* Flash Back *
Chicago 1920
I was wearing a cream colored flapper outfit as I powdered my nose backstage , before my performance .I was a little nervous and I took a deep breath and applied a deep cherry red lipstick before walking out onstage . I heard a little clapping as I reached the mic .
One man in particular caught my eye .
His eyes filled with wonder as I opened my mouth and started to sing . I couldn't remember why I hadn't sang in such a long time .
But then the audience seemed to be in a trance with every note I hit .
I finished the song and when it ended , I got a standing ovation and then , I saw the man making his way throught the crowd . I was backstage , when all of the sudden I saw him in the mirror behind me .
" Hello . " I said .
" You were exceptional . It's like you put the whole crowd in a trance with one note . " he said , looking me over .
" Imagine that . " I said giggling .
" I'm Edward . Edward Mason . "he said , taking my hand in his and kissing it .
" I'm Sydney Petr- Duckett . Sydney Duckett . " I said , almost giving him the right name .
" I was wondering, Ms. Duckett , if you'd like to join me in a walk ? " he asked .
I smilded .
" I'd be delighted . " I said .
We linked arms and walked out of the theatre . It was late .... maybe 10:00 P.M .
We were walking and we stopped on a bridge.
" I know what you are . " he said .
" Oh ? " I asked calmly , as if it didn't bother me at all .
" You're a vampire . But why aren't your eyes red or ... amber ? " he asked .
" Because I am older then you ... by a good few hundred years . I was born in 1477 . I said . But you . You are new . A new vampire. Don't think you can fool me . " I said smirking .
Edward looked a little uncertain .
" Don't worry . I won't hurt you . We can be friends . Best friends . I'll show you everything I know Mr . Mason . " I said .
Edward smiled .
" I'd like that . " he said .
I nodded .
My eyes started to bruise and he noticed .
" I guess it's time to eat . " I said as fog decended over Chicago .
