"So hows school?" asked Matt as they went out to patrol. Wren, would be with them but he had some paperwork to do.
"Ok"
"Rumor has it, your the schools number one bachelor." he said arching a brow.
"I'm sorry?" he said in disbelief.
"Not many Juniors are single, and I think it's the whole "want what you can't have thing." he said in a bit disbelief himself.
"Damm..." he muttered. "Girls are"
"Girls?" he said arching a brow finsihing his sentence.
"Scary..." he said stopping thier small hike. "I mean when you talk to them, you get butterflies and your toungue stops working, and"
"I get it." he laughed. "Your'd be suprised, I was 17 once as well"
"Knowing you, you were a rebel right? Breaking all of the rules, talking back, and stuff." laughed Mark.
"Then I guess it proves you don't know me." he said arching a brow. "I was actually head boy, and the biggest priss you'd ever meet." he grinned as they started walking once more. Mark stood still in shock for a second and then ran to catch up.
"Wait you? Head boy? At that acdamy that taught you all about demons?" he said in disbelief.
"Yeh, you know we should be quite because we could be scaring the vamps away." That was a basic signal meaning drop the subject.
Mark knew his brother could fight, and sometimes when they where researching a demon he always did find it first, yet Mark just thought he was lucky and always found the right book first. Yet head boy? What else about his elder brother did he not know about? All 4 of them made a point to not talk about thier lifes before each other unless they where talking about something bad that happened. If they said something good it made the other 3 feel a bit guilty and worried that you would leave them.
"Hi Macy, wanna go to the Winter Dance with me?" asked Mark in front of the bathroom mirror. "heeey yo Macy wanna go with this home dog to the pimped out winter dance with me?" he said acting all ganster. "Stupid, stupid" he muttered in frustration. Matthew outside the door merely chuckled when he went to pick up Will from swim practice, then he had to come home and pay the bills and morgages and for once it seemed as if Mark won't be helping.
As Mark started to grow down instead of growing up, it was Matt's turn to grow up. Now having to take care of Joni and Luke more. Now having to do more things on his own. It was a bit hard at first, yet it was ok because Mark and Matt had become something neither thought would be ever possible.
Best Friends
"WAKE-UP!" yelled Joni's voice to the recently blind Matthew Pryce.
"Joni?" he mumbled as he felt a tiny body jump up and down on his bed.
"WAKE-UP!!!" she screamed once more.
"What time is it Joni?" he groaned.
"The clock say 5, 1, and then a 5"
"Ugh Joni, it's 5:15, it's to early to get ready for school." he moaned.
"Oh....WAKE-UP!" she yelled.
"Why"
"Because, who am I going to play with if you don't?" she said questionably. Matthew moaned and put his head back under his pillow.
"Go back to bed Joni"
"But Ma"
"Go-" he groaned. Not coldly, yet very tiredly. Suddenly he heard a whimper. He immdeaitly sat up and felt around for Joni for a second before he felt her hands. "Joni...did you have a nightmare?" he whispered. He could feel by the way her body moved that she was nodding her head vigerously. "Come on, you can sleep with me." he said smiling weakly before she jumped into bed with him, layed her head on his chest and immdeaitly drifted off to sleep. Matthew felt as if his heart was going through a juicer.
"So...how does it look?" said Matthew doubtedly.
"It looks like one of those popsitcle stick house's I made at school once..but older...and smellier." she said refuring to the reck that was the Mcdonna Manor that would soon be thier home.
"A little help here Jonie?" he asked as Shadow at his side lead him to the now clear living room.
"Ok." she said and he could tell that she was smiling. He felt a gush of wind blow at him, and it sent him against the wall, yet he also felt dust go with him. "Matt, matt you ok?" she said running to his side.
"Dandy...." he said getting up.
"Dandy? Isn't that a flower?" she asked following him out of the room.
Wendy Joni Wyndam Pryce held onto her brother tightly, they had just gotten back from the beach, Matthew had just gotten his sight back but...Markus was sick. A demon wanted to turn him into a fish. Thats what Matt had said. She knew Mark liked to surf, and she would call him a fish, but she never wanted him to be a fish. No no no, Markus won't be a fish she won't let him. Yet why was Matt holding onto her so tightly? She wasn't scared, no she was it be Matt who was scared?
