of the corner of my eye. I managed to smile weakly at him as I walked into the hall.
Gage

I watched Aureli as she walked down the hall, her slim figure disappearing from view. Henry advanced on me, looking ready to sock the daylights out of me.
"What?" I asked, thoroughly confused.
"I'll give you five seconds to run before I kill you. Gives me enough time to kill Kade while he eats that month old pizza." Henry growled, jerking his head towards Kade, who was reading the funny comics in the newspaper.
Kade gagged, looking ready to throw up the pizza he just scarfed down.
I snickered at him and he shot me a seriously scary glare.
"I'll kill you before you can kill me." Kade answered simply to Henry's comment.
"Pfft...yeah right..." Henry trailed off, realizing that Kade might be serious.
"Do I still have that five second start?" I asked.
"No. I've lost my patience with you. Hijack my stuff will you? At least do it yourself, cause then maybe your goons won't get you into so much trouble with me." Henry growled.
"What's with you? Have you started to think that you're Aureli's personal bodyguard or something? She'd probably die before you could protect her." I snapped.
I tensed, ready for Henry to strike at me. I wasn't THAT stupid, I know when my big mouth is going to get me into a fight. Kade seemed to be oblivious to our soon to be fight.
"Can we get doughnuts?" Kade asked, stifling a laugh at the funny comics.
If there was one person Henry hated more than me, it would be Kade.
"NO!" Henry and I shouted in unison.
Kade slumped down in his chair like a kicked puppy.
He glared daggers at the funny comics he was reading.
"Aureli would get me doughnuts..." He grumbled.
"Let's get this over with. When Aureli comes back, you two dumbos will be locked in that closet." Henry gestured to the one nearest to me, "And not to mention you'll be dead."
"You can kill me, but make sure to do it without maiming my face. Even when I'm dead I want to look as beautiful as it does now." I retorted, adding as much snobbishness in my voice as possible.
Henry clenched and unclenched his fists like he was having a nervous spasm.
"That's all you ever care about isn't it Gage." Henry said hotly.
"Why of course." I said as calmly as possible, even though I felt like strangling him. I don't know why, but I just wanted to.
Kade sensed the tension between us and jumped between us.
"Donuts, good. Fighting each other, not good." he told us, his face serious.
I had to bite my tongue to keep from laughing out loud. Leave it to Kade to break up a fight.
Henry stared at Kade incredulously, but his arms dropped to his sides and his fists stopped their spasm.For a while, Kade, Henry, and I had a staredown, until I heard a cry of surprise, and Aureli came running in the room, beet red.
"What happened?" Henry asked.
"Stupid new kid, touching...." Aureli's voice became inaudible.
Whoever the new kid was, their so going to be dead. Just from what I heard was enough for me to kill.
Wow, now I sound like Henry.

Aureli

I sat down on the couch, still red. I recalled what had happened when I went to Mrs.Stalin's.

I opened the door to her office, to immediately see her, talking with a boy my age. He had stringy blonde hair, and blue eyes. Mrs. Stalin looked up at me, grinning.
"Mrs.Vaughn, thanks for coming at such a short notice. I was hoping you could show Mr. Greene around, if you don't mind?" Mrs. Stalin said.
I shrugged, before nodding. This 'Mr. Greene' guy turned to me with a smirk.
"Name's Chase. Chase Greene." He said, walking up to me.
"I'm Aureli." I replied. "Come on, I've got to get back to the buffoons in my room which are most likely killing each other for 'dominance'." I air-quoted the words.
Chase chuckled under his breath.

After showing Chase around, I stopped at his room, which was just down the hall from mine. Chase opened the door, gesturing for me to come in. After closing the door behind me, Chase grinned.
"So, you got a boyfriend?" He asked bluntly.
I felt my cheeks heat up.
"Sort of." I said.
Chase frowned, strutting up to me. He pushed me against the wall, practically grinding against me.
"Too bad, since I did have something in mind..." Chase trailed off, his hand going up my half shirt. Before I could stop him, he grabbed onto my boob, causing me to squeak, and shove him away. I opened the door, running to my dorm room, and onto the couch.

"What's wrong?" Gage asked.
"Um...I was molested?" It came out as a question.
"I don't know, you tell us. I knew there was someone Mrs.Stalin wanted you to meet-"
"His name was Chase...I believe his last name was Greene. And next time I run into him, he's dead." I growled.
Henry and Gage shared a look, both paling. They then turned to me.
"What did he do?" Henry asked.
I frowned, looking away. "He was pestering me, and then he pinned me against the door and-"
"That's enough for us to kill him." Gage growled, stomping out.
Henry followed, leaving me with Kade. Kade smiled at me.
"Can we go get doughnuts?" He asked.
I sighed, nodding.

After getting doughnuts for Kade, I returned to Gage and Henry yelling at none other than Chase. He looked to me, and smirked.
"So you've been shacking up with these two? Wow, I thought someone as hot as you would have better standards." Chase said cockily.
That rewarded him with a punch to the face from Gage.
"Haven't you done enough damage? Don't speak to Aureli that way!" Gage growled. "Just because she wouldn't fuck with you, doesn't mean you can be an ass!"
Chase shrugged. "They usually go for vamps."
Henry stifled a grim chuckle. "Yeah, those would be the sluts, not Aureli."
I glared, the temperature in the room seeming to drop. Henry shivered, turning and looking at me.
"I hate when you do that." He said, rewarded with me sticking my tongue out.
Henry rolled his eyes, before turning back to glare at Chase.
"I'm really sick of your disgusting sight, you ass!" He growled. "It was bad enough when you ruined my life, but you crossed the line for trying to rape Aureli!"
"Technically, I didn't rape her-"
"You had the intent!" Gage added.
"Hey, Gage, brother, I haven't seen you in a while. Good to know you and the freak over here had some good taste, though I'm not sure I'd approve of threesomes." Chace greeted, venom clearly laced into the words.

Dedication:
I dedicate this book to Kaori Rose and Catari Ray. We came up with many ideas for this book together, after laughing our butts off. I've spent many afternoons laughing about random scenes we are thinking about putting in the book. That's what friends are for right?
