By the end of the day I was trying to decide whether to go to detention or not. Hilary heard what I did and made sure I went. She wouldn't have been able to do anything but I didn't want to hurt her.

I entered and slammed my bag on my desk. I noticed there were a few other people there who looked as intelligent as a nat. But then someone came in who I never thought I'd never see get detention. Kai stormed in looking pretty pissed and kicked his seat to the side before sitting down. "What are you in for?" I asked and he looked at he with fury in his eyes. "I didn't have a good enough explanation as to why I was late this morning."

"Oh." Then the teacher showed up and we kept quiet until we've served our sentence. I slammed my locked door shut and banged my head against it, half hoping to knock myself out. "Bad day?"

"Not my worst." I turned to see Kai with a bemused look on his face. "How was yours?" He shrugged and we walked out the school together. "Oh Kai!" I heard a fake chirpy voice call. "My days about to get a whole lot worse." I heard him sigh. The popular slut came running over and wrapped her arms around Kai's neck. Kai tried to shrug her off but she held on even tighter.

I walked off but she had something to say to me. "Stay away from Kai!" I turned round. "Come again?" She glared at me but that was nothing compared to how I was looking at her. "He's mine!" I slowly walked towards her Kai free. "Oh? Am I supposed to be scared?" I was taller than her even if she was wearing heels. "You should be if you know what's good for you." She was sitting on her car boot and smiled at me in an evil way.

Kai was in his car next to her, he seemed to be the type to drive a black convertible. Whilst the girl's, was a bright pink sports car. "Nice car." I couldn't hide my disgust and Kai smirked. "You're Ebony right? Well I'm Irene Prescott, you'll do well to remember that." I leaned in to get a closer look at her and she leaned back. "Will I?" There was no bout in my mind. She was putting on a tough girl act, but I was not. She was fun to intimidate and I liked to take people like her off their high horse. But then she pulled out a silver switchblade.

Kai looked over but I just smirked. "What? You gonna cut me now? Ok then, go ahead."

"W-what?" Irene stammered, her hand was shaking and so was the blade. I snatched it out of her hand and looked at it closely. "Was that supposed to frighten me?" Irene didn't do anything and looked like she was about to wet herself with fear. I smirked and took off one of my gloves. "Let me show you something."

I took her blade in my right and sliced open my left. The girls squirmed and some let out a small scream. Kai's eyes opened in horror as I let the blade penetrate deep in to my hand. I had an accident a few years ago rendering me unable to feel pain of any sort. I looked at my work and licked the blade; I loved the taste of my own blood. I had gotten used to it over the years anyway. I gave Irene back her blade and went to the left side of her car. I wrote a message in blood on it. 'This is Irene Prescott's car the fucking whore!'

Kai snorted and Irene looked shocked. I tore a piece of black material off my t-shirt exposing my belly button. I wrapped it around my hand and put my glove back on. Then I walked away leaving a pissed and mortified Irene behind.

I walked back to Hilary's house on my own. Irene drove past cursing at me with a big sheet trying to cover up my message. The problem was the colour, it was white so the blood went through it and everyone could still see it. 'Stupid bitch.' I thought with an evil grin on my face.

Someone else drove past too but he stopped beside me. "Want a lift?" I raised an eyebrow with a curious look on my face. "I owe you two for helping me out today."

"Two?"

"You got that slut off my back." I smirked and sat next to him. He drove me along the road and I looked at my hand.

KAI

There was a deep gash across her palm but I could see no pain enter her face. "If you come back to my place we can fix your hand."

"Why?" She was looking at me curiously again. "Then we'll be even." She smirked and nodded. "Good point." We went to my place and I saw Ebony looked impressed. We went to the servant's house away from the house. "Maggie, get some clean bandages and warm water."

Ebony sat down and took her hand out of her glove. The material under it was sodden in blood. "You know I could've done this myself with a car lighter." I cringed at the thought of burning skin. This girl was morbid; she didn't wear black just because she liked it. "Don't be ridiculous." Maggie scolded me and helped to clean my hand.

There was a sudden ringing over our heads. A bell was going off with the word office printed on it. Maggie sighed. "That'll be your grandfather wanting the post." Maggie left us alone so Kai finished my hand. I was looking out the window at his huge garden. "You don't feel anything do you?"

"Hmm?" I looked down to see he was pressing the cloth right in to the cut. "It's not going to get any better if you make it bleed again." I said glaring at him. Kai smirked and asked if I would like stitches. "I'll do them." Kai watched in amazement as I sewed my skin together with the wire and needle from what looked like some pretty sophisticated medical equipment for a first aid box. They even had bottles of morphine in it. "Do you have your own doctor or something?"

"No, one of the servants went to medical school but didn't have enough money to make it all the way. His father worked here so he came too."

"Where is he now?" Kai didn't look at me as he wrapped my hand. "Probably on some errand." My hand was finished and I flexed it. I hid the bandages with my glove and got up. "I'd better get home. Hilary will probably be worried with my homework not being finished." Kai smirked again and followed me out the door.

HILARY

I saw Ebony being dropped off at my house by none other than Kai. She came towards the door and I wanted an explanation. But she just used her old line on me. "Ancient proverb, mind your business." I hated it when she said that but she had locked the door to her room. "YOU'RE GOING TO TELL ME WHY KAI WOULD DROP YOU OFF IN HIS CAR!"

EBONY

I put my earphones on and cradled my hand. Even though I felt no pain I still didn't like being hurt. 'One more scar to add to my collection.' I sighed before falling asleep to the music.
