And All Things Will End

Kayla's POV

I sat on the couch in relief after Matt gave me permission to stay. He walked up the stairs shortly followed by Brian.

"Well I guess id better make something for dinner, now I'm cooking for four" Chrissie smiled.

She sprung off of he chaise and pranced to the kitchen her short crazy hair bobbing up and down with each step.

Id decided to flick through a few channels on tv to take my mind off of Ashlee and her loonies for awhile.

Id come across a documentary on great white sharks and how they can be gentle giants of the sea, well given that their not blood thirsty anyway, and my eyes were slowly starting to close.
Man I must have been tired, I knew it wasn't before 9pm but today's events were pushing my limits on the awake scale.

I just about fell asleep when I heard a short sharp knock on the door.
I waited for Chrissie or the guys to come answer but they musnt have heard it.
Hmm this might be a good chance for me to make a good impression, I got up off of the couch and slipped on my flats before heading over to the front door.

I opened it to see a young man with red make up on his eyes, how strange.
"Hello dear my name is Zachary I work at the coffee shop on campus with your roommate Chrissie, by any chance is she home?"

I thought about it for a minute, I knew Chris worked there but she didn't really mention anything about a punk look alike like this one working with her. Still.. He seemed friendly enough and I didn't want to get off on the wrong foot with Chrissies work mates.

"Uh yeah I could get her if you like, umm would you like to come in?"

Yeah my manners were always at the top of my nice list, the man paused for a minute then grinned wildly and took a step inside the door and bowed before me, he was dressed in a very nice suit, there was a purple patch in his hair that stood out from his inky black hair I could hear shuffling and crashing coming from the kitchen,

Just as he went to take another step Chrissie ran out of the kitchen eyes wide and yelling, she seemed so shocked
"Kayla no!" She yelled
"I revoke your invitation!!!" She screamed at the man

the man was frozen in place, his arms outstretched at my neck it shocked me to say the least, fangs hung down from his teeth that we're ready to attack I jumped backward to Chrissie as a gust of powerful wind blasted through me and pushed him back out the door.

"What the hell was that!" I shrieked

"that" Chrissie paused.. "Was my boss.."
"Your boss?!" I yelled "Your boss has fangs! Like needle sharp fangs! What the hell!?!"

As I finished pretty much blasting Chrissie for not telling me about this shit Matt and Brian jumped down the stairs. They both landed swiftly at the bottom of the stair case.

"I see you've met one of our local blood collection services" said Brian.

"If that's what you call it" Chrissie mumbled

"look there are always monsters, vampires, ghouls ect, but right now I want you to forget about that and put this vile down your top"

i looked at Brian with my mouth hanging open, "are you kidding me?"

"Nope, it's holy water, if you need it it can be used as a kind of stun grenade against vamps"
he said it like this didn't even matter, was I the only one who thought all of this was crazy??

I took the vile from him and rolled it back and forth in my hand. The clear liquid looked about as harmful as a feather.
Still I put the vile in the pocket inside my jacket and gave him a geeky thumbs up.
He rolled his eyes at me and turned to Matt.

"James will be here any minute, what are we going to do with her?"

"umm excuse me but what do you mean going to do with?" I asked, I'm not a her I am a me, I am Chrissie not some item that they can move about as they please.

"Look darl" Brian got down to my level
"something extremely serious and even more dangerous is heading here right now, and he's not a huge fan of people who break the rules... And you, you need to go hide in the kitchen with Chrissie while Matt and I deal with this." He commanded.

I cant say I was extremely happy with being ordered around but I didn't want another encounter like we had five minutes ago with Zachary. Chrissie grabbed me by the hand and led me to the kitchen and behind a bench.
Not two seconds after we knelt down we heard the front door swing open..
