Is this our world?
I look in the mirror
I can't get over you
Is this our world?
Is this someone else?
Is this someone else?
I look in the mirror
And I try to see myself
My head full of terror
From the games I played so well
I try to see clearer
I try to forget the fires I started
I try to be nearer
To where you are
To where you are
Are we star-crossed lovers?
Did I really want you gone?
If I'm really a winner
Where did these demons come from?

Robbie's POV:
"Why do I agree to help you out on these shitty 'dates?'" I grumbled, making a left turn onto my block.
"Come on Rob, don't be like that." Rex chuckled. "You know the ladies love me."
"Yeah but I wish that I didn't have to be there at every single date." I whined.
"Yeah but until we find someway to reverse this curse, then you're gonna be my wingman for eternity."
I sighed, pulling into my driveway and unbuckling my seat belt. "I know Rex." I told him. "But I'm not sure that there is a way to reverse it."
"Don't worry, Rob, we'll find you a girl." Rex assured me.
"Yeah, like I'd want to get stuck with a stupid, conceited Northridge girl as my bond."
I got out of the car, and walked to the passenger side, grabbing my wooden brother out of the car, and locking my car.
"Hey they're not so bad." Rex said.
"Yeah, you're only saying that because they enjoy your shitty pick-up lines." I scoffed, fumbling around in my pockets for my house key.
"Excuse me!"
I turned around when I heard a loud voice yelling. A blonde girl wearing a light pink tank top, a dark blue skirt, and black flats was standing on the sidewalk in front of my house. Her hair was tied in a ponytail that cascaded over her right shoulder, and at her feet sat a purple suitcase, a yellow shoulder bag, and a white backpack.
"Hello!" The girl waved to me. "Can you help me?"
"Oh look a hottie." Rex whispered. "Go get him, tiger."
I rolled my eyes, and sauntered over to the girl.
"Hey, what's up?" I asked with a smile. "I'm Robbie. You need help?"
"Hey sweet thang." Rex flirted. The girl chuckled.
"Thanks." She said to Rex before turning her attention back to me. "Nice to meet you Robbie, do you think you could help me?"
"Yeah, what's the problem?" I took a closer look at the girl. It was really dark and I could barely see her face, but there was something familiar about it.
"I'm here to see my sister." She replied. "I didn't have any money, so I hitchhiked all the way here."
"Jesus, how many times?" I asked.
"Maybe uh, nine or ten times. I'm lucky none of the drivers were creeps or murderers or rapists."
She moved a bit closer, and the light coming streaming down from the streetlight lit up her face better.
She kinda looked like Cat's girlfriend. I think her name is Sam.
"Sam?" I questioned.
"Yeah!" The girl nodded. "You know my sister?"
"Yeah she's dating one of my friends." I responded. "I didn't know she had a sister. You just look like her."
"Well we are identical twins." She giggled like a schoolgirl. God, her and Sam seemed like complete opposites. "My name is Melanie. Melanie Puckett."
Tori's POV:
"So how do you know Shelby Marx?" I asked.
"We're sort of friends." Sam answered. "I got in contact with her a few days ago, and she said she wanted to meet us here after her fight tonight."
Sam, Cat, Jade, and I were waiting in Jade's car in the parking lot of a boxing place. I was in the passanger seat, Jade was in the driver's seat, and Cat and Sam were in the back. Shelby should be finishing up her match now...
"Where is she?" Jade snapped. "We've been waiting here for almost two hours."
"I can't wait!" Cat screeched. "I've never met a professional boxer before!"
Sam laughed. "Mama will hook you up, kitty cat." She poked Cat's side and she giggled.
"Oh shit there she is!" Sam yelled. "Come on Cat, let's go say hi and prepare her for her twin's arrival."
Sam and Cat nearly flew out of the car, slamming the doors behind them.
Jade turned her head to me and grinned. "So Vega." She said. "You think your sister is hot?"
I glared at her. "Cut it out Jade." I told her. "That's not funny."
"Why? I think it's hilarious." She chuckled. "Are you jealous?"
"No." I lied.
"You are so jealous of me hitting on your sister." Jade laughed.
"Stop it Jade." I pouted. "You know I hate it when you try to make me jealous. We're not even dating."
"We could be."
"What?"
"I said, 'we could be.' As in we could be dating. If you wanted to be."
I stared at her for a minute before saying, "Yeah. I'd really want that."
Jade smirked and I smiled back before kissing her. She returned the kiss and we pulled away slowly, leaving both of us smiling like idiots.
"Ya know, I should sneak in through your windows and scare you using your mirrors and drive you around more often." Jade laughed, thinking of our adventures from the past few weeks.
"Yeah. But how do you do that? I thought vampires didn't have reflections and couldn't enter a house without asking."
"Half-vamp, babe." Jade winked. "I got a few advantages and a few disadvantages full vamps and vamp hybrids don't."
I nodded, and was about to ask her another question when something caught my eye. It was what looked like a gold chain around Jade's neck.
I reached for it, taking it between my thumb and forefinger.
"What are you doing?" Jade asked me.
I pulled lightly on the gold chain a bit and pulled it out into the open. A golden half-heart pendant was slightly swinging on the chain.
"Jade..." I trailed off. "Is this your special necklace?"
"Yeah." The goth muttered. "I think you're my bond, Tori."
I blinked. "Well I'm okay with that. That means we might be together for eternity right?"
Jade nodded. "Let's just wait for yours. Then we'll find out."
I beamed and asked, "Hey were are Sam, Cat, and Shelby?"
"Let's find out." Jade suggested. We exited the car and went over to the exit of the boxing ring. There stood Sam, Cat-
And Shelby.
"Hey you three!" Jade yelled. They all turned to look at us. "What's taking so long?"
I noticed Shelby turned her attention to me, and locking her gaze onto mine. Without breaking eye contact, she leaned to the side and whispered something in Sam's ear. Sam whispered something back.
"Hey Tori." Sam said, walking over to me, pulled Shelby by her arm. "This is Shelby Marx." She turned to my er... sister. "Shelby, this is Victoria Vega, aka Tori. By the way, you're sisters."
