A/N: My first chapter! Whoo! Enjoy!

ZPOV (Next day after class)

I missed Stevie Rae like crazy. But, Bella wasn't so bad. I felt bad that I was so rude to her yesterday. She's actually real nice. After we had stopped our insane laughing over the 'sparkling' vamps, we talked for a while. I told her about Dark Daughters, and Damien, The Twins, and Aphrodite. Then we started talking about boys. I told her about the superman like Erik and sweet and (almost) innocent Heath. She joked that I could get two guys and she couldn't even hang on to her guy. The second that left her lips she had pain in her eyes and wrapped her arms around her torso and was kind of gasping for breath. When I asked her what was wrong she snapped out of it and was normal again.

Bella and I walked into our dorm after classes, and went to our beds. She picked up the wadded up quilt on her bed and jumped back. There was a hissing noise coming from the wadded quilt. It moved and an orange fur ball launched itself off her bed.

"What is that?!" She shrieked. I got up went to pick up the fur ball, while Nala "Me-ow-oofed" at me. "Relax" I said, "its just Nala. She's my cat." I paused, "or rather I'm her human. Cats kind of run this place."

"Huh." She said walking over and offering her had for Nala to sniff. Nala ignored her and jumped out of my arms and onto my bed. There was a tap at the door and it opened and The Twins and Damien filed in. They were all grinning like idiots.

"Alright, you guys have juicy gossip. Am I right?" I said.

"I think you should introduce us to your new roommate first." Damien said. Everyone turned around to look at Bella. She looked down at her feet and blushed. "Um, I'm Bella."

"Hi Bella. I'm Damien." He smiled at her. "I'm Shawnee."

"And I'm Erin."

"Hi." She said sheepishly. "Alright. What's the what?" I asked.

Shawnee smiled, "There is a new transfer student that just got here. And may I say he is one fine piece of-" Erin cut her off, "You don't even have to say it, Twin. Were all thinking it."

"I'll have to agree. Almost as fine as Erick." Damien said gaily. "How many times do we have to tell you-" Erin said. "That boy don't play on your team." Shawnee finished. Bella giggled from her bed.

"How do you know what he looks like?" I asked. "We past Neferet's office and he was in there. Her door was open." Shawnee smiled.

"Did you get his name?" I asked. "Well no but-" Damien interrupted Erin by saying, "I heard rumors that it's THE James Stark."

"Never heard of him." The Twins said together. "He was famous at the Chicago House of Night. The best archer there." Damien said. "How the hell do you know everything?" Shawnee said.

"It's a talent, I guess." He said. Suddenly something popped in my head that made me double over in laughter. Everyone looked at me like I was insane. "I just thought of the funniest thing that Bella told me last night." Her eyes got big and she shook her head. I cleared my throat, "Never mind."

"I swear you've lost it Z." Shawnee said. I just smiled and said, "How about we go get dinner. Maybe we'll run into Aphrodite on the way."

"I hope we don't run into her skanky butt," Shawnee said. "Ditto twin," said Erin. We all filed out my room and toward the cafeteria, with Bella trailing behind us.

So, what do you think?? Love it? Hate it? say it down there.
