I tired to find one of these and didn't so I made one, you don't like it I don't care. If you don't like what I'm writing then don't read it. It's common sence.

Ok on with the story, and yes I know how choppy it is at the beginning, but hey that's not my forte.

Dark Troubles

Chapter 1: Forbidden

They knew that they shouldn't be doing it, but they couldn't resist it. Every touch, taste, and smell was intoxicating. So what was their problem? It was one word, forbidden.

His father was the mayor of the city, and the other one's was his mortal enemy. It shouldn't have happened but they couldn't resist it.

"Jojo" one of them whispered pulling back for a brief second before continuing. Shades of green mixing once more with black and grey.

Finally both of them pulled away, their breathing quick and raspy. However, both of them froze when they heard a door slam.

"Hi kids I'm home!" Came the call, and Jojo groaned knowing what was to come.

"Sorry Jo, I don't want to leave either but if your dad found out about us…" they trailed off and then proceeded to jump off Jojo's bed.

"I know Damon he just wouldn't understand" Jojo said shaking his head sadly.

The other boy just smiled and gave his friend a quick kiss. "Don't worry about it, as long as he doesn't find out about us there's nothing to worry about."

Damon then proceeded to jump out of Jojo's window and onto a tree outside, using it as an escape.

"Hey Jojo what's up?" the boy in question slightly jumped as he heard his father burst into his room; but with the way Jojo was facing it looked like he appeared to just ignore him and keep staring out the window. The same window that his friend had just escaped out of moments earlier, leaving him to think how close they had been to getting caught.

"Yo Jojo I want to show you something awesome!" His dad said with slightly strained enthusiasm as he dragged his son out of the room and out into the hallway.

"You see this Jojo, this is awesome" Ned said while gesturing to the hallway.

As his dad began his rant about being Mayor and one of the Greats, Jojo began to think about his friend, and secret love, Damon.

In fact on more than one occasion he had thought about telling his dad about Damon, but decided against it. After all what was he supposed to say? 'Oh hi Dad, I just wanted to tell you that I'm gay. Also the guy I'm in love with is Chairman VonFrood's son.' Yeah that would go over really well.

"Isn't that great Jojo?" He heard his dad ask as he was suddenly pulled out of his thoughts.

Jojo not knowing what his dad had been talking about just shrugged and walked back to his room; or at least that was supposed to be his plan.

"Geez dad it's no point in wasting your time on him" He heard the sneer come from behind him; and lazily glancing over his shoulder he noticed it was his oldest sister, Harley McDodd.

"Now Harley that's not a nice thing to say" Ned reprimanded his oldest daughter.

"But it's true; Jojo probably doesn't even want to be Mayor!" Harley shot back.

"Now Harley you don't know that, and it's not right to tell lies about other people" the Mayor said shaking his finger at her.

"God I can't believe you're so blind!" She yelled disbelief in her eyes and voice.

"That's it young lady, I'm going to find your mother and then we are going to come back and have a long talk with you!" Ned said slightly raising his voice as he went to find his wife.

Harley watched her father run out of the hall before turning to Jojo, a fiery glare in her eyes. "I just don't get it; it's so obvious that you don't want to be Mayor, yet they still go on like you want to! You've never wanted that job; who won't they just let me have it?" she hissed out angrily.

"Maybe they don't want the next Mayor to be a brat" Jojo stated a look of indifference on his face, and boredom in his tone.

"What?!" she screamed absolutely furious.

"You heard me, unless you're deaf as well" He said, again in a bored tone.

"Jojo you are a rude, self-centered, moronic BITCH!" Harley yelled at the shorter brother.

"Harley McDodd! How dare you speak to your brother like that!" Sally said scolding her daughter.

"What but…when did you…"She said confused before casting her icy gaze on Jojo, and that's when she realized what had happened. While his face was, and had been, one of stoicism his eyes had said everything. And right now they were dancing gleefully with mischief in them.

"Come on young lady; I didn't think your dad was serious when he said that we needed to have a talk, but then again I guess there is a first time for everything." Sally said while walking over to her daughter.

"Come on, Jojo was being rude as well" Harley said stomping her foot on the ground.

"Well I didn't hear Jojo say anything bad; so how can I know your telling the truth? Come on your father is probably getting impatient." Sally said while nudging her daughter from behind and towards the direction of the kitchen, where they could see Ned standing at the doorway a frown on his face.

Harley took another quick glance at her older brother from over her shoulder to notice a smirk appear on his face for a quick second, before it was gone again.

'Jojo McDodd, I swear that you will pay for this and in the worst way possible as well. I'll make sure that mom and dad don't see you as a little angel anymore.' She thought venomously before bracing herself for the talk that was to come.

Ok well how did you like it? Just leave me a review if you thought it was good, or you can flame me because of the paring, or if you want to be uber cool you can give some constructive criticisim.
