A/N: Awesome! 8 reviews for Chapter 1 already! Man, thanks a lot you guys and as a symbol of my appreciation, I'm going to make Chapter 2 a bit longer. Anyways, if CallOfKtulu is reading this, he must be mad as hell just by reading the chapter title alone. He's probably taking out the shotgun out of his closet by now. Hold up, somebody's on the door…

Drew0313: Dude, I wasn't expecting you to show up today…

Gun shots can be heard in the background, then a hard thud as if a body falls to the floor sounded across the room.

By the way, please review!

Chapter 2

My Chemical Romance

Next Period: Chemistry Class, Dante hates and at the same time loves this class, you can see why. Having the girl you like sit next to you has its ups and downs, and trust me, I take that from experience.

He quietly strolled across the classroom to his chair. Mary was already there, quietly going through a text book.

"Hey…" the white-haired student greeted her as he sat in his place next to her.

"Oh, hey Dante." She greeted back with a gentle smile, trailing her eyes off the book to look at him.

Just keep your cool, Dante, and everything will be okay.

"S-so what are we doing today?" he staggered a bit in his question as he was almost caught by her smile.

"I don't know, I'm checking in the textbook to find out." She replied.

Dante sat quietly, waiting for the bell to ring so that class can start and be over with. Then he noticed that the chair in front of him was empty, it was his brother's. He checked the watch to see that there's a minute left before the bell.

That's strange. Vergil is normally here by now.

Another white-haired student soon caught Dante's eye by the door.

Speak of the devil…

(This is not a reference to the fact that they are devils but just using the old saying)

His older brother walked in the room with his familiar spiked-up white hair, serious facial expression, and the death glare he always gave to anyone that dare bother him.

Yup, that's Vergil for you…Always making a big dramatic entrance and stealing my spotlight.

"You seem to be in a bad mood." Dante said to his twin who was taking the seat in front of him.

"Dante..." He responded back in a stoic manner while looking at the younger twin right in the eyes, but Dante didn't mind, he simply gave him a grin, a grin he knows his brother doesn't like very well.

"Class, take your seats." The teacher interrupted the brothers's little "bonding" moment.

"Ok, let's begin shall we…" the teacher started.

The class went on fairly quick as the teacher explained what the class was to be doing for the day. Mary, being the bright girl that she is, did almost half the work with Dante, being the slacker that he is, seldom helped. But she didn't mind, she was a workaholic so to speak. Besides, lover boy was busy staring at her almost the whole period. Good thing she didn't notice.

Vergil finished the assignment first in the class. He practically did everything, his lab partner was too afraid of him to even bother making a suggestion. Vergil gets this a lot in the high school they were in. Because everyone knows that when Vergil gives you that look, there's a 40 percent increase of the chances you'll have a heart attack in the next couple of seconds.

Yet, he's not a bully, he doesn't beat up people (but I think he could) he's just down-right scary. Nobody bothers the guy and nobody talks to him either, except for Dante however. Dante knows his brother too well, and if he was somehow afraid of him, then I think you stepped into the Twilight Zone or something.

Well, enough of Vergil's terrifying (and somehow cool) social image. Let's get back to Dante's love life, I know this is the whole reason you guys are reading this fic. But then again, I've been wrong before.

Anyways, the class ended when the bell eventually rang. As people we're stepping out of the classroom. Dante thought that he could spent a little more time with Mary just before their next class was about to start.

"Find any trouble in class today?" he tried to start a decent conversation with her in the hallways.

"Not really, I was hoping that we we're going to finish first though." She remarked.

"Oh. Sorry, I guess I should've helped a lot more, huh?" he felt a bit guilty now.

"No, it's alright. One of these days I'm going to top Vergil in our class." She said with enthusiasm.

"Yeah, that'll be great." He simply agreed with a gentle smile.

Man, she's so nice to me all the time. Maybe Conner's right, I should ask her out. C'mon Dante, just muster up a bit of courage right here, right now…

"Hey, Mary, there's something I wanted to ask you…" Dante said after taking a deep breath.

"Yeah?" she asked.

"Well…you see…I was kind of...uh…wondering…if…"

The bell suddenly rang.

"Oh, I'm going to be late," She cut him off. "My next class is all the way at the other side of campus, just tell me later okay?" she instantly bid a farewell as she ran away into the crowded halls leaving Dante hanging in disappointment.

Dante just stood there in the crowded hallway. He then looked at the school bell that was by the upper wall.

Damn it! First you save my ass from Conner, now you betray me when I was about to ask the girl I like out. Thanks a lot you damn bell. Traitor!

Then Conner popped out of nowhere.

"Hey Dante…" he greeted but he received no response.

Conner noticed that something was wrong with his best friend.

"Uh, why are you just standing in the hallway? Did somebody glue your feet to the ground or something?" he asked. Dante just let out a long sigh.

"It's nothing, dude." He finally shared some attention to the brown-haired student. "It's nothing."

After the white-haired student took one last glance on the direction Mary went, they started their stroll to their respective classes.

"So did you ask her out yet?" Conner asked along the way.

Upon hearing that question, Dante simply felt like strangling his friend.

Lucky for Conner he didn't.

A/N: Really long Chapter 2 here, ey? Well, hope you guys like it. I know Dante can be a bit OOC but I can't do anything about that right now since I need to move up the story. Sorry. Please review though.
