The next day at school classes flew by pretty fast. I barely focused on anything in class. I guess my attention was all on Morrigan. In our earlier classes we'd worked together, she'd often flirt with me. I couldn't help but to do the same. When she talked to her friends she made, I'd sometimes glance at her. She'd usually notice, somehow, and smile with a wink at me. We hung with each other most of the day and now we were on our way to lunch.

"If you want, we can go and sit outside, the weathers nice"

"I'm down" I replied.

I grabbed my lunch and followed Morrigan. We got outside and I sat on one side of a bench expecting her to sit on the other, instead, she sat right next to me.

I figured that

"Soo Jay, guess what?" she asked me, now crossing her legs.

"What's up?" I said, chewing on a bite of my pizza.

"I saw you check me out in class" she said smiling seductively.

I almost choked on the pizza I was eating.

"I don't know what yo-"

She covered my lips with her index finger.

"He's here"

I felt relieved that we didn't continue that situation any longer. I sighed in relief.

Phew I'm so gad whoever this is just showed up.

Morrigan looked towards me and smiled. "Oh…I'll tease you later"

As the guy walked towards me and Morrigan, I examined him.

He had long silver, spiky hair that ran just past his shoulders. He wore a long sleeve vest that was white and blue with a white T beneath it. It matched with his blue slacks he wore over his legs.

"Hello" he said as he approached us. "I'm Jonathan Talbain"

"I'm Jay Vell" I said as we shook hands as Talbain sat down in front of us.

"So Kreutz, why do you think Demitri's returned?" Morrigan asked.

"Well I have to say he sensed your soul" Talbain said, glancing at me.

"But it could be because of your plans you have for him also" Talbain added

"Plans?" I asked.

Morrigan put her hand on mine.

"Before I met you, I was looking for a strong soul I could be compatible with, one fit to be a King. I roamed the demon realm for some but none matched the one I sensed on Earth"

"That's me right?"

"Yes" Talbain replied.

"So I'm going to be a King?...Well am i?"

Morrigan tilted her head.

"I don't know yet"

That kinda disappointed me.

"That's why Demitri might be coming to kill you. He believes he shall be the next Ruler over the Makai and he thinks you're in his way" Talbain said.

I rose up from the table.

"Do you know who I am?" I said. "I'm Jay Vell. I'm not going to let some Vampire prick kill me"

"Jay" Morrigan said."Demitri is stronger than you think, you're only human, and you might not have what it takes to beat him"

I smirked.

"Only human?...Is that it? Because I'm only human. Tshh… This guy wants to kill me because he thinks I'm gonna take his crown and you don't even know yet if I have what it takes to sit on the Throne? Wow…"

I walked back into the lunchroom.

"Jay" I heard Morrigan call for me as I walked away. I kept walking and decided to head to my last class since the bell was about to ring.

I walked into class and stared out the window. Morrigan came in and sat in her seat next to me.

"Jay" Morrigan called to me.

I turned to her.

"I'm not dying…not without you seeing me take the seat to that throne and so what if I'm human, I still started having feelings for you and look at what you are"

She gave me an apologetic look.

We didn't say anything for the rest of the period. After the bell rang I immediately walked out the class and started walking home. I took some headphones out my backpack and began listening to Spacebound. Eminem's always been my favorite.

A few minutes after the song ended I took out my headphones.

Something didn't feel right.

I looked down the street to my right to see about six guys with black hoodies turn in a hurry down a street. I decided to follow them.

I hope these guys are actually about to do something. I need to relieve some stress anyway.

I jogged down the street after them.

Stick Around…
