Chapter 1: Star Crossed

McCorrigan Mansion

Today was the day.

Bo groaned as her alarm clocked blared in her ear. Today was the first day of her senior year of High School. She wasn't that trilled to be honest, mostly because this year was going to change her life. And not in the way she wanted. Bo was turning eighteen years old in six months.

For any normal teenager it would mean a little more freedom than they were used to due to them reaching adolescents. But for Bo it meant something different, the day Bo turns 18 she will be forced to make a choice that will dictate the rest of her ageless life on this earth.

The Fae world was a very complex community. They had their rules that had to be enforced and followed. Anyone who broke those rules were either killed or imprisoned for treason.

Bo hated these rules, and she hated the Fae world. She even hated her family sometimes. They knew how she hated the burden of being Fae. On her birthday she would have to attend her gathering, and in her gathering she would have to choose whether she would join the Light or the Dark.

With most families, the choice comes naturally to those who have their gathering. But for Bo it would be less than easy, most of her family were Light. But her father, with whom she has never met in her life is supposedly dark. She had both clans running through her veins.

But it wasn't the choice itself that she was struggling with, it was the fact that she had to choose at all.

She didn't want to be bound to one side for the rest of her life. She wanted to be free, being a teenager in the Fae world was probably the one and only time that you would ever have that. After the gathering, your freedom is taken from you. Bo didn't want that to happen.

But it didn't seem like she had much of a choice at this point. So for now, she was going to get up. Take a shower, get ready and head to school.

The brunette rose from her bed, swinging her legs over the side and getting to her feet. As soon as she hit the snooze button on her alarm clock, Bo headed for her adjoining bathroom. Her family home was very big, more like a mansion really. Her family was a big deal in the Fae world, Bo's grandfather was Fitzpatrick McCorrigan.

Although, he had lived a simpler life now he used to be known as the almighty Blood King. He was the reason that people like Bo had to choose Light or Dark. Another reason why people expected more from her. She was his eldest granddaughter, and she was expected to choose Light just like her Mother before her.

Although, her conception was illegal. Bo's mother Aife, had an affair with a Dark Fae King from a rival clan. Or so she explained. Once Trick found out about his daughter's betrayal, he made sure that no one ever knew of Bo's existence. Not because he was ashamed, quite the opposite in fact.

He was trying to protect her, anyone who knew of her parentage would have come after her. Bo had never met her father, her mother had told her he wanted no part in her life. It hurt her at first, but she had never met him so it was easy for her to move on.

Not long after Bo turned one, Aife met someone who took her breath away. Luther Farrow.

Luther was an old family friend and hadn't seen Aife since they were children, he admitted that he'd always had a crush on Aife. He thought it was one sided but that wasn't the case. They got married not long after they reconnected and are still very much in love.

When Bo turned two years old, Aife gave birth to another daughter. Kenzi McCorrigan, was Bo's pride and joy, she had always wanted a baby sister.

They were best friends as well as sisters.

"Bo!" Kenzi yelled, running into her sister's room. Luckily for her little sister, Bo had yet to enter the shower.

"What is it Kenz?" she opened the bathroom door, revealing that she was in nothing but her favorite red kimono.

"Mom wants to know if you need a ride to school since your car is in the shop?" the girl asked.

The brunette shook her head. "No I'm good, Dyson is giving me a ride"

Kenzi laughed jumping on her sister's bed. "How is the sexy wolf man these days?"

Bo expected that cheeky laugh from her sister. "He's fine… And before you start, we're just friends. Plus he is all bug eyed for Ciara. Which is fine, the more that I think about it the more that I see that we wouldn't have worked. We're too alike"

"Oh well, plenty of more Fae in the sea right?" Kenzi was being optimistic.

Bo laughed at her sister's statement. "Wise words baby sis, now run along I have to take a shower and get dressed"

"Okay, I can't promise that any pancakes will be left when you get downstairs though" the fifteen year old warned as she left her sister to shower in peace.

The brunette didn't expect anything less from her little sister, that girl loved her food. Turning around, Bo closed the bathroom door and quickly hopped into the shower.

Mandrake High School (1 Hour Later)

Lauren was always early for school. Every year that never changed. She liked being the first one there, she liked being the smart girl. And smart she was, she was a genius. But her big brain wasn't the only thing that made her special, Lauren was part of a rare species of creatures.

Not Fae in particular, but something else.

Lauren was an Angel, and because of that her family was treated differently. The Fae didn't like the fact that there was another race superior to them. And Angels were in fact superior, how could they not be?

Not everyone saw the Angels as a threat. A perfect example was Lauren's best friend, Ciara. She came from a family of Fairies. Ciara didn't see Lauren as anything more than just her friend. And neither did her family, their Fathers were actually quite close.

Lauren was excited about her first day of senior year, it was the beginning of the rest of her life. After school came college, and after that came her dream job. Since she was a little girl, Lauren had always wanted to become a Doctor. She liked the idea of helping people, healing them and saving lives.

Just one more year, and she would be starting her life.

She walked through the hallways of the school, making a beeline for her locker. Once she had entered the combination she quickly gathered the books that she needed for her first class. Science, her favorite subject.

"Remind me why I agreed to come in this early?"

Lauren heard someone speak from beside her. Closing the door of her locker, the person came into view. "Because you already have to re-do your senior year. And being on time, might actually help you gain some points" she addressed her older sister, Tamsin.

The older Angel was a rebellious teenager. Although, she was close to turning nineteen. But thanks to her lack of concentration last year she wasn't allowed to graduate and had to do her senior year all over again. She wasn't happy.

"Fine, so what class do I have first?" Tamsin asked, the taller blonde was just as smart as her little sister. It's just that she lacked the capacity to care. Going to college and having a brilliant job didn't interest her that much. She just wanted to live her life on her own terms. What was so wrong with that?

"We…. Have Science. Well, I have biology but you have physics" Lauren smiled.

Tamsin made a face. "Urghh! Great, another year of Mr. Pit stains. Seriously dude, take a shower!" she loathed that man so much.

The younger blonde laughed. "That's not his name T"

"It is to me. Since we are early, you wanna get some coffee? The only way that I'm going to get through this repeat is if I'm highly caffeinated… or stoned" Tamsin was half serious.

Lauren smiled with a nod. "Sure, let's go" the two sisters made their way to the cafeteria. Mandrake High was a fairly modernized school. It wasn't like most of the boring plain public schools you would see. They had a game room that was only for the seniors and a small café and juice bar. So yeah, it was a good school.

Bo and Kenzi were just making their way through the doors of the school with their friend's Dyson and Hale.

Dyson and Hale were both on the football team, while Bo herself was a cheerleader. The brunette wasn't really good at the whole studying thing, but she realised that she had a knack for cheering. And if her grades didn't improve enough for college then she could always get in on a cheerleading scholarship.

Even though Kenzi was two years younger than her sister, she always hung around with Bo and her friends at lunch. She fit right in. "What class do you have first?" Kenzi asked her sister.

The brunette checked her timetable, "Uh… Science. Not my best subject" she groaned. It really wasn't.

"You'll be fine, who knows maybe this year will be the year that you turn your grades around" Kenzi knew that her sister wasn't that good at achieving good grades, not because she wasn't smart just because she didn't retain information well.

"I dunno about that Kenz, but I'll see you at lunch okay?" Bo gave her sister a kiss on her head and waved her off.

"Love you" the fifteen year old said.

"Love you too, now go before you're late" Bo ordered. The brunette quickly made her way to her locker, opening it and putting her things away.

"Hey Bo?"

She turned to see Dyson's smiling face. "What's up?"

The football captain leaned his shoulder against one of the lockers. "I was wondering if you could put in a good word for me with Ciara. Please?" he hoped.

She knew that this was coming. "I'll do my best, but ultimately she's her own person. It's her choice" she wasn't going to trick Ciara into going out with him.

"That's cool, just tell her how awesome I am" he laughed.

"Don't worry D. I'll talk you up real good. This has been fun, but I gotta go" Bo closed her locker and tapped Dyson on the shoulder before heading to her first class.

Just as she was about to reach the class room door, Bo bumped into someone and dropped her books on the floor. "Oh god, I'm so sorry I wasn't looking" she apologized, grabbing her books.

"Don't worry about it" the girl said.

Looking up, Bo felt like she had the wind knocked out of her. She couldn't get her bearings as she looked into the most beautiful honey colored eyes that she had ever seen in her life. "Uh… Sorry I uh… Didn't mean to—"

Lauren stopped her with a hand in the air. "It's okay… It was an accident" Both girls got to their feet, still not taking their eyes off of each other.

Bo knew who Lauren was, and more importantly what she was. Her kind was considered an abomination in the Fae world. Bo didn't see why that was though. They were just like the rest of them.

A family trying to live their lives in this world. There was nothing wrong with that.

She had always seen Lauren passing in the hallways but she had never spoken to her. They didn't have any classes together but now they did. Was this going to be a problem?

Lauren was just as flustered. She had never noticed how stunning Bo was, they had never really been in each other's company before now. Lauren looked down to her books, noticing she had Bo's notebook. "I think that this is yours" she handed it to the girl.

"Oh, thanks. Well, I guess we should get in there huh?" Bo chuckled, taking it from the blonde.

The blonde nodded. "Yeah, I guess that we should… After you" she gestured to the door.

"Thanks" the brunette flashed her a smile, then walked into the class room.

"What are you doing?"

Lauren almost had a heart attack, "Jesus! Tamsin, what the hell?" the girl placed a hand on her chest trying to catch her breath.

"Never mind that. What the hell was that?" Tamsin asked.

The younger blonde frowned not knowing what her sister was talking about. "What was what?"

Tamsin nodded to the class room door. "You and the Fae girl"

Lauren let out a tired sigh, she didn't need this right now. "Grow up Tamsin. We're all the same" she didn't see why the Fae and her own kind hated each other. So what if they had a little more power than them, they were all just trying to live their lives.

The older blonde grabbed her sister's arm to turn her back around. "No Lauren, we're not. They are not like us, and they never will be. Just watch yourself okay?" she was just trying to protect her little sister form harm.

"Promise… Can I go now?" the young Angel waited for her sister's approval. She wasn't mad at her, Tamsin was just looking out for her.

"Sure, I'll see you at lunch" Tamsin walked away.

Lauren entered the class room and quickly took a seat at one of the desks in the back. She liked sitting in the back.

"Lauren!" Ciara ran over to her best friend with a smile, then took a seat next to her. They always sat together in whatever class that they had.

"Hey, what's with the smile?" Lauren asked.

Ciara hung her mouth open. "Seriously? Come on Lo, it's our senior year! This is the beginning of the rest of our lives" the fairy had a thick British accent, her family had moved here when she was a freshman. But she loved it here.

The Angel shrugged. "I suppose that it is. So what do you have in mind for the future Miss. Head Cheerleader?"

The Fairy waved her hand. "Forget about the future, I am all about College. Sorority parties, dorm parties, beach parties…." Ciara gushed.

"So basically… Any kind of party?" Lauren laughed.

"Sure, you're laughing now but when you're having the time of your life in College you're going to agree with me" Ciara took her books out of her bag.

The Angel nodded, "Sure I will" As she sat there she couldn't help but notice that Bo was glancing at her. The thing that made her smile was that every time Lauren looked in her direction, Bo turned her head away fast hoping not to be seen. It wasn't working for her.

Everyone fell silent as their science teacher made her way into the room. "Good morning everyone. I'm betting that you're all happy about this being your final year?" she asked. Everyone cheered. Mrs. Holden was one of the coolest teachers you would have in this school.

She was younger than most of the other faculty members which meant that she understood the student's humor more than the others. "Okay, let's get started then shall we? Everyone open up your text books to page ten. Our topic for this week is Genetics" the woman made some notes on the whiteboard.

"Mind if I copy your answers?" Ciara whispered in Lauren's ear.

Lauren laughed turning the pages in her book. "Very much"

Bo was having trouble reading her book, mostly because it was showing her a bunch of words that she didn't understand. But also, she couldn't stop turning her gaze to Lauren. She made a mental note to talk to Ciara at cheerleading practice later. She needed to know more about this girl.

Cafeteria (3 Hours Later)

Bo was so happy to have the hour break of Lunch. It was only the first day and she was already overwhelmed by school work. The brunette sat down at the usual table that she and her friend's would usually sit at.

Even though she was a cheerleader, she never sat with her other cheer mates. Come to think of it, none of the cheerleaders sat together. It wasn't much of a clique thing, they all had their own lives outside of the squad.

Ciara always sat with Lauren and some other people who she didn't know. Bo knew that Ciara and Lauren were good friends, but until now she had never asked about her. Maybe they were destined to bump into each other?

She laughed inside her head. Destined? She didn't believe in that sort of stuff. The talk of prophecies and fate always made the brunette laugh. It was so predictable. But there was plenty of that going on in the Fae world as it is, she didn't need it in her own personal life too.

Although, she couldn't help but think of the consequences of this new situation. There was something about Lauren that made Bo want to know more, see more. If Bo made it her mission to talk to her, then she knew her family would be less than impressed. Especially her grandparents.

Angels were not meant to be associated with Fae. Bo never knew why her grandfather hated them so much, she never cared to ask.

But it dawned on her that she might need to find out now. Especially if she wanted to do something about this feeling that she felt towards the blonde.

"You look deep in thought" Dyson came over to take a seat next to the brunette.

"What? Oh yeah, it's nothing" she smiled, playing with her food.

"Did you talk to her yet?" the boy asked excitedly.

She shook her head. "No, but I have cheer practice in a bit so I'll talk to her then" Bo assured him.

"Okay. I really appreciate this by the way. It's not weird for you is it?" Dyson wondered.

When they were Juniors, Bo and Dyson dated for a while. But it was mostly attraction than anything else. There was no real spark between them, so they ended it and promised to stay friends. And they were, best friends.

"Not at all. I think it's good that you find someone. And Ciara is really great" It didn't bother Bo at all.

He was glad. "Okay good, I just wanted to check. And hey, if there's ever anyone that I can talk you up to then let me know" he nodded.

Bo chuckled, turning her gaze to the angelic blonde at other end of the room who was laughing with her friends. "Thanks… But I'm good" she watched her.

Lauren could feel Bo's eyes on her. But again, as she looked to her the brunette turned away. Maybe Ciara would know what her deal was. "Hey?" she called to her friend. "What is up with that girl? She keeps staring at me" she felt weird.

"Who Bo? Nothing, she's cool. One of my best girls on the squad" Ciara said.

So Bo was cool and she was a good cheerleader, Lauren was going to need more than that. "She's Fae though, right?" Lauren whispered to Ciara, just in case any of their human friends were listening.

"Yeah, but I don't know what. We don't really advertise it…" Ciara chuckled. "… Why do you want to know about her anyway?" the fairy added.

"No reason, I bumped into her this morning. I was just a little curious I guess" Lauren answered, looking over to the brunette who was now laughing with her friends.

Cheerleading Practice (2 Hours Later)

Bo was happy for the distraction of cheering for the hour. She had more than enough brain work for one day. Once she changed into her uniform the brunette quickly ran over to Ciara. Dyson was only going to keep pestering her if she didn't ask for him. "Hey Ciara" Bo smiled.

"Hey! Ready for the new year?" the fairy asked.

The brunette gave a firm nod. "Like you wouldn't believe. Can I talk to you for a sec?" she had to do this now.

"Sure, is this about Lauren?" Ciara wondered.

Bo's expression dropped. "Uh no. Why?" she asked. Why would she think that it was about Lauren?

The fairy shrugged. "No reason, she just mentioned that you have been… Stealing looks at her all day. Sorry, she tells me everything" she smiled sheepishly. They were best friends, what did she expect?

The brunette understood that. "No, it's okay. That's what best friends are for right? Did she say anything else about me?" she was curious to know now.

Ciara shook her head. "Not really, she just wanted to know why you were staring at her" the fairy explained.

"Oh, that…." Bo trailed off looking away.

"You like her!" the fairy pointed at her face, seeing Bo's reaction to her statement.

"Don't be ridiculous. I hardly know her, it's just that ever since I ran into her this morning… I can't seem to get her out of my head" Bo smiled.

Ciara was loving this. "I get it, what's not to like? Lauren is a great person. But, obviously given your uh…" she started to say. But was then unsure of how to word it without it sounding discriminating.

"Faeness?" the brunette finished for her.

"Yeah, sorry. It's just I know that your grandfather doesn't like her family" Everyone knew that.

Bo sighed, this was always a problem for her. "I'm not my grandfather. I don't care about all of the Fae/Angel bullshit. I just want to get to know her" she was being genuine.

Ciara gave a mischievous smirk. "That can be arranged. Don't worry Bo, I'll handle it…" she winked. "… So what did you want to talk about?" the fairy asked.

"Oh yeah, uh my friend Dyson. He has a big crush on you. Do you think that you would ever see him like that?" Bo asked.

The Fairy shrugged looking over to where the football team were practicing. Seeing Dyson in his uniform gave her a little chill. "Maybe, he is kind of cute. Didn't you guys have a thing though? I don't want to make things awkward" she said.

Bo shook her head. "Don't worry about that, it was nothing. And also a long time ago. You won't be making anything awkward I promise"

"Okay, tell him to call me. You have my number. And I will give you Lauren's" Ciara smiled.

"You think I should call her?" the brunette was very nervous all of a sudden. She didn't know if she had the confidence for that yet.

"That's what people normally do when they like someone. They call them to ask them out" The blonde explained with a smile.

"A date? You think that she would want to?" The brunette asked.

Ciara grabbed her phone and texted Bo her best friend's number. "Call her and find out" she placed her phone back into her bag.

The brunette smiled as she felt her phone vibrate from inside her bra. It was the best place to put it. "Thanks Ciara" she was very grateful.

"Don't mention it… Now come on, we got a routine to plan" the blonde dragged Bo over to the rest of their squad mates.

Lewis Manor (Evening)

Lauren was in the middle of dinner with her family. Their dinner conversations were always lively. Her Mother Lenore and Father Damon would always end up complaining about something. Tamsin would join in later when they would ask about her day. Which left Lauren playing around with her food while everyone else argued.

She loved her family to death but sometimes she wished that she could just go out and get away from them for a night. "So Lauren, how was your day sweetie?" Lenore asked.

"Same as last year. Nothing new" Lauren took a sip of her water.

Tamsin chuckled under breath. "I wouldn't say nothing…"

"What was that Tamsin?" their Mother asked.

Lauren kicked her sister under the table, silently telling her to shut her mouth. "… Nothing Mom. Nothing at all" Tamsin faked a smile.

"May I go to my room, I have some stuff to do" the youngest angel pushed her empty plate away.

"It's the first day, how do you have stuff to do?" Tamsin asked.

"Silence Tamsin! You could learn a thing or two from your sister. There is no shame in staying ahead. You may go" Damon nodded at his daughter.

Lauren stood from her chair. "Thanks Dad" she then headed to her room.

"Can I go, I have work to do too" Tamsin batted her eyelashes.

Damon snorted. "Nice try… You will help your Mother with the cleanup" he wiped his mouth with his napkin before getting up and walking off to his study.

"Mom, come on it's been a crappy day. I just want to sleep" Tamsin pleaded with her Mother.

Lenore sighed and nodded to the stairs. "Go" that seemed to do the trick as Tamsin smiled and kissed her mother on the cheek before running upstairs.

Lauren's Bedroom

Lauren was reading over her science textbook while sitting on her bed. Tamsin was right, she didn't have to do any work now. But she liked to be prepared for anything. And honestly, she kind of liked reading about genetics. It was an interesting subject. Lauren was about to start chapter two when she heard her phone ring from her bedside table.

She looked at the number not recognizing it, but she decided to answer it anyway. "Hello?" she answered.

"Hi, is this Lauren?" the voice asked.

"Speaking. Who is this?" Lauren replied.

"Oh, it's uh Bo… Bo McCorrigan. We ran into each other this morning?"

She sounded shaky. "Oh yeah, Hi… Hope you don't mind me asking, but how did you get my number?" Lauren had to ask.

"Ciara gave it to me. Very easily, I might add" Bo laughed.

The blonde sighed into the phone. "Of course she did. So what can I do for you, Bo?" she wondered where this conversation was going.

"Umm, well this is going to sound… actually I don't know how it's gonna sound. Ever since I ran into you this morning, I can't seem to get you out of my head. So I was wondering if you maybe wanted to hang out sometime?" Bo asked.

Lauren smiled on her end, she couldn't believe that Bo was asking her out. Honestly she felt the same way, she couldn't shake the brunette from her mind either. But she knew that her Father would be less than pleased. Although she didn't really care about her Father right now. "That sounds great. How about we talk at school tomorrow, we can figure something out?" she suggested.

"I'd love that. I'll see you tomorrow… Bye" Bo sounded very happy.

"Bye" Lauren smiled hanging up the phone. She couldn't stop the grin that was plastered on her face. She just hoped that her parents would understand.

….
