Authors Note: Hello FF. This is my very first Fanfiction ever so it may not be the greatest in the world but I love it and I hope that you will too.
This is probably going to be quite a bit off from how the movie was because I don't know it like the back of my hand and I don't necessarily want it to be like the movie or any other Covenant fics that I have read (which I tend to only read the ones that have more than 50 reviews, but that's just me.) So I guess that you could say that it's a lot more my own than anything else.
Also, Kate is a lot OFC because I don't really enjoy her character at all, however I do think that there is nothing wrong with the actress. It's just who she portrayed that I don't like. Oh and Sarah is going to be a bit OFC as well as Chase in the beginning but things change constantly. Hehe.
Disclaimer: I do not own the Covenant or the Sons of Ipswich, which is a shame because that Chase Collins.. Ruff! OKay, sorry, a little off topic. I only own Kiegan and any other OCs I add in the future.
ps. As you can tell its currently Chase/OC, Kate/Pogue but things will change. They always do when you least expect it. And know now that I will not be having Sarah/Caleb nor will I be having ANY slash. So don't expect to see either in my story.
But please do expect to get a preview of the next chapter at the end of nearly every chapter.
ON WITH THE STORY! (:
*EDIT: I am re-uploading this first chappy because I forgot to do spell check and because Kira's name is spelt wrong. It needs to have a "y" instead of an "i".
CHAPTER ONE
Kiegan's good hand lay in front of her, her black paint-chipped nails thrumming on the writing ledge in front of her; her silver eyes darting around the room as she let out a bored sigh. Today was just any old day at Spencer Academy, her classes drilling on and on without any release.
She had only been at Spenser for two and a half weeks and already she was bored out of her skull, and of course, nobody could make it more endurable. Her roommate made it even worse when she kept talking and talking and talking about nothing but gossip and that was definitely not her style.
She would rather just hang out in the Library, reading or doing research or even doodling still out of boredom but it was more enjoyable boredom that what she was currently experiencing and that irritated the hell out of her.
Her bad arm, the one that she'd broken the same day that she arrived at Spencer was really starting to itch, but Kiegan didn't have any way of releasing that little problem and using her pencil wasn't the best idea. The last time she used it she got it stuck in there and had to get help from her only friends boyfriend, Aaron, to get the damned thing out.
She didn't like feeling like she needed help or sympathy, especially from friends and even more so from people she didn't really know or didn't know her either. Aaron was an exception though cause if Kira could trust him then she could too, she just hoped that she wasn't wrong in that aspect. Although, Aaron seemed pretty nice straightforward, she had heard a lot of things bad about him like flirting with other girls and other things but she couldn't see it. But just because he wasn't being that way with her right now, didn't mean that he wouldn't be like that towards her at some point.
She really did dread that time when it came, she didn't like getting in between people.
Why did she have to try and jump from that tree? If she hadn't done that then she wouldn't be in her current situation. She really did wish that she paid more attention and go with her gut feeling, but it just wasn't working out that way. Oh well. She could hone in on it later on, when she really needed it, a broken arm wasn't all that big of a deal.
After a few minutes her eyes landed on someone she hadn't seen since she was at the Dells with Kira and Aaron. She didn't catch his name because he was with the "Sons of Ipswich" as Kyra, Aaron and the whole other student body called them. How precarious, she thought. Another reason that she didn't get his name is because one of Aaron's football friends ralphed all over his Varsity, which was a little funny given what the guy had said just before doing it, but she didn't laugh. She really didn't need her only friends hating her, hell, that was the very last thing that she needed right now.
He must have noticed her eyes on him because at that moment he looked up at her and smiled a very nice smile that Kiegan couldn't help but return, he was definitely an A-class, bonified, hottie as her old best friend; Alana would say.
'Hello?' he mouthed to her.
'Hi.' she mouthed back, her smile brightening.
'You bored?'
'You have no idea.' she mouthed again.
He mouthed something again, but she didn't quite catch it because she received a tap on her shoulder, causing her to turn and land her eyes on one of the "Sons" from the party.
"Hey, do you have a pencil I could barrow, mine just broke and I don't have a sharpener." he asked, his voice holding slight authority that Kiegan could tell that he couldn't help.
"Uh, sure, just a sec." she replied, turning to Kyra and tapping her shoulder.
"What's up?" she asked casually, her hand playing in Aaron's hair.
"Can you steal me one of Aaron's pencils?" asked Kiegan with a smirk as her friend pulled one out of his hand.
"Hey!"
"Oh shush, you're not going to use it, we all know that." replied Kyra playfully.
Aaron's shoulders slumped slightly.
"You can copy my notes later." said Kiegan, taking the pencil.
"Deal." said Aaron, him and Kyra bringing their attention back to the Professor.
Kiegan turned back around, handing him the pencil with a ghost of her previous smirk.
"Thanks. I'm Caleb by the way." he said, his smile nearly melting her.
"Kiegan." she replied simply before turning back around without so much as a smile.
Kiegan's eyes found a way back towards her previous endearment only to find him immersed in the Professor's lesson, causing Kiegan to sigh.
The rest of the lesson went by a lot faster after that, as well as the rest of her classes. Once the bell rang she made sure to get caught up to Aaron and Kyra to see if they were doing anything later before heading for her dorm, hoping more than anything that her roommate was not there.
Unfortunately, luck just was not on her side that day cause her annoying roommate was in their room listening to some boy band that almost made Kiegan's ears bleed from the horrendous-ness of their "music" Kate so eloquently put it.
"Hey there roomy! Have fun in your classes?" she asked with a sickly sweet voice, making Kiegan gag slightly.
"Oh yeah, totally. Had the time of my life, as usual." replied Kiegan, laying on the fake smile for effect but Kate just wasn't buying it.
"You really should pay more attention in your classes, y'know. It's a lot less lame once you actually pay attention to whats going on. Plus it helps your grades because half of the time the Professors are checking to see if you have been paying attention or not. It could end with a failing grade." prattled Kate, her know-it-all nature showing.
Kiegan took a few calming breaths before saying anything to Kate, in fear of "accidentally" attacking her like a Lioness does it's prey.
"I already know pretty much half of the things their teaching us. I can go take the final test right now if I wanted to and pass it, and the semester only just started Kate."
Kate rolled her eyes at Kiegan before turning her music up a little and getting back to her homework.
"Dude, seriously with the Backstreet Boys?" said Kiegan, her voice level.
"Their hot and I happen to love their music, sorry if it bothers your poor little ears but get over it. It's my room." replied Kate, her voice rising slightly.
"Whatever Kate, but it is my room too. However, if it's such a big deal fine, take the room. I don't care." said Kiegan, making sure to hold off from shouting as her body began to pulse with unreleased anger, but she wasn't going to let it out. Not for something that stupid anyway.
"Good! Get the hell out then stupid bitch!" yelled Kate getting up from the desk and stalking toward Kiegan, getting in her face.
Kiegan didn't back down, she kept her ground, she wasn't going to let some prissy gossip monger make her back down. She wasn't going to play that way, not now, not ever.
"Geeze Kate." said Kiegan with mock surprise at her words.
"Wow.." said an unfamiliar voice from the doorway.
Both girls looked over to see a boy with long brown hair, hazel eyes and major muscles.
"Oh, uhm.. Hey baby!" said Kate cheerily, acting as if nothing happened.
"Your not seriously going to pretend that I didn't just hear what you said, right?" said Pogue raising his eyebrow and crossing his arms in front of his muscular chest.
He definitely didn't seem pleased at how his girlfriend was being to the new girl. And here he thought that she was one of the sweetest girls at their school, instead she was calling this girl names and getting in her face for nothing.
"Pogue, baby, you don't understand..." began Kate, but Pogue cut her off.
"I think that I understand pretty well, Kate. I saw the whole thing, all she;" he pointed to Kiegan. "asked was, if you were serious about the Backstreet Boys - which is something I'd ask too and have on several occasions - and your being a total bitch about it. It's just music for Christ sake and like she said, it's her room as well."
He finished, his voice showing his anger.
"But, Pogue..." tried Kate once more, but was cut off once again by Pogue.
"I think we should talk," said Pogue reaching over and shutting off the music and walked towards her and Kiegan. "Can we have a little privacy? If that's okay with you, don't really wanna talk in that hall."
Kiegan turned around and stuffed a few things into her bag before slinging it over her shoulder, "Sure. I was about to leave anyways."
She quickly walked passed him, but stopped when he coughed, causing her to turn and look at him.
"New girl, what's your name?" he asked calmly.
"Kiegan." she replied simply before heading for the showers, but not before she could hear the beginning of Pogue and Kate's conversation.
Which sounded an awful lot like fighting, but whatever.
Kiegan was in the shower for a little over forty minutes before she got out, her black towel wrapped tightly around her naked body as she headed towards the changing part of the room, making sure to pull the plastic from her cast before walking in.
She quickly removed the towel from her body and wrapped her hair up in it, then grabbed a pair of black boy-shorts and a black bra and pulled them on before pulling on her red flowy skirt that rested a few inches above her knees.
A noise came from behind her as she was bending to pick up her red long-sleeved crew-neck, causing her to snap to attention. After a few moments of silence she pulled on her shirt and then zipped her matching red lace corset and strapped her black wedge heels to her feet.
The same noise came from behind her once again and now she knew that she couldn't ignore it, so she grabbed her pepper spray from her bag and held it out in front of her cautiously.
"Hello? Whose there?" she hollered, her voice slightly shaky.
No response.
"I'm not afraid to defend myself!"
Again, nothing.
"Geeze, Kieg, you're really losing it." she said to herself before bursting into laughter.
Feeling like a complete dork, Kiegan stepped out of the showers and headed back to her dorm, slowing down right before her door to make sure they weren't still talking.
She waited another minute before deciding that the coast was clear, shoved her key in the lock and turned the handle slowly as she poked her head in. Just to be extra sure.
"Hello?" she added for good measure.
Just like in the showers, she got no response, causing her to let out the breath she was holding.
She dropped her bag off on her bed before snatching up her RAZR and her car keys before running down the halls, she was late meeting Kyra and Aaron at Nicky's. The only hang-out Ipswich had to offer.
After another 30 minutes of extra slow driving - due to her applying the black eyes liner, black shadow and pink lipstick she forgot to apply earlier - she arrived at Nicky's over an hour and a half late for meeting her friends.
She locked her red corvette and sauntered into the bar, her head swinging left and right looking for any sight of those friends of hers before her eyes landed on Aaron at one of the various pool tabled and Kyra absolutely nowhere in sight - maybe she was in the bathroom or something - then made another quick sweep to assess who was all there.
She couldn't really see anyone interesting, well except for that Caleb guy she met officially earlier and his friends, including Pogue who looked a little worn out. Maybe she should go over and see if everything went okay between him and Kate, but thought better of it when she saw her come to sit beside him, a blonde girl Kiegan had only seen at the Dell's taking a seat next to her.
They said a few words before Pogue stood up and made a bee-line towards the bar, which Kiegan followed in suit of, only instead of talking to him she simply walked passed him and stood near Aaron.
"So, whose winning?" she asked with a smile as she approached him and two of the four "Sons of Ipswich".
"We are beautiful girl, we are." replied the blonde boy, his blue-grey eyes giving her a once over.
"Shut up Garwin, the games not over yet." said Aaron, his jaw clenched. "Your late Kieg."
"Yeah, yeah. Had a little... affray with the lovely roommate." she replied, mocking Kate's voice fairly well.
"A-wha?" asked Aaron, clearly confused.
"Altercation, fight, battle, bone of contention, beef. You know, argument." she replied, mocking him playfully.
"You and your damn dictionary brain." laughed Aaron.
Kiegan laughed along with him before looking at Aaron's opponents who were giving them a look of confusion, shock and oddly enough, slight horror causing Kiegan to laugh even harder.
"Alright, let's get this game finished Abbott." said the blonde one quickly.
Kiegan stood there watching the spectacle that the boys were making of themselves, and even giggled a little when Aaron and his friend lost - hiding it when Aaron looked at her, so as not to get into anything with him or later, Kira - only letting it out when he stalked off angrily.
"Very nice." she said once she stopped laughing.
Even though Aaron and Kira were her friends, it was a little amusing to see Aaron losing in pool. Which she often lost to him and did the same thing, but now that it was Aaron who lost, it was a whole lot funnier then she thought.
"So, what's your name, beautiful girl?" asked the blonde with a devious smirk.
Oh boy, he was a player, Kiegan could already tell that much.
"Kiegan Parish.." she replied with a smile, holding her hand out for him to shake, which he gladly took.
"Reid Garwin." he replied smoothly.
After a few seconds he was still holding Kiegan's hand and she "discretely" looked over at his friend expectantly, her face clearly asking him for help.
Catching her hint - which Reid obviously had not caught - he stepped up and offered his hand to her, causing Reid to finally let her hand go free so she could shake his friends' hand.
"Tyler Simms." he said with a slightly shy smile.
"Ah, your friends with Caleb and Pogue that I... well I didn't actually meet any of you at the Dells Party cause Aaron's friend ralphed all over him. Which, was definitely the highlight of that drab and dismal day." she said with a laugh at the memory.
Tyler and Reid laughed along with her.
"It really was, wasn't it?" agreed Reid, looking slightly proud, but for what reason was unknown to her.
"How are you liking Spencer?" asked Tyler, seemingly less shy than before.
"Oh it's a bomb. I swear, time of my life." she replied sarcastically.
"Try being there since freshman year. Talk about hell." said Reid giving a genuine smile.
"Well, I'll chat with you guys later. It was nice talking to you." said Kiegan sweetly, giving them a little wave as she walked the few feet to the bar.
"God, she's hot." sighed Reid.
At that moment Pogue walked toward his friends, a smile on his face.
"Good evening boys."
Reid and Tyler gave him pats on the back and gave little 'heys'.
Before too long Reid shifted his eyes back over to where Kiegan was and smiled deviously as he took in her shapely skirt draped legs and slapped down a five.
"Black, thong."
"Blue, cotton." said Tyler following suit.
Pogue took a glance at the unknown - to him - girl and slapped down a five of his own.
"Boys, she's definitely wearing black boy-shorts. That girl is not going to wear a thong, nor is she going to wear something that is blue."
"We'll see about that, she seems like a total thong girl to me." replied Reid arrogantly.
He looked around quickly to make sure the coast was clear before his blue-grey flashed with fire and dissipated, causing a slight breeze to pick up and flick Kiegan's skirt up - which she quickly looked down at and smoothed out - but showing that Pogue was in fact right.
"Damn it Pogue, how are you always right?" wondered Reid, outrage thickening his words like molasses.
"It's a gift, man." he replied, pleased with himself yet again.
Satisfied with himself that he won his food, Pogue sauntered off to grab his order but had to stop for moment at a familiar voice.
"You don't think anyone saw anything, do you?" she asked a girl that was beside her, who noticed the slight breeze cause it lifted her shirt a tiny bit but, not near as much as Kiegan's skirt went up.
"I think your good." replied the girl with a small smile.
"Thanks." said Kiegan softly, her face slightly red from blushing.
She looked over to where Nicky was and spotted Pogue, who looked at her with a little bit of shock and had some amusement underneath that Kiegan picked up on with ease, causing her blush to darken once again.
After a few moments, and her blush disappearing, Kiegan made the decision to go and talk to Pogue like she had planned when she got there.
"Hey, uhm, you saw... Didn't you?" she asked, her voice soft.
"No." he replied a little too quickly.
Seeing his error, he decided to try a different approach.
"Okay, yeah, I kind of did."
"Oh goody!" she said with mock excitement before continuing. "That must mean that Reid and Tyler did as well?"
Pogue nodded slowly, his lips pulling up into a toothy grin.
"Oh god." Kiegan's voice was slightly muffled by her hands.
Pogue laughed a little which Kiegan joined in on.
"Don't worry, nobody else saw your panties." said Pogue laughing heartily this time.
"Shut up!" she said with a smile, whacking him on the arm playfully.
They laughed once again before Pogue's food was finally finished, Kiegan's not long after his.
"Hey, you want to come and sit with me and the guys?"
"What about Kate?" she asked slowly, looking down at her now red nails.
"She'll behave when me and the guys are around, I promise." replied Pogue placing his hand on her shoulder reassuringly.
"Oh, I hope I can even stand that." whispered Kiegan more to herself than anything, but Pogue heard it nonetheless.
"Are you really going to just let her have the dorm or are you going to try and stick it out, without killing her, might I add."
"I don't know if I would be able to help myself. I think it'd be a good idea for me to just request another dorm from the Provost. Him and my grandfather are old friends so it shouldn't be too much of an inconvenience." she replied with a smile as she mentioned her grandfather.
"Besides, I think Kate and her blonde friend would do lots better as roommates than me and her ever could. I doubt the Provost wants a student killing another."
"Very good point. Still though, come sit with us. Get to know me and the guys better cause I'm pretty sure that Aaron and Kira would tell you some really... colorful things about us." said Pogue, his voice hardening as he said their names.
"They really aren't that bad. Besides, I don't let others tell me who and who not to hang out with, and I don't really listen to what people say about others anyways so we're all good. I bear no ill will towards you or any of the other "Sons of Ipswich"." she said the last part mockingly.
Pogue choked on his Coke a little and began to have a laughing fit.
"God, I still don't believe people are calling us that." he said once he got his laughing under control.
Kiegan clapped him on the back and kept it there as she put her face a little closer to his, cocking her head to the side.
"Oh but they are." she said with a big smile.
They picked up their food and drinks and headed towards Pogue and his friends' table.
"Guys, this is Kiegan Parish." said Pogue as the approached the table.
"Me and Ty already met her." said Reid with a smile, that he must have thought would make Kiegan melt, but looked slightly disappointed when she didn't.
Kiegan's eyes landed on Caleb, who was smiling at her.
"Hey. You want your pencil back?" he said with a grin, his voice laced with amusement at seeing her again so soon.
"It was Aaron's pencil." she replied with a laugh.
Reid made a face as she said Aaron's name, Tyler and the others mirroring his movement.
"I don't know how you can stand being their friend." said Kate, her voice harsh.
She obviously wasn't going to pretend not to detest her or her only friends.
"Well, if I could stand being your roommate the last few weeks and that God awful music, then I'm pretty sure that my friends are not a problem. At least I can stand them. Oh and they don't call me a bitch for asking them about their music." replied Kiegan casually.
"Kate's the roommate you had the... what was that word? Affray. Ha! I like that word." said Reid with a chuckle.
Kiegan smiled at him softly before looking at Kate who had a very pissed off look on her face, then to Sarah who just looked uncomfortable.
She held her hand out to Sarah and smiled sweetly, which Sarah took gratefully.
"Sarah Wenham."
"Hi Sarah." replied Kiegan just as sweet as her smile. At least she wasn't a bitch from hell.
"What are you even doing here, Parish?" asked Kate with loathing.
"Kate!" said Pogue, his voice raising, causing everyone at the table to flinch.
Kiegan looked down at her fries and decided she needed to walk away for a moment, as things looked like they might get a little heavy.
"Oh damn, I forgot ketchup. Be right back!" she said quickly turning around to flee but ran into a muscular chest with an 'oof!'
"Whoa, careful." said a voice that made Kiegan look up shyly then smiled at who it was.
"Well, hey there." she said brightly.
"Hey yourself." he said with a smile that matched hers.
"You guys know each other from somewhere?" asked Caleb.
"Yeah, from that one class the three of us are in. With Mr. Ames." replied Kiegan, her heart pounding in her chest.
"Well, we don't know each other officially. Chase Collins." said the boy with the sexy green eyes.
"Kiegan Parish." she said with another smile.
"And now we have." said Chase, mimicking her smile.
The two of them were lost in their own little world so they didn't notice the looks they got from the table that varied from confusion, anger, and annoyance.
Next up on Angels Eyes:
"I cannot believe that you're actually going to stay in this dorm room! I thought that you were going to leave!" hollered Kate angrily.
"Yeah, well, it's my room too and if you want me out, then I guess that you are just going to have to try harder." replied Kiegan with a smug smile.
"Oh my god! You are so impossible! I want you out of this dorm room before I count to three..." said Kate, holding up three fingers for effect. "One..."
"Ooh, scary." taunted Kiegan, her smug smile plastered on her face.
"Two..."
"You really are counting down on your fingers like I'm a child?"
"Three!" screamed Kate angrily.
Kiegan was looking down at her nails passively, then looked up at Kate like she didn't know that she was there.
"Oh, I'm sorry, were you saying something?" she asked, acting casual, but on the inside she was laughing like crazy.
"You stupid little bitch!" roared Kate before lunging.
And there's your preview :p
