Last day of summer so very depressing. I wanted to run more and sleep in. Avery didn't hang out with me a lot. The most we ever talk is in the hallways of the house and we just say hi. He was the popular boy at school. So that makes me his freak cousin.

I get up from bed and look in the mirror. My black hair is in a mess. I get the hair color from my mom. Besides vampires always have a shade of black hair. But, my eyes were nothing compared to my skin. They were ocean blue. I always got complements on them. They were of course from my dad, werewolf. So I guess my coloring were very rare. It made me feel special when I said that.

When I finally decided to take a shower, I choose a simple blue short selves shirt and some shorts with some rips in it. I start to walk down stairs and see nobody here. I head for the fridge and see a note on it.

Sorry not to be here when you wake up. Me and Avery left early to go shopping for back to school cloths and some food. See you around 1:30.

Awesome I had the whole house to myself for a couple hours. I pour myself some cereal and turn on the TV. When I look out the window I notice something. Moving trucks.


They were parked outside of the house across the street. Nobody has lived there for a while, well that's what Aunt Lucy says. It was a cute house. It was gray with a bay window in the living room. Giving a great view of inside my living room. I'm pretty sure it 4 bedrooms.

I look at the time and see that its 11:30 and I should go out and do something. The first thought was my dog. Dakota. I loved my dog. He's always there when I'm sad, he doesn't judge me, and he is not scared of me. I mean who wouldn't be scared of me. My aunt Lucy is a werewolf and so is her son. They don't fear me. But in their eyes I can still see their fear when I'm angry or upset.

My secret is the only thing stopping me from have any friends. What if one day I lash out and I can't control what happens and I hurt somebody. Sometimes I scare myself. Having a craving for human blood and ripping someone apart horrified me. To keep my energy I have to drink animal blood. That's what my walks are for. To hunt.

I taught my dog to do what he wants when I'm hunting he usually wonders off but I can easily find him. He doesn't look at me with horror when I still have blood on my face. If I was just a werewolf I wouldn't have to drink animal blood. I would just eat a lot of meat and have to shift here and there. Being both was hard. But I thought myself unique and one in a million.

I call my dogs name and he imminently comes. "Hi buddy ready for a walk" he starts jumping and getting all excited. I get up and put on some white converses and head out the back door just when I remember I hadn't got the mail. It was the chore I was assigned the first day I moved in with my aunt and It turned into a habit. I walk back inside and leave the dog in the backyard. I open the front door and start walking out. A black suv pulls up to the house. My guess is the family that is moving in. out steps a blond hair mom and a black hair dad. A girl who seems a couple years younger than me. Last two boys who seemed my age, but for their size maybe older. One had night sky black hair and the other blond. 

I then realize I was staring and when I start walking back to the door I get this feeling of being watched, before I turn the knob on the door to go inside I turn around and see the black haired boy staring holes into me. I wave and he just smiles and turns around. Wow. Talk about rude.

When I finally get into a depth of the woods I let Dakota off the leash and he runs around. I already ate yesterday and I knew I wasn't going to be hungry for a couple more days. I take one more step then I hear something. Like someone was walking toward me. Because of heightened senses and good hearing. I thought that the sound might be coming from a while away. But the footsteps were pick up. I called my dog name no answer nothing. Then I hear something from behind me and there he was.

The black haired boy with my dog right at his side. I suddenly realize I was just staring I started to talk.

"What are you doing with my dog?" I said so I wouldn't sound so scared. I'm usually not scared but this boy made me feel unsafe.

"I saw him walking around with no owner and I was concerned" his voice sounded like an angel wait did just think that.

"Well if you ever see him alone please leave him alone he knows where to go and thank you for your concern"

"What are you doing out here anyway? It's a little far away for a girl to be by herself"

"I can easily take care of myself and if you will excuse me I have to go" he steps aside and I put my collar back on Dakota and start walking away when he says

"Nice to meet you neighbor" I didn't want to be rude so I turned around

"Nice to meet you too" I turn around and there he is right in front of me inches away. How did he get there so fast?

"Can I have a name?"

"Kaylee"

"Well hi Kaylee my name is Xander"

Even his name is cute. Wait. Stop thinking these thoughts they are bad thoughts. You don't let someone into your life that you could kill in seconds.

"Nice to meet you and all but I have to go" and with that I was gone I started to walk back to the house. the whole time I felt, no I know I was being watched.
