This is the first thing I have ever let anyone read, so please bare with me .

R&R:)

"When you first heard of them they were stories, not quite true but not absolute blasphemy. Creatures, things, which over the years turned from stories to legends and then eventually myths."

It was a normal Friday the kind of day were there was a lot of buzz about the weekend. I had to smile to my self knowing that I was of course a topic of conversation. I walked to seventh period anxious for the day to end. I waved at my "not" brother Jason . It was always a inside joke between us, of course everyone thought we might as well be twins. I had short chocolate brown hair with some blond here and there , he just had short chocolate brown hair about the same length as mine. We both had rather tanned skin seeing as I was half Spanish and he was full. The two key differences were that, Jason stood at 6'2 well I was almost 5'3 and he had soft brown eyes and I had rather boring hazel eyes that might as well have been brown. I grimaced, only two people really knew how insecure I really was and I knew better then to show anyone else. This was high school after all and nothing was like this except maybe hell it self.

I turned into biology Jason at my heels.

"dude you missed it last night, I landed my first and probably only tray flip ever." He threw his hands in the air.

"god, jay do you honestly think I care?"

He laughed and shrugged.

"uhh yeah a little."

"okay a little."

I had to smile.

I walked to the back of the class while he went to sit with his friends, we were from two totally different worlds. His friends loved him for who he was, and mine loved me because who I knew.

I grabbed a sit near the end of the row leaving one open seat in front of me, for Eliza My feather haired best friend. Just then she pranced in. Her blond hair fell to her waist and she was, of course the center of attention. She threw her knock off bag down and sighed.

The bag fell directly on my foot so I kicked it.

"Aurora, watch it that's Italian leather."

She not so gracefully leapt into her chair. I laughed.

"Eliza when will you grow up?"

"God, hopefully never wrinkles? Eww."

I laughed again. And then she gave me her look. The look that meant she did something awful. I have known Eliza since grade school we became best friends the minute we met. She had always been Barbie and I of course, was her skipper.

I sighed and decided I wanted to know.

"what'd you do?"

She smiled showing all of her teeth.

"well… you know how you and Ryan were sort of talking and he kissed Kayla last weekend at that party? You said you would never talk to him again?"

I nodded. I remembered all to well. She continued as if my face didn't change.

" well do you also remember when I told Kayla she would not ruin this for me, umm and you?"

I nodded again.

" well I called her parents and told them I was concerned with her sexual tendencies, seeing as I'm dating Zach, Ryan's older cousin. Well they freaked and she is grounded for the next six months and by that time Ryan would have forgotten that bimbo."

She laughed, and I couldn't help but smile. Eliza always looked out for me. Even if it was cruel to others.

" you didn't?"

"no big deal or anything"

She flung her hand back.

"well that was … nice of you but, I don't want to see Ryan anymore this is just as much his fault as hers. "

" oh no he feels horrible he was drunk and well it was an accident."

I ignored her and started answer the question on the bored

Is the humen race the top of the food chain?

Well duh, I thought. Loins don't have opposable thumbs.

Then he walked in He was tall but not like Jason he looked about 5'9 with golden brown hair that flipped perfectly back. His eyes were a shade of blue I had never seen. He walked with a sort of confidence that made every girl in the room look.

He spoke to the teacher briefly, and I couldn't make out the words only that he had an amazing accent. Like James bond I thought. He sat in the seat directly next to Eliza. Figures I thought.

She immediately seized the opportunity. I noticed jealous glares from other girls in the class. Haters I thought Eliza is beautiful no wonder he would sit next to her.

"Well hello, I'm Elizabeth Harris."

Eliza extended her hand.

"But you can call me Eliza."

She smiled sweetly he didn't grab her hand but nodded.

" Hello Eliza."

He spoke the words as if they were wrapped in silk.

" this is my best friend Aurora Espinoza "

He looked at me with a strange intense glance, probably wondering why Eliza hangs out with me.

" Hello" I breathed.

" hello, Aurora I'm Troy."

I looked down immediately. And just worked listening intently to Eliza flirt and invite him to the party tonight. I was relived when the bell rang. I almost ran into Jason.

"whoa, Roury what's the rush?"

"Ugh, nothing."

Eliza walked up just then.

"Oh hey bum, aurora the new guy seriously"

She put her hand up and made the crazy signal.

"So cute but no brains."

"wow, lizzie you actually found some one with less brain cells then you?"

"God BUM, stop calling me lizze we haven't even been friends since the fourth grade."

" jay Eliza stop I have an effin head ache."

They both glared but did what I asked.

"so tonight are you gonna make up with Ryan?"

" I don't know Eliza."

"well you should think fast Roury, cause that ryan jerks right there"

Jason pointed toward tall sandy blond Ryan. The quarter back form Weston high.

"aurora eliza over here"

Ryan ran toward us .

"come on give the guy a chance."

Eliza whispered before giving him a big hug.

"im outta here Roury "

"bye jay"

Ryan walked up as jason disappeared into the crowd.

"hey"

He looked down.

"hi Ryan."

" Look im so sorry I was so drunk and you left and I don't know. For give me?"

"No."

That was the last thing I wanted to do, And then eliza elbowed me. I sighed

" cause there's nothing, to forgive mistakes happen."

I shrugged and he smiled and kissed my cheek.

" besides Kayla isn't as good a kisser as you."

He winked .

"Weston high sucks, all bout Adams."

Zach yelled down the hall, he looked just like Ryan just way cuter, he was our quarter back and Eliza's man candy.

"zach baby!"

Eliza kissed him.

"sup Aurora, Ryan you guys good?"

"as always."

Ryan answered and I pasted my fake smile on face, only Jason would know the difference.

"good what fun would it be with out you?"

"None"

I said happily though this was the last place I wanted to be.

But hey this was high school.
