Homeroom

It bothered me....so much. To be standing there listening to their plans...the plans that didn't include me at all...but yet...revolved around me. I knew the only reason they wanted to watch Adam so closely was because he'd declared me something he wished to "obtain". I hated being so powerless...I mean I knew if Adam was really serious there was nothing I'd be able to do about it. But still....I didn't like the thought of putting my beloved and close friend in line to DIE for me...Clovis had just said it. Neither of them would be able to fully DEFEAT Adam...

Shori held me tightly, and continued to plead me to stay out of it. Even as Clovis left, I could just stand there and hear Shori's words. I heard them...desperately wanted to follow them...and yet...something inside me would not 'accept' them. Yet, I did all I could to ease his mind...he was my only concern. I wouldn't have him worry on my behalf...but deep down...I wouldn't allow him to 'protect' me on his own either.

Following the exchange, we headed off to our homeroom. Weaponry and Defense. Immediately upon entering...I remembered him far more clearly. That man...Brenin...now I remembered EVERYTHING that face could tell. His eyes seemed to meet mine, one could never tell with him wearing those GLASSES all the time...I glared for a moment before nonchalantly gazing off in the opposite direction. I didn't care to hear any of his reasons for being here...my one and only thought...'He'd better leave Shori be'.

Yet as I took a seat, he obviously couldn't resist the urge to make contact. He knew how I hated socializing...

"Well well Princess, you're looking well." He snickered.

"Oh my! Brenin...THAT Brenin?!" I feigned ignorance. "Wow...can't believe you're still alive. What cave you been hiding in?" I smirked.

"Cave? Come now Princess, don't mistake me for one of YOUR kind. After all, caves are for bats." He sneered right back.

My eyes narrowed as I glared at him...a small hiss itching to escape my lips. "Well, I see you STILL haven't learned to mind that tongue of yours either..."

"Nor you." He quipped.

"Enough you two...it's about time for my nap...ugh...I mean for class to start..." Shori chimed in walking up.

"Hah! Don't even THINK about sleeping in my class...give me that much of an opening and I'll skin you alive!" Brenin commented in Shori's face.

"I'd like to see you try..." Shori yawned. "Never gonna happen man...you should just give it up already..."

I smiled, casting Brenin a vicious look of superiority. He didn't stand a chance against my Shori. I was about to say a bit more, when a smack echoed through the classroom. It snapped me back to the moment at hand, the bell had already rung and the classroom was full of Vampire Nobles. I scanned the crowd for the source of the slap first.

"What in the world...it's that...Sebastian guy..." I whispered to Shori.

Shori yawned again. "Man I swear...just BEING in a classroom makes me tired...as for them...who cares Mei. Just ignore it."

I smiled. "Alright. It's none of our concern anyway..." I told myself. Though I was a bit curious...he'd slapped a woman...was that HIS woman or something? Was she CHEATING on him?! A LOVE SCANDAL!!! No Mei....NO....calm down....don't let your curiosity control you....

Brenin took control of the situation before I could find out anymore, and class began. This would be...interesting.

Mei: Nyaa? *innocent look*
Kira: *hand to face* You're doomed....

Left the whole discussion between Shori and Mei to you if you wish Atticus. ^-^
