Author's note: Sorry I haven't updated lately I have been crazy busy, school started and I have had a ton to do! This is where the differences in this version and the one in 3 stories for Readers start. I tweaked the scene just a little to make the drama build a bit slower. That way when everything does get revealed it will be way more intense!!! Also I don't own The Covenant or any of its characters.

Chapter 4

Sky threw on her uniform and quickly fixed her hair and makeup. A knock sounded loudly on her door. Sky sighed loudly and threw the door open. A tall boy with brown hair and blue eyes stood on the other side.

Sky raised her eyebrows curiously. "Can I help you?" Sky asked quickly.

"Hi, are you Skylar Brian," the boy replied.

"Yeah, it's Sky though. No one calls me Skylar," Sky said extending her hand. "And you are?"

"Oh, I'm Tyler Simms. The Provost asked me to show you around the school and help you find your classes today," Tyler said before shaking her hand.

Sky smiled at him easily. "It's nice to meet you Tyler. Where are we starting?" Sky asked.

"How about the dining hall?" Tyler suggested.

"Sounds good, I could use some breakfast after the morning I've had," Sky replied darkly.

"You want to talk about it," Tyler asked softly.

"It's not a big deal. Some girls saw this guy coming out of my room this morning and automatically assumed that I was some slut and we had done it," Sky explained. "Are all the girls here like that?"

"What jealous gossips? Yeah pretty much," Tyler replied. "So what was he doing in your room then? I'm sorry that's none of my business."

Tyler turned bright pink as Sky laughed. "No it's ok. I was dating him but we broke up yesterday. He didn't think I meant it and wanted me to take him back," Sky said carefully. "I wouldn't though. He is a terrible boyfriend. We dated for six months and he never introduced me to his best friends. I don't even know their names."

Tyler raised his eyebrows in surprise. This guy sounded a lot like Reid. "So who is this guy? How did you two meet?" Tyler asked trying not to pry but failing.

"We met over the summer at a party. I knew I shouldn't get involved with him but I did anyway. The draw of the bad boy I guess," Sky said with a roll of her eyes. "I would really like to forget he ever existed."

Tyler nodded quickly and smiled reassuringly at her. "Most of the guys here aren't like that. I'm sure you'll find someone to replace him with soon. I mean if that's what you want to do not that you have to," Tyler said scrambling to maintain his cool.

Sky smiled at him and pushed open the large wooden door in front of them. "I guess this is the dining hall," she said taking in all the uniformed students eating. All the heads had shifted toward the door to get a look at the new girl with the youngest Son of Ipswich. "What are they all staring at?"

"Um, they're staring at you," Tyler whispered. "I should have told you. People make a big deal about who I hang out with because I'm a son of Ipswich. Sorry."

Sky blinked repeatedly and glanced at Tyler. "You're a son of Ipswich?" Sky whispered.

"Yeah why is that a problem?" Tyler asked.

Sky glanced around the dining hall and saw that people had turned back to their food. Apparently, she wasn't as interesting as they had all thought. "No, it's not a big deal. Sorry I didn't mean to freak on you. It's just…," Sky trailed off, blushing crimson. "Nothing never mind."

"It doesn't sound like nothing," Tyler pointed out.

"No really forget about it," Sky replied. "So this is the dining hall?"

"Yeah it is," Tyler said slowly. He was really confused about her reaction to him being a son. She was new though, how much could she know? Of course Chase had been new too and he had known way to much about them. "You're a senior right?"

"Yeah I am, I don't know why my dad made us transfer now," Sky whined.

"Us," Tyler asked.

"I have a twin named Austin. His dorm is actually right across the hall from mine," Sky explained.

"That's cool though, I don't have any siblings. Well my friends Caleb, Pogue, and Reid are like my brothers but its not the same thing," Tyler said. He noticed the way she stiffened when he said his friends' names. Something was definitely up with her.

The bell rang loudly causing Sky to jump. "Where to next," she asked quickly. She handed Tyler her schedule so he could lead the way.
