(A/N): Prepared to be disappointed.
"I don't think I can do this." Sean said as he hyperventilated. Goldeye rolled his eyes as he threw him a paper bag.
"Relax, it's not hard. Just remember to be yourself." He said as Sean breathed into the bag and he looked around panicky. "Uh…maybe you shouldn't be yourself." Goldeye said as Sean sighed.
"What if she's just going out with me out of pity?" Sean said as Goldeye grabbed him by the shoulders and started shaking him.
"She likes you! Will you stop freaking out, because she's going to be at the door anytime now!" He said as the doorbell rang. Sean made the sign of the cross five times as Goldeye rolled his eyes and pushed him towards the door. He jumped over the space that connected the living room to the kitchen and ducked down.
"Hey Sean!" Bijou said cheerfully as Sean smiled nervously.
"You look really…wow." He said looking at her as she smiled brightly.
"Thanks! So, where are we going?" She said as Goldeye heard the door close. He jumped up and looked out the window to see Bijou holding onto Sean's arm as he led her to his car.
"Good luck." He said before leaving from Sean's bedroom window. He swung onto a tree and jumped onto a lower one. He jumped down and ran over to his motorcycle.
"I must say this has to be some of my best work." Lauren said as she put the finishing touches on Izzy's hair before her big date.
"Thanks Lauren." Izzy said as they heard a knock on the door. They both looked at each other confused before Lauren went over to open it. Donovan was standing in the doorway with a fake mustache and a police jacket.
"Uh…what are you doing her and dressed like that?" Lauren said as Donovan walked in and put his around Izzy.
"I'm here to be her temporary Dad." He said as Izzy raised her eyebrow. "What? You guys need to get the full first date experience. And what is one without a parental grilling?" He said as Izzy rolled her eyes.
"This is unnecessary and my Dad doesn't have a mustache." She said as he shrugged his shoulders.
"I just put it on for shits and giggles." He said as Lauren laughed and Izzy glared at her. Someone knocked at the door and with super speed Donovan opened it. He glared at Julian who looked at him with a straight face.
"Mr. Sanders." Julian said nodding politely as Donovan crossed his arms. Izzy slapped her forehead as Lauren slapped her hand over her mouth to keep from laughing.
"I see you want to date my daughter." Donovan said in a gruff voice as Izzy shook her head.
"Yes sir, and I promise to keep her safe throughout the events this evening." He said quickly winking at Izzy as she blushed.
"Hmm…have her back at my place by eleven and I'll show her some real fun." He said as Julian punched him in the shoulder.
"Dude, not funny." He said as Lauren started to crack up. "Besides you had a date today with Kim." He said walking around him and into his apartment.
"And it was awesome! I think she's really starting to like me." He said as he ripped the mustache off his lip.
"Damn, that means we all lose the bet." Julian muttered to himself as Donovan snapped his head towards him.
"What?" He said as Julian stood up straight.
"Nothing! I'll see you guys later. I have a hot date tonight." He said as Izzy laughed a bit.
"Why am I apart of this again?" Amber said as she ducked down against a wall along with Black and AJ
"Because I need a distraction." Black said as Amber rolled his eyes.
"But I don't even know her." Amber said as Black pushed her out anyways. Amber rolled her eyes before smiling and walking over to Alex.
"Ok on my mark we're going to pelt her with these balloons." He said lifting up a balloon.
"Sorry, but we beat you to the punch." Lazarus said from the roof as he and Tsunami dropped balloons filled with maple syrup on AJ and Black.
"How can you do this to me?!" AJ yelled up wiping the syrup out of his eyes.
"Sorry, but she recruited me." Lazarus said as Tsunami blew air down on them freezing the maple syrup on them.
"This feels so weird." AJ said as he got a sharp rock and started chipping the frozen, sticky substance off.
"She's better than I thought." Black said smashing his arm against the wall to break off the frozen syrup.
"Oh so much better." Alex said as Black glared at her. "You're going to have do so much better than that lover boy." She said seductively before strutting away as Black watched her.
"God! She's amazing!" Black said as AJ looked at him confused before shaking his head.
"You are the weirdest person I've ever met." AJ said trying to clean his quills.
"Dude…how can you say that? Jimmy Page, hands down, is the best guitarist ever." Shade said as Henry scoffed.
"You have it all wrong. It's all about Eric Clapton." Henry said as Shade rolled his eyes.
"What are you guys arguing about?" Bolt asked walking up to them.
"Who's the better guitarist: Jimmy Page or Eric Clapton?" Henry said as Bolt crossed his arms and scoffed.
"Easy. Neither. It's all about Santana." Bolt said as Henry and Shade shook their heads. Henry's phone buzzed as he pulled it out to look at his new message.
"Hold up! Let me guess who's that. Cherry." Shade said as Henry glared at him.
"Shut up." He said as Shade and Bolt laughed a bit.
"Seriously though, what's up with you two?" Shade asked putting his arm around his shoulders.
"Nothing…" He said looking down as Bolt smirked.
"Well, if it's nothing then I might just ask her out." He said as Henry whipped around and growled at him. "Knew it! You like her!" Bolt said as Henry blushed.
"So, are you going to do anything about it? Or are you going to be like this dumbass and don't say shit." Shade said as he pointed towards Bolt who glared at him.
"I'm taking my time. Don't worry about it." He said as Shade shrugged his shoulders.
"Oh! So you let him go without a word while you bitch at me!" Bolt said as Shade looked away before speeding away. "Come back here you little fuck!" He yelled before chasing after him. Henry shook his head with laughter before heading towards his class. Lauren, Hydro, and Alana were sitting in Starbucks waiting for Renegade to get off his shift. Yes…he works at Starbucks.
"Out of all the places on campus he chose Starbucks." Hydro muttered as he looked around the crowded room.
"At least we get free coffee." Lauren said holding open her frappuccino as Alana smiled to herself.
"In your case that's not a good thing." She said as she rolled her eyes.
"Where were you Tuesday night? I could have really used the help to do laundry." Lauren asked as Alana stiffened for a second.
"I was at Emma's place. She needed some help." Alana said sipping out of her coffee and adverting her eyes. Lauren looked at her suspiciously as Hydro took a deep breath already knowing what was to come.
"You're lying." She said as Alana looked at her confused.
"I don't know what you're talking about." She said as Lauren stood up slamming her hands on the table.
"You very well know what I'm talking about Alana Isabel Delgado!" Lauren yelled as Hydro scooted next to Alana.
"Just confess now before it gets ugly." He whispered as Alana shrunk into her seat. Lauren glared into her eyes as Alana tried to hide behind her coffee cup. Lauren gasped as she fell back into her seat.
"Goldeye was at Emma's apartment!" She said as she looked at Alana shocked.
"What did you just say?" A very familiar voice said as Alana froze. All three students turned to look at mad Renegade.
"Bull's eye!" Hydro laughed. "We all played darts at Emma's apartment last night." He said nervously as Renegade walked out of the coffee shop.
"Nice one." Alana said as Lauren grinned sheepishly. Onyx and Ruby skated into the skate park enjoying the smell of sweaty helmets and blood.
"What up Onyx?" Some people said passing him by. Everybody around the skate park knew Onyx because of one simple thing. He was the king. He was the best skater around since he first came here. He didn't like to bathe in the glory. In fact he didn't like the attention at all. He just came there to skate and nothing more. He especially didn't like the hater he received.
"Echidna." A blue-gray jaguar said skidding to a stop in front of him. He had light green eyes with hints of gold in them and his body was leaner compared to other jaguars. He was wearing a black t-shirt over a white one and straight-leg jeans with black on black, laced-up Vans. He had black wristbands on each of his wrists and a long black beanie that hung off his head. He had a dark green, almost black stone around his neck with a symbol in the middle of it. It was three swirls that connected in the middle.
"Hey Zeke…" Onyx said annoyed. Ezekiel "Zeke" Thomas. He was the reigning champ of the skate park, but since Onyx showed up and apparently "stole" his title he's been out for him.
"I see you're stealing my style now." Zeke said as Onyx rolled his eyes.
"You didn't come up with the skate style." Ruby said as Zeke put his hand on her face and pushed her away.
"Wasn't talking to you." He said as Onyx glared into his eyes.
"Don't touch my sister." He growled as Zeke stepped up to him.
"Sorry about last night then." He said as Onyx lunged at him, but Ruby held him back. "Touch a nerve?" He said with a smirk.
"What do you want from me?!" He yelled as Zeke's smirked fell.
"Skate off. You. Me. The ramp. Now!" He said as Ruby let go of him.
"Fine. Just because you can't face defeat doesn't give you an excuse to insult my family." He said as Zeke grabbed him by his shirt.
"You're going down. Hard!" He said as Onyx slapped a bracelet on his wrist and locked it. Zeke pushed him away as Onyx slapped the same bracelet on his wrist.
"You can't use your wind to get air now." Onyx said as Zeke glared at him. They climbed up the ramp as a crowd started to form.
"Ladies' first." Zeke said as Onyx put his board down.
"I believe its losers' first." He said as Zeke glared at him.
"Whatever. Just be prepared to forfeit." Zeke said as he dropped down into the ramp. He started out doing a few grinds and 360 flips. Ruby rolled her eyes as Onyx's eyes never left his board. He grinded the rail with his back two wheels before flipping onto his hands and arching his back. He smirked at Onyx before flipping back and skated down on the ramp. He grabbed the other side of the ramp with his hand as he kicked his board in the air making it spin in the air before landing back on the ramp. He jumped off his board before he was at the end and launched himself off the ramp spinning his board on his finger before landing in the middle. Everybody cheered as Ruby yawned. "Top that." Zeke challenged as Onyx dropped into the ramp.
"I plan too." He muttered as he skated down the ramp. He put his hand a foot away from the end as he glided his legs and board on the rail before skating back to the other side. He kicked up his board and put the tail on the rail and stalled before flipping it around and skating down. He grinded the rail and put his board on one of its back wheels and spun around it. He glided back down and grabbed the rail with his hand and spread his legs holding his board between them and arching his back, back. He landed back on the ramp, but skated backwards to the other side. He flipped in the air turning his body so he faced the right way. He grinded the rail before flipping his board on its side and grinding it and he flipped again on its other side before flipping it back and skating towards the other side. He finished with spinning his board in the air as he spun his body around with it. He landed next to Ruby as everybody cheered loudly. Zeke glared up at him before leaving through the crowd.
"Next time, babe." A pink hedgehog with black quills that had red streaks through them said. They ended at her waist and her bangs covered her right eye with some slightly covering her left. She had green eyes with hints of red in them and was wearing a black t-shirt with gray cargo-baggy pants and red, black, and white sneakers. She was wearing a necklace that said "Black Rose" and another necklace with a red stone and the same symbol as Zeke's.
"Let's just go Cat." He said as he held her hand and skated off with her. Goldeye was walking out of his last class of the day feeling exhausted. The thought of his bed made him keep walking.
"You." Renegade said as Goldeye sighed.
"I'm not with her." He said as Renegade walked up with him.
"You went to her apartment? Where she lives!" Renegade said with his fists clenched by his sides.
"That's generally what apartments are for." He said as Renegade glared at him.
"Stay away from her." He said looking down.
"You can't-"Renegade cut him off glaring dead into his eyes.
"Stay. Away. From. Her. I don't want to see you anywhere near her. I don't want to hear about you going to her place or seeing her. If you value yourself stay away from her." He said darkly before stalking away. Goldeye shook his head before sliding down the wall and sitting on the floor.
"Wow…I've never seen him so mad." Conner said as Goldeye looked up at him.
"I guess I bring it out of him." Goldeye said shrugging his shoulders.
"I would be careful if I were you. He's a calm person and you must have done a lot to piss him off." Conner said before walking away. Goldeye leaned his head back processing everything in his head. This whole "rivalry" with her cousin must cause Emma some grief. He didn't want her to feel bad about being with him even though it's what they both wanted. Goldeye sighed before getting up and walking out of the building.
"That was amazing!" Izzy said as she and Julian walked back to their apartments.
"I know…I can make world wonders happen." He said rubbing his knuckles against his chest.
"Don't get so cocky now." Izzy said as Julian laughed.
"What?" Julian said as he stopped walking. Izzy looked up at him confused and saw that he was looking at something. She looked over to see Kim and another guy holding hands. The guy was a black fox with white stripes along his body. He was muscular and had chiseled features that made him look irresistible. His eyes were an icy blue and his smile was shiny white. He was wearing a red dress shirt with dark jeans and classic Adidas. Izzy's breath caught in her throat as she gripped Julian's arm tighter.
"Julian let's go." She said pulling on his arm as he looked at her confused.
"Ok…I just can't believe Kim would do that to Donovan. He really felt like she was into him." He said as Izzy just nodded silently. "Is something wrong babe?" He asked as she snapped her head to look up at him.
"I'm just a little shocked." She said looking back at the nice looking couple as they walked the opposite direction.
"Goldeye!" Emma yelled as she saw Goldeye walk through the large campus. She ran towards him only stumbling a few times. Goldeye smiled a bit as he watched her running towards him. "Hey, I wanted to talk to you." She said as he sighed.
"I did too." He said as she looked up at him.
"Ok, you go first." She said smiling as Goldeye looked down sadly.
"I don't think we should see each other." He whispered as her smile fell.
"What?" She said concerned.
"I just…I don't want to get in the way of your family. Even if I don't like Renegade-"She cut him off looking at him hurt.
"This is all because of Renegade?" She said as he looked down at her eyes.
"I don't want to mess up your family relationships." He said as Emma looked down letting her bangs fall over her face. She sniffled a bit as Goldeye's symbol burned.
"Please don't cry…" He said placing his arm on hers. Emma jerked it away with leaving her head down.
"Don't touch me." She whispered as Goldeye looked at her hurt. "I can't believe you're listening to him." She said looking up at him as he sighed.
"Emma…" He said as she put her hand in front of his face.
"I don't want to hear it. Just leave me alone." She said running away, but falling on her palms. Goldeye tried to help her, but she jerked herself away from him and started running again with a few stumbles. Goldeye sighed as his symbol faintly burned into his palm, but that pain didn't compare to the one in his heart.
