Alex did not go to bed as early as he would have liked. His father called an emergency meeting but they soon realized they were no closer to finding a solution as to what to do about the vampires. They talked, plotted and researched well into the morning light, and afternoon. Eventually Alex's father gave him the night off so he wouldn't be so tired at school but Alex found it hard to sleep until he was utterly exhausted.

Collin too decided to shower and soon afterwards he fell asleep. When he woke up in the afternoon, he decided to do his homework like all good students doing it the day before rather then when it was assigned. It was then that he picked up his phone and blushed at Jeremys text -hee just think happy thoughts C< I know I do.- He wondered if now was still a good time to ask about joining the school, especially since Mr. Royson probably didn't want a vampire in his history classes.
