So a little while ago, I made a story involving James Stark and Erik night. A lot of people liked it, despite the fact that I killed Stark, so I decided to made another one. This one, I thought should be a love triangle between Stark-Erik-Zoey, but if you guys have any other ideas with the new characters I'm making, please tell me what you think. I want to update a new chapter every weekend that I can, but I need ideas. Any HoN fans out there willing to pitch some out for me? I'd be very appreciative! But for right now, here's the first chapter. I hope you guys enjoy this one like you enjoyed the last.
Stark
I woke up in the middle of the day with the sun trying to peek through my black curtains. I groaned loudly and turned on my side. I almost jumped out of my skin when I heard a loud thump. My almost scare turned into a quiet chuckle when I heard my roommate swear under his breath.
"Don't laugh at me, Stark." Came a deep voice from none other than the famous, and incredibly hot, Erik Night. I turned back over and shielded my eyes from the tiny rays of blinding light. "I wasn't laughing at you; I was laughing with you." I said innocently and he glared at me. Even though he was trying to act angry, I could see he was just as amused as I was.
He stood up and walked over to put the blinds down behind the curtains. I took in a deep breath as I watched the bare muscles in his back and arms flex when he reached up to twist the plastic thing that closed the curtains. He was only wearing a pair of dark blue boxers that hung loosely around his hips, thighs, and most importantly, his ass. They also hung low enough when he turned around I could see the top of his V.
I rolled over before he caught me staring at his unmentionables. The last thing I needed was the most popular guy in the school knowing I was gay, and that Zoe was my cover up. Which really wasn't fair to her, but sometimes the truth is better left covered up.
"What time is it?" I mutter into my pillow after I hear him lay back down. He pulled his covers up over his body then reached over to grab the clock and check it. "Three o'clock." He answers then sets the clock back down. Great. I roll my eyes before closing them. Erik immediately fell back asleep, but I stayed awake fantasizing about him.
I imagined his strong arms wrapping themselves around my stomach to pull me closer; his strong, chizzledchest pressing against mine as his soft pink lips attacked my throat; then my blood flowing into his mouth and my head going insane from the pleasure.
My thoughts were immediately brought back to the present when I heard myself moan and I realized I had been palming myself through my boxers. My pale face lit up with embarrassment and I glanced over my shoulder to thankfully see that Erik was still asleep.
I sighed. Now I would have to try to sleep with a boner. So uncomfortable. To try and calm myself down though, I tried filling my mind with thoughts about beaver. Which didn't help very much, because then Justin Beiber came to my mind. I mentally slapped myself then got up and went into the bathroom to try and take care of my.. 'problem'.
When I came out, I saw that the alarm was about to go off. I just rolled my eyes then went to the closest that Erik and I shared and pulled out some clothes to put on.Erik rolled over five seconds before the alarm went off and turned off the clock. He looked over at me with sleepy, icy blue eyes. "Why are you always up so early?" He mutters and I shrug, not really wanting to answer truthfully. "I have a strange sense of time." I say then pull my shirt on. I didn't meet his gaze while I got dressed, but I could tell he was watching me. I tried hiding my red face as he went into the bathroom to pee.
"I'm going to go ahead and go down to the common room." I call then open the door. Standing across the hall was my worst nightmare. Aphrodite. I inwardly groaned then nodded to her before turning and walking down the hall and down the stairs. She didn't say anything to me, just gave me her usual bitch smile.
"Stark!" A familiar voice calls then I feel arms wrapping themselves around my neck and lipstick covered lips pressing themselves against mine. I had to force myself to kiss back and stop from flinching as the smell of Zoey's perfume washed over me. "Hey, babe." I murmur and she smiles then rubs offthe red lipstick she had smeared on my face. "Hey." She replies then releases her grip on my neck and slides down to her feet. It seemed like she was purposely rubbing her boobs up against my chest on her way down. I wished I could learn how to fake a boner.
Behind us, Aphrodite and Erik walked out. They were fighting over something stupid then Aphrodite shoved him back into a glass vase and they both landed on the ground; Erik on top of the vase, which was now glass shards. I could smell the blood before anyone else could and rushed over to help him up. "It's over." Aphrodite spat then flipped her wavy blonde hair over her shoulder and strutted out of the common room.
"Thanks." Erik gasps as I start pulling out the shards before his body healed around them. I wanted so badly to lick the blood off of my fingers, but with everyone watching, I couldn't. When they were all out and onto the floor, I helped Erik stand up. "Neferet is going to be pissed." I heard Jack whisper and I turned to look at him. "She doesn't have to find out." I said then looked at the back of Erik's shirt. There were holes all over it, with blood smeared on them. His next words mimicked my thoughts; "And this was my favorite shirt."
He frowned then turned and walked back up the stairs to go change. "You're so sweet." Zoey murmurs as she clings to my arm then reaches up to kiss me. I kiss back and smile. "I know, baby." She blushes then her hand trails down my arm to my hand and she clasps ours together. After Erik came back down, now wearing the school uniform like he was supposed to be, we all walked to the cafeteria. Erik stayed near the back, keeping his eyes down to his feet. I could tell the breakup was a little much for him.
"Zo, give me a sec with Erik, would ya?" I ask and she nods then lets me go and I trail back to walk next to him. "You doing okay, bro?" I ask him. He shrugs and sighs, looking over at me. His eyes didn't look sad like I had expected, but instead they seemed kind of relieved. "I'm doing better than I have for a while." He says and I watch a small smile twitch up at the corners of his mouth. I laugh then pat him on his back. He didn't even flinch. "Awesome."
We all walked into the cafeteria, and the first thing I could smell was bacon, eggs, and biscuits. My stomach growled, but it wasn't for the food. I could still smell Erik's blood on my fingers and it was driving me insane. We all walked over to where Damien, Jack, and the Twins were sitting. Both of the Twins stared at Erik with hungry eyes, and I had to swallow my jealousy when he winked at them.
"You guys hungry?" Zoey asks as she sits in her chair and nods to the one beside her for me to sit in. I laugh and nod. "So hungry I could eat a horse." They all rolled their eyes at me, and Shaunee let it slip that I'd probably hump it first. I stuck my tongue out at her then set my stuff down and went to get something to eat.
Erik had sat at the table behind us with a few of his friends. If I remembered correctly, their names were Caleb, who was tall with light brown hair he always kept in a tall fohawk, and he had baby blue eyes that kind of reminded me of the Arctic Ocean. The other one's name wasJonathan who had the same hairstyle and complexion of Caleb, except his hair was a light blonde, and his eyes were emerald green.And the last one, I couldn't remember his name, but he kept his hair extremely short, possibly because of how curly it was, and he had black eyes. I thought they were contacts, but everyone else said they were real.
I filled my plate up with as much as I could eat before going back over to the table.Zoey stared over at my plate with wide eyes. "Are you really going to eat all of that?" She asks and I roll my eyes. "Well duh." I hear her snort before she starts eating her food and going into a quiet conversation with Damien about Neferet.
I repeatedly glanced back at Erik, and every time I would, the guy who I didn't know would jerk his head up and say something to Erik who would just shrug as reply. I tried eating as fast as I could so I could get out of there. What if his friend told him I was practically gawking over him?
I shuddered at the thought of having Erik Night hate me. I swore that was when the world would end. "Babe, slow down." Zoey says and looks over at me as I stuffed my face full. I shake my head then swallow. My throat was so dry I almost chocked, so I got a long drink of water. They were all staring at me, some looking slightly annoyed. Some meaning Zoey and Shaunee.
"I'm just nervous, don't worry about it." I say and wrap my arm around Zoey and plant another meaningless kiss on her lips. She giggles and kisses back; I could feel her face getting warmer at my PDA. "I'll see you later tonight, baby." I say then stand up and go to put my plate away. I could smell her excitement all the way from where I was going. We'd had sex a couple of times, but I never really enjoyed it. But Zoey, who hadn't had sex with any other guy, thought that everything was normal and that was how it was supposed to be done. In reality, what was supposed to be done, I would do to Erik one day. I swore myself to it.
"Leave fast enough?" I hear a snarky voice as soon as I step out of the giant doors."What's it to you?" I shoot back and glare over at her. She just shrugs and looks at her nails, as if they were actually interesting. "I saw the way you were drooling over Erik's blood. Usually guy vampires don't think that about other guy vampires." I roll my eyes at her then throw my bag over my shoulder and continue walking. "You know, I broke up with him so you could actually have a chance."
Her words stop me dead in my tracks and I shake my head. "I don't need a chance with him. I have Zoey." I can hear the smirk in her voice. "You mean your cover up bitch? Face it Stark, you're in love with Erik, and any chance you get to have him, you're going to jump at it. Zoey or no Zoey." It was true. I loved Zoey, but not the same way I loved Erik. Zoey was more sisterly and Erik was more intimate. "You know, this is his last year here. You might as well get him while you can. Before he Changes or.. Rejects the change." Her last words sent a shiver through my entire body.
I turned to try and yell at her, but she wasn't there. I took in a deep breath. Erik wouldn't reject the Change. He was healthy and strong. But what if he does? I shook off the question and rubbed my eyes to stop the tears from even springing up. I couldn't lose Erik to something like that. No, I wouldn't. I kept my thoughts on everything but Erik as I turned to go to class.
Sorry this chapter was so short, I just want to get some of you guys' ideas before I do much with it. Please, please, please, pleaseee if you have anything you want to happen tell me and I will do my best to fit it into the story. Also, if you have any ideas for any new characters or the new unnamed character, I'd love for you to share.
I do not own any books or characters (that haven't been made up) from the House of Night series.
I'll get back to you guys as soon as I can. :)
