I'm taking a walk. Going over my complicated life." I say. She smiles and says "I know what you mean." I smile and ask "Do you want to talk?" She looks down and whispers "My dad...raped me and my mom." I put my hand on her cheek and tears run down her cheek. "Nobody wants me. Nobody cares." She whispers. I pull my collar down and show her where I was bitten. "What happened?" She asks. I tell her the story. Her eyes get big and she asks "So you're a vampire?" "Yeah, but nobody knows. I get spray tans and avoid mirrors." I say. "Wow." She says. I push her hair back behind her ear. "I guess we're both broken." I whisper. More tears roll down her cheek. "It really...hurt." She cries. I put my arm around her and she cries into my shoulder. "I've been trying to stay strong, but I'm so...so scared." She cries. "Shh." I whisper and rub her shoulder. "Do you want to go back to my place?" I ask. She hesitates and says "Ok." I smile and help her up. She holds onto my arm and I smile down at her. "Don't worry nothing is going to happen to you." I say. She nods and we walk to my apartment.
