Nightwatch Ch. 02: Suburban Bliss

... school. "Good choice!"

We sang the lyrics out. He'd memorized the song after playing it over and over again for the past month. He did an excellent air guitar on it, too.

We pulled up a couple of minutes before the bell rang, then he ran in. "Bye Mor! Love you!"

"Love you too, Lu. Have a great day!" I held the passenger window open though it burned my skin like a rolling boil. I waved as he turned to wave too, a huge grin on his face.

When he was out of sight, I rolled the window up. I grimaced as the boils on my skin healed.

I saw a ragged man when I pulled away from the drop-off section. His hair was matted, and his clothes looked outdated.

He was cleaning grime out from under his fingernails. He didn't look like he belonged in our cheery suburban neighborhood. I pulled up next to him to look at him closer.

He noticed me, then leaned back onto the stone fence behind him, smiling vilely. He wiggled his fingers, acknowledging me.

I frowned as I peeled off towards home. It made a shudder run down my spine, knowing he was there for us.

It took a lot to make an old vampire nervous, but I could feel evil even in the morning light. My primordial hackles raised as I waited for an attack.

I kept my eyes on him as I rounded the corner. He looked my way too.

When I got back to the house, I found Suzie polishing the candelabras in the west hallway.

I picked up a rag to join her as she gave me a sweet kiss hello.

"Lu get there all ...

... right?"

"Yes. He's happy. Listen, I saw something after I dropped him off."

She looked in my eyes. "What do you mean? Likesomething something?"

I nodded.

"Ohh... I don't like it when you say that. The last time you used that tone, we got run out of town for being witches."

I chuckled.

"Don't laugh." She glowered.

"Sorry. In retrospect, itis kind of funny."

"You have a twisted sense of humor. There was so much hate. People we knew, all of a sudden turned on us. And if something like that happens again now that we have Lu... I don't know, Mor."

I held her in my arms as she broke down.

"I'm sorry darling. You're right. Maybe I'm just being anxious."

"Tell me what you saw."

We sat down, then I told her about the man.

She thought for a while. "He couldn't have been another vampire... so who was he?"

"I don't know. Like I said, maybe I'm overreacting."

"Hm."

"Maybe. But just let's keep our eyes peeled?"

"Okay." She held my hand. "I think you should call your father."

"How'she going to help?" I frowned.

"Maybe he's heard rumors going around. Or at least he's ready to come if we need him."

"I sure as hellhope we don't!"

"Mor, just give him a call. Either way, he'll be happy to hear your voice."

"Fine. He's gonna talk my ear off about his latest harem of nubile women, though. Ew."

She chuckled as she took my hand to kiss my knuckles. "I'm sure he's terribly disappointed in you for being monogamous."

"Incredibly." I laughed with ...
