Chapter 1:
I'm a fairy. Yes, not your run-of-the-mill dragonfly wings kind, but the handsome, supernatural, impossibly fast, immortal, beautiful, intelligent, graceful, powerful... (it's probably time to stop now) way. My name is Aldric, and that means Old King. I am the prince of fairies. We gain our power from the people who believe in us, and we feed on their fears and grant their wishes. A fair trade, if you ask me. And one day I'll be King, once my mother decides to force me to wear the tiara and wings. However, I'll ditch them soon enough. Fairy rulers are usually Queens, and I'm the only child mother has.
I have perfectly tousled bronze hair, stormy gray eyes that seem to change colour, tall, dark, and handsome. I am simply gorgeous, and unbelievable. But I don't want to be a fairy. Well, not just because I'm failing the "feminine" fairy magics, but because being the best human is far better than a mediocre fairy. With my abilities, I could be anything among mortals.
Which was why I chose to enroll in high school. And take up biology. Because, hey, in books, everything happens in a lab. And in high school, there's babes!
However, my partner does not seem to be very responsive. She's listening to her ipod and ignoring me! Me! Can you believe it? Is it because I'm acting standoffish? But that's how guys are supposed to act! I have no idea and I'm just following the books anyway.
I tapped on her shoulder. "What's your name?"
"What do you want?" she asked irritably. She's unremarkable looking. I'm not sure if her hair is red with black highlights or black with red highlights, and she's got brownish eyes. That's all.
I pouted. "I can't believe you're my partner. What do I call you?"
"Haunt."
"Excuse me?"
"Last name, duh."
What kind of last name is that, Haunt? Well, I can't believe a human girl can be so insolent to me! "I'm Aldric," I said charmingly.
"Last name?"
"Uh..." Good one, let me think... "Point!"
"Alright, Point, the point is, stop talking and let me do the work."
"I'm so sorry! Haunt, don't be rude. Hi Aldric, I'm Chelris," a beautiful, hot, gorgeous, girl with blonde hair and green eyes stared at me. "I'm Haunt's best friend." She whispered to me: "Don't worry, she's something of a feminist. That's because she's good at everything."
Oh really? I bet I'm better. I'll change her mind, you'll see. "Like what?"
"Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Japanese, English for instance," Chelris rattled off.
"Is there anything she's not good at?" I asked.
"Literature and History, thankfully."
I sighed with relief. I shall beat her in that.
"That's enough, Ms Lost. Ms Haunt and Mr Point, I expect the three of you to go for detention, disrupting my class like that!" The strict biology professor said.
I signed. Unbelievable. No one likes me.
