As I walk through the door expect it to be empty, to my surprise I hear the TV on in the living room. I poke my head into the doorway to see what I assume is my father sitting on the couch with my mother nowhere is sight. I walked quietly upstairs to my corner bedroom where could finally settle down for the night.

Slumping onto my bed, I look over at my desk filled with school work I don't even want to do. My mind reels over tonight's events, why did I react that way to the red moon, what did I do to Ren? I'm glad Ren cared enough to walk me home but did he have to be a creep about it. I hope no one got the wrong idea about it.  

"Sigh. I guess I won't be sleeping tonight especially after slept all that time in Ren's house." my face feels hot.

"Argh! Damn it!" I yell, rolling around on my bed. "Why is that the thing that sticks with me!"

I hear someone's foot steps coming towards my room. I sit up on my bed as the door creaks open.

"Honey? I thought you were spending the night at Danny's?" Mom asked.

"Something came up and I didn't want to impose." I reply.

"Alright, do you want anything for dinner? Your father and I already ate."

"No thanks, I ate over at Danny's." 

"Alright. Tell me if you change your mind." She says opening my door.

"I will thank you mom."

Mom closes my door and I hear her go down the stairs.

"I guess will try to do some homework." I sit down at desk.

That night I fell asleep at my desk. I start to dream about the red moon, my hunger growing until I bit down on Ren crushing him. I stand over his lifeless body wanting more I howl. 

Startled wake, covered in sweat, my heart pounding, in a daze I stare at the clock in my room. After minutes pass, my heart calming I notice that its almost time for me to get up for school.
