Today was the first day of the hell that people called school. To be honest I was not looking forward to it. I was surprised that Jay agreed to let me attend to that stupid place. Turns out he was planning to send me to one anyways, because it would "Teach me responsibility". Oh bite me, I know what I need to do and look after, and that was nothing. Nothing at all!

I groaned, stripping down from the clothes I was wearing and stepping into the shower. The water ran down my body, including the scar on my wrist that was left when I was changed. I looked at it and sighed, dropping my hand back down to my side. He did it for the best..

Once I was done with my shower, I stepped out and hurried to get dressed. Thinking I shouldn't have to tell people to stay away from me, I wore something that would show it for me. So today I wore something a little more dark than usual. My hair was straightened and slightly messy to where I wanted it to be. Black skinny jeans that were ripped at the knees, went nicely with my black top that said "Satan Worships Me" in big hot pink letters. My choice in clothing seemed to hug my slim body perfectly, which at least made me feel better about myself this morning. Last to come on was my black boots and accessories.

Glancing at the clock, I saw it was close to the start of school so I rushed downstairs, bumping into my stone wall of a brother. And being the stick that I am, it easily knocked me down.

"Well good morning to you to little brother" he chuckled and helped me up. I rubbed the back of my head and rolled my eyes.

"Good morning brother dearest" I said in an icey tone. He grinned and reached his hand out to ruffle my hair. Quickly I moved away, causing him to almost fall over. I giggled, making my way to the door.

"And goodbye brother dearest" I shut the door behind me, hearing him hiss as I left.

Once I had gotten to Destry's house, his mother let me in and welcomed me with a warm smile. I smiled back at her and hurried up to his bedroom. This boy better be up and ready I thought to myself as I opened the door.

"Oh hell no" I groaned, seeing that he was still asleep. Placing a hand on my hip, I sighed and shook my head, walking to him. "Destry we're going to be late, now wake up!" I shook his shoulder gently. He mumbled something I couldn't quite understand and turned his back against me.

"I swear Destry if you do not get up right now.." I began to say but he covered his head with a pillow. Oh so he wants to play that game.. I narrowed my eyes then got on top of him, straddling him. "Destryyy" I sang in a calm quiet voice, running my cold hands up his sides. In response was a snore. I then started to bounce on the bed, yelling at him to get up.

He groaned, turning around to face me as he woke. I smiled and sat back down on him.

"Hello there sleeping beauty, your charming prince has come to wake you" I pecked his lips.

"If anything Ryan you're the princess" he got up and headed to bathroom. I shook my head and looked around his room.

Posters of rock bands hung in frames along the dark blue painted walls. There was a few of them that had his favorite band, Bring Me The Horizon. To me it seemed he was a little too obsessed with that band, and their lead singer Oliver Sykes. But it was silly of me to get jealous over something like that.

Seeing that Destry was taking to long in the shower, I skipped over to his closet and pick out some clothes for him. He hated when I tried to dress him, because supposly it made him feel like a five year old, but I didn't care. I could do whatever I want. After all I am a vampire and I always get my way.

I picked out a pair of dark grey skinny jeans and a plain slim-fit v-neck, along with his favorite black TOMS. Soon after I was done picking out his things, Destry came out of the bathroom with only a towel on. My eyes went wide at the sight of his exposed torso and chest. Quickly I looked away before I lost it and then we would never get to school.

"Ryan I told you about picking out my clothes" he groaned.

"Oh hush and put them on before we're late" I handed them to him. Using his powers, Destry put his clothes on all at once. His pants, shirt, shoes, and accessories where all on without a minute to waste.

"Well I'll be damned, you dress yourself faster than I do!" I pouted and folded my arms over my chest. He chuckled, grabbing his black Levi jacket from the closet and put it on.

"If you weren't so obsessed with your hair then maybe it would be faster" he teased and began to hurry downstairs.

"Sorry for trying to look decent babe, it's just compared to you well.." I trailed off, lost for the right words. He raised an eyebrow and shook his head in disagreement. I giggled and followed along.

My throat felt like it was scorching with flames once we came in contact with the building. I've never been in a crowded place like a school. There was reasons why I didn't go to them anymore and this was one.

"Ryan your eyes" Destry whispered, looking around for any people that might be staring. I nodded and quickly pulled out my water bottle that was full of blood. Once I took a drink of it my eyes went back to their normal color and the burning disappeared.

He gave my hand a gentle squeeze before pulling me along inside. Already we got millions of stares just by walking down the hall hand in hand. I don't get why they all have to stare, love is love after all. There were plenty of gay citizens in this small town, you just had to look carefully.

A few students whispered to each other, mentioning my name.

"That's the Pierce kid, didn't think he'd be seen here. Guess mister bad boy wanted to fuck this place up too."

"What a douche..he looks fake."

Then again they could be staring for other reasons. I promised Jay I wouldn't get into fights but I didn't promise I wouldn't make people piss their pants. And there was no way in hell mortals were going to talk crap about me and get away with it.

Letting go of Destry's hand, I calmly made my way over to the two male preps. As they were too busy laughing to acknowledge my existence, loudly I slammed my hand down hard onto the locker, just a few inches away from one of the boys face. Both jumped, shooting harsh glares at me. Though I could make out the fear they held towards me.

"Haven't you heard? Fake is the new trend" I towered over the guy, staring deep into his eyes "Though I don't follow trends honey, and one shouldn't judge a book by its cover. The book may have a bad ending for the preppy boy.." I whispered the last part into his ear causing him to shiver.

I heard Destry scoff behind me and tap his foot. Smiling widely exposing my fangs to the friends for a split second, I then turned back to Destry, taking his hand in mine again. He shook his head, squeezing my hand and bringing it up to his lips to kiss it.

A few girls by their lockers glanced at us and giggled to one another. I looked at them and they all hid their red faces. I rolled my eyes. "Human girls" I scoffed. Destry look at me confused, but smiled. Luckily I would be seeing that smile all day long. We had all the same classes together, except for last period which was science. Oh joy..

~~

It was lunch time already and the cafeteria was loud with gossip and stories about the summer. I raised my eyebrows at a couple of girls that past by, talking about this silly little vampire TV show. Oh the poor things had no clue about real vampires like myself, maybe I would show them later on.

"Don't even think about it Ryan" Destry said, noticing the way I was looking at the girls. I looked back at him and smiled an innocent smile. He rolled his blue eyes and kissed my cheek, ignoring the stares we got from the people walking by.

"I'm going to go get some lunch, will you find us a table?" he asked, already walking toward the lunch line. I nodded and began to walk to the first open table I saw.

As I sat waiting, I noticed that people had already settled themselves in groups. Punks, Geeks, Populars, Skaters, and everything in between. At least there was something similar to what Jay was telling me about. This generation was definitely built on labels. Poor fools..

"Watch it you fairy!" I heard from across the room. I looked to see Destry and another boy who seemed to be a wrestler for the school, standing face to face.

"Oh really I'm the fairy? Last time I checked I'm not the one who wrestles other boys while in tights" he grinned. By the look on the jock's face, I could tell he was about ready to pound Destry.

"What the hell did you just say to me?" the boy growled, shoving Des back. Quickly I got up, slamming my hand on the table and walked over to them, standing in front of Destry. The room went quiet and now all eyes were on us.

"The real question is, what the fuck do you think you're doing to him?" I growled, standing straight and tall even though the boy was slightly taller.

"Who are you, his butt buddy boyfriend?" he laughed, nudging his friend beside him.

"As a matter of fact I am, and you and your boyfriends- I mean butt buddies" I smirked "Should go along and pound each other in the boys locker room some more".

The wrestler's face turned red in rage. He grabbed me by my shirt and pulled me closer to him, his hot breath puffing in my face. I gagged and covered my nose.

"Let him down you asshole!" Destry yelled and tried to break me free. The jock shoved him onto the ground where his buddies got a hold of him. My eyes went wide from the smell of Destry's blood from his now busted lip.

Before I knew it, a fist collided with my face and I too was on the ground. I touched the corner of my nose as dark liquid known as vampire blood, oozed out. I glared at the jock and growled lowly, my eyes now black in anger. He took notice in them and flinched back a bit once I started to get up.

"Fight, fight, fight, fight!" The room started to chant. Just as I was about to rip the boys head off, his buddies grabbed hold of me. Their grip was strong, not human like at all. They were way to smelly and hairy to be vampires though.

"Werewolves.." I hissed under my breath. The leader chuckled and took another swing at me, this time at my stomach. And then another at my face. Pain shot through my body, bring me to my knees. I heard Destry groan in pain on the floor, which made me almost lose it completely.

The last thing I wanted to do what get in trouble on my first day of school. But seeing my love hurt by those bastard werewolves made me lose it.

"Don't.You.Dare.Ever.Touch. Him.Again!" I said each word through clenched teeth, as I punched the jock repeatedly in the face. His nose cracked under the force of my fist smashing against him. I would have bit the mutt and killed him if it wasn't for Destry stopping me from doing so.

"Ryan please calm down" he wrapped his arm tightly around my torso. I sighed and got up but not before spitting venom on the dog's face.

I flipped my hair out of my eyes, looking around at the shocked faces of teenagers. I looked down at my bloody hands and quickly shoved them in my pockets. The bell then rang and everybody hurried to get to class. Sighing, I sat down at the table and put my head in may hands.

"Can we please just blow off the rest of the day?" My voice cracked in pain. Destry pulled me into a tight hug and kissed the top of my head.

"I'm with you on this one babe, lets get the hell outta here before we get caught" he took my hand and lead me out of the school.

We walked to our special hide out and stood there for the rest of the day. It was peaceful staring into each others eyes in silence. It was one of my favorite things to do because it was relaxing, almost like sleep.

Destry yawned and I pulled him close to my chest. My fingers played with strands of his soft hair as he fell asleep in my arms. I looked down at him, tears starting to form in my eyes as I saw the damage on him left by the jocks. His lip was busted and under his right eye was purple and blue. He groaned a little in his sleep gasping at his side where there was possibly a bruise. I kissed his cheek and carefully sat up and held him in a position where there wouldn't be so much weight on his side. I rocked back and forth slowly, causing him to calm down and fall asleep peacefully.

"Bloody fucking werewolves.." I thought to myself.
