Chapter2
Disclaimer: I don't own HoN or a midsummer night's dream
Before they saw me I hid behind a wall. "How and when did you get here?" I heard Erik ask. "Well I got transferred from the New York House of Night and me and my brother got here yesterday at 8 am. I can't believe you forgot you pretend sister AND turned into a full grown vampire!" She responded. As this being my first time hearing her voice I was quite shocked. It was sweet yet sassy, cute, but not too cute. "Well you aren't the only person shocked."- For a second I thought he was talking to me. –"Your hair got longer, WAY longer." When the girl said "pretend sister" I thought possibly nothings going on between them. Possibly. "Well since you're the first person in here you can pick a seat, any seat." He said warmly "'Kay teach." She said giggling "Its weird calling you teach when I'm your sister." Erik chuckled, something he barely does around me. "It's weird for me too and its mister teach to you." He said "Yes sir." she said with a smile in her voice. I am so uncomfortable just standing there listening. Then they stop talking. So I went inside before they talked anymore. I didn't think my heart could handle it. That was a mistake.
"Zoey." Erik greeted me in a strained, Expressionless voice. "Um hi Erik." I said my voice barely above a whisper. The black haired girl stood up and shook her hand with mine. "Hi I'm Deana–Jane Clover but you can call me D.J." she said with a warm smile on her face. "I'm Zoey Redbird it's so nice to meet you." I said with a warm smile of my own. "Ok kids take your seats." Erik said. D.J. shot him a mean glare but he showed no fear I on the other hand was looking down, nervous. "Go." He said with a little playfulness in his voice, obviously not for me. She went back to her seat sitting in the fourth row. I sat on the last row nervous as ever "Um Zoey you have to sit in your assigned seat." Oh heck it was on the second row near the alley. Be brave I told myself internally and I sat there. Nervous as I'll ever be.
The class started to fill up. When the class was full we settled down. "Okay class we have a new student joining us from the New York House of Night." I looked back at D.J. and she was sinking into her seat, glaring at Erik. "Deana-Jane Clover would you please raise your hand?" She raised her hand and said "I prefer D.J. thank you very much." With a sassy-polite voice. "Class say 'hi' to D.J." "Hi D.J." we said. She sunk lower in her seat. Erik laughed "Okay today we will work on a scene from a midsummer night's dream. D.J. since you're new why don't you play Hermia and I Lysander?" "Whatever." She said then on her way up the stage she mouthed "I hate you." Erik smiled in response. I was beyond confused. Why would he embarrass her like that? Maybe she's an actress. But if she was an actress she would have been fearless. Something felt backwards… Erik gave D.J. the script and got in character. He was no longer Erik Night for long. He was Lysander trying to keep his love, Hermia the beautiful girl that's got the hearts of most guys who walk her way or vice versa ( which perfectly fits with D.J. in my opinion ). D.J. was not that bad getting into character. But hey in my opinion she really just needed to be herself, again no homo not that there's anything wrong with that… "How now my love!"- it took all my self-control not to jump up there and use fire to burn all that pretty girl hair off after he said 'my love'- "Why is your cheek so pale? How chance the roses there do fade fast?" Erik started off. "Belike for want of rain, which I could well. Beteem them from the tempest of my eyes." She said gracefully and flawlessly, right now she kind of reminds me of a girl version of Edward Cullen from Twilight. Doing everything flawlessly like there's nothing she cant do AND she can look good doing it. Man Bella how can you live with him!?! ( A/N:for Brianna's benefit lol ) Maybe she is an actress. Or just multi talented like Edward. I don't know but it was sure making me jealous as hell!"Ay me! for aught that I could ever read, Could ever hear by tale or history, The course of true love never did run smooth; But, either it was different in blood,-" Erik said with passion. Why did I have to mess us up? Oh yeah because im a total a- "O cross! Too high to be enthrall'd to low." D.J. said interrupting my thoughts. How dare she! Erik came and said "Or else misgraffed in respect of years,-" "O spite! too old to be engaged to young." Said a, slightly blushing D.J. I could feel the awkwardness in the room… "Or else it stood upon the choice of friends,--" Erik said no other emotion playing on his face beside the fake love for Hermia or was it fake? I'm tearing myself down with all of these "what if ?" questions! Bit what if its true… "O hell! to choose love by another's eyes."
Then they both stopped and Erik bowed whilst D.J. just looked like she didn't know what else to do. ( An imperfection, finally! ) The class erupted in cheers, yeppers everyone except me. Then I swear erik took a look at me that said "I know your jealous Zoey" and I cant lie I was.
