The screen on the TV turned black for a second then turned back on and the music started. Lyrics scrolled onto the screen and the little countdown started in the corner of the screen. The counter reached zero and I started to sing.

"I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said, I'll never let you go
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said, Don't leave me here alone
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight...

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe & sound...

Don't you dare look out your window darling;
Everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold onto this lullaby
Even when the music's gone, gone

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe & sound...

Oooooo, Oooooo,
Oooooo, Oooooo
Lala... Lala...
Lala... Lala...

Oooooo, OooOoo,
Oooooo, OooOoo
Lala... Oh Lala...

Just close your eyes
You'll be alright
Come morning light,
You and I'll be safe & sound...

Oooooo, OoooOooo,
Oooooo, OoooOooo,
Oooooo, OoooOooo,
Oooooo, OoooOooo,

Oooooo, OoooOooo,
Oooooo, OoooOooo..."

When I finished an applause sounded. Everyone was cheering. I blushed through the tears in my eyes and hurried off the stage. My mother sang that song to me when I was little. Kade knew this, he saw my tears and engulfed me in a hug.
"She's alright, I saw her before I was thrown down here. She misses you. She doesn't know what happened to you." He whispered.
"What?" Henry asked around the menu.
"Mother...I miss her." I said into Kade's shirt.
"You've still got your mother's voice. Well, then again, your mother LOVED music and studied it as her field of knowledge." Kade said, letting me go.
"Why don't I take you back-" Gage started to say.
"NO!" I cried. His driving TERRIFIED me.
"Okay, hurtful. I'm only human, I only drive like any other teenager." Gage rolled his eyes.
"Oh, I do NOT know what to say to that." Henry said around the menu.
"Can I start you off with anything to drink?" A female waitress asked.
"Water." We all answered, and she hurried off.
"Give me that." I said, leaning over Gage's lap to grab the menues from Henry, tossing one to Kade.
I scanned the menu, finding Orange Chicken.
"I'll order orange chicken. I haven't had that in a while." I told Henry.
"Their orange chicken tastes like crap." Henry said.
"How do you know what crap tastes like?"
"Umm...I just do."
"I'm going to order it anyway, and then make you eat it."
"Why is there tacos on the menu?" Gage wondered.
"This isn't a very authentic Chinese restaurant. The tacos are probably filled with Chinesey stuff." Henry snapped.
"Hey, you wanted to come here." Gage said
The waitress came over to our table and asked,"Whaat do yoou want to order?"
"Food." Gage answered.
"More specific pleeease."
"Orange chicken, wonton soup, tacos, and uh, more food." Gage said.
The waitress gave Gage gave a weird look, before walking off.
"Henry, don't piss the waitress off. She might force feed you garlic." Gage whispered to Henry.
"Garlic is just some stupid spice everyone hates." Henry replied.
"...True."
"If you guys don't shut up I will force feed both of you garlic."
"NO!" they said in unison.
"Your foooood." the server said as she placed down the steaming plates.
Gage eagerly grabbed his tacos. He bit one open and stared at it openmouthed. I bit back a giggle as he showed me his taco. It was filled with rice and orange chicken.
Henry laughed out loud. "Told you so." he said in a haughty tone.
"I thought you were joking!" Gage protested.
I reached for the plate of orange chicken. I took a bite and made a face expecting it to taste bad. It actually tasted good, with a hint of out-of-place spice.
Henry made a face.
"See what I mean?" he said.
I scowled and said back, "Don't make me shove this down your throat."
He looked horrified and I held in a grin. I knew what the spice was, garlic. Really? Henry, afraid of a little garlic? Doesn't seem right. Does garlic really affect vampires?
"No, I'm just allergic to it." Henry said.
"And next I expect you to say you can't look in a mirror because you don't see your reflection." I joked.
"Ha-ha." Was all that Henry said.
"This isn't that bad." Gage and I said at the same time.
Kade remained silent. I looked at him, to see his skin pale, as he moved his food around the plate, but not eating it.
"It won't kill you, you baby." Gage snapped.
"You sure?" Kade asked.
I looked at him, eating another bite of orange chicken.
"Look, not dead." I mocked, sticking my tongue out like a four-year-old.
Kade shrugged, going back to playing with the plate of orange chicken.
"And I thought Gage was painful to deal with." Henry rolled his eyes.
Henry was nearly shoved out of his chair by Gage, who grinned. They shoved each other, until Gage, at last, fell out of his chair onto his butt. I leaned down, holding out my hand.
"Act like adults, not like four-year-olds." I ordered.
Henry and Gage replied with a meek "Okay." Before going back to their food.
"Oh my gosh, I made an important discovery that could change our lives forever." Kade finally announced.
That shushed Gage and Henry up; They looked at Kade, expecting something profound. Eh...They got close.
"What?" Gage demanded.
"Food...Is...Good!" Kade grinned, before going back to his food.
I covered my face to try to hide my giggling. Gage and Henry had hilarious expressions on their face, I was soon red before I could gasp for air.
"Same old, same old, huh Kade? How did the High Council deal with you?" I chuckled.
"Took days, I was worse than a black dog in holy water." Kade laughed.
For those who are less informed, a black dog is a demonic wolf-dog thing, like a banshee. Dump it in holy water...And it gets bad.
"Huh?" Henry asked.
That shocked me. Henry was the smartest of my human (or sort of) company. And HE was confused.
"Inside joke." I replied simply.
He cocked his head and simply nodded.
Gage put his hand over his mouth in mock shock.
"The great and mighty Henry doesn't what a black dog is?" he said in a gasp.
Henry slugged him on the arm and Gage winced in pretend pain.
"Even I know what a black dog is. A dog that is the opposite color of white." Gage said in the most serious tone he could muster before bursting into laughter.
Kade cocked his head in actual confusion and I covered my mouth to stifle the string of laughter that was about to explode from my mouth.
"Hooow aaare youu dooing? Doo youu neeed aaa reeeeeeefilll?" the waitress said as she passed by our table.
Gage and Henry looked at each other and made a face to contain their laughter.
"No thank you, we're fine." I replied quickly.
"No, you need to speak her language. Noo thaank youu, wee're fiine." Gage whispered, mocking her tone of voice.
The waitress must have had very good hearing because she gave Gage a glare that could kill before taking our empty plates and walking away.
Kade was turning red trying to contain his laughter.
"We better leave soon. She might call the police on us.'We have some obnoxious idiots over on table three. Please handcuff them and take them to an asylum in top security. Double the guards on the one with the blonde hair.'" Henry said.
I cracked up.
"Aww...I was planning on sneaking into Aure's room in the asylum for some fine, raw se..." Gage pouted, trailing off when I glared at him.
I smacked Gage upside the head.
"Ow!" Gage cried.
"No, bad slave. Bad." I scolded.

After paying for the food, Henry drove us back. I was so happy Henry could actually drive, and HAD a liscence, because never again will I let Gage drvie me somewhere. We walked back to the dorm wing of the school.
"I'm telling you, vamps aren't allergic to garlic!" Henry argued.
"Oh really, then why are YOU allergic to garlic when YOU ARE a vamp." Gage said.
"Henny's right. I've known vampires who are ADDICTED to eating garlic." Kade argued.
"I told you, my name is HENRY, you idiot!" Henry snapped.
I stopped, causing the guys to walk into me. I spun around, the lecture in my head ready to come out.
"You guys, seriously, calm down. All you do is constantly hate each other, and I'm stuck in the middle of it. You guys need to put your differences aside, and stop arguing. None of you have friends, you only have me, and all of you think you're my boyfriend. You need to stay with each other and just discover things you guys can AGREE ON. People are out there, who want to kill me, and that very well may happen. So at least try and-" I broke off when I opened my door. Derek and Jones, Gage's goons, were rummaging through my lingerie drawer. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING WITH MY UNDERWEAR!?" I shouted, causing them to jump.
"What the hell? I told you just to...Ah..." Gage stopped himself when I realized they were doing what he told them to. I rounded on Gage.
"Hey, I didn't tell them to go through YOUR stuff, I told them to mess up Henry's stuff."
"B-but...We got distracted." Jones said, a pair of my lace underwear in hand.
"Give me that!" Gage said, snatching it away.
"Give ME that!" Henry said, grabbing it from Gage.
"WHAT THE HELL!? It's my underwear, unless you've been borrowing it!" I snapped, snatching it away.
"Out!" I shouted at Derek and Jones.
They scurried off.
I rounded on Gage, who gulped, running off.
"What just happened?" Kade asked.
"Gage sent his goons to destroy my stuff but got distracted since they have a MAJOR crush on Aure." Henry replied.
"They do?" I asked.
"Uh-huh." Henry answered.
"I officially hate Gage and his goons 1000 times more than before." I replied.
"Well...people can't really help but like you Aure." Henry said, looking at his feet.
I felt heat rushing to my cheeks. The moment was broken by a beep from the microwave.
I turned to see Kade pulling an old piece of pizza from the microwave.
"Kade!" I exclaimed.
He nearly threw the pizza at me in his shock.
"You just ate Kade!"
"I'm still hungry." he mumbled grumpily.
Henry coughed trying to conceal a laugh.
I glared at him and Kade took that moment to take the piece of pizza and stuff it in his mouth.
"Kade!" I scolded.
"What did he do now?" a voice said from the doorway.
I whipped around and saw Gage leaning against the open doorframe. He smiled apologetically and I scowled back. He shrugged his shoulders, not even trying to fight back.
"I just came to say sorry and to tell you that Mrs.Stalin wants to see you." he said.
I tried to keep my cool, but I was honestly worried. What was she going to say? Did she figure out that Gage was better and now I was just skipping classes? I don't want to go back to my classes, they're no FUN!
Gage raised an eyebrow at me, challenging me to chicken out. I huffed and stomped out, glaring daggers at Gage the whole time, trying not to melt under his golden eyed gaze. I saw Henry give me a thumbs up out
