I woke up feeling dizzy and weary, but yet energized at the same time. My eyes slowly opened, I was unsure of what was to come. My newly developed vampire eyes were magnificent!I looked around the room, Bright and full of life. The old brown couch was a vibrant red and the gray walls sparkled. All the colors Blending together to form a paradise. I knew from what james had told me that my world would not look like this forever, I had been thinking about where i would go, maybe the museum of Modern Art or the Luve, but without know what this was going to be like I couldn't make a well-informed decision. Now seeing how Decembers once muted living room-- which at one point to me wasn't a living room at all-- was now room fit for a celebrity,I knew exactly where I wanted to go. A place that I had only gone as a child, a place that to me was a paradise.

Pushing the reeds out of my way I stumble into a familiar place. The forest bed was overgrown but i could still see where me and Peach had once played dolls in the grass. Once older,the place where I first felt what it was like to be held,my first kiss. So many different memories tied to different emotions. And now a whole new emotion, Loss.

Me and Peach found this place when we were 6. We had wondered away from my childhood house in look for fairies in the woods. We had just watched Tumbellina and our childish Imaginations not overgrown yet with the worries of adults, flourished with the thought of fairies and pixies,make believe. We skipped through the garden and searched the grass,unaware of time or any other living beings. When our impatient minds got sick of the garden , we ventured into the unknown, the forest. I remember the look on our faces as we looked upon creek bed. We had never seen such beauty, such magnificence. It was noon about now and the sun hit the golden leaves casting a glorious light into the reeds. The water gleamed and sparkled, it flowed over the river rock creating wondrous shapes and colors under the glassy surface. And when the wind blew, it blew a song of silvery chimes. We walked and cleared a small area for us to sit in, and then ran back to the house to gather “supplies” and to tell our mothers of the magical place we had found. We went back there every chance we got, only the most special people could come with us to our enchanted land. We soon out grew the small area we had made that first day and enlarged it a little more every time, one day we found old stumps and carried them to the embankment by the creek. After a rain storm we would slosh our way to our hideout and clear it of twigs and unwanted debris keeping only leaves, for to make our floor a little prettier. We did this for some years, watching the neighbors move and new families come. And every season we would come a little less it was always “o but I have homework and i want to go see that new movie” until finally it was our turn to move. There was a new tract of houses going up on the north side of town and with my dads business growing we could afford to get a upgrade. My mom had finally grown out of our old cottage by the creek and wanted something more commercial. So we sold our house and moved away. Not long after our move,Peaches family sold they're house to a company which intended to put a brand new apartment building. When I heard the news i feared for our special secret I thought “they will build right over it”. They never did they decided to build across the street so thankfully our magical hideaway stayed untouched. I had always planned to go back here with peach, but as the years passed and seasons changed , buildings changed, we only got busier. I had forgotten completely about this place until the day i had found out what i was to become. I thought very deeply that day about my life and my memories ,good and bad. Now with my newly born vampire eyes the embankment looked just the same as the day we found it all those years ago. The only difference was in the sounds, the once beautiful chorus of chimes was now overtook by the sound of speeding cars and people yelling. I search the ground for a long forgotten stump, my eyes gently glide over the magnificent leaves the colors, making it hard to focus on what I want. I finally locate the chunk of wood I missed so much. I pull the damp tree trunk to the edge of the creek. The sunlight illuminating every reed, every smooth stone that covered the endless twists and turns of the little stream. Every now and then a giant stone jumping from the unbreakable waterway, throwing the stream into the air , creating a ribbon of light and sound . I don't remember how long i sat there just thinking. How many times had I dreamed of this place?How many times had it overtook me without my knowledge?I think i will like being a vampire. The benefits aren't bad at all! The transporting thing,never having to forget anything again,and of course feeling like I am in a daydream constantly.
