Hunter walked into his house and saw that his mother, Bianca, like always, was sitting on
the couch watching T.V. He plopped down beside her and started eating the cookie. The cookie
was crunchy on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside. Hunter loved it. He thought it tasted
delicious.
Hunter finished chewing and asked his mother what show she was watching.
"I forgot the name."
"What is it about?"
"There's this boy and he has a rock in his belly and he is the only boy to have it.
Everyone else are girls, and they fight monsters and stuff." Bianca explained.
Hunter yawned. "Isn't this a kid's show?"
"Yeah, but they deal with adult issues and the music is cool."
Hunter laid his head on his mother's lap. If someone were to walk in right now they would
probably think they were siblings. No one would suspect they were vampires. Hunter didn't have
the stereotypical pale skin that most people think vampires have. He had chocolate skin and dark,curly hair. Bianca looked around the same age as Hunter and she had the same dark hair. If
someone say them, they wouldn't think, "That's a lovely son you have there Bianca." In some
strange way Bianca actually looked younger than Hunter. That's the one of the things Bianca
hated about being a vampire. No one recognized her motherliness.
She rubbed Hunter's head and asked about his day.
"Did you know there was a bakery called Sinclair's here?"
"Yes, It has been here or a while."
"Oh."
"Did you go there today?"
"Yes."
"That is good." Bianca started humming a lullaby that Hunter's dad used to sing.
"I heard a joke today."
"Is it a pun?"
"Of course."
Bianca groaned but said, "Okay, go."
"The hokey pokey..." Hunter paused, " Wait, nevermind I forgot."
Bianca laughed and Hunter thought it sounded better than Alex's donkey, he hah.
Hunter still had a bit of cookie left so he decided to wrap it up and save it for later.
Bianca's humming lulled him to sleep and he dreamed about Alex's laugh.
