Act Normal

The moment Aiyana stepped foot into Cladwell High she immediately knew something was wrong. A dark aura seemed to emit throughout the building, nearly choking her with it's ominous power. She hesitated inside the doorway, unsure of what she should do. Her mother told her about this sort of thing time and time again.' Act normal,' She always said. 'You never know what type of Supernatural your dealing with.' Supernatural's are the one thing Aiyana feared most. Her father told her about them before he left. He told her stories of all the horrors they can bring. He warned her about what they did to people like her as well; people who can tell the difference between their kind and normal humans. Though she never crossed paths with one, just the thought of coming across a Supernatural has haunted her dreams for as long as she can remember.

Deciding there wasn't much she could do-considering her mother would be angry with her if she ditched-she continued to make her way down she semi-crowded hallway, delving deeper into the aura as to get some hint as to who it belonged to. Despite her mothers warnings to act mormal, she wanted to make sure she stayed as far away from the Supernatural as possible. However, the closer she got to her first period class, the more she realized just how impossible that may be. As if to prove a point, the moment she stepped into the classroom the strength behind the aura grew unbearably strong. Stumbling slightly, she quickly took a seat at the far back row, nervously looking around for it's source. When her eyes landed on a boy a couple of seats away, she immediately knew it to be him. Not only has she never seen him before, there was something odd about him; the back of his neck to be more specific. Something smokey seemed to move beneath his skin, and Aiyana knew for sure that wasn't normal.

As if he could feel her gaze on him, he looked back at her, meeting blue-gray eyes with his calm green ones. Something like a shock wave seemed to go through her, and she quickly looked away, blushing furiously. How humiliating! She thought to herself, mentally chastising herself for staring. The squeel of a chair scrapping on the floor caught her attention, and she looked up just in time to see him approach. Act normal, act normal, act normal, she chanted to herself, trying to appear at ease when the truth was her mind was in total havoc. This was so not how Aiyana thought her sophmore year would be.

"Hello," He said as he took the spot in front of her. "Why were you looking at me?" His silky tone did nothing to conceal the sharpness in his voice. He obviously was not nice, and that fact only made Aiyana all the more nervous. RUN! Her irrational side screamed. He's going to KILL YOU! The thought did nothing to calm her already frazzled nerves. She couldn't have moved even if she tried. Aiyana was stuck to her seat, fear coursing through her as the strange boy stared impatiently into her eyes. It was as if he were looking right through her, peering deep into her very core. It was not a pleasant feeling. He raised a pale brow, a smirk forming on his lips.

"Whats wrong, sweetheart? Cat got your tongue?" He questioned. Aiyana wanted to slap him. She really did, however with the tought of all the horrible tortures he could put her through fresh on her mind, she refrained. Instead she blushed like any other girl would while being faced with a handsome guy such as he was.

"I... I just never seen you around before is all," She said, looking down at her desk in 'embarrasment.' Really she just couldn't handle the intensity in his gaze. He leaned back slightly, studying her carefully, before nodding.

"Yes, that does tend to happen when the one you are staring at happens to be a new student. The names Corbin Verbeck, by the way," He said almost boredly, running a hand through his short blond hair. Aiyana couldn't help but compare him to one of those greek statues her mother was so interested in. He ws the emblem of perfection. To bad his additude messed him up.

"Aiyana Middleton," She replied. The classroom was partially full with other students by now, the tardy bell already rung. Aiyana made a point to pull a journal and pen out of her satchel, hoping he would get the hint and leave her alone. She set to work on her sketch, allowing her mind to wonder as she drew to her hearts content. Time seemed to fly from there, she didn't notice when the teacher came and and introduced himself and explain the ways of his class, didn't notice the other students talking, wasn't aware of the green eyes boreing into her; her mind was set on ther drawing. She was never sure of what she was drawing until it was complete. The only thing that brought her back to reality was the dismissal bell, only then did she realize what it was she was working so intently on.

Aiyana froze as she gazed down at the person on the paper. It was like a mirrior image; slicked back hair, wide eyes, sharp features, full lips, strong jaw structure. It was obvious who the person on the paper was, and frighteningly so. The person in question smirked, looking to the paper and back to her.

"I must say, Aiyana. That is bound to be the best drawing I have ever seen of myself," Corbin commented. "And if I didn't know better-"He pointed to the back of the drawings neck"-It would appear you know more about me than you let on, sweetheart." Aiyana had a sinking feeling in her stomach, the type of feeling she gets when something is about to go horribly wrong. Corbin smiled, his eyes flashing red, but thats not all that caught her attention. Corbin had fangs. Real fangs. She suddently felt like fainting.

"I'll be seeing you soon," He promised, before turning and walking away. Aiyana was beyond scared at this point. She had just came across her first Supernatural, and discovered he was a jerk. Not only did it end there, he knew what she was as well. He was going to kill her. Really kill her. Aiyana sunk down in her seat at the revelation. It was just her luck she would come across a vampire on her first day of school.
