Chapter 1

Thank you for the reviews of the prologue, clearly you guys liked the idea so I felt like I should continue it.

Disclaimer: My idea! Steal it - you're dead. Get me?! Good.

Are you sitting comfortably? Then we'll begin... xxx

Mondays! I hate them! Well, I suppose they are not as bad as Tuesdays. The party actually went pretty well, apart from the fact that people refused to leave. Now, today, I was recieving many compliments on my 'awesome party'.

I approached my friends in our usual stop just outside of school. "Hey, guys." I said. "What is going on?" I asked when no one aknowledged me.

"New kids." Aiden said from behind me.

"Pardon?" I said, turing around.

"New kids. They're the ones that were at your party on Saturday." Then it clicked.

"The goths?" Aiden nodded. "Great. Some people that are up them selves are joining our school."

"Ouch." I heard a farmilliar voice say from behind me. I turned and saw the handsome face of Demetrius. He was, again, wearing all black with chains on his trousers and he was wearing a leather jacket over his black t-shirt.

"You can't say it's not true." I snapped back.

"No I can't." He said. "So, Sophie, how are you this fine morning?"

Erg! "Well, it is Monday. I have maths first. And now you're here. So I'd say not good." I sounded really horrible, but there was something about this guy that I didn't like and he seemed dangerous. Not a good combination.

"Ahh, I would have thought my presence would make any girls day one hundred times better." He said with his signature smirk. He leaned in towards me and I felt my heart rate speed up. "Scared?"

"Excuse me?"

"You looked scared. I'm not that scary. I promise." Something sounded wrong about that statement.

"Ok. Whatever."

I was about to say more but we were now surrounded by loads of girls trying to talk to Demetrius, "Hey, Demetri." I snorted at one girls nick name for the boy infront of me. He didn't seem to be one of those that enjoyed elabourations of his name.

"Hello...?" He said taking the girl's hand. I watched as he kissed it and she giggled. I felt a strange reaction in the pit of my stomach to his reaction to the girl.

Before she had time to say her name I spoke. "Bye, Demetri. Enjoy your time here." I began walking away but I heard him mutter under his breath.

"Oh, I will. Don't you worry." I heard the underlying threat in that, but I refused to look back as I linked arms with Carly and we made our way into the building.

"These goth kids are ruling the school and they have only been here for two days." Carly said to me as we left school on Wednesday.

"I know but I'm just happy I haven't had to come in to contact with any of them so far." I laughed and she joined in.

"Yeah, but you are going to the Halloween party, on Friday, Jinx is throwing, aren't you?"

"Erg! I've just said I didn't want to come into contact with any of them, so why would I?" I retorted.

"Because everyone is going, and I want to have a good time with my best friend. Please?!" I looked to her and realised the mistake. She was looking at me with her puppy dog eyes, which I could never refuse.

I sighed dramatically and gave in. "Ok. What are we going as?" I said defeated.

"I can not believe you're making me go out in public like this." I said, reffering to the 'Little Bo Peep' costume my friend had forced me into. My curly, blond hair was up in two pig tails and I had very very rosy cheeks. We were walking to Jinx's house, as he only lived a couple of streets away from Carly.

"Oh, come on! You look cute." She said. Her costume was a classic halloween costume. She had decided to go as Lucy from Dracula. She bought a ginger wig and everything!

"I look like a three year old." I said. I think I was even starting to sound like one.

"A very sexy three year old."

"You do realise how perverted that sounds, right?" Then we both began laughing.

Catching sight of where the party was being held, caused our laughter to cease immediately. We walked up to the door of the large, ancient house (or was it a castle?) and we were greeted by a door man. "Hello, and welcome." He said and ushered us in. I could have sworn I heard him laugh under his breath at my costume. Oh well, it's only one night.

We stepped in to the room in which the music was coming from and I was flabberghasted. It was a grand ball room. I could see loads of people dancing in the center, and several people were chatting at the tables that had been placed around the sides of the room. The funny thing was that today I couldn't tell who the goth kids were and who were just people from our school.

Suddenly I realised how stupid I looked in my costume. Everyone else was wearing dark and sexy clothing, and I was wearing a white a blue dressed that puffed out to just above my knees and I had to admit I looked very inocent and childish.

"Ah," I heard someone say from behind me. I looked and saw the host of the party walking towards us. I only knew him because we had english together. "Carly. Sophie.." He trailed off as he looked at me. I was shoked to see his eyes light up as he scanned me. I felt myself flush. He may not have been as hansome and sexy as Demetrius, however he was still very good looking.

"Hi, Jinx." I said. Suddenly I was glad for the bright rosy cheeks Carly had given me, as they could hide my intense flush. "Great party."

"Thank you. Save me a dance, Sophie." With that he walked away before I had the chance to answer.

"Ohhh! Admirer." Carly said. "See, I told you that you looked good!" She was practically screaming.

"Come on!" I said and grabbed her arm. I found a table where Ciran and his girlfriend, Sarah were sitting. Sarah like everyone else in the room had opted for a darker costume. She was a zombie, but she still managed to make it look pretty with her doe eyes pertruding from her make up. The dead leaves in her hair looked chic with her platium blond hair. "Hey, guys."

"Hi!" Sarah said. "I like your costume." I smiled at this eventhough I wasn't fond of the attention my outfit was getting.

"Thanks."

"I heard that Demetri was looking for you." Ciran said.

"Well, he hasn't found me yet, and I hope to keep it that way." I winked at him. I knew he knew I didn't particularly like Demetrius.

"Cool." At that moment Immortal Love by Vampires Everywhere came on.

"I love this song!" I said and recieved many looks from my friends. They didn't know all of my music prefrences, and they especially didn't knw that rock and metal were up at the top. "Let's dance." I grabbed Carly and Sarah's hands as they were right next to me and propelled them in to the middle of where everyone was dancing. I knew I was singing along to the song while dancing (or was it jumping?) which was drawing more attention to me than need be. I was a bit hyper.

I realised there were several people watching me with strange looks on their faces, but I was in no mood to pay attention to haters. When the song was over another good song came on but Carly practically dragged me off the dance floor.

"I think you have had enough fun for tonight." She said while laughing at my attempts to get back on the dancefloor.

"But this is a good song!" I whined.

At that moment someone stepped into my vison. I looked up into the face of Mr Dangerous. Demetrius. "Having fun, Sophie?" He asked. At that point I had stopped trying to fight with Carly and squared up to the boy infront of me.

"I was, but then you came into my line of sight, and my night was instantly ruined." I said, as I was talking I watched his eyes wonder down. "Hey! Eyes are up here." I exclaimed.

"Mmmmhhmm" He said, slowly raising his eyes to my face. I could feel butterflies at the bottom of my stomach, due to the way he was looking at me. He looked famished for something I had. But what? "Do you want to dance?" He knew I wanted to dance, because of my desire to get out of Carly's grip and onto the dance floor.

I caught sight of someone I thought might be able to get me away from this guy. I looked back to Demetrius as I spoke, "Actually I do... Jinx!" I called over to the boy that was getting himself a drink at the refreshments table. He looked over to me. I sauntered past Demetrius and grabbed Jinx's arm. "We're dancing." I said, draging him to the dance floor.

We danced for five songs before I decided to call it quits. I knew Demetrius had been watching us the whole time, with a cold gaze, as I kept looking over to him. Jinx occasionally tried to get a bit too hands on, but I moved away to stop that awkwardness. "Jinx, I'm a bit tired, shall we-" I was cut off as Jinx's lips crashed onto mine. I was caught off guard and it took me a few seconds to respond. I was about to try and push him off me when he was tackled off me, and onto the ground.

I watched as Demetrius bared his teeth at Jinx, while holding him down. I watched as they both tried to stare eachother down. That was until Demetrius spoke, "How dare you!" He said, in a scarily low voice. I wouldn't have been able to hear it, if I wasn't so close and the music hadn't been turned off.

"You never claimed her." Jinx bit back with just as much venom. I didn't know how to respond to what he had just said.

"I shouldn't need to." He was still baring his teeth, and I was sure his cainies had elongated slighly, but it was probably just a trick of the light. "I'm above you. When you see I take interest in something, you don't go near it!" That snapped me out of my shock.

"It?!" I shouted and I knew everyone could hear me, even if they couldn't hear the two males infront of me. "I am not an it. But do you know what I am? Leaving!" I shouted and made my way out of the room, and then out of the house.

Oh! Oh! Oh! What do you think about that. Halloween party completely random. Jinx- where the hell did he come from? I don't know. :/

I hope you liked it. Tell me please in a review? xxxx
