AN: New series anyone? Yes, no, maybe so? Who cares? Anyways, this is more of a side story than a continuation. I do mention some main characters of the ORIGINAL story (that I do not own), but it leads into its own issues. First, I'd like to thank my dear friends for helping me get over my writer's block and personal problems. If you ever happen to stumble on this story, congrats! You were thanked! I'd love to hear some feedback on this story, because I feel like I screwed up on some of the details by not adding enough of the ORIGINAL story into it. I really hope you FanFic-ers like it!

Chapter 01 – New Doors Open

Chloe Pov:

"Lonely in Gorgeous" Yeah… Party Night… I'm breaking my heart, I hummed along with the tune as I pulled back my still wet hair. I quickly grabbed my brush, blow dryer, and flat iron. I plugged in the last two and brushed through my layered black hair. It sifted through the bristles easily, a sign that I had gotten rid of all of the knots. With the blow dryer set on 'high' and the temperature on 'medium', I began to dry my raven black locks. The song was coming to an end, and when it hit its last note I hummed my own song.

'Beautiful Love' was the song I had written for my first love. I had moved into Rochester with my parents on business and business alone. I had not expected to love this new home, but I did. I began to sway with the song ringing in my ears, twisting around and slanting my face to get rid of the caught hair.

Hey beautiful

You are so gorgeous

You make my heart thump wildly

When I see your shining eyes

I can't help but think

Will you be with me, tonight?

I stopped abruptly, feeling a sudden chill go down my spine. I felt a breeze blow in from the window on my right. I looked over and sure enough it was open. My crème white curtains rustled lightly and I watched as a small bird landed just outside on my windowsill. It was a small grey Tufted Titmouse; an extraordinary bird, but one not local. He was a spectacular site. Much like the first time I saw my first love…

I pulled my 'I heart mustache' tee over my head and zipped up my black skinny jeans. I grabbed my neon socks and shoes. I quickly made my way downstairs, the beige walls almost taunting me, telling me that I would never be able to escape leaving this safe haven. My heart leaped at the thought of the future. Everyone's desperate to grow up, yet I want nothing to do with it. I grabbed my lunch and put in my Kuroshitsuji bag. Locking the door, I turned and faced the bright Monday morning light.

Chloe Snow, the new girl that just transferred into Rogue Cross Academy.

As I walked down the open sidewalk I felt a pair of eyes watching me. I turned, letting my electric blue eyes scan the area behind me, looking for the culprit. I slowly turned back around, my eyes meeting a pair of golden ones. The gold eyes belonged to a tall, bronzed, brunette hunk. My lips turned up in a smile, "Leon! Don't be such a damn creeper!" He watched me silently before breaking into a huge grin.

"Sorry Snow, no can do. I missed you way too much. And now you're going to have to feel the wrath of my loneliness." Some way up the street two girls called for Leon, smiling and waving. They wore extremely short skirts and low cut tanks, showing off the tops of their breasts.

"Yeah, so lonely you had to go and find a bunch of hookers? Nice greeting dork!" He smiled and took my small into his large one. We walked together all the way to the bus-stop. During our crazy long wait (ten minutes), Leon entertained me with funny stories of all of our old friends. Some guy, who had a crush on me, tried to go out with the blonde bimbo. She dated him and dumped him the day of graduation. Then there was Laura Lee, who lived in an apartment next to Leon's, she asked a quarterback out and then was brutally attacked by the blonde bimbo. The blonde bimbo was dumped a year later and started going out with the nerd from Science Camp. Mr. Science Camp had an extensive collection of old teeth from deceased pets and test samples of rat poop. He also collected porn magazines from Korea.

"And then the garage door fell on the kid. He's been in therapy for a while now…" I laughed. Leon got to see everything. Everything I missed when my parents moved again. I left Rochester after becoming close to Leon and his cousin Reddox.

"Hey, what happened to Reddox? She still lives here?" Leon shrugged and we boarded the bus. The two 'hookers' sat two rows ahead of us. They turned to Leon. "HEY! Beautiful, you are so sexy!" My heart stopped. Holy guacamole! That sounds like their moving in on my Leon! I stared at them and they gave me the 'What a looser! Stop staring at us before I scratch your eyes out' look. Leon smiled at me again, and mouthed 'That's what you get for staring'.

We finally made it to the front gates of Rogue Cross Academy about two minutes before the bell rang for class. I gave Leon the 'really?' look. He took my hand and we both fell into a sloth-like walk. And when the bell rang for class, we continued like a few fellow classmates. Most of them were sitting and completely ignoring the fact that they were going to be late.

"Leon… I have a question. Why aren't they rushing into class like everyone else?" Leon chuckled, "Because Snow. They've got lives! C'mon. Let's ditch!" I laughed at him and began to move faster.

We finally made it to room 2-B before the doors locked. When I reached for the knob, the door swung open revealing a tall black haired tanned woman, around the age of 30. "Of course. I knew I'd find my newest student with the likes of you Mister Holt. Miss Snow, in the future I advise you steer clear of this pest. He is a worthless good for nothing piece of shi-"

"What was that old lady? You wanna fight!" Mrs. Hanley just laughed and scolded him. When Leon pestered her even more, she flat out told him to shut up. First period went by quickly, as did second, third, and fourth.

Fifth period was Drama, and I had Mrs. Neal. Leon insisted she was the best teacher on campus, and I soon found myself agreeing. Her open and enthusiastic personality made class seem… fun. When we began Improvisational games, I started to get nervous. Everyone in the class either thought it was an easy A or had taken it because they knew what they were doing. I was thrown into this pile.

"Now, a very popular game we play is 'Party Quirks'. There are four guests and one host. One at a time the guests will enter the 'party' room. That will be our stage, and as they come in the host has three chances to guess what their quirk is. Got it? Fantastic! Now the host is… Jenna! Our guests will be… Emilia, Tiara… Leon… and…" I prayed it wasn't me. When her soft hazel eyes passed right over me, I let out a sigh. She took that as a sad little sigh. And, taking the sigh the wrong way, she chose me. Should've seen that coming…

For the next hour, Leon continued to yell at our 'hostess with the mostess' Jenna. "Are you a… howler monkey?" Mrs. Neal chuckled. "No Jenna, I'm sorry but you have not paid attention to your guest… he is a?" The class chimed in yelling out things like spazz, fag, dumbass, and looser. "Nope! I'm a raging lunatic. Jeez… you guys suck!" Leon sat down and smiled at me. It was my turn and I knew if I tripped over my feet, I'd surely hurl. I made my way towards Jenna. "Hey! I'm Jenna! Who are you?"

"I…uh-uh-uh-um…? Name's a-uh-…Well, you uh- see, that I uh- um-… MY NAME IS CHLOE SNOW!" Jenna looked at me while the entire class erupted in laughter. "If Jenna can't guess this one right, then God help her!" Jenna watched me her deep blue eyes, sighed and gave up. The game ended instantly, and we all sat down and wrote out a very long reflection on the game. Thank God the bell rang!

Lunch rolled around and I was eager to get in line for food. My stomach grumbled loudly and Leon laughed at me. "You must be hungry, eh? Just think about the multiple ethnicities of the food. Mexican, Chinese, American, Italian, and so much more! You know you want it! The colorful array of sushi and the way those Panini's sizzle… Mmm Mmm! Yummy!" I socked him in the arm. But, he got me thinking. This was supposed to be a great school! That meant great food!

I walked up to the counter ready to order food out the kazoo, when my eyes met up with an ugly grey blob they called 'meat' loaf. That could not be considered meat… "Uh… Leon… What is that? And is it really moving?" Leon laughed at me again.

"You've never had school lunch till you had our school lunch. It makes more sense when you don't think about it," he said. Figures that this school would have revolting food that moves, "I think I'll stick to the vegetarian diet… What do they have on the menu?" Leon gave me a look that said It doesn't get any better… trust me. And boy was he right. My choice was ugly grey blob or smelly green slop. I was about to get sick all over the slop, not that anyone would be able to tell because it would look just the same, when there was a shout.

"Hey newbie! What's up?" "Yeah, what's up Snow White?"

I looked over to my right where Tiara Bell and Emilia Moore stood. They both had big goofy grins on their faces. Leon looked at them and laughed. "Snow, those two are nothing but cackling witches. As Mrs. Hanley says, 'steer clear'." Tiara socked Leon's arm and Emilia put her arm around my shoulder.

"Yes, we are very dangerous Circle Midnight witches, from Night World. Beware of our evil!" I laughed at Emilia and Tiara. They were certainly brightening up my lunch nightmare. But, my mood soon dampened when the shouting started up again.

Two girls were glaring harshly at one another. A security guard got between the girls, but the caramel curled one lashed out at him. The guard was knocked over and he slammed into the cafeteria wall. The other one, Brianna Lewis was her name, shoved the caramel curled girl into the side of the snack machine. Molly Murdock, Brianna's best friend, snagged a plate of the green slop and threw it at one of the caramel curled girl's friends. She tumbled over a table at the force of the throw. Then, as if a something suddenly combusted, the moving grey blobs and smelly green slop were airborne. The chocolate milk spun throughout the cafeteria, splashing everyone in its way. The students used the regular low fat milk as bombs and the caffeine free sodas as grenades. Everything was a mess, and everyone made a mad dash to the double doors, fleeing the scene before they were pelted with the disgusting lunch. Finally, the security guard called for back-up and Brianna was dragged away. The caramel curled girl smiled and waved, before she too, was dragged off.

In all the commotion, I hadn't even realized that I was still in the same spot, dripping soda and slop. Blob and milk were all in my hair and I even noticed gum on my shoe. It took all of my strength not to yell at Tiara, Emilia, and Leon for using me as a human shield.

Leon ended up getting me to ditch sixth and seventh period. We walked home in silence, watching as other Rogue Cross students ditched, trying to find a way to get themselves clean again. Once again, I felt weird around Leon. As if we belonged together. But, it couldn't happen because we were only friends and nothing more.

Leon turned his golden eyes to me and just stared; I pretended he felt the same way about me too. He couldn't possibly though. It went against everything we stood for. And we stood for friends not getting all lovey dovey with each other and possibly ruining their friendship. After a moment or two of silence, he spoke.

"So, how did you like your first day of Rogue Cross?" I stared at him. How was it? How was it? It was terrible! I was slathered in food! Or whatever they call it! I was embarrassing myself thinking that maybe I could fit in at this school. Everyone has a group or a cliché. I have a few stragglers and you. And to top it off, I have every class with you, the one guy I have ever had any feelings for! You! And you don't even notice me in that way! WHY? But, instead I calmly replied, "It was cool."

As soon as I got home, I slapped the door in his face. I could not stand this anymore. I felt like Bella, Rose, Clary, Claire, Monica, and all those other girls who had weird obsessions for the their Edward, Dimitri, Jace, Shane, Michael, and other tough hot guys. I felt useless and embarrassed.

I ignored my phone the rest of the night, trying to erase all my memories of today from my mind. I clutched my 'Winnie the Pooh' plushie to my chest and pulled the neon green Snuggie closer. I let my tangled black mop of hair hit the pillow and squeezed my eyes shut.

All that night, I dreamed of Leon sneaking in my window and holding me while I slept. My imagination was so good; it felt as if he was really here.

Leon Pov:

My golden hawk eyes rested upon her body. I quickly hopped into her room unnoticed. She was snoring softly as I moved around her furniture to get closer to her. Soon, I was standing right beside her. Brushing a stray lock from her face, I slid into the bed with her. My arms automatically wrapped themselves around her body. She fit into me perfectly. Still sleeping she turned her face into my chest and I rested my chin on top of her head. With that action, Chloe nuzzled into me. I held her tighter against my chest. Hopefully, I was erasing any bad dreams from her mind and creating new pure ones. Though I didn't know what she thought of me, I knew I was completely in love with her.

One thing was clear; I Leon Holt had met my soul mate, Chloe Snow.

AN: Okay! That wasn't a total fail. That was approx. 2,644 words and counting! 4 whole pages (and the top of page 5) were filled. I've done really well for half a sheet of binder paper. My plot for this chapter was in a notebook… Ha. Anywho, I'm excited for this new series. I hope it turns out well! Wish me good luck, and please review! Those little guys make me smile even when I'm having a Chloe Snow cafeteria slop and blob moment. Thanks for reading! :D
