Chapter 1 sleepless night

I lay in bed with the candle light still on, while reading one of my favorite books.
It was having a Thunderstorm, one of my favorite things. It's a good excuse for me to stay in my room, away from everybody else.

I hummed softly closing the book and coming off the bed.
The cold floor against my feet causing me to wince. I hate my feet being cold.
I took the candle, before going over to the window, opening it so i could be able to see the sky as it rained.

But after a while of staring outside I began to hear a cry...
' Who was crying? ' I thought, was it koichi? probably not, if he needed anything he'd have come me.

I sighed, finally, and headed towards my bedroom door opening it and heading down the candle lit hall.
The floor was also as cold as my bedroom floor.
I tiptoed quietly pass my brothers chambers, careful not to wake them.
But when i heard the sound of a door opening behind me, I knew I failed.
    " Why are you lurking so late at night? " Dracula's deep, baritone voice echoed from behind me. damn, why did he have to wake up.
" Mm just a midnight snack " I lied turning to face my annoying brother.
" Oh, well in that case, can you get me a bloody Mary, just one small glass " he said.
" As you wish my dear brother " I said.
" Why so nice? " Dracula raised a curious brow.
" Oh, I'm too sleepy to argue."  I simply shrugged. I then continued down the hallway and finally towards the stairs.

I walked down the narrow stairs careful not to drop the candle I was holding.
The crying had stopped but I was now smelling a different sense of smell and it did not smell like any of my brothers or my sister, but it did smell... Strange. Odd.

I finally reached down the stairs, the living room was almost pitch black for there was no candles down there.
I went to every candle on the wall lighting them to see in the living room clearly since I was too sleepy to use my clearer vision.
The room was empty, no one was there.
So where was i hearing that cry.
And suddenly, there was the cry again, —even louder—and it sounds like it was coming from outside.

I hurried to the door and opened it,
Outside was quite windy due to the storm and I was getting a bit wet which was annoying.
I blocked the candle from the rain and scanned the yard.
My eyes crossed something that was right in front of me on the ground.
I looked down and I nearly shrieked! it was a human baby in a basket!
      What the fuck?
How did it even get her?
  Did a human found this place?
Or worse, would they come back with more humans?! And torches to burn this place down.
All  horrible  thoughts  clouded  my mind and I had no idea what the fuck I was going to do with this. . . really cute baby, actually.

I looked down at the not so small infant, it appeared to be like maybe two years old or probably three I had no idea, but it could walk that's for certain.
" Mama whole me."  the baby started reaching it's tiny hand out to me.
Oh how cute, wait? Mama?
Eew.
I sighed debating on whether I should just throw this baby as far as I can or keep it...
But I have no idea how to take care of a baby much less feed it.

I sighed holding the bridge of my nose, ' what should I do? what should I do? ' I repeated in my head but I couldn't do anything but take the little thing inside it might get a cold or get sick which is the same thing.
I sighed once more looking down at the baby who was looking up at me with big blue eyes as it sucked it's spitty fingers.
I sighed loudly and picked up the basket, carrying it inside before shutting the door.
" What took you so long? "
My head snapped up at that voice.
It was Dracula.
He stood at the end of the stairs holding a candle.
" What's that? " He asked gesturing to the basket.
" Uhh... Why do you want to know? '' I asked, holding it behind my back.
" Because it's my business '' he said flatly.
" And how exactly is it your business? " I asked.
" Just show me, or I'll just force you " Dracula threatens.
" You know you can't do that " I faked yawned then stared at him with a bored look.
" Show me, " he insisted, stepping closer to me but I stepped back.
" Just show me it's already late an-
"And you should go back to bed, there's no point minding other people's business " I said cutting him off.
He stared at me for a while before he finally turned to go upstairs.
" Ma! I huggy! " oh, shit, shit, shit!
  Drack stopped in his tracks, and I cringed, I can't believe that fucking baby couldn't keep it's mouth shut for just a minute!

" What was that? " Dracula turned, with a suspicious look.
" Mm what was what? " I frowned in confusion.
" That... Baby sound? " He stared at me strangely.
" Huh? Baby sound? What the fuck are you talking about, I didn't hear anything." I said.
" Huh.. " he scoffed then turned back slowly and headed back up the stairs.
" Whew " I said quietly.
damn, that was a close one. Shit I think it said it was hungry.

So I ended up making baby food in the middle of the night.
I swear I had bags under my eyes or I'm just exaggerating.
I love my beautiful face too much.
I sat on the counter, furiously mashing bananas in a bowl with milk which is good for babies I don't know... But they do drink milk.
I took a honey bottle and poured it in then i shook it up nicely till It was looking creamy  I then gave it to the baby which it happily took and started drinking.
After the milk was finished it burped and threw the bottle on the floor how rude.

" Okay, it's bed time for you." I picked it up from the basket and carried it to a corner in the living room behind the sofa.
I placed the basket down and went to the stairs but as soon as I reached there the baby started wailing and crying loudly.

I groaned out in frustration. Am I gonna get any sleep at all tonight?

I walked back to the baby and took it up, but it was still screaming and crying.
" Shit." I had no idea how to stop it from crying.
Wait, i probably do.
I do recall mom shaking koichi whenever he cried and he'd soon stop.

I shook the baby like crazy, because I really wanted it to stop crying, like immediately, only it didn't, the crying only got louder as it kicked and screamed almost blowing my eardrums.

Damnit! What the fuck is the matter with this baby? And how am I gonna make it stop crying?

I needed my beauty sleep, for heaven's sake.

I covered it's mouth and head up stairs to my room tip toeing pass everyone's room and hurrying to mine.
I opened the huge door to my chambers and scurried in closing the door to prevent the babies sounds from being heard.
" Ma... Boo " the baby said yawning then it cuddled up next to me how cute, but I'm starting to dislike this little brat.
I yawned rubbing my eyes.
Shit, I wondered what the time was.

I slowly walked over to my bed and slowly set the baby down careful not to wake it.
Then I covered it with my blanket and head to the other side of the bed and climbed in.
I yawned covering my mouth I hated it yawning it's so not beautiful.
