chapter 3

Ethan considered manipulating the card for a lower yearly number, but decided against it.

He laid down on the bed, and closed his eyes. He thought about what to do with his life, for it had been many years since he had been among people.

Looking at the card one last time he closed his eyes to rest.

Two weeks later Ethan and Grag went to the Mall.

While there Grag led Ethan to a clothing store, picking out a few outfits Ethan tried them on.

(What do you think?) He asked, stepping out of the changing room.

(Looks good.) Grag replied, handing him another outfit to try on.

He tried on the outfit and came out again noticing a small crowd staring at him.

Each time he came back out, he noticed more people would be there watching him model the clothes.

By the time he got done showing off- I mean trying on clothes the once spacious store was now packed with people.

Soon Grag paid for the clothes and dragged Ethan out of the store before the crowd could react.

In the car they pull off as Grag let's out a sigh.

(Really Ethan?) Grag said, looking at him incredulously.

Ethan just smiles and looks out the car window, it's been years since he felt this alive.

Leaning his head against the window, he whips out the phone Grag gave him, his first week of living with him.

After scrolling down some he saw an app he had never noticed before.

“VampFeeder?” He said tilting his head he looks at Grag as they come to a red light.

“Is this the app you use?”

“Hmm?” Grag hums looking over.

Ethan turns his phone around, pointing at the app.

Glancing at the phone, Grag nods and puts his eyes back on the road.

“Yeah, I get blood deliveries from there, it's actually how I met my wife.”

“WIFE!?!” Ethan yelled, shock evident on his face.

“Hahaha, yeah I didn't know it was that surprising.”

“Oh by the way here.” Grag said, handing him some business cards.

“What is this?” Ethan said, fumbling with the cards.

“Business cards, while you were busy modeling you actually got some offers, how ironic.”

*Rolls eyes* “Is that jealousy I hear?”

Grag elbows him. “Yeah right model boy.”

After three seconds of silence they both burst into laughter.

“Model boy? 😂😂😂”

They continue to laugh as Grag drives them home.

At the house Ethan starts to cook and drops a few drops of his blood in the dish.

The food:

“Grag! Come here for a second.”

“Did you need me?” Grag said emerging from the hallway.

“Yes, could you try this please?” he said, handing a plate to him.

“Umm you know vampires can't taste human food right?

“Yes, but I wanted to try something so tell me how it tastes.”

“Ethan I can't taste it.”

“You haven't even tried it yet.”

“There's no point in me trying something I can't taste.”

“Grag, do you take me for an idiot? I may have lost my memory but I am far from dumb.”

“Now. Try. It.”

“Okay, okay, fine I'll try it!”
