Eternally (1)

Okay, you wanna know about me? Okay, I'll tell you ALL about me.

My name's Maxine Crimson Renoon, I'm twenty-one, my mum died when I was 6, my dad has a new wife and two sons and lives in America, I've only ever been in one serious relationship, I live in a gorgeous flat in England and, oh yeah...I'm a vampire.

Oooh, big shock and horror! Whateva, like I give a shit what you think. I suppose you wanna know how I'm a vampire, I mean, I wasn't born one and my parents were 100% human. Okay, I'll tell you.

When I was 18, I had a boyfriend called Callum. He was the same age as me, the perfect Adonis, had his own flat and he told me he loved me. We had been going out for a year and one day I fell asleep on his bed.
I woke up as I felt what I thought was fire, flowing through my entire body and I screamed, screamed and screamed and screamed. My whole body was burning and I couldn't even see why, I didn't understand what was happening. It seemed like I was burning for years and years, but when the fire disappeared, Callum told me it had only been three days. When he told me what I had become I hated his guts, I tried to bite him, then I tried to kill him. But Callum had been a vampire for ten years, he was better at fighting and stuff and he had me pinned down on the ground in seconds.

I'm not gonna lie and tell you that I was fine with being around humans as soon as. I've read the Twilight books, and yes I thought they were awesome, and yes I also fell in love with Edward, but that didn't happen to ME.

I couldn't step one foot outside Callum's flat without going into a mad frenzy for some poor fool's blood. I even managed to lure one into Callum's flat and suck him dry, it wasn't hard. I was undeniably beautiful, my brown hair had gone black and wavy, and my eyes were red but big and framed by very long eyelashes. My lips were full and pink, my skin was clear and hard like granite, I was graceful and...okay I was basically like Bella. Just taller and curvier. I was a man-magnet.

Callum brought me animal blood and stuff but the smell wasn't nearly as mouth-watering as human blood. It took me a year to be able to ignore human blood and just be a 'vegetarian'. And when I could I dumped Callum and bought my own flat on a road called Queen Gardens. I suppose you thought that I'd stay with Callum and we'd be brilliant mates and be together for all Eternity. Sorry, none of that shit actually happened. I dumped the asshole; I couldn't stand to be around him. He had changed me without my permission, basically ruined my life, the bastard. I was going to be a journalist, get married to a hunk and have kids!

Vampires can't have kids! Sure I could still be a Journalist but it didn't interest me as much as before. I wanted something more exciting. I mean, I had powers for god sake. Oh yeah, did I tell you about them? I guess not. I can erase people's memories. No lie, I can erase anybody's memory. What fucking use is that?! I suppose it can come in handy for when I accidentally let my façade slip but...why can't I read minds? Or see into the future or change people's emotions? No, I'm a fucking memory eraser. What bollocks.

But also i have another gift, it happened when I got knocked over by someone stupid dickhead in a Ford. Aside from killing my mother, it had an effect on my brain. From the age of 6, i could close my eyes, imagine a place I wanted to be, and go there. I could imagine an island, with a gorgeous little hut or tree house or something and go there. I could feel the sand beneath my toes, the wind whipping my hair into my face, the salty taste on my tongue and the sound of the sea in my ears. Of course when I told my dad and anyone who would listen, they put it down to my powerful 6 year old imagination. They didn't really notice that I would disappear for an hour every day, sometimes longer. It was awesome.

All that crap about fangs and being nocturnal, it ain't true. Not one word, so if you wanted all that old school shit, you better close this page, 'cause there ain't none here.
I have friends, human and vampire. My best friend is a vampire called Jem, I found her lying in an alleyway when I was 20, she was half-way through a transformation. Me being the kind soul that I am, I brought her back to my flat and took care of her. Now she lives a few flats down on Queen Gardens.
Do you wanna know her power? Or gift, whateva you wanna call it. She can mesmerize people. You know, kinda like hypnotizing people, only using her eyes. Her eyes can change color, whichever she wishes. It's not fair, I'm older yet she gets a much better fucking gift then me!

Anyway, we look like twins, only I'm taller and my eyes are a sort of gold/amber, hers are usually silver (her favorite color).
I don't have a job, because I'm self-employed. You're gonna laugh when you read what i do. But like I said, I don't give two shits. I look out for the neophyte vampires, i make sure they don't go blood binging. I stop the Vampires from fighting with the Werewolves (yes they exist too) and I beat the crap outta the assholes who think making neophytes is cool. I'm an awesome fighter, I can handle guns and knives and all that shit, and I can kill a vampire if needs be.

I can switch my emotions off whenever I need to. Of course it's been three years since I've had any kind of relationship with a guy, so I have to yet to feel love for anyone. But as Jem keeps on telling me, it's only a matter of time.

Jeez, I've been rambling on about my shitty details for ages. Now, back to the present.
