Hi. Howz it going?

Rein's POV

I didn't want to go to school today... I sourly told myself as I yawned. I had a hard time with Fine last night since she was half freaking out, half trying not to kill me, and half trying to be the good sister she should be. What's worse is that this morning the news about what had happened seemed to have quickly spread. It feels like I can't go anywhere without having a picture of me in Eclipse's arms being shoved into my face. Heck, I can tell people are suspicious of me because of my blue hair. I'm just happy that my hair was out and my glasses were off. Really happy. Plus, for the first time in ever, my 'nobody' rep is actually useful.

I placed my stuff down at my desk and took my seat. I could see people glance at me every now and then, but I ignored them and began to unpack.

I honestly, really hate being the center of attention. I know that yesterday, when I yelled at "Eclipse" in front of everyone, I drew a lot of attention to myself. But that was different. I was mad, which is quite rare. I only get mad at people I know or those I'm close to (family, close friends, etc.). Otherwise, I'm usually quiet and unnoticeable and sometimes in extreme cases, a nervous wreck.

"Hey, glasses, were you by chance at the concert yesterday?" Someone suddenly asked me. I looked up, to see that a one of those prissy girls had approached me. I made sure not to look too nervous.

"Um..." I stared. But she stopped me there.

"What am I saying? I bet you didn't even know there was a concert." She laughed. Out of amusement, she shove a couple of my stuff on the floor and left. I sighed and got out of my seat to pick up my things. Same as usual. Even though I thought that, I felt lonely. But why?

"Get in your seats! It's time for me to take attendance!" The teacher shouted. I quickly gathered my things and sat in my chair. Homeroom quickly finished and period 1 began. I took notes same as usual. Barely half way into first period there was already an interruption. I was spaced out so I didn't notice until it reached my class.

"Quick, grab that kid!" A teacher shouted down the hallway. The door to our class slammed open and everyone quickly turned to the source. I looked as well and saw the familiar Shade. Oh no. This can't be good.

"Oh god this took me forever!" He dashed inside, swerving through the desks. Once he reached mine, he grabbed me by the waist, forced open the window and jumped. Woah woah woah woah woah what does he plan on doing!? I gripped his shirt tighter. I could feel the heat in my face as I watched everyone stare at me, wondering what was going on.

"Stop him quick!" The teacher shouted again. I could see the kid who sat next to me quickly get up and grab my wrist. I've never talked to him before so I didn't know what he was thinking.

"What do you think you're doing?" He said to me. I was about to reply when I saw Shade shoot him the deadliest glare ever. His grip on my wrist loosened and in the blink of an eye, I was falling to my doom from the second floor of the school. I could feel the hard impact of the ground, feeling Shade wobble a bit but then continue running out the gates and away from the school.

"Your school is freaking confusing. It took me forever just to find the second floor." He said as he finally put me down. "Hey, what's wrong?" I didn't realize I was shaking until he asked me that question.

"Are you seriously asking me that!?" I screamed at him. "You barge into my class, pick me up in front of everyone in my class, and jump out of the second story window and ask me what's wrong? Seriously?" He gave me a calmed look.

"Ok. My bad. I'm sorry." Shade said quickly. I began to walk away angrily, cleaning my glasses in the process. "Plus, I have three reasons for doing this." He gave me one finger. "Reason one, I was afraid you would avoid me if I tried to approach you like a normal person."

"You think?" I replied, making sure the irritation on my voice was audible.

"Reason two, I used force because I believed it was the best way. Also I didn't want to wait any longer to talk to you." This made me stop. I didn't turn around, knowing that I was obviously blushing.

"Ohoho..." I could hear him say.

"Oh just be quiet!" I said as I walked back up to him and stepped on his foot. He laughed. "If you think flattery will make me forgive you?" I said as I readjusted my glasses to try and hide my face. He suddenly leaned in closer.

"I wasn't lying when I said you look better with your hair out." He said with an evil smile. I blushed and turned away almost immediately.

"D-Didn't you say you have a third reason?" I asked nervously. "What was it?" He held out three fingers.

"I have a job offer." He said with a smile. "I officially decided this yesterday." I slightly turned my head so I could see him.

"What is it?"

"I want you to be my manager!" I froze, processing the information.

"Don't you already have one!?" I asked afterwards.

He gave me a a clueless face as he said, "Oh, I fired her. Then she quit." I shot him another irritated face. "She told me that she couldn't take me disappearing every now and then and that I was too hard to handle. Then snapped the clip board in half and left."

"Why me then?"

"Well, you have the capabilities. Plus you already know about 'Shade' and 'Eclipse' so why not?" He said. Again, I had to process this.

"So, are you saying basically that you have only ever shown Eclipse to the public? Not Shade, the moron but Eclipse the terrifying?" I questioned, surprised.

"Well, only a handful of people. Eclipse was a stage name. When I'm not him, I'm Shade." He said as bluntly as possible. I could sort of tell he was hiding something but I wasn't sure. "Well, I'll give you a week to think about it. I''m quite busy cause you know. See ya!"

"Woah wait! Wait! What if I don't want to do it?" He turned around and gave me the scariest grin I had ever seen him give.

"I'll stop funding that little book store you love." He snickered as he stuck out his tongue.

"You wouldn't..." I said with a shocked look. He waved good bye and left. I was left standing in the middle of the side walk all alone. You jerk. I thought as I began to march back to school.

Shoot, I feel liek I messed up her personality a bit. Idk y but for some reason I really want to keep Rein's personality in check. Liek, make sure it doesnt drastically change from shy to outgoing. Thtz too much character development. Anywayz yay. Black mail. =P
