I have learned to not name my books till im done if i do i never finish them its a curse i have
Draft 1:
A kiss was all it took…………to ruin my life. You see I was kissed by a vampire. His name was Todd Alucard, Dracula spelled backwards. I loved him even though I am only 16 yrs. old, it sounds corny and stupid.
Do you know what it means when you receive a kiss from a vampire? It’s a form of a bite. You see when Todd kissed me he sort of marked me as his. The kiss has made him my only focus and desire; I am a vampire now too. He did not mean to kiss me (or did he ?) he just did it. I think he was terrified, as soon as he kissed me he darted away I didn’t even get to see his reaction. It was summer time. I knew what a kiss on the lips meant. That is all I am telling you will just have to read on…………
I walked inside knowing that by tomorrow I would be a vampire. You see I am an only child of two parents and they would be quite upset that I was running away.
“Hey mom, I’m back. I’m going to go to my room,” I told her not giving her a chance to object. I darted up the stairs easily already feeling the strength sinking in. I scurried down the hall to my bedroom and closed the door. I locked it and my window, I closed the curtains.
With a quick smooth movement I glided towards my closet doors I opened them. I dug quickly and found an out backpack. I stuffed a couple outfits in the backpack. I don’t know why I did this but I stuck my cell phone in my back pocket along with its charger.
I walked over to the window and unlocked it. I looked around my room one last time. I quickly wrote a goodbye note.
Dear mom and dad,
Don’t ask why I left because I can’t tell you. It nearly almost kills me inside that I am doing this. It is very likely you will never see me again. If you call the police they will never find me, I can promise that. It would be nice if you kept paying my phone bill too! If I ever get lonely I may drop you a text message, I can also promise that is very unlikely.
I will always love you and please don’t ever forget me! I can promise you one more thing I will always and forever love you.
With a great burden and a heavy heart,
Your daughter Gina
I unlocked my door and opened it. I made sure the note was in plain sight. I took my small backpack and slung its straps over my shoulders. I climbed out of the window and was out of sight.
When I hit the ground I heard-
“Gina?” It was my mom. I darted up a nearby tree, my new strength and speed was coming. I watched my window. My mom ran to the window and stuck her head out the window. She called my name softly and she slowly became louder. Then she was screaming my name. My father suddenly appeared by her side and realized what had happened.
I couldn’t watch anymore if this. I ran undetected. Until I realized I didn’t know where to go. I suddenly became very tired. I guess I was starting to ‘transform’ into a vampire.
Todd told me about vampires once….
“Ummm so how do you become a vampire?” I had asked. He had looked away from me.
“Why do you want to know?” He had asked back.
“You are avoiding the subject,” I had accused.
“No I’m not!” He had said trying to get me to argue with him so that I would forget about it.
“If you don’t want to talk about then I have another subject!” I had complained. He groaned.
“What?” He had asked me.
“Why won’t you ever kiss me?” I whispered a little embarrassed. He froze. I shot him a look.
“It’s complicated,” He had answered.
“That’s what people say when they want don’t want to talk about it.” I sighed.
“Yeah,” He told me. Then I had a sudden thought. He didn’t want to talk about how to become a vampire. He didn’t want to talk about him never kissing me. The only time he had not wanted to talk about a subject was if it had been about vampires. I put to and to together.
The Conclusion…..
T=Todd
G=Gina
T won’t tell G about becoming a vampire + T won’t talk to Gina about anything vampire related + T won’t tell G why T won’t kiss G + G figuring out why T won’t tell G about the subjects = In order to become a vampire you must be bitten by one (which T would never ever do under any circumstances), OR you get kissed by one (which T has avoided at all costs)!
“I know why you won’t tell me about either!” I said excited. He didn’t move, he smirked probably thinking I hadn’t got it right.
“Oh and why is that?” He said arrogantly.
“Because they are both connected, in order to become a vampire you must either be bitten one. Or you must be kissed by one. That explains why you won’t ever kiss me on the lips. That’s why you never talk when I am within a foot of you. You are afraid of you either biting me or kissing me on the lips.” I said feeling brilliantly successful.
“This is why I usually don’t date people with brains!” He laughed.
So that’s how I knew.
Well anyways I knew that I had to find a place to hide that would be dark.
