Thinking
"Welcome to Monster High Danni." Deuce said as we walk off toward the creepateria for lunch. "Come on let me take you to the rest of your teachers and talk to them." I nodded and followed him. He pointed out different room as well as people I might want to avoid; he told me about different teaches and how to get on their good side all of which the Toralei and the twins told me but Deuce add a few extra things. We went to the left over classes I had in the way it was given on my schedule, minus lunch. I handed them the notes written by both my mom and witch-doctor while Deuce explained why he was talking me to do it at this time. When that was all done we walked to the creepateria.
"So um anyway the mentor thing is really a way of giving new student an older sibling or in yours, and a few other, cases another sibling." I had 'asked' about what the mentor thing was about so now he was telling me.
"So you're going to be my older brother pretty much?" He chuckled a bit then thought about it and shoved his hands in his pocket.
"Yeah, I guess I am you know if that's cool with you?" I nodded, a fourth older brother is never a bad thing and Deuce isn't that bad of a guy, right? Yeah he has to be because Toralei or the twins wouldn't leave me with some they didn't trust. Plus having two in the same school is never a bad thing. We were about to enter when a male werewolf called for Deuce causing both of us to turn. The boy growled at me and started walking toward me; Deuce stood in front of me shaking his head at the whimpering wolf.
"She's related to Toralei, you can see it clear as day in her face, man she has to be evil." I flinched at his harshness of his voice as he growled out his word. My sister isn't evil she's just heavily guarded. "If it weren't for her hair and outfit they could be twins."
"I can't let you touch her I gave her sisters my word. Clawd she isn't even evil, she doesn't talk and besides even if she is related to Toralei I'm her school Big Bro. You of all people know I want a little sis and if she is the closest I get then so be it." Clawd took another step forward and Deuce pushed me gentle against the door, the same way Toralei would when she wanted me to go. Taking the hint I went in as Clawd jumped over him and at me and I ducked and rolled through the creepateria doors when Clawd him them.
"Tora." I whispered softly as the wolf got up and turned to me. Before he could take a step toward me Deuce flew in to him knocking them both down. Toralei ran over me and held me as Deuce called for two another boys to help him keep the wolf down. I felt eyes on me and looked up only to meet Howleen's graze. I inhaled deeply as my heart rate increased and my world shifted. My tail swayed lazily side to side hitting something, that plucked it, but Howleen and I kept eye contact until she blushed and looked down. I looked at Toralei who gave me a worried look then blushed when I realized what just happened. I found my mate on the first day of school and she's a werewolf not that I'm a specieist it's just Toralei in a way threated her and both her sister and brother, who most likely was the one who tried to kill me, don't like my sister very much. There was no way he, or his other sister, Clawdeen, would be OK with the fact that his sister, Howleen, is my mate.
"You did not just find your mate before me, oh my Bastet. You're lucky and we are so talking about this later." I nodded and we stood up looking over at Deuce and the boys helping him hold, "That's Clawd Wolf oldest of the Wolf pups." I nodded again still scared "Recently, two weeks ago, dumped by that vampire over there," She pointed to the pink and black haired vampire by Howleen "and blames me because I pushed her into the classroom he was in with some other girl." I frowned at his stupidity. He cheats and blames Toralei for trying to help someone out. Someone, from what I can tell, she doesn't get along with at that. She gave me a can of anchovies which I stared eating happily and slid a can of Dr. Pepper over to me as well.
"Why'd you do it?" I asked quietly while we sat at the nearest empty table as Deuce and the bull dragged Clawd out the room. She had to have a reason to it I know my sisters and I know Toralei
"I have a crush on a friend of hers. I think her friend but I never made direct eye contact and you know that's how we know for sure, though I do strongly feel her friend and I really do think she is mine." I nodded then stiffened as someone rushed over to us, "Draculaura can you please slow down?" Toralei asked as the person did slow and sat next to her.
"Sorry Toralei I just wanted to see how she was." I looked out the corner of my eye and saw Draculaura, the vampire that Toralei said dated Clawd, had sat down next to me with a shy smile.
"She's shaken but Deuce did a good job protecting her." I could hear how relieved Toralei was when she said that.
"Yeah he even got Manny to help him and we know only you, Frankie, Abby and Cleo could keep in order. Also Ghoulia at times which is a bit scarier now that I think about it." I noticed the way Draculaura said Cleo and I looked at Toralei who looked away with faint red cheeks. "So I heard your Howleen's mentor." Toralei nodded and looked over at said girl
"I almost killed Manny because he wouldn't leave her alone." She looked back shaking her head as two sets of feet fell into step coming our way. They weren't too fast or too slow, they actual sounded forced to go at the right speed.
"Hey Toralei," Toralei and Draculaura looked at Clawdeen and I tried but my eyes were drawn to Howleen who gave me a shy smile which I returned "I wanted to think you for sticking up for Meena here with Manny." I looked at Clawdeen briefly when she ruffled Howleen's curly bright orange frohawk. I looked at Howleen and noticed she look like she turned off the lights in her room, closing the curtain as well, and got dressed in whatever she touched first. I'm pretty anyone else would look crazy but Howleen pulled it off and she also didn't seem to care if anyone didn't like the way she was dress, "It really means a lot to me considering that we don't have the best past."
"Well he was way out of line with not alone what he was saying but what he was-" Toralei stopped and glanced at me when I looked at her my head tilted to the side slightly. She looked ready to say something when Doug rushed over and picked me in a tight hug
"I'll bash his skull in I swear, Dan, just give me the okay and it's done." I nodded and took in a deep breath when he let me down. "Sorry I guess I got carried away a bit, huh?" I looked up and Toralei grab his ear
"Damnit Dougey you had me thinking you were one of the other boys from Crescent that might have come for Danni." She hissed pulling the boy down to eye level and flicking his nose. The brawny wolf held his nose and whimpered under Toralei's gaze.
"I'm sorry Tora but you know how I am when it comes to Danni." He pulled me into a one armed hug flashing a big grin at Toralei "I'm the only child Danni, you and Purrsephone are the closets things to sisters I have. No offence Howleen, Clawdeen." He looked over his shoulder at them before letting me go
"None taken," Howleen said and I felt my heart skip a beat when I realized I was standing next to her.
"Hey Danni looks like your finally taller than someone." I looked at Percy as she and Mel walked over. I glanced at Howleen and noticed I was a full head taller than her, and she was wearing heels. I sat back down as the twins, Toralei and Doug sat as well. Draculaura was giggling at my mate mumbled
"Even with heels on I'll never be taller than anyone." She plopped in the seat next to me laying her head on her folded arms. Doug ruffled her hair with a closed eye smile and I glared at him.
"Hey I see Tora got you the jacket I pointed out the other day while we were hanging out with Rocco. I was thinking about getting it but Melly says brown is than black, well for me that is." He kissed Mel and I closed my eyes. I'm still getting use them being mates seeing as all they did before that was ignore the bond and fight. They didn't accept it until last week and now they can't get enough of each other. Though I did glance at my jacket and noticed it was like Doug's.
"Ah anyway Toralei I never did thank you for, uh, helping me (?) find out that Clawd was cheating on me." Howleen's head shot up and Clawdeen growled behind us, "So as a 'thank you' I would love for you and whoever else you want to bring to come to my Sweet 1600."
"You going soft on us Tora? What'll Roc and Gray say when they hear this?" Toralei punched Doug's arm which he only chuckled at.
"I'm not going soft-"
"can't become what you already are, right?"
"Put a sock in Danni, I'm only soft when the situation calls for it."
"But your fur is always soft so in a way you are soft." Doug and the others looked at the pad, as Deuce walked back in and over to away table, and laughed
"Whoa what did I miss?" He looked at the group then shook his head "Never mind." Dough stood and walked over to Deuce
"'ey Deuce what do you say we walk and talk for a bit huh?" Deuce didn't get to respond before Dough started guiding him out of the creepateria.
"Gay as all hell yet has soon-to-be four boys waiting on her hand and foot." Percy snickered watching the two boys leave
"And we thought Nefera was bad then again it's not like you abuse your power over them." Mel said "Or over Nefera. I swear she adores you more than she does Fearleading itself."
"No way! More than fearleading? The squad was like her baby when she was captain." Draculaura said lowing her voice after I flinched "You must be really special for her to love you more than fearleading."
"No she doesn't."
"She does don't listen to Dan she totally modest and selfless. And as you can tell from her hair my opposite; but that doesn't mean if you piss her off enough she won't get you back."
"Yeah worse than Toralei but I think it's because something about her draws people in and they confide in her tell her a lot about her." Mel said before looking over her shoulder "Uh Cleo's coming this way so we weren't just talking about-"
"Talking about whom?"
"Danni's snake Rattleton." I gave a small smile at my snakes name and went back to my anchovies "So Cleo is there anything we can help you with?"
"Yes there is, I need to kidnap Toralei for a second." I glanced at my sister from a curtain of black and orange striped shoulder length hair. Toralei looked so much a scared little kitten at the moment but his it quickly as she slid her anchovies over to me and got up walking off behind Cleo. The table was quiet and Clawdeen sat down next to Draculaura.
"Deeny?" Clawdeen just smiled sadly at Draculaura, "I'm sorry for what I put you throught these past months."
"Not here Lala we can talk when school is over, and after I talk to Howleen and our parents." I looked at the twins who were looking at me and shrugged
"Ooh that reminds us Danni mom said we all have to go straight home after school."
"She wants to talk to you about how school was and all that other stuff." I nodded at both the twins not really paying attention to who was talking. I was kinda worried about Toralei and the girl that might be her mate; well that as well as where the hell were Doug and Deuce.
"Hey," I looked at Howleen "What do you have next?"
"History of the Undead."
"Clawsome I do to, wanna walk together?" I nodded as Doug, Deuce, Toralei and Cleo came back in. Toralei looked as happy as she did when we got adopted if not more so. "What color is your snake?"
"Orange and black. Do you have a pet?"
"Yeah a hedgehog named Cushion. I bought her shortly after I dyed my hair because she had her own bright orange streak in her fur. She was and is the purrfect pet for me."
"I had Rattleton since I was in the pound I found his egg in the backyard when I was ten." For the rest of the lunch period Howleen and I 'talked' actually forgetting the others at the table until the bell rung. Toralei walked behind Howleen and me as we headed to our next class seeing as Deuce couldn't be with us we had Doug with us who was on his way to Study Howl. Howleen and I were still 'talking' each other but stopped when we got in class. The teacher gave us a lecture of what to expect for this year and with that the class was over quickly. Once again Howleen and I had the same class Home Ick. Doug, Mel and Deuce walked with us there, Toralei had went to the bathroom and said she'd meet us there. Howleen and I sat next to each other while Dough and Mel sat behind us, Deuce sat next to a girl with red hair and I saw Cleo in at the table in front of us. Toralei came in and sat next to Cleo just as the bell rung and the teacher stood with a smile on her face
"The person next to you will be your partner for the whole year in every assignment you that will require one. Like the one I'm giving now I hope you all don't being parents for three months."
