*I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE CHARACTERS IN THIS STORY! Okay, so I own the nanny, their brother, their adoptive parents, Alec's teacher, etc. But pretty much the characters belong to Stephenie Meyer. Btw, I've decided that even thought we all know how amazing she is already, Jane and Alec are truly some of the most amazing characters I've ever read about. I mean, only the most amazing writer (Stephenie Meyer….duh!) could come up with an idea like them. Anyways on with the story. *

Chapter Two: Teaching Pain

8 years later (their thirteen now)

Jane stared out the window at the rain, curling her dress around her knees. A smirk played on her lips, as she felt her tutor's frustration fill the room. Recently, her adoptive parents decided that maybe if they separate the twins, that it would be better. Alec went off to school with their older brother and Jane was stuck at home with a private tutor. They had tried to send her to a finishing school, but no one would take her. Unfortunately, her reputation had spread around a bit. Jane tapped her foot against the wall. She wished she could just look down and see her twin walking towards the door. She sighed loudly, causing her tutor to close the book.

"Miss Jane, if you insist on ignoring your lessons why don't we just cancel the lesson."

Jane turned to her tutor with pretend shock on her face. As much as she wanted to cancel the lesson, then she would have nothing to distract her from missing Alec. And as much as she hated her tutor, she'd rather listen to him drone on then sit in silence.

"Why, my dear teacher, what makes you think I'm ignoring my lessons?"

The tutor rolled his eyes. She was an adorable little girl and she knew it. The first time he came to teach her, he had heard her and her twin yelling downstairs.

"You can't make me go away!" Alec had yelled. "I won't do it. I want to stay here with Jane."

"Please, let him stay." Jane begged. He had been shocked at how calm her voice was. Anger dripping from it.

"Ch-Children," their parents had started, "It's time for you two to split up."

Jane's anger had grown after that, "If this is about the last tutor, we're sorry ok. But if you don't let Alec stay, you'll regret it."

At first he had thought she was just a spoilt brat. But he had soon learned that she was so much more. After he overheard the fight, He listened as his pupil stomped up the stairs. When she appeared, he caught his breath. Her light brown hair touched slightly against her back, and she had big brown eyes to match. The sun hit her hair as she walked by the window, causing her to look like an angel. She was tiny for her age and he had automatically wondered what her brother looked like. He couldn't see why everyone was so afraid of her. Then she had opened her mouth.

"So I see no reason to learn your name. You'll be gone in a week anyway."

He had been stunned. How many tutors had these children gone through?

"Miss Jane, I plan on staying."

Jane mouth turned slightly into a smile allowing all of her teeth to show. Her eyes shadowed over and suddenly he was scared of her.

"That's what they all say."

He had been teaching her for two months now, a record for any one staying near Jane. Jane was impressed, yet slightly annoyed. She had tried everything to get him to leave to. So she could prove to her adoptive parents that even without Alec, the tutors would leave. But this one was stubborn. As if he knew that she wanted him to leave. He could actually stand up to her, somewhat at least. She sighed again.

"Since you insist on staying here as my tutor, I think I might as well learn your name."

He looked back at her shock clearly line on his face, "Demetri." (before you scream and run, Demetri is still human) His black hair rested perfectly on his temples. That little girl still made him so nervous. Jane allowed her smile to fade, in order to give him a little peace.

Alec was soaked from his head to his toe. He stood expressionless out in the rain. His teacher was trying to break him. Alec knew that and he wasn't about to give in. When the teacher had yelled at him for pushing another child, Alec had stood calmly. When the teacher had threatened to spank Alec, he didn't even blink an eye. So now he was standing in the rain, as a punishment. Alec laughed. Sure he was soaked and cold, but he would probably catch a cold (or worse) and then he could stay home with Jane and her tutor. He allowed one of Jane's classic smiles to make its way across his face. He did this because he heard the teacher coming to get him. And refused to let the teacher think he had broken Alec. The teacher had to know that Alec had broken him.

"A-Alec, why don't you come inside now?"

Alec turned to face the teacher. His dark brown hair was dripping into his brown eyes. He allowed a glare to cover his face. He wanted the teacher to think he was mad, but really he was amused that the teacher had been scared enough to put a child outside. He thought about what Jane would say if this was her instead of him.

"You'll regret this." He whispered. "One day, you'll regret this."

He shook his wet hair and walked back into the classroom. The teacher followed him nervously and ended up letting the entire class go early. If it had been any other child, the other children would make them their hero. Thanking him, and talking about how cool they were. But not for Alec. The only person who came near him was his brother, who scolded him for embarrassing the family. Before too long though, he suddenly sensed that Jane was in trouble and completely tuned his brother out. He wanted to take off and run. He resisted for a little while, but when the feeling didn't pass he took off running.

"Alec, I'm not done talking to you."

Alec rolled his eyes as his brother ran after him, yelling. Finally he reached the door and stopped. His brother stopped next to him panting. Alec looked over at him about to say something, but he heard Jane's laugh ring out.

*If you insist one coming towards me in mobs with pitchforks and torches, at least let me explain myself. It wasn't my original plan to have Demetri in the story. But then I was really confused as to why the tutor would stick around and yet still be afraid of her. So I used Demetri, but don't worry cuz I've got big plans for this Volturi guard.
