3 TAINTED LOVE 3
Prologue
Mike stared out the window of his car. The only sound around was the sound of rain hitting the windshield in a steady. The sky was almost black with dark clouds. It was a truly perfect day to go back to school. Or back to public school as he should say.
Mike had been home schooled ever since he was kidnapped and mailed to Scottsdale by a certain group of gothic children. Oddly, this was the exact group of people he was going to see first.
He looked at himself in the mirror. He looked the same as he did the last time he was at this school, minus the plastic fangs. After the vampire fad ended he couldn't get back into his old style. It didn't feel right on him.
He sighed and grabbed an umbrella from the glove compartment. He stepped out of the car, opened his umbrella, and walked off towards the back of the school. Where the goths were known to hang out.
He stopped dead in his tracks the moment he saw them sitting under the awning, bored expressions on their faces. He didn't know any of their real names, just the names they had given themselves.
Shadow was the youngest of the group. Razor was the only female. Ash was the tallest, his curly hair looked even more unmanageable then it did in elementary school, and Thorn. His beauty was breath taking, he looked almost feminine. The red in his hair, seem to sparkle. His eyeliner, running slightly, probably from the rain, framed his eyes perfectly and made them seems bluer.
Thorn flipped his hair, and caught a glimpse of Mike.
"Can we help you?" He asked, in a sharp tone.
"Uh, can I sit down with you?" He asked.
"No," he replied.
"Hey, aren't you the vampire kid we mailed to Scottsdale? Razor asked.
"Yeah, but I'm not a vampire any more. I want to be goth." He said.
They stared at him for a moment.
"Just get the fuck out of here." Ash said.
"No, please, I don't fit in with anyone else. I don't want to wear clothes from Gap any more." He said.
"It's not the clothes that make you goth." Thorn said. "It's your soul."
"My soul is dark." He said.
"And what is it exactly that makes your soul so dark?" Ash asked him.
"Well I was kidnapped and sent off to the worst place on Earth." He reminded them.
"That doesn't make your soul dark that just gives you an irrational fear of car trunks." Razor said. "So if that's all you have to offer then leave."
"My dad," Mike said quietly.
The others looked at him, as if silently asked him to continue.
"He left. He met some girl over the internet and now me and my mom are on our own." He looked away. He hadn't told anybody else that yet, but if it gained him friends.
"Fine," Ash said. "I say we let him in."
"I agree with Ash," Thorn added hastily.
"It couldn't do any harm." Shadow said.
All eyes were now on Razor.
"Alright, let the Fag join." she said, not really caring.
"Really? Thanks!" He practically squealed.
"But your not allowed to do things like that." Ash said.
"Oh right, sorry," He said down by Thorn, who offered him a cigarette. He took it hesitantly and Ash lit it.
He inhaled deeply before coughing.
The others rolled their eyes. Mike wasn't even going to last a week.
