Eric sighed as he turned off the ignition. It had been a long night
and
he was finally home. After bandaging Terry's hand up, they rushed him
to the nearest emergency room where he ended up getting 13 stitches in
his hand. They had spent the better part of the evening there waiting
for him to be done and now it was 11 pm at night. He turned in his seat
and moved the jacket...grabbing the navy blue journal. He was
exhausted but he just had to know more about Mike. Rubbing his eyes, he
trudged up the steps to his flat....
Eric stretched...After a nice hot shower, he was ready to settle into
bed with the journal. He sat a glass of milk by the bedside table and
crawled under the covers. He opened the journal and finding where he
had last left off, he began to read again....

January 12, 1963....
It had been two weeks since that day in Professor MacDonalds class....
Since that day, Professor MacDonald had backed off on his attacks on
Mike and he and Rebecca had become close. They had spent almost all
their free time together and Mike was thrilled that he had finally
found someone who loved him. His last class for the day had finally
ended. It was Friday and tonight Mike was going to take Rebecca out to
the movies and dinner. Mike whistled to himself as he shaved his face.
His roommate, Basil, watched him from his bed.
"I never knew you were such a ladies man." He teased.
Mike grinned as he finished shaving and wiped the remaining shaving
cream off of his face. He slapped on some shaving lotion and put on his
best dress pants and sweater. Finishing up, he turned to Basil...
"How do I look?" He asked
"Like a real sex symbol, Mike!" Basil said winking.
Mike grinned and put on his jacket.
"Thanks! I think so too!" He said.
Basil snorted and grinned.
"Yeah, and someday when you're a history professor or something, women
will be fainting in your arms at the side of you." he said rolling his
eyes.
"Oh, Piss off. I can't help it if you haven't been laid in three
months."
Mike laughed.
He ran past Basil narrowly avoiding getting punched on the arm.
Laughing he waved to him as he walked out the door...
"Don't walk on a patch of ice and fall on your arse!" Basil called out
in a falsetto voice.
"Yes, mum!" Mike said in a kid's voice as he shut the door....

Mike parked his car and grinned at Rebecca. They had had a wonderful
evening even though their 'dinner' consisted of Big Mac's and french
fries. After that, they had gone to see Beach Blanket Bingo with
Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello. The movie hadn't been all that
great, but the darkened theater was perfect for making out...
"I had a wonderful time tonight, Mike. It was the best evening I've had
in a long time." Rebecca said squeezing his hand.
"Me too." Mike said.
He kissed her lips and thought how delicious they tasted. He never
wanted this night to end. He knew as soon as he got back to the dorm
room, Basil would be up wanting to hear all the details...
"I wish this could last forever." Mike said to Rebecca. Rebecca
smiled at him.
"There is a way...a way for the two of us to be together forever."
Mike looked at her in confusion. He wondered what she meant by that...
"I don't understand..." He said quietly.
Rebecca smiled and pulled Mike down onto the seat. She put her mouth on
the side of his neck and began to kiss and suck at his flesh as Mike
moaned in response. He shivered as she ran her hands up under his
sweater and began to run her icy cold fingers up and down his chest. As
Rebecca continued kissing him, he raised his head and began to suck on
her neck and nip at her skin with his teeth. Rebecca let out a growl at
this and worked her way back down to Mike's neck sucking harder. Mike's
breath came in gasps as he felt himself growing hard.
He never felt so much intense pleasure in all his wife. He finally had
found the person he wanted to spend his life with...
Suddenly, Mike's eyes widened and his mouth opened in a silent scream
as he felt Rebecca bite down on his jugular. He fought to get up, but
she grabbed his hands and held them back over his head pinning him to
the seat with an incredible burst of strength. Mike jerked his head
from left to right trying to get Rebecca off of him as she began to lap
up the blood running from his jugular vein. He slowly stopped
struggling as he felt his strength begin to leave him. As Rebecca
continued to feed, Mike's heart slowed and his vision began to blur as
his life ebbed from his body. Just as his heart was about to stop,
Rebecca stopped feeding and propped herself up to look at Mike who was
gasping for breath. As he watched her, she bit down on her wrist and
began to drip her blood into Mike's open mouth...
"This is what I meant by forever..." she said watching with fascination
as the drops of blood dripped down.
"No matter where you go or what you do, you'll be mine and mine alone."
She watched as Mike began to convulse underneath her. Her vampire blood
transforming him into the undead. Mike shook violently and then with
one last gasp, he died. Rebecca waited a moment, and then smiled as
Mike suddenly blinked and stared at her in shock.
"I'll see you in class Monday." she said to him as she opened the car
door.
Slamming it shut, she grinned as she left Mike lying on the front seat.

Eric laid the journal on his lap and stared down in disbelief at the
pages. He couldn't believe what he had just read...
It couldn't be true. Mike wasn't a vampire! He had seen him out in the
daylight, for christ's sake. He knew it would explain some of Mike's
weird behavior over the years though...
Eric shook his head...
No! It was just too unbelievable. And yet....
Thoughts of Mike's behavior at the meeting and his expressions when he
looked at Terry's jugular and the blood came flooding back to him.
Could it really be true?
A sudden knock on the door jolted Eric out of his thoughts. He glanced
at the bedside clock and saw it was almost 1 AM. Wondering who would be
out this early in the morning, he got out of bed and grabbed his robe.
Slipping it on and tying it, he walked to the door and opened it. His
eyes widened as he saw Mike standing in the hall with his arms folded
over his chest...
"Where's my journal?" He said.
