Boys of my age were afraid of those imaginary monsters, they have seen in movies or read in books but I only shiver when I recall one name "Dylan Davis". He was a vampire. Although, Jake was a werewolf but I wasn't afraid of him. The reason was he was friendly unlike Dylan who was fierce. Katherine was reading magazine as usual. The day turned to afternoon. I spent my day by completing my home work.

"Can I go out" I said

"Go but not in woods" she replied.

"okay."

After the incident in woods I had to ask her. I promised her not to go in woods. Sun was bright. The sky was hot almost burning. I moved to the ground where my friends and I used to play football. No one was there except a lady with long light brown hair and blue eyes. She was covered in a white dazzling gown, walking straight towards her destination, dropping a chain, accidentally. Moonlight color of chain sparkled in my eyes. My hands grabbed it and I ran towards her.

"Is this yours?" I asked her. She was not listening,

"Excuse me... is this yours?" I repeated. Her neck turned right and her eyes focused me. She glimpsed at the chain and then my face for a few seconds.

"yes..." she hissed like Dylan. I gave the chain to her. She held my hand and then my wrist.

"Thank you... walk with me." she whispered. Before I could speak... her fingers covered my lips.

"I'm not here to harm you" she spoke.

I started to walk with her. She forced me to enter in woods with her. I saw illusions of Dylan but I ignored. Birds were chirping and cool breeze blowing. She dropped my wrist and stepped towards the tree. It was the oldest tree, I ever saw. She knelt to the roots of tree. Her hands brushed the barks of the tree and I saw a diamond in her hands.

"Take this with you... it will save from every bad luck" she said. I grabbed that in my hand. A storm of glitter twisted around her and after a spark she vanished. I threw the diamond, away. I don't believe that a diamond can protect me from everything. Isn't it stupid. " not in woods" her voiced echoed my ear. I turned back. The sun was near to set and I knew I had to go back home. My joggers rushed through the grass, displacing the wind, around. Thoughts of Jake were refreshed in my mind. Night with him was still a comforting memory. I went to my place, back.

"you know what time is it" Katherine spitted. Her eyes focused me.

"I know-" I said.

"Remember I told you about my colleague is going to stay with us for a few days" she reminded me.

"Yeah I do"

"He's gonna share room with you... you know that top floor's room is so messy" She explained.

"I know that" I answered.

"He will be coming... clean up your room" She ordered.

I moved towards my room. I sat on the carpet and started to clean the mess. I tried to assemble all the stuff. I was still busy, trying to arrange the stuff.

"Your little brother, Austin seems busy" Somebody hissed.

My eyelids lifted up. I remember those honey colored eyes, spooky lips, ultra-white cold skin and his hissing voice... I remember Dylan Davis. My brain recalled all those terrifying memories with him. I was solidified like a statue, it was difficult for me to move at that moment. He was still at the door of my room, Katherine was behind her. Dylan was continuously smiling at me. He seemed to be laughing on my helplessness like a hunter laughs at his prey. I never thought that Dylan would be her colleague besides she never told me about him. Long black haired lady and the guy moved away but my eyes were glued at the door.

Dylan had been a part of my nightmares since I ever met him. His thoughts used to

Disturb my sleep. Now, he was going to stay with me. He was going to share room with me. He wasn't just a vampire. He was the one who left me alone in the woods when he heard wolf's howls. He was the one who tried to suck my blood. He was the one who didn't care a child is alone in woods. The strange thing was he knew me, my name. He may knew everything about me with reference to Katherine.

I smashed my head on the pillow. Then, instead of getting worried I started science home work so I could get rid of those bad thoughts for a while. I spent time like Dylan Davis do not exist like he was just a fictional character. But it was easy to ignore him till he was not in my bed room.

I walked out of the room, reluctantly. Dylan and Katherine were eating, talking and laughing. I never saw Katherine that much delighted. According to me Katherine is busy, dull and dry. After having dinner, I switched my clothes. I was looking into room mirror. Like, I could see the future but no one knows. I was just looking my reflection in the mirror and scratching my head. Lighted eyes appeared in the mirror. Dylan was smiling at me. His devil smile was about to kill me. His facial expression was teasing me where as his gleaming eyes were torturing me at every I looked at his face. He landed on bed without hesitation. It was completely unbearable for me. I was standing near by bed and gazing out of the window. Even the stars in the sky were asking me that how will I spend a night with a vampire who tried to suck my blood.

"So you are night owl... you don't wanna sleep" He broke the dead silence in pieces. He stood up. His cold hands brushed my cheeks.

"who said you that." I said rudely.

"I can read your eyes."He spoke. I didn't answered. He smirked again. His teeth flashed. Finally, he won. I lost. Katherine ordered me to sleep. I laid down on the bed. I decided, staying awake for the whole night. Dew of moon was falling on his face. His Marble white skin was gleaming, his honey filled eyeballs were on me. A few minutes ago, he closed his eyes and I continue to breathe. I tried to ignore him. Everything was silent except my heartbeat. I took a look on Dylan. He was sleeping peacefully. I turned back and started gazing the out of the window. I could see hundred of Dylans standing on my hand, threatening me and I closed my eyes. It was becoming difficult to breathe, I was feeling snake around my neck. My eyelids lifted up and I saw Dylan's elbow was on my neck. He was looking straight into my eyeballs, his lips were stretched like he was taking his revenge. Revenge? But for what? Now, I was thinking about diamond that I threw away in the woods.
