Chapter 1. twisted

Christina was tired, it was late, the clock on the wall read 11:54pm. She stretched and shut down her computer. After getting changed her sister came out of her own room to use the restroom.
"Good night Chris, don't forget to pay the electric bill tomorrow or it'll be late." Jenny said in a matter-of-fact tone.
She rolled her eyes. "Yes mother dear.." Christina retorted with sarcasm.
"Well I have work tomorrow, so you'll have to do it." was her excuse.
The reply "You should have done it today, you had the past two days off.." burned in her mind, but she kept her mouth shut and headed to bed as the sound of Jenny's door could be heard just as Chris closed her own.

Snuggling into bed with her warm, soft blue blanket, Chris thought of her day, and what must be done tomorrow. 'I really wish she'd do somethings herself.' She thought to herself, looking over at the alarm clock, it read exactly midnight. 'I'm not her errand girl..' she huffed. "Then why not tell her yourself?" a voice in her dark room relied. "You really shouldn't let her walk over you like that, really I could feel the tension from your window."
Chris sat up in her bed, her blanket clutched in her fist, raising it up to her chin. "Who are you?! What do you want?! Jenny!" She yelled.
"Save your breath, she can't hear you." Finally she could make out the figure slightly, it was standing next to her open window right in front of her. The drapes moved softly as the cool night breeze russled them, moonlight shown in just enough to show that it was a man in his late twenties, medium dark hair.
"What have you done to her? How did you even ear what I was thinking?!Help! Somebody help me! Aaah!" She screamed loudly.
The figure quickly placed his hand over her mouth, muffling her cry's. "She's unharmed, in fact, if you'd like you can see for yourself.." he said coolly, his other hand how reaching for her own. "Now for reading your mind.. " from the tone alone, she could tell he was smirking, feeling his hand grip her arm her eyes grew with fear, starting to pull back,"it's easy when you're a vampire.." His fangs shined lightly as he grinned. Chris's mind filled with panic, kicking the male in the most vulnerable place for a guy. His hand released her lips but he held fast with his left hand. "Ugh, You little wretch!" He quickly recovered and held her arm as she struggled to get free, pulling at his fingers.
"Let me go!" She screamed, tear's of terror streamed down her cheeks. Then she noticed his arms and legs shaking violently.
'He must be starving.'
"You have no idea.." He said, he had lowered his head, his hair hiding his face. He suddenly jumped back, releasing Chris. "I can't do this to another person, it's.. not ... fair.. " He leaped out of the window, Chris laid there, in disbelief, panting. She got up, and looked out her window.
"What the.. hell was that?" The rain was coming down, no sign of the mysterious perpetrator. She slowly backed away and placed the back of her hand to her forehead, feeling a hint warm, she sat back down on her bed with a thump. She thought to herself 'I must have a fever, it was a hallucination.'
