Chapter 3

When the plane door opened, Connor ushered me down the escalator steps to the waiting BMW that was parked not far from us. I opened the passenger side door and climbed in, waiting for Connor as he talked briefly to the pilot. I still couldn’t believe I was here in California, that I had garnered up the courage to enter that plane back in Palm Coast and fly across the country on a whim, yet here I am.

I pulled out my cell and called Aiden. As much as I didn’t want him or Abigail involved, I knew I couldn’t not call and not show up for school as well. All I needed was for them to file a missing persons report because I’m out gallivanting across the country and didn’t take the time to let people know I’m okay.

“Yo, what up?” Aiden’s voice was a relief and I was glad that he picked up and it didn’t go to voicemail.

“Hey bro, its me.”

“How’s the date going Madison? You having fun or do I need to kick this dude’s ass?” I love my brother.

I was looking at plane as the flight crew was bringing out a very large trunk from the cargo hold of the plane. I wonder if that’s where they stuffed that dead stewardess at?

“It’s going…different than what I expected.” I said.

“You need me or Abigail to come scoop you up?” Aiden asked.

“No…” Connor glanced over at me, smiled and gave a brief wave. “I think I'm good.” I said. “In fact, I might not make it in tonight.”

“Slut!” Abigail screamed.

I pulled the phone away from my ear and stared at it for a moment. “Am I on speaker?”

“Possibly.” Aiden sounded like he just got caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

“Okaay.” Connor was heading towards the car now. “Just don’t wait up for me.”

“You’re such a ho!” Joked Abigail.

“I love you to bitch. Gotta go, hit you up manana.”

I hung up just as Connor climbed inside. Due to the three hour time difference, the sun was just setting in California.

“So, I thought all Vampires burn up in daylight?”

“Most.” Connor explained. “But not all.”

“So what’s the difference?” I pressed. “What determines if you can walk in the sun or not?”

“Nobody knows really.” He explained. “It’s just one of those things. The transformation into a Vampire, it’s like pretrial medicine, it might affect Subject A one way and have a totally different effect on Subject B. It’s all random, but as a general rule, you are whatever the person who made you is.”

“So, the person that made you, turned you into a Vampire, he could walk in the sun too then?”

Connor pulled out a pack of cigarettes. “Nope.”

“But you just said…”

“I know what I said.” Connor was pulling onto the freeway now, working his way towards the fast lane. “There are always exceptions to the rule.”

“And you’re the exception?”

“Me? The exception? Nooo.” He put a cigarette in his mouth and the end of it caught ablaze by itself, a brief spark of fire as he inhaled.
