Sweet-Blood

Sweet-Blood
by Pete Hautman

Lucy Szabo is your normal teen, or at least she thinks so. Of course, to her, everyone around her is far too concerned with appearances and behaving according to a code to be normal, which makes them abnormal.
.
Of course, Lucy has a secret. By her own definition, she's the Undead. To her, anyone who must rely on modern medicine and technology to survive is Undead. And, since she can't survive one day without insulin to treat her diabetes, that makes her one of the walking dead. She even has a theory about people with diabetes: they are the original vampires.
.
Recently, Lucy has been letting her vampire theory dominate her life. She's dyed her hair black, taken to wearing only black clothing (but don't you dare call her goth), and begun going to late night parties when she's supposed to be grounded at home.
.
Could Lucy's new friends really be vampires? Could she really be getting in a little too deep with them? And could her new outlook on life actually be the thing that leads to her death?
