19

"Here!" I hear.

Jamie's friends were all throwing Snowballs. I need to see them. I have to get this out of my head. I sit on top of the roof. They're in the backyard forest. Throwing snowballs. They all look so happy. I let out a breath. I needed this. I form a snowball on my head. I breathe on it. It glows and sparkles. I throw it. It hits Jamie. He starts laughing.

"Jack!" Jamie yells.

I fly down.

"Hi guys, room for one more?" I ask.

"Yeah!!!" Ron throws one at me.  

It hits me. I start running around. I create snowballs. 

"Hah!" Pippa yells. 

They are all happy. Even Cupcake. It took a little bit of persuasion for her to believe, but... I managed to persuade her. Everyone they look so happy. It's amazing. I throw another snowball. Jamie laughs and smiles at me.

"Well, look what's become of you. Disgraceful." A voice says.

I turn. Everyone turns.

"Who's that?" Ron asks pointing.

"Jack?" Jamie looks at me.

I walk forward.

"Who are you?" I ask.

"You mean you don't remember me? Ouch." He pulls off his hood. 

His face. So young. He's really really young. My eyes widen. 

"You... you worked with my father." I answer.

"My lord. I serve your father." He bares his two long fangs.

"You're a...." Jamie starts.

"A vampire? Yes." He says.

"Jack? What's going on?" Jamie asks.

"It's okay. Stay behind me." I say.

"It's time you and your father had a proper reunion. He wants to talk." He says.

"And if I refuse?" I ask.

He looks at Jamie.

"I'm sure you won't." He says.
