Chapter 1 life befoure the awakening

My name is Evet Jones, I remember what it was like to be human, perhaps that is the worst part of all, but I am getting ahead of myself. Everyone knows that if a human is bitten by a vampire they will soon become a blood drinker themselves, but there is another way to become a vampire, it is equally painful and far from glamorous, of course I'm talking about those of us that are born vampires. One of the most painful things about the Awakening is that it begins as a vampire becomes (in my case) a woman, therefor I remembered being human, but the time I had to be one was small and fleeting like so much ash on the wind. I remember one summer morning, before it happened, I was lying under a tree with my friend, Prince, we were both about thirteen and all the world around me seemed to fade away as I gazed upon his golden face, his hair was sparkling in the sun like fresh copper and his chestnut eyes gazed upward "Evet" he said, I held on to his every word as if every word he spoke was a word of ancient wisdom "Yes, Prince" I replied "Catch me if you can" he said as he jumped up and ran as fast as he could without destination. I laughed and chased after him but before I could catch him the bell rang, lunch was over and school commenced and ended not long after, on my way home I noticed the sun, it was warm on my skin, but not too warm, it was just right, I waked for a little less than seven feet when I heard Prince call my name, he was carrying a small box "It's for you, he said" as he held out the box. My heart fluttered with excitement What is it? I thought as I grabbed the box and opened it, it was a locket "Just what I wanted!" I exclaimed as I threw my arms around Prince and reluctantly departed from him only to turn back around "So I guess I'll see you at school tomorrow?" I called out, Prince nodded and with that we both continued down our seprate paths.
