Everyone questions me if I'm just like them. If I'm not human. If I'm a vampire just like them. My parents are vampire pure breds which means that it's very unlikely for me to not inherit the genes. It's not common, but it's not rare either. Once, there was a human who's parents were both vampires. However, instead of becoming a vampire at the age of 13, they went through the changes the humans go throug...
My brother and I were very excited for this weekend. We were going to go camping. We've never been before but father has when he was our age. He told us about fishing, hunting, eating smores, and sleeping under the stars. Like I said, we were very excited.

My name s...
My mom was right. She knew people were evil. I never should've talked to that boy across the street. Never should've snuck out of the house at night to see him. I should've listened to my mom. Should've followed her silly rules. Now they don't seem silly anymore. I should've stayed in my room. Never should've gone outside. Mom never let me go outside. It's best that way, she had said. Now I'm stuck between this guy and t...
"I dare you to snatch the wig off of Mr. Harrison," Becky whispered in Rachel's ear. Rachel looked over at her best friend in confusion. "What did you say?" "I said, I dare you to snatch the wig off of Mr. Harrison." Becky glanced up at the teacher. Mr. Harrison was a pot-bellied, old man. He reeked of cologne. He wore bifocals which made his beady little ey...
