--- Chapter 1 ---

Brian turned around, certainly not the first time that night. Again he turns and looks at his digital clock. 2:15 am.

�Great!� he mutters.

With a sigh he sat up. The sheets felt cold on his skin. He put his bare foot on the linoleum and slowly walks to the window. There he stands for a couple of minutes, only dressed in his blue boxers. The night is silent and Brain stares in thought for a moment at the moon, then he turns and leaves his bedroom. He slowly walks down the stairs and enters his living room, then, with a sigh, he sits down on his couch and turns on the tv.

�What�s the whole point of being awake anywayz��

Bored he goes through all the channels. Some show the news, other people with wrong haircuts and smiles who are trying to sell useless stuff, movies where naked ladies doing stuff Brian doesn�t even want to know, he sees Oprah and the famous doctor Phill and then he spots a very old horror movie. A movie where you can see that the background is made of cardboard and the vampire has got teeth that can fall out of his mouth any minute. With a smile Brian watches this movie. It�s always so cute to see those actors be afraid of something that is just so NOT scary. But at 3:00 am the movie is over and is replaced by commercials who don�t seem to end for that night. Brian turns the tv of and a moment he hesitates if he should go to his bed. Then he shakes his head, he had never felt so not sleepy in his live, so it would be no use.

He starts to wander through his house. It�s kinda big for him alone, but he simply hopes that one day it would be filled with his family. Brian had never felt so restless before. He wasn�t able to sit down, calmly, with a book or something like that. He just needed to wander around in his house. He wrote some words down on a paper, a little idea for a song. Then he stopped again for a window and stared outside. The moon was really shining beautiful this night and the stars too.

�You�re my shining star, that is what you are�� song Brian softly.

Then he opened the doors to his garden and walks outside, completely forgetting that he�s still only wearing his boxershorts. He walks trough the grass and then sits down in the middle of it. He doesn�t even notice that the grass is wet and how he starts to shiver because of the cold, night air. He just looks in the air staring at the moon and thinking about a lot of things. He doesn�t notice the young man who is observing him, from between the bushes. The young man with a pale, white skin and long black hair with purple shining on it. His dark eyes glitter while he observes Brian who seems to be totally spaced out at the moment. He walks a little closer, but still Brian doesn�t hear him.

�A new friend� finally,� the man whispers.

With a smile on his face he leaves Brian alone. Brian stays sitting there for more then 2 hours until he stands up again.

�At least the night is almost over now��

Brian walks inside and sits down on his couch again. A moment he hesitates to put the tv on again, but then he decides to just sit down. He shivers from the cold and hugging his knees he waits until the day really starts.
