Chapter 3- Is the awkward, or am I crazy?2
"Are you serious?! I can’t fucking believe that! You just met him. This isn't like you, Ona." Asia is freaking out on me, because I just told her about mine and Trent's little kiss-thing.3
"It just happened! Don’t look at me like that, Asia." She's giving me this very disapproving look, but in a slightly playful way. "I feel like I’ve known him forever or maybe that I was supposed to know him. We were meant to meet? I don’t know." I'm completely confused, yet satisfied as me and Asia walk to Tom's car. Asia starts to say something, when it's interrupted and overpowered by a familiar voice in my head4
'I cant stop thinking about you, you know...'5
I stop walking and look around. I don’t see him anywhere, but I know it's him. 'Trent?' I think. No response. Asia is getting quite frustrated with me...6
"EARTH TO ONA!!!!! HELLO?! What the fuck? I hate it when you space off like this- it’s kinda scary."7
"O, shit. Sorry, man. What were you saying?"8
"Yo! Ona! If you don’t hurry up, I'm leaving you here, and you're going to have to walk your ass home. I have work in 20 minutes and it takes 15 to get home, then to Dunkin' Donuts." Tom yells from the hood of his car. I tell Asia I'm sorry but I have to go, and that I'll call her tonight.9
"You better, girl."10

Now I'm sure you're wondering why I, as a vampire, am out in the sunlight, around HUMANS. Well, there's a lot to us vampires that people are very wrong about. First of all, sunlight doesn’t bother us. You just don’t notice us as vampires. To you, were just normal, everyday people... your neighbor, your teacher, your boss, your coworker, even your pharmacist who's handing you your crazy pills every month. 12
Also, we don’t like to feed on you humans anymore- especially since you guys have diseases and STDs, among other nasty things. Now we can’t get them, being another species and all, but it defiantly doesn’t taste good. We have resorted to feeding upon large animals...well or small animals if we just need a snack
. Honestly, humans aren't even that tempting anymore. Over the years, its been breed out of us. Those who are 'created' have a harder time, but its no where near as strong of a craving as 50 years ago. This actually makes living with you a lot easier.13One thing you guys ARE correct on, is we sleep in coffins...HA! Just kidding. I sleep in a water bed. But, no, really you guys are right on some things. Garlic does make us sick. It won’t kill us, but it will make us nauseous, weak, and sometimes -if given enough of it- put us into a coma for some period of time. Another thing is, a stab through the heart will kill us. Although it doesn’t beat like yours, it is crucial to keeping us alive. I'm not getting into our anatomy though. That pretty much is the only way you can kill us. Cut our head off, -if you can penetrate our tough skin- and we will just simply pick it up and place it back. We heal extremely quickly.14
So now that I have updated you mortals on our existence, I hope you will have a better understanding of the rest of my crazy story.15

Waiting by the phone, I look at the clock. '4:30' I sigh and decide that maybe i should go feed. It HAS been about 2 days. Just as I stand up and start to head for the door, the phone rings. I run as fast as I can (which is extremely fast by the way) to answer it. 17
"Hello?"18
'o man, what do i say?' I hear, but I know it wasn’t said out loud.19
"Hello, Trent. You really need to remember that I know what you’re thinking." I say while laughing lightly.20
"Damn it. What's cracking?" He says nervously.21
"Don't be so nervous. Just because I know how to kill you, doesn’t mean I will." I say jokingly. 'i hope he doesn’t take that wrong... Jesus I'm so dumb!' I think to myself.22
"You’re not dumb..." 'You’re amazing' "I'll try not to be so nervous... it's just... I don’t know. I'm not that good with girls."23
"I caught that..." I respond, pun intended. "So, did you want to hang out still? I mean, I understand if not..."24
"Well the thing is, my sister wants to feed tonight, but she's not sure where the good shit's at around here."25
"This works out very nicely actually. You caught me as I was heading out the door to go catch some supper anyways." 'I hope they like deer and bobcats...'26
"My sister loves bobcat. Deer is alright too. I prefer moose, but this isn’t Canada." I can’t get over the fact that I'm talking to another immortal. I'm quiet for a second.27
"So.... Do you want us to pick you up at your place?" He asked sweetly.28
"Oh. Sorry. I spaced out for a second there. But, um, yeah. That's fine." I tell him my address, and directions- seeing as he has no idea where he's going.29
About 20 minutes later, I hear knocking at the front door. Expecting it to be Trent, I swing open the door in a hurry only to find................
