Do you ever wonder what it's like to drown?

"No…"

Come down to the depths of hell with me. We'll take this whole wretched place with us.

"No."

They don't understand you. They should be evaporated for treating you like this.

"No!"

Stubborn leech! You'll have to kill me if you want out of here!

"NO!Sung Yi Appa!"

Cold Sweat.

Hye Ki shot up from his slumbering position, wiping the sweat from his forehead and launching it toward his envisioned attacker. The mirror didn't stand as good a chance as the man from his nightmare would have.

"Fuck…." Hye Ki sighed and palmed his dry forehead as a headache was already forming.

It was nearly dawn and Sung Hye Ki had barely gotten any sleep at all. The full moon was beginning to fade from the sky and the sun was just about to emerge from the horizon. Hye Ki really hated the sun and looked out the window longing for it to be cloudy for the first day of what humans call school. He smiled to himself at how silly it was to think that such a low level of education and curriculum could be appropriate for humans the same age as him. His headache soon reminded him why he was awake, and the elitist smile quickly vanished. Pulling back the covers, and giving up on any more attempts at sleeping, Hye Ki made for the bathroom to take an atypical morning bath.

At least there are no cold mornings here. Yet. He always hated how cold the ocean was—constantly suffocating, encompassed by chilly darkness. The world above sea level was much warmer and brighter. Comparatively, I guess my exile is going well. Hye Ki turned on the faucets and plugged the drain.

After shedding the nightclothes he had borrowed from Edward, closest in size to himself out of the Cullens, he began to inspect himself in the mirror, vain as he is. Hye Ki's skin was slightly paler than its normal shade and his eyes were darkening from the lack of sleep since he arrived in Forks, Washington, …United States of America. He gruesomely thought to himself. He wasn't used to living outside a body of water for this long of a time; Hye Ki felt constantly dehydrated. He even considered trying to fall asleep in the bathtub the previous evening. Pulling his snow-white hair up and clipping it out of his face he slid into the bathtub and felt much more at ease than between layers of dry cloth and sheets.

"Yappari…" Hye Ki began a conversation with himself as soon as he finished submerging his body from the neck down. "I should have just gone straight to the bathtub after I got home last night. Sheesh almost wore me out, stubborn bitch." Hye Ki motioned for his bath to retrieve his facial wash. A slender tentacle of liquid gracefully fetched it from the counter near the sink. Hye Ki began to lather in his hands.

"Hmmm, but at least I get to stay with vampires instead of some lousy humans. It pains me enough that I have to act like one while I'm at school," he scowled. Hye Ki's nagging brain reminded himself that he and his clan, too, were indeed technically human, as he applied the froth liberally to his cheeks. "Yea, but …. I don't know. We are not the same. I'll never be as careless and fragile as humans are. Like, uh … what was her name? That strange human girl that Edward has taken a fancy to for whatever reason. She certainly has a way about her." Again, his brain reminded him that he, too, had indeed fallen in love with a human in the recent past, and also that the girl's name was Bella. Having heard enough of contradicting himself and feeling refreshed, Hye Ki drained the water and walked out to greet the sun rising in through his bedroom window.

"Gotta love not having to towel off." The water from Hye Ki's sculpted body ebbed into the drain on the floor in the bathroom with a slight turn of the wrist. He proceeded to the closet, picking out a dark blue trainer jacket, dark blue jeans, a white graphic tee with some indie-bullshit design on it, and some brown designer ankle boots. Esme really knew how to shop for her boys, and Hye Ki loved his new closet full of clothes. He felt grateful for knowing what it was like to have a mother again, even if she was a little overbearing at times. After slipping the second foot into the boots, Hye Ki turned to inspect himself in the mirror, which he then remembered had been shattered by his impulsive behavior.

Hope they don't get mad at me for that, he fretted, biting his bottom lip.

Hye Ki was greeted in the kitchen by warming smiles from Esme and Alice, who were ecstatic to have a house member who actually needed to have food prepared. Hye Ki was surprised to find that instead of the usual quiche, fresh fruit, or bacon and eggs which he eagerly enjoyed the past couple of weeks, a traditional Korean breakfast complete with Kongnamul Bab, Spicy Stewed Fish, Cold Cucumber Soup, and Radish Strip Kimchi had been prepared.

"Annyeonghaseyo?" Alice greeted the watery guest with a smile.

Hye Ki bowed slightly and thanked Esme and Alice for their hard work, "Kamsamnida."

"We wanted to make sure you had good, familiar food in your body before you went to school today. We know it can be a little rough the first time, but all my children have grown to love it so. Eat as much as you'd like, Sung Hye Ki." Esme had her usually loving aura about her and Hye Ki couldn't help but feel it hit him like the warm rays of the surface-dwelling sun.

He immediately sat down and began digging into the ribs, "Omma. . ." Hye Ki had already grown accustomed to calling her mother, "You know you really didn't have to do this."

"Don't make me punch you," Alice teased. "You have no idea how long and boring evenings can get sometimes when you aren't able to sleep."

Funny, I seem to know that too well for someone who biologically needs to sleep. Hye Ki thought to himself.

"Besides," Alice continued, "It's not often that we get to cook Asian food, it was really fun! It's our pleasure."

Hye Ki smiled. He knew almost down to the word what they were going to say about preparing him food. It's the same thing they always say, so he figured from here on out it was time he tried a little harder to accept others' hospitality and kindness. "But how did you know what to make if you don't cook it often?" He said in between chopstick-fulls. "And Christ, this tastes really authentic. I'm impressed."

Esme and Alice gleamed at their critic's reaction, another benefit they reaped from cooking on their guests' behalves. "Alice had a vision about it. She's quite gifted you know." Hye Ki's eyebrows raised in amazement. He had heard of Alice's precognitive powers before and had even known a few other people in his tribe who had them, but he never thought they would be this accurate.

"Heh, yep. It's pretty convenient like that sometimes. Wonder what we should make for your first breakfast. Decided to make it Korean and BAM; know what I'm gonna make." Alice looked at her and Esme's production, feeling proud as if it were her own flesh and blood.

"Hey, Agua, hurry up and finish your fortune cookies." Edward had suddenly appeared on the other side of the kitchen without anyone noticing. He was rummaging through the cabinets looking for something, not giving anyone in the room particular attention. "I'm supposed to meet Bella before school starts." Edward started to walk away and added from the other room, "And stop giving me shit about your name, I just can't pronounce the damn thing."

Damn mind readers. Hye Ki thought that as loud as he could to make sure Edward understood his discontent for not only messing up his name countless of times, but also being an all around insensitive ass.

Alice smiled again, "You guys are already acting like brothers. How sweet." Hye Ki scowled at the thought of Edward ever being his brother. Sure he could stand the guy but that patience was wearing dangerously thin. "Well I better go get Jasper up! He wasn't feeling too well last night. Hopefully he's recovered and not lying around in bed anymore. Promise you'll sit with me at lunch?"

Maybe my room shouldn't be next to his. "Yea, sure," he replied. Hye Ki felt sorry for Jasper, as Alice went to go recover him for school. He had wanted to get to know Jasper better since he arrived, but it was hard to hide your inner turmoil from someone who could feel it right along with you.

"I'm starting the car. " Edward sing-songingly teased. Hye Ki had his last bite of rice, grabbed the book bag prepared by his doting surrogate, and headed toward the garage.

"If he calls me Agua one more time, I'm so kicking his crystallized ass."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hye Ki hated car rides.

Edward's reckless behavior didn't help things one bit. He thought he was going to hurl the whole way and could swear Edward's driving kept getting more and more erratic the closer they got to school.

Are you trying to make me puke in your car? Hye Ki shot at Edward.

"Don't worry, I'll roll down the window for you." Edward smirked at him, growing fond of having a little brother figure to pick on. "And you know I hate it when people do that."

Do what? Afraid to open his mouth.

"That. I'm right here, talk to me like I'm a normal person, Agua." Edward was lucky that with that line they pulled into the school parking lot because Hye Ki was about to siphon all the gasoline out of Edward's car and into the bastard's lungs mid-drive. What did he need them for anyway?

Edward climbed out of the car and bid farewell, rushing off to meet his Bella, no doubt. Hye Ki's composure needed a minute –or five – to recover from his first car ride in years. Luckily, it was partly cloudy outside and Hye Ki could still feel the ocean from the school yard. He had been there near La Push the other weekend but didn't want to risk getting in trouble with the Native American tribe which resided there, especially because he had heard some of their members were able to phase into werewolves. Hye Ki was indeed curious about meeting a werewolf for the first time, but since he probably reeked of vampire, he was a little wary about going out and seeking them himself. The school's structure undoubtedly matched its poor educational standards, and Hye Ki quickly lost interest in inspecting the school as he moved toward it. The students flocking into the complex also seemed horrendously uninteresting and plain, staring endlessly at his platinum hair and silver eyes. He had forgotten what it's like to be different.

Feeling a bit like the centerfold in a dirty magazine, Sung Hye Ki turned his view to the sky and slowed his pace a bit. The sky was incredibly fascinating to Hye Ki because it looked so similar to the ocean and yet it was its complete opposite. A perfect couple, he almost regurgitated his kimchi at how painfully romantic his own thoughts were. The reflection of the ocean sprinkled with puffs of moisture calmed the young water yielder, allowing him to slip into silence and concentration without feeling like he was being pulled down and suffocated by Poseidon himself. Hye Ki wanted to forget why he was here and that he was forced to spend a terribly boring life in exile, residing in a country that he had been taught to hate. The stillness of the clouds and the overcast glow of the sky allowed him to escape those searing pains whenever he thought about home, if even just for a moment.

Well, he thought, my classes certainly aren't going to be up there and I had better move before someone starts to wonder why the fuck I'm standing here staring at a plain, old, overcast day. I'd rather have them just wonder why my hair is so god damn light. With that Hye Ki averted his gaze from the clouds and fortuitously noticed there was a boy staring at him. He was standing closer toward the school entrance, sticking out like a motionless sore thumb amongst herds of moving ones. Hye Ki would have liked to get a better look at the potentially attractive boy and cuss him out in Korean for staring so intently, but before he could even get a good look at his face, he seemed surprised and embarrassed, breaking his gaze and briskly heading toward the school building. Hye Ki had to hold himself back from freezing the kid's paws in his spot; he hated it when people just walked away from him.

"So this is what it's like to be the new kid? Huh," Hye Ki muttered to himself. Even though he was upset he couldn't see the sky as well from inside the building, Hye Ki reluctantly trudged inside the prison and pulled out his class schedule to see what was first.

Elementary Japanese 1 Rm116 Komatsu

American Literature 2 Rm205 Reynolds

Lunch Cafeteria

Art Rm128 McGraw

Biology 2 Rm310 Glavan

Orchestra Rm130 Kochan

"The fuck….?" Hye Ki looked at his first class. "Well this is a terrible joke. Thanks, Cullen family." He put away his schedule and debated whether to tell the teacher he was a native speaker of the language, or to play dumb and day dream during class while getting perfect on the tests. Regardless, he headed to room 116 for an hour and a half of Konnichiwa's and Hajimemashite's with Komatsu Sensei.

His furors only further increased when his suspicions were proven correct.

"Oh! Hey! Hye Ki~ Hye Ki~Oppa! I saved you a seat!" Rosalie was waving frantically across the room, not only for Hye Ki's attention, but also for the whole class to get a good glimpse of how good she looked in her summer, floral print, pink and white, low-cut dress. Hye Ki raised his eyebrows facetiously, let out a sigh that puffed out his cheeks, and headed over to his "assigned" seat. He wasn't particularly thrilled about all the attention he was going to receive in this class room – 90% of it coming from females, the other 10% from greasy nerds.

"So, I'm assuming this cruel joke was your doing?" Hye Ki plopped into the seat graciously provided by his roommate. "Or do I have Edward to thank for this pleasure?"

"Don't be silly, he'll be your biology partner." Rosalie caused him to scoff, making her laugh a little herself, "I'm only kidding dear, I had no idea you were so fond of him. I'm sorry for putting you in the beginner's class, but I don't know any Japanese, and we were told to keep an eye on you."

Hye Ki rolled his eyes. Of course Rosalie would be the one to remind him of the position he was in. She may be drop dead gorgeous but she seriously had no tact. He felt like he was under some ridiculous house arrest and the school was his cell. "And you just thought. Why not get a native tutor for a language class while you're at it?"

"Exactly. Aren't I a genius? Plus, we can say we are an item and then everyone will be talking about us." Winking, Rosalie linked her arm into Sung Hye Ki's, who looked down at the linked limbs with protest. "We'll be the best looking couple in Forks High. Won't it be great? See, we can make this fun!"

Rose's upbeat attitude about a lifetime on soil wasn't the only thing bothering him, "Hmm, that's great and all but, I don't do um, uh… heh.."

Rose lowered her eyebrows and chin, taking a serious tone and whispering, "Oh. Vampires?"

"I was thinking of another word that starts with 'V'. . ."

Rosalie nodded in complete understanding. "Oh, right, of course. Virgins."

Hye Ki shot a bitch-who-are-you-trying-to-fool look at Rosalie and said, "Guess again." With that he pulled her arm out from under his, placing it on her books, stunned. "Time to study." He gave her a patronizing pat on the hand, and the teacher walked into the room, smiling at her prospective students.

About the time Rosalie figured out exactly what it was Hye Ki was trying to tell her, the teacher had already instructed the students to stand, bow before the lesson, and re-take their seats. Rosalie wasn't fazed by the fact that Hye Ki liked other boys, but she felt a little embarrassed she hadn't figured it out sooner, and she wasn't too happy her beauty had been rejected – even if it was by a gay man – so she decided not to bring it up.

After 40 minutes and the first ten phonetic symbols of the Japanese alphabet, Hye Ki was sure he would rather be eternally crushed by a glacier than sit through another minute of Rosalie mispronouncing Japanese and asking him every five seconds for help with the stroke order of the five vowels. After 80 minutes, Rosalie was finally getting the hang of it, but, unfortunately for her, the class had moved on to counting from one to twenty 60 minutes into the class. Good thing she has an eternity. Hye Ki sighed to himself and twirled his pencil in boredom. The class room only gave him a panoramic view of the parking lot full of the human's earth-killing, vomit-inducing machines. But as Hye Ki happened to look at the clock above the classroom door, he could have sworn he saw that gawker from the parking lot.

~*ping pong*~

The merciless high school gods must have been on his side; the bell rang for first period dismissal.

"Hey, so you'll help me after school with this right?" Rosalie went to ask Hye Ki as the teacher was explaining their homework.

Ignoring his teacher and Rosalie, Hye Ki picked up his things and tried to hurry out the door without looking like he was rushing. He could feel himself being drawn toward this person, like the South Sea current. Hye Ki opened the door to exit the class room, but so did 200 other students, and the mystery man was lost amongst the crowd.

Merciless afterall. Sung Hye Ki hated being teased.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

American Literature had been a whole different kind of boring. It wasn't that Hye Ki already knew the material, he just plain wasn't interested, and still had a little trouble reading quickly in English. After 90 minutes of introductions and explanation of the curriculum of the course, Hye Ki had a new headache going.

Thankfully it was lunch time and he had promised to sit with Alice and the other Cullens. At least in the jungle he had a small circle where he felt a little more at home. Constantly having to watch his choice of language and behaviorisms, topics of conversations, and using his power to manipulate water was starting to drive him nuts. Even if he had to sit next to the mind reader and listen to superficial conversations, it was a place where it was ok if he slipped up on his human act once in a while.

"So did anyone hear about that fire?" Jasper meekly started some conversation, looking down at the empty lunch table. The Cullens had no need for food, and Hye Ki decided not to be the odd one out eating various-contents meatloaf.

"You mean the one near the dogs?" Emmet growled. "Too bad it didn't get any of 'em, huh?"

"Emmet!" Rosalie slapped him across the shoulder. "Don't say things like that. They'll think that one of us did it if they hear you."

"I don't see the big deal, it's not like any of you are best buds with them." Emmet rubbed his shoulder slightly in pain.

"Well that's impossible; none of us would ever break the treaty like that." Alice was curious about last night's happenings as well. For some reason she had failed to foresee such a disreputable event coming. "Nor would we have failed so miserably had we decided to. Carlisle already talked to Billy. There were a handful of vampires in the arson. Maybe it was their fault and the fire got out of hand, or maybe they were killed."

"Plus, did you take a look at the area? The fire was done in a near perfect circle." Rosalie shifted the attention back to herself.

"I think you guys are taking it too seriously. It didn't happen to us, nor would we fall prey to such a small attack. Right, puddles?" Edward had been waiting all morning to use his new nick name on Hye Ki.

Do….shibarl….Hye Ki shifted his eyes toward Edward and said coldly, "What do puddles know about fires?" Hye Ki would rather they have avoided this subject all together.

Edward could tell Hye Ki was uncomfortable talking about this situation . . . or fires, or whatever, but couldn't pin point what was going on in his head. Hye Ki had made it a good habit to think in another language when Edward got too personal. Frustrated, Edward turned his attention to his girl friend across the cafeteria. He wished he could hone in on her thoughts as she stared deeply into her loaf of meats. He tried to guess what she could be thinking. Maybe Bella was thinking about earlier this morning when they had met behind the school dumpster for a little… Why does she insist on hanging out with that mutt? Edward's pleasant thoughts were interrupted by Jacob's homoerotic ones. Just who the fuck is he thinking so loudly about? Edward tried to decipher the thoughts that he couldn't prevent seeping into his brain.

He seems a bit down but …. His glow. It's like that white hair just glows so softly. It just is … ahh, not again Jacob don't go there. We don't need another camping trip in the pants when I stand up again.

Edward didn't know whether to laugh or excuse himself to go throw up in the men's restroom, but he decided he would get some self-satisfaction out of having to hear a dog's most private thoughts.

"Puddles."

Hye Ki's eyes said "You're dead if this isn't good." Edward didn't need his powers to hear that.

"Looks like you've got yourself your first New Kid crush."

Hye Ki raised an eyebrow. "What are you talking about? I hardly like any of the humans here at this school."

"Over there. By Bella – you remember Bella don't you?" Edward stuck a thumb out pointing over his shoulder. "And that's not what I meant."

"You mean …. Bella? I'm sorry but that's not my…"

"No you idiot. Try again."

Hye Ki thought this was painfully bothersome, but looked over toward where Bella was seated. To his surprise, and delight, she was talking to the staring-boy from the parking lot. Finally he could get a better look at his cute, upturned nose and stunning teeth. He might even have to forgive this boy for starting just for being so darn good-looking.

"Careful where you're thoughts are going there, Aqua Man." Edward lowers his voice, "Wouldn't wanna see you bring yourself down by going into the dog pen."

Edward's smirk and emphasis on his choice of words almost immediately exposed Jacob as a shape-shifter. Hye Ki wasn't thick-headed or naïve. He ignored Edward's comment, though, and couldn't help thinking that he looked like a puppy dog – sitting there chatting with his one best friend in the whole world. Hye Ki probably would have guessed sooner or later without the help from his colleagues. He now noticed that the puppy's musculature was considerably larger than most 17 year old boys and that the blood running through each one of them was at least a few degrees hotter than a normal human body. He radiated. More than Esme and her love, or the glow of a nuclear reactor, he was fusion – a star, the shining sun.

Luckily Hye Ki was careful to think the entirety of his personal thoughts in Japanese, leaving Edward empty handed with nothing to throw back in his face. He felt like he was in one constant, endless game with the young vampire.

"Not sure what you mean my Dear Brother." Hye Ki threw his royal flush down on Edward's card table.

"Tch…" Edward had folded.

Hye Ki went to further reciprocate the staring boy's gaze from the parking lot, but he had let him get away in shifting his focus back to the Cullens. He also realized it was about time to head to the next class. He smiled and genuinely told the Cullens he would see them later at home after school and also delivered a GO FUCK A LAWNMOWER to his dear Edward Cullen.

Hye Ki grabbed his things, nonchalantly generated a patch of ice for Edward to slip upon on his way out, and headed toward art class. He hoped they would be doing a lot with watercolors.

I still have half the day left. Hye Ki felt slightly better about his eventful morning and hoped he and the wolf would cross paths again soon.
