Okay. So I know this story is finished.

However, I feel as though an explanation is needed. 'Cause the story ends abruptly.

Luckily, there is a sequel. So the story isn't over.

Anywhooo,

Let's get this started.

Firstly, this is something that applies to all of my stories:

I hate plotting things out.

I'm the type of person to set up how exactly I want my story to start, continue, and then end. And then when that's done, I end up throwing in details that make the story better. But deviate from what I've planned.

So for that reason, I leave a lot of walk room.

I have a start. But there's no middle or end planned out.

I originally wanted the story to end with the two dating and then breaking up.

However, as I was writing, the idea of Caleb being ill came into play. And then from that idea came the ending.

Even as I was writing the ending, I was like, 'wait, maybe I should go back and change this' blah blah blah.

Because I have so many ideas running through my head and many plans, nothing I start is ever completed.

And if it's completed, it's never completed to my liking.

Anyways,

Caleb has schizophrenia.

This become totally clear when he tells Minho about his family.

After stating that his dad had it, he also states that sometimes he still hears his family.

Also, in the very first chapter, he stated not wanting to waste his parent's money.

Like they're still alive.

But they're dead.

Andrew isn't real.

Andrew was the name of one of Caleb's past relationship-ers (lol).

He's supposed to take medicine. But he doesn't.

He doesn't like the way it makes him feel. However, this fact isn't really discovered until later on in the book.

Minho and Yuno are real however, they're not really vampires.

Caleb doesn't die at the end.

You think he does. But it's a dream.

Just about the whole story is a dream.

The vampires. The suspicious men hanging out with Yuno. Yuno kidnapping Caleb.

It was all just a twisted dream.

The book ends where the story began - With Minho just coming in to the picture.

But where does the dream start?

The dream starts when Minho mentions that he is a vampire.

That night [the night where Caleb outs himself for liking Minho], after Minho told him that he was a vampire (or after he heard that), he went to sleep.

From there on, the dream starts.

And the story revolves around Minho being a blood-hungry, sex-hungry vampire.

As for the ending, why did the dream end with Caleb dying?

That honestly was just made up.

When the schizophrenia came in to play, my ending idea changed.

Caleb should've killed himself because something told him to.

But instead, I made it the way I did so that I could make a book two.

Anywhoooo, I hope this helped out a little.

Once again, thank you for reading.

If you enjoyed my story, thank you.

If the story confused you, I know. Lol. Sorry.

If you didn't like the story, well ... thanks for reading it anyways.
