I sat on a bench at an empty park, playing with a small rock that I made float in the air. Today was rainy boring and time seemed to drag on. Even this rock was beginning to be boring. I sighed and pretended to crush something in my hand. At the same time the rock crumbled into dust. I waved my finger around in circles, the dust following along.

I remember the first day I got this strange power. At the time I was only 8 years old. It totally freaked me out to know that I could make my action figures magically float. But at the same time it was kind of cool to have this sort of power. It was also very hard to figure out how to control it.

Through the years I've learned how to on my own. Nobody knew of my little secret. If people found out, well then I'd be screwed. I would be looked at as the biggest freak on earth and I would never be left alone. So for now I plan on keeping this a secret.

I blew onto the tip of my finger, causing the dust to fly away. I was just about to make another rock float to me when I heard footsteps coming my way. Quickly I looked down, my hair covering my face. I didn't like people, and being the new guy in town, wasn't stopping them from leaving me alone.

"Have room for one more on that bench?" a voice I recognized spoke. I looked up to see a pale face boy, with piercing green eyes and a smirk on his face. Ryan.

"Of course" I smiled at him and patted the open seat next to me.

"So what's a innocent little boy like you sitting all alone for?" he asked, looking at his black painted nails.

"I was just bored so I came here" I shrugged not taking my eyes off of him.

Why did he have to be so damn attractive? He looks like a ladies man, but his actions say he's something else. By something else I don't just mean sexuality based, I mean come on that giggle I was hearing yesterday, kind of feminine if you ask me. But that wasn't the point. Ryan Pierce was something more than all the other people I've known. I just didn't know what.

I also didn't care if he was something that wasn't human. Heck, he could be a werewolf for all I care. Lets get real though, that would be hot and all but theres no such thing. Plus the guy wasn't buff or hairy, he was slim and his skin seemed to be soft and smooth. All I wanted was to feel his lips on mine. His smirks and grins made it so hard to resist just kissing him right then and there. And the way everything about him screamed "Danger don't fuck with me!" was pulling me even closer to him. Of course I didn't buy that whole bad boy act, but he was sexy and mysterious like some are. God I wanted him!

"Hello, anybody home?" Ryan snapped his fingers in front of my face. I blinked, a pink blush starting to form on my face.

"I'm sorry what?" I looked down, covering my face with my hair.

"Do.You.Want.To.Go.Some.Where?" he asked slowly like he was explaining something to a 5 year old for the tenth time. I peeked up at him through my bangs, seeing yet another sexy smirk on his face, though it kind of looked like he was in pain.

"Uh I can't I have to be home in a while to help my dad with.." I was cut off by shivers going down my spine. Ryan placed kisses up my neck until his lips met my ear. Gay, he has to be, or at least bisexual.

"Come on it'll be fun, and besides I think your dad wont mind if your making new friends" he whispered in my ear. I was lost at words. Instead I nodded like an idiot, making his smirk creep into a smile. Quickly he got up and grabbed my hand.

"Great, lets go my angel boy!" he giggled and pulled me off along with him.

"Where do you plan on taking me?" I walked beside him, struggling to keep up with his pace.

He glanced at me and chuckled, slowing down only a little bit.

"No where, just going on a walk" he squeezed my hand. Why was he still holding it?

"So how about the weather, pretty bad huh?" he asked, trying to keep a conversation.

"I don't mind the rain, I kind of like it" I smiled slightly, kicking a small puddle.

"I don't mind it to much either, I rather have rain than sun" he looked at me with his green eyes and smiled. "You know you're not like all the other boys Destry, you're different and I like that" I looked back at him, completely lost in his eyes.

Does he mean like as in 'like like'? Every part of me wanted it to be like that, but what would I do about my secret? Would I tell him? I don't think it would be easy to hide my special talent, and if Ryan found out he'd think I'm a freak.

"Damn this.." I growled to myself.

"What?" Ryan looked at me confused.

I shook my head, "Nothing just thinking."

"About what?" he asked.

"Well..it's hard to explain and I wouldn't want to lose you if you knew..you're kind of my only friend.." Boyfriend is what I wanted him to be. I'm not fully gay and don't really go for the guys, or anyone really, but there was something about Ryan that just made me so drawn to him. And lets face it, a healthy relationship can't start off with secrets. I mean, what?..

"Oh please I wouldn't leave you for anything, just tell me" he put his arm around my shoulder.

I took in a deep breath as he waited patiently for me to speak.

"I'm not normal Ryan, not how you think.." I finally spoke. He raised an eyebrow, looking at me questioningly. I took in another deep breath and began to tell him everything. From the first day I noticed my powers to today. He listened carefully, not looking the slighted bit of weirded out.

"Well?" I asked, finally finishing. Ryan didn't answer, we both stood in silence. I could tell he was thinking, but I didn't know what about. "Oh god I knew it! I knew you'd take me as a freak I just-" I was cut off by a pair of lips crushing against mine. Almost instantly I kissed back. His lips felt to good against mine. I wrapped my arms around his waist and pulled him closer to me. I could feel his cold fingers curl in the hair on the back of my neck.

People were walking by, some giving us weird stares. I didn't care and neither Ryan seemed to either. This was all too good to be true.

We stayed like this for a few long seconds until finally he pulled away. To be honest I didn't want it to end, but when I looked into his eyes they were no longer that piercing green, they were black.

"You're not human.." I breathed against his lips.

"I-I'm not.." he hesitated but answered.

"What are you?" I asked, still looking into his eyes.

"That's for you to find out" he smirked, pulling away from my hold. I narrowed my eyes at him as he walked away. I will find out what Ryan Pierce is.
