          My casual routine. Wake up, think today is better, and have a smile. Yet, today was off. A nagging feeling in my chest just made the smile not appear. As I got up to do my routine, I noticed that it the sun was out, peeking out and onto the buildings of Paris. It's a bit late in the day...

         I walk into my work doing paper work and making sure this company stays a whole while I am at vacation. I'm thinking about California! Or, maybe the Bahamas. Either way would be better than here with these children...

        As the hours past, so does my patience for the people around me. Feeling a headache coming on, it's finally the end of the day; full of paperwork, meetings, advice, and even caffeine. I make sure everyone is out of the office and lock it up. As I go home, my thoughts drift off. Tonight seems like a good night to go out.

       Once at home, I get ready, knowing I'm not going there alone, I call up my friend. In the end, I act like a business women, I am actually a child in foul play...

          I call Katie, my best friend since the beginning of time college.

     "Hey what's up!" She greets, in her normal perky voice. "You wanna go to this bar with me? More guys here than usual!" Katie love's going to bars with me. I have an idea of why; maybe the fact that she likes going out with guys at night... A win-win; I won't be lonely, she gets to have some guys.

     "Oooo! One of those nights? I'm in...!" She perked up, the perky voice raises a bit. "Alright, see you soon Kate, I'll send you the address." I hanged up and sent her where the bar is. As I walk to the bar, I notice how lively yet stoic it is. Interesting....

     Entering this bar, I'm immediately hit with the smell of booze, sex, and smoke: the noise level rising with each step in. Disgusting but calming. I thought, just as a guy with blue eyes, black hair with blue dyed tips came up to me. He gave a slight smile, yet was still looking me over. Kinda cute...

           I smirked at him and he did the same. Kate eventually came and went with another guy. The guy in front of me bought me a couple of drinks but not enough I can't handle. Then suddenly, I closed my eyes for a second and I'm outside....With the guy?

"You would make a perfect target for one of my people." He suddenly said, yet with a gravel and graspy voice. I didn't understand what he was saying at all; or even the fact how I ended up out here. This is too confusing.

      The attractive stranger suddenly looked into my eyes, as if he was telling me to do something. In return; I froze. As much as I tried, I couldn't move a muscle. I was hyperventilating a bit, but still stayed calm. "Don't scream." He says, in a hushed tone. That was his final words until he showed his sharp teeth, looking as if it were a needle. He bite himself and gave me some of his blood.(If anyone see where I got this from, you get a cookie) I tried to spit out the metallic taste, yet his aggressive hold was too much.

          He looked back at me... Then opened his mouth wider. Suddenly the feeling of sharpness piercing my skin on my neck felt intense. I could feel the pain scorching up my spine, his grasp getting more hard. The feeling of myself draining was too much as I tried to get free; but unfortunately still paralyzed in place. I felt weak, the blood no longer leaving my body. His body language told me he wanted me to suffer. The guy carried me to a lake as it glisened as the moonlight touched it; where it would soon be where I would die. The man got into the lake; trying to get as deep as possible. Closing my eyes, I feel myself drop. Shooting my eyes open I feel myself sink, as if I was a sunken ship: never to be found again.

          I saw my killer, or perhaps blood-sucker killer walk out of the water- waving. I choked for air, only to find water in it's place. I can feel more but less pain than the vampire draining me. In my nose, my mouth, my ears; as water go into every passage way. Longing for air, I breathe in, only to choke as the water filled my lungs. I squirmed as I tried to get to the surface. No luck, as I could feel my heart beat slow down in my ears, as I can feel my body give up more or less. I stopped struggling as I got out my last breathe on this Earth.

    It felt like a long nap. A deep slumber, that you felt amazing yet tired. As if days has past, my energy regained yet still weak. Suddenly, my senses come back.

My eyes shot open. I'm still in the water, fish and other lake creatures swim past, flowing gracefully through the water. How am I still alive when I am suppose to be drowning? But didn't I already drown? I decided to swim swiftly to the top of the lake. Good news: it was still earth and the area I was last time. Bad news: As I look across the lake to the road, I see the man; the guy, that supposedly killed me. He gave a motion to come towards him. Still wary and hesitant, I take my chances and decide to go. I mean, he can't kill... Can he? As I got onto the pavement I could feel strength in my bones, all through out my spine to my skull. 

"Hey newbie. Yeah, it was unnecessary for me to dump you in the lake and drown you... But uh... I like a little fun." He chuckled a bit. Who does he think he is to kill someone and laugh?

"U-Um, what am I? And why am I so hungry..." I clenched my throat, feeling the pain in my stomach from the feeling of starvation. Then he laughed again. I swear, does he want to be a comedian? "Oh, sweet heart, I bit you remember! So, you're one of me now. My names Luka." He held out his hand. I shook it but he pulled me closer to him.

"Well, you need to feed before you die. And I have to get you a sun stone." He pulled me back to the bar where my friend still was. Luka looked around, as if trying to pick out or search for something. "Bit a human, then you'll be all better." 

"You mean k-kill them?!" I could feel my teeth hurt even more. "Well, either you die, or you can kill, or eat, a human. Your decision." Luka smiled a bit, running his tongue across his teeth. He walked over to one of the bartenders and got a drink. Meanwhile I was panicking, trying to find Kate as fast as possible. Maybe she knows what to do? I-I don't wanna be called crazy but I need help! Finally I spot Kate; drink in hand, laughing and smiling.

     I crash into her with such force, pulling us both to the side, as if I planned it. "K-Kate, I... I need to tell you something, please don't think I'm crazy..." Her eyes widened. "What? Go ahead (y/n), tell me... You're starting to freak me out."

     "I-I think I'm a vampire. This, uh.... This guy killed me, but... Oh shit, I'm still alive." I say in a shaky voice, my bottom lip trembling as if I was going to cry. No I will not cry... I can get through this. She can help...

     Kate's eyes suddenly widen, as if it were disbelief, yet there was a trace of sadness and shock. Does she know something?

     "Alright... Fuck... Uhm... I-I need to get you to your sister. She can help." She started looking around the bar for someone until her eyes spotted my killer. " Luka! Come on! We need to go!"

Wait...she knows him?
