August 10th
Today was a mix of feelings. Ruby was getting ready to leave. Ready to start her new life. Chris has grew very sick and couldn't get out of bed because of it. I knew that our times on this earth was getting cut short. I knew our daughter will do well. Chris and I took the time to get things ready for her. I sat down on the living room chair and waited for Ruby. Ruby got ready for her new job and new place to live. I gave her keys to her car and smiled deeply at her.
I asked her if she was all ready to go. She nodded her head and told me yes. I was happy for her. I told her that her father wanted to see her before she go. She headed inside and hug Chris. Chris smiled weakly and told her how proud of her.
I followed her out of the door. She was taking all our money but she didn't knew that. We gave her everything. We wanted her to have the best. I knew it was time for me to go. I headed on my computer to write her messages. Since already out of the door and starting her new life. I hope things will be just the way she wanted. Once I shut the computer, it was time for me to face death and be with my love one.
Chris and I snuggled close in bed. I could hear his heart beat slowly fading away, I knew it was time. With our last finally breath, we whisper, I love you and then we were gone.

July 5th
Today has been a long but fun filled day. Yesterday was the forth of July. We had a wonderful time. Ruby invited some of her friends. The party went really well. We ate hot dogs and watch looking at the fireworks. Some of her friends asked Chris and I how we were vampire but we did our best to figure out to tell them. Some how Ruby step in and told them that they were attacked by some snakes that were really sick. Then they became vampires. They were surprise and didn't asked after a while. The party was over and they said "goodbye." Then they left. It was a little weird but I'm sure they had a good time.
Ruby asked if we were OK but told her that we were fine. At first we thought that she didn't believe us but then she didn't say anything after that. We went to bed soon after that.
Ruby been working hard at the bookstore and told us that she can't wait to be actress. She was getting closer and closer to getting her dream job. We were really excited for you. Soon her birthday was going to be coming soon. She is a really good driver now and work hard at school. We are very bless to have her.
~~
Rick's POV
Life was getting harder and harder to live. Ever since the day my love and my son left. I felt alone. Lost for a long time. The garden was getting bigger and bigger. The garden was the only thing I lived for. The Midnight family has loved and cared for me, for a long time. I didn't want to leave them ever. Even if I fall in love with someone didn't mean anything anymore. I really wanted to do my best and do the great job for them. My age however was getting up there. I decided to write a letter to my son. Sure he won't know too much about me. Only met him once when he was a baby. Still I thought writing him a letter would help. Maybe he will love gardening just like me. Either way I wasn't sure but I did it anyways. 
After I finished the letter, I headed to bed. I felt pretty tired and my bones started to ache a lot more now. I moan to myself as I got on the bed. Looks like I wasn't getting out of this bed. I felt a little weird. Like my heart was beating slow for a moment. Yet still holding on to life. I got over my cold a few months ago but now it seem I was dealing with another problem. 
Maybe I will see the doctors tomorrow. Right now all I wanted to do was sleep. Sleep and see what tomorrow will bring. 
~~
July 15th
A few weeks have past when we got word that Rick was very sick. We asked the doctor what was the problem with him. They were not sure. We found out that Rick went to see the doctors at July 6th but had to stay for some testing. We were not really worried about the garden too much. For we had friends and other gardening people helping out. We were really worried about Rick. We were not sure what was going. We were nervous that he would leave us. We knew he was getting older. Just like we were getting older as well. Ruby's birthday was put on hold for a little while until we found out what was wrong with Rick. A few hours later, we found out that he had some gardener sickness. Which we were not sure what that was but it seem like it wasn't good.
Rick slept in his bed for sometime. We decided to do Ruby's birthday as she was getting older now. We got the cake and wished her a happy birthday. She blew out her candles and wished for whatever wish to come true. She age up and was a pretty as always.
Before we could even ate our slide of cake, we notice that there was some weird noises coming from Rick's house. We rushed over there as soon as we could to find out that Grim Reaper was there. He stood there, his ghostly dark image staring back at us. It sent dark chills down our backs but watch in sadness. Rick pasted away that night. We were all sad. We didn't know what to say but stand there crying like crazy fools. We cared for Rick. Rick helped us out with our gardens but also there to help us out when we needed extra help.
We all tried our best go to sleep that night. It was hard but we did our best. We missed Rick so much. RIP Rick, We will miss you.
~~
July 17th
It was pretty sad day for all of us. It was two days after Rick past away. We didn't know what to say but give him a wonderful celebrating party for him. We knew that he wanted that wanted that way. We made our speech letting everyone know how much we cared about him. We talked for a while but we stood there crying. We enjoyed some drinks and had some good food before going to bed. We were getting pretty tired. This day was long for all of us. We didn't want to do much after that. All I know is that our lives will change forever.
~~
Well guys! I hope you like this chapter. I'm really sorry that I was late working on the last two entries. Please enjoy!

Journal Entry 12

Author’s Note: Again I’m sorry I haven’t been writing. I took a long break but now I’m back. This time I will try and get this Journal Entries going and hoping finished them as well. Not really much left expect for a few little things here and there. Thanks for understand and Please Enjoy!

Dear Journal,       June 6
Hello my old friend. So much as been going on that a part of me not sure what to believe. I guess I getting ahead of myself. I should tell you from the beginning. I took Ruby to school today. Normally I would have the bus take her but I needed to do a few things. I figured I would take her to school. I told Ruby “goodbye” and headed to see my friend. She was the lady who lost her husband in a boat trip. It was really hard on her. We had time to see her and tell her how deeply sorry we were. That wasn’t the interesting part of it. I finished doing some shopping and other random things needed to be done. I was minding my own business when a young lady came up to me and asked me if I was Mrs. Midnight. I looked at her and told her yes. I asked her why she asked but she softly grew silent for a while. I was a little worried but slowly she told me what happen. I was in shocked on what she told me that I could barely stand.
I asked her in the house and we went into the living room. I then asked her to tell me what she just said. She said, “Rick and I had a child together. A little boy named Richard. I wanted to let you know that because soon I will be moving away. I don’t know if he said anything but I figured I could say “goodbye” to him. Since I won’t be coming back. I have my reasons to leave. I just wanted to ask if it was ok to do that.”
I looked at her for a moment and didn’t know what to believe. I then asked her if it was true. She nodded her head. I could see there was a lot of pain. I then asked a few more questions. Like why were you leaving and what about the boy. She answered all the questions the best she could. I could tell she was tired and looked like she cried for a long time. After a few hours talking thing over, I let her see Rick for the last time. My undead heart was deeply sad. I don’t know how Rick will be taking this.
~~
Rick’s POV
I was outside the garden, like I always do. Ruby was in school, Chris at work and Scarlet had to do a few things. I took my time working in the garden. I love the feeling of touch plants. I was sick with a cold and for a while I couldn’t do anything. Some of the plants were not looking good and I had to bring them back to life. Then I heard Scarlet call for me. I didn’t know what was up but I came to see what she needed. Most of the time she didn’t bother me unless it was lunch or dinner time.
I asked Scarlet what did she want. She then told me that there was a lady who wanted to see me. I didn’t know what to say. I knew a few ladies in town. Mostly they came to me to ask about gardening tips. I gladly came to help them out if needed. They were some that were old and needed a little help. I figured that was what she wanted me to do. Help one of her friends or some neighbor in our area. I then told her that I would go. She was a little nervous and acted a little weird when I was leaving.
I was about to say something when I saw her. The girl that I once cared and loved. I didn't know she was back or even around. I was shocked and had so many emotions going on. All I could do was stare at her and I felt really weird about it. I didn't know what to do or what to say. She looked at me with sad eyes. I wanted to say I was sorry for all the things I have done but I couldn’t. She knew that. That it wasn’t my fault that happen. Close my eyes for a moment and sighed. Hoping, Praying that she would be gone when I open them. I knew it won’t happen but a part of me wished that.
The she said in sad but sweetest voice ever, “Rick, I’m sorry for putting you through this. I didn’t know this would happen. I truly care for you but I know you belong here. I don’t know what to do about it. What done is done. I just came here to tell you that I am moving far away. I won’t be back. I’m going to make a new life for myself and our son. I wish you could be here with us but I know you are busy. I just wanted you to know that. I’m truly am sorry.”
She looked like she was about to cry but kept it from happening. I felt sad and confused. Why, why is she telling me this now. I thought we broke up or friendship but I didn't know she would come back. A part of me just wanted to let her go but the other part of me wanted her to stay. I just wasn’t sure what to do. All I could say was, I wish you well in life and hope that our son will do well. Then I watch her go and we could hardly say “goodbye.” Just nodded our heads and she was gone. Tears flowed deeply now. That for a moment I don’t remember what was going on. All I knew was, it was going to be a long day.
~~
I saw Rick coming back after a long chat with his past love. Chris came home before Ruby. Ruby was visiting a friend and was doing a homework date as they called it. I wasn’t too worried about her. I was mainly worried about Rick. Rick told Chris and I the whole story. The story of how he met a nice girl. They fall in love and ended up having a child together. He was so worried about loosing his job that he had no choice but to let her go. He told us that she should be with someone who loves her. Who can stand by her side and never leave her. We then told him that he didn’t have to do that. That she was more then welcomed to live with us but sadly it was too late for that now. We were all quiet.
Chris and Rick made themselves come coffee. They tired talking about other things but it seem like it wasn’t helping much. Rick told us that he was going to bed early and headed to his little house. Ruby came home and told us about her day. We told her more or less about our day. Chris then read Ruby a bedtime story and then came in to see me. We talked for a while. How we felt bad about Rick and how soon our little girl was going to be a teenager. I was nervous but Chris told me that everything will be fine. I don’t know but sometimes he seem to know what he was saying. After that we said our “goodnights” and went to bed. Hopeful tomorrow will be a better day.
~~
June 15th
It was Ruby’s birthday. How times flies when your having fun. Speaking of fun, we were trying to find something really exciting to get for Ruby’s birthday. We looked around for a while. Didn’t know what we would get her. Everyone knows they teens wanted cars and what not. We looked for a nice one but not one to break the bank. Specially since we knew when she got older she would be moving out. We also had a great idea on where that would be. That you have to wait on. Meanwhile, Chris and Rick were getting the surprise ready. Ruby was in school and we would do her party after that. She wanted it family only. Not that she didn’t want her friends around but she just wanted it here. We didn’t mind that. Most of her good friends were going to move away. We were really sad about that but knew she would make more.
We got everything ready for her before she came in the door. We wished her a happy birthday and she blew them out. She was a pretty young lady. I worried that she would get a lot of guys after her but for now enjoyed her celebrating at home. Skip was happy and aged up as well. He was a very handsome young dog. We all ate cake and watch a movie. Chris and I talked her about driving. We would help her on it when she wanted us to help her. She was excited and thanked us for the care. She loved the other gifts as well. She practice some acting skills. She wanted to be in the drama club. We told her it would be a wonderful idea. We even asked her to try getting a job to save some money for things she wanted. She worked at the bookstore for a while. It was a lot of hard work but she made it through. We are really proud of her. We said “goodnight” to her and headed to bed. I can’t believe how soon our little girl will be a young adult and live her life the way she wants it.
~~
Well guys, I hope you enjoy this chapter. There might be two more after this. I’m not sure yet. Just because I don’t know what else to talk about since we getting pretty close to when she moved out and what not. Anyways thanks again for understand and enjoy!

Journal Entry 11

Author’s Note: Sorry it has been a long time since I wrote the entries on here. I’m sorry. Been wrap up on many different things and working on many different stories. I am going to try and keep this going. Again I’m sorry. Please enjoy!
~~
Dear Journal,        April 13th
It has been a long time since I remember to come writing on here. I will tell you what had happen since we last talked. Chris asked me three nights ago if I would turn him. My heart was pounding but I gave him my forever death bite. He seem a little in pain and slept for a while. He kept going to work. I was busy taking care of Ruby. I was telling everything she needed to know. She was getting better with talking and even walking now. I was really happy and it seem like she learn how to use the potty chair. Which was good since it was taking a lot of time and energy out of me.
Chris came home and I was still in the nursery with Ruby. Ruby was very needy today. I am not sure why but at least she wasn’t bothered by my new change. A little while after finally getting her to bed, I heard the forever haunting scream of death. At least it sounded like that but I knew it wasn’t. It was just the should of pain coming from my husband being turned. He slowly walked in and seem the change suit him better then me. However he pulled me closer and kiss me deeply. Even with your undead hearts, we still had the passion like we were still humans. Thinking about it I don’t know what to think about my once human self. I guess being a vampire has changed me.
A while back I read in a newspaper that vampires weren’t real. That it was some kind of joke played by humans. Saying that you go crazy one night and turn into a horrible monster that longs for blood. Even I thought about it. How would a vampire be real? I mean I know I am a vampire now but what really is a vampire? A sick bat bites you or something weird like that. I mean that how werewolves went about. They got bitten by a raging wolf dog. Then turn into a huge scary werewolves beasts. They weren’t real but even that could change in a wink of an eye.
Chris and I never really tired talking about it. Just the word vampire send my back on edge. I never really like the feeling. He was tired and went to sleep for the evening. I tried talking to Rick but he seem to be upset about something. I talked to him about how his friend was but he told me that she was doing fine but that they were no longer friends. It was a bit odd that she break up a friendship when she had a hurt leg or whatever it was going on. Chris and I did our best to help him but never really asked what was going on. We didn’t even know he had a relationship with anyone since he stay home most of the time.
I felt alone and felt this strange feeling to go outside. I stared at the stars and Moon. Now they are the only thing I enjoy in life. I can’t go out in the sun or I will burn or worse die. Still the feeling I get can’t change how I am. I do enjoy the moon lit sky and seeing the stars dance around. The plants look so different yet so pretty at night. I saw Chris and Rick finished the fence. They put it up to keep us from going down the path that change my life forever. Even the doctors were still unsure how a vampire was there. Even doctors had doubts about vampires but they had no choice they were real. I was a living proof of that. Make that a dying truth. Since vampires has no hearts really and have not many emotions. Still I was there for my family and my daughter. She is the one I will always love and protect. 
I was outside for a while until finally I decided it was time to go to bed. I was started to get really tired and even climbing up the stairs were hard. Finally after what seem like forever I got into bed and fell asleep.
~~~
April 15th
Today was Ruby’s birthday and life went on. We waited until Chris came back from work. Since he was busy trying to get more money and stay busy. Many people had asked what happen. Since he was now a vampire but he told them that he wanted to be with me and so he made a choice to be turn. After that no one seem to bother him about it. He had a bit of a problem with being too mad about things. Lately he and I would fight about the smallest things or even the big things.
When Chris came home we celebrated Ruby’s birthday and she turn out to be a lovely young lady. She really enjoyed play tea party with her dolls and listened to some music. We all had a good time. I felt kind of bad since Rick wasn’t feeling well but he told us he would make it up to her later. She understood and didn’t seem to mind much. We all watch a nice movie before Chris read Ruby a nice bedtime book.
He came in the room and talked to me asking me if I would try to have another baby. I told him a few times before that I wasn’t sure I could have another. Even the doctors didn’t know. He was getting upset about it but even that seem to stop him. He knew I had a problem and I was lucky to have Ruby. We didn’t talk about it after that. Since he knew deep down if I had another that either the baby or I would not make it. He didn’t want to lose me and I honestly didn’t want to lose him.
We were pretty quiet that night filled with many different thoughts. I know Ruby would wonder about what happen to us or why we look the way we do. I just not sure I am ready to tell her. I don’t want her to know what going on. She won’t really understand and so this would be my own little secret. A secret that Rick, Chris and I know. Which will stay that way for a long time. I just hope that Ruby would understand.
~~~
April 30th
It was the last day of April and Ruby was doing really well in school. She only asked once about what happen but we told her that we were bitten by snakes. We didn’t want her to go after them or anything. We had to lie to her since we didn’t want to tell her the truth yet. She was still young and I didn’t want her to feel like she didn’t need us anymore. She worked hard doing homework and I went back to school. She asked us if we would ever have another brother or sister but told her that mommy couldn’t have anymore children. That she was special to Mommy and Daddy.
Ruby was a little sad but understood where we were coming fun. She did have some friends but kept to herself mostly. Seem like she enjoyed acting and watching movies. We didn’t really stop her from doing that. She loved being a kid. I watch her having a good time in the garden. Learning about the different plants and what they each did. It was just wonderful to watch her. She really enjoy it.
Soon it would be her birthday and I wasn’t sure how things would go since she would be a teenager. I heard things about that ages. That they are hard to handle and that blow up or yell at their parents. I hope Ruby will not be that bad but you never know with that age. We also bought a dog named Skip. Skip was named a friend of ours. He loved to be sailing out and love the water. His dog,  Rose Petal had puppies and he wanted to give us one. Saying that he would be gone and that Rose Petal would be taking care of from his wife and children. He was going to travel the world on his sail boat. We gladly take this cute little puppy.
Skip was a sweet little puppy. We kept him as a secret for a day since we wanted to get his room ready. He stay over at Rick’s little house to be taking care of. While we got his room ready and waited for Ruby to come home. When Ruby came home, we told her that we had an early birthday gift. She was a little surprise but also very excited. Rick came in holding Skip in his arms. She jump up and down. Then took Skip from Rick’s arm and thanked us like crazy. She told us she would take good care of him. We knew she would.
Later on that evening we found out that our dear friend who gave us the puppy passed away while sailing on his boat. I guess some really bad storm came in and it was too strong for his sail boat. We were really sad. I called his wife and she told us everything she knew. I told her how sorry I was and that she understood. She also told me that we would have to get together in few days from now. Since she wanted to take a few minutes to let it sink it. I told her that I understood and we could do whatever we can.
It was a sad night for all of us but somehow little Skip made things better. He was always there licking us or letting us hold him to ease our pain. He is a good boy and I know Ruby was happy to have him in her life. I know I am too.
~~
Well guys! I hope you enjoy this chapter. I been a while and I am deeply sorry. I will keep going as much as I can. I just busy working on my other stories but I do my best to work on this. Thanks for understanding. Please Enjoy!

Journal Entry 10

Author’s Note: This will continue on from what was going with Ruby’s Mom. Also before Ruby would have her birthday as well.

~~ 

Dear Journal,             April 6th

I was bite shocked after learning I was a vampire. I mean how can anyone deal with being a vampire. Sure I heard a little about them but never in my lifetime would I think I would be one. Chris and Rick were still in shock. That when I heard Rick’s phone go off and he step out to answer it. He seem a bit worried as well. He went over to Chris after the phone called to say his friend was in the hospital. He was deeply sorry he couldn’t stay. Chris understood and he left to see his friend. Chris was still watching as he left. Then turn looking at me with worry. The doctor and him went out to talk for a bit. I was still lost in what was going on.

We heard Ruby crying and I wanted to go see her but Chris was already there. I felt like I wasn’t a part of anything. I worried Ruby wouldn’t love me or even know me. Since I only held her once after she was born. Life seem unfair. The doctor came over me and did a few test. Checking my neck and different things. I learn a lot that day. Mainly that I will no longer enjoy the sun anymore. It made me really sad. The doctor left and did his testing. He told us he would call us later. Chris just sat by me and we talked for a while. He asked me question if I remember anything at all. I just do him a few things but other then that I couldn’t remember.

He filled me in on what was going on. I was bit surprise on what was going on. Even with the part of me passing out for 2 days and what not. I was scared and worried. We got a called later that day from the doctor telling us that I am still healthy but that I might be feeling different for a while. Sadly there were no cures at the time. Which means I was stuck this way. I wish I never went into the woods. I felt tears falling down. I didn’t want to watch my love die of old age. I wanted to die with me. Like we planned for so many years. I guess life had other plans for us.

Meanwhile it was a while until Rick came back. We were bit surprise when he was acting kind of weird. He told us that his friend was fine. I felt he was lying to us but kept it to myself. I knew better to think the way I was thinking. He would tell us when the time was right. Still it did bother me that he was acting so weird. However he asked us if he could stay to help with his friend for a few days. He planned on leave soon after Ruby’s birthday. Which was tomorrow. Both Chris and I looked at each other but we agreed. Since it seem that it was important to Rick. We didn’t want to take that away from him. He was happy and then called his friend saying he would stay for a few days. That was that.

Chris took care of Ruby before we all got ready for bed. I was still weird about stuff. Specially when it came to smelling my love from a far. He smell so good. So sweet. I want to…I want to..bite him. However I did my best to control myself. The doctor gave me a fruit that was special for me to have. So I ate it hungry like. Chris just watch as I ate it. Knowing very well it will be a while before I got use to things. We talk a little longer and then fall into a deep sleep. I knew throughout the night that Chris was checking to make sure I was fine but I just held him close showing him that I was fine.

~~

Dear Journal,             April 7th

I woke up seeing Chris sweet face staring at me. He breath happily as he hasn’t done in a while. We all got up ready to celebrate Ruby’s birthday.  I finally was got time to hold her. She didn’t seem to mind me holding her. Which I was glad. I stare down deeply at her. I loved this cute little one. I snuggled her close and whisper how much I loved her. She cooed happily in my arms. Then Chris came in to see me really happy. He smiled back and kiss my neck softly. We both looking down at our little girl. Finally it was time to celebrate Ruby’s birthday. We came down to see Rick place the cake on the table. He was excited to see us. Little Ruby was cooing happily in my arm. She and I came close to the cake. Then we made a wish and she grew up very pretty little toddler.

After we blew out the candles, Rick, Chris and I had some cake. I gave Ruby her first bottle as a toddler and she was cute. Chris seem really happy to have her around. Then we put the leftover cake in the fridge. We said our “goodbyes” to Rick. He told us that he would be back soon. Just a day or two with his friend. We were fine with that. I spend my time with Ruby. Chris read the newspaper for a while. He threw it away. Soon he would be heading to work and I would stay a few days to take care of our little girl. Still everyone understood what was going on and told me to take much time as I wanted.

Then we put Ruby to bed since she was tired. Chris and I snuggled feeling really nice before we too went to bed. That night we slept really well for the first time. Ruby didn’t cry too much or got us up at like 3 in the morning anymore. Which was nice. I really happy about that. I just hope Rick is doing fine. We will find out in a few days time.

~~

Dear Journal,      April 10

Chris was back into working again. I really miss him when he was gone but somehow I knew we needed the money. Not that we were poor but just that we need to save up for Ruby in the future. Ruby and I have been getting closer this past few days. I was teaching her how to talk , walk and use the potty chair. It seem that the potty chair wasn’t as hard as with talking or walking but we finally got it done before her up coming birthday would be here. Chris came home after work and was surprise but happy to see Ruby walking. Then she would go Dada Dada. He just smiled and pick her up. He would give her a little tickle until she laugh really hard. I couldn’t help but laugh as well. It was just too cute seeing them together.

Rick had came back around the 8th or 9th. I wasn’t sure when he got back but was busy working in the garden and seeing how different Ruby looked. He spend sometime with her but then get sad and got to his house. I didn’t know what was going on but maybe it had to do with Ruby having red eyes or something. I’m not sure. I would try and asked but he would say something got in his eye. Yeah right. We all heard that one. I didn’t push him since I knew he would break down or stop talking to me. I didn’t really want that and I don’t think he want that either. Still it bugged me. I told this to Chris but he told me that I have to give it sometime. I guess I have to wait and see what going on with him.

We then watch a little sweet movie together and hang out. Just enjoy the evening before heading to bed. I found myself going outside sometimes just staring at the stars or looking at the plants at night. Chris put Ruby to bed and join me. Then we gaze up in the stars and told each other which stars were ours. I giggle at the thought that we would have a star named after us but who knew. It could happen. Then Chris pull me closer to him and whisper softly in my ear, “Turn me.”

I was bit surprise and asked if he was sure but he kiss me before I could say anything more. Then he told me, yes. That he wanted me happy and that he would do whatever he could to make us happy. I guess I couldn’t go back because I gave him a love bite that either one of us will ever forget.

~~

Well guys! I hope you like this chapter. I will keep working on more of them. I promise but I will be working the Crumplebottom family again. Please enjoy!

Journal Entry 9

Author’s Note: Rick and Chris will be talking for most of this chapter. Then Scarlet will talk.

~~

April 6th

Life so far was going by in a daze. Really I don’t know where to start. Truthfully we didn’t know what was going on with her. She had been sleep for most of the day. Hardly even speak or drinking anything. The only time I saw her up was when she had to rush to the bathroom to throw up. Not a pretty sight to see. Ruby on the other hand was doing fairly well. Her birthday was going to start soon but even that didn’t make the day feel any better. I wanted my best friend back. Not only that, I wanted my wife back. I kept calling the doctor to see if there was anything they could find. All I got was a voice called back saying they were busy. It was really annoying. Thankfully I had a friend still….Rick. I still glad he was still around. I didn’t know what to do without him. He truly is a great friend to have.

I was downstairs dealing with my emotions. Rick there trying to help me. Ruby started to cry so I went upstairs and took care of her. I knew something was very wrong. Is my wife going to die? That thought seem to hang in my head for a while longer. My thoughts thinking so badly that I couldn’t even know what to do. Rick told me I need to go out. He would not let me stay in the house. I decided I would try and see the doctor. At least see if they found anything.

I took the car and headed out. I rush as fast as I could to the hospital. I parked the car and headed inside. I asked the lady at the desk if I could see the doctor. I didn’t tell her I wasn’t sick. She gladly make me wait in the waiting room. When the doctor came out, he was bit surprise to see me but knowing I wouldn’t stop until he tell me something, he let me in his office. We spend a good few hours in his office. I asked many question of how she got the bite to the point if my wife would still be alive. He asked most of the questions but others he couldn’t tell me just yet. He told me that he was check out the blood to see if something happening with her system. He thought the bite could be from a snaked but even he wasn’t 100% sure if that was right. After feeling a little better, I went to the park. There I listen to the sounds of birds and thought about my wife. It was really getting hard. I started to cry thinking my life would be over if anything happen to her.

~~

Chris was really having a hard time about how Scarlet was doing. She would be in and out to the restroom. She won’t talk or even tell us what was going on. I didn’t blame her for not feeling well. She been sleeping for the past two days. I spend a lot of time trying to get Chris to feel better. I was at the point where he just need to get out of the house. I wasn’t trying to be mean about it but I knew in my heart that he need a break. He was going ragged thinking of her all the time. I sure would be doing the same if I was in his shoes. Still he left going out to do whatever he wanted to know. He told me that he would see the doctor to find some stuff out. Then he would be at the park for a little while. It was fine with me. I took care of little Ruby. Her birthday will be tomorrow but I spend all the time with her. I just hope Scarlet was well enough to be there for her.

I headed outside to the garden. I place Ruby softly on a blanket next to me that way I could keep watch of her. I watered the plants and took care of some weeding. I even got time to enjoy the fresh air while holding Ruby. Ruby is a sweet little girl. She seem to have a heart of pure gold. I really enjoy being close to her. She seem to know she was safe and fall softly to sleep in my arms. I place her back in the crib. Decided to see how Scarlet was doing. Boy was I in of a shock of my life. I stood there not knowing what to do. I gave Chris a call and he came over as fast as he could.

Chris stood there as well not sure what to do. We just watch as Scarlet a really loud scream. It was like someone punching you over and over again until you couldn’t take it anymore. We were scared and worried that she was about to die. Chris called the doctors and felt his sadness flow into me. That I too started to cry a little.

~~

I was very weak this past two days. I couldn’t talk or tell Chris I loved him. I couldn’t thanked Rick a million times over for all the stuff he done for us. I was sick. Really sick. Sicker then I ever thought I could get sick. I was always in the bathroom. Just throwing up and feeling like my life was out of me. I felt my body shake and curl up like a ball. I wanted to cry. I just wanted to die but in my heart I didn’t want too. I felt so weird. It felt like my body was dying but yet I was still alive. How could that happen? I honestly didn’t know. I couldn’t even hold Ruby without feel weak or tired. Something didn’t feel right. I just slept it off hoping things would get better soon but it didn’t.

I felt Chris and Rick coming in and out of my room. Then I got up real fast. No…not to throw up but I stood with a lot of pain flowing in my veins. Chris called the doctor. Rick stood there with tearful eyes. Chris then cried as well. I didn’t know what else to do because the pain was too much for me to handle. I just screamed in pain before I felt myself be lifted in the air. I am going to die and go to heaven? All I felt was rush faster then you could say Hello and Goodbye. Next thing I knew was my teeth felt really weird. Chris and Rick fast were like they say a ghost.

I somehow managed to get into the bathroom and look into the mirror. What I saw was not me? What I saw looked like a sick monster ready to pounce out and get me? No. This…This can’t be mean. It just…can’t be me but it was me. It was me looking in the mirror. Scared, confused and not well. My skin was pale. Paler then I thought would be and my eyes, well they were dark red eyes I ever saw that gave almost an evil glow. I wanted to scream but I force myself not too. All I could do was stare. All I knew was….was that I am now a Vampire.

Dear Journal,        April 4th

In the morning Chris and I took Ruby in the hospital like the doctor said. The doctor check Ruby to see how she was doing. I didn’t sleep very well but did my best to be there. Chris and I were waiting in the waiting room before the Doctor came in to see us. I was nervous but wasn’t sure what was going on. If Ruby would make it or if we lose another daughter. That thought really made me worried. I didn’t want to lose another. I at a point where I thought I never be a mother. Special since of what happen the last time. I look up and thought it was odd how the doctor was looking at us. At first I wasn’t sure what to think of it.

Then he told us that everything was fine. It looked like Ruby fought off whatever came in her and that everything will be fine. I was really thankful that nothing was going on with Ruby. They did a few more test and then we headed straight home. At home, Chris took Ruby to her crib and I went to bed to rest a little more. Chris talked to Rick what the doctors had said. They talked for a long time. I got up when the baby cried. I feed her, change her and gave her lots of love. She is a beautiful baby. I love holding her and feel so much love from her. She made me feel good. She made me work hard and I felt great being with her.

I headed outsides and felt the breeze hitting my skin. Besides it being a day since I gave birth to Ruby, I felt really good. I then told Rick and Chris that I was going into town. They were a bit surprise but telling them that I was feeling pretty fine. They didn’t say anything more. Rick was out in the garden taking care of the plants. Chris decided to read the newspaper while he listen to see if Ruby needed anything.  I slowly walked out on the path. The same path I been on many times before. It was nice out. Besides it feeling a little cold since it was evening time before I headed into town. I had a basket with me ready to get some more fruits and vegetables. My mind was thinking about many different things as I was on the path. Not really thinking of what will happen from this.

In town. I met a few of my friends and neighbors who were out. We talked a while and they asked me about the baby. I told them that everyone will be fine and soon they will meet her. They were excited and I was happy for them to meet Ruby soon. I headed into the grocery store to get some fruits and vegetables. I then went to the bookstore before I saw a few more people I knew. We talked for a while and noticing it was getting a little dark out, said “goodbye” to my friends. Then I headed back into the path. If I thought of it now, I would of told Chris or Rick to get me but I didn’t think of it.

I was walking quietly, listening to the wind blow gently on me and looking at some pretty flowers as I walked by. I stop for a moment to smell one when I felt someone was watching me. I started to walk a little fast but then I felt it getting closer and closer. I  then ran faster but it was right behind me. It hot breath down my neck and I froze. I couldn’t move at all.

Then the thing spoke, “Hello beautiful creature. Where are you off so fast for?”

I felt it hand slowly touch my hair and I was breathing really hard. I couldn’t speak. I tired but nothing was coming out. From this the thing or person, whatever it was came closer to me. I tried to run but it was too fast and help me close to it. His breath was on my neck and I felt scared. Am I getting jumped or robbed? Whatever the case I didn’t know what else to do. I was getting really nervous.

It said, “You smell nice. This won’t hurt a bit.”

Before I knew what it met by that, I felt a sharp pain in my neck. I then scream and somehow past out. As my eyes slowly closing, I saw that he was leaving on the ground. I couldn’t tell what it was but I fell into a deep dark sleep.

~~

I hard a really loud noise coming from the woods. I got up and slowly went into the path. I walked a little ways until I saw Scarlet laying there. I was daze with what just happen. I came rushing to her and bent down to see how she was doing. She was still breathing but saw she got a mark on her neck. It look like a snake bite but I couldn’t tell. I picked up the fruits and vegetables. I rush into the house and place them on the table. Chris looked up and notice that I had the basket it but didn’t see Scarlet. He got up and asked me what was going on. Where Scarlet was and everything. I told him that she was on the ground and that she was bitten but I’m not sure what bite her. I told him that I would stay and watch Ruby while he go get Scarlet in.

I headed upstairs and watch Ruby. At least nothing bad happen to you. I snuggle her and she felt really nice. She just look up at me and wondering what was going on. I softly whisper that your mommy will be ok. She be ok. She be ok. O I hope she will be ok. Tears was slowly flowing down my face and I found myself holding my knees after I put Ruby back in the crib. I don’t know what I will leave with the fact that she will be gone. She is and always will be my best friend.

~~

Rick came rushing into the house and held the basket in his hands. I got up from my newspaper and asked him what happen. He told me what was going on. My heart was giving out and I didn’t know what to do. I just ran outside after Rick told me that he would watch Ruby. Thank goodness nothing happen to Ruby but I still worried about Scarlet. I ran as fast as I could. There she was still laying there. I picked her up and then carefully bought her back in the house. I place her on the bed and wrap her up with blankets. I then called the doctor and asked him to come over as soon as he could. I was really worried about her but I didn’t know what to do.  I sat on the chair and waited to see when the doctor would show off. It seems like hours, days, weeks, months and years before the doctor finally showed up. I went to the door and answered it. He came in and went upstairs. I showed him where Scarlet was at.

Rick came out of Ruby’s room and stared at me. He asked me if she would be ok but I didn’t know. I just told him that I wasn’t sure. We both stood there and waited to see what the doctor would say. He checked on her and looked to see what was going on. He saw that there were some bite marks on her neck but she was still alive. I was bless for that but I didn’t know when she would wake up. He told us that there wasn’t much for him to do but that she needed to sleep it off. Once she get over the attack she should be fine but he would have to do some test. He agreed that he won’t take her to the hospital but that he would come everyday to see if she would be ok. I nodded and then he left. He was going to the lab to do some test to see what was going on. I was worried. I didn’t know what to do. Since I never saw Scarlet look like this. I was worried but there was nothing I could do. I just went into the guest room and started to cry myself to sleep. There weren’t really much I could do.

~~

 April 5th

I woke up not really feeling the greatest. The thoughts and feelings of last night really haunted me. I couldn’t really sleep. All I did was watch over Ruby and made sure she was fine. I kept wondering what was going on with Scarlet. Chris was at her side most of the night but slept in the guest room because he couldn’t take much of seeing her like that. She was still sleep. I worried she wouldn’t get anything to drink or eat but somehow I didn’t worry about that but the fact that she wasn’t up yet. I hope whatever going on she get better soon.

I decided to go out in the garden. It was a place I always like going too. Specially on times like this. I did my best not to think about her but it was hard. I didn’t like what was going on but there wasn’t much I could do. We saw the doctor once that day but he didn’t give us much of information of what was going on. All I felt was sadness in Chris’s eyes and I felt really bad. I pulled the weeds really hard to the point that I made my hands bleed.

I went insides the house and clean my hands. Chris and I talked for a while. We didn’t know at the time that Scarlet was slowly waking up but at the time we didn’t want to bother her. We headed upstairs and went into the room a little while later. When we saw her, we were surprise and over joyed that she was wake. She gave us a small smile but then she felt a little sick and had to rush to the bathroom. We took care of her and made sure she didn’t do too much. She then went back to sleep because she didn’t feel well. I check on Ruby and then went to bed.

~~

I was feeling really depressed. I mean really depressed. I didn’t want to eat or drink anything but I had too if I wanted to stay alive for my wife, my love, Scarlet. Even her name seem to make me feel sad. I felt weak and felt so tired. I didn’t go to work. I told them that some stuff was going on with my wife and they understood. I didn’t care if I worked or not. I mainly slept in the guest room because I couldn’t deal with what was going on with my wife. Ruby would cry and I would take care of her. I think she felt something was up but I couldn’t tell. She was still a baby and not knowing what was going on. She kept me going even if I didn’t want too.

I got something to drink. I still wouldn’t eat anything. Rick didn’t force me to do anything. He was just as upset as I was. We were all to school together. Laughing and enjoy each other company. He was there for me and help me to understand that she really liked me. While he did the same for her. I was glad to have my best friend but it was hard on both of us. I watch some TV or read the newspaper. I didn’t feel like doing anything else. I watch Rick a little working in the garden. He hurt his hand while gardening but took care of his wounds. We talked for a while. We didn’t know that Scarlet would be up.

Then we went up to see how she was doing. She been sleeping a lot lately. Not drinking or eating. I didn’t know if it was good thing or not. We saw the doctor once but he didn’t say much. He couldn’t tell what was going on. Still taking some test and telling us he would be back tomorrow. It felt like a waste to me. He not even doing his job, I thought to myself but we went into the room. When we saw that she was wake. I was surprise and didn’t know what to do. I just sat down next to her and held her close. Rick came by and gave her a hug and he was off. I was there with her. She didn’t feel good. She kept going to the bathroom. We took it slow when it came to food and water. She then went back to sleep. I was worried she won’t wake up but I knew she would be fine.

I laid down next to her and kept her close to me. I kiss your forehead before I went to sleep. Whispering softly in her ear, I love you Scarlet. She softly whisper back saying, I love you too Chris.
