Triggered pt 1.
Lukes pov.
Ashely turned to look to see who I meant, although she probably already knew from my tone.
"The goth girl and the two redheads are Sara, 'Aron and Erica O'Sullivan. 'Aron and Erica are twins by the way" she added in.
"The tall and bulky male is Darien Faustus and the guy who looks like an idol and the Egyptian girl are Kenji and Nefertiti Levy; they all live with Dr. Faustus and his wife," she said.
"But that's not all of them," a girl whose name I think was named Kira spoke up.
"Wait, there's more?" I said.
Ashely giggled, "Yep, Tara and Krista O'Sullivan and Matthias and Benjamin Maasai. Tara and Krista are the older siblings of Sara and the twins; most of the school calls them the Celtic Five," she said.
"If they're adopted siblings then why are they acting like they're together?" I asked.
The entire table busted out laughing. Kira answered that one
"Because they are together. Darien and Erica, Kenji and Sara, "Aron and Nefertiti, Matthias and Tara and Benjamin and Krista," she said.
I was surprised to hear that and slightly annoyed that Erica was already taken. I was so hoping she was single. However, just because she was taken wasn't going to stop me from talking to her. After all, it wasn't like she had a ring on her finger.
" So tell me do they interact with anyone or do they just stay together in their little group?" I asked.
Ashely spoke again, "Oh no, they're very involved in school activities, but they sit together at lunch," she said.
A guy whose name was Isaac spoke up, " Matthias is in charge of the literary club and is the current leader of the school's debate team; Nefertiti is in charge of the school newspaper's gossip column, Kenji is the founder of the Japanese history club, Tara is the founder of the Celtic Club, Darien and Aron are in charge of the mechanics club, Erica is the co-leader of the debate team and a member of the art and literary clubs; Krista is the founder of the photography club, Benjamin is the founder of the African history appreciation club and Sara is in charge of the school's yearbook and a member of the Celtic Club, and founder of the Fashion Club.
All I could say was wow.
(Erica's pov)
I hurried out of the girl's bathroom, grateful I didn't have to stay in there any longer. Playing human had as many advantages as it did disadvantages, and having to pretend I had to go to the bathroom at school was at the top of the disadvantages list. Honestly, if humans could smell how awful it smelt they would lose their appetites.
I walked to the cafeteria where my family was waiting for me, Nephti had been giving us the rundown about the new kid at school all day through the mental link my husband had set up for us all. According to her, the new kid was a real Debby Downer.
I reached the cafeteria and walked in, immediately spotting my family at our usual table. It was as I was walking over to them that I noticed a kid I'd never seen before gapping at me. Whatever, I'm used to it.
I finally made it to the table and took my place by Darien, he put his arm around me and pulled me in close.
"So, Nephti. Find any new gossip to share with us?" I asked.
You see, Nephti is a mindreader, but, unlike a certain Cullen, she can turn her gift on and off; a fact she's very smug about.
She smiled at me looking quite excited, " Oh yeah the new kid thinks Kenji looks like a K-pop star," she said laughing.
I looked over and noticed Kenji's annoyed expression. Kenji was from the Japanese Nara period and had served in the Japanese army under Empress Genmei. He had nothing against South Korea, but he was proudly Japanese and wished people would remember that. I didn't blame him.
"So what does he think about the rest of us." my sister Sorcha asked, (and it's Sara here, Earcanan) she chastised through our mental link.
"Sorry Sisi old habit's die-hard," I said.
Sara rolled her eyes at me, "You've had a century to practice," she said.
Nephti interrupted us before we could start arguing
"Hello back to Sara's question, the new kid's name is Luke by the way," she said.
I nodded, "Ok what does Luke think about us, not that I cared," I asked.
Nephti jumped into explaining to us Luke's first thoughts about us. Not that I cared about what he thought of us, but it made Nephti happy, which made me happy. You see, Nephti had been born in the same century as me and my siblings, which, was the fourth century during Cleopatra's reign.
She was a member of the Egyptian court since she was a descendant of the banished queen Nephatiti, which, explains her love of gossip. It just goes to show you that no matter the century, there will always be gossip.
I was pulled from my thoughts by Nephti waving her arms in my face,
"Hello earth to Erica, are you listing to me," she said.
I smiled at her, "Of course I am, you were saying Luke thinks Darien looks like Mamoru from Sailormoon." I said.
My husband gave me a dirty look, which I ignored because we both knew it was true change gold for blue and my husband looked just like Mamoru Chiba.
Nephti, now satisfied I was listening continued,
"As I was saying he thinks Sara looks like a Thorn from the Hex Girls, she said,
Sara smiled because that was the exact look she had been going for, "And he thinks I look like an Egyptian Princess," Nephti said proudly.
My brother 'Aron smiled at his wife, "You do look like an Egyptian princess darling, but should I be jealous?" he asked playfully.
She gave a short laugh before hitting him playfully on the arm,
"Oh please it's not you who needs to be worried," she said.
We all raised an eyebrow at that, "and who, pray tell, does need to be worried?" Kenji asked her.
Nephti looked over towards Darien and me, "Oh Darien, I'm sorry to say but the new kid has taken a fancy to your wife," she said.
I didn't care but Darien looked annoyed, "What do you mean by that Nephti?" he asked.
She looked to be enjoying herself as she answered him, "It means, dear brother, that the new kid thinks he has a shot with your mate. Just you wait till I tell you what he thought of her," she said.
I knew Nephti was just playing with him, but my husband, although not a jealous man, did not like hearing what every hot-blooded male thought of me, which, I really couldn't blame him for that; no husband wants to hear another man's fantasies about their mate.
Darien, who still looked annoyed asked, "And what does he think of her, nothing dirty I hope," he said.
Nefti smiled at him as she answered "He thinks she looks like a Celtic Priestess," she said.
Sara, "Aron and I all rolled our eyes at that. Although it was true that Sara, 'Aron and I were born and raised during the Irish dark age, it annoyed us when humans couldn't come up with a better description of me. Don't get me wrong, I'm a proud Irish woman, but still. Just because I have red hair, don't compare me immediately to an Irish priestess, come up with something more original, please.
I didn't have time to comment because the bell rang. I had Bio next with Mr. Mason. I kissed Darien goodbye and headed off to science, but not before Nefti told me the new kid would be in class with me.
