Finally getting this .
Side pairings that will be mentioned but that's it.
Rei x Mariah, Kenny x Hilary, Max x Mariam.
Why do so many people hate the ReiMariah pairing? It's cute.

The navy haired teen couldn't stop grinning. Even knowing his dad was going to give him the talk in a few minutes, he was enjoying himself immensely. Even his friends appeared to be having a good time.

He saw Rei and his girlfriend Mariah, talking by the punch bowl. He frowned for a moment, even though he was officially eighteen now, his parents or grandfather wouldn't let him have any alcohol. What would one beer or sip of saki hurt anyway? It didn't seem fair considering he couldn't try that yet he could suck the living essence out of people.

He shook his head, maybe he could make his dad change his mind later.

"Hey, Tyson, great party!" He turned to see one of the people who he had known almost as long as Kenny, who was in a corner with his laptop and girlfriend, Hilary. Max Tate, a half-American half-Japanese who was smiling as wide as he was. Again, girlfriend Mariam, in tow.

"Thanks again for inviting us." Mariam implied including her brother and the other two members in their clan. Even knowing they hadn't started on the best of terms, he still included them today.

"The more the merrier right." He chuckled, unintentionally baring hIs fangs.

Before the conversation could continue, a tall man they all knew as Tyson's father, Bruce, came into view smiling casually but both Max and Mariam could see a little uneasiness in the mans eyes.

Seeing his friends faces, Tyson turned around to see his dad. "Sorry to interrupt but we need to borrow the birthday boy for a few minutes." The couple nodded their understanding.

"It's time for that talk isn't it?" Tyson asked feeling a small amunt dread in the pit of his stomach.

"Yes. Your mother and Gramps are in another room waiting." He laughed a little seeing his son's expression of disapproval. Still, it was inevitable. He received the conversation and so did his father.

"See you guys in bit then." He waved while turning around to follow his dad. Wondering what the talk could even be about. They already had the 'birds and bees' discussion years ago. It still gave him nightmares as it was gramps who did most of the explaining. He shuddered as they round one of the dojo's corners.
