Dan: Horrible…

Me: Aw did Runo dump you?

Dan: We didn't even go out!

Me:I'm pretty sure you did…

Dan: NO!

Me:Yes, I'm positive… Shun told me.

Dan: I'm going to get him! *leaves to find Shun

Me:Well I'll see how that turns out =). Anyway, here's the little recap on last time's chapter:

Alice has a dream about a girl meeting a boy.

She goes to school the next day to find out the girl was her and the boy was Shun.

Alice has a vampire father and a human mother but she's just human with powers.

Shun is a werewolf.

Shun's P.O.V

I slammed my locker hard, ignoring the looks I got from teachers who were getting ready for lunch or for their next class. I had lunch right now but I wasn't in the mood to eat. There was something about that girl that bothered me. It wasn't only the fact that she had the one of the shards from a jewel (I got this idea from Inuyasha and the Jewel of four souls… I think that's what it was called =)); it was something about her… as a "human". No human would ever be able to touch it yet she had worn it. One shard from the jewel could give a person power they could never imagine. That one shard would do whatever it takes to protect its owner. Only creatures could touch it though. I smelled her human blood with my own nose. She was definitely human… how did she find it though? The pack and I had been searching for one of those for years now. That was one reason why we all went to different schools. We were expecting to bump into a vampire at one of those schools instead I bumped into a girl… an ordinary girl. I was still confused about the whole situation. I didn't bother going to the cafeteria. I just walked straight out the door and went to sit on a tree. I closed my eyes and lay my back against the trunk. It was peaceful. No more crazy yelling girls.

"Hi…" I wanted to snap at whoever interrupted my thoughts but her voice was beautiful… it was like a lullaby. I opened my eyes and looked down. It was the same girl with the shard. I watched as it had started to glow. I wondered if she knew how it worked. If it glowed when I was around her, it meant that it wouldn't glow when vampires were near. Maybe she was a vampire with a lot of human scent perfume… no that was stupid though I've got to admit, she was beautiful. She had these big brown eyes and long orange hair that fell perfectly. She smiled at me. I nodded to tell her I heard. She looked at me a bit puzzled.

"You want to have lunch with us?" she asked as she pointed to a group of people under another tree.

"No," I answered simply. I wasn't going to interact with her until I talk to the others about this.

"Are you sure? It would be a great chance to meet new people," she continued. I glared at her but she just kept smiling at me. Her smile was almost mesmerizing… almost.

"I said no, would you just leave me alone?" I said it harsher than I meant to. The girl stepped back and her smile disappeared.

"Sorry, I can see you want to be alone. Well maybe next time. I'm Alice by the way," she introduced and waited for my answer but it didn't come. She turned around and walked back to her friends.

"I'm Shun…" I sighed a bit late. She didn't hear me and just continued to walk. I could hear them all laughing. Annoyed, I jumped off the tree to find another quiet spot.

Alice's P.O.V.

"Oh come one Alice, just ignore him. Besides there are other cute guys at the school," Chan stated.

"Chan, I don't like him," I said honestly though I had to admit he was good looking. He looked strong too. You could see the muscles on his arm and chest. He must have been training for something. I couldn't stop thinking about him. I wanted to make him feel included and everything but he seemed to want to isolate himself from everyone else.

"Alice… Alice!" Mira waved her hand in front of my face while everyone else started to stare.

"I'm listening," I smiled. Then I noticed that Ren and Joe had left, "Where are they?"

"Oh, they went to buy something," Ace replied. I nodded and then went back to listening to Chan and Mira.

"Anyway, we're going to the library to do homework after school. Are you going to come?" Mira questioned.

"Yes definitely," I stated and went back to eating my lunch and enjoying the nice weather which was going to change really soon.

After school…

I sat in one of the chairs that had a desk. I was bored of doing homework. The others had all left a few minutes ago. Joe and Chan had left together. He said he was going to walk her home. Then Mira and Ace left with Ren. They were getting ice cream or something like that. I was still thinking about the new boy. He hadn't told me his name. I started to bite the end of my pen. Hmm… he seemed so distant from everyone else… I wondered why. I snapped out of my thoughts when I felt my pen being pulled away from my mouth.

"You should really break that habit," he laughed. I turned to him and then smiled. It was Anubias. He was one of my family's close friends' sons that meant he was a vampire… a full one. Most of our close friends were vampires.

"Yeah I should," I said a bit embarrassed.

"So what were you thinking about?" he wondered. I looked at him and then sighed.

"Well there's a new guy at school and there's something about him that… I don't know…" I trusted him completely. We have been friends since we were kids.

"Maybe you like him?" he joked. I shot him a look of disapproval but I knew he was only joking. Our two families thought that we were going to get married one day. I didn't think it was going to happen since we've been friends for a very long time and I haven't even thought of him in that kind of way.

"I don't think so…" I answered. He looked relieved for a second. I looked at him curiously but then shook it off, "Well I've got to go now."

"I'll walk you home," he offered. I nodded. I knew that even if I said no, he still would. I packed my bag and then let the library. It was chilly tonight. I was going to get my sweater but stopped when I felt one being put on me.

"Thanks…" I whispered, "But aren't you going to be cold?"

"I'm a full vampire. Weather like this doesn't bother me," he said it as if it was obvious though it really should have been. The night was beautiful. It was cloudy so the moon was a bit covered. It will probably rain. I stopped walking when I didn't hear his footsteps.

"What's wrong?" I asked as I turned to him. He looked at me as if he was deciding on what to say.

"Alice… I think it's the right time to tell you now…" he whispered. He went up to me and slowly slid his hands around my waist. The jacket fell off my shoulders but we both didn't make a move to get it.

"Anubias, I…" he wouldn't let me continue until he finished what he was going to say. I felt sick to my stomach as I realized what was happening.

"I think you're amazing… and beautiful…" he continued as he slowly placed a strand of my hair behind my ear, "And I think I'm in love with you… no I know I'm in love with you. Since the first day we've met, I had thought you were stunning…"

"I-I…" I didn't know how to put my feelings into words. I only thought of him as my best friend… almost like a brother. Someone I could count on. He pulled me closer to him and leaned in to kiss me. I froze but then at the last second, I turned away from him. I felt him froze. I gently pulled his hands off my waist and picked up his jacket. I handed it to him. I knew that if he had kept his hands on me, I would have read his mind… I didn't want that…

"I'm sorry Anubias… you're my best friend, almost like a brother but I don't like you in that kind of way… I'm really sorry…" I said gently, looking at him the whole time. He had looked a way a few times but his eyes were on me again.

"Alice, all I need is one chance. I'm crazy about you. I would do anything…" he begged. I shook my head and stepped away from him.

"Sorry…" I apologized once more and then ran the other way, towards my house. I felt horrible for having to reject him. He was sweet and kind… but I didn't think he was the one. I felt myself crying… why was I crying? I felt so stupid… I had hurt him… why didn't I just say yes?

Anubia's P.O.V.

I held the phone to my ear. It was still ringing. Then I heard him pick up.

"So was it successful?" the person asked me.

"No… but I don't get why I've got to ask her out…" I stated confused.

"You've got to gain her trust," he instructed.

"But she already trusts me," I said annoyed.

"Keep trying to get her closer to you. Love is stronger than the bond you two have now. Trust me," he hung up. I placed the phone back in my pocket and sat on the curb. It was my mission to ask Alice out and to stay with her as much as possible. Why did it hurt when she rejected me? Did I truly love her? If I accomplish this mission, I could get everything I've always wanted, yet seeing her like that… was heartbreaking… could she possibly be more important? We've been planning this our whole lives… yet here I am having second thoughts… I glanced at where she had gone. I knew what made her so special to the others… but what made her so special to me? (I'm giving a shot at making Anubias a good guy. I've seen Anubias and Alice pictures on the internet before… I prefer Shun and Alice =). That, I think you all know already xD)

Shun's P.O.V.

"You must have started to hallucinate," Dan laughed, "Ooooo Shun's in love!"

"Shut up Dan! I do not like her!" I yelled angrily. Like all werewolves, I had a special gift as well. Unfortunately mine didn't come in handy that much unlike the others. I was able to draw in perfect detail about anything and everything I've seen before. In front of the pack was a picture of the girl named Alice. Dan was able to teleport himself… not that far, but far enough. Runo could bite through anything… that was why Dan was so scared of her… and Julie was able to blind anyone for a while through touch… that came in handy. Mine was the worse gift ever.

"Guys! Billy just texted me!" Julie squealed excitedly as she ran into the living room with her phone in her hand. Billy was also a werewolf but from another pack… and he was also Julie's boyfriend.

"Okay whatever. Is this girl human?" Runo asked. I nodded, "She's beautiful though…"

"What are you looking at?" Julie asked as she joined us in the living room. She gasped when she saw the picture.

"Shun said she's human and she has one of the shards," Dan explained.

"How is that possible?" she wondered out loud.

"That's what we're trying to find out," Runo stated, clearly annoyed that Julie wasn't here before. I left the picture with them and left to go to my room. I could hear them arguing downstairs. My blinds were closed but I decided to open them today. It was raining outside. I noticed the light on in Alice's house. She was sitting at a desk, probably doing homework. I watched as she started to bit on the end of her pen. She started to stare at the ceiling. I automatically took out my book which was full of sketches and drawings. I got a pencil and I started to draw her. I did every detail carefully… from her beautiful eyes… to the shard on her neck… right, the shard… I finished my drawing quickly and went back to the shard problem. I looked out once more to find her staring at me. She titled her head curiously and then smiled. I kept staring at her… and realized her eyes were a bit red… she must have been crying. Was she crying because I wouldn't sit with them during lunch? No… it couldn't be… but what if it was? I sighed and then gave her a small smile. I felt as if I could almost hear her surprise gasp as her smile grew brighter. She turned to her desk and started to scribble something. Then she placed it on her window. I had to look really hard to see it.

Changeofheart?she asked. Change of heart? No way! She was still technically my enemy. For some reason, I got angry at her for that. I felt myself growl as I turned away from her and closed the blinds. I didn't know what got into me… maybe it was werewolf mood swing… or maybe it was just her… I looked at my drawing and ripped it out of my book. I crumpled it up and threw it in the garbage can. That's it. I'm here to get the shard, not make friends. I sighed and then started to think of a plan. I could still hear their screaming downstairs…

Alice's P.O.V.

Today was definitely not one of my best days. I lay on my bed face into my pillow. Why do guys have to be so confusing? All I want is Anubias to be my best friend again and for Shun to not act so isolated… I feel bad for him… being all alone at school and not knowing anyone but I didn't want him to think I pitied him… probably that's why he ignored me… alright I've got to forget about him for now. What about Anubias? He must be feeling guilty… I feel horrible. The whole scene kept replaying in my mind perfectly… why did I have to be able to do that? Maybe I should call him. I picked up my phone and looked for his name in my contacts list. I was getting ready to call him, but decided not to. What was I going to say to him? KnockKnock.

"Come in," I called. I heard the door open and sat up on my bed. My grandfather walked in with a cup of hot chocolate.

"I thought you might want one," he grinned as he handed the cup to me. I thanked him and then held the warm cup in my hands. It smelled so good. I could feel his eyes on me, "Alice, is something wrong?"

"It's nothing…" I lied and tried to give him a smile but it didn't fool him. My grandfather could see through me easily… I was like a clean, transparent piece of glass to him.

"You know I'll help you," he whispered as he sat on my bed as well. I took a deep breath and then explained everything about Anubias. I didn't tell him about Shun though. One problem was enough. I waited for him to say something.

"Why don't you give him a chance?" he finally said after the long silence.

"It's because I don't like him in that kind of way. He's a great guy but he's my best friend," I explained. He didn't seem convinced.

"Alice, I'm not going to force you to make this choice, but I want you to know that some best friends do end up getting married. Anubias is a great boy, I know you know that. Remember it's your choice though," he stated. He lightly touched my hand before he stood up and left my room. I got up from my bed and climbed on to the ledge of the window again. I hugged my knees and looked out the window.

"Mother… please help me…" I whispered as I looked up at the brightest star in the sky.

Me:Well how was it?

Dan: Horrible! *holds frozen ice pack to eye

Me: I meant the story… oh but what happened to you?

Dan: Shun happened…

Me: Sigh you should have known better =)

Dan: I should have? You told me it was Shun!

Me:Hehe… well yeah it was him. I didn't say he wasn't going to hit you… Anyway, aww thanks so much to all those who read until the end! =) It's incredible to be able to write and have people read it =) so thank you. Please leave a review or a comment on anything. Thanks so much! =) See you all next time!
