"Obviously, who wouldn't miss me?" Boo teased, still hanging onto her friend. In a way he was like an older brother too her, and in another way she'd always had a crush on him. So it was more like a... best friends older brother forbidden territory thing. Yeah, that made a lot of sense, sure. Keep telling yourself that, Boo. With an innocent smile, she plucked the book from his hands and, careful to keep his page, tucked it behind her back so he couldn't get it. "My turn to monopolize your attention, the book can have you later." Again giving an innocent look, this time also batting her eyelashes for good measure.
His previous question caused her to pause. How had she been? Well, for starters she'd been sleeping on a bus for almost two weeks now. That's always fun. Actually it's rather cold, but at least she has her hoodie and a pillow. Oh, and she'd finally made enough money to buy that iPhone, so she could listen to music too. Though it was always awkward when people actually got on the bus and saw you laid out on a seat. This could be her chance to tell Sean, maybe even ask him what he would think of her staying at his house. Butterflies filled her stomach at the thought, and she gently bit her lip, a nervous habit. "Well," come on Boo, you can do it! "I've been okay. You?"
And that's why you are the omega, coward.
Hunter woke up that morning with a raging headache. Though he was only too eager to deal with it, because it was the reminder of last night. His brother and him had hosted a party, and everyone was there. Or at least, anyone who was important to Hunter. His brother had monopolized the Rock Band most the night, but no one really seemed to mind. The huge house was trashed though, and as he made his way downstairs in only his boxers, maids were already cleaning. Good morning Mister O'Neal. He turned to see the butler coming towards him. Or well, he wasn't really a butler. Sometimes he opened the door or got them drinks or something, but he was mostly just a paid playmate for Hunter. After all, the man was barely twenty five and loved video games as much as he did.
"Mornin' Alex!" Hunter replied, voice still drowsy. His head began throbbing again and he gently placed a hand against it, eyes pleading with Alex. Apparently the man knew what to do because he scurried off and returned with two Tylenol's and a Gatorade not even two minutes later. "I love you man, really." Swallowing the pills and then downing the drink, the boy ran back upstairs to shower and get dressed for school.
About a half hour later his brother and him pulled into the school parking lot. They'd taken his brothers car, a 'hunter' green Jeep. Hunter was dressed in dark grey jeans and a white polo shirt, which he had to think looked quite nice on him. Not wasting time lingering around with the other early students, especially since his head was still pounding, he went straight for the school doors. Unfortunately, there was even more children inside. With a loud sigh he moved over to the wall and leaned against it, content with people watching.
Kailey barely had time to shut the door before her brother drove away. "Jerk." The girl muttered, pushing her brown hair behind her ears before turning towards the school. A few people were staring at the girl, whispers arose and she knew they were all about her. Who was this new girl? Why was she coming here in the middle of the year? With a sigh, she carefully made her way through the vicious pack of high school students and looked around for anyone else in her pack. She'd only met them all a week ago, when she was first bitten. And she was still terrified of them, but was trying to deal with it.
Spotting Travis, she carefully made her way over and stood next to the boy. Unable to say anything, she just stared down at her hands.
