Aspen

I sighed when I was called into the principals office. It had to be Asher. Rumors were already circulating. That he punched Mrs. Hunter. That he cussed her out. That he left through the window. That he flipped her off. He was so immature.

"Come in Aspen."Principal Mariage said when I knocked on the door. I came in and froze. His daughter was there. The girl from the forest. She was a year younger than me, 16. She looked stunning, with her midnight black hair and gorgeous deep brown eyes. She sat in a chair on her phone, looking pissed. Principal Mariage was at his desk, taking a shot of whiskey.

"Please sit down Aspen."he said, gesturing to a chair. I took a seat and looked at his daughter for a second. She didn't look up from her phone.

"Now, Aspen, you're here because your twin, Asher, called his teacher, Mrs. Hunter, a bitch and then left the classroom through the window."he said. I rubbed my hand through my hair. Damnit Asher. I thought to myself.

"I have to threaten him with expulsion again. I thought you were going to whip him into shape. This is a crucial year for the two of you and I will not have him not graduate. He will be the first student in the history of this school to not graduate."he explained. I nodded. I had tried working with him over the summer but he always just ran off, going to find the next victim of his bloodlust. I would always copy his powers and stop him before he could do it. But, he was always getting stronger. It was hard to keep up.

"I know Principal Mariage. I tried working with him over the summer but he left to go to Nashville without me."I told him. He groaned and took another shot. His daughter looked up from her phone and rolled her eyes at her father.

"Well, I now have to go to drastic measures. Do you know Linden?"he asked, pointing to her.

"I don't believe we have ever met."I replied. She looked at me with a confused look on her face.

"Well, I've agreed to raise her allowance if she helps Asher past the 11th grade. She will be over at your house every Tuesday and Thursday to help Asher. Please try to restrain your brother from torturing her, physically or emotionally."he said.

"Yes sir."I replied, shooting her a smile. She sent a timid smile back then went back to her phone.
