Isleen look up at him grimacing, they heard footsteps coming their way, Isleen unconsciously grip his shirt in a tight fist waiting to be caught.
"This won't do" Alaric said, he pulled her and with incredible speed he ran past the guards.
They wipe their head around at the sudden gush of wind.
"What was that?" They ask the other.
Alaric came to a stop Infront of the female dorm.
"You can open your eyes now" Isleen opened them, she look around surprised at their sudden change of location.
"Vampires are indeed incredible" she mumbled.
"Only limited to few, I will take that as a compliment" he said Isleen rolled her eyes.
"So full of your self" Isleen said,Alaric smirked and replied.
"That the least I could do, being prideful is part of my nature don't be surprised."
"Right " Isleen replied.
"Do you plan on holding on to me the entire night, I don't mind" Alaric said making her conscious of their position.
Isleen pulled away stepping back, she adjusted her hoodie.
"You should go in now it late" he told her.
Isleen look up at his raven eyes which peer down at her, she look away from his intense stare.
She turn and leave striding down the hallway before entering her dorm room.
The next day.....
Before the bell went off Isleen was already up with the rest, preparing for class.
"I have never slept peaceful like I did, I wish I could sleep in some more" Giovanna said.
"The bed is nice, it good how things are looking up" Mizuki said.
She pick up her books and place them in her bag before taking her flask which held content Isleen don't want to know about.
Giovanna also had hers which she fill up with warm blood.
Mizuki was from the fox clan and fox were cunning creatures, but so far she like Mizuki.
Mizuki offer Isleen a smile.
"What class are you guys in?" She asked.
"Um class 2B Isleen and I both share the same class, what about you?" Giovanna replied asking.
"Oh am also in class 2 but am in A." Mizuki said with a smile.
"We will catch up more during PE class each" Isleen said. And they nodded.
"We should get to class now," Isleen informed checking her time. She wore her coat and pour a little substance on her palm rubbing the liquid together to dry off.
Giovanna arm link Mizuki and the female whisper to her.
"What that she's pouring?"
"Nothing fancy, just a little problem with clairvoyance" Giovanna told her.
"Ahh" Mizuki nodded.
They work out their dorm and find their way to class.
★★★
Alaric press the tip of his pen it made a clicking sound, he stare bored at the projector Infront of him as a teaching was going on.
"A formula of a..." The teacher rant on standing close to the screen the blue light reflecting on her.
Thaddeus took notes of the teaching while Calix have his phone on the table playing mobile games.
After the class came to an end, the lights in the room was turned back on.
Alaric has his chair drawn back and a sleeping mask on his face.
The door shrug open and Neera came in. Her brown hair cascading on her shoulder like a waterfall fitting her nature.
She came to a halt Infront of Alaric, Thaddeus and Calix who were whispering at the side stop looking up.
"Alaric?" She called, she waited for his reaction but he gave non.
She continued.
"A sign board has been put up, we are going on a school tour tomorrow, the committees has discussed on letting us get a exposure to the human habitant and understand the way of their living" Neera said like a messenger.
Alaric said nothing still yet she continued.
"Have talk with Mr Allen to allow us take a separate bus from the rest, we will have the space to our self. And I have other stuff prepared too we will be together throughout the trip that way we won't have to look for the other or get lost in the crowd, hmm".
Alaric didn't respond instead he stayed in the position she met him.
"Alaric??" She called annoyance evident in her voice.
She pulled off the face mask only to find him asleep.
"How could you sleep through everything I said," she said throwing the mask on the couch angrily.
"What were you expecting from someone who had a mask on, meditating? Silly you" Thaddeus said clicking his tongue.
Neera threw him a glare.
She got up and stride to the door.
"Close the door when stepping out" Calix savagely said paying no attention to her.
She hump and slam the door close.
"Such fuss," Calix mutter arranging the cards he had in his hand on the table. He look up at Thaddeus and the male grin at him.
Alaric opened his eyes staring at the close door.
It was dinner time and they wait in line for their turn to be served.
Isleen took her seat on the cafeteria desk follow suit by Giovanna and Mizuki.
"Great potion of meal" Giovanna said looking down at her beef coated with blood making it look reddish from it usual color.
Mizuki was having a simple meal fried Chicken with rice.
Isleen was no different she was fine with some vegetables salad having no strength for a heavy meal.
"A school tour, I cannot wait it my first time having one" Giovanna said.
"Anna we are going to be mingling with humans it won't be easy especially with controlling urges I think you vampires will have it hard" Mizuki said looking concern.
"It not that bad, am doing pretty well seeing how I haven't bounce on Isleen yet, vampire can control their urges." Giovanna said, Isleen narrowed her eyes at her but the later wave it off with a smile.
" What about you Isleen what are you going to do at the tour?" Mizuki ask.
"Nothing much, I guess follow what ever the event presents" Isleen replied.
"Boring, what a tour without a little fun," Mizuki said. Giovanna squeak nodding her head showing how up she was up for it.
Isleen stare at the two females, one overly active the other calmly active they were the perfect combo.
"Don't think about it i won't be egging you on on your little adventure, not happening" Isleen warned.
A smile creep on Giovanna face she surrender with a smile.
But Isleen knew too well it wouldn't go down well.
★★★
Standing in the driving lane where couples of students were waiting for the teacher to give out their instructions so they could make their way in the bus.
"No funny tricks, no showing off, no letting the humans catch you transforming, unless you want to be drag off to the lab and become a test rat." The dean said addressing them.
"Are we clear?" He asked.
"Yes Mr Andrews!!" They said in unison.
"Alright have fun kids" he told them.
They began trooping in giggles and laughter escaping their lips.
The bus was filled with chatters and song of excitements.
Giovanna, Isleen and Mizuki were at the back standing in line.
"Why are they slow" Giovanna murmur.
"Just wait for your turn" Isleen told her.
She hump folding her hand.
It was finally their turn to get in they were the last ones standing.
The three of them got into the bus.
Mizuki and Giovanna took their seats. Isleen look around finding everywhere full.
The teacher came in.
"The bus is full, are you the only one left?" He asked.
Isleen nodded.
"Follow me" he said.
Giovanna pout seeing her step out of the bus, she look out the window to see Isleen lead to another bus.
Isleen stare at the bus which had drawn curtains, her palms became sweety suspecting it is the bus for the elite out of the elites.
She step on board following the teachers in.
Isleen walk in the bus which held Five students, even the air in the bus smelt like riches, the air smelt different. It was soothing cold in there.
Isleen didn't want to make eye contact, but she was met with a familiar face she met at the party the last time.
Her face lit up seeing the girl she met the last time.
She offered her a smile.
"Sorry to bother you all , but can you make space for an addition she's the only one without a space in the other bus". The teacher said.
"Sure there's plenty of space " Calix said waving at the back seat.
Thaddeus also seem to not have an issues Orlaith smile was enough to show she had problem with it.
Neera look at her disapproving but no body needed her approval considering how she was already in a bad mood, after a random source had her plans cancelled.
At the back roll sat Alaric with his head bowed and a headset on.
He raise his head looking away from his phone, he caught sight of Isleen who had her eyes transfixed on him.
He lean back staring at her a little smile playing on his lips.
"Go on" the teacher nudge her going back outside.
Alaric pick his bag which was beside him and threw it on the single seat at the back.
He tap the seat beside him.
Isleen frowned looking back seeing other bags occupying the space having no other choice she took a seat beside him.
Alaric smiled in satisfaction.
"Seems some things can't be avoided", he mutter to her hearing.
Isleen glared at him, she finds her self glaring this days, she sigh and sink in to her seat.
