Chapter 1 - First Sighting (Begining)

I sit here...I write this story. Why? Because Ive held it in for too long.
You probably wonder what I speak of, yes? I speak of my encounter with a vampire.
I wouldnt and shouldnt expect you to beleive me, now should I? But, so many people
beleive in vampires. I guess im going to take a chance to explain it.

I open the oak door to the room which will now be my new bedroom. I peer
inside the blanch, bleach white room and turn on the light. The light adds more
brightness to the room than it had before. I look around the room, picturing where
which piece of furniture will go where. I notice, the room is larger than any of the
other rooms. Why this is, I still havent figured out because most houses of this
time have the same sized bedrooms. I turn off the light, shut the door and walk down the
hallway to the staircase. Turning around, I stare down the empty and dark hallway to only
see it is empty as it was before, yet I get the feeling someone was watching me.

Once downstairs, I walk out the door to help my mother and brother carry furniture
into the house. We did this for a few good hours. We got all of the furniture into the house
and into the right rooms. It was now 5:00 in the evening, we started at 12 o'clock in the after-
noon. I walk upstairs, and peer into my bedroom once again. Sitting down on my bed, I look out
the window at the pale gray sky. Its daylights savings time, this means the sun will start going
down around 4 o'clock. I just sit there...gazing out the window...watching...waiting for the sun to
finally leave the star stricken sky and let the luna rise to light the eyes of the night walkers as they
use it to guide their way through the world.

I fall sideways, sleeping. I can feel the night creep upon me in my slumber.
I wake to hear a tapping on the window by my bed. I look at the clock. 12 midnight.
I sit up and rub my eyes, attempting to rid of the bit if tiredness. I stand up from my
bed to tend to the clattering at my window. I look out the window. To my fright, I see
two...piercing...crystal like...ice blue eyes peering in the window at me. Startled and
horrified, I scream falling backwards and hitting my head off the floor.

The next morning I wake to see my mother and brother at my side. At once
they ask me what had happened and why I had screamed. I couldnt tell them what
I saw, theres no way that they'd believe me. They'd reasure me that I was seeing things...
or I saw a reflection of a light...or something or another. So...I told then the only thing that
came to mind. I saw a spider. Silly yes, but they fell for it! I said it startled me so I screamed
and that I had tripped and fell backwards.

We didnt do much for the rest of the day. Just put acessories and items where they
belonged. For the whole day I was terrified to go into any rooms without a light on.
My brother taunted me for this. I only sneered at him, and mocked him right back.
My brother was 18 at the time. There was only a 3 year difference inbetween our ages,
but it seemed so much larger, it more a like seemed as if I was the older one and he was
even younger than my true age. Immature, yes! But, I still loved him. I had to...he was
my brother! He helped when I needed him to althought he could be very......rude.

It was night time again. The whole day not one thought of the night before came
into mind. But now it did...since I entered my bedroom. I had the chills, and I couldnt stay
calm. My bedroom, for some reason, was colder than any room in the house. I lay down on
my bed, wondering what it was that was at my window the night before. I lay there...for hours
and hours thinking about it. Finally, I fell asleep. That night I was not woken by anything.
