All the little noises -open-

[Ethan Wate]

LIFE... WELL, IT'S FULL OF HAUNTING SURPRISES.

Life wasn't as fun as it used to be. Everyone wasn't in a cheerful mood, laughing, playing, running around, just like the Elementary children. Heck even those kids were sitting around moping all day. I couldn't wait till I could get out of this place, it was a total dump now that those Strigoi had trashed it my freshman year. No matter how hard the administration worked, it just would never be the same as it once was. That was the depressing part.

It actually wasn't such a bad day. It was just beginning to become early morning for Moroi. Deciding to see the sun, you've got to wake early. These were the times of day I had to myself. Well, that and right before bed. Being a guardian you didn't really have much clothing to worry about. The basics were jeans and a T-shirt. But here in Montana, even in Spring you needed a sweatshirt. Slipping one on as I tied some shoes, standing and walking out the dorms, hands in my pockets.

The door opened as a blast of cold air hit my face, waking me up and refreshing my body. It was nice to get out every once in a while. It was a Saturday, no classes. Breakfast would start in about an hour. As everyday, I'm glad I'm not being followed. Sometimes Ivanka would join me, but that didn't look like today.

Stretching my legs a bit, I headed for the courtyard. I've always loved this spot, it was the most sunny right before the sun disappeared. Walking through the dew covered grass, I sat and listened to the birds sing their wonderful tune, just before turning in for the night.

Around St. Vladimir's Academy, you never heard noises from the critters that roam free. The time schedules were totally different. This was the last time you heard them before it was complete silence. This school only had noises from the busy students hurrying about. Since it was Saturday, there would be extra quiet. Snow had melted, turning to water on the green grass, making it appear shinny and almost slimy.

My eyes closed as I listened to the last of the little birds, who were fleeing to their nests for the night. So caught up in the little sounds far away, I didn't even think to turn when foot steps followed their approach.

[Nate Johnston]

One of those early mornings where you just want to sleep and think of what your going to do this weekend but others are up and all ready for training though you see most of the people moping around which is quite... sad I guess the word is for it.

I had decided to wear my dark blue jeans and a black singlet you know just the usual as it did take a lot for me to get cold though it was barely even chilly. But people are different to me some Dhampirs are were tracksuit pants and hoods others are wearing shorts and singlets and well... the Dhampir girls were one things I couldn't help but perv on.

My hands were in the pockets of my jeans as I slowly let my feet drag through the grass, frowning to myself at the quietness, yes it usually is quiet but not this quiet and not to mention I am really hungry, my stomach was about to growl o I need to keep my mind off food which isn't started until an hour. I could not be bothered to even attempt at running.

I looked around at the very few students who were out at this time, a yawn that was in my throat suddenly came out and few tears left behind it rubbing my eyes I tilted my head back and breathed in the new air slowly inhaling and exhaling before I opened my eyes and took back in my surrounds, the benches, the trees, Ethan.. wait.

My thoughts stopped as I said Ethan and a smirked was on my lips and I made my way over slowly, seeing him I had to hold back a chuckle as he was just staring and I could hear the birds so no doubt knowing him he was listening to them and I cleared my throat. "Good morning Ethan." I leaned against the tree as I looked down at him.

LIFE... WELL, IT'S FULL OF HAUNTING SURPRISES.

There is always the possibility of being caught by surprise. Dhmapirs were taught to be stealthy and almost ninja like. What I shoulder always suspect is that my own team mates would pull that on me. Only he was careless of me hearing those foot steps, each one landing in the soft green grass beneath his feet. The wind blowing his scent across the courtyard.

As a smile came to my lips, I stiffed a laugh. Nate was one among the few who knew I was out here. He was probably just surprised I was by myself, considering Ivanka is usually sitting next to me. My eyes opening and looking up into the trees, the glow of the sunset lighting up the woods, casting them in shadow. The most beautiful site in the vampiric day, just before 'morning'. Most say 'let me sign', leaving their mark on the world through works. Yet, they still don't understand, not through works, but through courage and believing.

Compulsion was beginning to become more popular. Even the administration is worried. That was nothing for me though, I just had to make sure I never made eye contact to many Moroi at this school.

"Good morning Ethan."

Finally, the welcoming words of the morning. Or should I say night? I began to yawn, shaking my head and turned my head to view him. I laughed, "Your going to be freezing in that man." I replied dismissing it with a wave of my hand. My chest rising then descending with the deep breath I took, watching the last of the sun dissipate behind the horizon.

We could no longer go home, matter of fact. Well, that was my problem. My smiling disappearing at just the mere thought of it. Just waiting for that light at the end of the tunnel. Graduation was coming up fast. Getting out of this place was my goal, but would it all be worth it. Protecting Ivanka is what I choose to do, risk my life in order for her to be safe. Sometimes I wish she was a Spirit user. If anything had happened to me, she'd be able to heal.

A frown creased my face as a sigh escaped my lips. My arms rubbing my legs slightly to create heat. Absentmindedly, my hands reached up to my cheek, the one with that bloody scar. Most of the girls thought it was manly, but I knew what it meant. That was how close I came to Strigoi attacking me. I almost didn't survive. One of the few freshman groups to survive the attack.

Yanking my hand down I stood up quickly, clenching and unclenching my fists, allowing my anger to dissipate. Closing my eyes I took deep breaths, turning to see Nate leaning against the tree. I forced a smile. "Good morning to you too." I replied chuckling a bit.

[Nate Johnston]

Millions of questions and thoughts were running through my head, always whispering but me to never understand though he Dhampir way is the only way we can go and plus I defiantly don't want to be a drop out, protecting the moron is one thing I swore my life on doing and well why would I even consider leaving?

My eyes ran around the area I was standing in and yes I was surprised Ivanka wasn't here, she so wants ethan and it isn't hrs to see but all she will do is deny it but hey that's just the way it is. Chuckling under my breath as I looked at Ethan, he was a weird one but that is why he is my friend I suppose.

Your going to be freezing in that man.

Not being able to help myself at laugh at that, yes no doubt I would but here is always being able to go back into my room and grabbing my jacket. Shaking my head I smirked, "Well atleast I'm not the one listening to the animal sounds or whatever you are doing." I laughed once more.

A yawn escaped my lips once more as I looked over at the sun setting even I had to admit it did look amazing but come on oh won't ever hear me saying that ever. My eyes averted to the trees and then the grass and I shook my head before glancing back at Ethan.

Good morning to you too.

I went and sat down next to him and smirked. "Well technically afternoon maybe even night." running my hand through my hair and I ruffled it slightly before sighing and smirking my sly smirk which everyone loved. The question that I had been wanting to ask finally came from my lips. "Where's Ivanka?" because it is true you barely seem them apart well I barely see them apart.

[Ethan Wate]

LIFE... WELL, IT'S FULL OF HAUNTING SURPRISES.

The road of life was never a clear one. One way lead toward one part, and the other to a part you still don't understand. Part of that choice would be love. Who would you be willing to spend the rest of your life with? A true friend, or some stranger you just met one day. Ivanka. Ivanka Udinov. Sure I had feelings for her, that didn't mean I wanted to marry her. People keep telling me how cute we are, we both have to assure them that there is nothing going on between us, only to have them rolling their eyes and muttering 'whatever'.

It was a mess, we both knew people where going to spread rumors about us being evolved. She was an Earth user, she could pull of love. But to love a guardian like me? She couldn't, shouldn't, she had to marry and fall in love with another Moroi and start a family. I could never give her that. I would put my life on the line for her, that was the most I could offer. I couldn't think about her that way, having sex with her would not be good, no matter how great it would feel.

"Well at least I'm not the one listening to the animal sounds or whatever you are doing."

Pushing aside those thoughts for Iva aside, I glared at him, chuckling a bit. I sighed, leaning back against the stone bench. "You know it's where I find peace Nate. Don't judge me." I teased. "At least I'm not the kind that likes to go breaking hearts." I joked. Nate did go through a lot of relationships, more than me actually I have to admit. He was the type to go around and date everyone before school was out. I swear he probably dated almost every girl here.

"Where's Ivanka?"

There it was, her name. My heart lurched at the sound of it. Where was she? She was always with me at this time of day. That's probably what started the rumors. Reluctantly, I shrugged my shoulders, crossing my arms over my chest. "I don't know, maybe she's busy." I hadn't realized it, but a sort of jealousy was in my tone. I quickly regain myself, sitting forward. "Is it really that obvious?" I asked, glancing at Nate once before back out at the disappearing sun.

[Nate Johnston]

Love... to me that is the worst word there is, there is 'caring' also 'liking' but the one word 'Love' that scares the hell out of me. I don't see the point in it, but why should I? I can have any girl I want which is true and everyone knows it, but none have made me 'love' them all they are is a bit of fun and well they always come back, but the real question is what is love? is it just a word? is it an actual real thing? or is it nothing? well to me, it never exists.

In a way I felt bad for Ethan and Ivanka I know how they feel about each other but they won't act on those feelings which is quite funny but sad at the same time. Seeing the way they look at each other, the way they both respond. Yeah hes her guardian but to me I wish they will hurry up and have sex already, get rid of the tension they both have for one another but ya know... they pretend like what they feel is nothing.

"You know it's where I find peace Nate. Don't judge me."

I laughed once more Ethan always amuses me with his strange habits. "Sorry Ethan but come on, you look stupid by yourself, so I came and gave you company making it look like you weren't day dreaming about Ivanka naked." he joked, well he hoped he wasn't anyway or this would be a tad bit awkward.

"At least I'm not the kind that likes to go breaking hearts."

That smirk of mine came back onto my lips and I couldn't help but just wink at him, it isn't my fault I break their hearts. "It's not like I mean it, they fall too hard too fast and I only think of them as a play around." I nodded my head in a matter of fact tone, Which was true, he had never met a girl who had not said 'I love you' in more then a week or two and then I'm out of there before they get TOO attached, like psychopathic stalkerish attached.

"I don't know, maybe she's busy."

I raised my eyebrow at the mention of that and then burst out laughing until I was in near tears. "Her too busy for you.... hahahahaha, mate she would cancel anything to be with you though we need more boy time without her clinging onto you like a fish with a hook through their mouth." Shaking my head in, i studied him and I heard that jealousy in his voice and the smirk passed on my lips again, I would hate to see what he is like if another guy started liking Ivanka, it would be hell on earth.

"Is it really that obvious?"

Another sighed passed my lips and I nodded slightly. "Just a tiny bit Ethan... just the way you two act around each other, I feel like saying 'Just root already!' but hey I'm your best mate I would rather say that without having a whole audience full of people." Biting down on my lower lip, looking back out to the sun aswell.

[Ethan Wate]

LIFE... WELL, IT'S FULL OF HAUNTING SURPRISES.

Life was ticking away... It always felt as if it was slipping away, falling through my fingers, dripping onto the floor. Creating puddle on the ground, only to be swallowed up by the ground beneath your feet. Ivanka was no Spirit user, but she did tend to heal me somehow. Could just be the way she makes me feel, refreshed, renewed, alive. Sometimes I would catch myself staring, but she never noticed. Maybe she didn't feel the same way about me. I was probably a brother to her.

Minds tend to wander, but mine does it constantly. Always straying off the topic I am currently on. Right now, I couldn't stop myself from thinking about her. The way that blonde hair framed her face, those breathtaking blue eyes. They've always lend me to my end, hypothetical that is. She just wasn't someone you could stop thinking about cold turkey. I never cared what she thought about me, as long as it was toward deciding whether or not she liked me. I was, after-all, her guardian.

"Sorry Ethan but come on, you look stupid by yourself, so I came and gave you company making it look like you weren't day dreaming about Ivanka naked."

Sometimes things just get to your mind, and you don't realize, it till after, that you've blushed. Rubbing my cheeks, I shoved him hard. "And so what if I am?" I retorted, regretting it the moment that sentence was out of my mouth. I was mortified, turning to looked at the trees above me, shaking my head. "I wasn't, um, thinking that." I answered, hoping that didn't lead to being teased.

"It's not like I mean it, they fall too hard too fast and I only think of them as a play around."

Rolling my eyes. Typical of him to answer. I never understood how guys could play with girls like that. "Your just not ready to be dedicated to spending your life with them are you?" I raised a brow, chuckling a bit, moving to stand up, leaning against the tree, stretching out my legs.

No, I wasn't even ready. How could love be so difficult. Always taunting you with glimpses of her face in your head, the way your heart pounds when hearing her name, nearly stopping every time you see her, or she talks to you. Your breath caught in your throat as you stare at the beauty upon her face, everything in the world disappearing as it's just you two standing there. As I said before, time slipping through your fingers, unable to stop it.

"Her too busy for you.... hahahahaha, mate she would cancel anything to be with you though we need more boy time without her clinging onto you like a fish with a hook through their mouth."

Having a snappy retorted on my lips, I stopped, knowing he was right. Damn it, I hate when he's right. She would cancel anything, but today? She probably had more important things to do. Oh how that angered me. I wasn't the jealous type, or even the control freak type, I just had small bursts of anger that would shoot through me. Anger toward myself, not her. She was probably hanging out with some other guy, flirting, someone Moroi. Someone who could guarantee a family she needs. Unlike me, the one who can't reproduce worth a shit. I blamed genetics.

"Just a tiny bit Ethan... just the way you two act around each other, I feel like saying 'Just root already!' but hey I'm your best mate I would rather say that without having a whole audience full of people."

"'Just root already'? What's that suppose to mean Johnston? Just lay her down and give it to her, is that what your applying?" I glared, not realizing that I was standing facing him from the side of the bench, my hands in fists. I blinked, relaxing a bit as I sighed, taking a deep breath. "I'm sorry. I probably shouldn't yell at you." I muttered through clenched teeth. I hated this anger control thing. Visiting a counselor wasn't helping one bit.

[Nate Johnston]

Family.. that one word where Loyalty and Pride is well known, it scares me I will say that, thinking I was going to let down my mum, the one true person who loves me, but in all of that.. why do we all think that because of family we love them? come on in reality, you have your days of hate your days of love but can you truly say you hate your family? no matter what they did or what they say? do you really?

Darya...the one person I am sworn to protect, and man am I protective. One of the very Moroi that so many people want to take advantage of but she is lucky she has me. Staring at the sun my mind blanked out as I thought her name and I too wondered where she was, though knowing her she is probably getting all prettied up which she looks really good when she does.. her and Ivanka are probably the two people I have never played around with, and thank god for that I'm pretty sure that Ethan would rip my head from my shoulder and have a feed on it if I hurt Ivanka, which still makes me laugh at the thought of it like come on... it's Ivanka.

"And so what if I am?"

I snapped back from my little daze and looked at him just as he said them words and I saw him blush and I started laughing again, I didn't mean to be mean or anything I just thought it was funny as hell. And I made a bit of a face at trying to PICTURE Ivanka naked but it didn't turn out to well and I shuddered and smirked more when he shoved me. "Now to imagine them naked Ethan you got to be in private or that's just too weird." he joked and smirked at his best friend.

"Your just not ready to be dedicated to spending your life with them are you?"

I stopped and thought about that, biting down on my lip as I continued to think, of course I wanted to spend my life with someone, but at this moment I just couldn't, shaking off those thoughts I shook my head and my cocky grin was back on my face "Oh come on, why tie myself down to one girl when I can have many? anyway my main priority is Darya so... tieing myself down to a girl and protecting Darya will be one thing I would like not to do." I nodded in a matter of fact way.

Sometimes I wish that I wasn't right about most things, like Ivanka and Ethan, my god sometimes they make me sick the way they look at each other and talk to each other, I would puke if I saw into their minds and that's a fact. We all see what's going on between them but why do people have to get into their buisness? like me I can cause I'm the best mate and well Ivanka... shes alright sometimes but can get annoying but hey to me what girl isn't annoying? most of them are and thats why I don't feel like tieing myself down to anyone except Darya and to protect her, that is my main priority, They come first.

A pit came in my stomach as it growled again and I groaned a bit when will this hour ever fly by!? I'm hungry and well no doubt Ivanka and Darya will be in the breakfast hall, and that will HOPEFULLY take Ethan's mind of Darya just for one tiny second and let him have a normal conversation with me without her being brought up atleast once, lately it's happening a lot and to me that means he is falling harder... I'm trying to save him from hurt but I think he has fallen too hard.

"'Just root already'? What's that suppose to mean Johnston? Just lay her down and give it to her, is that what your applying?"

I heard the anger in his voice and I sighed, knowing about his anger issues but what pissed me off is when they were aimed at me, so I kept my mouth shout and tried to let him calm down. "Well actually no I'm not implying lay her down and give it to her, that is very... unrealistic, what you and Ivanka have between each other is not only you guys 'liking' each other but also animal passion which involves good sex and it will get rid of the tension.. you might not see it from my point of view but ah well." Rolling my eyes slightly at him I moved so I was sitting on the bench instead of on the ground.

"I'm sorry. I probably shouldn't yell at you."

I shrugged at him, "Yell at me or not I don't care, I'm telling you what my thought is about all this. Sighing once more I kept my eyes from him, he is more angry whenever we bring up Ivanka, I think I should stop doing it though it was a question he gets pissed off for no reason, and I'm not the kind of person to let someone have a go at me and not expect me to yell back, so for once I kept my mouth shut. I would rather fight with Darya then fight with Ethan though as I thought, we have been doing it more often.

[Ethan Wate]

LIFE... WELL, IT'S FULL OF HAUNTING SURPRISES.

Friends, they were always there for you, helping you through everything. No mater how many fights you got into with them, they were always there for you. Nate Johnston was my best friend. We've been friends for as long as I can remember. Could he be an asshole sometimes, yes of coarse, but that was how we've became friends. I never cared if he dated girls, making them fall in love once they met his eyes. To be honest, I used him as a role model. Learning off his mistakes, as well as letting him give me some pointers. He was the ladies man. I tried to fall in love with just on girl, keeping her longer than a week. Right now, my emotions, eyes, and love were for Iva. Like I've said, he's the heart breaker, I'm the nice guy, but everyone loves him still.

In a way, being Dhampir gave you advantages. Having sex without having to worry about getting them pregnant. Well, if you were a male Dhampir that is. Other than that, everyone else could either get pregnant, or cause someone to get pregnant. I really didn't want to know about Nate's sex life, hell mine wasn't very good. I decided not to think about it, only causing my mind to wander over to Iva. I knew we needed more guy time to talk, but right now, right when I just wake up, I always think about her, her looks running through my head, causing me to look like a fool whenever someone catches me thinking about her, that dumbstruck look on my face.

Now Darya. She was good for Nate, gave him some responsibility, I only wondered if she ever tried to have a fling with him, and he just doesn't want to talk about it. My lips twitched up into a grin as I thought of a girl playing hard to get. Causing him to feel embarrassed about it enough to actually keep his mouth shut. I stopped myself from laughing, sighing a bit as I watched the last of the sun disappear, just as the Academy's lights came on to give it that view of daylight. I cringed at the light a bit, frowning, letting my eyes adjust.

"Now to imagine them naked Ethan you got to be in private or that's just too weird."

I just shot him a look. "I wasn't thinking about her naked. Just... her face." I answered back, taking the seat next to him. I leaned back, taking a deep breath as I stared down at the ground. I didn't care what he though about my thoughts. He could think all he wanted, I just shook my head. Looking at him once before biting my lip, sitting up, running a hand through my hair as I frowned, narrowing my eyes. What would she look like naked?

"Oh come on, why tie myself down to one girl when I can have many? anyway my main priority is Darya so... tieing myself down to a girl and protecting Darya will be one thing I would like not to do."

I scolded myself for thinking of Ivanka that way, mentally slapping my face as I looked at him, frown still upon my lips. "Guess your right. But has she ever tried to hit on you?" I laughed a bit. "Your such the ladies man, I'd think she'd try to play around with you, no?" I glanced at him a bit, a smirk on my lips as I thought of that, the way he's suppose to protect her, but she tries playing hard to get. What I wouldn't give to see him deny someone like her. The party type. She could get him into any party if he just asked. I still didn't understand, how could a girl with her history still turn out that way? Most were quiet and shy, but her, nope partying type, probably drinking HOPING to remove though horrible memories. I didn't blame her.

Hearing his stomach growl caused mine to do the same, I laughed aloud How much longer did we have before he could shut his stomach up. It was true, being a Dhampir you had to eat a lot of food, just like the werewolves in that book series everyone talks about. Sighing loudly, I glanced at the Academy's clock, seeing how we had about ten minutes left. Had time really go by that fast? My life was slipping through the cracks. I needed to live it while I still could.

"Well actually no I'm not implying lay her down and give it to her, that is very... unrealistic, what you and Ivanka have between each other is not only you guys 'liking' each other but also animal passion which involves good sex and it will get rid of the tension.. you might not see it from my point of view but ah well."

Seeing him roll his eyes, I sighed, shaking my head. "I do get your point, Nate, but what am I suppose to do? Make the first move, or let her? Should I risk her hating me for it later, or let her choice the best time to have sex?" I asked, generally curious about what he had to say. I needed this, in a way I'm glad Ivanka didn't follow me. Nate and I really needed more of these talks, but talk more about other things than girls. Ivanka.

Really? Where had my anger gone? I use it during class when we are fighting against other students, but also against Strigoi. I didn't want to use it against my best friend. He was good to me, a friend anyone could wish for. I hated not being able to control my anger as well as I liked. I don't even know where it had come from, maybe it was passed down by my father. I know my mother never had anger... or did she? I never even wanted to think about it, for fear I might get even more pissed. She left me, that was that.

I licked my lips, cracking my neck as I glanced at the clock again. "Breakfast starts in about five, maybe ten minutes, want to start heading over there? Your stomach seems to think so." I laughed a bit, standing up.

Muse: Great!
Notes: Should we include Melly? Or just have it where it's still just them even while they are eating?

[Nate Johnston]

Life.. We all have one, but some treat their lives differently to others. Some wish they had a different life, others are glad they have their own lifes but honestly. What is a good life? is it where you can have everything you want? is it where you are happy? or is it when you are treated differently to everybody else in the world? most of us are unique, but some are as bad as everybody else. There is no normal, no matter how hard we wish it isn't true, nobody ever will be normal. Can you define what normal is? or at least give me the meaning.

Now sex or in other words lust. That is what my life is all about, other then protecting Darya. I'm one of those people who only has a mind for my dick in one area, but what guy doesn't? other then people that are virgins, which i love deflowering them. But anyway, Love and lust are two completely different things, how would I know when I love someone or if I ever will love someone for lust? The only time I'm not thinking of lust is when I'm on duty or when I'm with Ethan though I still perv on girls. But hey you can't take that from me, but Ethan.. I still feel weird asking him if he has EVER had sex so I can hook him up, just to at least give him the experience I have with these girls and how.. wild they can get if you know what I mean.

Anyway back onto Ethan, Ivanka and Darya. We are all good friends, but Ethan and Ivanka like each other, and I mean a lot they just won't admit it. Me and Darya... I don't know what we have, if it's friendship, lust, 'love. Or if it's family, I will never know nor do I really wanna find out but then again it would be good to find out about it too. I have a lot of experience in lust but not in love and I'm thinking Ethan knows a fair bit about 'love' or 'liking'. I have never experienced either.

"I wasn't thinking about her naked. Just... her face."

Hearing that I stopped myself from laughing, what guy hasn't tried thinking of her naked? Apart from me but that was just too weird, I would never think of going there one because Ethan is in love with her and two that's just weird. "I bet you have thought about it before though." I said in a matter of fact tone, every guy has their fantasies and I would love to live in Ethan's head just once, to see what he says and feels like when he is near Ivanka but that is impossible unless you are shadow kissed, which I'm so sure I'm not.

"Guess your right. But has she ever tried to hit on you?"

I didn't laugh at that and I tried to think, has she ever hit on me? if she has I defiantly have not noticed and a slight frowned ceased on my forehead as I continued thinking. Shaking my head as i looked at my best mate. "No I'm pretty sure she has not, unless I was blind then no." he bit on her lip, what kind of girl didn't hit on me! this is absurd, but then again it is Darya.

"Your such the ladies man, I'd think she'd try to play around with you, no?"

How did this conversation get from Ivanka to Darya? I wondered to myself and I shook my head, "As I said if she did I have not noticed, though it would be interesting to see, never thought she would even try and a girl playing hard to get with me will be a goddess. No-one can make me chase after someone else." Smirking at the thought of someone trying to play hard to get with me, dude they give in too easily.

I heard Ethan's stomach growl and I merely chuckled, looks like I wasn't the only one that was hungry, but my god this was taking forever and I could eat a bear right now I would not care as long as I got some food into my stomach which obviously wasn't happening for another what? I looked at the clock and smiled 10 minutes! thats more close then I thought, well at leasy I know I'll be eating soon.

"I do get your point, Nate, but what am I suppose to do? Make the first move, or let her? Should I risk her hating me for it later, or let her choice the best time to have sex?"

The questions that can only be answered between Ethan and Ivanka, the sex talk doesn't come weird to me but I don't know about Ethan, but nonetheless I had to say something. "Well, If you don't want her hating you which I cannot see at all, I suggest you find out how she feels about you, though it is not hard to figure out that she is head over heels for you. And well wait it out, see if she will, if she won't then she doesn't want to ruin anything between you two and wants to wait it out, which to me is a total downer. Oh and by the way, I have been wanting to know this for so long. Are you a virgin?" finally the unspoken question came from my lips and I looked at him.

I looked at my best friend and I couldn't help but think, why can't I help him or make him less angry, the only person who would be able to do that would be Ivanka, and well all I have to do is wait because sooner or later they will talk about their feelings and I'm hoping its sooner more then later. Why is love so difficult!? I wondered to myself.

At the sound of Ethan cracking his neck, I cracked my neck too and licked my lips at the sound of food, "Well my hunger does get the best of me and I am all for having some food to snack on." I nodded and smiled, getting up from my seat and I helped Ethan up, of course my stomach gave me away but he does know me well and knows I get hungry quite easily which I really hate. "I wonder if Ivanka and Darya will be there? though they should we are their guardians.." I liked the way that sounded, 'guardians' smiling to myself I started walking to the hall.

LIFE... WELL, IT'S FULL OF HAUNTING SURPRISES.

Emotions, sometimes they're just off the wall, while others try to hide them, but don't we all? Some consist of love and lust, which just so happens to be Nate's life style. I don't blame him, it's high school, Senior year at that. He is doing good living his life while he can before he has to protect another life, not allowing himself any pleasure, unless she is involved in it. Sometimes that lust oges for a little too far with some people. They begin to go overboard, ending up upseting the other, or possibilty killed with love. We weren't supose to readlly love anyone other than our Moroi. which is why most choose the oppisite sex to get guarded by. Some decided to be guarded by a friend of the same sex, because of their close friendship.

Moroi had it easy, besides for worrying about Strigoi who want to kill them. That's what we were used for, protecting them. The thing I liked about Darya, was that she wanted to fight back. Being a fire user, she has it easy to defeat them. don't get me wrong, other elements could kill them too, heck! even Sipirt could cure them, bringing them back to what they were before. I wish my I could bring back Darya's parents. They were killed by Strigoi, possibibly being turned theirselves. I felt bad for Darya, but having someone like Nate Johnston could bring her moral back up, letting her know friends are always there, no matter how detatched she is from memories.

My opition, I think Darya and Nate should get together, maybe date. It'd be easier for him to guard her, he'd always be around her, protecting her, as well as loving her more than just to the point of having to protect her. Maybe she did have feelings for him, I would never know unless I asked. I had to stop a laugh from forming at how she'd even be able to get him to fall for her. It seemed to work for him to have girls fall for him, not the other way around. Who knows, maybe they'll try out dating each other for a bit.

I rolled my eyes. "Actually, to be honest, I have. I'm still not sure if it would look like the real thing." I shrugged my shoulder, laughing at my words. Sure I wish I could see it for myself. Actually see her naked. I quickly pushed that thought from my mind, trying to remind myself that my best friend was sitting right next to me. I sighed, hearing the bell for breakfast sound. I smiled, taking Nate's hand as he helped me up.

"No I'm pretty sure she has not, unless I was blind then no. -- As I said if she did I have not noticed, though it would be interesting to see, never thought she would even try and a girl playing hard to get with me will be a goddess. No-one can make me chase after someone else."

I laughed aloud at that, shaking my head, by hair flopping in my face. "Dude, I won't even be surprised if you two hooked up at least once before graduation. But, of coarse you like'em easy, not hard to get." I laughed again, joking around as I started to walk with him to the commons.

"Are you a virgin?"

I nodded, listening to his advice about maybe waiting. Then I cocked my head to the side, wondering what would happen if I didn't, and kissed her tomorrow- I stopped thinking, turning my head sharply to look at him. I just stared, narrowing my eye, making a face. "And so what if I am?" I said, blushing a bit. Damn it. Only girls blushed, I shook my head.

"I wonder if Ivanka and Darya will be there? though they should we are their guardians.."

I liked the sound of that too. I smiled a bit, thinking about guarding her, and maybe even being able to hang out with Nate after graduation. I continued walking to the commons, still smiling like a goof. "Yea, they probably will. Darya will be with her for sure." I answered.

Dreams.. we all have one, most people being fortunate and having loads and loads of money, a good paying job, a husband or wife with kids, some just being happy and that there is no war. But no dreams come true unless you believe in yourself. My dream? going to be honest with you, my dream is to become one of the best guardians of the century.. Maybe even fall 'in love' with someone, who knows but my main priority is to be the best guardian in all the land. The stronger you are the more chance you have at succeeding. Don't give up, and don't break down sooner then it seems life turns around.

The Moroi.. Oh how much so many people loath them, I don't see why because they have it easy? yeah of course they do, look at how they live. How we have to throw our lives away for them, protect them and die for them but that's why They come first will always be printed in all Dhampirs hearts, no matter how bad or how hard it is They come first is our priority. Oh and also repopulating our world, but the idea of repopulating makes me shudder at the thought of kids. I hate them honestly they annoy me to much but I still put up with them. Ivanka, she is a nice sweet girl and I like her she is good to talk to but, she needs to be stronger.. To me she is one of those Moroi who hide behind their guardians. Though I'm used to seeing that happen, but because I'm assigned to Darya she is a fighter and well.. I like me some fighter.

Darya... that one word that makes me tense up, thinking she was getting hurt maybe even endangered, that's why I need her by my side 24/7 or i worry about her, some day it's because your her guardian and you need to protect her. Others say it's because you have feelings for her, but either way I will never know why I act that way, my only thoughts are to keep her safe. Yeah we are at the academy but there have been attacks before and you can't trust places which are to be safe but really they never are.

"Actually, to be honest, I have. I'm still not sure if it would look like the real thing."

That cocky smile was on my lips again, I just knew it he can't lie to me he never has been able to, clearing my throat i punched him gently on the arm. "Well live out that fantasy! though it's weird thinking that while I'm talking to you your probably imagining me as Ivanka naked, now this will get awkward.." his voice trailed off and then a shiver passed through his body. I think I just grossed myself out, making a gagging noise I shook my head.

"Dude, I won't even be surprised if you two hooked up at least once before graduation. But, of coarse you like 'em easy, not hard to get."

Biting my lip as I thought about me and Darya, well I call her D. Frowning a bit at the thought as I tried to picture it, I got a bit of a view but I was not to sure. "Well It would be a good experience if we do then won't it, though I can't see it happening and I'm pretty sure neither can she." I mumbled and frowned before shaking off the thought, no she wouldn't and plus It would be too awkward if I asked her anyway.

"And so what if I am?"

The question he finally answered and the answer to it made me laugh so hard that I was in tears, finally able to catch my breath wiping away the tears I smirked at him. "And you never told me that! you know could of hooked you up with sooo many hot feisty ready for anything Moroi girls!" the shock was slowly starting to wear off though I had a tiny feeling he was a virgin but it wasn't big.. man has he even kissed a girl? but I'll ask him about THAT one later.

"Yea, they probably will. Darya will be with her for sure."

I smiled a bit at the mention of D's name and chuckled. Atleast I know Ivanka and D will be together a lot so that means me and Ethan will and I won't be letting this subject drop anytime soon. "Well good then." I spoke as we were just about to near The Commons entrance, and you could smell the breakfast; Pancakes with maple syrup and ice cream with chopped up strawberries, normal cereal, toast, juice anything you could think of was here and it felt like heaven to most.

LIFE... WELL, IT'S FULL OF HAUNTING SURPRISES.

Happiness. We could either make our self happy, or miserable, the amount of work was the same. Why did it have to be so hard to decide? Why did life have to be so difficult. Or rather, why did love have to be so difficult? Nothing was ever easy in life. Life was never fair either, that much was true. In my mind, my own little world, I made all the rules, making it so anything could happen, love happened all the time, whether between two people, or multiple times a day. My love would always be for her. Nothing could stop me from thinking about her... well, except for food that is.

My stomach growled again as my nose caught a wiff of pancakes and butter. I laughed in spite of myself. Sometimes my heart, and stomach worked on different ends of emotions. One wanted something that disappears after an hour, and the other thought about the one that would be there forever, until we both died away. I couldn't bring myself to think of her being dead. She seemed to sweet, so innocent. I envied Nate. He threw love around a lot. It came so easy to him. Why did it have to be hard for me, but easy for my best friend? Then again, he did live differently. He was a heart breaker, one known for not keeping a relationship for very long. He didn't care, I did. He lived life to the fullest, I didn't.

Being Ivanka's guardian would be interesting if I were her lover as well. It would make guarding her easier, and I wouldn't be jealous of the one she was dating. Then again, if it didn't work out between us, which I doubt it would, I'd be the one standing there, watching as she threw herself all over the guy she met. I shoved the image from my mind, not wanting to think about such a thing, for fear I would have to relive that memory. Which is something I refer not to do, considering the fact that I was already having a hard time with it. I seriously needed more guy time. Nate and I needed to be talking about fighting Strigoi, or maybe even getting a group of guys together to play a game of soccer or something. Anything other than girls. Ivanka.

"Well live out that fantasy! though it's weird thinking that while I'm talking to you your probably imagining me as Ivanka naked, now this will get awkward.."

I winced, cringing at the idea. "Dude, now that's going WAY to far. She so much hotter than you." I added, laughing. I shook my head, smiling a bit. It was times like this when I knew pushing her from my mind would be a good thing. Hell I didn't even want to imagine him naked, for fear of having nightmares. I shivered and pushed it from my mind, returning my mind from the land of thoughts to how close we were to the mess hall.

I could hear him mumble something, but just shook my head. "You never know, she could be drawn to you, just like I am." I grinned, chuckling a bit as I batted my eyes and continued walking, feeling my mood lift at just having this conversation. Well, that is, until he just had to go and pissed me off.

"And you never told me that! you know could of hooked you up with sooo many hot feisty ready for anything Moroi girls!"

I punched him, hard, hoping it would hurt. "Now don't you dare go around telling people that I haven't even had sex yet Johnston! Or you'll be the one wishing for love without such a pretty face, and that's a promise." I glared a bit, a smirk coming to my lips as I thought about that, how he would beg for love once his face wasn't so pretty. I laughed in spite of my threat, know he probably wouldn't take it seriously. "And that, right there, just ruined my mood dude." I warned, seeing the doors to the hall.

"Yea, they probably will. Darya will be with her for sure."

I raised a brow. "Huh, is there a little hit of desperate tone in that sentence? Or did I just imagine it?" I looked at him, eye brow arched and raised, smiling a bit, chuckling. When we did see Darya though, I knew we'd see Ivanka as well. I smiled to myself, thinking about her once last time before I could see her for real today, and stop day dreaming about her ass.

Sadness.. we all have it at least once in our life and to some it hits hard but to others it doesn't. Like me it takes ages to make me sad and nobody has ever seen me cry though I'm not excited for anyone to even think of seeing me cry, because that would just be weird and usually people freak out when a guy like me starts crying. Though I have felt it before, when I'm alone and I think about things, yes I'm like Ethan but I don't express it like he does, Me I put on a face and I'm always happy and cheerful, usually it's easier when I;m with Ethan and D but other then that it's usually a mask, but one day I hope I can express myself to someone, but as I said one day doesn't mean I want everyone in the school to know I'm actually soft hearted when I want to be.

My stomach growled again when I heard Ethan's and I groaned, thinking to myself 'Nearly there and you can stuff your face and still look hot doing it.' I'm not up myself, I just know that most people like the way I look so I like to flaunt it, but back onto Ethan, Ivanka and D. Ethan, he needs to let loose for once in his life and have fun, but being love struck by Ivanka, doesn't help.. I'm thinking I should take Ethan out some time when we can leave the academy for a day and just me and him go chat up some girls, that sounds good or just play around who knows just anything to keep him away from Ivanka for a day. Though I can not wait for the day when they both finally get over themselves and admit their feelings so they can hurry up and stop being all sooky when they aren't near each other, when that happens to me it will feel like Christmas came early. But everyone different, maybe I need to have a chat with Ivanka..

Some day I envy Ethan, I wish I was more like him, actually able to stick with someone for more then a couple of days like he has liked Ivanka for a long time now, I wish I had that, being able to do it would be a good experience, though I can't see myself going anywhere, all I can see is my protecting Darya with my heart and soul, I would die for her, throw myself in front of a bullet if I had to, though I have always wanted a Moroi girl to drink from me... just be weird with every other girl but her.. Hm.. might have a conversation with her about this, though it would be a very awkward and weird conversation to be brought up but hey we only live once got to try new things right? though this sky rockets off the weirdness chart, and I never know she might say yes and apparently Moroi bites are amazing, a sigh passed my lips as I thought about this, shaking my head to get those thoughts away for now, we are near Ivanka and D and I could feel it, my guardian senses tingled a bit and that's how I knew.

"Dude, now that's going WAY to far. She so much hotter than you."

I laughed out loud at hearing him say that, yeah that was going a bit to far but I spoke what I thought and he is used to me doing that by now, I hope. "Yeah maybe a tiny bit and bull shit, nothing can be hotter then me and you know it, including you want me." I joked, well more like I hoped he didn't this would be you know... just a tiny bit more awkward.

"You never know, she could be drawn to you, just like I am."

Shaking my head at my best friend, "Dude come on, don't say your drawn to me, liking Ivanka fair enough you have every reason to, but admitting to me your gay? that's crossing our friendship line right there." I smirked so much more, though I was kidding around he says what I said was too far? what he just said was WAY to far to what I said, is he trying to creep me out and start running the other direction thinking he is going to pull his dick out and chase me with it? Shaking that disturbing thought out of my head.

Just as I turned my head to look at him, I felt his fist collide with my face, I staggered a bit but not a lot and I looked at him, rubbing where he hit me. I was on all kinds of levels but man, I wanted to smack him the fuck out, but not wanting to get expelled as I have already been threaten to for getting into fist fights with Dhampirs I controlled it.

"Now don't you dare go around telling people that I haven't even had sex yet Johnston! Or you'll be the one wishing for love without such a pretty face, and that's a promise."

I started to feel a bit furious, "You actually think I would tell everyone my best mate has never had sex before? your fucked in the head if you think that... And no matter how many times you hit me my face will always be pretty and you know it." I said and walked a bit more further ahead of him, but slowed down as we reached the inside, my fists were clenched and shaking a bit, whenever someone hits me I immediately black out and start swinging but that's my mate so I have to control myself. Taking in deep breaths.

"Huh, is there a little hit of desperate tone in that sentence? Or did I just imagine it?"

Shaking my head at him, "Your imagination is running wild if you think that was desperate tone, I'm never desperate and plus come on its D." shaking my head at him again, biting on my lip though I did want to see her after not seeing her on the weekend because I went away with my mum for the weekend because we wouldn't be allow to see family for quite awhile after it.

LIFE... WELL, IT'S FULL OF HAUNTING SURPRISES.

Sometimes, there were times when my best friend could irritate me so badly that I would lose my temper. I hated it. I did it more often lately, but why? Were my anger issues getting worse? After all my dad was unknown to me, and my mom left me to become a blood whore. I mean, come on, what kind of parents do that? I envied those who had good lives, then always thought 'there is someone out there that is worse off.' It was just something that always ran through my head at times. It was good to keep in mind when your feeling down and think 'like sucks'. Sometimes I would think about just taking my anger out on something during practice, or even when everyone is busy and away from me. I could head into the gym and let it all out through a practice dummy. Yes, that would be quite fun.

Fighting Strigoi was something I'd been trained to do. I'd been trained to not hesitate, not to give up, and even more not to lose hope, always keep one step ahead of them. Don't let anything distract me. Something that would be so hard for me to do, they could do easily, that included killing. If I let my mind get distracted one second, that one second could cost my life, and maybe even Ivanka's life as well. I couldn't risk that. She'd gone through to much to be let into Strigoi hands. They would either chose to kill her, or awaken her. That was something I couldn't even think about. Someone as sweet and innocent as her, as a Strigoi? And without me being able to save her from that state? I would leave that to Nate to help her. He was the only one I could trust to get her out of that horrible state.

"Yeah maybe a tiny bit and bull shit, nothing can be hotter then me and you know it, including you want me."

I threw my head back, laughing. I loved Nate. We could always joke around about being gay and it wouldn't really be awkward at all. Then again, it CAN get PRETTY awkward. I tried to not talk about it as much anymore. Lately, it just seems more awkward by the second. I shook my head at the thought.

"Dude come on, don't say your drawn to me, liking Ivanka fair enough you have every reason to, but admitting to me your gay? that's crossing our friendship line right there."

I stopped walking stunned. I shook my head, continuing to walk. "Your right, that is crossing the friendship line. Good thing I'm not gay then huh?" I replied, glancing at him before realizing we were close to the hall, the doors a couple feet away, Moroi and Dhampirs piling in. I bit my lip, looking for Ivanka. Knowing her and Darya they would be in there already, getting our usual spot. Toward the back in the corner, away from prying eyes.

"You actually think I would tell everyone my best mate has never had sex before? your fucked in the head if you think that... And no matter how many times you hit me my face will always be pretty and you know it."

I gasped, looking at him. I only meant to hit his shoulder, not his face. I was kidding when I had threatened that. I didn't mean for him to stagger and have to hold back. I would have gladly taken the hit back from him if he didn't hold back. It was uncalled for. I knew he would never tell anyone. I watched as he walked ahead of me a bit, fists clenched. "Hey, Nate, dude. I'm sorry. I only meant to hit your shoulder. I was joking around." I bit my lip slightly, hoping all was good. I couldn't go and have my best friend hating me, not after all we've been through.

"Your imagination is running wild if you think that was desperate tone, I'm never desperate and plus come on its D."

I shrugged at that reply, wondering if he really had feelings for her. He was very good at keeping them hidden, that was for sure. "You never know." Was all I answered back when I walked through the doors, looking over to the spot, seeing her. Ivanka. My heart pounded in my chest as I walked with Nate to grab some food, before quickly packing my plate and turning to start walking over there.

"I'm telling you Ivanka. Ethan has feelings for you. You've got to express your own. Show him how you feel. It can't get any worse than him thinking your weird, which I'm pretty sure he won't, he loves you." Ivanka and I were on our way to the cafeteria. Breakfast was in about ten minutes. I sighed, seeing how love struck my friend was. She just didn't understand how much the god damned boy loved her. I'm sorry, but she was blind. She didn't quite get the fact that that boy was hopelessly in love with her, just waiting for some type of reason. Me? Well, I had my own troubles to worry about.

Nate Johnston. Great guy, very protective. He's my best friend, sometimes something even more. He kept his feelings hidden well, but around me, he slips. I can get under that thin wall of his facade. I could even get him to smile at times he tries his best to appear sexy or even serious. I think it's funny how I can get him to do anything for me. Nothing like compulsion, I would never ever think about using that on him. He was just like me in ways, and he always needed to be with me at all times, no matter how many times I beg him to just 'relax, it wasn't the real world just yet'. I never really wore party clothes to school. The heels would drive me crazy. Those skin and cleavage revealing clothes were reserved for making guys eyes pop, especially when they're drunk. All they can think about are your boobs.

Today was a Monday, the start of a new week. I frowned, knowing I had to survive one more week of this school. the teachers somewhat stunk, and the guardians here were very strict, but more so toward the Dhampirs. I played with the headphone charm on my necklace. It was something my babysitter gave me when she heard I liked loud music. She always thought that would remind me of her telling me to turn it down. I smiled at the memory. My choice of outfit today was something a little simple, but always showing my fashion trend. My skinny dark jeans put together with a shirt with an amazing design I fell in love with, along with a white scarf I choose when shopping last summer, my black beaded bracelets that I loved so much, my zebra printed shoes - something I picked out for the amazing design all zebras had, and knowing Nate would notice, he always did - and to top it all off, my black hat that gave my wavy hair a nice glow to it. This outfit was one of my many favorites, it showed my character.

Make-up wasn't really a bother to me. Sure I put it on, but that was so my face didn't look shity like it felt every morning after waking up from crying. No, I was not over my parents death, but I hid it till I was alone, always. My eyes were a sparkly grayish black, slight blush added to my cheeks, some lip gloss - none of the bright red shit most celebrities wear - a coat of mascara, and some eye liner. Nothing to goth. I only wore it to make my deep blue eyes stand out. I smiled a bit, and looked over at Ivanka, seeing as we were just about to the door. We were always ten minutes early, getting that same spot in the back corner, away from prying eyes.

I led Ivanka to the line, getting in line first before a group of girls, grinning and waving at them as they glared. I only rolled my eyes, pulling out a tray and sliding one over to her. "Might want to eat something, long day ahead of us." I told her, filling mine up with all the good stuff. I even got a little extra, knowing Nate would some. I grabbed a water and headed to our table, towing Ivanka behind me. I took our seats in the back, setting my food down. Even though we drank blood, we still needed to eat, considering we weren't Strigoi. I sat back, scanning the room for my man, and his best mate.

I searched for about five minutes before spotting them entering the doors, catching Ethan's eyes before I nodded, smiling. I grinned. "He's in a good mood today. I have a feeling things are going to go great between you guys. I assured Ivanka, watching her curiously, all the while keeping my eyes on Nate, who looked extra sexy today. That singlet showing off those muscles I loved so much.

It was rare that I dressed outside of my comfort zone, I was always dressing more like I was getting ready for work than going to school. My dresses were so professional. Always knee length and it was always a pencil skirt. It was very rare that I would wear jeans or something more comforable. Today was not a jeans and t-shirt day. I was dressed in a knee length pencil skirt with a lowcut pink blouse and I pair of heels as I wlaked side by side with Darya. She was one of my closest friends but sometimes I wanted to hit her. She always told me to go for it with Ethan, to just tell him how I feel, to tell him I am completely and utterly in love with him.

I shook my head quickly as she spoke "Darya, I cant just walk up to him and say 'I love you' he'd think I was insane. And maybe I am insane...how many moroi do you know that have dated guardians and the relationship actually lasted? What if its just doomed to fail...If I put myself out there, I could just be setting myself up for major heartbreak..." I argued, biting my lip.

I was terrified of rejection, worried that Ethan didnt feel as strongly for me as I did for him.

I looked over at Darya for a moment and bit my lip, we were so different and yet we got along so perfectly. She was more party girl and 'lets have fun';...an outgoing person. She dressed the way she wanted to, the way she liked. Me? I dressed more conservative "Dont take this the wrong way, you know I love you...your like my sister but...dont you think you should try and dress like your going to school and not a club or some random biker bar? I do love that top though, im gonna borrow it but I dont see how you think thats good to wear for school. I mean, you must like drawing attention because when ever you come out your room, people stare at you...your kind of a free spirit, I actually admire that about you...I wish I could be more like you, maybe then I wouldnt be so scared about what everyone else thinks."

I followed her to the front of the line and half smiled at the girls she's cut off "Sorry...she gets cranky if she doesnt get her breakfast before anyone else...nothing personal." I spoke apologetically to the girls as I put a few items on my tray. I didnt eat much, I was one of those 'if I eat this, i'll just get fat' type of person...I knew it was silly but its how I felt "I am eating, Darya...
On my plate were pancakes, icecream, a fruit salad which consisted of mostly pineapple -I loved pineapple, some orange juice and a little bowl of cereal.
As always I took an extra icecream. I tried not to eat alot of sweets but I couldnt resist ice cream, it was my weakness.

Before being dragged off to our table, I put a few extra items on my tray in case Ethan wanted anything extra, if not I would just have to eat it on the way to my first class .

I chuckled lightly as she pulled me to our table and moved to sit next to her, setting my tray down and watched her for a moment. She was watched the door like a hawk, no doubt looking for Nate and Ethan. I shook my head "Darya, you look like a crazy psycho stalker..." I teased and laughed a bit before hearing Darya say they were here and that Ethan was in a good mood today.
I felt my face immediately get hot, trying not to look up. I used my hair as a shield to hide my face "Is he looking over here?...how's he look?...scratch that, how do I look?"

Okay we all agree I'm a manwhore that is one thing that is quite obvious, I can't keep my dick in my pants. But around my actual friends I'm not that manwhore except for if we are going somewhere and we pass by chicks, of course I'm gonna stop and talk, maybe a little flirting here and then, bit of touching. Ya know it's just me and the way I am but I am a complete different person around my friends. Like come on I'm not a natural jerk all the time though I am a smart ass and well that's just my key bit of my personality one thing with me is that never take me seriously if you have just met me because I can say a lot of rude inappropriate shit and well I don't expect anyone to take me seriously but some do and that's why I have been suspended a lot because of punch on's with Moroi and Dhampirs. But only punch on with Morois because they try to show off in front of their girls when I start flirting with them and they flirt back then ladedah they get angry whoop de doo, your not gonna beat me your not built like I am so why try? haha.

I do try hard not to fight with Dhampir's or Moroi's but it's in my blood if something is coming at me with a weapon their fist or anything then well expect me to react. Strigoi's that is a whole different story, I have never actually come face to face with one and I guess that is why they are training us because most guardians at their first sight of a Strigoi freeze up and well they aren't human anymore but I can't imagine coming face to face with a Strigoi I know... Imagine that seeing Ethan, Ivanka or even Darya.. I am pretty sure I would freak out and just freeze over my whole body and have no idea what so ever on what to do, your mind would go blank and you think they are alive, but their appearance the red eyes that would give it away and then your heart would break at the sight... But you know I hope to never be in the position because if I ever am I honestly do not know what I would do. Strigoi hunting will become mine and Ethan's life soon enough and protecting of course, but what if one us died? like the Moroi care, as long as they are safe and the community they could not give a rats ass on whether we die or live, unless we die out and there is no more Dhampirs then they are fucked and have to protect themselves which I hope that happens, though in a way I don't wanna die so maybe not.

"Your right, that is crossing the friendship line. Good thing I'm not gay then huh?"

Shaking my head at him I just laughed, he was a weird one but that made me wonder was he gay? nah of course not he's inlove with Ivanka.. or is that just a cover up story.. Nah I'm letting my mind wonder now and that's just a tad bit freak and creeping me out even more. Off the gay subject!

"Hey, Nate, dude. I'm sorry. I only meant to hit your shoulder. I was joking around."

Rubbing my jaw I slowed down to his pace and shrugged. "I'm tough remember no hit can knock me down." and there I was back at my cocky stage that well will always stay with me no matter what and people better start getting used to it, which they are but if new people come I'll prob get hit haha

"You never know."

"Never knowing means not knowing what is going to happen but I know and it won't." I made sure my voice was hard and matter of fact, I wasn't looking over to the girls well because I didn't notice, my mind was on food. As soon as we got to the counter I grabbed a tray and stacked it with pancakes with maple syrup ice cream and strawberries, an expresso, cereal, toast practically one of everything. I looked up and Ethan was already walking and quite fast too and then it hit me he has seen the girls which means Ivanka. I started to walk over but got stopped by some girls and well you know me my flirt got on, I had them whispering in my ear and all this other shit and next thing you know I got a room number, kissing her on the cheek I made my way over to the table.

You never know when life would hit you like a burning tire, causing your whole body to feel like it should explode any moment. The way it makes you feel like your being is being burnt into a crisp, taking everything along with it, leaving you with nothing. Your body feeling empty, hollow, crushed. Everything just gone, in the blink of an eye. Nothing able to replace the emptiness you feel inside. Like someone has torn a huge gaping hole in your chest, leaving aches an pains to replace it and nothing else. Letting you know it can never be fixed. Nothing, and no one can help you fill it back up, letting you know they care. them only patting your back, telling you it should be ok, but every thing is not okay. Everything is wrong on so many levels. You feel as if your about to die, falling under that weight of the black hole, the wall pressing you down, holding you there until you die.

Until she saves you.

That one person, one who would be with you and help you through anything -even save you if they could- help you see the light in the darkness of nights. She is one to save you from yourself, and everything around you. Ангел спаситель. The Savior Angel. Not letting anything touch you, or hurt your soul. She being the only one to save you from everything, even the darkest of shadows that loam in your mind and body. The way that hair flows around her, the blond that creates a sort of halo, showing her angel like features. The way her blue eyes seem to pierce into your soul, seeming to think she is no good for you, but is wrong, making her believe she deserved you. That nothing could come between you. Nothing could separate you... that is, if you weren't in a crowded lunch room.

"Never knowing means not knowing what is going to happen but I know and it won't."

My eyes never once leaving the pair of blue I saw before me. The table we all sat at when we were freshman here at the Academy. Looking down from her eyes to her lips, then letting my eyes travel down to her blouse, the way it showed off just enough skin to make anyone horny. But that pencil skirt a total turn-off. In a way, I would like to see her in something more like what Darya wore. The way she still looked nice, but sexy at the same time. The way it showed her curves off. My mind wondering what Iva would look like naked and in bed, pressed against my own. Getting a hard on was something I really didn't want to do in the middle of a crowded lunch room, it sure wasn't in any of my plans.

I smiled as I made my way closer to her, seeing that smile cross her lips before she turned to Darya, who just gazed at me, causing me to lift a brow as I walk over and sit down, just in time to see Ivanka look back at me. I glanced over my shoulder, to see why Darya had a scowl on her face. I stiffed a laugh, seeing Nate flirt with a bunch of freshman Moroi. Sure they were pretty, but they couldn't compare to the two girls that were sitting right in front of me. The way they sat there, waiting for us, always getting this spot. I turned back to them, chuckling at the expression change on Darya's face. "For not dating, you sure seem pissed at him." I commented, turning to see him walk over to the table. "About time. Darya here was starting to look very pissed at you." I gestured over to her, seeing that stern look still there.

[Darya Kyznetsov]

Fashion was something that expressed your style, your personality. It was something that defined you. Most dressed up everyday looking their best, never missing a day to impress others. Some people dressed according to how they feel that day, either looking good or bad, but still pulling it off somehow in that way of theirs. Some people dress covering everything up, for fear that they won’t look good to the eyes of those they know and love. Then there were the kind who dressed not caring what others think. That was me. I dressed not caring if people stare at me, not caring what they think. All I show is how much of a party-goer I was. My appearance meant nothing unless people stared. I didn’t dress skanky, but the way I dressed gave me a lot of stares. I didn’t care, but I often wondering if it made Ivnka a little uneasy with me drawing attention. It drew attention to her as well. She was the type who wore clothes to covering anything up, but still show off something. She wore the pencil skirt that would show off the legs, almost business like, along with those business looking shoes. I would have to give her a make-over sometime.

"Darya, I cant just walk up to him and say 'I love you' he'd think I was insane. And maybe I am insane...how many moroi do you know that have dated guardians and the relationship actually lasted? What if its just doomed to fail...If I put myself out there, I could just be setting myself up for major heartbreak..."

Sometimes, I worry about her. She was so controlled by fear she couldn’t live her life. Everything was worth living for, even heartbreaks. Sure she feared him rejecting her, but when you have resources telling you that he loved you the same way, then go for it. Take some chances, maybe it just wasn’t meant to be, it was the way of life. To get anywhere, “You’ve got to take the chance. I know he loves you Iv. Just express your feelings, but just make sure he’s the only one around you.” I pointed out, getting comfortable in my seat before crossing my arms over my chest, letting my left leg cross over my right, pursing my lips. “I don’t know many, but some have separated only because of a guardian change. That will not happen to you. I’m sure of it.” I answered, letting my eyes wander around the room before seeing the boys, or rather ‘the boy’ flirting with a group of freshman moroi, seeing as one handed him a number, I tapped my foot, anger growing.

"Dont take this the wrong way, you know I love you...your like my sister but...dont you think you should try and dress like your going to school and not a club or some random biker bar? I do love that top though, im gonna borrow it but I dont see how you think thats good to wear for school. I mean, you must like drawing attention because when ever you come out your room, people stare at you...your kind of a free spirit, I actually admire that about you...I wish I could be more like you, maybe then I wouldnt be so scared about what everyone else thinks."

"Darya, you look like a crazy psycho stalker..."

That caught my attention, I gazed at her, a smile coming to my lips. “Good, then I look menacing.” I jerked my head over to Nate, who was just now kissing the girl on his right. It wasn’t on the lips, but it still infuriated me. Probably a bad idea to put my hand at my side, letting a ball of fire well up in my palm, hearing a slight crackle before making it disappear, seeing a teacher walk by. I gritted my teeth, seeing Ethan walk closer.

"Is he looking over here?...how's he look?...scratch that, how do I look?"

I looked back at her, laughing. “YOU, look fine. HE looks sexy.” I assured her, patting her cheek. I chuckled, “Your o cute when you worry darling.” I laughed flicking her nose a bit before hearing Ethan’s comment, glaring a bit. More at the fact that he was flirting than Ethan saying that. “Yea, but if he doesn’t get his ass over here, he’ll find it burnt for days.” I said, hearing him laugh. I shot him a look, seeing Nate sit down. “So, who’s number did ya get? No one important right?” I spat out, careful to hide jealousy. True I liked him, but we were friends. It’s just, everyday I see him flirt and it sparks some anger inside me, everyday it gets worse.
