Matthew

Leaning back in my chair, I sip at my tea, watching the light pinks of the early morning sunrise peek over the eastern mountains. It’s peaceful in this secluded section of our paradise together. Lilith would have loved this, even though she was made for city life. She was so eccentric and thrived with people. I enjoy the simple life, it also helps that I’m not around all of the hustle and bustle, otherwise I have to constantly block people out and hold my mental shields tight. In other words, I’ve been lazy, but what else do you expect, we’ve been on vacation. We have ten more years here before we have to go back to Purgatory to step into the roles we’ve been selected for.

Jessup makes his final lap and slows down to a walk as he approaches the back deck of my bungalow. “Couldn’t sleep again?” I inquire. He’s been more restless than normal lately.

“Yeah.”

He starts stretching as we both enjoy the comfortable silence. I wonder what’s really going on with him because he’s been on edge more than anything. I wonder if it’s the fact we’re on Earth, or if it’s the babies that are getting closer to their due dates. We had to take a ‘guys’ weekend a month ago just to get him out and run his aggression into the ground. Daniel and him sparred for hours until both of them dropped from exhaustion. I think we all needed it, to be honest. It’s been stressful lately, with all of us being on the fence about what to tell our girlfriends, if anything, about us being supernatural creatures. Jessup has been taking it harder than the rest of us, warring back and forth between keeping quiet or having full disclosure.

Carl is completely against it because he still believes Lilith didn’t leave us. Though, that didn’t stop him from trying to have a child like the rest of us. He wanted his child to grow up with the rest of ours, yet I bet he didn’t go about it the conventional way. I’m curious as to how he actually did it while still being faithful to Lilith. He wanted to be faithful no matter what.

Jessup was on the fence about the whole thing since Lily would more or less leave him. She was very religious oriented and didn’t believe in anything occult related. Lanna, Daniel’s girl, was all about the occult. Even though she’s well into her twenties, she still dresses like the typical goth schoolgirl trying to find herself. Of course, that causes issues in their relationship since Daniel is vying for a senate seat and has an image to keep. I can’t tell you how much resentment I catch rolling off of them. That’s a recipe for disaster. One of them has to give a little to make that work. I’m surprised it worked out for this long. I’m sure the only reason they are together is that she’s expecting a little Vamp herself. Though, she doesn’t know that part.
